Sweetprincess900045 and Avatar Eddy: Thank you, I'm glad you like it so far. The dialog between Rancis and Vanellope is actually what I struggled with the most.

Vanilla Butter 88, Smokescreen2814, and VickyT36: Thank you very much.

Bubblina Gumdrop: Not bad indeed. And we'll be meeting the outside help this chapter

A/N: Man, 8 reviews in the first chapter. This is so awesome. I'm glad you are all enjoying the story, but we're just getting started. This chapter we are meeting the so called "Outside help" the king mentioned. So without further ado, the chapter.


King Candy walked through the long, dark extension cord tunnel that connected Sugar Rush to Game Central Station. His journey would have been made easier had he kept the train car that ran to and from both destinations installed. But he also ran the risk of Sugar Rush being visited by unwanted guest.

You see, he wasn't really the king he looked to be. He was secretly a racer named Turbo from an unplugged game known as Turbo Time. To make a long story short, he got jealous of another racing game, tried to take it over, got both games unplugged, barely escaped getting out, and was now permanently outside of his game. He had needed to hide low for a while. So he entered into Sugar Rush, reworked the games coding, and dawned the disguise of King Candy. Keeping the train car installed would make it more likely for someone to visit and realize that King Candy wasn't really the ruler of the game.

He had concealed himself in a black cloak to disguise himself from any bystanders in GCS from noticing him. King Candy eventually saw the light at the end of the tunnel, meaning that the lobby wasn't too far off.

Sour Bill poked his head out from inside of the cloak's hood. He looked past the king's large head to get a better view of where they were. "Sir, where is it exactly we are going?" He questioned him as they exited the tunnel.

"Shhhh. I'll tell you after we arrive there." The king quietly shushed the little green helper, gently pushing him back into his cloak as they neared the gates leading out of the train station. As the hooded ruler crossed past them, an alarm sounded and the Surge Protector zipped in to do a security check.

"Name?" He questioned, staring at his clip board.

"McGuffin." King Candy mumbled, lying through his teeth.

"Where you coming from?"

"Sugar Rush."

"Where you off to?"

"…Tappers." he lied again.

"Do you have anything to declare?"

"That tie makes you look fat."

And with that, the Surge Protector flickered away, allowing King Candy to continue his trip through the crowded station. He scurried quickly past good guys and bad guys alike, still hiding himself and Bill in his cloak. The king looked around for the real game he was heading for. Tappers, Fix-It Felix Jr., Street Fighter 2, Frogger, Dig Dug, Mage Man: The Power Battle. And then he finally looked up at the flashing name display of the game he was really seeking.

Sonic Lost World.


(Sonic Lost World, Location: The Lost Hex)

King Candy walked through the colorful alien planet, taking in the sight of the lush green grass, the sparkling river that flowed nearby, and the deep blue sky. Being inside of a game where anything and everything was candy made it a bit difficult to adjust to the new environment, but he pressed on nonetheless. The king had pulled the cloaks hood down, letting him and his helper take in the fresh air. Sour Bill was now walking along side King Candy, trailing slightly behind him.

"So now can you tell me what it is you are seeking, sire?" Bill asked him, nervously glancing around at the new environment.

The king however, was more focused on what he was looking for. "My plan to stop young Rancis from being friendly towards the glitch. If he becomes her friend, it could eventually lead to him trying to help her race, bringing about our demise. I just need to find something." King Candy told the sour ball as he scanned the area.

"Those who come to the Lost Hex all find the same thing. Trouble!"

The two of them felt the earth they were standing on shake violently. After it stopped, King Candy turned toward the source of the voice only to be met with the sight of a giant monster standing over him.

