My Life So Far

I was born in Cloudsdale, in the inner city where it was most prosperous. My mother was a scavenger who went into Ponyville to pick up spare water Ponyville had in their stock. My father was  well-known, used to be part of the Wonderbolts he was retired when they had me, my mother's name was LightFlyer, my father's name was SpeedFreak. They seemed to have no interest in each other, until you got to know them for who they were, and what they did didn't matter. When I was born I had a completely white mane, white coat, grey eyes,and strong wings. Today I have a pink and white striped mane same old grey eyes, and even stronger wings. My experience in flight was a tremendous one except for a incident that I will tell about later.  My first day in flight school had me pretty scared, until I saw a small yellow coated and pink maned filly who was trembling, she barely could stand if at all. I went over to where she was standing.

I said "Hello." she didn't even look at me "Hello? Are you okay?"

she responded with a quick "Oh,um,I'm fine. Thank you"

I responded with "Don't lie to me please."

"Okay...I'm kind of stuck in a rut here" motioning to her hooves in the clouds.

I took her hand and start flying upwards as best as I could putting all the effort I could into it. I looked down and she was out of the clouds alright, but 20 feet over the clouds. She was now holding onto my hoof as if her life depended on it. I quickly said "Sorry, sorry, sorry." I said lowering her down to the clouds. I put her down on the clouds, and said "Are you okay? I'm so sorry about that I guess I didn't my own strength."

"It's okay, you didn't mean it" she said with shy-ness in her voice

"my name is RegattaPlay, but you can just call me RePlay"

"Oh,I'm FlutterSh..." she said in a low voice.

"What?"

"Flutte..." in a lower voice.

"One more time please."

"Flut..." in the lowest voice of all

"Didn't quite catch that"

"Fluttershy! It's FlutterShy..."

"Well FlutterShy it's nice to meet you-" I said getting pulled away.

It was my coach beginning to saying "What in sam hay do you think you were doing?"

"getting FlutterShy's mind out of the clouds, or at least her hooves" I responded

"Well you did some dang good flying. Who's foal are you?" the question caught me off guard. "my dad's SpeedFreak,and my mom's LightFlyer"

"Oh, well that explains it, your dad was a fantastic flyer. I taught him I should know"

"Well, thanks, I guess I'll see you around sir" I said, and I went back to muck about with FlutterShy, finding out that she has never seen the ground, because she was scared of heights.

I inspired her to finally look down through the clouds, she looked down, and was amazed at how colorful it was. She then told me that one day she'll live on the ground and never live on the clouds again, I told her that if she was willing to do that, then she was a stronger pony than I. I then started to go on that I could never go on without my parents, and that I would never want to leave. we then said our goodbyes, and I went by to my parents, and the day started... Five years later.

I was now of Teen-age. Thirteen. It was the day I first found out I was interested in poetry, and literature. I was running to my flight class and tripped on one of my hind hooves. what I tripped on was a poem by the famous writer: 'ShakenStirred'. known by writing cross-eyed.

The poem read: "The day I see straight, I will see the world for what it is, not what it was, and find my destiny in my mind, follow my heart, and my journey will start, share it with my mate, without my bindings of sight." It was the first poem that I read, and got me interested in literature,but before I knew it. My cutie mark appeared it was a Quill with wings. I was so amazed that I got it. I started yelling, and running about the place yelling "I got my CutieMark!" Everypony applauded as I went by, and before you knew it I was out of breath, but let's just say I didn't make it to flight class on time that day. Months went by after I got my CutieMark, and now it wasn't such a big thing, but I still praised it every day I had it, until I was 15, but onto what happened.

I was after flight class and one of my "fellow" pegasus yelled "HEY! Replay bet you can't catch me!" I responded with "you're gonna eat cloud when I'm done with you!" Moments later we were in the sky. I was catching up to him fast. He was a strong foal but my wings were stronger. I was about to tackle him, but he made a quick turn up which I couldn't make, and ate the stone of a castle. I went through the part of the castle, and skidded across the ground I recognized the place it was Canterlot, and I finally came to a screeching halt. I laid there bruised, and bloodied from the crash.

