Kris Kreamy: The Good Dictator Chapter 1: The Update
Author's note (gameprincezz): This is the first story I've ever co written with anybody, but hopefully it will still turn out okay. Also, I'm assuming you're curious about where the phrase 'good dictator' came from.
rose in the snow: Yeah I know why you're here. You saw the title and thought 'what is a good dictator?' Well it started when someone I know stated that she believed that there were bad dictators and good dictators. That one phrase turned into this story.
gameprincezz: With that said, enjoy the story! :)
It has been two months since Vanellope became the rightful ruler and the Core Four defeated the evil virus Turbo, who used to dictate the land of Sugar Rush. Currently, Vanellope lives happily in the castle along with her assistant, Sour Bill.
Vanellope woke up from her sponge cake bed with a grin on her face. "Today, I'm on the roster!" She yelled excitedly as she jumped out of bed and ran out of her room. She ran down the long chocolate-themed hallway to the big pink main room of the castle. Even though pink wasn't Vanellope's favorite color, she decided to keep the pink layout for the time being. But don't worry, Vanellope planned to change the theme to green. Along with the guards, she was searching through Sugar Rush and gathering any mint green-colored candy she could find for her castle. Eventually, she plans on having mint green on the interior of the castle instead of pink.
She ran over to her kart, hopped inside and drove out the castle.
'The arcade will probably open soon. I don't want to be late kicking the other racers' butts.' She thought as she started driving her kart towards the direction of the starting line.
As soon as Vanellope reached the starting line, she parked her kart and jumped out. Taffyta, Candlehead, Jubileena and Minty were standing in a group nearby the starting line.
From the corner of her eye, Taffyta saw Vanellope get out of her kart and yell over to her and Taffyta returned the favor, "Hey Vanellope!"
Vanellope turned her head and saw Taffyta waving to her. Vanellope walked over to the group of girls.
"What's up Taffy-talk?"
"I was just inviting you over to our group of friends. We were just talking about that there's a rumor about..."
Minty cut her off, "An update to Sugar Rush."
Taffyta turned towards Minty and with gritted teeth and muttered, "Don't interrupt me again, Mint. I was getting to that."
Minty, in fright of Taffyta, apologized, "I'm sorry. It won't happen again."
"Good." Taffyta responded before she turned back towards Vanellope. In a much happier tone she said, "There's rumors that if an update does happen, there will be new racers. But there's a big controversy in Sugar Rush wither the new characters will be boys or girls." Taffyta pointed to herself. "In my opinion, I honestly think and hope that the new characters are girls."
"Well, I guess we'll have to see if this 'update' is supposedly true." Vanellope said excitedly.
"The arcade is now open." An announcement from Game Central Station stated.
"Okay, I've got to go." Vanellope said as she ran back over to her kart on the starting line, waiting for a player to start any minute now.
"Quarter Alert! Quarter Alert!"
The gamer inserted two quarters into the fifty cents racing game.
The screen read 'Chews Your Racer' and the player picked Gloyd Orangeboar as their racer.
The race began along with the beginning of the day.
Many people played Sugar Rush throughout the day. But, as far as Vanellope knew, no one even mentioned an update to the game.
That was until the last gamer arrived. The last gamer was an eighteen year-old boy.
"Hey, ." He replied as he turned his head towards the old arcade owner.
"Yes, Peter?"
"I was just wondering...when did you say you were going to update this game?"
"Oh, Sugar Rush? Actually, I'm going to update this game tonight." He answered as he set his hand on the top of the cabinet.
"Okay." Peter said as he nodded and stood up. "I can't wait to see what's new. I guess I'll come back after the update. See you later." He said as he started walking towards the door.
While in Sugar Rush, Vanellope, along with all the other racers heard what said to the boy.
"We're getting updated!" Vanellope yelled as she jumped up in the air.
"Well, I guess we'll find out which rumors are true." Taffyta said with a slight grin on her face.
