Adora got through tryouts pretty easily. She was pretty nervous for her first pitch as she walked up to the mound. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She looked straight at the first girl up at bat. She stood tall with big, muscly arms and got into position. Her hair was shaved on the sides and the hair that was left was in braids that were pulled back into a ponytail. As the girl saw Adora glaring, she furrowed her brows and gripped the bat tighter to show she meant business. Adora let her nerves go for a moment to get in the best pitch that she could. She took another deep breath and pushed off the mound as she pulled her arm behind her and swung forward in a circular motion. As she let go of the ball, the batter swung the bat as hard as she good and just hit the ball. It went flying behind the base line making it a foul. Adora could tell the girl was frustrated with herself. The next pitch went easier since Adora was less nervous. The batter hit the second ball and it flew into outfield. The batter dropped the bat and started running. Some of the girls in the field seemed nervous and didn't seem to know what they were doing, but the girl from the locker room, Mermista, caught the ball and quickly threw it at Adora without seeming phased at all. Adora caught the ball and the coach yelled "Out!" The batter groaned and rolled her eyes as she walked off the field. The rest of tryouts went by pretty easily. Adora even tried at bat. She hit the ball and even got a couple runs in, but she new she was better at pitching. At the end, Adora felt good about it and hoped that she would make the team. Adora changed and got ready to leave, but she was stopped by the girl that was up to bat first.

"Hey um that was pretty good pitching out there." The girl tried not to look Adora in the face and Adora silently chuckled.

"Thanks! You're not so bad yourself." Adora lightheartedly laughed and tried to get the girl to look at her. The people on this team did not seem to be good at conversation. "I'm Adora."

"Lonnie." The girl finally looked at Adora and smiled. They walked out together and parted ways as they got closer to the parking lot. Before leaving Adora saw Mermista and smiled. Mermista just nodded and left, leaving Adora to herself. Adora got into her car and headed home.

Adora pulled into the garage and turned off the car. She went inside the house and immediately saw Spinnerella sitting on the couch with Frosta watching a movie.

"Hey I'm home." Adora said as no one was listening. She walked to the kitchen to get something to eat. She grabbed an apple due to the lack of snacks that Adora asked for. Netossa and Spinnerella always got what Frosta wanted. She walked back to the living room and sat on the couch next to Frosta and took a large bite of her apple.

"Why are you so loud?" Frosta put her hands over her ears and reacted dramatically. "We're trying to watch a movie here." Frosta pointed to the TV and Adora looked to see that they were watching Frozen. Typical. Frosta loved the movie ever since it came out and insisted on watching it even though the movie was over 5 years old.

"Stop you two." Spinnerella interrupted the kids and took her attention to Adora. "How was school?"

"Good. Tryouts went well."

"Oh yeah, I forgot about tryouts." Frosta had already paused the movie and left to her room. Spinnerella asked about Adora's day and told her about hers. Having the day off, Spinnerella spent her day cleaning and finished work that needed to be done. She even got to relax a bit before going pick Frosta up from school. Adora always loved to hear about Spinnerella's and Netossa's day. She wanted to ask Frosta about her day, but Frosta was never into sharing things about herself. Spinnerella and Netossa fostered Frosta first for about a year and a half before Adora came in the house. Adora always felt that Frosta hated her for that, but they seemed to get along just fine. After talking to Spinnerella for a bit, Adora went upstairs to her room. She remembered that she was sweaty and probably stinky to others and she started her shower. Adora knew that the results for tryouts would be on the school's website in a couple hours, but she already started to get nervous. She got in the shower and washed away all her worries while remembering the events of her first day of junior year. She was glad that she met new people that she hoped she could call friends. She remembered that they exchanged numbers and hoped that they would text her soon. She got out of the shower and dried her hair with a towel. She put on comfortable pajamas and got in bed to browse on the internet. Not even 5 minutes into browsing, Adora got a text message from an unknown number.

"Hey this is Glimmer." The text read. Adora immediately put the number into her contacts and texted back. Soon enough Bow was added and the three talked for a while. They talked about their favorite shows and what music they liked. Adora talked about tryouts and Bow and Glimmer talked about how they did nothing. It seemed like they had been talking for just minutes, but it has been over an hour and Netossa was already home and dinner was almost ready. Adora went downstairs and greeted Netossa before sitting down next to Frosta. They all ate dinner and talked about their days before all retiring to their rooms. Adora was tired, but still managed to stay awake to talk to her new friends. They texted all night about random things and Adora didn't even notice that she stayed up past 1 in the morning and didn't even get to see the results for tryouts. She said goodnight to her friends and opened her laptop to the school's website. She looked for the roster and saw her name under the 'pitchers' list. She was so excited yet so tired. She closed her laptop and laid down. She almost immediately fell asleep with a smile on her face.
