Game Show Girl (1)
[At Chloe?s house...]
"Just five minutes until Try Your Pony Luck is on," said Chloe excitedly.
"You sure do love game shows and it?s easy to see why," said her mom.
"Of course it is because there?s always suspense," nodded Chloe.
"It?s mostly because it?s a risk," added her father.
"That?s part of the fun, dad," assured Chloe.
"What?s this you?re currently watching?" asked her mom.
"Filly Face-off. It?s a show where ponies answer questions and the highest vote on each answer given earns the points," explained Chloe.
"Sounds like fun," remarked her mom.
"It?s just about over though. The more fun game is on next called Try Your Pony Luck, where ponies try to win money and other prizes by taking spins at the game board," continued Chloe.
"Before I forget, this came for you, Chloe," stated her mother before Chloe opened it.
"No way, it?s a trip to Try Your Pony Luck in Chubbifornia," remarked Chloe excitedly.
"That?s really far away from here and we don?t have the money to take you," noted her mother.
"It also says that if by chance you can?t come there, they can come here by calling the number below. I?d LOVE it if they came here, especially since I?d still be with my friends," added Chloe.
"Well now that?s a better idea. I?ll give them a call," said her father before doing so.
"My one dream of being on a game show is about to come true," said Chloe before racing outside.
"Wow, Chloe. What?s gotten you so happy?" asked Mocha.
"Try Your Pony Luck, my favorite game show, is going to have a show right here in town," explained Chloe.
"That?s great news because you?ve loved game shows as far as we?ve known you," replied Mocha.
"Does it allow guests?" asked Ms. Sheila.
"Well I?m playing with two other players so I can?t take any of you but that?s okay. I wouldn?t be able to choose anyway," replied Chloe.
"Well good luck then. We?ll watch from the TV," continued Mocha. [2 hours later...]
"They?re here, they?re here!" announced Chloe.
"Congratulations Chloe. Are you ready to take part in the most exciting game of your life?" asked the announcer.
"You bet I am," replied Chloe confidently.
"Then let?s get this game underway," continued the host as Chloe takes her seat.
"I can?t believe I?m here," thought Chloe.
"In case any of you are unfamiliar, this is Try Your Pony Luck, where you will be earning spins to take to the game board you see behind me. However, it?s not just the money and prizes that are up there. We have a Cash Craver square up there too and if you land on him, you lose everything you?ve hoped to keep at the end of the game. How do you earn spins you ask? I ask the questions and right answers give you spins, 2 for being first and 1 for being second and third respectively. If you just by chance get your turn and you?re fearful of the Cash Craver, you can give one of the other players your spins but they are required to take them so be aware that they have an equal chance of doing well and poorly," explained the host.
"I hope I do well," thought Chloe.
"Are we ready to begin?" questioned the host.
"Yes we are," replied the players.
"Then let?s Try Your Pony Luck!" declared the host.
"Sounds a lot harder to win than it seemed," said Mocha.
"Chloe lives for these things though. She?ll do fine," assured Ms. Sheila.
"I hope so," replied Mocha.
"You can do it, Chloe," called her mother.
"Do your best," called her father.
"May the best pony win," declared the host.
