Chapter 3: Payback's a bitch
A.N. Thank you to all who reviewed and followed chapter 2. I am really happy the comedy and drama worked well together. Anyways, please enjoy Chapter 3 where Taffyta must deal with a pissed off President
Vannellope was fuming mad at the video she had just watched. She stomped over to Taffyta as Swizzle and Rancis attempted to stop her. But she shot them a glare that could kill a Cy-Bug. The two boys coward back in fear as they let Vanellope go to Taffyta. "YOU BETTER BE READY SISTER!" Vanellope shouted as she got in Taffyta's face. Taffyta shoved Vanellope back.
"All I know is you better get out of my face Miss Prissident," Taffyta replied as Snowanna and Gloyd got between them. Swizzle and Rancis got behind Vanellope just in case things turned ugly. The video screen flickered and restarted the video. Vanellope screeched and covered her ears.
(The Video)
The video started with a clip of Vanellope getting turned by Taffyta the night before. A caption scrolled on the bottom of the screen which read: Vanellope von Schweetz, President or crybaby? The screen then changed to Taffyta and a few members of her gang doing an interview.
Taffyta: Well I think Vanellope is just a sore loser, she can't handle losing by wrecking herself and blames the better driver
Snowanna: Yeah, all she does is claim how good she is, but then cries like al title priss when someone barely touches her kart
Candlehead: I think she's just a big meanie to the other drivers
The screen changed again, and this time showed a clip of Vanellope and Rancis kissing while cuddling. Taffyta's voice came through. "Plus she sleeps around like a slut with other guys," Taffyta's voice said as it then showed pictures of Vanellope hanging out with Swizzle, Ralph, and Felix.
Taffyta: Would you support a driver like this? Or would you support a driver who can take criticism like a woman and not a cry-baby bed pisser?
(End Video)
Taffyta, Snowanna, Candlehead, and Gloyd all laughed as Swizzle and Rancis escorted Vanellope away from the garage area. "I'll get her back, you know it!" She declared loudly to Swizzle and Rancis. Seeing Vanellope this angry scared the tar out of Swizzle and Rancis. Jubileena had followed, but was too scared to say anything.
"We know how upset you are Nelly, but violence isn't the answer," Rancis cooed softly. Vanellope scoffed and smacked his arm away.
"You would be thinking the same thing if Gloyd did that to you Rancis!" Vanellope shouted angrily at her boyfriend. Rancis was a bit hurt at her yelling, but covered it up. Rancis had to calm her down because he knew she just might try to execute Taffyta.
"Look Vanellope," Swizzle began, "it was sickening to see Taffyta go that low, but we don't need to stoop to her level. Let's just try to put this behind us and get her back by beating her on the racetrack," Swizzle finished. Vanellope looked around and calmed down. She felt lucky to have friends who cared about her this much, even if they kept her from killing Taffyta.
"Fine, but if she wrecks me again, or pulls this crap again, you'll have better luck calming down a rabid wolverine," Vanellope replied. As soon as they were sure she would't murder Taffyta, Swizzle, Jubieeina, and Rancis let Vanellope go back to set up for the race. Swizzle made his way over to the jumbo-tron and unplugged Crumbelina's camcorder. When no one was looking, he pulled out his screwdriver and carved a big FU onto the screen. "Hope you really liked that camcorder Crumbs," Swizzle joked and closed the camera.
"I might talk to Calhoun after tonight's race, or even before it," Rancis said to Minty, Adorabeezle, and Jubileena, "I think she could also talk to Vanellope to calm her down besides Ralph," he explained as all the racers pushed their karts to the starting grid before the arcade opened. Minty and Jubileena nodded and stood next to their karts, waiting for the arcade to open. Meanwhile, Vanellope was pushing her kart onto the starting grid when Taffyta knocked into her.
"Hey watch it Taffy! You don't want to mess with me now!" Vanellope warned with gritted teeth and a scary glare. Taffyta was unfazed and took her lollipop out of her mouth.
