The next day, Everly headed to the stables. Where they had flying derby practice. Anyone who was competing in the race was here practicing. Everly saw Sofia and James practicing together.
"Hey guys." She greeted as she approached them.
"Hi Everly." Sofia waved.
"What are you doing here?" James asked.
"I'm here for moral support." Everly replied.
"Well, thanks." James said.
Everly watched the two practice. Sofia fell off her horse a couple times, but kept getting back up. This last time she fell off her horse, it took her longer to get back up.
"Are you alright, Sophia?" Everly asked as she and James went over to her and helped her up.
"I honestly didn't think it would be this difficult." Sofia said.
"Do you want to stop?" James asked.
"Not a chance." Sofia said.
"Why don't you guys take a water break and then go back to practicing." Everly suggested.
"Good idea, Eve." James said. "We both could use a break."
The three walked over to the benches.
"You should both just give up." Prince Hugo said as he walked by.
"Shut up, Hugo!" James said. "Why don't you just mind your own business."
"Just ignore him." Everly said.
A few days later, it was the day of the tryout race. The royal family was getting ready to head to the stables.
"Let's go." Miranda called to the children. "Or we'll be late for the race."
Those who weren't already waiting in the carriage, rushed along and climbed in.
Everly wished Sofia and James good luck before seating with the others.
The race started with Hugo in the lead and Sofia and James towards the back. But, they soon caught up to the others.
"Come on, Sofia." Everly said to herself as the riders got to the last leg of the race. Sofia and her horse, Minimus made it up and through the steeple, which they hadn't been able to do before. She and James finished in first and second. They all cheered for them.
"Congratulations, you two." Roland said.
"Why don't we go celebrate." Miranda said. They all agreed.
