"Are we there yet?" Vanellope asked her Uncle Felix. It was summer vacation, and her father, Ralph, was at work. So Felix had decided to bring her to Litwack's Arcade. He had to fix a game there that was out of order.

Vanellope sat with Felix in his truck while he drove to the arcade. The windows were open, letting in a nice, cool breeze.

"Not yet sweetie, but we'll be there in a jiffy!" he said with his usual upbeat and perky demeanor. "Just a right onto Oakland Dr. and we're there!"

"Alright!" the nine-year old responded, nearly jumping up and down in her seat.

Even though it was only about a ten minute drive, to her it felt like forever. She was so excited to go to the arcade! She couldn't remember the last time she'd been to one.

"Ok! we're here!" Felix while pulling into the parking lot of Litwak's Arcade. "Be polite and don't get into any trouble, little miss!"

"Vanelly, honey, I'm gonna go over and talk to Mr. Litwak, ok? Just holler if you need me!" he said while grabbing his tools and shutting the car door with his hip.

"Okay!" she called back before the door closed. As soon as she stepped in the arcade, she heard the sound of arcade games and felt the breeze of the air conditioning.

For the fifth time in a row today, Rancis had gone undefeated at his favorite racing game at Litwak's, Sugar Rush. "Personal New Record!" he shouted in victory.

The raven-haired girl turned towards the game he was playing at. "Sugar Rush..." Vanellope mumbled, walking closer. Noticing it was a racing game, she grinned even wider, and sat in the empty seat next to Rancis.

Rancis turned and faced his new challenger, "Ready to lose?" he said playfully. "Hey, I haven't seen you around here before! You new? Well, you should know, I'm undefeated at Sugar Rush."

"Ya won't be undefeated for long!" she shot back with a smirk, inserting her quarters.

CHEWS YOUR RACER! the game announced. Vanellope instantly chose the racer with candy in her hair and a killer kart.

"Huh, ok newbie, let's see whatcha got!" Rancis chose his ususal racer with the peanut butter cup kart.

3...2...1... GO! Rancis shot off in the lead!

Geez, he's fast! Vanellope thought. She stepped on the gas pedal and tried her best to get ahead, but no matter how hard she tried, she ended up coming in fourth place. Aw, fudge! she scolded herself mentally.

"Hey! By the way, what's your name?" Rancis asked. This girl ain't half bad...

"Name's Vanellope. How 'bout you, blondie?"

"Hah, I'm Rancis. Wanna rematch?"

"You bet!" she responded, putting more quarters into the machine.

"Ok, I'll go easy on you this time... if you want. But just because you're new!" he said selecting his racer, not taking his eyes off the screen and blushing slightly.

Vanellope chose her racer as well, rolling her eyes, "Give it your all, or go home!"

"Whatever you want!" he smiled slyly.

3...2...1... GO!

Vanellope was prepared this time, and got herself a spot in second within the first lap.

Not bad! Rancis thought to himself, but seconds not good enough to beat me. ...Until she passed him within the second lap. "Oh what?" he took his eyes off the screen just for a second.

She glanced at the boy and smirked. "Told ya." and before long, she beat him. "Man, that's all ya got? A baby could'a beat you!"

"HEY! I beat you the first time! Rematch!"

A crowd of kids from the arcade started to form around the gamee console. Someone beat Rancis? That was unheard of!

"Fine! Whoever wins this time is officially the best racer of Sugar Rush!" she declared, looking at him in a threating manner.

"Fine!" his eyes narrowed. He couldn't let Vanellope win and lose his title! The kids around them started chanting for which ever challenger they were rooting for: the new kid? Or the long-standing champion Rancis?

She laughed a little, putting in a few more quarters and choosing her racer. "Ready to lose, scaredy-cat?"

3...

Rancis took his eyes off the new girl and shifted his foot onto the gas pedal.

2...

Vanellope narrowed her eyes.

1...

She stepped on the gas pedal.

GO!

And the two avatars zoomed off!

Rancis zoomed off into...second? What? How could...? How's that possible? Gonna have to use one of the power ups! he thought to himself. He pushed a bright red button to the right of the steering wheel and thick black sludge came spewing from the side of his kart.

"Shoot!" Vanellope exclaimed as her kart slowed down in the sticky substance. That let Rancis zoom right past her as she stepped harder on the machine's pedal.

Rancis was now in first again. As it should be... in his opinion anyway. But Vanellope wasn't too far behind.

Almost there... Vanellope thought. As they neared the finish line, Rancis was gonna win for sure.

BLEEP!

Vanellope used her power up, and her avatar glitched past the finish line! She won!

Rancis inhaled quickly and stared at Vanellope in bewilderment. He was speechless. Did that racer even have that powerup? How was that possible? A collective gasp could be heard from the crowd around them as well. Rancis had officially been beaten?

Vanellope stood on the seat and did a little victory dance. "I'M THE BEST RACER OF SUGAR RUSH!" she yelled as the kids started to cheer.

"Vanellope? Vanellope Silverman, what had gotten into you? What is all of this ruckus you're causing?"

Vanellope stopped dancing and turned around, only to find Felix holding his toolbox with a disapproving look on his face. "Heeeeey, Uncle Felix!" she said awkwardly.

"C'mon missy we're leaving. I'm finished here anyway."

"Please, mister," Rancis piped up, "she didn't really do anything wrong, we were just playing a game and it got a little..." he paused searching for the right words, "...intense."

Felix looked at the little blond boy standing next to the game console. He seemed to be telling the truth and honestly, pretty harmless. "Oh I'm sorry," he began a little sheepishly, "it's just that Vanellope needs to be home for dinner anyway."

The little girl hopped off of the chair and looked up at Felix with puppy dog eyes, "Aw, c'mon, one more game? Please? Dad probably didn't finish making dinner yet anyways!" she pleaded. She knew Felix probably wouldn't let her, but it was worth a shot.

Felix was always a sucker for Vanellope's puppy dog face, but he had to stay strong this time. "No, hon. Sorry, but your father is expecting you back home soon. Maybe we can come back a different time?"

"Fine." she said in defeat.

As her and Felix walked out the arcade, she shouted to Rancis, "Be here this Saturday for a rematch!"

"You got it!" he shouted back. "I'm always here!" he watched as Vanellope and her Uncle got in the pick up and drove off. Boy, he couldn't wait for this Saturday.
