Grab Victory in the Sports Battle! Ep. 5
Mari
Now it's time for our final showdown, which will decide the victor of the sports battle!
Rina
Umā¦ I want to check on something.
Setsuna
What's up?
Rina
Right now, Eli and Rin are in the lead with six wins each, while Mari and Setsuna have five, Hanamaru has four, and I have three.
Rina
What happens if someone besides Eli or Rin wins this next competition?
Hanamaru
O-Oh yeah, zura. If Mari or Setsuna wins, they'll be tied with Eli and Rin. If you or I win, we still can't win the championship, zura!
Eli
In that caseā¦ How about we do this? Whoever wins the next round gets four wins added to their total. That means you guys could pull off a comeback and grab victory.
Mari
Nice idea! You're so smart, Eli. Let's go with that special rule for this last battle!
Rina
I could win! I'll do my best! Rina-chan Board says, āSerious!ā
Hanamaru
Yay! I have some hope now, zura!
Setsuna
If four wins are on the line, no one will end up tied for firstā¦ So this next one will truly decide victory!
Rin
And? And?! What're we playing for our final round?!
Mari
The final battle shall beā¦a pocketbike race!
[Fade in/out.]
Mari
Is everyone ready?
Hanamaru
That was my first time on a bull, and now it's my first time on a motorbike, zura.
Setsuna
It's so tiny and cute!
Eli
It really is. Once I got on it, it was even smaller than I thought it would be.
Rin
This'll be good practice for riding a bigger motorcycle someday!
Mari
The rules for pocketbike racing are simple. You go for three loops around the course, and whoever crosses the finish line first wins this game and our championship.
Mari
Whatever happens, this is itā¦ Let the final battle begin!
Eli
Let's go!
Setsuna
Whoa! Eli took off with a burst of speed!
Mari
She's trying to make a run for it!
Eli
This last round is the most important one. Since it's the final match, anything could happen.
Eli
Anything could happen, so I'm going to win this thing before anything does! A pocketbike race makes that possible! I think my strategy's allowed, isn't it?
Eli
Sorry, everyone. First placeā¦ The championshipā¦belongs to me!
Rin
Nooo! I'm not gonna lose! Wait up, Eliiii!
Hanamaru
I want a comeback victory and the special prize too, zura! Oh no! Whoa!
Setsuna
Oh! H-Hanamaru, you're wobbling so muchā¦ Are you all right?!
Hanamaru
I'm fine, zura! When I was little, people complimented my tricycle riding skills!
Setsuna
This isn't a tricycle, though! And you're about to go off the track!
Hanamaru
In P.E., we learned that if you want to pass, you should run close to the interior of the trackāAHHHHHHH!
Setsuna
Yikes! Hold on a minute! Don't come over hereeeee!
[Fade in/out.]
Mari
Oh my. Those two went off track all entangled togetherā¦ Take as much time as you need coming back now, ya hear!