All the Sugar Rush racers couldn't wait until the update happened. All the racers continued talking about it until it was only a couple minutes until the beginning of the update.
"Prepare yourselves. It is going to be a sweet night!" Vanellope said excitedly to all the other fifteen racers.
" , the updating will start any moment now." A man wearing glasses said to the arcade owner.
"Okay, what will exactly happen in this update, anyway?" curiously asked.
The other man stood up from the chair that was a part of the racing game.
"The update will not have many new locations, but it will have new characters."
"How many? Who are they?" said anxiously.
The other man started to leave and said to his friend the arcade owner, "For now, I'll leave that up to you, Stan. But, you will find out for yourself tomorrow morning."
Mr. Litwak waved to the man as he watched him leave the scene.
'I guess I'll have to see for myself tomorrow morning.' He thought before he started to clean around the arcade, getting ready for closing time. Once he was done, he locked the arcade door and left.
As soon as he was out of sight, Yuni from Dance Dance Revolution yelled out to all the game characters throughout the arcade. "All clear, the arcade is closed!"
All the video game characters left their posts and decided to leave their games for the night.
Alongwith all the other characters, Ralph also heard Mr. Litwak and the other man's conversation.
'So kid's game is having an update. I wonder what's going to be new.'
In Sugar Rush, all the characters were in their houses sleeping. Every single character couldn't wait until morning when the update was complete.
Morning came sooner than they thought. The racers actually slept the whole night away, which rarely happened for any video game character since night was the time that they could do anything they wanted.
Vanellope eyes slowly opened when she saw light streaming out of her window into her room.
"Morning already?" She murmured. Then, she realized something. "THE UPDATE!" She shouted as she jumped out of bed and ran out of the room, through the castle towards the racetrack.
Sour Bill saw Vanellope race by him, "Vanellope?" He asked in a monotone voice.
Vanellope ran towards the racetrack and saw three new karts along with three new characters who were all girls.
"Hello, I am president of Sugar Rush, Vanellope Von Schweetz." Vanellope introduced herself to the three new racers.
"Hi. I'm Jessi Sprinkletop." A girl replied. She had long brown hair in pigtails that had light pink frosting containing rainbow sprinkles on top. Also, she had green eyes and she wore a dark pink racing jacket on top of her pink and brown striped shirt. She wore a pink skirt matching her racing jacket, chocolate brown stockings with sprinkles and black boots. She appeared to be themed after cupcakes.
Another girl replied, "My name's Nicki Doughnutty. I'm themed after donuts." She had chocolate brown hair tied back in a ponytail along with chocolate brown eyes. On her nose, sat glasses made out of chocolate. She had a tan shirt with a picture of a donut on it underneath a dark brown jacket with a different shade of brown on the edges of her jacket. She wore dark brown pants and had light brown shoes.
"...and last but not least, I am Kris Kreamy." A girl replied pointing to herself. "I'm themed after ice cream." She had light hair that appeared to be melting like vanilla ice cream. On top of her hair sat a cherry on top. She wore a striped light blue and white jacket on top of a white shirt with a design that looked like confetti. She had light blue pants with a scalloped edge that also looked like melting ice cream. Lastly, for shoes, she wore blue sneakers with white laces.
"Nice to meet you." Vanellope said politely to the new racers. "I've got to get ready for the arcade opening. As president of Sugar Rush, duty calls." Vanellope added while snickering at the last part. "Anyway, the roster for today already took place, so during arcade hours you guys can sit in the stands and watch the races for today."
"Okay." They all agreed and nodded their heads.
"Later today, you guys can wander around Sugar Rush and check this place out for yourselves. I've got to go and get everything ready for when the arcade opens soon. You guys can just sit there in the assorted fans section and watch today's races. I've got to go. It was nice meet all of you!" Vanellope added before she left.
"See you later!" Jessi Sprinkletop responded.
"Bye!" Nicki Doughnutty added.
"It was nice meeting your acquaintance." Kris Kreamy finished with before the three racers walked away towards the stands to watch the races for the day.
