Here's the next chapter
For those of you who didn't read the latest chapter of "A Deadly Game of Hide and Seek" I hit a very rough patch in life, those who wish to know what happened can PM me and I'll try to explain more.
But enough about me
Now to reviews
No One: Well I created my OCs about a solid year ago when I started getting serious about writing out the ideas I had that turned into the 4 stories I've posted so far and those coming in the future, I won't say anything about them here since I don't want to spoil anything, I'm sure you're not the only one surprised by the sudden return of the dead racers.
That Guy: You saying that makes it so tempting…I'm joking…I won't say what happens since I don't won't to spoil future chapters, as for the game sets you'll find out in later chapters.
Gloyd's Only Fan: I'm glad you enjoyed the chapter…but I wouldn't get so confident…the supposed "Good Guys" haven't won all that much…
Overrated: Won't say since the reason is kind a of stupid
Guest Tactics: The last chapter of a "Deadly Game of Hide and Seek" will be posted soon
darkness: I know it's been more than a month, I haven't given up (Trust me I love writing this story) just it has been almost borderline impossible to do so
guest 133790: I enjoy writing these kind of stories but don't just dabble in these kind, you'll see that with some of the stories that will be published once my 2 current stories are finished, well I went with Torvald mostly because I wanted a recolor to take more of the leadership role, and since Nougetsia and Citrusella joined Vanellope, and Sticky is more of a cowardly racer (my personal interpretation of her fell free to disagree), well come to think of it I have Minty being a tough as nails kind of character, Sticky being more of a coward, and Torvald being the smart, rational one. (Again my personal interpretation and use of the characters feel free to disagree with me)
not a critic: Well I experimented with 4 different groups, the first group being Adorabeezle, Jubileena, Nougetsia and Citrusella, second group being Gloyd, Rancis, Swizzle and Snowanna, the third group being Torvald, Sticky, Minty and Swizzle and the fourth group being Candlehead, Crumbelina, Snowanna and Minty, I ended up falling in love with group 1 and decided to use them in both of my current stories.
Also, I updated/edited/fixed all the mistakes in every chapter in every story I've written but for some reason or other I haven't noticed any changes if you experienced the same thing please tell me
Now with that out of the way
Who are these new racers?
And what happens when a few racers begin to plot behind Torvald's back?
I'll never tell
Now I've said it plenty of times but shall do so again.
Herschel Nougatson belongs to Captain Alaska
The OCs introduced in this chapter belong to me
The tracks Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps (Stavelot, Belgium) Autodromo Nazionale Monza (Monza, Italy) Circuit Gilles Villeneuve (Montreal, Canada) Silverstone Circuit (Silverstone, UK) Circuit de Monaco (Monte Carlo, Monaco) belong to F1
No one owns anything else!
Ch.16 Newcomers
(Where we left off)
The 2 new racers would come to a halt a few feet away from everyone.
Vanellope would clear her throat. "Welcome…I'm Vanellope Von Schweetz…ruler of the game…who may you be?"
1 would remove their full-face helmet revealing a girl. "My name's Marcy…Marcy Mars…"
The other would remove their full-face helmet revealing a boy. "Hello…"
"And this is my brother Lodhi…" Marcy and Lodhi would jump out of their karts.
(Meanwhile)
Litwak would stand infront of the game sets with a representative of the company.
"I was told it would be 2 racers and 2 new tracks…"
The representative would look up from their clipboard. "Who told you that?"
"One of the guys wheeling in the game sets…"
"It's actually 5 tracks and 5 racers…"
"Holy cow…this is a large upgrade…"
"Biggest one yet…there's also some changes and additions players have been wanting to see for a while…" The representative would look back down at their clipboard.
(Back in the game)
The roar of 3 more engines would surprise the racers as 3 more karts would fly over Lodhi and Marcy
"Do you always have to make grand entrances?" Marcy would ask the racers.
The third racer would remove their full-face helmet revealing another brother. "Well…I got no excuse…-he'd turn to the others-…name's Phipps Twix…"
The fourth racer would remove their full-face helmet revealing a sister. "Well you guys took off to take the spotlight…-she'd turn to the others-…name's Annie Brownie…"
The fifth would remove their full-face helmet revealing another brother. "I got dragged into it as always…-he'd glance at the others-…name's Akio Cookie Dough…"
"I thought you said there would be 2…" Vanellope would whisper to Adorabeezle.
"It seems no one knew the exact number…sorry princess…" Adorabeelze would whisper back.
"Don't worry…I can still work with this…"
Rancis would go shake their hands.
"Rancis Fluggerbutter…pleasure to meet you all…"
"Pleasure's mine…" Lodhi would shake his hand.
"Nice to meet you…" Phipps would reply with a smile.
"You seem nice…" Marcy would state.
"Nice hat…" Annie would state.
"You look cool…" Akio would let go of his hand.
"Thanks…not to bad yourself…" Rancis would reply with smirk.
Rancis would walk away from them as Snowanna, Nougetsia and Citrusella would walk up to them.
"Seems it's 5 siblings…" Crumbelina would whisper to Torvald and Minty.
"Yea…so one side will have the number advantage…" Minty would whisper back.
"I'll be the one that tells them what happened…but I'll tell them when the time is right…" Torvald would glance at the 2.
"Better not blow it sis…"
"I won't…"
"Hmm..." Sour Bill would pass Vanellope her tablet and she'd drag Adorabeezle and Rancis away from the group of racers.
"What's wrong Nelly?"
"Just going to show you their files…"
"Why us princess?" Adorabeezle would ask.
"Since you both are my most trusted racers…and Jubileena but she won't be in the tournament and won't have to worry about them…"
"How do you get it on your tablet?" Rancis would ask.
"Sour Bill somehow hooking it into the game's code…" Vanellope would reply.
"Can we get on to these 5 please?" Adorabeezle would ask.
"Sure…" Vanellope would open her tablet and the first file would pop up.

When racing she wears a black fire retardant Nomex racing suit with a thick red stripe going down each side, she also wears a black shirt, underwear and socks all made of Nomex under it, black racing gloves which also happen to be made from Nomex, these are thinner than the suit itself and are combined with suede leather palms, special ear plugs to block out the noise generated by her kart, black racing boots made of Nomex with very thin soles made of rubber, a black full-face helmet, her visor is tinted and made of a special clear polycarbonate, combining excellent impact protection with flame resistance and excellent visibility, it comes with several transparent tear-off strips attached to the outside, as the visor picks up dirt during the course of the race, she can remove these to clear her vision, she wears a black Balaclavas made of Nomex under it and a black HANS (Head and Neck Support) system
1st Note: The HANS (Head and Neck Support) system is secured to the driver's safety belts and connected to the helmet by 2 elastic straps, it's intended to prevent stretching of the vertebrae and to prevent the driver's head from hitting the steering wheel in the event of a crash
2nd Note: Nomex is a flame-resistant meta-aramid material used in all racing suits in F1
Description: Marcy is modelled after F1 legend Ayrton Senna and her personal favorite Lewis Hamilton.
For her racing skills and raw talent look no further than Senna, but the biggest of his attributes she has is his sheer and often times terrifying determination, once the race starts she let's very little get in her way of atleast finishing in the top 7, she will chase whoever is ahead of her down no matter what condition her kart is in, she never quits and the only way to really stop her is to destroy her kart, like Senna she is one of THE worst racers to go wheel to wheel fighting with like the man himself she is incredibly difficult to overtake, she will make you fight for every inch of ground, it is also impossible to push her beyond her limit like Senna she has none, like Hamilton she's a tenacious racer, has Hamilton's deadly eye for an overtake but comes with a drawback that can prove to be fatal, she lacks patience and is a high risk high reward kind of racer, it leaves her prone to making costly mistakes, but make no doubt about it she is one of the most dangerous racers on the track.
Off the track she is a happy go lucky kind of girl, she's always smiling and has a great sense of humor, though those who get on her bad side might find her bipolar since she can quickly become one of the meanest racers out there.
