IF ANY OF YOU ARE WONDERING, THERE WILL BE A EPIC BATTLE BUT IT WILL TAKE A WHILE UNTIL THINGS ARE SET.

I do not own Wreck It Ralph or any of the video games mentioned.

SECRETS AND HINTS TO WIN

Ralph stood at Alpha's house worried that he hasn't come back yet. Alpha said he'd be back from Tappers an hour before the arcade opened. Right now, it was fifteen minutes before it opened and that got him to worry that he had done something stupid to get caught in a prank. Ralph had enough of waiting and didn't care if he was late to start the game, he had to find Alpha and see if he was alright.

Ralph ran straight for the train and ran right passed Felix who was coming to see if his friend was ready to start another day of wrecking. Felix was surprised that Ralph completely ignored that he almost ran him over, "Ralph! Where are you going? The Arcade is about to open!" he called out.

Ralph turned but continued to run backwards towards the train, "Sorry Felix but I have to go and try to find Alpha! He said that he would have been back an hour before the arcade opened!"

"But it's thirteen minutes until then," Felix said noticing the time.

"I know, something might have happened to him," he said.

He came up to the station just as Felix came right next to him, "I'm going with you then, if you think something bad has happened then I'm not letting you do this alone."

"Thanks," Ralph said gratefully.

Just then the train came down and both Felix and Ralph were shocked to see Alpha laying passed out on the seat as Vanellope tried to keep him up and from falling off the train.

As soon as the train stopped Ralph quickly picked up Alpha to check him over. Felix helped Vanellope out of the train, "Vanellope! What happened to the both of you?" He asked in concern.

"Vanellope, did Alpha get into trouble playing a prank?!" Ralph asked jumping to conclusions.

Vanellope put both her hands up in defense, "No, no, no! It wasn't any prank! He just uh…"

Ralph began to bring Alpha to his home until Alpha started to speak, "Whoa man, I didn't know Santa looked like a smelly lumberjack. Maybe that's how he made his reindeer. BURP!"

Ralph was assaulted by a wave of beer breath and cringed at the smell, "Oh geez kid, your breath smells like… BEER?!" Ralph said shocked.

Felix also took a look of shock as well, "Beer? Why does he smell like beer?"

They both turned to Vanellope who was starting to shrink back, "Uh, heh heh. I could um… explain?"

"Felix! Ralph!" Jean called from the building window, "Mr. Litwak is about to open the doors!"

Ralph quickly put Alpha in bed inside his house and turned to Vanellope with a scolding look. Vanellope smiled sheepishly, "After closing time, we are going to talk."

Vanellope gulped, "Yes sir."

"You better get back to Sugar Rush" Felix advised.

Vanellope did what she was told so not to escalate the problem. She quickly got on the train and left.

Ralph and Felix looked back at Alpha's home and shook their heads.

Flashback

Time was coming close for Alpha to head back to Fix It Felix Jr. Just as Vanellope and alpha was about to head out, a soldier from Hero's Duty got up from his stool, "Damn beer, I got to go takee a piss."

He left quickly towards the restrooms and left his half mug of beer on the counter. Vanellope saw the look in his eyes, "Oh no, you are not going to dare think of…" before Vanellope could finish her sentence, Alpha quickly took an switched his mug of root beer with the mug of beer without being caught by anyone else, "Alpha!" she shout whispered at him, "You can't drink that, you're still in a twelve year old body!"

"Oh don't be such a gummy bear and have a backbone. Besides, don't you ever wonder what the affects of beer could do to a kid?" Alpha asked disregarding her warning.

"I'm not stupid enough to be even more stupid." she retorted.

"Well sometimes adventures need to be taken by stupid people." Alpha said getting ready to drink the beer.

"Alpha I'm begging you!" She implored.

"Don't worry, it won't kill me and it won't cause the arcade and damage." Alpha said finding it ok to do.

Vanellope covered her eyes, "I can't watch."

"Bottoms up!" Alpha began to chug down the beer in big gulps.

Vanellope couldn't help but watch again as he finished the last of the beer and breathed a big breath after finishing it. She covered her mouth in worry about what Alpha just did.

Alpha then thumped his chest, "There you see I can handle anything."

Vanellope began to relax as Alpha showed no signs of the beer's affects, "So you feel normal?"