I laid on the dirt looking up into the sky, then a green foal about the age of me ran into my vision yelling for help. He was a unicorn, a strong one at that. He then continued to scream, stopped to think, and picked me up onto his back and ran to the hospital, now my vision wasn't only blurred it was now fading and getting dark, I then repeated this to the green pony whom I was on "getting dark..." "just hold on you'll be fine!" he said running. We arrived at the hospital in only about three minutes "man you're fas-" then hacking, and sputtering. he ran up to the receptionist "this foal needs help!" he yelled setting me on the tiled floor. They then took me to the emergency room where they sewed me up and took me to a room where I then passed out. I woke up with the green pony at my side.

"I'm glad you're awake." he said with a perky smirk.

"You saved my flank back there, thanks."

"don't worry about it, my name is BrushStrokes, but my friends call me Brushie."

"well 'Brushie' it's nice to meet you I'm RegattaPlay, but my friends RePlay."

"what kind of a name is Regatta?"

"it means 'Original', and Play means well... Plays where people act."

"well it certainly fits your cutiemark"

"it's post to mean that I was good at flying and writing. What is your cutiemark?"

"it's a brush crossed over a pencil. it stands for my drawing ability." showing me his flank. it was just like he said.

"You use your magic to pick up the pencil, and brush?"

"mmhmm." he said while nodding his head "how do you pick up yours?" he asked curiously.

"With my magic. What do you think? I pick it up with my teeth, but enough of the theatrics. So, what's the damage to me?" I asked in an irritated voice

"Broken shoulder, a few cuts, and a sprained wing."

"That isn't to bad, I guess. If I can still fly then it doesn't matter to me." my parents then walked in the room. "Mom! Dad!" I yelped with excitement. My dad responded with a smile. My mom gave me a hug. "Ow ow ow." I responded in agony.

"Sorry, I forget that you hurt yourself."

I mumbled "stupid Soarin, and his flying."

"The doctors say that your gonna be in here for a few months then you'll be able to fly, but they don't know you. Know do they?"

"No. They. Don't" I said with a smirk appearing on my face.

My dad then turned to BrushStroke and said "Are you the one who carried my foal to the emergency room?"

"He's a tough one" Brushie said shooting a glance at my bandages.

"Thank you for bringing him here before something worse happened." They both shook each others hooves.

"I hope we see each other on better terms. I have to get back to class" He trotted out of the room.

I then hopped out of my bed, and I ran to the entrance of the room and said "See ya!" I then realized that I was up and about. I then proceeded to say to my parents "Those doctors lied." Within no time I was back at flight school, and visiting Brushie everyday.

Before I knew it I was Sixteen out of flight school now very adventurous this is my age now so my story is coming to an end. I'm with BrushStrokes one day and we get the idea to go and live in Ponyville, and see what's different than living in Cloudsdale and Canterlot.

"What do you think it would be like if we lived in Ponyville? Think you can handle it City-foal?" I said with a teasing voice.

"Could you live there? With your head always in the clouds." he added with a flourish.

"how about we both ask our parents, and if both our parents agree on this we'll find a place in Ponyville for sale and we'll see how long one another can last, but let us  set a ground rule. We can't sabotage one another."

"sounds fair. I'll see you tomorrow with an answer."

"as will I." We both headed off to await what was going to happen.

It was obvious what our parents said "No, that is final!" my dad said. Me and Brushie knew what we we were gonna have to do.

"Yeah, my parents said the same thing." said Brushie.

"You know what we have to do right?" I shot at him.

"We have to ditch our parents, and find the house that we're gonna live in, right?"

"Exactly." I said with a grin.

"When are we gonna leave?" he said with a puzzled face.

"We're gonna leave tonight, pack up whatever you can, but keep it light. remember all your money. We're going to Ponyville."

That night we both meet up on the trail, I had packed my vests, shorts, and some of my written poems. Brushie packed his art, and painting supplies. We made it to Ponyville in the morning. When we finally arrived with our bags on our backs a Pink mare greeted us then gasped, and the mare ran off. We both looked at each other and shrugged. We both walked around Ponyville greeting everypony that passed, and passed a few 'for sale' houses, but they weren't for us. We then proceeded to find a cheap house with two stories, lots of windows, a balcony, and a tall roof.

The owner was happy that we took it off his hands. He said it was haunted with a ghost. The owner was a 70 year old colt. We knew we couldn't  believe him so we took the house. Inside the house were chairs, sofas, and tables. The walls on the first floor were just shelves made of olive tree wood. "Well this place is comfy." Brushie said while jumping onto a sofa. I looked at Brushie very hard. We've spent so much time together I have barely noticed that he grew a brown goatee, and I know had pink stripes in my hair, and an odd interest in vest and shorts.

