Now onto story matters
Lucy wants to win
The children's second race is coming up
She wants to win badly
But just how far will she go for the win?
Ch.8 Desire to Win
(Where we left off)
Lucy would jump in her kart as an announcement from her mother would blare out of the intercoms around the Royal Raceway
"Don't forget there's another race today! Everyone gather near the base of the Mountain near Lodhi Sr chalet in an hour!"
Lucy would drive near the outskirts of the village where the candy citizens reside, when she'd be sure no one could hear she'd scream and vent her frustrations out
"GOD DAMN IT! WHAT WENT WRONG?! THAT WAS MY RACE! THEY STOLE IT FROM ME!" She'd hit her steering wheel in frustration
Meanwhile all the other children would go to Lodhi Sr chalet and hang out in the massive living room to celebrate
"According to my mother Tapper's was jam-packed and everyone was losing their heads during the race!" Vick would exclaim happily
"Not just Tapper's our race just like our parents race got streamed to the whole arcade! Everyone saw that amazing race!" Nya would shout with a smile
Kevin would sit with Lodhi Jr, Ella, Charles and Martin who'd be grouped around a table talking about the race and staring at Jr's large trophy
"Hey guys!" He'd pull a chair from another table and set it down beside them
"Hey Kevin tough break in the race eh?" Martin would ask
"I finished 11th out of 22….isn't that bad considering first time racing against competition that's not just Lucy….also didn't you finish 13th?"
"Yea I never wanted to imply you did badly, I had a bad mess up thanks to Ricky being an idiot eh"
"Hey atleast neither of you finished 21st….I had a run in with Ricky too…and I got the worse of it…" Charles would add
"From replays you nearly caught him at the line…it was only on inch that separated you." Ella would cut in
"Yea but 21st-20th isn't where I planned on finishing my first race…"
"Everyone had plans on vinning ze race Charles…" Jr would pip in
"Yeah but no one ever wants to finish last…" Ella would add
"Yea that reward goes to Lucy…she'd had a horrible race…I mean she was no where near threatening to me at the end of the race…she was hopelessly behind." Charles would state
"Yea…I saw that…" Kevin would look at his cupcake
"Did you have something to do with her spin near the end? I knew she was running middle of the pack up to that point…" Charles would ask
"Well…you see…" Kevin would state
"He hit her eh….she never saw it coming neither….she was just ahead of Kevin and was passing Mercurio…Kevin was having none of it eh…" Martin would cut in
"Damn Kevin you spun your own sister? To avoid losing one spot?" Ella would ask shocked
"NO! IT DIDN'T HAPPEN THAT WAY! YOUR LYING MARTIN!" Kevin would shout
Martin would start laughing. "It's how it looked from behind eh…she passed you she was catching Mercurio and you wrecked her eh…"
"NO! I DIDN'T KNOW SHE WAS THERE! I WAS HYPERFOCUSED ON MERCURIO!"
"So it vasn't intentional…you just lacked avareness?" Jr would ask
Kevin would look at Jr stoned faced
"Wow way to be blunt about it Jr…" Charles would state
"Martin would start laughing again. "Kevin there's no winning here…there's only 2 reasons you hit her eh...either deliberately or just lacking situational awareness…"
Kevin would simply sigh as the table would share a small laugh
"I'm never living this down aren't I?" He'd ask with another sigh
"Nope, wrecking your sister in the very first race will be entered into the halls of remembrance." Ella would say holding in further laughter.
"I hate you guys…." Kevin would state as he'd sigh a final time
The group again laughing in return.
Candlehead would pass out refreshments to the children while trying to cheer up those a little bummed out for finishing low.
Eventually she'd stand in the middle of the room and loudly clear her throat to get everyone's attention.
