Post by Dante on Mar 5, 2016 22:09:05 GMT
It was a bright sunny day in Yokohama, Japan. Today is the big kart race. But this is not just any race, no. This is a race among Tamers and their Digimon. Dante and Wormmon approach the track. A young woman wearing a headset escorts Dante and Wormmon to the racer's locker room. There, Dante meets up with the other races. To his surprise, this race consists of Tamers from the Defectors and Team Takashi. (This takes place before Piedmon shows up and turned them into dolls.) Dante sits down next to Sakiko. "Hey, you made it!" "It's great to see you guys. What are you all doing here?" Cassius comes walking over and sits next to Dante. He puts his arm around the red haired tamer and tightens his grip, squeezing Dante a little too tight. "It's like this. Someone offered us a chance to race for a grand prize. Taking down Team Takashi is just a bonus."
Bo and Sal walk over to Dante and the others. "Look who it is, Sal. The noob, the fool, and the nobody." "Frig off, four-eyes!" "Stuff a turtle shell in that big mouth of yours. So, Sakiko, how do you intend on racing without a Digimon partner?" Sakiko looks sad, then looks up at Sal with rage in her eyes. "For your information, Sally, I just so happen to have a Digimon partner for this race. So just sit back, shut up, and get ready to eat our dust!" Sal gets angry at Sakiko. One of her eyes starts bugging out a bit. "Hmph! Well I'll see you on the track. Oh, and that fat ass of yours is going to slow you down." Bo and Sal walk away. Sakiko is pissed off Sal mentioned her big butt. Cassius and Dante try to calm Sakiko down. "That road trash! With an attitude like that, it's no wonder she doesn't have a man." The race coordinator walks in and directs the racers to their karts. Everyone finds their kart and gets ready to race.
The Racers:
Dante and Wormmon ~ Takashi and Agumon
Revan and Gabumon Black ~ TJ/Blitzmon
Cassius and Betamon ~ Sal and Biyomon
Sakiko and Agumon Black ~ Bo and Kunemon
The racers line up and prepare to start. The announcer is heard over the speakers. "Good day, ladies and gentlemen. This here is Giles Huckleberry, and we've got a great treat for you today. Eight Tamers and their Digimon compete in three races to determine who wins the grand prize! Alright, racers, let's kick it up!" The light turns green, and the racers take off. Revan and Cassius take an early lead. Dante and TJ follow close behind, jockeying for position. Takashi just sits there at the starting line. "Hey, this isn't fair! I call hacks." Agumon reaches forward and starts the kart. "Oh, my bad." Agumon fires a pepper breath and Takashi stomps down on the pedal, taking off in a blaze of speed. Revan and Cassius continue duking it out for the lead. They both pick up an item box. Dante tries to pick up an item box, but TJ cuts him off and grabs it right before Dante. Cassius throws a green shell towards Revan, but Gabumon Black drops down a banana peel, blocking the shell. TJ fires a red shell at Cassius, taking him out and knocking him back to 5th place.
Sakiko and Sal battle it out. Sal picks up an item block and uses a mushroom, gaining a burst of speed. Agumon Black picks up an item block and gets a banana. They throw the banana forward, wiping out Sal. Sakiko sticks her tongue out at Sal as they pass by. Sal floors it and tailgates behind Sakiko. Sal tries to get around, but Sakiko keeps turning left and right, blocking the road. "Grr, stupid fat cow!" The racers approach a sharp corner. Dante picks up an item block and fires a red shell at TJ, sending them tumbling over the edge. Bo and Kunemon trail behind in 7th, until Takashi gets a star and comes zooming in. Takashi crashes right into Bo, sending them flying into the air. "Haha! Later nerd!" Takashi keeps going forward at a fast speed. They approach a sharp corner. Takashi tries to turn, but can't turn soon enough and flies off track into a pile of mud.
The final lap begins, and Revan and Dante battle it out for 1st. Revan fires a green shell backwards at Dante, but Dante dodges, and the shell hits Sakiko. "Dang it, Revan!" Approaching the last turn, Dante slows down and turns sharp on the inside lane, passing Revan. Dante and Wormmon finish first, less than 1/10th of a second before Revan. Dante and Wormmon celebrate with a victory lap. "Woohoo! We did it, Dante! We showed them we are the boss of the track." The other racers finish, and everyone gets ready to head to the next track. TJ is furious Dante won. "You got lucky, little man. Next time I will take you down." "Big talk from a big man. Kids must love you. Well, either that or run away terrified." Revan is also frustrated Dante won the first race. He takes it as a personal insult to his ego. How could Dante, a newbie Tamer, outstage a veteran Tamer like Revan? Whatever the case, Revan was starting to dislike Dante more and more.