The majority of its muscular upper body was pure red, along with a serpent like tail. His body from the waist down was black, ending with five sharp, cyan colored toe nails that matched those of his finger nails. The head of the beast was relatively small compared to the rest of his body as his lower jaw was sticking out, showing a row of spiked, red fangs. The upper half of his head is black, save for red markings around his eyes, which were purple with yellow scleras. Two large curved horns stuck out from the sides of his head, striped with shades of dark grey. The large unibrow and ponytail on top of the monster's head were also colored cyan to go with his nails. Ending all this off were the two rows of black spikes sticking out from its shoulders and the spiked wrist cuffs he wore.

While Sour Bill was shaking slightly with fear, King Candy just started to smile. "Ah yes. You are one of those Zeti from that evil group known as the Deadly Six. Just as I was searching for." The king chucked.

"You came here knowing what you'd find? You are either brave or stupid. Perhaps both." The beast examined the two figures before him. When his gaze met Bill's, the little sour ball ran behind the king.

"Allow me to introduce myself. I am King Candy of Sugar Rush, and I am your new master. I require your kind's assistance is a problem in my kingdom." He introduced himself to the Zeti, explaining his situation to him.

The creature looked at him for a moment, as if he were joking, then broke out in laughter at the thought of the short ruler controling him. "Ahahaha. You are, are you? You think you are able to command me? You and what army?" The red monster laughed, cracking his knuckles, ready to fight.

King Candy however didn't even flinch at this threat. Instead, his smile grew bigger. "Oh, just THIS army." He said as he reached into his cloak. He pulled out a large black conch shell covered in spikes and held it out, showing it to the beast.

This seemed to make him back down immediately. "Impossible. How did you…?" It began to ask, actually showing signs of nervousness. "I must resist." Was what the Zeti thought internally.

"…Get this?" King Candy finished his question, noticing his sudden loss in confidence. "Oh ho ho, I have my ways." He explained, examining the conch before he started to play it.

Sour Bill watched the creature as the "VVVVMMMMMM" sound of the shell filled the air. The Zeti began to tremble. Sweat droplets started to form on his forehead while he clenched his fist, trying to resist the noise. But eventually it became too much for him as he dropped to his knees and covered his ears.

The king noticed his submission and ceased the noise. "Had enough? I could do this all day." King Candy informed the red demon who was now on his hands and knees, panting in exhaustion from resisting the conch. The sugary ruler waved the shell in front of his face to show he would use it again if need be.

"NO! E-Enough, I relent." He said as he regained his strength. The last thing he wanted to hear was the sound of that shell, knowing full well that was the one thing that could bring his kind to their knees.

King Candy smiled in victory as he put a hand to his ear. "What was that? I couldn't hear you. I relent…" the king asked in a taunting manor. Sour Bill stepped out from behind the king cautiously, realizing that this monster was no longer a threat.

The demon sighed as he rose up. "I relent…you majesty." He grumbled in defeat under his breath.

"Much better. Now that wasn't so hard now, was it?" King Candy teasingly asked him, placing the shell back into his cloak. "And to think a mighty beast like yourself was brought down by a simple instrument." He chucked as the Zeti gave him a stern look. "Now then whoever you are." He began to instruct his new servant.

"I am Zavok, and you are correct about what you said earlier." The monster began to introduce itself. "I am the leader of the Deadly Six. We are a elite group of Zeti who strike terror into the code of all who visit this land, and leave destruction in our wake wherever we walk." He announced to the king.

But King Candy just waved him off like he didn't care. "Yes yes, that's very nice. As I was saying, I require your little group's assistance." He went back to instructing Zavok. "You are to gather up the rest of your kind and come to Sugar Rush and I'll explain more there." He finished, pulling the hood to his cloak back over his large head. Sour Bill climbed inside of the black disguise and they departed, leaving Zavok to analyse the situation that had just happened.

"We'll see who's chucking eventually." He mused to himself.


(Sugar Rush, Location: King Candy's Throne Room)

Back inside Sugar Rush at the king's castle, King Candy stood at his throne before his new servants with Sour Bill fanning him with a large lollipop. Zavok had done as instructed and gathered up the remaining five members of the Deadly Six, who were standing behind their leader, hidden in the shadows. "Now may you explain why is it you require our assistance, your majesty?" The red Zeti questioned as he crossed his arms.

