*this was requested :))))*
Sososo sorry if you requested and I haven’t gotten to it, I have been rlly busy. For this one I will maybe do another part of their relationship after Will is on the team. For reference, this is before Will was even a thought into roar lol
As long as Vineland can remember, Jett Fillmore has been the star of Roarball. No one could even get close to her. When she had the ball, she got into a zone. But she had never won a claw.. But then, a prize pony called Maine Attraction came into the game. He was..pretty good. He got a claw in his 1st year. Was Jett jealous? Probably. Would she ever say that out loud? Never.
He was younger than Jett, not by too many though. Roughly 5 years. That's what made it worse. After losing another game, Jett had been notified by Flo to report to a headquarters type of building. She didn’t even say what it was for. All she said was “be there!” As she sharpened her hooves.
Jett walked up to the doors. Heavy security was at the front. Looking around, she noticed animals being held back from entering the building. They all had magma shirts on and were begging security to let them in. Jett pinned her ears to her head. Not in anger but more in confusion.
The security stopped her at the door. They didn’t say anything. “Jett Fillmore..?” She said looking side to side at the two. “Flo just told me to come here.” She said, confused. Once again the pair of security stayed silent before opening the door and saying “floor 5 room 2” under their breath.
“Thanks.” She took one last scan at them before walking inside. This felt like purgatory. As she gon in the elevator her tail swished anxiously. ‘Am I getting fired? No.. Flo would’ve told me herself.’ She thought to herself. The stop of the elevator snapped her out of her thoughts.
She took a deep breath before entering room 2. Looking in there was…Mane attraction?! “Oh you gotta be kidding me.” Jett huffed quietly. “Woahohoho! Jett Fillmore in the same room as me?! I don’t know about yall but that just sounds like success to me!” He rubbed his hooves together, looking around at the other people in the room. Jett was utterly confused. Mane kept rambling about something.
“Why am I here?” Jett interrupted his rant. Mane plopped back down in the chair with a whinny. An African wild dog cleared her throat. “Ms Fillmore, please have a seat.” She said kindly. Jett sat down in one of the chairs across from her. “Who are you exactly?” She tilted her head at her before side eyeing mane. “My name is Milana, I am the owner of magma.” She put on reading glasses. Jett already knew where this was going.
“Does Flo know that this is what the meeting was for?” She scratched her head. Milana hummed before moving her head side to side. “I may have not worded it that way.” She put her paws together. “Look babygirl-“ Mane started. “I am NOT your babygirl.” Jett’s pupils dilated in disgust. “Look JETT. You and me could be beasts on the court! You wouldn’t have to worry bout a thing! We’d have more claws than anyone could count!” He said putting his shoes up on the table.
Just as he said that, Milana slid a paper with a pen across the table. Sure enough it was a contract. Jett looked at it and scoffed. “Yeah you must be out of your mind.” She said, getting up from her seat and leaving the room. She heard Milana call out her name after her but she didn’t listen.
Jett huffed in annoyance as she pressed the button to close the door in the elevator. A hoof stopped the door from closing. Mane shrieked as the door partially closed on his hoof before opening again. He leaned over too much and fell into the elevator. “Look man, I already told you I’m NOT interested.” Jett’s ears pinned behind her ears angrily. “Just…just hear me out!” He huffed, still clenching his hoof. Jett rolled her eyes before listening.
“Come hoop with me. I’ll show you how good I can be!” He exclaimed. “I don’t doubt that you're...decent. I just don’t have any interest in joining magma. And I’m quite frankly offended that you even think I would.” She looked him up and down before pressing the button to go back down. Mane huffed and the two stayed in silence as the elevator went down. As the elevator hit the main floor, Mane stayed in the elevator, probably going to go back to Milana.
“Jett you may not wanna join. But the way we're gonna play this season will have your whole team in shambles.” Mane said with a cocky smile. Jett looked back at him. “Sure you will.” She scoffed.