"Welp, time to go get some food." I said while opening the front door again.

"I still don't remember what you like. So I guess you'll have to come with me." I said.

"Argh, I hate it when you drag me to places." he groaned.

"Come on we can pick up some music, and a few books." I said trying to meet his needs.

He sighed "Well, let's go, and let us get some stuff."

We continued to go outside and buy a few things at the marketplace. We went home, and the pink pony was outside our house. When we continued to get close she began to sing a song and she made us a cake in a oven and shot confetti out of a cannon she called it "the party cannon". She said her name was "PinkiePie" we told her our names, and she said "see you around sometime Brushie and Regatta" then trotted off with a big smile on her face.

By the time Brushie and I were done talking to PinkiePie, we were barely standing on our hooves, we shuffled inside falling in the middle of the room. We got way more books and music than we needed.

"I'll...*huff* organize... *sputter*  the music" said Brushie.

"Books..." I managed to huff.

A couple of hours later we organized the books and music. Surprisingly the music and books took up all the shelves.

"Well, that wasn't too hard." Brushie said.

"I'm going to go to a clothes store. A few of my vest got tore on the way down here." I said looking through my luggage.

"Hurry back, we got some rearranging to do." said Brushie walking around the first floor.

I trotted off looking around Ponyville for a clothing shop, and I found 'Rarity's Carousel Boutique' "Rarity..." I repeated to myself. Sounds nice I thought while trotting into the Boutique. I entered in the store

"Hello?" I said.

"Hello" said a small cute voice from the other room. the filly then stepped into the room "Hi, I'm SweetieBelle, what's your name? I haven't seen you around Ponyville." said SweetieBelle.

"I'm RegattaPlay, but just call me RePlay, and you haven't seen me around because my friend and I just moved here today. Do you know where your sister is?" I said.

"She is upstairs making new dresses. Let me go get her." she said with cheer in her voice. She trotted up the steps and came down with a taller purple maned and grayish-white coated mare.

"Hello, my dear, my name is Rarity, what may I get for you today, and may I ask what is your name?" said Rarity.

"Yes, hello, I'm here because a few of my vests were torn, my name is RegattaPlay, my friend and I moved here, I'm Cloudsdale, and my friend's from Canterlot." I said while handing her my vests.

she started sewing up my vests, until she heard 'Canterlot'. "Canterlot! Maybe I can meet your friend sometime!" she said with a plea, and a squee.

"You'll meet my friend when I come next time, or maybe I'll send him over." I said.

"I would be very greatful if you did." she said as she started sewing up the vests again.

"Is their anypony here in Ponyville I need to look out for?" I said still waiting for Rarity to sew up my vests.

"Who have you met?" Rarity asked.

"I've met PinkiePie, and you so far." I stated.

"Well you should watch out for... AppleJack, RainbowDash, and FlutterShy."

"Fluttershy...Fluttershy! How many vests do you have left to sew up?" I said in ergentcy.

"Three, do you know FlutterShy?" "Childhood friends. Where is she?"

"at her house, go over the bridge, make a left, go down the road, take the second left, follow that and take the first right." she said making gestures with one hoof

"Thanks" I said running out the door then breaking into flight going to FlutterShy's house. On my way I spotted a pegasus practicing clearing the skies from clouds. "must be RainbowDash." I thought. I finally got to Fluttershy's house. "Fluttershy!, Fluttershy!" I yelled when nearing her house. she stepped out of her home, and said

"Regatta?" in confusion. I slowed down as I reached the front door.

"Fluttershy how have you been?" I said while giving her a hug.

"Oh, um, I've been doing good, you?"

"good, I knew you would've made it out the clouds." I said excitedly. At that point the blue pony that was clearing the skies came in.

"Hey Fluttershy, and who are you?" she said with a athletic cheer in her voice, then digust while looking at me.

"I'm RegattaPlay, just call me RePlay, I met FlutterShy during the first day of flight training."

"I'm RainbowDash, I also was FlutterShy's childhood friend, maybe we can race sometime, son of 'SpeedFreak'." she said determinately.

