I know I should be working on "War On The Race Track" but I've wanted to write this since I finished "When Hunters Become The Prey"

It's pretty much Vanellope's other plan she had for killing or turning some of the racers

Being honest when I wrote the prologue for WHBTP I still unsure which plan she should use

But since I loved both ideas I decided to write another story using the one that wasn't chosen in WHBTP

But on a quick note I'm going to only update "War On The Race Track" every Friday from now on since I want to take time and ensure that I post good chapters instead of rushed ones

So with all that out of the way I hope you enjoy this story

Ch.1 Night 1:The terror begins

(We begin 2 weeks after the end of the movie and they've been updated to have older character designs)

The arcade would close and the racers would catch a much needed breathe. "Great Racing today..." Vanellope would lean against her kart.

"You too Vanellope…" Rancis would takes his helmet off.

"Since the arcade is gonna be closed for a week we're going to wait for the next roster race…I'm going to head for the castle and rest for abit…" She'd leave and the racers would leave aswell except for Taffyta.

"Hey Taffyta you ok?" Candlehead would walk over.

"Yea I'm fine Candlehead…" She'd cross her arms.

"I see straight through those lies what's bothering you?" Candlehead would be concerned.

"It's something about Vanellope...she was way to forgiving even for her…I always think she's going to do something…"

"Is that why you haven't been sleeping well for the pass 2 weeks?" Candlehead would cross her arms.

"Yea kinda…I think it's just paranoia…it'll go away eventually…"

"Look…if Vanellope wanted to do something she would have already done it…but she wants to put that behind us…and so do we…the sooner we can get over what happened for all those years the better…"

Taffyta would sigh. "Yea…thanks Candlehead…"

Candlehead would smile. "No problem…"

They'd both get into their karts having no idea Vanellope heard their entire conversation through a recorder she put in their karts.

"Oh I'm no where near over it…you can't get over that…-she'd grin-…that's what makes tonight so special…" She'd watch Sour Bill walk into her throne room.

"Everything ready for tonight Bill?"

He'd nod. "Yes princess…"

Vanellope would rub her hands together. "Then I can't wait for tonight…"

(A few hours later)

Taffyta would sit on her bed while everyone else would already be asleep.

"Just remember what Candlehead said…Vanellope forgave everyone…she won't do anything…"

She'd hear the faint noise of a scream. "What the?" She'd look out her window and Oreo Guards entering the other racer's homes.

"W-w-what's happening?" She'd back away from the window when she'd hear Vanellope at her bedroom door.

"Oh…just a little something I've planned for everyone…"

Taffyta would turn around to see Vanellope grinning evilly at her. "W-w-what? Y-y-you s-said w-we w-w-were f-forgiven!"

Vanellope would chuckle. "I lied…believe me the only reason I've waited for 2 weeks is because I wanted you all in a false sense of security…and Sour Bill said modifications made in the game's code needed time…plus many other things had to be done to prepare"

"W-what have planned?"

Vanellope's grin would widen. "Oh…just going to show you all how it felt to be hunted down…" 2 Oreo Guards would rush in and knock Taffyta out.

"Good…bring her to the forest with the others…" They'd leave as she'd grin more. "Finally I don't have to wait any longer…"

(A short while later)

The racers would wake to find themselves in a clearing in Candy Cane forest. "W-w-what's g-going o-on?" Minty would look around.

Sour Bill's voice would play through an intercom set up in a tree. "You are all going to play a little game this week…"

"W-what kind of game?" They'd start backing away from the clearing.

"A game of hiding seek…now don't start running off…let me finish explaining…it may save your lives…so get back over here…"

The racers would reluctantly stand in the middle of the clearing.

"How it works is simple…" He'd read the instructions Vanellope gave him. "Every night you must stay hidden and survive from when the sun goes down at night…till it rises in the morning… you can hide anywhere in the game…but measures have been taken to avoid any of you leaving the game…"

"Survive from what?" Crumbelina would look around nervously.

"I'll answer that in a minute…" Sour Bill would clear his throat and continue. "Those who survive each night will get to have the day to themselves and be able prepare for the next night…those that don't…will only respawn here the following night…"

"Wait…when we're found we die?" Gloyd would look around having the eerily feeling they're being watched.

"The seeker determines your fate…they might spare you…they might not..."

Citrusella would back away from the clearing.

"And to answer your question Crumbelina…look no further then Citrusella…"

They'd turn and would see a sword go through her chest.