"I bet you liked that little advert we came up with," Taffyta mocked and flicked her lollipop into Vanellope's face. "And why would I mess with you, you can't walk the walk," Taffyta finished and blew Vanellope off. Vanellope was about to lay it all out on Taffyta when she remembered her promise to Ralph. She calmed down and settled for secretly flipping Taffyta off. The racers heard the stream of children flowing into the arcade and the quarter alert soon after. Two people, one boy in his late teens wearing a Pepsi hat and one girl in her mid twenties took the steering wheels of the game console.
"Ready for a schooling in racing Jenn?" The boy in the Pepsi hat teased. The girl flicked his hat off in response.
"Bring it on Mason," she replied with a tease. Mason picked Rancis and Jenn picked Vanellope. "You know, I always thought Rancis and Vanellope would go good together," Jenn said. Mason nodded in response and revved up Rancis' kart. Vanellope looked over at Taffyta and stared her down. Taffyta stuck out her fist and gave Vanellope the bird. When the light turned green, the fifteen racers took off. Rancis' first reaction was that the guy racing as him, was really good. Rancis looked behind him to see Vanellope just ahead of Taffyta. The girl controlling Vanellope was doing a superb job as well. But Taffyta was not making it easy, even with players, she made it hell for Vanellope.
"Take this you little whiner," Taffyta said quiet enough to where the players couldn't hear her. She repeatedly rammed the back end of Vanellope's kart, eventually loosening the back bumper. "Hey! Taffyta just took the back bumper off my kart!" Jenn said a bit mad. Mason looked over curiously and shrugged.
"Maybe the AI suddenly got more aggressive," he tried to answer. Rancis was watching his mirror to not let anything bad happen to his Nelly as they approached Gumball Gulch. However, he did not pay enough attention to the right side of his kart until Gloyd sideswiped him.
"What the fudge?!" Rancis said as he snapped back to the front. He saw Gloyd snickering up front in his Orange kart or whatever he called it. Mason sure noticed the sideswipe as well. "Holy crap, things are heating up, I like it," he said in a creepy tone and rammed Gloyd until he spun out. "That's how you school the AI," Mason said. Rancis silently cheered his player for wrecking Gloyd. The racers hit the jump and landed in Gumball Gulch. Rancis was in first while Adorabeezle was trying to fight off Snowanna for second. The two girls bumped and rammed each other hard as they tried to avoid the giant gummy balls of death.
"Come on Dora," Vanellope said quietly as she watched Snowanna desperately trying to put Adorabeezle into the path of a gumball. Things were going to get out of hand, she could tell. "Easy, easy," Vanellope said as Adorabeezle and Snowanna hit each other again, but this time, Snowanna leaned over and punched the side of Adorabeezle's helmet, causing her to lose focus. She looked up and saw a gumball right in front of her kart. She screamed as the obstacle hit her kart and sent her flying across Gumball Gulch and off course. Rancis saw what happened in his rearview mirror, and it pissed him off.
"Low life piece of fudge," he said angrily. He was beyond pissed that his friend just got taken out by a cheap ass move. Vanellope was thinking the same thing as she drove by a few scattered pieces of Adorabeezle's 'Rocket Pop'. "I can't believe this crap!" Vanellope screeched, but not loud enough for the players to hear. Even though the back bumper was missing, Vanellope was still fast thanks to her driving knowledge and because of Jenn playing as her. They cleared Gumball Gulch and reached the giant Birthday Cake. Meanwhile, Minty was having her own problems with Crumbelina. She was hitting Minty's rear end and loosening her kart up.
"I've heard of aggressive driving, but this is freakin' bull shit!" Minty shouted at Crumbelina. The fancy racer grinned evilly and gave Minty the finger. This was really grinding Minty's gears. She was having a hard time sticking to the plan Rancis came up with and not wrecking Crumbelina. Minty finally had enough and let Crumbelina take her position. However, Crumbelina sideswiped Minty's kart and made her kart get sideways. "Oh come on!" Minty said, pissed off horribly as she slid around the corners of the Birthday Cake. She regained control, but lost a ton of ground to Crumbelina.
