Luke woke up the next morning, seeing a massive birthday breakfast from the racers.

"Happy birthday!" They say to him. Luke smiled at this.

"Thanks, everyone!" Luke says.

Everyone had worked hard on the planning of the party from the decorating to the cake baking. Vanellope even declared Luke's birthday a holiday.

Luke was amazed by how loved he was by the racers.


Luke did his normal things, then got ready to go on the track. The arcade was open today, after all.

Crumbelina smiled at him as he came onto the track. He was one of the best racers so far. She approached him.

He smiled at her. "Morning, Crumbelina." Luke says.

"Morning, birthday boy!" Crumbelina says. "Getting excited for your big arcade-wide birthday party later?"

"I'm already excited!" Luke says as he smiles and stands by his kart, waiting for the arcade to open.


Soon, the arcade opens as kids pour in to play their favorite games. Kids fought over who would get to play as Luke as Luke just grinned. One kid finally put his token in.

"Racers in position for selection!" The announcer says. Luke got ready as he struck his selection screen pose.

The race soon began as Luke raced his hardest. He was in the lead.

The kid won as Luke. Luke smiled and held his gold trophy.


With Lucy and the others, Lucy was preparing a gift for Luke as she was going to the party later. She didn't want the others to come with her. They had a tendency to ruin parties sometimes. She was reckless, but she was young. Her old parents didn't teach her well.


Soon, the arcade closed as Luke went home and took a shower.

While he did that, the others came to get ready for Luke's birthday party. But the party was rumored to be so big, it had to be held in the castle.

They arrive at the castle. Sonic speeds around and sets everything up at the speed of sound. The racers were impressed.


Later, Luke arrives at the castle.

"Surprise!" everyone says as confetti fell on Luke. Everyone from the arcade was there. But Luke was looking for a guest he invited personally.

Lucy was there, waving, gift in hand. Luke smiled and approached her.

"You made it!" Luke says, smiling at Lucy.

She had tears of joy in her eyes as she hugged Luke.


As the party began, Luke sat with Lucy for a bit. She read him a poem as he smiled.

"I missed you a lot." Lucy says.

"Same here." Luke says. "I love this place. I have so many trophies so far…but tell me, how are the others?"

Lucy smiled at Luke as she told him.


Soon, everyone was dancing.

Luke stole the show with Crumbelina, who was smiling at him the whole time.

Lucy smiled, happy for them.

Luke then opens his gifts from the arcade characters and the racers. After opening all of those, he gets to Lucy's gift.

It was a voodoo doll of Luke.

"What does this do?" Luke asks Lucy. She gave him a doll of Lola.

"What should I do with this?" Luke asked. Lucy poked it with a needle.


On Earth, Lola yelped in pain.

"What happened?" Luna asked.

"Something poked me!" Lola says.


With Luke, he giggles. "I like this!" He says.


Soon, Luke decided it was time to play party games.

Everyone played some party games, which were basically Mario Party games.

They played games like Shy Guy Says, Catch You Letter, Trap Ease Artist, Cast Aways, Paint Misbehavin', Dash and Dine, Burnstile, and Jump Man.

Mario was one of the best considering his history.

Then several rounds of musical chairs are played as well as Twister.

Luigi won some of the party games by doing absolutely nothing.

Luke was good too, but he wasn't the best at everything. Besides, he couldn't win the game prizes because it was his party. He already got all his presents.

Mario opened his prize box and saw a Luke sweater and struck a pose.


Later, Lucy played the piano for Luke. He smiled as he listened. She sang one of her favorite songs for him.

Luigi shook as Mario had to calm him down, reminding him she'd never hurt them.


Luke's P.O.V.

11 years old. I'm finally 11 years old.

This party is my biggest birthday celebration yet. I'm happy to be a part of the arcade community and I'm happy to make so many new and interesting friends.

I miss Earth a little, but I know this is where I'm meant to be. I don't miss my spiteful siblings. I'm happy to see Lucy and Luna any time, however.


Later, Luke watches his highlight reel. He hadn't lost many races as of yet. He's won 26 races so far and he was super close to his first Sugar Rush achievement. That alone was exciting.

Then Luke decided to eat some food. There was lots to choose from as the castle chefs prepared a huge spread.

He got the first servings of food and began to eat. While he was eating, the piñata was being brought out by Swizzle and Vanellope.

Luke gasped at the sight of it. It looked exactly like a castle. He smiled at this.

Sonic speeds off and gets him a bat. Luke looks at it. Luke used the bat and hit the piñata as it rained candy. Luke smiled and got some.


Lucy goes outside to be alone as Luke follows her.

She wrote some poems. Luke sat on the balcony. She needed space.

Luke just went inside. The lights turned on as everyone stood around a grand cake with cupcakes around it.

"Surprise!" The characters and racers say.

"Wow!" Luke says as there was a figure of Luke racing.

It said "Happy 11th Birthday, Luke Silvermint, you are an amazing racer!" Luke didn't know what to say.

"Thank you. So much!" Luke says.

"No problem, Luke." Vanellope says with a smile.

Soon, pictures were being taken as everyone began to sing.

Luke thinks of a wish. He wishes that his racing career would flourish. He then blew out his 11 candles. Then fireworks rose up as everyone cheered wildly for Luke.

Luke smiled at everyone. This birthday turned out to be his best one ever.


Angry9guy: Honestly, I'm not sure how to continue this.

Crumbelina's Sweet Admirer: You know the ins and outs of arcades.

Angry9guy: I meant with Luke.

Crumbelina's Sweet Admirer: How about the path to his first achievement?

Angry9guy: Okay, it's a done deal.