"Nice detective skills Sherlock, and that race will be soon, but I need to get back to my friend, let's continue this later." I said irritated. I turned to FlutterShy "Sorry about that Shy, do you still fly?"

"No, I don't, I never had strong wings."

"Well, I'm sorry that you don't fly anymore, I thought you could fly with us. Well see ya later." as I said flying away.

I got to the Boutique, picked up my vests, and went home. Brushie then nagged me about staying out too long, and I explained that I met FlutterShy.

"Really you met you old time flying buddy?"

"Yes, so how about that rearranging. I'm gonna starting writing a story about my life, when we're done." we arranged the first and second stories, and I began to write this piece of work. That was my life so far.

The End Of My Life

My heart was pounding, my head was thumping, and... "...Wake up..." ... I couldn't feel anything. "...Wake up..." 20 Minutes later  I was starting to be able to see, and feel again. Thank Celestia I'm not dead. "Please wake up..." pressure was on my chest, and a sobbing voice coming from what was on my chest. "This is all my faaaaaauuult!" It was RainbowDash! she was now crying on my chest. she pounded her hoof near my neck, I could feel my collarbone broken. It took all I had not to sputter, or groan in pain. In my pain I wanted to hear her confession on how she 'killed' me.

"I killed you... why did I have to kill you..." she couldn't continue, she was crying to hard, I guess this is my que. I sat up and hugged RainbowDash and rubbed her mane trying to comfort her sadness. She looked up removing her big violet eyes from her hooves, and she punched me in the nose. Then, hugged me with all she could.

"I thought you were dead ya big jerk." she said slugging me on the shoulder. I examined my wounds stretching every which way. I finally discovered the damage. My hind left leg was crushed, collar bone broken, broke my left fore-hoof, left wing, and a cheek bone. I limped to the hospital that brushie took me to when I last crashed into that damned wall. since it was summer sunset celebration everypony was cranky about the loud noises, but we had attracted a crowd of royal guards. They escorted me and Rainbow to the hospital, the desk pony who had once been there to admit me to the hospital has long been gone. Replaced by a younger pony. I was now admitted and in a green robe that matched the drapes. My vest, under-shirt, and  leggings were now nothing, but cloth on the floor. Torn, and rubbish. My worst nightmare came in the door, two faces I gladly would've loved to meet in my childhood, their face solem with anger, and betrayal. My mom and dad stepped into the room with one thing to do, and I didn't know if it was to punish me now in the hospital, or later at home. Brushie was about to come in, and then turned around immediately walking away. Figures as much of him.

I broke the silence with a greeting "Hi mom, hi dad." My father held a hoof to my mouth.

"Why did you leave us?" asked my mother seeming as if she were hurt, but I knew she was a stronger mare than that. I guess she was were I got my mind of drama.

My dad chimed in with "We're disappointed that you ranaway to live away from us... But" My dad stopped and punched me in the shoulder. "We're just messing with you son." my dad and mom started cracking up. Apart from me being the great actor in my family my parents did a great job. "Son we didn't really care if you moved away. We knew you would sneak out, we were 18 too once, and just as rambunctious. Son we're okay with you making bets with your friends about living yourself, and you bought yourselves  a house with I hope more than enough celery and apples. We came here to tell you this, and to help you with getting off of your feet." My dad ran his hoof through my shaggy hair, my mom gave me a hug. RainbowDash stepped in the room at this particular touching moment. she stuck out her tounge and pointed  to it. My parents lightened the hugs, and bristling. My parents greeted the blue, and rainbow pony.

Brushie peeked out the corner of the room, and said "Is it safe?".

My dad waved a hoof. "It's safe!"

He asked me "Is it safe?"

I said in a irritated voice "It's safe! Now come in here!"

He came in hesitant at first like it was a Sting Operation, then as he came in he started to trot with more ease. We all stood there uncomfortable and awkward. I broke the silence with a joke "so um... what did the bird say to the clam?...Not to be clammy but you're the pearl in my eye"

Everyone did a fake laugh... and went back to awkward silence. "Okay this silence is getting booooring" said Rainbow Dash with her head on my bed.

"I concur" I said relaxed on the pillow.