As Jett eventually made her way home, she couldn’t help but let her mind wonder. Did they really think she would leave the Vineland thorns for magma? Does Flo even know? Should she tell Flo? There was one thing though, she really did want a claw.
As the season went on her and Mane had this kind of competition within their games. This is the point where it became a hero game for Jett Fillmore. She would try to get all the points just for the love of the game. The competition. She’d be lying if she said she doesn’t look forward to rubbing it in Mane's face over DM’s that she got more than he did. A few DM’s turned into a 24/7 competition between the two.
They even got personal at times. They talked about their best moments in roar. They stayed this way throughout the season.
Tonight Jett was taking a personal night. By personal night it’s really just laying down without having to do anything. She went to lay down before a stinging pain went through her back. She hissed before grabbing onto the bed to stop her from falling. She groaned at the feeling. It seemed that as each season went on, her back got worse.
She kept one of her paws on her back as she climbed into bed and sighed heavily. Looking at the smaller pillow next to her, she started making biscuits on it, kneading it with both paws. She gave a slight purr.
That took her out of her element. Looking at her phone it said Mane was live. She looked at the phone with a slight smirk before switching her paws. One still kneading the pillow and the other holding her phone.
“Yo yo yo!!! It’s your boy!” He chanted. Jett knew that he was very cocky. She found it endearing in a way. “I’m finally getting braided! I been hearing yalls…hate on the hair soooo we are doing something different baby!” He smiled. “Let’s see who is up in here?” He said quietly to himself scanning the viewers.
“Ha! No other than Jett Fillmore herself!” He got close to the screen which fogged it up. That was Jett’s sign to leave. Her ears perked up and she immediately clicked the X in the corner.
The season went on. It was going great for Mane. Magma was already in the lead. Only 1 loss. The thorns on the other hand, had little to no hope. Jett’s team lost all of their focus leaving Jett by herself. Though, Jett did build that for herself. She has always been the star of the show and she likes to stay that way.
To make matters worse for Jett, they managed to scrape into finals. How is that bad? Well now they have to go against magma. Jett has to go against Mane. She didn’t fear him himself, it was more his team. Sure he didn’t have the best communication with his teammates but they still knew how to project a play.
Jett just hoped that it wouldn’t ruin anything between them. What do they have between them? Well. Jett doesn’t even know. But it’s something.
The whole day before the game she spent her time in her head. It’s the finals! She needs to redeem herself. Finally get that claw that she has been dreaming about for years! She prayed that the cards would be in her favor this time. Jett looked at her phone anxiously.
It felt like thousands of hours before the game would get here. When it did, there were thousands of doubts and faces being made. Jett wasn’t very good at pep talks. In fact her pep talks were more just her telling them what to do. She tried to shake off all of her negative thoughts and feelings. But deep down she knows they will stay
The game was…awful. The thorns could barely keep up to them. At the end of the 2nd Jett managed to scramble up points to tie it up. This was it. The final play.
Jett got the ball and was..actually being guarded?! She would’ve taken the time to admire it if it wasn’t in the middle of the game. She got in close enough range and jumped up to shoot. She’s got it! This is gonna be her first claw! As soon as she let the ball go, Mane's big hoof blocked the ball and he threw it to his teammate who scored. Magma wins the claw.
Jett hit the floor hard. It was for sure dirty. Ref was probably biased how they always are for finals. She looked up at the scoreboard with a look of denial. She really thought she had it this time. She saw Manes shadow infront of her. She half expected him to help her up, she reached her paw up. In response Mane pushed it away with a huff.
“You should’ve joined when you had the chance. Now look at you. Washed out.” He spat on the floor and neighed before walking to celebrate with his team. That was the last time Mane and Jett were ever on good terms. Whatever Jett felt or thought she felt was out the window. Mane began to fall into a cocky character. He wore thousands of chains and jewelry and acted too cool for roar and even his own team.
It baffled Jett to see how fast he was able to switch up the second he got his fame. But one thing was for sure.
She was never going to let anyone else get in her head just to leave her stranded.
