So, we might have known what the drill is in this one, and it's gonna be a good ending and not the one where someone gets shot in my other story called "A Sparking Relationship." Enjoy reading guys.
Family of Two.
Chapter 223: Wheels, Deals and Compassions.
(Royal Woods Go-Kart Track.)
A beautiful day for everyone there, and right now the folks are beginning to head to the bleachers to get ready for the race to begin, the Royal Woods Go-Kart Grand Prix.
The Loud family has arrived to the parking lot, and they all come out of their cars: Lincoln, Luna, Michelle and Delilah, and among them are Albert, Myrtle, Lisa and Lucy and they all see Agnes Johnson with her girls, Lola and Lana.
They see Luna's roadie Chunk is helping them unload the Go-Kart from the back of his van and the group goes to them. "Thanks for helping Lana bring her Go-Kart here dude" said Luna.
"All in a good days work, and I did help out with some parts to make this thing purr and rev like a real beauty, she wasn't easy to manage though." They all see the Go-Kart and they are impressed.
Now, they thought that for sure Lana would make some vehicle that is forged from scrapped parts from the trash, but this kind of Go-Kart is made out of recycled metal that Lana got from the scrapyard, and with some help it's turned into something awesome.
What's the Go-Kart called? Well, she isn't part of the Loud Family, so it can't be called Loud Lightning, so she calls it….
The Twins Track Wheeler – The metal has been welded to make a pod shape, the wheels are recycled from a motorcycle and a scooter for the front wheels, the headlights are from an old bicycle, the seatbelts are what's left from an old Family van and the engine is what was left of an old motorbike that Mrs. Johnson once had and… Wait, Agnes Johnson had a motorbike, once?
The whole thing is painted in blue and pink flame decals with a happy frog face in the front and patches of green spots and a flag sits at the back next to the spoiler, the spoiler is from some old SUV parts and the flag has the name of Lola and Lana on it.
They are impressed and so is Albert. "Dang, really does bring back the old days when I used to do Go-Kart's." Then he stops smiling. "Yeah, I lost. Many times."
Lana and Lola see the others and go to them and they hug each other. "We're so glad you all came!"
"Of course we came, we wouldn't wanna miss this big race that you two are part of" said Michelle.
"We might not be a family that was Loud, but we're gonna be there to try and support each other" said Lincoln.
"You're Go-Kart does seem impressive, and I assume that you two got some assistance in this creation" said Lisa. She sees the wheels are well-made in there. "Very impressive."
"Thanks Lisa. We got some help from mom and then Chunk came and helped us and now here she is, ready to race and ride through the track" said Lana.
"The weird part was, Mom used to have a motorbike" said Lola. They all look towards her, and Agnes blushes nervously.
"Well, I did do some crazy stuff back then and I swore that I would never, ever ride those things ever again" said Agnes Johnson. She then reminisces on her memories. "So many bad choices, and so many mistakes."
They all take one step away from her, then Delilah looks to the twins. "So, the two of you are gonna go out there right? I'm kinda surprised that Lola would wanna be part of this thing."
Lola chuckles. "Yeah, it is true that I wouldn't partake with whatever Lana has to do with cars and junk, and that I would normally rather ride on my pink car. But, times are changing and so I need to learn to change and adapt as well, and I wanna be there for my twin sister."
"This race is something Lana wants to try and win, and from what the flier said, this is for Go-Karts that were made by hand, and I wanna help her make this the best and special race of her life, and also her first race too. We're gonna win and Lana will get the chance to hang out with Bobbie Fletcher."
Lana smiles hearing this and she hugs Lola. "Thanks sis." Lola hugs her twin, and this makes the others "Awe" at their sibling bond.
Then Lincoln recalls. "Lana, you do realize that I can have a talk to talk time for you and Bobbie Fletcher. She's still a friend to me and mom, and we have her number."
Lana smiles. "Thanks Linc, but I don't wanna take advantage of what resources you got. I wanna earn this one." They then hear the announcer calling all the racers to come and get ready. "Looks like it's almost time."
They all head to the bleachers, while Chunk helps the twins bring the Go-Kart to the track, Lincoln looks to the twins and smiles. 'They're changed and I'm proud of them. At least this race isn't gonna turn into a bad news real fast, and I know that Lana will win this.'