She'd look down as the blade as it'd be twisted then pulled out and she'd collapse to the ground to reveal Vanellope who'd grin then glitch away.

"And your time starts now…"

The racers would look around as they'd hear Vanellope glitching all around them.

"Fuck this I'm out!" Swizzle would take off and everyone would scatter as Jubileena would rush over to Citrusella and would be joined by Adorabeezle and Nougetsia.

"Stay with me Cit…common…" Jubileena would try to stop the bleeding as the light would slowly fade from her eyes.

"Jubileena…it's no use…she's gone…" Adorabeezle would put a hand on her shoulder.

"But we got to go…I doubt Vanellope went after the others…" Nougetsia would stand up.

They'd pull Jubileena up and take off as Vanellope would glitch in. "See ya tomorrow Citrusella…" She'd close Citrusella's eyes then glitch away.

(Meanwhile)

Taffyta would be running terrified when she'd suddenly be stopped by Gloyd. "Gloyd! Out of the way!"

Gloyd would cover her mouth. "Stop yelling and let me tell you why I did…"

Taffyta would stay silent when he remove a tarp covering a pit and pull out a hidden Cherry Bomb out of the ground.

He'd turn to Taffyta. "Know how 3 days ago someone raided my main item storage?" Taffyta would nod. "Looks like it was Vanellope…and she's using them against us…know what this means? Taffyta would ponder for a moment and he'd sigh. "It means that running without paying attention like you did is a sure fire way to get caught…"

"Ok…but I'd rather get moving I don't feel safe staying in 1 spot…"

"If we can't make it to the Junkyard we should be fine…common…" They'd both walk keeping their eyes open for more traps.

(Meanwhile)

Swizzle would be running as he'd hear Vanellope glitch nearby. "Shit she's close by…" He'd step right on a bear trap and would fight to contain his screams. "Don't yell…she doesn't know…don't yell…"

He'd hear someone approaching. "Oh no…no…"

His fear would go away when he'd sit Minty, Sticky and Torvald. "Hey Swizzle…looks like you could use a hand…"

He'd look down. "You could say that…but stay quiet…I heard Vanellope glitch near by barely a minute ago…"

Minty would take the trap off as Sticky and Torvald would keep watch. "So anyone got a plan?"

"How about leaving the forest to start? Vanellope is in here…so while she's focused on others we get a chance to hide somewhere else…" Torvald would state.

"Works for me…" They'd walk but staying watchful for Vanellope.

Farther away Candlehead, Crumbelina and Snowanna would walk out of the forest. "Where to next?" Snowanna would turn to them.

"I suggest we don't take our karts…she probably has ways to track us wherever we go with them…" Crumbelina would look behind them.

"How about Taffy Swamp? I doubt Vanellope would check there…"

"Sure…beats just standing here…"

They'd begin walking when Crumbelina and Candlehead would fall down into a pit.

"You 2 ok?" Snowanna would look down at the 2.

"No…Vanellope covered the bottom in concrete…and covered the wall about 5 feet up…" Crumbelina would respond as Snowanna would see Candlehead staring terrified at the liquid on at their feet.

"What's wrong Candles?"

"…..W-w-we're s-standing in a foot of g-gas…"

Crumbelina would stare back up at Snowanna. "Go get something to pull us out! But cover the pit first! We don't need Vanellope finding us in here!"

Snowanna would cover the pit back up. "I won't be gone for long…"

She'd take off as Crumbelina would turn to Candlehead who'd be shaking a little. "Everything is going to be fine Candles…."

"Still…I don't like this "Game"…I thought Vanellope forgave us…"

"Turns out she's a good liar…"

They'd both go silent in fear when they hear Vanellope walking beside the pit whistling.

Candlehead would almost scream but Crumbelina would cover her mouth. "Don't yell…not now…" She'd whisper.

"Wait…who moved the tarp?" Vanellope would kneel down beside the pit Crumbelina and Candlehead's hearts would begin to race.

She'd begin pulling the tarp off when something would get her attention and she'd glitch off.

Crumbelina would sigh in relief. "Now where the fuck is Snowanna?"

(A long wait later)

Snowanna would finally return. "Sorry about that…"

Crumbelina would glare back up at her. "Where have you been?"

"You should be thanking me…I saw Vanellope about to discover you 2 and I distracted her…"

"Then how are you still alive?" Candlehead would be curious.