Special Trait: She's very skilled in Karate and specializes in the use of twin Sai
Note: She practices as a hobby
Likes/Dislikes: She loves racing, going fast, beating her siblings in races (especially Annie), snowboarding, she adores Formula 1 racing and is a giant Lewis Hamilton fan, she loves the Fast and the Furious movies, horror movies such as Friday the 13th and Nightmare on elm street, her favorite band is Bon Jovi, with the songs "It's My Life" and "Livin On Prayer" being by far her favorite.
She dislikes several things, racers who are full of themselves, bullies, loud mouths, reckless drivers, losing and liars being the most prominent.

The body of the kart is made of a Mars bar shaped into Ayrton Senna's 1992 McLaren MP4/7A, her steering wheel is made of an Oreo cookie, her seat is made of a two-bite brownie with the back being made of a large marshmallow Fudge brownie, her pedals are made of brown wafers, her wheels are made of Rolo chocolate, her front and rear wings are made of Mars bars, her kart is black with thick red stripes behind and in front of the cockpit, a large yellow 50 rests on both sides of the cockpit.
Personal Powerup: 'Barrage' Is Marcy special, a multi-rocket launcher is mounted on the back of her kart, she fires 5 small and highly explosive missiles either in an arc or parallel to the track, they can obliterate a kart regardless if it is shielded by Cherry Bombs, she has a 50% chance of getting 6 missiles, a 40% chance of getting 7, 30% of getting 8, 20% chance of getting 9 and a 10% chance of getting 10, her multi-rocket launcher can turn a complete 360 degrees, no one is safe once she gets her powerup
Note: Numbers may be reduced if players find her too overpowered
Fans: Marcy's fan are anthropomorphic Mars bars, they are die-hard fans of Marcy and enjoy watching her race, they get loud when she wins especially if she beat Annie in a close finish, they reside in a village separate from the main one along with the fans of her siblings, and they can struggle to co-exist especially when arguments about which sibling is better.
Their grandstand is a large black box with Marcy's name written on the front in red letters with a yellow outline.
"She seems nice…" Rancis would state.
"Powerup is definitely something…" Adorabeezle would state.
"Now let's see her siblings…" Vanellope would swipe and the next file would pop up.

Theme: Coffee Crisp/Formula 1
Note: He was originally supposed to be based off of the WTCC (World Touring Car Championship) but he was changed midway through development
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Accent: German
Note: So, players can have a few laughs he does these 3 'errors'/'mispronunciations' when speaking
Instead of saying "W" or "WH" he says "V"
Instead of saying "TH" he says "Z" or "S"
He rolls every R he speaks
But make no mistake his accent isn't fake he just does those 3 'errors' so players can have a few laughs with the other racers

Description: Lodhi is modelled after F1 legend Michael Schumacher and his personal favorite Sebastian Vettel.
He gets his racing skills and gifted talent from Schumacher, along with his blistering pace, he is one if not the fastest racer on the track, he also shares Schumacher's metronomic consistency, he's a consistent front runner and it's one heck of a fight to keep him out of the top positions, he also comes with a strong sense of morality, he never races dirty and will never wreck a another racer on purpose (only exception being knocking them out with his powerup which he considers fair play and part of the race), he knows even in the most desperation situations wrecking others just for a win is wrong, to him it's an empty worthless victory, he's also the most disciplined racer on the track, he reacts quickly to situations, like Vettel he's a good tactician, he knows when to outright attack those ahead to take their position and knows when to be conservative and patient, he's dedicated, no matter the situation he all but refuses to stay down, he's very resilient, he's also good at reading the strategies used by other racers and adjusting accordingly, he can learn someone's strategy and tactics in less than a lap just by observing them, he can also read just about anyone like a book, to put it short, Lodhi isn't the best racer to have directly behind you
Off the track, he's a typical nice guy, he has a great sense of humor, it's rare to see him without a smile, he's actually one of the most caring racers.
He also has a large science lab where he works with 4 assistants, 2 that create/invent medical serums to help with people recover and heal faster (They can create/invent reality defying things), and the other 2 work on features to add to karts to make them go faster and handle better

Note: He practices as a hobby when not racing or working in his lab

He dislikes a few things, losing (especially to Akio and Phipps), being lied too and people making fun of the errors in his pronunciation being the only notable things.
Kart Description 'The Red Baron': Lodhi's most prized possession
(Named after one of Schumacher's most famous nicknames 'The Red Baron') The body of the kart is made out of a Coffee Crisp bar shaped into Michael Schumacher's Ferrari F2004, his wheels are made of Rolos, his steering wheel is made of Coffee Crips bars, his pedals are made of wafers, his seat is made of large marshmallows, his front and rear wings are made of Coffee Crisp bars, his whole kart is painted red with a large black 25 on either side of the cockpit.
Personal Powerup: 'Tank' is Lodhi's special, his kart turns into the Panzer VIII Maus (a German super heavy tank that was being developed near the very end of WW2), he becomes impervious to damage, and gets 5-10 shots (depending on the number of laps in the race) with his main gun, and an infinite number shots with his co-axial MG 34, though it'll take 5-10 hits to begin doing any hindering damage to a kart (excluding shots that hit the wheels), but it comes with a drawback, he must use strategically as he can't pick up any other items, he only gets 1 item a race (his tank), also to avoid people abusing the machine gun measures are in place where the gun becomes useless if players begin abusing it, also if he stays in tank form for too long his speed is reduced to half even deactivating the powerup and reactivating it won't bring the speed back.
1st Note: Only the tank goes slower not his kart speed.
2nd Note: His armor has a weak point, which is the rear of the tank, Sweet Seekers can one-shot his tank from the rear while Cherry Bombs can severely damage it.
Lilla can one-shot his tank but needs to be aiming at the rear of the tank
Phipps can outright destroy his tank
Akio can severely damage his tank
Annie can be his worst nightmare
Fans: Lodhi's fans are anthropomorphic Coffee Crisp bars, they are die-hard fans, nothing pleases them more than watching him owning his brothers all over the track, they are the loudest out of all the fans to the point where they'll drown some of the others out, like the fans of his siblings they struggle to co-exist especially when someone says Akio or Phipps is better than Lodhi.
Their grandstand is a large yellow box with Lodhi's name written on the front in thick red letters with a white outline.

Description: Phipps is modelled after F1 legend Alain Prost and his personal favorite Max Verstappen.
He gets his racing skills and gifted talent from Prost, along with his great precision, like Prost he's always calm, cold, collected and every single move he makes is calculated, he's good at reading situations and knows when to make his moves, he makes even the nearly impossible situations look like a cake walk, he drives smoothly and it is nearly impossible to put him out of his comfort zone, he even strives under immense pressure, on the track he also has Verstappen's gung-ho approach to overtaking, he's very courageous and is a huge risk taker (when the situation requires it), he's always ready and eager to fight for the position ahead of him and enjoys defending his position tooth and nail (especially if Lodhi is the one fighting for his position)
Off the track, he's a typical nice guy with a great sense of humor, he's energetic and is one of the friendliest racers
Yet like his siblings if you tick him off he'll make you regret whatever you did to piss him off, his favorite methods being trolling someone during a race using his powerup, or humiliating them off the track with a prank.
Special Trait: He's very skilled in Okinawan Kobudō and specializes in the use of Nunchucks

Personal Powerup: 'Explosives' Is Phipps powerup, he gets 10 throwable explosives, he has 3 kinds of explosives, the first kind is an orange ball that explodes on impact, anyone within a 10 kart radius of the blast gets inverse controls for 10 seconds, however Phipps is immune to it, the second kind is a basic impact grenade that can severely damage a kart and knock it out of commission if he hits the engine or the wheels, the third kind is a thermal imploder, it decimates anything within a 5 kart radius and damaging those within a 6-10 kart radius, not even Lodhi's tank can survive at the epicenter of the blast, his tank will be destroyed if he's within the lethal 5 kart radius of the blast, however this one requires much caution as Phipps isn't immune to the blast.
Fans: Phipps fans are anthropomorphic Twix bars, they are die-hard fans, they cheer him on no matter how badly he's doing, they love seeing him beating his brothers (Lodhi and Akio), they tend to boo his rivals (especially Lodhi), like all the fans of the siblings they struggle to co-exist especially if someone says Lodhi is better than Phipps.