"Losing is part of racing, there are 22 of you and only one can win any given race, it's something you all will learn in due time, when you see and your parents celebrating our wins like crazy…it's due to the fact we've learned to appreciate every win like it's our last, some of us win more often than others sure, but in our game's long history all of us have nasty losing streaks we'd prefer to have erased from our memories…you may all feel bummed now…however it is something you should get used to…winning is everything sure…but you all will and must learn that if you only see first place as the one and only goal…you'll only find disappointment…1st is amazing indeed…however being happy with a top 5 or 7 isn't a bad thing either…your goal should always be to win…but never fail to find pride in the little things…"
She'd than do a small bow and head back into the kitchen where she'd join Torvald and several of the other adults
"Words of wisdom…always unexpected." Torvald would joke
"When you're getting wisdom from me you know it's pretty damn good wisdom!" Candlehead would respond with a laugh
Vanellope would scan the room. "Hmm…Lucy's not here…"
"Maybe she went somewhere to vent? She had a brutal race…" Candlehead would state
"Or she didn't watch to catch any flak from the children with all the high and mighty talk she's been doing in recent days leading up to the race." Torvald would add
"Maybe…either way…it's…concerning…" Vanellope would respond
Meanwhile Lucy would pull into the driveway of Lodhi Sr's chalet
She'd walk over to Jr's kart.
"You aren't beating me again Jr…next race is mine…" She'd attach a small cube under his kart than go back to her own
She'd have a small tablet next to her steering room where the game's code would be visible.
"Good the cube is linked…that jerk tries to take what's mine again I'll show him good…" She'd tell herself before closing the tablet and heading inside
"Oh speaking of the devil Vanellope your daughter is here." Lucy would hear Candlehead in the kitchen
Lucy would sigh and head over to an empty chair, and sure enough as expected her mother came over rather quickly with refreshments.
"Tough break Lucy…they happened…you just missed Candlehead's big speech on it…"
"Oh don't worry about it mother…Christie recorded the whole thing and sent it to me…I'm fine…just needed some time to calm down…I'm fine…"
"Are you sure?"
"Yes…I'm positive…"
"Lucy we both know how you get when you get frustrated and angry…"
"Mother I'm aware of how I act…which is why I went to vent by myself far from everyone…I'm fine.."
"Ok…atleast try to socialize though…don't make yourself look like a sore loser…"
"I think it's too late for that…"
"non-sense…everyone knows Annie loses with grace but than goes and rages in a place no one can hear her…but you don't see people calling her a sore loser…"
"Because most people are too fucking afraid too…"
"Lucy language!"
"Sorry mother…my point still stands though…"
"No it doesn't…racing is everything to everyone in this game…and it's in Annie's code that she's extremely passionate…just from how everyone was acting leading up to the race and reacted after it's conclusion…I'd say that trait is present in all of you…"
"You sure?"
"Look around Lucy…those that didn't finish in the top 11 are clearly super bummed and frustrated…heck the only one that seems content finishing between 11th and 8th seems to be your brother…"
"I guess you have a point…"
"Just got and talk to those that finish close to you…they're probably in the same mindset as you are now…you can cheer each other up…"
"Fine…"
"Good…" Vanellope would say with a smile and leave
Lucy would sigh and get up and look around
She'd see everyone mostly bunched up in groups, and in her current mood she wasn't in the mood for conversating in large numbers, had she won she probably would have been.
She'd notice Ricky sitting by himself staring at his helmet, looking at his reflection staring angerly back at him
Lucy would sigh. "He's really the only one sitting alone?" She'd think to herself, though knowing her mother was probably watching her she'd take a deep breath and walk over to Ricky.
Ricky wouldn't say anything as she'd walk up and sit in a chair next to him
"You sure you weren't suppose to be Annie's kid? What you're doing with your helmet is very Annie-like…"
"No…I'm definitely Lodhi's son…even if I vasn't suppose to be more zan a dormant codebox…and yes I know zat vot I'm doing is like my auntie Annie…just it helps me zink…"
"Think about what?" Lucy would ask despite all of Lodhi's children also having the mispronunciations the programmers decided to give their father as some sort of joke for the players, Lucy could easily tell what they were trying to say, being best friends with Christie had a ton of benefits.
"Vere it all vent vrong…"
"I get that…I doubt either of us planned on bringing up the rear…"
"Didn't plan on vinning by a mile…a few feet at most…but still planned on vinning…"
"Hey atleast your name won't be the one recorded as having finished dead last in the first race ever…after having started the race on pole…and leading for only like what was it? The first third of the race…"
"Sure…but ze recordbooks vill still show ve each started in a high position…led for a bit zan finished 22nd and 20th…"
"Fair point…"
Vanellope would suddenly ring a small bell and gain everyone's attention
"The next race is starting soon…I suggest…" Before she could finish most of the children would have already departed.
