(738,249 words total) Credit to - VathySkotadi on ao3 When Akko sees her first broom race in person as a child, she is awed by one of Earth's designated pilots for the Inter-Planetary Race, the Witch Chariot, and her broom-racer, the Shiny Rod. In that moment, she decides to become a Witch, like her idol. Akko's plans for this - through attending Luna Nova's piloting education program - may get thrown off course entirely, however, when Amanda's attempt to gain a position in the next IPR drags Akko into the Planetary Alliance's base on Earth. Thrown head-first into the biggest sports event in the explored universe, along with the rediscovered Shiny Rod as "best ship to ever exist," she'll have to face the other designated pilots of ten different sentient races alongside the rest of Earth's team: Amanda, Diana, and Hannah. Guided the coach Ursula, will Akko be able to win on planets so unlike Earth - ones that glow by night? Seem to be made of metal? That lack gravity? Will she be able to make friends with Diana? Will Hannah and Amanda ever stop fighting? With all the unprecedented happenings, will Akko be able to uncover the truth behind the mysteries surrounding this year's Inter-Planetary Race? There's only one way to find out!