"She saw Rancis going into his house…so she went after him…but I did manage to find a way to get you girls out…"

"Good…this smell is starting to get to me…"

(Meanwhile)

Rancis would be in his bathroom fixing his hair. "All I asked those bloody Oreo Guards was to not touch the hair and what do they do? They touched it anyway…" He'd finish and put on his hat. "Now there's perfection…" He'd stare at his reflection not even noticing Vanellope walking in through his front door.

She'd look around. "Geez…nice place…" She'd mutter as Rancis would walk to his stairs freezing when he sees her standing at the bottom of them.

"Oh hey Rancis…nice place you have…" She'd grin.

"T-thanks…I guess…" He'd back away from the stairs and she'd glitch to the top of them.

"Enjoying the game?"

"Actually I'm not enjoying this at all…"

Vanellope's grin would disappear. "Well that's just too bad then…"

Rancis would be confused. "Why"

"I was going to offer you a chance to join me and hunt the others…but since you do like the game I'll take you out of it…" She'd grin again as he'd gulp and back into the wall.

"No where to go now Rancis…" She'd put the tip of her sword to his neck.

"V-v-vanellope…w-w-w-we c-can t-t-talk a-a-about this…i-i-it doesn't h-have t-t-to b-b-be t-t-this w-way…" Rancis would plea.

"I know…but here's something you should know…I always liked you…don't ask me why but I did…and for some reason I always thought if anyone would care…it'd be you…since you never won a race and Taffyta and the others gave you hell for that…I thought…I always thought you'd feel a little how I felt everyday…but you never did…you always stayed by Taffyta's side…and everyday when you guys hurt me in every way possible…you always hurt me the most…"

Rancis would be silent for a few moments. "I-I'm sorry…-Vanellope would interrupt-…of course your sorry…you've only said that twice…the first time being when I became a princess again…the second time being now when there's a sword to your neck…"

"V-V-Vanellope…please…just don't do this!"

"Sorry Rancis…but this is for the 15 years of my life that you and the others turn into a living hell…this…is for pushing me to the point…-tears would form in her eyes-…that I jumped off Rainbow Bridge…" She'd slice his neck and he'd fall to the ground holding his neck as blood would pour out. Vanellope would kneel beside him. "And for the next 6 days…you'll get to feel some of my pain when you'd hunt me down…"

She'd walk away as he'd bleed out and die covered in his own blood that would slowly form a pool around him.

Sour Bill"s voice would be heard through the intercoms placed all around the game.

"3 hours remaining…Rancis and Citrusella have been found…"

(Meanwhile)

Snowanna would be pulling Crumbelina out using a branch while Candlehead would nervously stand and wait in the pit. "Could you hurry up? I don't feel safe…"

They'd hear Vanellope glitch nearby and Snowanna would let Crumbelina slide back down. "I'm gonna go hide in behind the trees…the second she leaves I'll get you out…" Snowanna would cover the pit again and hide behind the trees as Vanellope would pass by the hole.

"It's been moved again…" She'd place it back. "Wait…I'm an idiot…" She'd pull the tarp off and look down at Crumbelina and Candlehead and would have a wide. "Hey girls…"

Crumbelina would look up nervously. "Hey Vanellope…stop by to say hello?"

"Maybe…" She'd notice the branch beside the pit and would see footprints leading up a tree. "Let me guess…Snowanna was with you?"

"N-no…" Candlehead would nervously watch as Vanellope would pull out a revolver and point at the tree. "So you don't mine if I fire a shot at that tree?"

"No!" They'd both scream in unison as Vanellope would fire a shot that would go clean through the tree and would see Snowanna collapse to the ground shortly after. "Got her…"

Crumbelina and Candlehead would stare silently up at her.

"So according to Gloyd you 2 have a secret relationship…is that true?" She'd put her gun away and reach into her sweater pocket.

"Why do you ask?"

"Just wanted to know…I'm curious that's all…" She'd pull out a box of matches much to their horror.

"Vanellope…what do you want out of us? What will it take to get you to let us survive the last 3 hours?" Crumbelina would look up at her waiting a response.

"Tell me if Gloyd's rumors are true…and if they are…then kiss…"

Candlehead would look up. "They are ok? Crumbelina is just afraid people would be judgemental…it's like Adorabeezle and Jubileena! Adorabeezle and Crumbelina are worried while me and Jube don't give a crap what others think!"

"2 things…how did you find out about those 2? And also…how does Gloyd know?"