They all don't know that Bobbie Fletcher was there and overheard this and she smiles. 'Wow, so that's Lana. She sure seems like the racing type and I sure am dang proud at the hard work she's put into this Go-Kart race she wants to be a part of. She reminds me of myself.'
(Later.)
"Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the Royal Woods Grand Prix, racers to the starting line."
The four Go-Karts make it to the starting line, but then Lucy notices something about the other three Go-Karts. "Wait, why do those look fancy?"
Lisa looks closely and scoffs. "A bunch of pathetic nitwits, those Go-Karts were bought, not made. Which means the dingus's who drive them are not good at reading, thus they would be lazy to even make their own Go-Kart."
Myrtle looks to the race rules from the flier. "They do realize that this means a total disqualification, right?"
"Then they are so in deep trouble" said Luna. They don't know that Stella, Hassan and Zach are there and have these remote controlled drones to record the whole thing, Mayor Davis chose them to help represent in using their own drones, but the racers don't know that.
Then they see the Go-Kart that was made by Lana, with some help from Lola, Chunk and they're mom Agnes Johnson and the Go-Kart looks like something no one has ever seen, even the announcer is impressed. But the other competitors laugh at it. But one Gi-Kart doesn't laugh at them.
Lola sees this and is upset, but she calms down. "Those bozos no nothing about Go-Karts, but we do."
Lana nods. "Yeah and…." She then looks to her twin. "You know something about Go-Karts?"
"I read the whole thing from the book we were using and learned the basic components and the history of the first ever Go-Karts and they were always and will be hand-made, because it's the right thing."
Lana smiles and high fives with Lana. "Dang right." Hops is also there and has a helmet.
The twins put on their helmets which are made from motorbike helmets with some pink and blue patterns and they're initials on them. The cool part, is that these helmets also have some rear view mirrors, just in case for any cheaters.
"And now folks, let's give a warm welcome to Racing legend. Bobbie Fletcher!"
They all see the brunette woman go on the stage where the winners would be, and she waves to the crowd with a microphone in one hand and the racing flag on the other, she spots Lincoln and winks to him, which makes him blush and chuckle nervously.
Luna notices this and chuckles. "Linc, remember Jordan."
Lincoln also realizes this. "Yeah, right. Sorry about that."
Lana sees the racer. "There she is." But then Hops uses his tongue to slap her out of her trance. "Right, right. Sorry, gotta focus."
Lola is confused, and has a small theory. 'Either she has a major fan girl vibe in her, or she has a major crush on Bobbie Fletcher. But that's something I am not gonna dig into, that's a Lana thing.'
The racing legend then makes the announcement. "Fire up those engines folks! First one to win this race is the winner!" All the engines rev up and get ready. "Now, on your marks, get set and go!"
The Go-Karts are off and they make it at good speed to see who could win, but then they are all outmatched when the twins drive by them with their Go-Kart and then Lola yells out. "This is what we get for making our own Go-Kart, by hand!"
Lana chuckles. "Easy Lola, we're not out of the blue just yet."
The racers in the silver Go-Kart nod and they push a button to let loose some oil, but Lola sees this through the rear view mirror on her helmet. "Oil!"
"On it!" Lana maneuvers past the oil shot and the oil hits the pink Go-Kart, Lana sees this and she uses her Go-Kart to keep the other one balanced and stopped slipping and the other racers gives them the thumbs up and so do the twins, it's better to help the others race and not get messed up so bad.
Then the yellow Go-Kart deploys a mirror to blind them, which Hops notices and Lana sees this. "They really wanna cheat don't they?"
But the Pink car blocks the view of the yellow Go-Kart and the two drivers gives them the thumbs up and this makes Lola and Lana smile. "Dang, looks like we got ourselves some allies, who the heck are they anyway?"
They can't see who they are due to the helmets and this pink Go-Kart doesn't look like it was bought, it too looks hand-made but not that fast.
Mc-Tracer Racer – A Pink and Lime striped Go-Kart, it may look bought from the mall, but it's actually handmade, they just did some alterations to make it look nice and stylish and the drivers are a little brother and older sister and they're helmets are the same color of their Go-Kart.
They make a hard right, they go up the steep track and speed up as they pass by an open field and then they traverse the muddy areas, and the two other Go-Karts are having a tough time driving which Lola notices.
"Those guys did not read the flier about what the track was gonna be, didn't they?"