"Very well my new servants, I shall explain my dilemma to you." King Candy spoke as he began to pace in front of the Deadly Six. "As ruler of this sugar coated kingdom, it is my job to protect all of its racers and citizens. However, there is always one problem that has endangered my people. And that problem is in the form of a glitch named Vanellope!" He announced as he pointed to Sour Bill who held up a picture of Vanellope, showing the Zeti their target. "Try as they might, my trusty security forces and guards have failed to catch her time and time again. She is quite the resilient one." King Candy warned them.

Zavok listened to the king speak through his lisp. "I'm sure she is." He said sarcastically, rolling his eyes. He couldn't imagine classifying anything in a world made of sweets as threatening. How dangerous could a little girl be?

"Recently though, one of my subjects, a young boy named Rancis, has made contact with the glitch." King candy went on. Sour Bill held up another picture to show the group. This time, of Rancis. "From what one of my most loyal subjects has told me, she has brainwashed him into helping her corrupt our game. So Deadly Six, I task you with finding the glitch by any means necessary, and bringing her to me." He finished, halting in front of Zavok.

The red Zeti paused before he started to speak. "You mean to tell us that you enslaved us, just to have us waste our time hunting for some measly little girl?" The leader questioned King Candy in annoyance, poking his large nose with one of his fingers.

"Exactly. Unless you'd rather I put on a show." King Candy smirked, pulling out the conch shell and pointing it toward Zavok like it was a sword. "Now get to it." He commanded them. The Deadly Six started to file out of the room when the king called them once again. "Oh, and if you should happen to meet that blonde child, bring him to me as well."

"Understood." Zavok nodded his head as the group left. "This is beneath us." He muttered under his breath once they were out of the king's ear shot.


(Out in Lollipop Meadow)

The candy meadow was crowded with the citizens of Sugar Rush, enjoying the day per usual. Some were playing catch with a gobstopper ball, some were running around and playing tag, while others were just lying in the sucker like grass and enjoying the sunny blue skies.

"Gloyd Orangeboar is like the best racer ever." Said a candy corn that was chatting with several of its friends

"Not even, Swizzle Malarkey could race circles around him." A jolly rancher spoke up next.

"You're both wrong. There's nothing better than Muttonfudge. Taffyta said so herself." A hearted lollipop replied smugly.

*THUD*

Just then, the ground that they were all standing on trembled, sending every citizen flying into the air. When they landed, they looked up to see a group of six angry monster glaring down at them. Most of the candies were shaking in fear.

"So, these are the civilians of this game. How pathetic." Zavok and the rest of the gang took in the sights of the frosting coated hills, the lollipop grass, and cotton candy clouds before they stared down at them.

"Oh! Oh! Let me at 'em, boss! I ain't seen no action all day!" One of the remaining five Deadly Six members stepped out of the shadows. Like Zavok, he was black from the waist down, wore two spiked wrist cuffs, and had a set of horns on his head. But this one was much different from his boss. The top half of his body was pink rather than red and his horns were striped purple and black. He was incredibly thin, with long lanky arms to match his slim figure. He wore a dog collar around his neck and a patch of spiky purple hair on his head. His large jaw hung open, revealing his sharp teeth and long, cyan tongue.

"Very well, Zazz. Tear them apart if need be to find out the location of our target." Zavok gave his team mate the go ahead. Zazz; always looking for a fight before he even knew what he was fighting. This is one trait that the master of the team seemed to like about him.

"You got it! When I'm through with her, she'll be limping for days!" Zazz cheered as he ran toward the candy fans, who started to scream and run in terror as the pink man's manic laughter filled the meadow.

"Succeed or fail, we'll learn something about our enemy." Zavok told himself as they watched Zazz run.