Their grandstand is a large dark gold box with Phipps name written on the front in thick bright red letters.
Name: Akio Cookie Dough

Description: Akio is modelled after F1 legends Juan Manuel Fangio and Nigel Mansell
As far as skills and talent go, he gets that from both legendary racers, like Fangio he's excellent at multi-tasking, he's a quick thinker, clever and very politically astute, meaning he has a great understanding of behaviors and situations and using that knowledge to his advantage, he's always calm and at ease, like Nigel Mansell he's very courageous, determined, he doesn't let anyone get away from him, he's ruthless and spares no one, on the track he holds nothing back and goes all out every race, he's ultra competitive, once he's on your tail he won't back off, once the race starts nothing short of his kart breaking down will stop him from chasing down the leaders, like Mansell he's not afraid of how good the other racers are, it's impossible to intimidate him, any attempts to do so will only fuel his desire to beat the fool who tries
Off the track, he's a quiet fellow, in groups he tends to be silent to the point people might think he's mute, but in one on one conversations he gets more talkative
But like his siblings he doesn't take kindly to being bullied or being look down upon, and if push comes to shove he has no problem throwing the first and last punch.
Special Trait: He's skilled in Kung Fu and specializes in the use of a Staff.
Note: He practices as a hobby

Kart Description 'The Streetfighter': Akio' most prized possession

Personal Powerup: 'Mines' Is Akio's special, he gets 5-7 mines that he can either set one at a time, in groups, or all at the same time, they are dispensed out of the back of the kart but Akio can also throw them if he chooses to do so, they destroy whatever drives over them (even Akio himself if he forgot where he put them), but comes with a drawback, they destroy whatever drives over them but that's it, no one else will be affected, those who are right beside the mine when explodes might get shaken up but nothing severe, his mine can be a huge hinderance to Lodhi, if he is not careful and drives over one with his tank it will disable his tank for a long period of time.
Fans: Akio's fan are anthropomorphic Pillsbury Dough Boy cookies and sticks of Cookie Dough, they are die-hard fans, they love watching him race, they go hysterical if makes an epic comeback during a race, they will lose their minds if he beats Lodhi and Phipps in a close finish, they hate the fans of his siblings especially if they say Lodhi and Phipps are better than Akio
Their grandstand is a large beige box with Akio's name written on the front in large white letters
Name: Annie Brownie
Theme: Vachon Triple Fudge Brownies and Two-bite Brownies/Formula 1
Age: 16
Gender: Female

When racing she wears a brown fire retardant Nomex racing suit, under it she wears a brown shirt, underwear and socks made of Nomex, she wears brown racing gloves made from Nomex, they're thinner than the suit and are combined with suede leather palms, ear plugs to block out the noise of her kart, brown racing boots with thin rubber soles, a brown full-face helmet with a tinted visor made of a special clear polycarbonate, combining excellent impact protection with flame resistance and excellent visibility, it comes with several transparent tear-off strips attached to the outside, as the visor picks up dirt during the course of the race, she can remove these to clear her vision, she wears a brown Balaclavas made of Nomex under it and a black HANS system
Description: Annie is modelled after F1 legend Gilles Villeneuve (considered to be the greatest Canadian driver of all time, even though he only won 6 races in his short career he was considered the fastest and skilled of his time and some even place his name beside the likes of Senna, Prost, Fangio, Schumacher, etc., and even though his son Jacques Villeneuve became Formula One world champion in 1997 Gilles is still considered better)
As said she is only modelled after Villeneuve to bring the cliché (some consider it ironic) that he was blindingly talented and arguably the fastest racing driver the world had ever seen but also madly irresponsible to life, she's one of the fastest drivers on the track (Lodhi and Akio being the only racers faster than her), she is quick thinker and fast on her feet, but as mentioned she is very irresponsible, in desperate and dire situations she can get very reckless, like Villeneuve she comes with fierce determination, she doesn't know the meaning of the word quit, she is the most offensive driver, she's always on the attack, in offensiveness she's in a league of her own, she also drives with Villeneuve's great sensitivity and delicate touch.
Off the track, she has a very reckless behavior, she likes pissing people off for laughs (mostly pissing her enemies and rivals off), and doesn't know where the limit with people are, she's not friendly with those who chose to tick her off
Special Trait: She's very skilled at Judo and prefers to not use weapons
Note: She practices as a hobby
Likes/Dislikes: She loves racing, being in the middle of the action, winning, beating her siblings (especially Marcy who she takes great pride in beating), snowboarding, video games, she loves F1, yet like Akio her favorite driver remains a mystery, her favorite band is Daughtry with her favorite songs being "Long Live Rock and Roll" "Home" and "Wild Heart"
She hates 3 things with a passion, those being losing to Marcy, people criticizing her abilities and people lying to her face.
Kart Description 'The Triple Fudge' Annie's most prized possession
The body of the kart is a Vachon Tripe Fudge brownie shaped into Gilles Villeneuve's 1981 Ferrari 126C, her steering wheel is made of Vachon Triple Fudge brownies, her pedals are made of two-bite brownies, her seat is made of two-bite with the back being a Triple Fudge brownie, her front and rear wings are made of Vachon Triple Fudge brownies, her wheels are made of two-bite brownies, the whole kart is brown with a white 27 on either side of the cockpit
Personal Ability: 'Steal' Unlike her siblings Annie doesn't have a powerup nor can she pick up any items (like Lodhi), that's where her ability comes into play, she has the power to steal another racers powerup, she can only do so once per lap, when she's within 15 karts of a racer their item will appear above her steering wheel (above the racers for the players), once she chooses who's powerup she wants all she does is simply press a button and that powerup will disappear from the racer's item slot and appear in hers, not even personal powerups are safe from her, that's right she can steal Herschel's Intimidation, Marcy's Barrage, Akio's Mines, Phipps Explosives and even Lodhi's tank, meaning she can really screw Lodhi over if whoever is controlling him isn't careful.
Note: To make Lodhi's life a little easier she has to be within 5 karts distance of him to steal his tank but he must keep a close eye on her, also if he has already fired a shot with his tank she won't be able to steal it from him
Fans: Annie's fans are anthropomorphic brownies, with the males being Vachon Triple Fudge brownies and the females being Two-Bite brownies, they are die-hard fans and love seeing her beat Marcy
Their grandstand is a large brown box with her name written on the front in big white letters.
Homes:
Annie's is a large 3 story Two-bite brownie
Marcy's is a large mansion made of a large Mars bar
Akio's is a small 2 story house made of Cookie Dough
Phipps had a mansion made of a large Twix bar
Lodhi lives in a 24 room Chalet at the base of the mountain

Circuit Gilles Villeneuve (Montreal, Canada)
Silverstone Circuit (Silverstone, UK)
Circuit de Monaco (Monte Carlo, Monaco)
All F1 tracks
The song that plays in the background of each song is 'Daisy Circuit' from Mario Kart Wii
Updated Tracks: Due to high demand we have updated Frosty Rally, Cakeway and Gumball Gorge
Frosty Rally: The track has been enlarged, more turns have been added, with the addition of patches of black ice which will send anyone who drives over them into a spin, with the best new feature being part of the track going into the mountains
Cakeway: The track has been enlarged, added 2 large cakes (like the one seen on the Royal Raceway), more twist and turns, along with parts of the track being off-road
Gumball Gorge: The track has been enlarged, added more turns, straightaways and Gumballs falling only in certain places
New Feature: Microphones
It has been highly requested for years
Racers have integrated microphones in their helmets
Vanellope comes with an ear piece seeing how she only has goggles
Lodhi, Marcy, Phipps, Akio and Annie have special ear plugs that serve as ear phones
When passing one another friendly racers will exchange friendly rhetoric and banter
Rivals will argue and name call
New Feature: Realistic Mode
Players will be put in a real-life race with no items
With the number of laps usually taken around the tracks (the NASCAR and F1 tracks)
And will have to go to the pits occasionally
New NPCs: Pit Crews
They stay in the pit lanes during the races
They are mostly used during realistic mode races
The crews of each racers are made of their fans
Examples
Taffyta's pit crew is comprised of Lollipops
Annie's pit crew comprises of Two-bite brownies and Vachon Triple Fudge brownies
Developer Notes
We have no idea why Gloyd, Taffyta, Minty, Torvald, Crumbelina and Candlehead have been excluded from the roster for the past month, we suspect it's the same glitch in the system that kept Vanellope off for 15 years
We are looking into it
As for rumors that we were going to make changes to Gloyd's high tendency to get Cherry Bombs and Minty's tendency to get speed boosts, we haven't planned on doing that for 2 reasons
There hasn't been any demand for it
It seems to have become part of the characters and players love them for it
"Wow…great karts...great powerups…what more could they want?" Adorabeezle would look up from the tablet.