"If any thing I feel…" Alpha's pupils then grew almost to the size of his of iris and everything began to turn. He felt light as a feather and as carefree as a bird.

Vanellope saw the symptoms and knew that Alpha was drunk out of his mind. Quickly see grabbed him and glitches them both out to the closet. She then laid him back against the wall and sitting on a box, "Oh sweet mother of monkey milk, what am I going to do?"

"Stop with the talky walky," Alpha began to slur his speech, "I am sooooo happy and free as a turtle goomba."

Vanellope face palmed her face and tried to slap him out of it, "Come on Alpha, snap out of it. We need to get back to our games." she pleaded.

Alpha then caught her hand and smelled it. This made her freeze in place at the sudden act, "Angels smell like candy schweetz," He then lightly pressed her face together giving the fish face, "Wow pretty mermaid president princess looks like pretty." Vanellope knew it was the beer talking but it still made her beet red and make her temperature rise.

"Look dizzy face, you might not understand me right now, but I'm going to try to get you home and…"She was cut off by Alpha placing a finger over her lips and as she looked from his finger to him in surprised shock.

"Noise is too loud, want to go home in Wreck Up Felix Doctor." Alpha said drowsily.

Vanellope took it as a good sign that he was tiring out from the beer and she would get a chance to bring him home quicker, "Okay party animal, we're going to take you home."

She started to pull him up and walk him out. She would have called for help, but soon found the place deserted. The others had gone back to their games to get ready for opening. Vanellope blew her bangs in frustration, "You can never find help when you need it.

She lifted Alpha up and was heading to the exit, "Hey, hey Vanilla?" Alpha called.

She rolled her eyes irritated by his behavior, "What is it Alpha?" she grumbled.

"You are weird looking," he said in a drowsy tone. Alpha began to poke her face.

"Well thanks for thinking so goofy." She smirked.

"You know what I really, really like fairy person?" Alpha tried to speak.

"What do you like crazy face?" she amused.

"You," He said.

Vanellope froze as her heart just skipped a beat. She could not believe what she might have just heard. She knew he was drunk, but was there some truth to what he could have said? She should have just normally said that was gross and boys were gross with cooties, but she had felt a sudden urge to hear what he said again to her face. She just needed him to say it as he looked into her eyes for reasons she did not know. She placed him on his knees and got in front of him shaking him a bit to try to get him to repeat what he just said, "What did you say Alpha?!"

Alpha's head started to sway side to side, "Wha- what?"

"What you just said a second ago! What did you say you really liked?!" She demanded to know.

"O-ooooh tha-that yes." Alpha tried to remember, "I really… I really l-l-like…like uhhh."

"SPIT IT OUT YOU IDIOT!" She shouted.

"I really like…" he then stared right into her eyes and she was staring right back for reasons she did not know why. Alpha then took a deep breath, "I really like…sleep."

"Wait what?" she said stunned and confused.

Before Vanellope caught on to why he said that, "Thank you folks and good night." Alpha then fell back and passed out for good

Vanellope cursed at the timing for Alpha to pass out from the alcohol, "Son of a jawbreaker, licorice sucking, mint chewing, piece of butterfingers!" this was going to haunt her the rest of her life until she got a straight answer on what he said. That is if he remembered what he said after waking up.

She tried to wake alpha back up by shaking, yelling and slapping him, "Wait you dum dum head, wake up! What did you say before that!?" No matter how hard she tried, Alpha was out cold.

Now she had no choice but to drag his dead weight all by herself to Fix It Felix Jr.

End Flashback

Vanellope told them almost everything that happened when Alpha got himself drunk. She left out the parts where she blushed at certain things he said. Ralph and Felix admitted that it wasn't a total disaster to bring harm to the kids or the arcade. They guessed they would let this one go and hoped Alpha learned his lesson.

"Well button my chops, at least there was no real problems to cause an alarm." Felix said relieved at the turnout of the situation.

Ralph thought for a moment, "Maybe I could have him as a drinking partner when we head to Tappers again."

"Ralph!" Felix and Vanellope exclaimed.

"I'm just kidding you to. It was just a joke." He assured.

Felix got up from his seat, "Well all is well then."

"Wait what about Alpha?" Vanellope asked concerned about his waking condition.

"Don't worry I gave him a light tap on the head so he won't wake up with a head ache. Just make sure you keep an eye on him when he goes to Tappers again." Felix advised.

