Rise of King Candy

Chapter 2

-Yay! Chapter two is here! Be prepared for extreme TaffyButter awesomeness. It'll give you the honey-glows.

Dinner at Tappers!

"Like, TurboTime Turbo?" Taffyta asked.

Turbo smiled mischievously, taking off his helmet and attempting to do the "Bieber flip": "Why yes ma'am!" he said.

But Taffyta didn't buy it: "Whatever, why are you here anyways?"

"Well, my game was just unplugged, so maybe you can help me...?" Turbo asked politely

Taffyta smiled evilly and whistled; a full-grown Devil Dog came marching into her bedroom. Turbo backed up: "What is that thing?!"

Taffyta giggled: "This is my little puppy, Twinkle."

Twinkle growled and slowly advanced towards Turbo.

"All I ask is that you hide me until I can figure out a plan!" Turbo pleaded.

"What kind of plan?" Taffyta questioned.

"Well, I want to get rid of Vanellope and take over this game...You could rule with me if you wanted to..."

Twinkle looked as if he was just about to pounce onto Turbo.

"That's enough Twinkle." The strawberry-themed girl said, patting the Devil Dog on the head. She looked up at Turbo: "I'll put some thought into it, in the meantime, my friend's gonna be back soon...So you'd better get out."

Turbo's face lit up with excitement: "I knew someone as smart as you would help me!" he said, rushing out the door.

Taffyta smiled and in a few minutes of Turbo's depart, Rancis stepped in the house: "Tank heavens! Taffyta, you're not insane!"

She stared at him for a few moments: "What do ya mean?"

"Well, earlier you were blabbering about root beer...and Tappers. Then you fell asleep in less than thirty seconds—not sure how...Anyways, do you still want to go to Tappers?" he asked softly, blushing.

"...Sure! I'll have a few root beers!"

Rancis smiled confidently: "And can I buy food with it! What's your favorite food?"

Taffyta thought for a moment: "Hmm, I kinda like spaghetti." she replied, then stood up "Do you want to go right now?"

Rancis looked like a dream just came true: "Oh my gobstopper yes!"

"Good evening kids!" Tapper called out when he saw them enter.

Taffyta glanced around; Rancis and her were the only people there besides Tapper.

"hey Tapper! Can we have two root beers and a spaghetti for here please?" said Rancis/

"Sure bud!" he replied, and in a few minutes Tapper came with two glasses of root beer: "The noodles will be here soon!" he said happily.

Taffyta and Rancis's eyes met for a few seconds, then Taffyta looked away as Tapper plopped the spaghetti down onto the table: "Enjoy!"

They both couldn't resist the urge to totally stuff their faces with the pasta. The pair told gossip about other racers, which Rancis seemed to be very interested in: "What about Vanellope and Swizzle?" he asked.

"Well, I've heard that Swizzle's cheating on her."

"Really ? I wouldn't take someone like Vanellope for granted!"

"I dunno, I think she's a jerk...always mean..." Taffyta said

"Vanellope's kinda nice to me though." Rancis replied.

"Maybe she likes you, do you like her?" Taffyta asked

"Umm,not really" he said, blushing again "Wow, these spaghetti noodles are really long." he said trying to change the subject.

"Yeah, I-" she was stopped, both of them were trying to eat the same noodle, like Lady and the Tramp style. Taffyta and Rancis stared at each other awkwardly. Even Tapper looked from his kitchen: "Uh, i'll just leave you two alone now.." he said trotting off to get himself a root beer.

"Should I actually do it?" Taffyta said to herself.

"Should I actually kiss her?" Rancis asked himself "I don't know how she'll react though..."

Tapper's door swung open and Fix-it Felix walked in: "Hello there Tapper! Can I have a-" Felix looked over at Taffyta and Rancis "Oh, uh..sorry..I-I'll leave.."

Taffyta bit off the end of her noodle: "No, you can come in! I Think that Tapper's in his kitchen."

Rancis slurped up the rest of his noodle sadly: "I was just a second away from actually kissing her...If Felix wouldn't have interrupted..." he thought. Taffyta grabbed his arm: "Come on!"

They danced and drank more root beer (at one point, they practiced Gangnam Style). Rancis and Taffyta suddently heard a loud crash, Vanellope bust through the door: "What are you two DOING!? The arcade's gonna open soon, and we've been looking for you everywhere!" she shouted.

Taffyta and Rancis laughed: "We're not on the roster, we can't be picked today!" Rancis explained.

Vanellope sighed: "That's not the point, someone's trying to get into my castle and into the Code Room! We need the people who are not on the roster to guard it!"

"Oh no!fudge! Turbo's trying to get into the Code Room!"
