The Best of Octavia and Vinyl

"Here it comes."

"Not if I can help it."

"Oh. Oh! OH, there it is!"

"Not yet, it isn't!"

"She."

"No."

"Could."

"No no no no no!"

"Go."

"Hurry up, hurry up!"

"All!"

"Come on! Get there!"

"The!"

"No, not yet!"

"Way!"

"NOOOOO!"

"SCOOOOOOOOOOOOORE!"

"I was so close, too!"

"In your FACE, Tavi! In. Your. Face!"

"Rub it in, Vinyl. Rub it in."

"If you insist. Oh yea! Oh yea! Who's the greatest? Vinyl Scratch is, that's who!"

"Don't you worry, Miss Scratch. The game isn't over yet, and there is still plenty of time for this mare to make a comeback."

"Oh please, Tavi. You think you can handle this for another 10 minutes? I've always been better at this!"

"I have never quit because things weren't in my favor. And I have always come out the better for it."

"Indeed you have. Let's go then, but don't expect me to go easy on you!"

"I don't. It will make my win that much sweeter."

"Bring it on!"

The two mares struggled back and forth, each trying to achieving dominance. The mock battle went on for several minutes, but toward the end, it began to slowly shift in Octavia's favor.

"What the?! When did you get such good reflexes?"

"I've been practicing, Vinyl. Now eat the fruits of my labor!"

"I-it's not over yet!"

"Oh, I think it is, Vinyl. The end is so very near. And it will be my victory!"

"I can still hold out for a few more seconds...!"

"I don't think so!"

"Five. Four."

"Just a little more..."

"Three! Two!

"This is it!"

"OOOOOOOOOONE!"
