It's here! Yay! The first few chapters a slightly boring... this chapter is just about what's changed as this takes place 10 years after Carnivorous Addiction... give it a chance anyway, please? Because there's a sequel to this that's really good (going by the mental version...) For those who haven't read Behind The Wheel or Carnivorous Addiction, here's the basic story:

Susannah Mackay didn't understand the true meaning of Cars and so was sent to the Cars world... a lot of things happened, but she slowly found herself falling into a attraction toward Mater, once they had finally come clean to each other (a year after she first arrived) Susannah fell pregnant with twins (Mia and Duncan) once they were born, Mater and Susie got married, that's the main stuff, if I forgot anything, I'll add it onto a chapter where it's important!


Hormones

"Quiet…"

"Okay, quiet…"

"Slowleh drive toward 'er…"

"Okay, drive…"

"Step toward 'er…"

"Okay, step…"

"N' honk…"

"Okay…"

With a honk of Duncan's horn, Mia was pulled from her trance. She jumped in fright, turning to face him and wearing a frown she yelled angrily, "for the love of Chrysler, what do you want!?"

Her outburst only succeeded in making Duncan and her father, Mater, laugh even more.

"What's going on?" A baby blue Porsche Cayman S 2005 – better known as Susannah Florence Tow, Mater's wife – asked, driving from the house that the family had built after deciding that the junkyard was becoming too small to accommodate the four.

Mia sighed irritably, "nothing."

Susannah looked at her daughter doubtfully before sighing to herself, time seemed to have passed so quickly but Mia Jolie had grown into a stunning Porsche Cayenne S, inheriting Mater's luscious emerald eyes. Ramone had painted over her plain silver paint job to make way for her new overall colour of black, but from her spoiler, round her sides and meeting at her hood was light blue ghost flame, the main reason behind this was that she had acquired a taste for punk rock.

Duncan Alexander was like any other 15 year old Dodge Ram Pickup, always on the look out for a wife, unfortunately out of the five females that resided in town there was only two he could take interest in, his twin sister, Mia, or Lightning and Sally's daughter Adene, a 10 year old Ferrari F50 who had – unfortunately – taken a liking to him. He had inherited Susannah's gracious blue eyes but had his father's buck-tooth smile, after 15 years of living he still hadn't changed his paint job, he was still scarlet with two white stripes running from the front of his body to his back.

Even Susannah herself was changing. Her side had begun to rust (Mater was delirious about this, so happy in fact that he actually celebrated and was persistent that she didn't do anything about it, just let the chemical reaction between water and air continue). Also, she had become much more emotional, outside of arguing with Mia, she could sometimes cry for hours about nothing or something small ("yer pregnan' again, Susie!" "Mater, don't joke about things like that."). Out of the family, Mater was the only one who hadn't changed at all.

"Susie, are ya okay?" Mater asked, seeing the way she was staring at the floor.

She smiled looking up to her husband she answered, "yeah, I'm okay." She continued to make her way to her place in between Mia and Duncan.

"Hey, where's muh mornin' greetin'?" Mater asked teasingly.

Susannah revved her engine playfully, "you've gotta catch me first." Seeing that Mater was slowly driving toward her, she quickly drove away laughing.

"Oh please," Mia muttered in disgust.

Susannah and Mater dodged the on-coming traffic, quite a lot of the customers stopped to watch the couple with smiles upon their bumpers ("Now that's love," a few had muttered amongst themselves). Mater managed to catch up with his wife he was just centimetres from her when he clipped her tire with his bumper, she screamed as she lost control of her driving and was sent careering left. Just centimetres away from the wall Mater flung his winch at her, Susannah cringed as she felt it wrap itself around her rear axle. After a moment of being pulled back to him and recovering from shock she began to laugh, the two turned to face each other. Susannah let out a playful growl as he rolled closer. To Mia's displeasure, a number of customer's let wolf whistles slip their lips.

Mia looked around with her chassis low to the ground with embarrassment, "Mum!" She exclaimed, "don't embarrass me!"