Leaderboard: Dante: 10 Revan: 8 Sal: 6 Cassius: 4 Sakiko: 3 TJ: 2 Takashi: 1 Bo: 0

The eight racers make their way back to the locker rooms to get ready for the second race. Sakiko congratulates Dante for winning the first race. "That was too cool, Dante! I'd rather one of us win instead of Takashi and his goons." "Thank you, but I have to give Wormmon the credit too. We make one awesome team!" "Aw shucks, thanks Dante! We are gonna keep kicking bootay!" Revan is sitting down on the bench adjusting the pad on his leg when he overhears Sakiko. Revan and Sakiko had only recently broke up, and Revan thought Sakiko was just trying to stick it to him for revenge. "Ya, but Dante really cut it close. It was just one race. Don't get too excited. Let's hope he's a better racer than he is a Tamer." Dante takes offense to Revan's lack of respect. Dante is still the new guy in the group. Sakiko, Revan, and Cassius have been Tamers ever since they were children. Instead of getting mad at Revan, Dante decides to brush it off. "Ehh, he's right. What's one race, or one fight? I'm sure if we ever had a Digimon battle, one fight wouldn't prove anything, right?"
Meanwhile, in Team Takashi's locker room, the four 'heroes' are up to their usual antics. Bo grabs Takashi by his shirt. "What do you think you are doing, little man?! Are you trying to get me killed out there?" Takashi squirms around trying to get free. "Hey! What are you doing? Let me go! This isn't PC!" TJ walks up behind Bo and taps him on the shoulder twice. Bo lets go of Takashi's shirt and turns around. "You know the rule. Pick on Takashi, and I pick on you." Bo is scared out of his mind. "Really, I didn't mean anything. Honest!" TJ pretends he's about to punch him. Bo flinches and cowers in defense. "Haha! What a baby!" Sal yells from the other side of the locker room. "Hey! Keep it down!" "Oh shut up, Sal! Nobody cares what you think!" Sal's eyebrow starts to bug out. Remember how Dante can brush things off? Well, Sal can't. "Uh oh, she's got that crazy look in her eye!" "Oh I do not wanna deal with this right now." "RUN AWAY!!!" Takashi, Bo, and TJ bolt out of the locker room. "Aha ha ha ha! If only they were that fast on the track."
Back in the Defectors locker room, things are getting heated between Revan and the others. "Oh, how did I get in the middle of this?! It's like being back in high school." "Why can't you just admit you were beat, Revan?!" "Well why can't you admit you're trying to get back at me?! You're the one who ended our relationship!" "Oh, you ended it by seeing other women, you skinny pale creep!" Gabumon Black tugs on Revan's jacket. "Come on, Revan! Let's just focus on the race!" Wormmon crawls up Dante's arm and sits on his shoulder. "Your Digimon partner makes a lot of sense. Maybe you should try listening to someone for once!" Revan looks like he's about to snap. He looks down at Gabumon Black, then back to Sakiko. "I don't have time to play babysitter. Let's go check on the kart, Gabumon Black." Revan goes to walk out of the locker room, but stops at the doorway. Revan punches the side of one of the lockers, and walks out with Gabumon Black. "Typical Revan. Is that guy ever happy?" "It sure has been a while." Cassius comes walking out of the shower area wearing a towel around his waist. "What I miss?"
Later on, both teams have arrived at the second track. This one takes place up in the snowy mountains. Before the race, Sal sneaks off to talk to some SnowGaborimon. "Hey, you two! Come here." Two SnowGaborimon walk over to Sal. "I need you to build snowmen. Not one, but a lot of snowmen on the track. Like, just a ridiculous amount of snowmen." "We can take care of that. But what's the payment?" "Payment? The payment is I don't break every single bone in your stupid ugly bodies! Also I guess some of the prize money, if I win." The two SnowGaborimon look at each other and nod, then look back at Sal. "You've got it. They are gonna crash into those snowmen! Ha ha, ha ha!" "Excellent! I'll see you when I'm standing in the winner's circle." Sal walks off and sneaks back in with the other racers. The SnowGaborimon go back and get their kin to help build snowmen all over the track. Takashi talks to his team before the race. "Okay team, who are we?!" *Sal, Bo, and TJ say in unison, without motivation* "Team Takashi." "And what do we do?!" "Fight Evil."