"Same" said Brushie

Rainbow Dash always had a relaxing effect on everyone if the grumpiest of ponies, just like Pinkie Pie did. My parents were always jokers so when they were around people they were at their best, or at least trying to be, but I guess today wasn't the day to be competitive since i got hurt. "Yes! silence is not very fun!" Said Pinkie Pie as she said busting through the doorway, along with a few other friendly faces. "Don't you all have a party to go to?" I asked out of my crowded room filled with all types of colorful ponies. "Oh my gosh, you're right! I can't miss a party, that would would go on my permanent party record!" PinkiePie said pulling a pair of glasses out of seemingly non-existent pockets along with a folder of a baige-ish color. "Come on, everypony! We have a party to go to!" said PinkiePie trying to push everypony except my mom and my dad out the door at once. "Well... it's seems that me and your mother must go, out coach is calling for us, literally!" My dad send putting a hoof next to his ear. "I'll see you guys on the battlefield sometime then ." I said while saluting, but accidently hitting my eye which in turn destroyed my vision for a few seconds.

I snuggled into my covers, and muttered to myself "I better get comfy, I'll be a while"

The End~

My Life Right Now

"Hey Regatta!" I heard Brushie say from the balcony "Stop writing and come up here!" he was yelling so it had to be important. I trotted upstairs, and went out to the balcony. "You see that Carriage?" he said pointing to a carriage being pulled by royal guard pegasi. Inside the carriage was a purple pony hanging partly out of the carriage and what appeared to be a small purple dragon.

"Do you see that dragon and purple pony?" I pointed to the carriage.

"Yup, I think we might have a new pony in Ponyville looks like from Canterlot. Maybe you should greet her." I said while giving a devilish smile while nudging Brushie.

"Well, we're both sweet-talkers, eh? let's both greet her." he said while grinning

"Let's." I said while going down the stairs.

We met with the purple pony as she met PinkiePie who was planning to make a party as soon as she met the purple pony .

"Hi, i'm RegattaPlay, but you can just call me RePlay, and this is BrushStrokes, but just call him Brushie." I extended my hoof, but the purple pony smacked it away

"I don't have time for this, I've already met a pink disaster, goodbye." said the purple pony starting to walk.

The dragon said to us quickly "Sorry, she isn't very 'good' with other ponies. I'm Spike, and she is Twilight Sparkle. I have to go. see you around." he then quickly turned and went to go to Twilight Sparkle.

"Well, at least the baby dragon filled us in." Brushie said sarcastically.

"Well, let's go home I have to eat something, and I need some sleep, because I stayed up all night writing." I said after yawning.

We were back at the house in no time. I ate something and took a nap. I woke up 4 hours later, and Brushie was painting holding a few brushes in the air with his magic while holding a pink brush to the paper. Looked he was painting Pinkie Pie.

"Dude, why are you drawing Pinkie?" I asked still groggy.

"She's interesting bro, I'm drawing her because she was the first person I thought of." He looked out the window finishing the painting, and seeing a white pony with a blue mane and purple-red eyes.

"That mare... she's beautiful." Brushie said while dropping all the paintbrushes, and making a mess all over the floor."I have to go out their and talk to her before she's gone." he said running down the stairs. "Come with me!" he yelled opening the door.

"Nah, I don't think I got enough rest see you later, unless you strike out then, see you in a few minutes." I said looking out the window. "You better catch her, looks like she's leaving." I said still looking out the window.

He ran out of the house to the road, and talked to her for a few minutes. They both smiled he waved his hoof, and it looked like she looked back at Brushie. He waited there until she was completely out of sight. He sprinted back to the house.

"Bro! I found out who she was! People call her 'DJ Pon3' but her real name is 'VinylScratch' she's a DJ."

"Noooooo, really?"

"Smart plot." said Brushie.

"Oh yeah, I was supposed to send you over to the 'Carousel Boutique'."

"Do I really have to go to a dress store?" Brushie said as he complained.

I held up one of my vests with a wing."You think this is made by any girly clothes maker? This one wants to meet you, and bad." I said after lowering my vest back to the floor. "Her name is Rarity, and be nice. I'm gonna try and shop their tomorrow, but right now i'm gonna go to sweet apple acres. We need healthier food all we have is junk, and a little bit of celery."

"Yes Mom." he said rolling his eyes while going out the door.

I picked a map of ponyville. "A 2 hour walk? Well, they said nothing about flying" I snickered. I started flying to Sweet Apple Acres.

Through the fly RainbowDash came up beside me. "Well you aren't too hard to catch up to." Rainbow said trying to enrage me.

