Chapter 8: The Pain! The PAIN!

DISCLAIMER: I DON'T OWN HOTEL TRANSYLVANIA OR WRECK-IT RALPH. HOTEL TRANSYLVANIA BELONGS TO SONY PICTURES ANiMATION. WRECK-IT RALPH BELONGS TO DISNEY.

A/N: Let's just assume that Sergeant Calhoun wakes up and she and Felix live together forever after. Ralph is still stuck somewhere. We'll find out in the next story.

Vanellope's POV

I woke up and looked around. I could still see in green pixels. 'Damn. I was hoping it would go away with my sleep.' I heard a knock on the door.

"Who is it?"

"It's me." I let Mavis in and she looked like she was about to crack up.

"What's funny this time?"

"Look at yourself." She burst out laughing and rolled around on the carpet. I did as she said and I realized I was back on the ceiling right above my own bed!

"Ah!" I lost my balance and fell. Luckily I was right on top of my bed.

"Hey, I have an idea! Why don't we go onto the roof?" She nodded and I swung myself out of the window. I landed on the side of the wall, near the roof, and I jumped the rest of the way.

"How did you learn to do that?"

"Do what?"

"Swing out of the room like that?"

"Dunno. It just came naturally."

"Huh." I noticed the sun coming up and I watched it rise. It was beautiful. The sun was rising over the hills in the distance and I smelt something burning. I sniffed for the source and I realised it was me! I jumped out of the sun's rays and I hid behind the chimney stack with Mavis. We peeked around the side and we watched it rise until it was clear of the hills then it hit me and I fell down, writhing in pain.
"Vanellope?"

"GET … HELP!" I watched Mavis run down into the hotel as I writhed in pain on the roof.

Mavis POV

I watched Vanellope writhe in pain on the roof and I quickly did as she asked. The only person I could think of was my dad so I ran to him. I supersped my way down the side of the building, into the cemetery and I got to the place where dad normally hangs out. At the monster festival. I got up to him and I pulled into an overhang that cast a shadow. I caught my breath and told him what had happened. He went back to the hotel while I caught my breath.

Vanellope's POV

I heard pounding feet and I looked up to see Dracula come to me. He picked me up and gently laid me down in my bed. He wordlessly went to get something. I looked at myself and I could see degree three burns all over me. I went into shock and I could feel myself slipping in and out of consciousness. I could barely breathe. Dracula came back and saw what was happening to me. He had some ointment and applied where the burns were worst. Mavis came in but by then I was unconscious.

Two days later …

Vanellope's POV

"Oh thank God! You're awake." Mavis said happily.

"Ugh. How long was I out?"

"About two days."

"TWO DAYS!"

"Yeah." Mavis said cringing a little bit.

"Oh yeah. In all the excitement I forgot to ask Dracula about something."

"What did you want to ask?" Dracula said. He walked in and I saw something in his hand.

"Do you know where I can get some candy?"

"Candy? Why would you want candy?"

"Fuel for my kart."

"Oh. I'll go get you some. How many do you need?"

"I need about ten bucket-loads of candy."

"That much? Okay. Ten bucket-loads it is." He went away to get them and I noticed something different about Mavis. I could see her normally again. In colour. I breathed a sigh of relief.

"Is everything alright?"

"Yes. Everything's fine." Before she could protest I began to get up but I cringed in pain as I got back into a sitting position. Dracula came back with a few suits of armor to carry the buckets.

"Thanks." I got them to follow me, cringing in pain the whole way, to where I stashed my race-kart. I told them to leave the buckets with me and the suits went away.

"Do you know anyone here who likes go-kart racing?"

"Yeah, I think Jonny does." I nodded and I began to put five buckets of candy in the tank and I put the other five in the back compartment.

"Can you get Jonny for me please?" She went away to get him. As I waited for them to get back I was wondering how I was going to tell them about me leaving.

"You wanted me?"

"Hm. Do you like go-karts?"

"Yeah!"

"Do you think you can find one?"

"Uh ... Yeah I think I can."

"Good. Find one and bring it back here so that we can have a race." He went off with Mavis in tow and they both went off to find some karts.

"Hey Dracula?"

"Yes …"

"Do you think you can find about eight more karts? I want this to be real race." He nodded and went off to do what I asked. I sat down on the hood and waited.

Two hours later …

Vanellope's POV

I saw Jonny and Dracula bringing the karts. Jonny and Mavis had one and Dracula had about eight. They were all driving towards me. I saw Dracula in one, Wayne in another, Frank, Murray, and suits of armor in the other four karts. Dracula's kart was all black, like him and it had cobwebs on the engine. Wayne's kart was furry, no surprises there, and it also had a spot just in front of him. In the spot sat Winnie, his only girl pup. Murray's was in the shape of a pyramid lying down. It had sand streaming off the sides. Frank's was a mish-mash of parts thrown together, sort of like him. The suits of armor all had the same. Metal. Jonny's was interesting, his kart had room for his backpack, snacks and other assorted things. His kart was painted blue and orange, an odd choice for colours. Mavis's kart was black with a few pink strips thrown in as well. When they all got to me I said:

"Well, who's ready for a race?"

Well, who's ready for a race? I know I am. Reviews are welcome.