"Sure thing Felix." Ralph said letting him know they would handle it, "We should let Alpha sleep now," he led Vanellope out of Alpha's home and started to head towards his shack.

Vanellope then stopped Ralph by pulling his finger, "Ralph?"

He turned to his small friend, "What is it kid? I have to go wreck the building."

"Yes I know but I have something really important to ask you," she begged giving him the most pleading set of eyes yet.

Ralph could never refuse her when she gave the him the cute treatment, "Ugh, okay but after closing time alright?"

She quickly nodded, "I'll meet you at your shack!" she said before sprinting off back to her game.

Ralph watch her run off and shook his head with a slight chuckle, "Ah kids these days."

Later, Alpha just woke up from his sleep. He still felt a little dizzy from the night before but soon came to realize that he was somehow back at his house. Alpha quickly figured that Vanellope dragged him back home and, no doubted, told Ralph and Felix what he did. That might have explained why he didn't feel the effects of the hangover that everyone gets from passing out drunk. Felix must have hit him with his hammer to fix him as best as he could. Now Alpha wished that he customized himself to be a second playing partner to Felix and have his own magic hammer. "Some of the best things don't come out until you already invested in another game program." Alpha thought to himself in a pout.

Alpha then jumped out of bed and stretched to regain his strength back. Since the arcade was open, he decided to go to the Guitar Hero game and just rock out with the crowd. No one would see him and he would be getting a kick out of it. Maybe he could slide in some new songs he has heard from the internet. Thank the programmer for personal memory data.

FIX IT FELIX JR.

After closing time, Ralph met up Vanellope in his shack. He took a seat on his brick bed and placed her on his knee. He felt a little concerned for her for noticing how tense and uneasy she sat. He would have to try to listen closely and let her speak.

"Alright kid, what is it you want to talk to me about?" he asked to begin the conversation.

Vanellope kicked her feet back and forth nervously, "I, I think something is wrong with my code again."

Ralph started to overreact and assumed for the worst, "Did one of those little brats mess with your code!?" he demanded that she'd tell him.

Vanellope raised her hands trying to calm him down, "No, no, it's not that! No one messed with my code!" she quickly assured.

Ralph calmed himself, "Are you sure kid?" she nodded, "Oh good, you started to give me a heart attack."

Vanellope continued, "I've been feeling different lately," Ralph nodded at her to go on, "I've been feeling nervous, tingly, and shy."

Ralph furrowed his brows still not getting what she was saying, "What do you mean? when did you start feeling like this?" he asked to dig further deep into the problem.

She thought hard on this, "It was when… when Alpha raced with us for the first time. Every know and then I've been feeling these things and not really myself like the way I used to."

"What do you mean? I still think you act the same." Ralph said still not seeing the problem.

Vanellope blew an exasperated breath at her bangs, "I don't know. Ever since Alpha came, I've been feeling like something is inside me and I don't know what it is." she tried to explain.

Ralph then gave a surprised look followed by a hidden smirk knowing now what it was, but he let her continue on, "I see. What else does it feel like?"

Vanellope hopped off his knee and started to pace around while trying to describe the feeling, "I have a funny fuzzy feeling and then I suddenly feel warm and weird," she slightly shuddered, "I tend to get distracted by something and lose my focus, sometimes I feel alone and sad for no reason, then I do crazy and dangerous things out of the blue before I know what I'm getting myself into, and… I don't know. I just feel different." she then faced Ralph, who had a warm grin on his face, "What? Why are you so happy stink brain?"

Ralph chuckled a bit, "I think someone has a crush on a certain boy." he said in a teasing tone.

Vanellope felt her heart drop and her blood turn cold, "Eww! I don't like boys. They are icky, smelly, and have cooties to make them stupid."

Ralph tried to contain his laughter while she cutely tried to deny it, "So you think all boys are gross?"

Vanellope gave a deadpanned look, "Uh yeah, doy." she said as a fact, "Besides, why would I like any of those nerds. Rancis is a mirror hogging pansy cake, Gloyd is a candy mouth stuffing squirrel, and the Swizz is a fat headed show off who thinks he's so cool to do all these stunts but never win in first place like Alpha does."

Ralph decided to give her a hint to the root of her so-called problem, "And I'm guessing Alpha is one of the gross boys with stupid cooties too?"