The racers line up in their karts. The announcer comes on over the speakers, in a nasally, old-timey voice. "Hello, ladies and gentlemen! This here second race is about to begin! Yes, we are out here in the snow, and it's very, very cold. Let's hope the racers had some warm cocoa before the race." The light turns on, and the racers take off. Sakiko and Revan fight for the lead early on, followed closely by Dante and Sal. TJ tries to pass Sal, but misses the turn and goes off into a snow bank. Bo laughs. "Ha! That'll teach that big oath!" Bo takes a sharp turn to get an item box, but plows right into a snowman. "Hey, check it out! That guy totally just ran into a snowman! Ha ha!" "Ya, we got that sucker good!"

At the start of the second lap, Revan is in the lead, followed closely by Dante and Sakiko. Sal trails a little bit behind in 4th place. Revan hits an item block and lets lose a banana peel. Sakiko runs into the banana peel and spins out, tumbling into a snowman. Dante continues trailing behind Revan. "Come on Dante! Pass that dumb emo kid already!" "Oh I'm trying. He's not giving us any ground." Cassius and Betamon pick up a triple red shell, and go to town wiping out the other racers. One by one, Cassius hits Sakiko, Sal, and Dante, advancing to second. Trailing way back is TJ. He picks up a star. TJ spirit evolves into Blitzmon and uses the star, taking off down the track wiping out Bo and Takashi. "Hey what gives? We are on the same team!"
The final lap begins, with Revan holding onto the lead. Cassius, Dante, and Sal jockey for position. Dante and Wormmon pick up a fireball. Wormmon launches the fireball at Cassius, knocking over their kart. "That's a spicy meatball, Wormmon." TJ is catching up with the star. They run into Sal and wipe her out. "Rrr, stupid meathead!" Sal picks up a lightning bolt and zaps the other racers, turning them little and slower temporarily. *High pitched voices* "Ah, what happened Dante?" "We gotta pass Revan!" Revan and Dante are approaching the finish line when Sal comes flying in, squishing Dante and Wormmon. Sal finishes first. "Ah haha ha ha! Yes! In your faces!"
Results: Sal: 10 Revan: 8 TJ: 6 Dante: 4 Cassius: 3 Sakiko: 2 Bo: 1 Takashi: 0
Standings: Sal: 16 Revan: 16 Dante: 14 TJ: 8 Cassius: 7 Sakiko: 5 Bo: 1 Takashi: 1
After the race, the two groups meet up before heading to the final track. Revan is frustrated for coming in 2nd again, when he was in the lead most of the race. "That stupid blonde tart! Who does Sal think she is?" Gabumon Black speaks up. "You and Sal are more alike than you think. You are both headstrong, and give in to anger too quickly." Revan takes offense to his Digimon partner's words. "That's enough out of you! Remember you place, you mangy mutt." Sakiko gets up in Revan's face. "I don't know what you're so upset about, you dofus! You're tied for first with Sal." "Just because you stink at racing doesn't mean I should too. I'll win the final race and ensure victory."
Team Takashi meets up out in the snow next to the karts. "That's how you win a race, boys." None of them look too impressed. "What's the matter? Jealous?" Bo and Takashi just stand there, unusually quiet. "They are upset because they keep finishing last. No point in even racing now." Sal runs her hand through her hair. "Whatever. You're all just a bunch of babies! Can't even congratulate me." Takashi can't hold back and finally erupts. "Knock it off, you big meanie! That race was totally unfair! I could've won that race." "Takashi winning? Please." "Oh ya?! Honest, I could win!" "There's no chance. Heck, if you win the last race, I'll kiss Sal on the mouth." "Fat chance." Takashi's eyes brighten up. Sal can't tell if it's tears or melted snowflakes running down Takashi's face. Probably a little of both. "Deal! When I win you two gotta kiss!" "I don't know who I'd feel worse for." Sal, as usual, gets very pissed off. "I'll show you who's going to be feeling sorry!" Sal goes to punch TJ, but slips on ice and lands face first into the snow bank. The rest of Team Takashi starts walking away. Sal sits up in the snow. "Ow! I hurt my ankle! Wait, where are you going? Come back, you can't just leave me here. I won the race!" Takashi, Bo, and TJ just get in the karts and drive off.

