Girl Power (2)
Earlier on Pudgyville...
``Everyone, can I have your attention please? The first bout of the Pony Pudge competition is about to begin,'' announced Sheila.
``It's going to come down to the tiniest fraction of an inch, Lance,'' answered Teddy.
``By the closest of victories, Melody is declared the winner of the Stretching Round,'' declared Sheila. *The crowd cheers and claps*
``Now it's time for round number 2. There are mats on the ground and when I say go, you're all to do crunches while wearing these Weight Paralyzing necklaces. Most crunches when time expires wins the round. Ready, set go!'' declared Sheila. *The group gets into position, then begins*
``It comes down to the four ponies still working as time ran out but who will it be?'' questioned Ace.
``You all worked hard but only one of you can win this round and it's.......Starlight!'' declared Sheila. *The crowd cheers*
``There's still one more round,'' assured Melody to herself.
``Round 3 is our last and most challenging round. You each have a latex suit in front of you and, when I say suit-up, you are to put it on as quickly as you can in the given time limit of two minutes without damaging the outfit,'' explained Sheila.
``Ooh, toughie here. I'd sure hate to be them because those outfits are pretty warm in there, especially given their body shapes,'' reacted Lancer.
``It'll look pretty hot from here too,'' noted Teddy.
``You said it,'' said Ace and Lancer.
``On your mark, get set, suit-up!'' declared Sheila before the contestants begin.
``It's a slow start but it's a tight outfit against a big body and they can only stretch so far,'' said Ace.
``Nuts, stuck at the waist,'' muttered Melody.
``Oh dear, this is a truly tough round,'' strained Sweetheart.
``Even sucking in my belly doesn't do enough,'' thought Bright Eyes.
``One minute left,'' called Sheila.
``Sweetheart is halfway in her suit and Melody is struggling at her waist but Bright Eyes is catching up too,'' announced Lancer.
``Almost there,'' grunted Melody.
``Phew, guess I'm bigger than I thought but I'm past my hips,'' sighed Sweetheart.
``It's always the hips, isn't it?'' questioned Bright Eyes.
``Thirty seconds remaining, thirty seconds,'' declared Sheila.
``Now just my front hooves,'' thought Sweetheart.
``Suddenly, Sweetheart is in the lead!'' said Teddy in shock.
``I think she had the least confidence after round 2 but may have gained more here ironically,'' added Lancer.
``Past the hips at last,'' thought Melody and Bright Eyes.
``Done,'' finished Sweetheart.
``Ten....nine....eight...seven...six....five....four.....three...two...one....time's up!'' proclaimed Sheila.
``So close,'' said Melody.
``Well we know who the winner is,'' added Bright Eyes.
``I couldn't get it past my hips,'' said Bon Bon sadly.
``Me either,'' noted Clover.
``We have our winner, it's Sweetheart!'' declared Sheila. *The crowd cheers*
``You surprised us all,'' noted Starlight.
``I truly did. I didn't even think I could do it myself,'' realized Sweetheart.
``You all did great in this competition. You're all winners so there's no trophy,'' commended Sheila.
``Way to go, Sweetheart,'' called Teddy running over.
``Gosh, Teddy, thank you,'' replied Sweetheart.
``I think out of all of us, Sweetheart is the real winner today,'' said Melody.
``I truly feel like a winner,'' stated Sweetheart.
