"We've come this far, and we're not going to lose!" Ruby says to Swiper.
"Very well then, but you will lose!" Swiper is very confident.

GO!
( Swiper Race Music: /watch?v=59JFn4pyedM )
Max and Ruby drive off, but Swiper is just taking his time.
"That's right, keep on driving…" Swiper has an evil grin. When he picks up a present, he gets a jellyfish. He throws it at Max and Ruby, leaving him in first.
"Ow!" Ruby screams to the shock.
"So long, suckers!" Swiper drives off.
"We'll get him back!" Ruby drives and picks up a present, and is about to use it, but Swiper uses his special: Swiping Hand! A hand comes from his cart, and takes the present.
"Hey!" Max yells.
"Oh boy, for me? You shouldn't have!" Swiper opens it up to see a trashcan. "It wouldn't have helped you, anyway." He dumps it on Max and Ruby, gaining more distance between them.
LAP 2
"How about this?" Swiper lays Kitty Litter, which they run over and spin out.
"Not again!" Ruby screams.
"I'm just to goo for you! Ha, get it?" Swiper dumps goo, which also Max and Ruby run over.
"He keeps on hitting us with attacks! Max, what should we do?" Ruby asks Max for advice.
Max shrugs
"Oh no." Ruby replies.
"Oh yeah, did I forget to mention this track is filled to the brim with presents? That and my weapons are twice as strong!" Swiper hollers to them.
"You're cheating?" Ruby says in anger.
"Yep! Isn't it great?" Swiper asks with a big smile.
FINAL LAP
"Please Max, anything?" Ruby asks.
"Boost!" Max replies.
"Boost… that's it Max! If we can go fast enough to pass him, we could just maybe avoid his attacks!" Ruby says. Ruby zooms off at maximum speed and continues to collect gems along the way, making them boost continuously.
"What?" Swiper sees Max and Ruby pass him. "We'll see about that!" Swiper tries to hit them with an item, but they put up a shield. "Curses! Why didn't I take their item away again?"
"Alright, here we go!" Max and Ruby fly off of a ramp. Ruby begins to spin like a ballerina, and Max curls up into a ball and spins around as well. "For our special stunt, we call it: Discord and Harmony!"
When they land, they gain enough boost to finish before Swiper.
"No!" Swiper screams.
FINISH!
Winner: Max and Ruby
Loser: Swiper
"Fine, you beat me fair and square." Swiper hands over the trophy.
"You are a good spirit about losing, Swiper. I appreciate that." Ruby smiles.
"Thanks, but now I've got to go." Swiper walks off of the field, removes the stage, and walks out.
"That was close." Ruby said.
"Too close." Max adds.
"Congratulations for winning the Junior Cup, Max and Ruby!" A man in a green suit with a black tie, black hat, and blue pants. He has a funny moustache, too. "I am Mr. Nick. You two have been here at Nick for over four years! Seem old, yet?"
"No, I only feel a year older. I'm now eight, and my brother is turning four!" Ruby answers.
"Wow, Happy Birthday to Max! All racers may return to their quarters, and Ruby?" Mr. Nick still wants to talk to them.
"Yes?" Ruby responds.
"Now that you've won, you have three choices: You can either leave the stadium with what you have, stick around to see the other cups, or risk what you've got and try to go for another cup, but be careful, if you take the risk and lose, the cup you already have will be given to the runner up. So what will it be?" Mr. Nick asks.
"The races were a lot of fun, and we love every racer here! I don't want to leave, but we're happy with what we got. We'll stick around to watch more cups!" Ruby replies.
"Very well then. Since you've won, you will still be able to hang out with all of the racers and receive the free dinner. How does that sound?" Mr. Nick asks.
"Great!" Max responds.
"Alright, we'll see you next cup, coming soon! Who will be the next set of racers for the Rookie Cup? Tune in next time to find out!" Mr. Nick turns the camera off, and the day comes to an end.