The final race is about to begin. The announcer comes on over the speakers. "Ladies and Gentlemen, get ready to blast off out of the stratosphere! That's right, we are going into outer space to rainbow street!" The racers appear at the starting line. "Whoah! Check out the rainbows!" "Get you head in the game, Takashi! If Sal wins, it'll be an embarrassment to our team." Revan and Sakiko are staring at each other. "Good luck, Revan. Wouldn't want you drifting off into outer space." "Careful, Sakiko. You could crash and burn off that stupid looking hair of yours." Sakiko gets super angry at Revan. Cassius adjusts his racing jacket. "Oh man, outer space! This is crazy! I should've read that liability waiver a little closer." "Alright, on your mark now, get set, GO!" The racers take off down the rainbow colored track, floating out in outer space. Sal and Sakiko take the lead early on. The racers go over the top of a hill and glide down to the track below. Takashi goes over at an angle, and flies off into space. "Wee! I mean, ahh!" A helpful race attendant catches Takashi's kart with a fishing pole and puts him back on the track.
Revan passes Cassius, reaching 3rd place. Dante and TJ duke it out, trying to catch up to Cassius. Bo picks up a lightning bolt and zaps the other racers. Bo advances to 3rd place. Later on the 2nd lap, Sal picks up a green shell and hits Sakiko, sending them down to 3rd place. Current order: Sal, Bo, Sakiko, Revan, Cassius, Dante, TJ, Takashi. Cassius fires a red shell at Revan, but Revan fires a green shell backwards to deflect the attack. Dante picks up a big mushroom, and uses it to rocket past Revan and Cassius after a sharp corner. Sal and Bo battle it out for first, but going around a corner with no railing, Bo fires a red shell, wiping out Sal and sending them tumbling off into space. Cassius takes out Sakiko with a fireball. Sakiko falls back a few spots, but picks up a star. Before she can use it, Revan activates a ghost and steals Sakiko's star. Revan uses the star and rockets forward, wiping out Bo.
The final lap is coming to an end. Current order: Revan, Sal, Dante, Cassius, Bo, Sakiko, TJ, Takashi. Dante speeds by Sal on a sharp corner, and drops down a banana peel, wiping her out. Revan and Dante are approaching the finish line. Sakiko makes a last ditch effort and speeds ahead of Bo with a mushroom. Bo picks up a spikey blue shell, and launches it immediately. The shell flies by the other racers, hitting Revan dead on. The blast also wipes out Dante. Takashi picks up a star and rockets forward, wiping out other racers. Before Revan and Dante can get back up to speed, Takashi flies by them and wins the race. Sal crosses the line, finishing 2nd and winning the cup.
Results: Takashi: 10 Sal: 8 Dante: 6 Revan: 4 Cassius: 3 Sakiko: 2 Bo: 1 TJ: 0
Standings:
Sal: 24
Revan: 20
Dante: 20
Takashi: 11
Cassius: 10
TJ: 8 Sakiko: 7
Bo: 2
Sal stands on top of the pedestal, raising the gold cup high in the air. Dante and Revan argue over who gets the silver cup. After the celebration, Team Takashi groups up. "Can you believe it? This is amazing! I got the cup, I got the prize money, and I've got a one year all expenses covered membership at my favorite spa and hair salon!" "Ya, ya, you won the cup. But I won the last race. Which means you gotta kiss Bo!" "I never agreed to that! Bo said it, not me!" "Come on! I won the race!" Sal sighs. "Uh, fine. Come here, Bo." Sal and Bo stand face to face. TJ and Takashi watch on with glee, waiting to see if Sal does it. Sal leans in for a kiss, and Bo leans in with his mouth wide open. Bo closes his eyes, and Sal knees Bo right in the nether regions. Bo drops to the ground in agony. "I'm the winner! I'm the winner!" Sal runs off celebrating, pumping her fists in the air. TJ and Takashi check on Bo. "Do you think she likes me?" "Oh, totally!"
The Defectors meet up, trying to get over losing the cup to Team Takashi. "Okay, team. We may not have the cup, but at least we don't have to put up with Sal and Takashi." Everyone nods in agreement. "So, uh, just get right back on the horse and ride. Meeting adjourned." Dante and Sakiko walk off to talk in private. "I can tell Revan is upset. He didn't win any races, and you tied him in points! He'll never live it down." "I'm glad you enjoyed yourself. But I've had enough kart racing for a while." Wormmon crawls over to Dante. "Aw, come on! One more lap." "Well, okay." Dante gets in his kart, and Sakiko sits in the back holding onto Wormmon. The three of them ride off down the rainbow colored track, fading off into the distance.
Meanwhile, back at Tokyo, Angel is just getting out of the shower. Her phone starts going off. "Hmm, that's weird. I wasn't getting a signal." She checks her phone and realizes she missed a bunch of texts. "What's this? Kart racing? Two days ago! Oh man, why am I always the one who misses out?"
Part 4/4, all finished. Let's go with bits this time, Mr. Nice Person