She'd sigh. "So this is how Copy Vanellope feels…"
Torvald and Candlehead would laugh from the kitchen
Ricky would crack his knuckles and grab his helmet, he'd look at Lucy one final time. "Good luck in the next one…"
"Good luck to you…hopefully we battle each other till the end…" Lucy would say with a small smile
Ricky wouldn't respond and would put his helmet on, he'd put his reflective visor down over his eyes and walk out.
Lucy would sigh. "I get he's supposed to be cold but geez…" She'd think to herself
She'd get up and walk out of the chalet and immediately be greeted by the noise of engines revving as most of the children would be attaching their safety harnesses and getting ready to go to the meet point
Kevin would watch Lucy walk passed him. "Hey sis…forget that first race…it's all in the past and you can't change it…though you can change everything in the race coming up…focus on that…"
"I already am brother…that last race is already gone from my memory…" Lucy would respond as she wouldn't even turn her head nor stop walking to her kart.
Kevin would look at her walk away concerned. "She never refers to me like that unless she's pissed…and it often means she's up to something…"
He'd look towards Jr who'd be driving off towards the meet point. "Mods I hope she hasn't done anything…please for once let be wrong on my assumptions!" He'd scream in his head
A few minutes later all the children would arrive at the location at the base of the mountain.
"Yo where's the track?" Nicky would ask aloud
"Where are the fans? The cameras? I put on my good face just for this!" Nya would exclaim
More than few fellow racers would respond with an eye roll
Vanellope would suddenly appear before them. "Well you didn't let me finish…I was going to say Lodhi had to set it up…"
"What do you mean by set up mother?" Lucy would ask
"Oh this track…it's technically not part of the game…well yet anyway…most of the data and code is present in the game…it's a work in progress for the developers…it's meant to be a track that spans across the game…and well…Lodhi in all his genius has taken the parts that currently exist in the game…and added his own modifications…to get…well…I'll let it do the talking…"
Vanellope would stick one arm out to the side as on cue a massive track would from around the game, long straights appearing in the sky, some going directly into Diet Cola Mountain, going into the mountain behind them itself, and connecting to certain sections of the royal raceway, while entirely new parts that had Lodhi Sr's handiwork would appear.
"Due to the large length the race will only be 2 laps long…that and since the track isn't fully coded in yet Lodhi and I decided against including items since playing to much with the code is a bad idea."
The children would nod and eagerly park their karts in assigned slots based on where they had finished the previous race
As they'd do so they'd see the grandstands spawn in along the track and the fans immediately teleport into them as the rest of the adults would arrive and sit in a special grandstand
When Lodhi would arrive and give the all clear to Vanellope she'd climb up to her special platform and grab a microphone, she'd turn to a marshmallow who'd be holding a video camera
"We are live in 3…2…" He'd point to her to signal that she's
"Hello to those at Tapper's, Biggy Burgers, Space Stop, and to those that are simply watching from home…after their very first race…the children could not wait another moment to put on another spectacle for your enjoyment…as other cameras are showing you now this track isn'T one raced on before…it's a secret track that was just brought to light…and what could be more exciting than watching the faster racers around rocket around it? Due to the newness of the track no items are being used this race…all of you watching are going to get a real show…no items will determine the winner of this race…the deciding factors…-Vanellope would look down towards the children as all the cameras would panned to them-…will be determination, skill, guts, and sheer willpower…-the cameras would turn back to Vanellope-…who has more of it? I don't know! But it's high time we find out…"
Vanellope would tug on a rope and a timer would begin counting down, she'd sit down as all the cameras would pan towards the racers, as other marshmallows would quickly fly over to locations throughout the track to catch footage of all the anticipated action.
At the line all the children would see the time slowly counting down
Engines would rev
Feet would be ready to slam the gas
Lodhi Jr would grip his steering wheel tight, his eye would narrow as he stare as the numbers got lower and lower
"Time…to…go!" The moment the timer would strike 0, even before the bell would ring to send them off the tires of the Red Missile would spin and Jr would already being moving forward while everyone else would just be hitting the gas pedal
"No way!"
"HE DID NOT TIME THAT!"
"WHAT?!"
"FUCK! NO WAY!"