"To put into context…they're all modelled after racers who are in nearly everyone's top 12 of all time…these are some over-powered racers…" Rancis would add.
Vanellope would close her tablet and ponder. "Leave me for a moment…I must think about this…"
Rancis and Adorabeezle would nod and leave her.
Vanellope would look at the sky for a few moments before handing her tablet to Sour Bill.
"Just incase make sure everything is ready if I must resort to my plan B…"
Sour Bill would nod. "You do know your taking a huge risk with that plan…sure it's easy to fool most of them…but they don't matter…it's Torvald…she has to buy it and not catch on to us…"
"Don't worry Bill...she'll fall for it…she still believes there's 'Good' in me…now go get everything ready…"
Sour Bill would bow and run off to the castle as Vanellope would adjust her Tiara. "What to do about these new 5…Lodhi requires caution seeing how he can rather easily tell if I'm lying or not…"
Snowanna, Nougetsia and Citrusella would walk away from the 5 new racers blushing.
"Hmm…I can work with that…." She would continue adjusting her Tiara. "For fucks sake this thing doesn't feel comfortable sometimes…"
Crumbelina's eyes would narrow. "Seems 3 have a crush right off the bat…"
"Yea…I noticed…" Torvald would reply.
"Not good…" Taffyta would add.
"We don't need them becoming attached to those 5…" Minty would cross her arms.
Lodhi would greet everyone politely as he'd come to Torvald.
"Name's Torvald Batterbutter…" Torvald would state as Lodhi would take her hand.
"Pleasure to meet you Torvald…" He'd kiss her hand.
Both racers cheeks would redden slightly before he'd move on to the last bunch.
Crumbelina would snicker. "Luckily you won't have to fight for him…"
"Shut up Crumbelina…I don't have time for that now…" Torvald would reply coldly.
"There's always time for love Torvald…" Crumbelina would reply
Candlehead would bear hug the life out Annie.
"Holy…fucking…shit…my…spine…your…breaking…it…" Annie would state as Candlehead would let her go.
"Sorry about that…"
"It's fine…" Annie would reply holding her side. "Holy shit…" She'd mutter to herself
Phipps would shake Gloyd's hand. "Seems you were in a bad accident…"
Gloyd would look at Jubileena through the corner of his eyes. "Yea…hit the wall got ejected from my seat and smashed my back up pretty damn good…"
"Sorry to hear that man…"
"It's fine…I'll be back in no time…"
"I sure hope so…" Phipps would move on to the next racer
Akio would silently high five Jubileena.
"You don't talk much do you?" Jubileena would ask.
Akio would be silent for a few moments. "…Kind of…" He'd move on to the next racer
Lodhi, Marcy, Phipps and Akio would finish greeting the racers and return to their karts as Annie would shake Herschel's hand.
"You NASCAR themed?" She'd ask glancing at his kart.
"Yea…and your theme probably doesn't just revolve around brownies…"
"It's Vachon Triple Fudge brownies and Two-bite brownies to be exact…and yea my siblings and I are all F1 themed…"
"I see…"
"Look…-she'd let go of his hand-…you seem nice and all…let's not argue which one is better…they are polar opposites for mod's sake…"
"I'm fine with that…but the second you imply F1 is better expect me to school you…"
"Don't worry…"
"Why?"
"Because I'm not going to waste a second trying to explain why a Vintage muscle car taken to extreme lengths is far inferior to a technological masterpiece that has more in common with a fighter jet than an automobile…"
She'd turn and walk towards her kart.
Herschel would go to say something when Torvald and Sticky would cover his mouth.
"Not a word…we don't need you pissing them off…Vanellope will only use that to sway them…" Torvald would give him a small glare.
"Just this once let her get away with it…" Sticky would stare at him.
Herschel would sigh as Marcy would lean against her kart.
"This is the Torpedo…made for speed…made for winning…"
Phipps would rub his front left tire. "This is the Twixter…may not look like much…but I'm willing to bet it's match for all of your karts…"
Akio would glance at the racers then as his kart silently.
"Common Akio…" Phipps would look over at his brother.
"This…is the Streetfighter…" Akio would state
Annie would rub the front of her kart. "This is the Triple Fudge…it can take anything you throw at it and still get a good finish…"
Lodhi would glance at his kart. "Zis is ze Red Baron…"
"Sorry if I sound offensive but what is Zis and Ze?" Candlehead would ask curiously.
Phipps would answer for Lodhi "Oh we forgot to tell ya…as you can tell he has a German accent…but for some twisted reason the developers decided to make him talk as if he had a fake one… i.e. instead of saying the 'W' in each word he'll say 'V'…instead of 'TH' he'll say 'Z' or 'S'… and as you can tell he rolls his R's way too much…"
"That's fine…I know I won't make a big deal out of it…" Torvald would turn to look at those on her side.
"Right?"
They'd nod in agreement.
"How about you tell us a little but about yourselves? I doubt your F1 themed and not modelled after some F1 racers…" Vanellope would stop adjusting her Tiara
Marcy would continue leaning on her kart. "Well I'm modelled after Ayrton Senna arguably the greatest driver of all time...and Lewis Hamilton…"
"You a Lewis Hamilton fan?" Rancis would ask.
"Damn right…"
"Rancis is a huge fanboy…" Vanellope would chuckle.
"So are you Nelly…"
"No…I just prefer him winning over Sebastian Vettel and Max Verstappen…" Vanellope would cross her arms.
Phipps and Lodhi would look at one another.
"Something wrong boys?" Snowanna would ask.
Phipps would nod. "Yup…I'm modelled after Alain Prost…along with Max Verstappen…"
Lodhi would clear his throat. "I'm modelled after Michael Schumacher…and Sebastian Vettel…"
"Oh…" Rancis would look at his toes.
"I didn't mean to offend…but I'm sure you love watching Max and Sebastian beat Lewis…" Vanellope would reply.
"Pretty much…" Phipps would cross his arms.
"Look I didn't mean to sound offensive or insult your favorite drivers…I'm sorry…no hard feelings?"
Lodhi and Phipps would glance at one another.
"I'll let it slide…" Lodhi would state.
Annie would adjust her hat. "I'm modelled after Gilles Villeneuve…best Canadian driver to ever sit in a F1 car…had he been given more time it's guaranteed he would've won a championship…"
"What happened to him?" Candlehead would ask.
"Villeneuve died after an accident during the final qualifying session for the Belgian Grand Prix at Zolder…May 8, 1982…at the age of 32…" Annie would look at the ground.
"Oh…" Candlehead would respond.
"Didn't his son Jacques Villeneuve win the championship in 1997?" Vanellope would ask
"He did but unlike his father he had the best car on the grid and a few of the other teams shot themselves in the foot with their cars…it showed in the following seasons that he only won because he had a car that was nearly impossible to beat…had Gilles had a car like that Schumacher wouldn't be holding the records he currently has…" Annie would cross her arms glancing at Lodhi. "You know I'm right Lodhi…"
Lodhi would sigh.
"What about you Akio?" Citrusella would ask.
Akio would be silent for a few moments as everyone would turn their gaze to him.
"Juan Manuel Fangio…and Nigel Mansell…"
Rancis would look at the 5 new racers.
"Not including the current drivers your all modelled after F1 legends who find themselves in everyone's top 12…"
"Hey if your going to model characters after F1 racers might as well model them after the legends…especially if people argue each legend is the greatest of all time…" Phipps would lean on his kart.
"Definitely…" Rancis would state as he'd yawn.