"Not today Rainbow, Not today, but how about tonight. Before the 'Summer Sun Celebration'. We'll have a marathon before the celebration in city hall, but right now I have to get some apples."

"You're on 'Regatta'."

"Now that that is cleared up can I go get my apples?" I said with a hint of irritation in my voice.

Rainbow backed off, but then came up closely to my face about an inch apart "You better hope your turning is better than when you were a foal." she said getting ready to fly away.

We looked at each other for what felt like a eternity. Then, out of nowhere she blew a rasberry in my face and flew away as fast as she could laughing as far as I could hear. I flew to the acres knowing I wasted too much time. when I got there a colt, a filly, and a mare were working on getting some apples for the farm.

The mare trotted up "Hello. What can I do for ya? I'm AppleJack. My sis is that filly over there she's AppleBlossom, but we all call 'er AppleBloom, and my big brother over there is BigMacintosh, but we just call 'em BigMac."

"Hi, AppleJack I'm RegattaPlay, but just call me RePlay. I'm here to get some apples."

"Well sir, you sure came to the right place, I'll get my granny and we'll sell some to you." she said while walking into a red barn house, and bringing out an elderly pony.

They sold some apples to me and they were all quality. I went home, and Brushie either didn't get back yet, or he went somewhere else. It was  now 9 hours before the 'Summer Sun Celebration', and 8 hours before I had to race RainbowDash. I thought about how me, and Rainbow were arguing, and about how sad it made FlutterShy. So I did what every good friend did, I went to FlutterShy's house to again apologize for me, and RainbowDash. Fighting always used to tear up Fluttershy in flight school. I flew there and when I finally I got there I saw a note on the door that said: Come back later, if that's okay." I groaned and turned around Pinkie was standing there with a really big gleeful smile. I craned my neck back while saying

"Pinkie what are you doing at FlutterShy's house?" I said through gritted teeth with a hint of fake smile.

"To get you silly filly." she said with the smile pasted on her face.

"Let's go we're gonna miss the party." she pulling and seeming to fly.

I looked at my wings and Pinkie was manually flapping my wings. We got to the library and she shoved me in explaining that the purple pony was coming. I saw a few ponies in the middle of the library with only the door light I took a spot in front of one of them. Twilight walked in while speaking loudly to her assistant

"...It's hard enough without some crazy ponies trying to make friends all the time! Where's the light?"

I saw Pinkie out of the corner of my eye reach for the chain. She turned on the light and there were many more ponies than I once previously thought. In the library now there seemed to be at least 100 ponies.

"SUPRISE!" they all yelled in unison.

"Suprise..." I said a little bit after everypony else.

Pinkie then started talking to her, but I couldn't see the rest because RainbowDash pulled me away; however, she told me about how she was gonna smoke me in the race, but that would be her downfall. She hovered away from me. I began plotting out the race, and then a light blue pony with a lyre for a Cutiemark bumped into me.

"Sssorry about that guy. I wasss just looking for my caramel colored friend, Bon-Bon." she was obviously drunk.

"wait, here I'll see if I can find her." I flew above the mosh pit that was this party and I saw a beige-ish pony with dark blue and purple hair. I floated back down to the spot where the light blue pony was. "She's right across the library, can't miss her."

"Thanksss buddy!" she said while pecking me with her lips on my cheek.

I then got my senses together and went back to plotting the race out. it was now almost race time. 30 minutes from now the rainbow colored pony, and I would be racing our hearts out to so who the fastest pony is. I headed over to the meeting point. now only 5 minutes til we raced. I began to stretch for a few minutes, and now only 2 minutes til the race began and RainbowDash finally showed up. She quickly limbered for a minute. only 60 seconds until we started. We both counted down from 10.

"10...9...8...7...6...5...4...3...2...1...GO!" we both started flying at full speed to a red flag to checkpoints.

about 59 minutes later we were at the Canterlot castle. only 1 minute until the summer sun celebration started and til we got to the 127 checkpoint. I was slipping behind and we were at the same wall I crashed into as a kid. the 127 checkpoint was on the other side of the wall. I was now following RainbowDash. it was 2 seconds from SSC and to get over wall took a second, but when you're behind it takes 2 seconds. Rainbow got over the wall fine, but I couldn't pull up it was happening like in my childhood. I crashed into the wall at full force...

To Be Continued.