Would be some of the shouts his fellow racers would shout as they'd speed off after him
Back at the starting line on a massive jumbotron a quick replay would show Jr timed his start to absolute perfection
Rancis would look at Lodhi Sr.
"Now way you taught him your nearly perfect ability to time his starts!"
Lodhi Sr would laugh. "No…zat's an ability zat can't be taught…only honed…"
Back with the racers Jr would already have a several kart length lead over the pursuing pack that would be jockeying for position
Position would swap so frequently that the Jumbotron at the starting line would stop trying and wouldn't mark position
One position it would show would be 22nd, where Lucy would still reside
Lucy would see the chaos infront of her, karts slamming into one another, racers being sent into half spins that they'd save themselves from at the last possible moment
And for the moment decided it be safer just hanging back, no one could really gain an advantage
Except Lodhi Jr who was clear of the pack
That part irked Lucy deeply, but she couldn't use her ace card, not yet, there was too much of the race left
Jr would lead the pack towards the first section of the track where it would a wide arching turn towards Diet Cola Mountain, the track nearly going perpendicular with the ground.
"Oh zis vill be fun…" Jr would tell himself
The racers would speed some getting nervous as they'd be at nearly a 180 angle with the ground below them
Ricky didn't share this nervousness one bit
His eyes would narrow as he'd push his pedal hard enough against the metal floor enough that he was sure he was bending the floor of his kart
Whether it damaged his kart or not, it clearly worked as his kart's engine would roar with a fury the others didn't have as he'd gain just a bit more speed
And with a few swift swerves he'd go from roughly the 19th position up to the top 10
Kevin who had managed to claim 10th could do nothing but watch as Ricky would swing wide and blow by him sending him back down to 11th
Rancis would stare at the jumbotron
"Definitely your son…" He'd state aloud Lodhi Sr. who'd be sitting beside him
He'd only get a chuckle in response from Sr.
Kevin would take a deep breath as the track would straighten back out and it'd be a straight shot towards Diet Cola Mountain
"Head down…head down…still early doors…he just took advantage of slip stream….stay on him…" He'd tell himself
Behind him Martin would get boxed in with Nya infront of him, Floyd to his right and Charles to his left
The track would start straightening out
"I apologize in advance! ESPECIALLY FOR THOSE BEHIND!" He shout as he ram his kart into Floyd than into Charles sending both into uncontrollable spins before ramming into the back of Nya's kart making her swerve wide to the right
He'd speed off after Kevin as everyone behind him would dodge and weave to avoid the 2 racers spinning out and avoid Nya who'd be swerving back towards the middle of the track
Lucy would use the opportunity and her glitching to bring herself all the way to 12th right in Martin's rearview mirrors
Martin would look over towards Lucy and see her eyes narrow and angry.
"Hey I didn't do anything to you eh!" He'd shout
Lucy's expression wouldn't change as she slowly close the gap towards him
The track would quickly start descending downwards towards a large entrance to Diet Cola Mountain
Martin would see the gap between him and Lucy getting shorter and shorter the closer they got to it
"No…I am not spinning out in there…" He'd tell himself as he'd swing to the right and slow down just a tad letting Lucy roar by him
He'd catch her slipstream and follow her in
Kevin would see Lucy in his mirror and would see the same expression Martin saw. "That explains Martin's little freak out…and why he gave up his spot without a fight…but…I know that place…damn it Lucy…what scheme do you have going on here?" He'd tell himself
Up ahead Lodhi Jr would keep a narrow lead over Ella who'd be followed closely by Ryan, Christie, Norville, Sophie, Vick, Hope, Faith, with Ricky and Kevin closing in behind them
With Lucy and Martin hot on their heels
The rest would form a tight pack bringing up the rear
Except for Charles and Floyd who'd be 21st and 22nd respectively and nowhere near anyone, both would be fuming
Inside Diet Cola Mountain the track would quickly spiral upwards towards the top
The track would get tighter and narrower the further up it got
Though for Lodhi Jr is wasn't an issue as he'd keep his pedal flat to the floor, behind him however the narrow track was causing several racers to collide with each other, though to the adult's relief none were sent spiraling off, even then a safety net was their to catch them if they did, but parents being parents got worried regardless
Lodhi Jr would reach the top that would end a speed boost right before a ramp
He'd launch off the ramp and would fly across the world towards the Gumball Gorge section of the Royal Raceway
He'd land on a ramp and would get up to speed when the roar of a second engine would catch his attention
He'd look over his shoulder and see Ella closing it on him
"Did you really think I'd let you run away from me again?!" She yell out with a laugh
"No! Vere have you been?! I vas getting bored!" Jr would respond
They'd race down Gumball Gorge dodging the Gumballs as the rest of the first pack would close in
Just abit behind Kevin would bring up the rear of the first pack with Lucy and Martin hot on his tail
"Lucy you good?" He'd ask
"I'm fine brother…"
"You only call me that when your mad!"
