On board the Ark, Meika was walking and chatting with Tamira, Tag, Meelo and Sonny as they were planning on what they should do for the next race. Meika being the double agent for The Ringmasters she is, was still uncomfortable on if one day she'll get caught betraying them. But over the past months she has redeemed herself very well. Meika waved goodbye to them as she went to her room, just as she turned she ran into a male fox as the two fell on the floor
"Dios Mio, I'm very sorry." He said as he had dropped his racing helmet as he had a Spanish accent as he gets up
"It's... alright-" Meika froze as he saw his face, He had 2 black stripes on his cheeks going up, Hair with black and orange, Brown eyes and was wearing what looks like an Aztec charm as it made her blush bright red as she shook as he offered a hand as he was wearing a grey and blue jacket with a neon shirt on but the rest was black, His jacket had a tow logos, one which looked like a car logo, the other, had a tornado inside a hurricane with thunder bolts on the side outside the hurricane, his tail had a small black tip on it.
"H-hi!" Meika stuttered as she stood up blushing still
"Hola, my name is Cayden Suarez Petty but call me Cade," he said with a soft smile
"I'm meika, you're new here right?" She asked
"Yeah I'm a new rookie." He said
"Oh really?" She asked
"Yep!" He said with a smile
"I am the new rookie." He replied again
"T-that's nice." She stuttered again as She waved to Cade goodbye as he went to his room
Meanwhile, Meika's BFF, Darrell aka Bubba who was a fox as well but with stripes near his eyes sideways and black ears as he was playing some video games with Sonny as bubba beats him
"Boom! Gotcha!" The African American fox said as Sonny laughed as the two high fived, Just then Meika came in as she sighed in love as the two saw
"Uhh meik?" Bubba asked
"Oh um hi boys." She said as she snapped out of it as the two looked at eachother then realized
"Oh I think we know what's going on, You have a crush on someone." Sonny replied
"Damn right. Who's the lucky guy?" Bubba asked
"If it's Pike I'm gonna kick his ass." He replied
"What? Pike? That jerk no. It's... the new rookie... Cade." Meika said blushing hard
"The Cade!?" Bubba shouted
"Who's Cade?" Sonny asked Bubba
"Only the most legendary Racer ever in Rimba History! He's a 3 time F1 Champion he won his first championship at age 18, he's the son of RGP Legend Ricky "Ace" Petty!" Bubba explained as he reached his pocket as he showed a photo of Cade and Ace together at One of the RSCMJ's (Rimba Stock Car Major League) races
"See." He said as Sonny was shocked
"No way." Sonny replied
"Yes way man!" Bubba replied
"Ace is known to be the King of the RGP, 200 wins, 7 championships!" He replied to Sonny as it made the poor vixen blush more
"Guys!!!" Meika shouted as they stopped
"Right right." Bubba said as he puts the photo up
"So how do I ask him!? Is he single!?" Meika asked nervously as Bubba looked at Sonny
"I... don't know." Bubba said
"Dang." Meika replied
"Well maybe he can be a new addition to the tag team. I mean we haven't raced with him yet." Sonny said as the 3 nodded.
During the race, Bubba in his car, The Phoenix was in the lead as Pike was behind him in the Cerberus, With Cade in his car, Dark Storm which is an Urbana Cerberus SRT, one of his Main sponsors in the RGP. As he drives up as Bubba falls back, Cade steps on the gas as he increased his speed, His speed mileage was going up. 110 mph, 115 mph, 120 mph... 200 mph as he drafts behind Pike to gain speed, they were in a tunnel as there headlights came on on there cars
"Tag! Looks like the new guy is having fun on pike's ass." Miles chuckled
"I can tell miles I can see him." Tag said as he went behind Cade as tag saw his name on the back near his rear lights and exhaust pipes as the 3 were drafting near the end of the race as Meika couldn't help but dream about Cade in the Belladonna as she picked up the speed as Cade went into the outside and passes Pike.
"Cade passes pike for the lead Buck." An elderly timber wolf named Darrell Wolftrip said in the booth with Beaks and Buck
"And the 43 of Cade Petty is in the lead as he drives away from Tag and Pike. Wait Pike is nose to nose with Cade as they touch and bang next to each Other it's gonna be close!" Buck shouted as the two crossed the finish line
"Darrell who got it!?" Buck shouted as Darrell looked at the replay and was shocked
"Cade got it! By a second!" He showed the replay as it slowed down a bit showing Cade touched the line first from his front bumper as the fans went nuts when the race is official as Cade puts his window net down where his door was as he waved to the fans, as he went around. He then puts on a show as he does victory donuts as it was his first career win in the RGP as smoke formed from the rear tires as the crowd went nuts for Cade's way of celebrating. Sonny, Tag, Tamira, Meelo, Bubba and Meika pulled up seeing Cade celebrate
"Wow. That's a new way to celebrate." Tamira said as they nods as Miles came down
"He reminds me of Riq." Miles said as Tag nods
"And his father." Meelo said with his arms crossed as Cade gets out of DarkStorm and stood on the open window as he celebrates with his helmet off as Dark Storm had a tornado design on both sides left and right as Meika sighed and walked up
"Hi Cade." Meika said shyly
"Hey Meika. How was that race??" Cade asked
"Very good hehe at least 4 people wrecked." She said mentioning, Krom, Xeno, Vyxx and Axle
Cade nods in agreement as Bubba then shouted
"Ask him out already." Bubba shouted as the gang laughed as it made the poor vixen blush super hard
"What?" Cade asked as he chuckled as the smoke cleared up
"You wanna um... go out to dinner my treat." Meika asked as she rubs her arm nervously
"Like... a date??" Cade asked
"Yeah a date!" Meika said
"Well... I haven't gone on one in a while so why not!" Cade replied
"Really??" Meika wags her tail a bit
"Yeah what time-" before he could say anything Meika jumped on him as the two fell as Tag and Bubba went over
"U two good?" Bubba asked looking down at em as the others did too as Cade and Meika were laughing a bit
"Amigos. Remind me to cut off the burnouts next time." Cade said as the gang laugh on the finish line as the fans already left. With Pike staring at them in a dark place knowing what Meika's true colors were.