Lana chuckles. "They were too busy being lazy and dumb! Now let's pick it up!" They pick up some speed and they are now neck and neck with the other Go-Kart.
But then the yellow Go-Kart appears and it rams the Lime and Pink one, and that Go-Kart spirals out of control and hits a nearby tree, and this makes Lana hit the brakes. "Oh no!" Lana then backs up and she attaches the Go-Kart to the other, and Lola looks to them. "Are you guys alright?"
"We are." the two racers are fine, but the one driving seems hurt and holds his arm and his older sister removes her helmet and checks on him.
The twins are shocked, those are the McCauley kids, Caleb and Camille.
Caleb McCauley – a short boy with dark tan skin and is turning 6 now. Freckles, a gap in his teeth, and he has dark curly hair in a faux hawk. He wears a yellow shirt, blue jeans and white sneakers with teal stripes. Right now, he's wearing a crown and robe since he is the birthday king.
He likes science, scrambled eggs, hugging and his big sister, Camille.
Camille McCauley – a now 10 year old girl, with dark tan skin and black hair tied up. She wears a light pink shirt, blue jumper dress, white socks and pink flats. She also wears white pearl earrings.
She likes to play dress-up, sticker books, hard boiled eggs, hugging and her little brother, Caleb.
Lola is concerned about this, and then Lana pushes the button and her Go-Kart comes with a tow cable and they begin to steadily tow the other Go-Kart and they make their way to the main road of the race.
Camille then has a first aid kit and tends to her little brother's injured left arm, he whimpers from the pain, but she does what she can to comfort him. She then looks to the twins. "Thanks girls."
"It wouldn't be right if you two were knocked out of the race from some mean cheaters, you two are also hard working kids and I can tell that even though the Go-kart looks mall bought, I can tell that that girl is handmade" said Lana. "The welding parts can be visible under the fenders."
Caleb smiles. "Thank you. But, you're gonna lose the race."
Lola chuckles. "Win or lose, it's alright. We at least showed everyone that handmade Go-Karts are still the trend that will never, ever end."
(Later.)
The two Go-Karts arrive, and they see the two other cheaters still in their helmets and with their arms crossed. "Well, well. Look who made it, the losers!"
But when they cross the finish line the crowd cheers and Bobbie Fletcher goes to them. "Ladies and gentlemen we have our first place and second place winners, the Twins Track Wheeler and Mc-Tracer Racer!"
Everyone else cheers from this, while the races are surprised. Bobbie Fletcher then sees Caleb is hurt, and so do the McCauley parents. "Are you kids okay?"
"We're fine, but why did we win?" asked Caleb.
Lola and Lana also ask. "Yeah, I mean we weren't even the winners?"
"Yeah!" they look to the two other pairs of racers. "Those dorks lost, we won fair and square and how come everyone else cheered for them?!"
Bobbie Fletcher confronts them and she is miffed. "Because the rules state that the Go-Kart's have to be handmade and those two Go-Karts were made by hand, while the pieces of junk you guys drove are mall made scrap parts that don't prove anything to actual racing, and more of lazy bums."
"Also, you guys cheated." The drone comes down and the footage is shown and everyone gasps. "Which means you four are disqualified from the race, and have a lot to answer for making those Go-Karts dangerous."
The parents of the four other racers go to their kids and they begin to scold them for making this happen, then some officers ask the parents on the situation of those cheating machines they made, now they're in trouble, deep trouble.
Bobbie Fletcher then hands the first place trophy to Lola and Lana, and then she hands the second place trophy to the McCauley kids. "Here, you guys earned these and earned some front row seats to my next race next month."
That was something both parties did not see coming, and this makes Caleb faint and his sister Camille tends to him, the twins however cheer for this win, and then Bobbie Fletcher goes to Lana. "You and me need to talk, I can see a bright racing future for you, little girl."
Lana smiles hearing this, she was now living her dream.
Lincoln and the others cheer for them, and the boy smiles to what the twins did. 'Yup, they have changed for the better and… I think I can fully trust them. They've learned their lessons and are working hard to become better people, and I look forward to seeing more of this kind-hearted and changed nature from my two former little twin sisters.'
A/N: A whole new take from the Loud House Episode "Wheels and Deals" and I thought the McCauley kids would be a great ally and friend to the twins too. Leave a review and tell me what you all think.