After a moment of kissing, caressing bumpers and telling each other how much they meant to one another, Mater and Susannah began their way back to their original places at Flo's V8 Café.

"You'll be doing the same thing when your older," Susannah told her.

"No I will not," Mia said, sounding almost angry.

Susannah chuckled, "that's what I always said, but then I met your father. It took me a while to realise that Cupid had hit me." She gave a dreamy sigh as she looked at Mater, "I've never felt this way about anyone, but he was the best thing that has ever happened to me."

"Mum, you must love dad so much!" Duncan exclaimed.

Susannah sighed again, but this time there was hints of a chuckle within it, "I do."

"Duncan you've been hanging around Fillmore way too much," Mia complained.

"You'll be having the same conversation with your children sooner than you think, Mia," Susannah said.

"Mum, I've got my life planned out. I'm moving to LA, I'm gonna become an actress or a singer or anything which includes a get rich quick scheme, I'll live in a modern flat and I'm gonna stay single. No man or children required!" Mia told her mother.

"Okay, what about you Duncan?"

Duncan smiled slightly, "I'm gonna stay in Radiator Springs, I'm gonna find a girl, we'll get married and have a kid or two I'll be there during the deliverance cause I'll be the town doctor."

"That's muh boy!" Mater called happily.

"Thanks poppa!" He said back, copying his fathers' accent as appose from his usual English accent which he had caught from his mother.

"Oh for Chrysler's sake!" Mia exclaimed as she turned and drove back to the house.

Susannah and Mater exchanged glances before saying in unison, "hormones." A few moments later punk rock began to ring out around the town.

Just then two female Nissan 100 NX's came into view. Duncan gaped at the two before recomposing himself to say, "Excuse me," he drove over to them, staring all the while. Approaching them he said confidently, "hello, may I ask for the names of two fine women like yourself?"

"I'm Carmen…"

"…And I'm Nicola."

Duncan admired the two for a moment, "may I take you for a drink?"

The twins exchanged glances before leaving im alone in the road, Duncan done all he could… he watched them leave; only misery could accompany him now. He lowered his chassis to the ground in sadness as his dad came up next to him. "Aw, don' worry 'bout them," Mater said, trying to cheer his son up, "ya don' wan' twins anyway, way too much money fer the weddin'."

Duncan sighed, "But I want a girlfriend."

Mater looked his son over again, "I tell ya what, why don' we take a drive sometime n' I'll show you all the trick a truck needs tuh get a nice sports car, then we'll see what Nissan rejects ya."

Duncan rose onto his tires, "thanks dad."

The two drove back to the café as the cars began to throw insults at them. Susannah smiled, "Remember when we were in the position Mater?"

He parked next to her, "What do ya mean?" He asked, "Ya never rejected me."

She laughed slightly, "Only because I felt sorry for you."

He nodded, "course ya did, Susie."

"You wouldn't even get the courage to ask me out on a date, 'just to say sorry' the only one we went on. Just to say sorry my rear bumper!" Susannah exclaimed, everyone who heard this laughed.

"Mater frowned before saying, defensively, ""ya don' know how hard it is tuh ask!"

Duncan nudged his father while whispering urgently, "dad! They're coming back!"

Mater looked to where his son was glancing, "okay, the bes' thing tuh do is tuh crash intuh one of 'em…"

"Why not both?"

"Cause I wan' one!" Noticing the death glare he was being given by Susannah, Mater quickly added, "nah, jus' kiddin'. Once yer done that, ask 'er tuh take a drive tuh Wheel Well, it's up tuh you from there."

Duncan jumped slightly on his before slowly driving into the side of Nicola, "hey!" She screamed, "watch it!" He backed away and flinched at her angry voice, misery joined him again as he watched them drive away leaving him alone… Rejected, he thought, two times already today…

"Oh baby," Susannah whispered, rolling forward slightly, "came here."

But Duncan just drove to the house as he began to cry.

Sighing, Mater slowly began to drive away, "I'll go get 'im," he said.

Susannah soon followed, "I'll go get Mia."
