Author's Notes: Here is a story where Chick is actually a dad! Yes I know he doesn't seem the father type but first time for everything! Lightning is actually going to change Chick and possibly set him up with a lover. We'll see if that happens! Well read, review & enjoy!
It was a normal day in Radiator Springs and Lightning was racing at Wiley's Butte early that morning. Doc was watching him with his headset on and a fixed calm gaze on his rookie. Lightning was doing ok except for some mistakes that he never usually made. Doc heaved a sigh and corrected Lightning for the tenth time that morning.
"Gotta take it easy rookie around the turns. Your going around them too swiftly." The old Hornet continued to watch and suddenly his tank growled deeply in hunger. He hadn't eaten since he got up and he was paying the price for it...
Lightning narrowed his gaze and sped up a little more on the track. He muttered something incoherent to himself and suddenly swerved to the side with a yelp of surprise. Dust covered where the rookie skidded to but settled after a few minutes to reveal a very dusty and very annoyed Lightning.
Doc rolled his eyes slightly and decided to call Lightning in before his oil level dropped any lower from hunger "Ok kid that's enough trainin for now we'll work more this afternoon"
Lightning shook off the dust and followed Doc to the V8 cafe. On their way Lightning thought over his mistakes in his mind and got annoyed by it. He knew better than that! What was he thinking! The only good thing out of this was at least Chick didn't see him and taunted him. Ford knew he didn't that! Chick was bad enough taunting him at the track he didn't need him taunting him at practice too!
The older car and Lightning soon pulled into the cafe. It was quiet as usual at this time of morning. In a way Lightning actually liked this peace. It gave him a chance to review what he'd been taught and clear his mind. The peace didn't last long when the sound of a muffled roaring engine came up along with sirens and backfiring.
The navy car knew what that was...Sheriff was chasing a speeder again. his engine hadn't been doing so well since he's been refusing the checkups needed. What was so bad about it anyway? Doc made a desicion to give the old patrol car a check up whether he wanted it or not.
Sheriff gruffly came up with a familar green stock car Lightning knew too well...Chick wasn't at all amused. He lowered down eyes glaring the ground grumbling to himself.
The old Hornet gave a sigh and looked at Sheriff "What'd he do this time Sheriff..." Doc was in no mood for playing judge especially to a cocky stockcar. Lightning slowly drove up to the navy car's side with a raised windshield.
Sheriff looked at Doc and gave a gruff reply "Speeding, reckless endangerment and resisting an officer"
Lightning grew a smirk on his grille hearing the list Sheriff just gave. Doc looked at him who had one of those 'I know how to settle this' kind of gleam in his eyes.
The red stockcar whispered an idea to Doc quietly. Chick looked and slightly raised a windshield but didn't care all that much.
Doc soon grew a smirk himself agreeing to Lightning's idea "You may have something there kid"
The old Hornet soon looked at the patrol car "Round everyone up for traffic court."
