Making It Big! // Uma Musume: Pretty Derby Fanfiction

Glorious Victory

Hello! It's been a while since I updated this! I'm really sorry but I just finished writing my other book and am working on a new one. I'll try to be more consistent!

🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁

After the race and accepting the medal, Sunny Blaze jogged back to meet her supportive and excited team along with their trainer.

“You did great, Blaze-Chan!!!” Flash congratulated with a hug. “Fantastic indeed, Blaze-Chan!” Grass Wonder grinned.

Hishi Amazon gasped, “You have to show me your tricks out there, Sunny-Senpai!!” El Condor Pasa held up two fingers, “Definitely one of the best races ever!”

“Thank you guys, heh.” Blaze chuckled modestly.

Hana pushed her glasses up her face, “You did very well, Sunny Blaze.”

Sunny looked to all of them, “So what now? Are we gonna celebrate?”

The whole group paused, looking very puzzled at Sunny Blaze. Air Groove chuckled, “I think you forgot about something.”

Maruzensky laughed a loud, “Good one, Blaze-Chan!” El Condor Pasa snickered a little.

“What?! What is it? What did I say wrong?” Blaze interrogated. Hana raised her eyebrow, “Don't tell me you forgot about the after show?”

Sunny looked up, blank faced. “After show? Eehhhhhh!!! I forgot about that!!” She slapped her hands to her face and groaned. “I didn't practice last night like I was supposed to!”

Symboli Rudolf sighed, “You can't always forget about that. That's also an important thing in racing. You may be a good racer, but the horse girl on stage is also an important aspect of it.”

Sunny Blaze ran in to her room, she rummaged through her things in the makeup mirror. “Ahh, what song am I doing again??”

Flower Flash went to the chair and held up a paper, “It says right here.” She read it, “‘Catch the Victory!’”

“Vodka's song?!!” Blaze snatched the paper and read through it. El Condor Pasa beamed, “Oh I love that one!”

Blaze whined while stomping her feet, “I'm gonna mess it up!” Grass Wonder shook her head, “Nonsense. As long as you remember the lyrics and the dance, you'll be fine.”

“That's the problem. I'm a klutz at dancing!”

Flash chuckled, “Well, then you just gotta buck up and learn how to be an idol. You can't just stand there and sing.”

Hana shook her head, “She's right. And you have to be there at the dressing room so you'll be ready for the show. Go.”

“Yes, Trainer!”

With that, Sunny Blaze got dressed in the classic white, red and blue dress with the white boots. Her hair was fixed as usual, this time her ponytail in a bow.

On stage, Sunny fidgeted before the curtains came up. Stay Gold and Daisy Bullseye were at her sides in the same outfit.

Daisy didn't seem nervous at all. Then again, she looked exactly like the type to be a natural born pop star. She would probably be the next Tokai Teio with the attitude she had.

Sunny wondered how she could not embrass herself while still entertaining the crowd. Whatever. I've just gotta sing and put on a show.

Suddenly, the song started.

“Kitto tsukande miseru! GLORIOUS VICTORY” Sunny began in a strong voice. She decided to try the thing Flower Flash had taught her. She followed the steps as she remembered and winked at the audience, turning with the next dance move.

The crowd seemed to love it as they cheered at the three horse girls on stage.

Special Week and Silence Suzuka were watching from a distance with their Trainer. Suzuka seemed pleased with the performance, nodding her head to the beat.

“Ah, she looks so good! That's way better than how I did in my first concert.” Special Week admired.

Trainer noted, “She does look a little shaky with her movements, but she isn't bad.” Silence Suzuka watched, nodding. “At least she isn't embarrassing herself.”

Team Rigil was in the front of the crowd. Flower Flash and El Condor  Pasa were dancing to the music while some lip synced and others watched with a grin on their faces.

Hishi smirked, “Not bad, newbie.” Air Groove chuckled, “She's way better than you already.”

Hishi growled and hissed, “Hey!!”

Symboli Rudolf stood next to Hana, her arms crossed but she had a pleased smile as her trainer did as well. “She's going to be something great.”

Hana agreed, “Yes she will.” She looked back, “I just hope she stays on the right track to success.”

She spotted the members of Team Spica in the crowd. She guessed it was to see what they would soon have to face. Her new star. Once she passed the unranked races, Sunny would be racing against horse girls more like Vodka and Gold Ship. She would have to step it up.

There's still time to prepare her. Hana sighed, looking forward at Sunny Blaze and the other horse girls.

…

“Ahhh! I'm so tired!!” Sunny Blaze groaned, flopping into her bed. Her hair was damp from her shower and she was in her pajamas, ready for bed.

Flower Flash giggled, “You did run a race today.” Blaze sat up, “But I've still got so many more to do. And then the Horse Girl Taikyu is just around the corner.” She sighed, “Did you hear anything about our trainer entering me in it?”

Flash shook her head. “Our trainer doesn't let us know until she lets us know. But most likely since whole teams have to enter to compete. I hear there's some pretty good competition in Europe coming.”

Sunny Blaze exclaimed, “Europe?!”

“Of course. Horse girl teams from all over the world come to the Horse Girl Taikyu Competition. Last time 3 years ago, Japan got third place thanks to Narita Brian and Symboli Rudolf.” Flash recalled.

“Yeah, I remember that.” Sunny nodded. “Europe is our toughest competition though. How am I gonna go up against girls like that?”

Flash smirked, “Special Week won the race against Broye last year. She's from a little town, Hokkaido.” She crosses her arms, “Surely, we can win first place. We just need to train for it.”

Blaze pulled her knees to her chest, “That's true.” Flash flicked Blaze's forehead playfully. “Hey!” Blaze called.

“I know Team Rigil can win the competition, not only for us, but for Japan.” Flash encouraged, offering a carrot to Blaze. The brown haired horse girl snorted and took it. “Eating like this, we sure aren't!” she snapped into the carrot, munching on it

Flash bit into hers, “Come on, you won your debut! That calls for celebration!”