"Well it was nice meeting you 5…you all seem very nice…but I think we should all turn in for the night…tomorrow we'll race on the new tracks…" Vanellope would adjust her Tiara again.
"What are the new ones?" Marcy would ask.
"Silverstone Circuit…Spa…Monza…Monaco…and Circuit Gilles Villeneuve…their all F1 tracks…" Vanellope would reply.
"And some of the more popular ones…" Phipps would add.
Annie would stretch. "So where are our homes?"
Vanellope would point towards the village where Marcy's, Phipps, Akio's and Annie's would be side by side.
"Vere's mine?" Lodhi would ask.
Vanellope would point to the base of the mountain where they would see his large Chalet.
"Aw I want to live in that…" Jubileena would comment seeing the giant 24-room building
"Hey! What's wrong with my place?" Adorabeezle would ask.
"Nothing it's just not that…" Jubileena would reply.
Adorabeezle would sigh as Marcy would stretch. "Might as well turn it for the night…nice meeting all of you…"
Marcy, Akio, Lodhi, Phipps and Annie would jump into their karts and leave with Torvald and her team leaving immediately afterwards.
Vanellope would turn to her racers. "Remember…no aggression…if possible provoke them into attacking you…understood?"
They'd nod.
"Then your all dismissed for the night…" She'd walk to the castle Rancis following close behind.
(A few minutes later)
Torvald, Minty, Sticky, Candlehead, Crumbelina, Taffyta, Gloyd and Herschel would meet up at Torvald's home.
"Ok…I'm willing to bet you all know Vanellope will do anything and everything she can to sway Lodhi, Akio, Phipps, Marcy and Annie to her side…" Torvald would tap her fingers together.
"Yea…even Candlehead knew that…" Minty would lean in her seat.
"Hey!" Candlehead would reply.
"Anyway…she's obviously going to try to paint us as the violent aggressors…and her as the Princess trying to protect the game and trying to end this peacefully…" Torvald would continue. "And we can't have that…"
"So why not just tell them what happened?" Taffyta would ask.
"Because if I did Vanellope would easily mold whatever I said to paint her in a positive light…" Torvald would reply.
"So why not act like they were before? Why not get aggressive and knock a few out now and gain the number advantage?" Minty would ask.
"That's a one-way ticket to execution Minty!" Sticky would stare at her sister shocked before continuing. "She killed almost everyone at this table for less than that!"
"So? If I go down I might as well take as many with me as possible.
Taffyta and Crumbelina would nod slightly Torvald not noticing it.
"Enough! Minty we're not doing that…if we did Vanellope would turn Lodhi, Akio, Phipps, Marcy and Annie to her side so quickly we wouldn't have time to adjust…then we'd find ourselves in the Fungeon awaiting execution with no hope of coming back…I guarantee it…"
"So, what's your plan for tomorrow Torvald?" Gloyd would ask.
"Simple…race…wait for Vanellope to become impatient and try to turn the new 5…then simply reveal to them she's not the saint she wants them to see her as…"
"Anything else?"
"Yes…do not and I repeat do not go starting anything against Vanellope…her minions or any of the news racers…-she'd look at Herschel-…and do not start useless argument over which racing series is better…"
"But NASCAR…" Herschel would start before Torvald would cut him off.
"I don't care if you think one is superior! Let them get away with it for now! After Vanellope is dealt with school them as much as you want! Understand?!"
Herschel would silently nod.
She'd take a few deep breathes. "Sorry for being a little an edge…I just don't feel like Vanellope getting the advantage again…you can all go home…"
Minty, Taffyta, Crumbelina and Gloyd would silently leave as Torvald would look at the table.
"You alright sis?" Sticky would ask.
"I'm fine…"
"We both know that's a lie…" Candlehead would rub her shoulder. "What's wrong?"
"I just want to make it through this nightmare…and there she is wanting to do one of the very things that will get us all killed…"
"Look we're all very upset over dying twice in the passed 2 months…that's probably what's gotten to her…I'm sure tomorrow she'll be fine…she just need time to get it out of her system…" Candlehead would reassure her.
"Boy do I hope your right Candlehead…" Torvald would reply.
Herschel would clear his throat. "Sorry for getting a little childish…but we're with you all the way Torvald…you can bet that Candlehead, Sticky and myself will always stick by your side…no matter what happens…"
Torvald would look up from the table. "I needed to hear that…thanks…"
Herschel would smile. "No problem…"
He'd get up and leave Sticky and Candlehead following closely behind as Torvald would sigh.
"Boy do I hope Minty doesn't start anything…"
She'd get up from the table when her phone would ring.
"Hmm?" She'd be shocked to see it's from Sour Bill.
"What do you want Bill?"
Instead of the normal depressed tone he'd speak in a nervous/terrified one. "Get to the castle quick…I know this might sound like a trick but I just uncovered something that puts the whole game at risk!"
"What are you talking about?" Torvald would reply a little concerned.
"Get over here…it's in the game's code…you have to see it to believe it!" Sour Bill would respond.
Torvald would hesitate for a moment. "I…I'm on my way…"
(A few minutes later)
Torvald would cautiously approach the gates where Sour Bill would be waiting a terrified expression on his face.
"Finally!"
"What's wrong?" Torvald would ask.
"Follow me…"
"And how should I know this isn't a trick?" Torvald would cross her arms.
She'd be shocked when Sour Bill would suddenly pass her a gun. "I swear to you on my code I'm not lying…if you think I am shoot me now…but this game is at risk…"
After a few moments Torvald would toss the gun back to him. "Show me what's the problem…"
Sour Bill would run inside and she'd follow him.
He'd open the door to the game's code and tie a rope around himself. "It's bad…very bad…"
He'd jump in as Torvald would tie a rope around herself and follow him in.
He'd float over to the codes of the racers as Torvald would join him.
"When I was ordered to bring you back I discovered something that terrified me…" Sour Bill would begin moving the code boxes.
"And that was?" Torvald would ask.
He'd move a few more code boxes to reveal the codes boxes of Vanellope, Rancis, Adorabeezle, Jubileena, Nougetsia, Citrusella, Snowanna and Swizzle but instead of them being pink with bright letters they'd be dark blue with bright yellow letters.
"Wait…what's wrong with their codes?" Torvald would ask concerned.
"I was thinking the same thing…then I realized…" He'd flip through a chart and show her a certain kind of virus. "A virus infected them…"
Torvald would cross her arms. "Am I really supposed to believe that?"
Sour Bill would give her the chart. "Remember that game called "Charges and Mayhem?"
"I remember players saying it was just a violent bloodbath of a game…" Torvald would reply.
"Remember what happened to it?"
"Yea it was unplugged…"
"Do you know why?" Sour Bill would ask.
Torvald would shake her head. "All I heard was that it was unplugged…"
"They were infected with a virus just like this…it turned them violent…feeding on their greatest desires…and guess what Vanellope's was?"
"Revenge…"
"Exactly…I even pinpointed the exact date that the virus first appeared in her code…"
"When was that?"
"The night she tried to commit suicide by jumping off the Rainbow Bridge…it found it's way into her code and slowly made her into the psychotic person she is now…"
Torvald would look at him suspiciously. "Then why are the other code boxes like that?"
"Remember one of the weakest characters of the game? He infected/corrupted people to the point they were blindly loyal…mostly because his greatest desire was to be the best character in the game…since he was infected first and had access to the code he got his wish…he tortured and maimed those against him…this led to players boycotting the game since all the best characters were never playable…and the reason they were unplugged…"
"That makes no sense then…if Vanellope desire is for revenge…why the hell is she doing all this?"
"Because I told her what happened to that game…and even though she wants most of you dead…she wants to race…she even specifically chose which racers would be on her side in this"
"How?"
"By how much the players like them…sure your side has some of the more popular characters…her racers are loved and used frequently every time they make the roster…she knows she can afford to discard your entire side…"
"Then why hasn't she done that?"
"Even I don't know why…and that scares me…"
"And having 5 new racers thrown into the mix doesn't help…"
"No, it does not…and there's something about them…" Sour Bill would pause for a moment.
"What is it?" Torvald would ask.