"Well you did wreck me last race and here we are…"
"I didn't mean to! Wait! Your not gonna?!"
Without another word Lucy would slam into the rear of Kevin's kart and send him sliding into a gumball
"Consider us even Brother…" Lucy would state as she'd speed off after the others
Kevin would get back up to speed but by the time he would he'd be near the tail end of the second pack
He'd see Floyd and Charles far back trying in vain to catch back up to the group
Kevin would look back ahead of him and see on his dashboard 18th place
He'd sigh. "Welp…there goes my chances of winning…"
Carl would give him a slight bump on the side of his kart. "Don't get that mindset! Remember what Candlehead said earlier! It's never over till the last kart touches the line!"
Kevin would ponder for a moment than look towards Carl and nod
"I'll see you at the line!" He'd shout
"Loser buys at Tapper"s!" Carl would shout back
Back at the front Lodhi Jr and Ella would near the end of the court and see ending of the section also ended in a ramp leading into part of Candy Cane Forest that'd be covered in snow and ice
The 2 racers would hit the ramp and land in the forest, both having to quickly reclaim control as the track would be highly slippery
Those chasing close behind and would have the same issues
Except for Ryan and Ricky, Ryan would get even faster and would quickly catch and pass Jr and Ella
Ryan would lead them into a series of quick left right handers forming several quick S's.
Ricky would get a bit quicker on the frozen track aswell and would drift his way through a few of the turns
Halfway through the dozen or so turns he notice an off-track ramp
He'd drift wide at a turn
"What are you doing?! Your going to go off and crash!" Hope would shout
"No…I know vot I'm doing!" Ricky would shout as he'd go offroad his tires tearing a quick path through the offroad and hitting the ramp at nearly full speed and would shot him far ahead
He'd land back on track where the forest would end and the track would lead towards the mountain and towards Lodhi Sr's Chalet.
Ricky would grip his steering wheel tight and keep his pedal to the metal
He'd see the track heading towards a tunnel at the base of the mountain, as he'd close in on the entrance he'd hear the familiar roar of Jr's engine
"Mod damnit JR!" He'd shout as Jr would roar pass with Ella and Ryan hot on his heels
"CURSE YOU AND YOUR OP SPEED!" Ricky would shout enraged as he tuck in behind Ryan in his slipstream.
Behind him Lucy would pass Hope, Faith, Christie and Norville and set her eyes on Ricky just a few kart lengths ahead
Jr would lead them back into the mountain when the track would get wider but also getting very dark with the only light source being some light beams on the ceiling though they were spaced out so the track was visible but constantly dim
Jr would hold his nerve and lead the pack forward as the track would ascend climbing higher and higher
Eventually it would start turning back in the direction they came
Jr would lead them out and the track would be far above the starling line way up in the air, the track ahead would end in a loop-de-loop that would send them on a near 180-degree straight line down towards the starting line
"Hang on tight friends!" He'd shout to those behind
He'd go through the loop-de-loop and would launch downwards back towards the ground
He'd feel his feet go numb, the track was so perpendicular to the ground he was sure at first his wheels weren't track
As it got closer to the ground the track would quickly straighten out and become fully level
A few dozen feet later he would cross the line starting his second and final lap
Ella, Ryan, Ricky, Lucy, Martin, Hope, Norville, Faith and Christie would be hot on his heels
The second pack being led by Nya would cross the line soon afterwards
Kevin would be hot on her heels having climbed up to 13th and would see Carl in 12th just ahead of him
"Man you really don't want to pay my lunch at Tapper's! Your acting like this is for the win!" Carl would shout
"It's like Candlehead said! The small victories can be just good!" Kevin would reply with a smile.
