Chapter 15: The Interrogation
Vanellope's POV
I walk down the eerie hallway. At the end of the hallway, Jessie was standing there with an armchair and a bright light. "Please have a seat," she spoke with a voice as smooth as silk. Why does this feel like a scene from an old spy movie? I walk to the seat and sit down. When I sit down she turned on the light. "I'm going to ask you some questions. Just remember this is a secure area and nothing will be held against you," she said. I nodded and slumped down in the chair.
"Just so you know, I'm not really good with interrogations," I said.
"Good," she stated, "Then this is going to be easier than I thought. Now Vanellope, please state you full name."
"Vanellope von Shweetz," I sighed.
"The kids say you have a 'special power', is this true?" she continued to interrogate me.
"Yes," I simply say. She clearly couldn't hold in her excitement of figuring out our little secret.
"Oh, I can't take it anymore! Just tell me you secret," she cried.
"I'll have to ask my friends first," I reply.
She looked at me arrogantly and then said, "I'll send them in." Seconds later, my fellow sugar rush racers came into the room.
"How's it going, V?" Rancis asked.
I looked down in sorrow and said, "I think we should just tell them." Everyone gasped in shock. "Look guys, we were going to have to tell them sooner or later. I think we should just do it and get it over with," I said, looking to Rancis for support. He stepped toward me and said, "Lets do this." I happily hugged him. "Can you be there with me?" I squeaked out.
"Of course, sweetie," he said while hugging me back. We break apart and both walk back into the room.
"Sorry," Zuri, who I'm guessing was the guard, "This set is closed. Vanellope, you may enter.
"Please let me in," Rancis pleaded, "I promised V I'd be there for support."
"Very well," she said, exasperatingly. She stepped away from the door and we walked in.
"Are you ready to tell us your secret?" Jessie asked. I looked at Rancis and then confidently said, "Yes." She sat there and waited for my answer, but I was frozen solid. I looked to Rancis for some help. He nodded and then said, "Were video game characters."