Sour Bill would move more code boxes to show those of Lodhi, Akio, Phipps, Marcy and Annie all half dark blue and half pink. "It's already starting to spread to them…"
"How?"
"I don't know yet…but if Vanellope were to sway them in the next couple of days it'll be the end for you and everyone who ever helped you…"
"Is there any way to stop this?" Torvald would ask.
"I had already started making something to destroy the virus…but I'll need more time to finish it…"
"How long?"
"Unsure…just do whatever you can to stay alive…"
"I'll most certainly still be alive…but you better hope your solution to this works…"
"Ok…I'll let you go now…"
Torvald would be pulled back by an Oreo guard and would rush out of the castle.
She'd run all the way back to her home trying to process what she heard. "He's lying…there's just no way…there's just no way…but…better to be safe than sorry…but I can't tell anyone…that would just cause panic and chaos…"
Vanellope would stand on her balcony looking over Sugar Rush when Sour Bill would enter her room.
"Did she buy it?" She'd ask her back facing him.
"Indeed, she did…luckily no one truly knows why that other game was unplugged…nor the reason none of the characters made it out in time…"
"Then I have 1 of 2 plans in motion incase things don't go according to plan…" Vanellope would watch the moon slowly rise
"What is your plan?" Sour Bill would ask.
"As I told everyone else…you'll find out in due time…" Vanellope would reply.
"Care to explain how you made the code boxes look like they were infected by a virus?"
Vanellope would chuckle. "I have my ways Bill…ways that I intend not to share…"
"Ok…"
"Make sure everything is ready if I have to resort to plan C…then you are dismissed for the night…"
Sour Bill would bow. "Yes Princess…" He'd leave the room.
Vanellope would look up at the stars as Rancis would walk up and lean against the railing beside her.
"Everything ready?" He'd ask
"Indeed, they are…" Vanellope would reply
"So tomorrow should be easy?" He'd look at her
"If everything goes according to plan…should go smoothly…but I hope they at least resist a little…" She'd turn to him.
"Why?"
"Because it's more fun that way…"
"It seems you've been enjoying yourself over these pass 2 months…"
"I'll admit I have…but sadly it's coming to an end…but I'll enjoy the ending anyway…"
"What do you think of the new 5?" He'd ask as he'd take off his hat and throw it into the room.
"From what I've red and seen…they seem to be a nice bunch…they'll integrate well…especially if things go my way…"
"And their abilities on the track?"
"They'll be front runners…that's a guarantee…"
"More like definite top 8 finishers…which means I'm even more fucked…"
Vanellope would chuckle. "Could never find a way around my glitching…could never find a way to keep Herschel behind you…and you never escape getting hit by Adorabeezle…now add 4 very strong powerups…and an ability to steal powerups…you have one hell of a hill to climb…"
"Definitely…but I'll give it my all anyway…"
"Like you always do…"
"Yup…hopefully Adorabeezle won't focus on me…"
"If she doesn't your halfway there right off the bat…"
"Yea…"
(Meanwhile)
Minty, Crumbelina and Gloyd would sit down in Minty's living room.
"Torvald didn't let me finish and I didn't explain it right…yes I wanted to take a few of them out…but not make it obvious…" Minty would start before Taffyta would cut her off.
"What do you mean?" Taffyta would ask.
"Make it look accidental…take the last tournament when we made them crash but it looked by accident…Vanellope and her side couldn't really retaliate…but when Gloyd deliberately injured Adorabeezle they hit you back hard…"
"What are you trying to say?" Crumbelina would cross her arms.
"Torvald's worried about Vanellope using whatever we might do to sway the 5 newbies…but if one of her racers just so happens to crash and get injured 'accidently' she won't be able to use that…and if one of her racers just so happens to retaliate…to the newbies they'll look like the violent ones who at the slightest and vague justifications will try to take us out…and that's something Vanellope can't turn around…"
"So, saying we do this…who'd be the prime target?" Taffyta would ask.
"I'd say Adorabeezle since she seems to be Vanellope right-hand man…or women I should say…" Minty would reply.
"How would she go down?" Crumbelina would lean on her chair.
"Simple common accident…going in for a tight turn someone bumps wheels with her…and we all know she's a late-breaker and goes into most turns really fast…spinning out at those speeds would definitely have bad consequences…especially if she hits a wall and/or another racer…" Minty would take a swig of soda.
"Before we do that let's wait and see who those 5 newbies believe…Torvald or the psychotic princess…" Taffyta would state.
"Fine by me…" Minty would lean in her chair
(15 minutes later)
Gloyd would get a call from Torvald. "Yes Torvald?"
Torvald would respond in her normal calm tone. "Think you could get into the game's code through your computer? I would just like for everyone to get a view of their files before the races tomorrow…"
Gloyd would rub his eyes. "I'll see what I can do…"
"Thanks, Gloyd…see you tomorrow…" Torvald would hang up.
Gloyd would open his computer. "Back to the grind I guess…"
(Meanwhile)
All the citizens and most of the racers would be asleep as Marcy, Akio, Phipps, Lodhi and Annie would meet at the outskirts of the village.
"You guys wanted to talk…why and about what?" Annie would ask.
Phipps would look over at Akio. "You messaged us…what's wrong bro?"
Akio look at the 4 pairs of eyes glued on him. "Did any of you feel something was up? When we were introducing ourselves…there was tension…I could see it…"
All 5 would look around to make sure no one is eavesdropping.
"I noticed…" Marcy would state.
"When Gloyd told me the reason he was paralyzed I saw him look at Jubileena for a split second…like he wanted to say something but decided not to and lie…I have a feeling Jubileena has something to do with him being in a wheel chair…" Phipps would add
Lodhi would clear his throat. "And his story does not pan out…his safety straps vouldn't have failed like zat…sure zey fail from time to time…but to be zrown immediately from ze kart takes someone's intervention…his straps vere sabotaged…and Jubileena had somesing to do vith it…"
"I also notice them standing in 2 large groups…Adorabeezle, Jubileena, Nougetsia, Citrusella, Snowanna, Swizzle and Rancis were behind Vanellope…Minty, Sticky, Herschel, Gloyd, Taffyta, Candlehead and Crumbelina were all standing behind Torvald…each side exchanging glares…something happened…and it split the roster into 2 sides…" Annie would take off her hat and rub a hand through her hair.
"I agree with you Annie…something went down…and both sides didn't want to say anything about it…" Phipps would stretch.
"So, what do we do?"
"After the races tomorrow…we could try asking…or simply wait for them to tell us…" Akio would adjust his hat before continuing. "Both sides will probably be bias if we ask though…"
"I'm already betting on Vanellope's side being the good side…she seemed nice, peaceful and laid back while Crumbelina, Minty and Taffyta looked like they wanted to kill some of them…and would if we weren't there…" Annie would add.
"Tomorrow…just race…vatch your backs…and ve'll sort zis out…" Lodhi would yawn
(The following morning)
Taffyta, Gloyd, Crumbelina, Candlehead, Herschel, Sticky and Minty would all get a skype call from Torvald
"Yes?" They'd ask in unison
"We have a few things to go over about the new characters before the races…where do we meet up?"
Crumbelina would yawn. "My place…"
"So, we all meet there in an hour?"
"Sure"
"Ok"
"Didn't have anything special planned anyway…"
"Ok see you guys in an hour…" Crumbelina would hang up as Candlehead would sit up.
"Going back to sleep sleepy head?" Candlehead would ask with a smile.
"Yea…while you shower I'll sleep a little more…"
Candlehead would roll her eyes. "Of course, you should try sleeping more at night…"
"It's difficult since you take over the bed Candles…"
"Haven't heard complaints from you…especially when I so happened to roll onto you…"
Crumbelina would blush. "Just thought it was obvious…"
Candlehead would nod. "Sure…" She'd get up and go in the bathroom
Crumbelina would call Minty. "Just to make sure last night wasn't a dream we agreed to take Adorabeezle out when we figure out which side the newbies take right?"