Throughout the second lap the lead would exchange hands between Jr, Ella and Ricky that at times it seemed the Jumbotron would blue screen from the stress and overwork
However as the lap went further on Lucy would get closer and closer
Before she realized it they were going through the mountain again and she was in second with only Jr ahead of her, with Ricky and Ella hot on her heels
Her and Jr would blast out of the mountain and would speed on the long run towards the final loop that would feed into the last shot towards the finish line
Lucy would look towards Jr who'd slowly begin pulling away, her kart was a match or even outright better than Jr's in all but one category, Speed, and with the design of the track Jr's one advantage trumped all of hers.
It infuriated her
She'd quickly tap on the tablet. "It's time…this…is…my win…" she'd tap on something in the code and the box under Jrs kart would disintegrate into pixels that would be absorbed by the kart, and no one noticed a thing
However almost immediately Jr's kart would start glitching abit, quickly followed by some parts simply following off
Jr would hit his brakes but they wouldn't work, the Jumbotron's second screen would panned towards Jr who even though no one could see his face through his helmet could easily tell the young racer was terrified out of his mind and panicking.
Vanellope would quickly turn to a Marshmallow acting as the head of the ground crew
"GET SOME PEOPLE TO GET JR OUT OF THAT KART! IT'S BREAKING DOWN ON HIM AND THOSE GUARD RAILS MIGHT DO MORE HARM THEN GOOD!"
The Marshmallow would quickly nod and yell out orders over a walkie-talkie while everyone in the grandstands would panic
Rancis would quickly climb up to Vanellope
"You don't think Lucy did this…do you?" He'd ask
"I know she did…" She'd respond
Even the racers behind Jr would get scared as they'd see the kart falling apart at high speed and Jr clearly not being able to control it
Jr would than spin towards the guardrails and let out a shriek that was audible even to those far below
The racers behind would see 5 Marshmallows fly on his kart, they'd quickly cut his harness and safety belts and fly away from the kart just as it'd crash into the guardrail disintegrating on impact
The Marshmallow's would slowly fly him down
The race however was still on
Lucy would go through the loop as Ricky would roar by her
He'd storm down the track
Ricky would see the finish line and his eyes would lighten up
Lucy would ram him in the side sending him sliding
He'd catch himself quickly
"NO!" He scream
He'd slam into Lucy who slam her kart right back into him and both racers karts would be hard pressed against the other
Ricky would look at Lucy. "ZIS IS MINE!" He'd reach over and grab her steering wheel and jerk it hard to the right sending her careening into the barrier head on
Ricky would stop towards the line and hold off a late charge by Ella to secure the win
As the others would cross the line Marshmallows would go to Lucy kart to check on her
Before she could react one would grab the tablet
Lucy would gulp and look towards her mother's viewing platform where both Vanellope and Rancis would be looking at her
A mix of anger, disappointment and despair on their faces.
Eventually Charles and Floyd would cross the line and the final results would appear on the Jumbotron

22nd Lucy DSQ
"Wait Lucy got disqualified?" Linke would ask as she'd take off her helmet
Everyone would see the Marshmallows land and let Jr down who quickly run over to his mother and hug her tightly still crying out of shock and terror
Torvald would kneel down and hug her little boy tight
Everyone would look at them then back towards Lucy who the marshmallows would have restrained as a couple of Oero Guards marched over to her
Lucy would keep trying to flee to no avail
Everyone would turn to Vanellope who still be staring coldly towards her own daughter
"Lucy…what do you have to say for yourself?"
Lucy would keep her head lowered looking at the ground at her feet
Vanellope would take a few deep breathes
"Take her to the Fungeon…Lucy…as of this moment…you're barred from racing…indefinitely…"
"WHAT?! NO! PLEASE! I-I-I-I DIDN'T MEAN IT! I JUST WANTED TO WIN SO BAD! PLEASE I DIDN'T WANT THING TO PLAY OUT THE WAY THEY DID!"
Vanellope would hold up her wand and she'd go silent
"You told me you listened to Candlehead's speech…"
"I DID!"
"Clearly you didn't take any lessons from it…do you even realized what could have happened?"
"YES! BUT I DIDN'T EXPECT THE WHOLE KART TO GO TO HELL! I JUST WANTED TO SLOW HIM DOWN!"
