"Wha? Oda, quit eating the bridge! Pfft! Haha!"

Oda looked up at Vanellope, her mouth full of the hard, multi-coloured candy that made up the very first aspect of Sugar Rush any character saw when entering the game. She swallowed the sweet, tangy substance before chirruping softly as Vanellope jumped on top of her back.

"Tarry ho, my noble steed!" the candy president chanted, quoting a storybook she'd read in the castle library. Oda 'chuckled,' and proceeded to trundle forward and down the rainbow bridge, her long form making a snaking trail as she moved.

"Look! Look! There's Candlehead!" Vanellope yelled, pointing to a birthday cake themed cart that was zooming along a chocolate powder road. "Come on, let's go say 'hi!'"

In response, Oda tittered softly and quickened her pace in the direction Vanellope was pointing. Before they reached the other candy girl, Vanellope jumped off of the Cy-Bug's hard-shelled back and rushed over to her friend.

"Hey, Candlehead!" she hollered, waving her short arms frantically in an attempt to gain the other racer's attention. Said racer skidded to a halt just in front of her.

"Hey, Vanellope," Candlhead greeted, the candle on her helmet glittering. "How's it going? I haven't seen you much after hours."

"I've been visiting Hero's Doody recently," Vanellope chuckled. "There's a new character there, who I've brought round to visit."

"Really? Who?"

To answer her question, Vanellope marched back to where Oda, who had hung back a little and was contentedly chewing on some spearmint grass. When Candlehead saw her, she froze in shock, her big green eyes widening in fear.

"CH! Meat Oda!" Vanellope announced, causing Oda to look up and chirrup gently at the mention of her name. "Oda, I'd like you to meet Candlehead, but just call her CH. Say hi, Oda."

Oda chirped in Candlehead's direction, and if anyone had been able to accurately translate the chirps and squeaks she made, then it would have registered as 'hi CH!"

"Th-that's a Cy-Bug," Candlhead whispered, the fear easily distinguished in her voice.

"A tame one!" Vanellope explained. "She's really nice and won't bite. Come on, pet her."

Candlhead hesitated at first, but since she didn't want to annoy Vanellope, she inched forward and reached her hand out for the space between Oda's eyes. The large Cy-Bug gave a low purr and pushed her head against Candlhead's hand. When warm carapace made contact with soft skin, Candlhead let out a breath she didn't know she'd been holding. Smiling slightly, she petted the creature quite happily.

The contact sent warm shivers racing up and down Oda's spine, and she suddenly rolled onto her back. Candlhead squeaked in shock, yanking her hand back, but when Vanellope laughed and jumped onto the Cy-Bug's belly to tickle her gleefully, she giggled and joined in. Very soon, she'd lost all fear of the massive creature.

For the rest of the day, Oda was given an exclusive tour of Sugar Rush. She met quite a few other racers, and also forged some special friendships with most of them.

Life, as they often say, was sweet.

Hmm... this is a little... iffy, but I suppose it needed to stay short and sweet /shot

/revives

Well, pretty soon I'll be moving onto a larger WiR fanfic, not a drabblefic. I'll be continuing this though, don't worry. Stay Tuned for the first chapter of my newest story!

I just need to figure out a title... :T