"See ya Pansy!" Crumbelina called back while giving the finger. Crumbelina took off in the cannon, leaving Minty about four seconds behind her. Meanwhile, back up front, Rancis was still leading with Vanellope and Taffyta following. Swizzle had fallen victim to missing the jump after the cannon after tangling with Candlehead. "This is getting out of hand," Vanellope said to herself. Taffyta's gang had already taken out half of her gang, while only Gloyd had fallen victim to payback. As they neared the end of the race however, Snowanna, Taffyta, and Candlehead had both caught up with Vanellope and Rancis. "Oh crap, company!" Vanellope shouted. Rancis looked behind him and saw the trio ready to gang up on Vanellope and him.
"Come on Nelly, hang on," he said to himself. Vanellope, was in a rat's nest, unfortunately. She had Candlehead on her right, Snowanna on her left, and Taffyta behind her. They closed in on her and boxed her in. Jenn saw this was literally, her mouth hit the floor. "Okay, this is just messed up Mason, the AI does not get this aggress- aw crap!" she said as the trio of evil wrecked Vanellope into the trees off the track.
"SON OF A GUN!" Vanellope screeched as she lost control of her kart and smashed into a few trees. Her kart skidded to a stop and she coughed the dirt out of her mouth. The 'Wreck-It Mobile' was damaged badly. The front end was bent up and smoking, the wing on the rear deckled as snapped in half, and her front axle was sheared in half. Vanellope took off her helmet and threw it angrily in the seat of her kart.
"Okay now that's TOO FAR!" Rancis said as he watched Taffyta turn Vanellope with Candlehead and Snowanna. He brightened up a bit when Jubileena suddenly showed up like a bat outta hell with a pissed off expression. She slammed into Candlehead which vaulted her into Snowanna's kart, they collided hard and began to flip into the trees. "That's for wrecking my friends and my Swizzy!" She declared angrily. She gripped her wheel hard and slammed the throttle down hard, trying to get Taffyta, but the race was over before she got there.
"Congratulations, you win!" The game announcer said to Rancis and Mason. However, Rancis ditched the trophy and stomped over to Taffyta. "Um Jenn, I think the game is glitching, they never do this," Mason said as his screen had a trophy floating in mid-air with no Rancis hoisting it.
"Yeah, we better tell Mr. Litwak," she replied in disappointment as they both got up and left. Mr. Litwak didn't officially put the game out of order, but decided to give it a days rest. Yet, thing were not so peachy keen within the game. Vanellope made her way to the start/finish line to 'talk' with Taffyta.
"OKAY MUTTONFUDGE, YOU'RE DEAD!" Vanellope screeched to Taffyta. Taffyta turned around as Vanellope gave her a shove. Taffyta was taken aback before getting steaming mad. "Oh you want to play rough bitch?" Taffyta replied and shoved her back. Vanellope and Taffyta got in each other's faces, pointing and shouting at one another.
"I SHOULD KICK YOUR ASS FOR NOT ONLY WRECKING MY FRIENDS BUT FOR ALSO POSTPONING OUR GAME!" Vanellope shouted and poked Taffyta's chest. Taffyta grabbed Vanellope by her shirt collar.
"OH YEAH? YOU COULDN'T HURT A DAMN FLY WITH A HAMMER!" Taffyta shouted back. Vanellope grabbed Taffyta's arms and the two began to struggle. Fortunately, Rancis grabbed Vanellope and Gloyd grabbed Taffyta and pulled them apart.
