The Festival Tournament PT 3
Previous Chapter“Prince Blueblood is the winner” President Luna said as the stadium fell silent.
“Man I wanted to spar against Midnight” Sammy said as he slumped his shoulders and began to pout.
“Yea, I know how you felt. And I’m pretty sure everyone else wanted Midnight to win as well” Twilight replied.
“Hmpf, that sad excuse fore a stallion didn’t deserve to win!” Rarity added as she huffed and crossed her arms.
“He’s that bad huh?” Sammy asked.
“Oh you have no idea, when he asked me to the winter dance last year he practically ignored me and treated me like some kind of maid” Rarity replied.
“Well then don’t worry because he stands no chance against me!” Sammy responded along with a confident smile.
“Thanks darling” Rarity said.
“Darling huh? I didn’t realize you two were dating” Midnight teased after appearing behind Sammy, causing him to scream and fall out of his seat.
“Oh no no, I call just about everyone that...well except for Prince Bitchblood” Rarity explained as Sunset helped Sammy up.
“Oh okay and sorry Sammy, are you hurt?” Midnight asked.
“Heh I’m fine thanks” Sammy replied before being hugged by Midnight. “But Midnight I wanted to thank you for what you did all those years ago”
“Oh it’s no big deal, besides I couldn’t just let a kid be lost in the forest. Who knows what could of happened to you” Midnight replied as she looked up to Sammy with a smile.
“Um I hate to break up the reunion but do you mind telling us what happened?” Applejack asked.
“Oh uh sure, to cut it short I got lost when I was six years old because I saw a jackalope kit, after not being able to see my parents I kinda started to cry until I stumbled into a cave where Midnight found me and led me back to my parents before she disappeared” Sammy explained. “Speaking of which what were you doing in that cave and where did you go?”
“Well I lived nearby so I was just looking for rocks and well I had to make sure that I was back at my home on time” Midnight replied before giving Sammy another tight squeeze. “Not that any of that was remotely true, I just need his trust” She thought.
“Oh and is it okay if Midnight sits with us?” Sammy asked the rest of his friends who all nodded in agreement.
“Thanks!” Midnight replied before sitting down.
=================================================
“Alright everyone, Sammy Sparks and Prince Blueblood are up!” President Luna and Vice-president Cadence said as Sammy entered the field before Prince Blueblood entered who had a cocky smile on his face.
“Ugh even from this distance I can feel his god complex” Sammy thought and sighed as Prince Blueblood reached the opposite side of the field. “Based from what I saw from Midnight’s match I don’t think I’m gonna use my flames, or wings”
“Now then let round three begin!” President Luna shouted as Sammy manifested his scythe while Prince Blueblood’s hands were engulfed in blue flames.
“A scythe really?” Prince Blueblood sarcastically questioned.
“Yep, cause that’s all I need” Sammy responded as he slowly approached his opponent with the magi-weapon resting on his shoulder.
“Well if you get burned then that’s not my problem” Prince Blueblood said as he began shooting medium-sized blue fireballs at Sammy.
As Sammy walked towards his opponent blue fireballs flew passed him with the occasional fireball coming straight towards him which he effortlessly deflected with his free hand.
“Whoa he’s not even dodging it!” Midnight excitedly said as her and Sammy’s friends watched the match.
“Yea, he’s extremely strong. Even my plant prison couldn’t hold him” Applejack added.
“J-just as long as h-he doesn’t burn h-his clothes again...” Fluttershy added.
“You know to be honest I thought you would have been tougher” Sammy said as he was at this point about six feat away from Prince Blueblood.
“Don’t underestimate me!” Prince Blueblood shouted in anger before throwing several fireballs at Sammy who in turn evaded each one.
“Oh I’m not” Sammy replied before appearing in front of Prince Blueblood with the edge of the scythe pointing away from him but the spike on the other hand was three-inches away from his head. “Still I don’t know how Midnight could of lost to you”
“W-w-what?” Prince Blueblood questioned as he fell onto his rear as everyone else cheered while Sammy’s scythe disappeared.
With a sigh Sammy started walking towards the exit, leaving Prince Blueblood on the ground while the President and Vice-president announced his third victory.
=================================================
“Wow congratulations on winning your third match in a row!” Sunset texted Sammy as he decided to stay in the contestant area.
“Thanks, but to tell you the truth Prince Blueblood or as Rarity calms him Prince Bitchblood was weaker then a house fly...at least to me” Sammy texted back.
“Yea but I don’t know how he ended up moving onto match two” Sunset responded. “Oh and it looks like your last opponent for the tournament has been decided”
“JFC already? And I wasn’t even able to finish my doughnut” Sammy texted as he began to head towards the field’s entrance.
“Uh you know you can just eat it on the way right?” Sunset replied.
“Oh well GTG, TTYL” Sammy replied before putting his phone away and continued to eat his doughnut on the way to the entrance.
One short walk later…
“So I assume you’re Sammy right? Name’s Taylor Bronto” He said after Sammy rounded the corner to see a gryphon demi-human with caramel hair done in a quiff haircut style style, sea green eyes, light brown skin with bright orange feathers on his lower arms along with same colored wings and lion’s tail; he also wore a light bluish gray t-shirt with sand yellow pants, amethyst and white colored running shoes.
“You got that right!” Sammy replied after licking the frosting off of his fingers.
“Nice to meet ya, now then we shouldn’t keep the audience waiting any longer” Taylor said.
“You got that right, after you” Sammy replied before Taylor entered the field before Sammy did.
“Alright everyone! Third year Taylor Bronto has entered with first year Sammy Sparks following! Once the two are in place the final match shall begin!” President Luna and Vice-president Cadence called as the crowd cheered.
“Ready to lose?” Taylor sarcastically asked.
“Same to you!” Sammy retorted before fist-bumping his opponent and going to one side of the field as Taylor went to the other side.
“Now then let’s get this match started!” President Luna and Vice-president Cadence called.