"YOU NEARLY KILLED MY BROZER?! OVER A RACE?!" Norville and Ricky would rage in unison
"IN MY DEFENSE RICKY WHAT YOU DID WAS DANGEROUS!"
"I SENT YOU INTO A SAFE BARRIER VIZ ENOUGH PROTECTION TO CUSHION ANY BLOW! YOU NEARLY KILLED MY BROZER!"
Ryan, Christie, Carl, Vick, Hope, Faith and Martin would barely be enough to keep the raging duo at bay
Lucy would keep trying to defend herself
"I'VE HEARD ENOUGH!" Vanellope would shout out, the anger in her voice impossible to miss
Lucy would look at her mother nervous, scared and regretful. "Mother please…racing is everything I've been built for…"
"I don't want to hear it Lucy…you made your choices…and I have made mine…"
Lucy would sob and lower her head
"Take her away…" Vanellope would motion to the guards
They'd nod as they'd escort Lucy away ensuring no fans or racers got close
The fans in the stands would boo, throw candy, snacks and drinks at her on her walk of shame
Vanellope would sigh and turn towards one of the marshmallows
"Please tell me you didn't broadcast the incident…"
"We cut away the moment the kart started failing…the commentators were informed to simply say Jr had a kart malfunction and was parked on the side and was already being helped by Marshmallow ground crewmen…we cut back to the actual racing just as the leader got out of camera shot of Jr being flown to safety…"
Vanellope would sigh again. "Ok…good…"
Vanellope would climb down and approach Torvald who'd still have Jr latched around her sobbing
"Torvald I am so sorry for all of this…Lucy gets angry yes…but I never would've dreamed that she'd be capable of something like this…I raised her better…every lesson Rancis and I have taught her and Kevin was how to win and lose with grace…never lash out at other competitors…I..I…" Vanellope would struggle to find her words
"It's alright…Vanellope it's not your fault…you shouldn't even be apologizing…everyone knows you did you best…and Kevin's a clear shining example…you have nothing to apologize for…though I'm glad the moment you saw what was up you sprang into action…"
"Least…I could do…-Vanellope would turn to the others gathered around-…your all dismissed…you may head home…that was the last scheduled race of the day anyway…adults I'd like to see all of you in my throne room in an hour…we will need to talk about…the incident…"
Everyone would nod and leave most trying to give a comforting pat on the shoulder to Vanellope or even saying what happened wasn't her fault.
Eventually in would only be the Crisp family, Rancis, Kevin and Vanellope left
Lodhi Sr. would pull up in a special 7 seater to bring his family home, Jr would still be latched on to his mother
Torvald would stand up holding Jr tightly
"Torvald again I am so sorry…if I knew the way things were going to turn out…Lucy would've never had been in the race…"
Torvald would look at Vanellope. "As I said…it's not your fault…there's only one person that needs to apologize and make up for what happened…"
Vanellope would nod. "Will I be seeing either of you in an hour? If neither of you want to come…I fully understand…I'll gladly make an exception for the both of you…"
"No…ve'll be zere…" Lodhi Sr would respond
"We need to be there for the decision…don't fret Vanellope…we hold none of what happened against you…"
Torvald would sit down and the kart would depart
Vanellope would stand still and watch them leave and disappear in the distance
Kevin would gently take his mother's hand. "Mother…are you alright?"
Vanellope would respond but the saddened expression on her face would tell the entire story.
Rancis would walk up and wrap his arms around her. "Nelly it's not your fault…you only realized it when it was too late…hell no one else realized it until you had taken care of the situation.
Vanellope would silently hug him
Rancis would sigh and look at Kevin
"Drive home…go straight to your room…your not being punished…your mother and I…we just…need time to process what happened…and to think things through…"
Kevin would silently nod and leave
(Abit Later)
A door to a cell would open and Lucy would get kicked in and land face first
"Can I atleast have the chains taken off?" She'd ask
"No…glitchproof…only thing keeping you hear…" A guard would respond and slam the door
Lucy would look around, the cell would be utterly empty and dark, and a small slab made of Jaw breakers would be the only thing to sit or lay on that wasn't the cold hard cement floor
She'd sit on the slab and begin to sob
End Ch.8