"Come on Rancis, let me at her, she needs an ass kicking!" Vanellope shouted at her boyfriend. Rancis shook her and glared at her, "CALM DOWN NOW NELLY! YOU DON"T NEED TO WASTE YOUR TIME ON HER!" He shouted to her. Vanellope's red face drained back to her normal color as she calmed down. Vanellope kissed Rancis as a thank you. "You may have calmed me down this time Rancis, but if she does this again, I may go all out on her," she warned to Rancis.
"Please Nelly, I don't want you to get hurt, plus you made a promise to Ralph," Rancis said as they held each other. Swizzle was less than thrilled with Candlehead. "Hey Crackhead! Why the fudge did you just wreck me and Vanellope?" He demanded. Candlehead whirled around in surprise.
"What? I thought we were driving hard for fun and you just had too much fun!" She said in a bit of confusion.
"Don't play stupid, you're just like your Mommy! You and your entire group are nothing but a bunch of immature bithces!" Swizzle glared angrily at her. Candlehead's eyes began to water and her lip quivered. She burst into tears and ran off. Swizzle felt a faint twinge of guilt, but not enough to make him feel sorry. He felt a tap on his shoulder and he turned around only to find a fist contacting his nose. Snowanna punched him down and kicked his crotch.
"That's for hurting one of my home girls," she said as she stood over him. Swizzle groaned in pain as blood trickled down his nose. "And this is for calling us bitches," she continued as she lifted her foot to kick him again. But just as she was ready to kick him, Jubileena tackled her to the ground.
"HOW DARE YOU TOUCH MY SWIZZLE!" She screeched as she pummeled Snowanna. Everyone stopped their bickering and turned to see one of the sweetest girls in the game going ape shit on Snowanna. Adorabeezle and Minty pulled Jubileena off Snowanna and sat her down. Snowanna got up with a black eye and rubbed her jaw. Taffyta saw what unfolded and spun around to face Vanellope.
"Do you see what your group causes! Nothing but tearing everyone apart, nice going bitch!" She declared and spat in Vanellope's face. Vanellope was ready to beat her when Rancis got between them and shouted loudly, "ENOUGH! WE SHOULD SAVE IT FOR THE RACE TRACK PEOPLE. WE SHOULD TAKE THIS TIME TO COOL DOWN, NOT WASTE IT TRYING TO BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF EACH OTHER!" The two groups stared each other down before turning their backs on one another and ventured off. Most were battered and bruised (mostly Swizzle, poor guy) but they kept their chins up. Vanellope's group made it to her castle to rest. Vanellope poured everyone a drink of root beer. They all drank it in silence until Jubileena broke it.
"What do we do about this Vanellope? We can't let them keep pulling this crap on us," she said as she kissed Swizzle's nose softly."I feel better already babe," he smiled and kissed her back and snuggled up to her. Luckily, it wasn't broken, but it still hurt. Vanellope sipped her drink and walked over to her window. She stared out at Taffyta's house where their rival's karts were parked, The sun glared on Vanellope's face as she contemplated what to do.
"Right now guys, we need to defend ourselves, we need to prove we won't back down. At this moment: WE ARE AT WAR."
END CHAPTER 3
A.N.
Whew! What a chapter! Things have reached the boiling point folks. The groups are more torn apart than ever. If you think this is as intense as it gets, then you need to stop assuming crap. But anyways what did you guys think this time?
Rancis: Well good action and fight scenes, but I think Taffyta needs to get her ass handed to her
Vanellope: That video was just sick of her to do. I agree with my Rancy here.
Taffyta: Oh give me a break, you guys are just as guilty as us and you know it
Gloyd: If anyone is handing Taffyta's ass to her, it'll be me. (Grabs her rear)
Taffyta: (Squeal) Oh Gloyd I like it when you're kinky
Me: Okay too much get out!
Taffyta: You let the Prissy Pair make goo-goo eyes at each other
Me: Yeah, but they keep it appropriate and they are the good guys. Now get out! (Shoves them out) Chapter four coming soon! Don't forget to click that review button! The more I get, the faster I update!
