    Yadda yadda the usual peaceful day in your office at Tracen Academy as you work at your training regimen papers since you're a Trainer and blah blah blah when suddenly-

    "To-re-na-saaaaaan!" Taiki Shuttle, your trainee, burst into the office with a wide, happy smile, as she announced your title with a VERY thick southern accent. You could hear it in how she pronounced "Trainer" with her "Japangrish" accent, making the word come out as "torena." Anyhow, the rather tall, mighty Umamusume made her way into your office, seeming rather elated as her golden-blonde tail swayed. Perhaps she has an idea cooking in that brain of hers...

    "I was just scrollin' on my Umatube channel, bein' up to date 'n all, when one of my subscribers suggested that I go to this here "Southern Sharpshootin'" event that they're hosting down near some of the barns in the countryside! I think it'd be a mighty fine way to show off my amazing aim! Shoot, I'd even say that my hawk's eye is sharper than my corners!" Taiki gives an enthusiastic "whoop" and pumps her fist in the air, before her expression shifts to something more pleading as she claps her hands together and begins to rub them. You assume she was likely copying the "Japanese pleading/apologizing" gesture...

    "T-Torena-san! You gotta take me there! I'm sure all my fans are wantin' to see me turn up, and I'd hate to let a fan down, you know that!" Taiki's big, sorry blue eyes stare deeply into yours as she tall Umamusume continued to rub her hands together like she was seeking warmth. If you knew Taiki--and you knew her well--you would know that she never lets someone down, at least to the best of her ability. Her poor, big puppy heart just wouldn't let her live it down! So, you relent, and accept Taiki's proposals.

    Upon doing so, her mood flips on its head, and she gives you a large, bone-crushing hug, smothering you against her chest. "Aww, I knew you'd pull through for me, Torena-san! Here, I'll save ya the date!" Taiki grabs your phone and puts in the venue, date, and time of the event. "Alrighty! I'm ready to roll when that day comes, so you'd better be up bright and early too, Torena-san!"

    With that, Taiki left your office, already counting the seconds until the big event. Looks like you had a bit on your hands, now...

    Some days later, you roll on down to the venue; a barn that had been transformed into a fair-esque location, where numerous people, Taiki's fans included, all gathered to watch the sharpshooting competition. You look around for your trainee, when...

    "Torena-san!!"

    Taiki's voice calls out from behind. You turn around to catch a view of her. Apparently, she had chosen to wear her signature racewear (cough cough distracting cough cough).

    "Check it out! Ain't I just the spittin' image of a sharpshooter? Hehe, I wanted to show off my racewear for the fans so they can see me in some real action! Plus, it's real roomy! Helps with my aim and focus!" Taiki twirled her arms around above her head with a big smile, just as the referee for the shooting contest called over the contestants.

    "Oh, boy! That's me! C'mon Torena-san, you won't be disappointed!"

    And so, Taiki marched off to the posts, and waited for her turn as you came to watch with the crowd.

    "And now, with the famous Mile Champion amongst our competitors, is Taiki Shuttle! Is her sleight of hand as good as her powerful and bullet fast speed?"

    "You betcha!" Taiki grinned, doing a finger gun. "Just y'all watch me!"

    Taiki takes aim at the six cans positioned on a fence...

    BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG!

    ...In less than maybe two seconds, all the cans were knocked down.

    The crowd was stunned.

    Until they began to all roar and cheer for Taiki.

    "Well folks, you saw it for yourself! Taiki Shuttle has one eagle's eye!"

    Taiki celebrated, the Umamusume basking in the energy, before beaming at you and sprinting to deliver a crushing hug, seemingly oblivious to her Umamusume strength.. "Yee-haw! I did it, Torena-san! I think I really left all the folks stupefied, now didn't I?! I'm so happy, I could wrestle a bull!"