Vanellope suddenly got defensive, "Hey Alpha is nothing like them! Alpha doesn't care about how he looks or looking like a cup cake pretty boy, he doesn't stuff his face with every candy he sees and can come up with the greatest pranks to share with me, he is way cooler than the Swizz with his skills on a motorcycle and how he was able to start from dead last to first, while doing stunts, to win unofficially. Alpha is sweet when he wants to be, he is very friendly and funny, he steps up to anyone who tries to talk him down or picks on his friends, no matter how big they are. Alpha knows what it's like to be a complete outcast from the whole arcade and still manages to be happy with what and who he is," Ralph was shocked to hear her say that she knew Alpha's secret. He would have interrupted her to find out, but he let her continue to find out for herself why she was feeling the way she did, "Alpha is… he's a one of a kind code and no other code like him will ever exist." she turned to she Ralph with a hinting smile. She then thought about it for a second until her face froze in realization.

"Did you figure out something fart feathers?" Ralph asked her waiting for her reply.

"Wa- wait a minute! Are you saying that I have a crush on Alpha?" she asked disbelieving.

"Well you didn't add him to the cooties of stupid did you?" Ralph pointed out.

She quickly tried any excuse to deny it, "But, but he is just a friend, a good friend. We just do things together like good friends. That's all."

Ralph tried another approach, "Well if that's the case then it won't be long until one of the other girls takes him as a boyfriend."

Vanellope's face turned into a scowl at the thought of that and stomped up to Ralph, "NO! no way is any one of those glitter faced sissy fits is going to take him away from me! Alpha wouldn't be interested in any of them."

"Except you right?" Ralph finished for her.

Her anger instantly disappeared after taking that into account.

Vanellope thought back to the times they spent together. Racing, pranking, adventures, jokes, and even fights both verbal and physical. He made everything exciting, fun, and competitive. She even liked when he got on her nerves and got her angry. His witty comebacks, smart mouth, choice of insults and name calling made their fights even more enjoyable for some odd reason. And then those certain moments where each of them had blushed from holding hands, gave a long lasting hug, and when she thought she heard him say that he might have liked-liked her. That's right! It is possible that he may feel the same way about her, but is doing a great job of hiding it. Well that would need to change, but how and when?

But right now she came to terms with one simple fact. She liked Alpha, but Vanellope needed to treat this with careful planning in order to get this to work out. She then turned to Ralph, "You're not going to tell are you?" She pleaded.

Ralph waved a hand and calmly shook his head, "Of course not, this is for you two to deal with. But if you need help, you can count me in to get back at him for all the things he's pulled on me."

Vanellope jumped up and hugged Ralph around his neck, "Thank you diaper baby."

"You're welcome booger face," he hugged her back and then let her down, "Now don't you have someone to hunt down?"

Her eyes widened in shocking fear, "Holy fudge and cupcakes!" she yelled.

"What? What is it?" Ralph asked concerned something may have happened.

Vanellope looked up at Ralph in a panic, "I think I asked may have unknowingly asked him out on a date!" she said with fear clearly in her voice.

Ralph's eyes widened as well at this new pickle she found herself in, "Oh sweet Mother Hubert."

"Ralph, what am I going to do? What am I going to say? What if he makes fun of me? What if he runs away? What if he likes someone else?" Vanellope panicked with a load of questions of what if's.

"Whoa! Whoa! Calm down kid," Ralph tried to get her to relax.

Vanellope was to much in a panic mode to do so, "I can't! I don't know how to act in front of him know without screwing this up!" was the walls getting smaller in here? She could barely breath, "Ralph, what if he doesn't like me!?" she asked with despair and fear written all over her.

"Who doesn't like a sour patch kid candy like you?" Ralph assured using one of Alpha's nicknames for Vanellope. Ralph then tilted her chin up to meet his gaze, "Vanellope look, you are more special than anyone here in this arcade and you know why?"

Vanellope rubbed her nose and sniffed, "Why?"

"Because you are not only a winner and adorable, but you are also a one of a kind code that will ever exist. There may be other Vanellope's from other arcades across the world, but there is only one who has beaten turbo, one who has the most awesomely made kart, one who is well known through-out the arcade as a heroine, and one who has turned a Villain into a hero as well." Ralph told her with truth in every word he said, "and that is why he is going to like you back."