"That's what we had agreed to Crumbs…" Minty would reply
"Ok…just making sure…" Crumbelina would hang up when she'd hear the water start running
She'd hear Candlehead humming. "Ok so you're in there…"
She'd quietly enter the bathroom and quietly enter the shower
"Hey Candles…" She'd poke Candlehead and would laugh when Candlehead would jump almost hitting the ceiling
"Crumbs! That scared me!" Candlehead would breath heavily "Your supposed to be asleep…"
"Couldn't get back to sleep…"
"So, you decide to come scare me?"
"Admit it…you like that I'm in here…" She'd kiss her
(With Sticky and Herschel)
Sticky would be getting dressed as Herschel would cook
"Herschel can you promise me one thing?" Sticky would ask from upstairs
"Promise what?"
"No matter what the new racers say…no matter what they do…do not react…even if they just flat out state Formula 1 is better than NASCAR…"
"I already promised Torvald I wouldn't…"
"This is different Hersch…you could regain Torvald's trust if you broke a promise…but you'd never regain my…are we clear?"
"Yes…super clear…"
Sticky would walk down the stairs. "Sorry…but with what's on the line…if those new racers joined Vanellope…we could pretty much bury ourselves…we'd be dead in less than a week…and I can't handle anything like that again…"
Herschel would finish cooking and hug Sticky
"Don't worry Whip…I understand…besides small talk you won't here a peep out of me…"
Sticky would hug him tight. "Cross your heart?"
"And hope to die…"
(Meanwhile)
Adorabeezle, Jubileena and Nougetsia would join Citrusella at her place for breakfast
"Nice of you to make breakfast for us Cit…" Jubileena would sit at the table.
"Meh I figured you didn't want something frozen for once."
Jubileena, Citrusella and Nougetsia would laugh
"Really?" Adorabeezle would ask
They'd laugh for a few minutes before stopping.
"I'm sorry pop…but that was funny…" Jubileena would state
"Yea I know Jube…"
Nougetsia would drink a glass of juice. "You 2 excited for the races today?"
"Yea…" Adorabeezle would respond
"I am…no matter what Gloyd says…I'm racing…and if he does something stupid we'll welcome 5 new racers to our side
"Don't worry Jube…the newbies will be on our side within 2 days anyway…and by that point in time Torvald's side will have 2 options…surrender and face punishment…or die…" Citrusella would reassure her sister as she'd finish cooking and bring everything to the table.
"Hopefully that orange crippled prick gets what's coming to him…" Jubileena would state
"Who do you think we'll take option 1 and who will take option 2?" Nougetsia would ask
"Herschel, Candlehead, Sticky and Torvald will definitely take option 1…Minty would take option 2…she's that fucking stupid and has a nerve to criticize Candlehead…Crumbelina would take option 1…since she wouldn't want to part from Candlehead…or jeopardize her safety…Gloyd…there's no sparing him…and Taffyta…the princess will enjoy killing her again…" Adorabeezle would respond
"Confident in that answer?" Citrusella would ask.
"110%" Adorabeezle would reply
"You think any of them would be dumb enough to come after us?" Jubileena would ask
"If they felt like committing suicide and taking their team with them…" Citrusella would drink some juice
(15 minutes later)
They'd finish and Citrusella would put the dishes in her dishwater as Nougetsia, Adorabeezle and Jubileena would sit in the living room
"The princess must be doing something important to have not called us to the castle yet…" Nougetsia would state.
"Good…gives us time to talk about a certain something…" Adorabeezle would look at Nougetsia
"What are you talking about?" Citrusella would walk into the living room
"You think your bright red cheeks went unnoticed Cit?" Jubileena would chuckle
Adorabeezle would look at the glass sliding door. "Oh, there are the newbies…"
They'd all look over to see Lodhi, Phipps, Akio, Marcy and Annie already in there racing suits discussing something in Marcy's garage
"Who are the lucky guys?" Jubileena would ask as Citrusella would look away blushing
"Or girls…you never know Jube…" Adorabeezle would add not noticing Nougetsia blush even more
Citrusella would tap her cheeks abit. "I don't have a crush…"
"Then explain your red face…" Adorabeezle would ask
"Allergies…"
"Bullshit Cit…your not a good liar you know…" Jubileena would laugh abit
Citrusella would sigh and look at the group of new racers
"Which is the lucky one?" Jubileena would ask
Citrusella would blush even more. "It's Akio…something about him…I fine him…perfect…"
"Fall for looks?" Jubileena would ask
"No…just the way he carries himself…Vanellope told me he's quiet…polite…unlike a few mentionable guys… plus…we locked eyes when we shook hands…and he blushed even more than me right now…"
"Which says something cause your redder than a Cherry Bomb…" Adorabeezle would comment
Nougetsia would sigh. "I'm not telling…"
"Why?" Jubileena would ask
"You'll compare me to Adorabeezle…"
"What?" Jubileena would be surprised
"Nougetsia…we might be identical twins…but besides that we're unique in a way that we can't be compared…" Adorabeezle would rub Nougetsia's shoulder "So who is it?"
"Only 1 had a Brazilian accent…"
"Marcy…wait…you have a crush on Marcy?"
Nougetsia would nod blushing even more
"Why did you think I'd compare you and pop on that?" Jubileena would ask
"Because we both like girls…we've hid that for 15 years…and we both got shy as fuck trying to admit our feelings…"
"You do have a point…but that's not important…"
"Care to go talk to them?" Adorabeezle would ask
"No!" Citrusella and Nougetsia would reply in unison
Jubileena would chuckle. "Ask Adorabeezle…being shy will never work…besides…you'll have the best wing girls waiting on the sidelines to help you out incase you need it…"
Citrusella would sigh. "This won't end well…"
"Wanna risk Torvald getting to them?" Jubileena would ask
"Of course not!"
"Then let's go…"
Jubileena would lead them out of the house as Nougetsia and Citrusella would stop for a brief moment to make the blushing go down slightly
"So here's what you could try doing…try having a one on one chat with them…see where they're at and all that…" Jubileena would state
"Best wing girl…" Nougetsia would reply sarcastically
"Ok…go wing it then if you don't want my advice…"
Lodhi, Marcy, Akio, Phipps and Annie would be talking about F1 as usual
"Mercedes power or Renault power?" Marcy would ask holding in a fit of laughter
Annie would chuckle. "Mercedes power…that's no fucking contest…that's like heavyweight vs feather weight…"
"Mercedes power or Ferrari power?" Phipps would ask
"Zat's an excellent question…zey seem even so far zis season…" Lodhi would rub his chin
"Yea…and Mercedes doesn't have a large lead over Ferrari in the constructor's championship…if Lewis Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas happen to crash in Singapore and Sebastian Vettel and Kimi Räikkönen finish first and second…Ferrari would surpass Mercedes…" Annie would add
"Ok…think Racing Point/Force India could beat McLaren in the constructor's championship?" Phipps would ask
"Easily…they've scored 32 points in 2 races and are just 20 behind McLaren…" Marcy would reply
"Think they can catch Haas and Renault?" Annie would ask
Marcy would fall silent for a few moments. "It'd be nearly impossible…but they could theoretically catch Haas…and if they got a miracle could maybe catch Renault…but it would take both teams getting fucked in the races left…"
"Either way Sauber and Toro Rosso have been disappointing thus far…" Annie would adjust her hat
"I'm surprised Renault has been doing so vell…I zought Toro Rosso and Haas vould be dominating zem…" Lodhi would drink a soda
"Even though they'll never catch Mercedes, Ferrari and Red Bull…Renault is the best Midfield team…" Marcy would stretch
Adorabeezle, Jubileena, Nougetsia and Citrusella would walk into the garage
"What do you mean midfield?" Jubileena would ask
Marcy would look at her. "Oh I just categorize teams depending on how good they are and where they tend to finish…"
"Oh…you have 2 or 3 categories?"
"3…1st category is frontrunners…obviously Mercedes, Ferrari and Red Bull fall in that category…2nd category is midfielders…I put Renault, Haas and Force India here…3rd category is back markers…which are Toro Rosso, Sauber, McLaren and…-she'd chuckle-…fucking Williams…"
"Ah Williams…a great team in the early 90's that stayed competitive up till the end of the century…that went to shit fast…" Adorabeezle would chuckle
"I know right?" Annie would chuckle
"So vot brings you here?" Lodhi would ask
"Oh nothing…but you all seem to have gotten up early…" Adorabeezle would state
"Meh…-Annie would shrug-…I woke up bright and early and the first thing that came to my mind were the races today…and I couldn't get back to sleep…"
Jubileena would poke Citrusella. "Go on…" She'd whisper
Citrusella would hesitate.