Crumbelina would sigh. "Gloyd found out about everyone through all the surveillance he does before a prank…he does so to make sure he know if he's pranking someone in a relationship or not…example if he pranked Swizzle Torvald, Minty and Sticky would gladly help him in getting revenge." Crumbelina would look up at her.

"So he told you that Adorabeezle and Jubileena were a thing?"

"No surprisingly Candlehead found out on the second day of our game's life…"

Vanellope would look at Candlehead dumbfounded. "And just how did you?"

"Well at the end of the day of racing I saw Adorabeezle paying a lot of attention to Jubileena who was dumping alittle water on herself to cool off…I asked her about it….she started blushing…and I kept going on until she told pretty much told me but swore the second I let it slide I'd regret it…"

"Hmm…interesting…"

"S-s-so will you let you put the matches away?"

Vanellope would shake her head. "Kiss first…and I'll consider it…"

They'd sigh and kiss each other for a few seconds then part. "Happy now?"

"Wow…I thought you 2 were lying…"

"Vanellope why would we lie about that?"

"I don't know…-she'd strike a match-…but sadly this is it for you tonight…"

"Why?!" Crumbelina would shout.

"Please no!" Candlehead would plea.

"Well you 2…sure you both were honest and did what I asked…but that really doesn't make up for all the torment and abuse you put me through for 15 years…especially you Candlehead…you suppose to be one of the more caring racers…but you made a big mistake by making me an exception…" She'd drop the burning match into the pit and would watch them burned. "Some may survive the night…but during the day when they see the bodies…that'll do a number on them…" She'd walk away.

(Meanwhile)

Adorabeezle would open the door to her home and walk in followed by Jubileena and Nougetsia. "We'll get Citrusella tomorrow don't worry Jube…" Adorabeezle would barricade the door.

"I know…-she'd turn the heat on-…but I don't get how you both have houses up in here and the freezing cold yet you keep the heat off…"

"We like the code…it's just part of our code Jubileena…" Nougetsia would shrug and get a soda as Sour Bill"s voice would echo throughout the game.

"Snowanna down, Crumbelina down, Candlehead down, 9 remain…"

"Crap…she's even taking out the one's in groups…" Nougetsia would drink her soda as the heat and power would go off but the A.C would turn on.

"Um…which one of you did that?" Jubileena would look at them.

"Actually that was me…" They'd hear Vanellope's voice outside. "I hope you like the cold in there…I'll be waiting outside when you decide to come out…"

"Oh no…"

(3 Hours and 55 minutes later)

It would be freezing to the point even Adorabeezle would be shivering.

"Sis…I'm getting cold…" Nougetsia would turn to her.

"Suck it up…Jubileena needs everything we have…-she'd turn to Jubileena who'd be shivering on her couch.

"Only 5 more minutes Jube…" Adorabeezle would sit beside her. "Nougetsia check if she's still there…"

Nougetsia would check the window when a shot would suddenly ring out.

"Nougetsia?" Adorabeezle would look over at her and would watch her slump to the ground.

"5 minutes Adorabeezle…but as you've seen for the pass 3 hours it's only getting colder…I doubt Jubileena can make it…"

"Shut up! She will!"

Jubileena would begin losing consciousness and Adorabeezle would hold her tight. "Come on Jube…not like this….don't leave me like this…"

Her front door would open and Vanellope would walk in. "Tick tock tick tock…still 3 minutes"

Jubileena would lose consciousness. "Please do whatever you want to me…just help her…" Adorabeezle would hold Jubileena tight as Vanellope would pull out her phone press a button and the heat would turn back on. "Deal…I'll have Nougetsia and Citrusella spawn here tomorrow…but when I'm going to come get you…I'm going to need your help with something…"

The sun would rise compeletly as Sour Bill's voice would be heard.

"Hunt over…survivors congrats…the next hunt commences when the sun goes down.

Adorabeezle would look up at Vanellope. "Help with what?"

Vanellope would grin. "You'll find out tonight…"

She'd glitch away.

"What did I just get myself into?" She'd ask herself.

End Ch.1

I hope you enjoyed the first chapter

But pretty much Vanellope's other plan was to put them in a dangerous game of hide and seek, with the twist being it happens every night…and who ever dies respawns with a chance of being killed again

It's dark I know, but if you've been here since my first story you know I write these kinds of stories

And for those of you that got confused when Vanellope mentioned jumping off the bridge to Rancis read my story "Driven Mad" and you'll find out

Now with all that said

I will see you all in the next chapter.