Vanellope allowed a shy blushing smile to cross her face. She then did her best to hug around Ralph's neck, "Thank you Ralph. You always know what to say."

"Hey what are best friends for? Now go out on this date and knock him dead, you poop nose." Ralph said wishing her luck.

Vanellope hopped off of him and started to head for where ever Alpha was, "I will jawbreaker butt."

Ralph just smiled as he saw her run off to find Alpha with a skip and a few flips, "Ah kids."

GUITAR HERO

Alpha was on stage playing all new songs like "Bodies" by Drowning Pool, "Animal I Have Become" by Three Days Grace, and "Superbeast" by Rob Zombie. He was in his Guitar Hero character image so he looked like he was from the game. Alpha even played metal version music from other video games like Rainbow Road from Mario Kart 64, Legend of Zelda theme, and Banjo Kazoowie theme. Alpha then finished his last song with a stage dive into the crowd. Alpha then rolled over to drop on the floor laughing at the fun he had until he saw two small black shoes connected to two small candy striped colored legs. He looked up to see Vanellope in a angry disappointed expression looking down at him.

"Oh hey there jelly bean. What brings you here?" Alpha asked as if everything was well and normal.

Vanellope then grabbed Alpha by the ear and dragged him out of the crowd as another song started and the people started rocking to the music. Soon they were at the terminal for the train and Vanellope finally let go of Alpha's ear.

"Ow! I'm starting to think this arcade tolerates cruelty to children," Alpha said rubbing his ear.

"How could you go to a rock concert without me!?" She whined, "Didn't you ever think I liked rock music?"

"Sorry president lemon head, but all of you were in your games busy and I happen to lose track of time in the heat of rocking out with the peeps." Alpha explained.

Vanellope turned away with crossed arms and humped her frustration, "It's like you don't like me around anymore," she pouted.

Alpha furrowed his brows, "Oh come on, I love it when you're around," She squealed inwardly at hearing that, "Who else would go with me to cause chaos and anarchy while having a good time?"

She pretended to still be upset, but in truth she was jumping with joy inside, "How do you expect me to believe that?"

Alpha thought for a moment and then remembered, "How about that trip in Sugar Rush like we planned?"

"Mission accomplished!" she thought, "Hmm. Alright then, you may escort the President to her lands," she said in a proper dainty voice. She held out her hand and Alpha took it, but not before rolling his eyes. Vanellope began feeling all those warm fuzzy feeling again as he lead her by the hand to Sugar Rush. Alpha then had Vanellope wait for him while he took half a minute to get something from Fix It Felix Jr. and was back in a moment.

"What did you need to get?" she asked.

Alpha gave his trademark smile of mischief and she now knew he planned something from the very beginning. Before she could ask what he did, Ralph came out later to stand with them.

"Wha- why is he here?" She asked surprised and disappointed that it wasn't the two of them.

"Well since I am escorting someone as important and special as the president," Vanellope couldn't help but blush after him calling her special, "I thought you should have at least one bodyguard," Vanellope stuttered to think of a reason for them to go alone, "Besides, Ralph never got to join us on our other adventures so we're going to get him join in on the fun as well."

Alpha then started off towards Sugar Rush. Vanellope gave a glare at Ralph as he started to shrink back knowing he was in trouble, "I'm sorry, but I really wanted to make sure he didn't mean fun as in getting into trouble!"

Vanellope rolled her eyes and shook her head in an irritated grunt, "Ralph, you stinkbrain." she said walking after Alpha.

Ralph slouched in guilt and followed after Vanellope, "Sorry I messed up your date."

Vanellope looked back up at him and hopped on his shoulder, "As punishment, you must carry me when ever I want for the rest of the day major body odor," she commanded.

Ralph grinned knowing she had forgiven him so quickly, "As you wish Madam fart tart."

Ralph soon felt a sudden weight on his other shoulder, "Well good to know we have our own personal transportation," Alpha said sitting on the other shoulder and leaning against Ralph's head with his elbow.

"Hey get off you little weasel!" Ralph shouted as he tried to swat Alpha off. Alpha kept hopping over each swing until Ralph gave up and the two kids laughed as Ralph did a while later.

WELL THINGS ARE HEATING UP WITH ALPHA AND VANELLOPE. I DECIDED TO ADD RALPH IN A LOT MORE TO MAKE IT MORE ENJOYABLE.