"Common Cit…or I'll straight up tell him you love him…"
Citrusella would look outside. "Sure is nice outside…want to talk a walk Akio?"
"Sure…" Akio would reply immediately much to the surprise of him siblings
They'd look at him dumbfounded as he'd get up and leave the garage by Citrusella's side
"We've been trying to get him to talk for the past 2 hours…how the fuck does she get him to talk with one god damn sentence?!" Annie would watch them leave
"No idea…" Jubileena would reply as Adorabeezle would tap Nougetsia shoulder. "Don't make the mistakes I made…"
"Hey Marcy…could we take a walk too? I wanted to know more about Ayrton Senna…I heard he's the greatest driver of all time…"
Marcy would jump out of her chair. "Sure! Let's go…" She'd walk out followed closely by Nougetsia as Phipps and Lodhi would bite their tongues
"Something wrong you 2?" Adorabeezle would ask as she'd grab a chair and sit down
"Yes Prost was Senna's equal if not superior rival…" Phipps would state
"Michael Schumacher is ze greatest of all time…" Lodhi would cross his arms
"Look let's bring the topic back to today's and perhaps some F1…" Jubileena would sit beside Adorabeezle
(Meanwhile)
Citrusella would silently walk beside Akio
"When is the race starting?" Akio would ask
"Soon Akio…soon…"
"Argh! I need to get behind the wheel! I've had the urge since 6 this morning!"
"It's 9…have you really been up for 3 hours?"
"Yes, and it's killing me!"
Citrusella would chuckle. "You seem to talk more alone…"
Akio would shrug. "I'm just like that…"
Citrusella would tap her chin with 1 finger. "Mine telling me more about Mansell and Fangio?"
"With pleasure…" Akio would state with a smile
(Meanwhile)
Marcy would walk beside Nougetsia who'd look away from her
"You seem rather shy…" She'd state
"I have something to ask…" Nougetsia would rub the back of her head
"Ask away…"
"What's your opinion…honest opinion…on same sex couples?" Nougetsia would still look away from her blushing more
"I don't get why people have a problem with that…your allowed to love whoever you want to love…I'm all for hat stuff…"
"Really?"
"Yea…I assume you asked for a reason…"
"Yea…my sister Adorabeezle is with Jubileena…while Crumbelina is with Candlehead…"
"Ok."
"So how do you like the guys?"
"There nice…most are taken…but they don't really interest me…"
"So, you like girls?"
"I didn't say that…I just said the boys in this game don't really appeal to me…" Marcy would reply as Nougetsia wouldn't notice her blushing
"So, it's boys then?"
"Can this wait till after the races?"
"Sure…"
(Meanwhile)
Crumbelina and Candlehead would be finishing breakfast as Torvald, Minty, Sticky, Herschel, Taffyta and Gloyd would arrive
"What did you want to discuss?" Crumbelina would ask
"I had Gloyd get the files of the 5 new racers…just to get a preview of them…" Torvald would turn to Gloyd "Show them…"
Gloyd would open his computer "So beside them being modelled after F1 legends…they have some pretty overpowered powerups…Annie can fucking steal ours for fucks sake…" He'd turn his computer to the group to let them read the files of the newcomers.
Crumbelina's jaw would nearly hit the floor. "Bombs, mines, stealing, missiles and a fucking tank?! What in the literal fuck were the developers thinking?!"
"So, if Lodhi gets his tank…he could easily just fall down to last…then proceed to destroy everyone and win the race…" Minty would cross her arms
"He could but if you red his description you know he doesn't do that and considers it beneath him…" Torvald would reply
"If anyone's overpowered…it's Annie…she could easily screw anyone of us over…" Sticky would look up from the computer screen
"Either way…on the track…on paper they're meant to be frontrunners and nearly unbeatable…" Taffyta would state
Herschel would smirk. "More fun that way…the harder the challenge the better the win…"
Torvald would unjust her bow. "Anyway…today should be easy…just race like usual…don't start anything…get involved in anything…and no way under any circumstances do anything that Vanellope might mold into something to make us look bad…got it?"
Everyone would nod
(20 minutes later)
Everyone would arrive at the Silverstone circuit
"Finally! We can race!" Marcy would shout
"Whoa calm your horses…" Vanellope would state
"Why?!"
"We need to determine how will line up for the race…would you prefer a randomizer? Or draw names from a hat? Or pick where we start?"
All 5 rookies would give Herschel a quick glare
"We start in the bottom 5 and NASCAR boy starts first…" Annie would state
"Why?" Herschel would ask
"It'll make beating you that much sweeter…"
"How many laps?" Vanellope would ask
"20…don't worry…you'll see that laps tend to be done quickly…" Phipps would state
"Ok…I guess that's everything…"
Marcy, Phipps, Akio and Annie would take off for their karts fast enough to leave a cloud of dust in their wake
"Wow…" Everyone except Lodhi would say in unison
Lodhi would look at Herschel. "You may zink zat zere is no overtaking in F1…but if you zink like zat during ze race…you in for a rude avakening…"
"Don't worry…I fully expect you guys to catch up in no time…and I'll be waiting…"
Lodhi would chuckle. "You better Aussie…" He'd put on his helmet and head for his kart
Everyone would go to their karts and do one last check as the starting positions would appear on a large screen set up next to the starting line above the pit lane

"Hey Jubileena!" Gloyd would shout
Vanellope's side would grin
Torvald's side would look nervously at Gloyd
"Yea Gloyd?" Jubileena would ask hiding her grin
Gloyd would point to her shoes. "You forgot to tie your shoelaces…"
Jubileena would look down. "Oh…thanks Gloyd…" She'd kneel down and tie them. "Fuck I thought I had him…"
Torvald's side would breath a quick sigh of relief
Lodhi, Marcy, Akio, Phipps and Annie would attach their HANS systems to their helmets and safety belts when Rancis would speak through his microphone
"Those are fairly recent…those didn't exist in the time of all your karts…"
"We know…but you know the developers…they won't be historically accurate on certain things…and this is a time that I agree with them…" Phipps would reply
Annie would notice a glowing blue button on her steering wheel which she'd press.
"Hey Annie…it's your pit crew…-she'd look over to the pits and see them waving-…when we need to say something the button will flicker…got it?"
Annie would give them a thumbs up and press the button again. "Ok so the blue glowing button on all your steering wheels is to talk to your pit crews…put since this isn't a realistic mode race…I doubt we'll need them…"
"Never know Annie…especially if you choose to crash into someone…" Marcy would glance at her sister
"Bite me…" Annie would reply
Phipps would look up to see Snowanna looking right at him
He'd wave and she'd wave back giving him a wink
The normally calm cool-headed racer's cheeks would suddenly turn red
"Snowanna…stop…I'm trying to focus…"
Snowanna would chuckle "I'm just looking behind me…" She'd turn back around tapping her cheeks to make her blushing go away
Minty and Crumbelina would exchange quick glances
Lodhi would look at Torvald positioned to his right and slightly ahead
Torvald would look at him and they'd stare at one another
Both racers wouldn't say a word as they wouldn't be able to look away
They'd both would blush slightly
"…Good luck Torvald…" Lodhi would finally speak
"Good luck Lodhi…" Torvald would reply
They'd both look ahead
"Damnit Torvald you don't have time for that now…not when Vanellope holds all the cards…" Torvald would glance at Lodhi for a split second then look back ahead of her. "Besides…he was probably only staring wondering why I was staring at him…"
Lodhi would grip his steering wheel tight talking to himself. "Focus…focus….focus…-he'd keep thinking of the stare-…just zos eyes…zere vere like stars…-he'd smack his helmet-…stop…you've got a race to vin!"
"Why did you hit you helmet Lodhi?" Phipps would ask
Lodhi would fall silent for a few moments. "Just started hearing a whole bunch of static…"
5 red lights would appear above the track
The racers would begin revving their engines
