Chapter 1: Creamy Buttercup And Licortwist Hothead
Note: Creamy Buttercap belongs to Lord Candycane.
"Location: Litwak's Arcade, The World Of Disney, August 25th 2108"
It was a warm Saturday morning at Litwak's Arcade. Since it was the weekend, the arcade was closed until Monday, so the arcade characters were doing whatever they wanted to do.
In the fungeon, in one of the cells of the lowest level, a girl was chained up to the wall. The girl looked like a girl version of Rancis Fluggerbutter, except she had somewhat pale skin, light freckles on her face, light blue eyes, long brown hair, a brown outfit, and a brown butter cup hat that was identical to Rancis's brown butter cup hat. She just so happened to be Rancis's older sister and arch-nemesis. The reason that she was in the fungeon was because, back in November 21st 1998, she had tried to take over Sugar Rush while there was a Random Roster Race. However, Turbo, who had been ruling Sugar Rush at that time, the Sugar Rush racers (except Vanellope), and a couple of Oreo guards had arrested her and thrown her in the fungeon. She had then stayed in the fungeon up to that time.
Anyway, Creamy was trying to break the chains that were clamped around her wrists. However, they were too strong. She eventually gave up and slumped to the ground.
"Is this how I'm going to die? Am I just going to rot in here until the game get's unplugged?" Creamy wondered. She then thought "No. No, I'm not. It can't end this way. I won't let it end this way. I won't.".
Creamy turned her head to glance at her restrained hands, wracking her brain for any possible ideas that she could have that could help her escape. She slid back down onto the floor and looked around for anything that would be of use to her breakout. She turned her head a little to the right and nearly stopped breathing when her gaze landed on a rusted metal pin that sat on the ground a few feet away. She took a deep breath.
"Alright. Let's do this." Creamy murmured.
Creamy turned around so that she was directly facing the small piece of metal that was a few feet away. She slunk down to the floor as much as she was allowed to, stretching out her legs and desperately trying to clamp her foot down on her target.
Clamp.
Miss.
C-Cla-amp.
Miss.
C-C-Clamp-p!
Miss again.
Creamy let out a breath that she hadn't noticed that she had been holding, frustration creeping its way into her mind as she sat up to take a short break.
"Come on, Buttercap. You've got this!" Creamy thought.
Stretching herself out one last time, Creamy slammed her foot down, closing her eyes tightly as she did so.
Cling!
Creamy's eyes shot open.
"I-I did it! Yes!" Creamy hissed victoriously, her blue eyes shining with glee.
Creamy dragged the pin towards her. She picked up the pin and started picking the lock of the chains.
Ten minutes later, she heard a soft click noise, and the chains opened. Grinning like an idiot, Creamy broke free and threw the chains aside, quickly standing and rubbing her raw wrists.
"Creamy, your the best!" Creamy praised to herself. She then looked around and said "Alright, now to get out of here.".
Creamy started making her way out of the cell. However, she stopped when she saw that her cell had a blue forcefield that was holding her in. She got annoyed and started banging on the forcefield. However, she banged so hard that a little secret compartment opened up on the wall next to the forcefield. Inside were colored wires.
"Hmm. If I can rewire these, I can deactivate the forcefield and escape." Creamy thought.
Creamy tinkered with the wires in the secret compartment, and the forcefield deactivated.
"They don't call me a genius for nothing." Creamy said proudly.
Creamy then walked out of the cell and tried making her way out of the fungeon. She ran down hallway after hallway, turning corner after corner, hoping that she wasn't just running in circles, or squares, and praying that she could find a way out and get out. She didn't take in too much details of the part of the fungeon that she was in, other then the fact that it seemed to be made of metal, instead of candy. Creamy was too busy trying looking around to realize that she ran down a dead-end hallway.
"Darn it." Creamy muttered to herself.
Creamy started to turn around, but then she came across another cell. Out of all the cells throughout that level of the fungeon, that cell interested her because it was the only one that had an iron door, opposed to a forcefield, and it had an electric lock on it as well. There was a sign on the door and Creamy read the words.
"Licortwist Hothead. This lock looks new. Electronic too. Well, I'll just see what's in here and then continue trying to leave." Creamy said to herself.
It took him almost an hour, but Creamy finally managed to hack her way into the door. It creaked open with a loud mechanical echo. Creamy stepped to inside, and not much to her surprise, it was dimly lit and there was barely anything in sight.
While walking, Creamy didn't watch where she was going and bumped into someone.
"Ouch!" Creamy and the other person screamed.
Creamy groaned, looking at who she had just crashed into. She noticed that it was a boy that had pale skin, black hair that had red highlights, and dark red eyes, and he was wearing a licorice hat, a black jacket with red trimming, a black shirt that had red trimming and torn sleeves, black pants, and black boots. She also noticed that he was chained to the wall.
"What the heck is your problem, boy?" Creamy asked angrily.
The boy glared at Creamy.
"What's your problem, girl?" the boy asked, pointing his finger at Creamy.
Creamy had to admit. The boy had spunk. She liked that, but not when someone was using it against her.
"I asked the question first. I could have said that I was sorry if you didn't lash out at me." Creamy said, scoffing.
The boy frowned.
"What's your name?" the boy asked.
"Creamy Buttercap. However, the other racers call me Buttercap because I told them that I wanted to be called by my last name because it better fits my candy theme." Creamy replied. She then asked "What's your name?".
"Licortwist Hothead." the boy replied. He then asked "So, what are you doing here?".
Creamy frowned.
"I'm here because Turbo, the Oreo guards, and the Sugar Rush racers, including my rip-off recolor, Rancis Fluggerbutter, foiled my plan of taking over Sugar Rush back on November 21st 1998." Creamy replied.
Licortwist smirked.
"You had to deal with the Sugar Rush racers before?" Licortwist asked.
Creamy nodded.
"Yeah, that's right. Why are you asking?" Creamy asked.
Licortwist told Creamy about how he had tried to take over Sugar Rush during the previous week, on August 15th 2108. He then told her how Candi, Gloyd, Minty, Citrusella, Ralph, Felix, Tamora, and Turbo had stopped him, and how Vanellope had reset the game and locked him up in the fungeon. When he was done explaining, Creamy smirked.
"So, it looks like that we both have something in common." Creamy said.
"And what would that be?" Licortwist asked.
"We both hate the Sugar Rush racers because they've interfered with our plans of taking over Sugar Rush." Creamy replied. She then thought of something and said "Licortwist, I have a proposition for you.".
