" As Lightning Mcqueen and his girlfriend ? " asked Jessica excitingly . Chai
gave her a look . " O.k , i’ll shut up now , " she said backing off .
The whole world knows.
I just want to say I am not blowing you guys off here !
I’ve had to do so much stuff and if i’m lucky i might get a chapter up next week . look , i don’t even have
time to do my color . 
Ahh…no sweat. It’s ok – just take your time. I haven’t been working on my
story lately, either. As long as you make it good (which it is), I don’t care how long it takes. 
Ok , time for Chapter 18 . Before we start I would like to thank destiny( not a
person just to let u know ) , because if it wasn’t for it , i would probably not have an internet signal so i
would be able to write this .
Chapter 18 - Daredevil Spirit
It was the day after Angie
stormed into Radiator Springs all wrecked
, and she had stopped the waterworks a bit , but she was still vexed
(ticked off) at her father . You would think if anybody would want your dreams to come true would be your parents
, but no, they would rather see her becoming dizzy by going around and around and
around for two hours instead of helping people .
Anyway , Chai had quickly grown to love Radiator Springs
as much as Angie , and loved their stories even more . She would record them on her notebook that she always kept
in her trunk , and would read them over and over again until they were stuck in her mind . The only thing was
that Chai liked Sarge’s and Filmore’s stories of war and hippie protests alot more than Angie’s choice of
Romance . After all , Chai was an aspiring journalist .
That morning , Angie looked in her mirror and
noticed that if she wanted her father and the poparazzi to know where she was , she would need to get out of the
Dioco Blue paint job .
" It is time for a change anyway , " she said to herself , " I’ve
worn this color for 10 years .And Doc did say i would need a new one .
"
So, she rushed to Ramone’s that afternoon , with Chai and Sally for advice , of course .
“So ,” chatted Ramone , airbrush in hand , " anything in mind ? "
" Not
to sound like a copycat , " answered Angie , " but I was thinking of a seafoam green . "
“What , no ghost flames ?” , Ramone looked a little shocked . "
Angie let out a
small giggle . " Not today , Ramone . "
Ramone got to work . Sally and Chai had to leave for
this , since there were too many fumes . When Angie was finished and dry , she , Chai , and Sally got to take a
look .
"Awesome! " exclaimed Chai .
"Cool , " judged Sally . Angie wasn’t as
satisfied .
" Hmm , it’s missing something … I got it ! " Angie whispered into Ramone’s
window .
" Doc would kill me for sure ! "
"Oh come on , I’m perfectly cappable
into making my own decisions . Puh-lease ? " she gave him her best puppy-dog pout .
" Alright ,
but you know it won’t come off , " warned Ramone .
" I’ll just get it in Dinoco Blue so if I
ever have to talk to my father again , I can just get my original paint job . "
Ramone got ready to
do the mysterious artwork .
"Are you really sure ? " asked Sally .
" Do it ,
" Angie said to Ramone with a daredevil grin .
"
[i] You got a pinstripe tattoo on your tailfin ? [/i] "
Lightning looked shocked . Angie , the car that was like a little sister to him , had a tatoo . It was just wrong
.
" Yep . " Angie had a big , peppy smile on her face . " Isn’t it cool ?
"
"She did what?! " Everyone was
dead quiet . They knew whose angry voice that was .
"Angie , why in the world did you get a
pinstripe tattoo ? " Doc asked Angie furiously , just driving up to Flo’s .
" Because I like it
. You can’t tell me what to Doc , I’m an adult now you know . "
" Yeah , I know , but your
father’s gonna kill me like I almost just did to Ramone . " They all looked at Ramone . He crouched down ,
and not because he was calm .
"He can just get over it . He needs to learn that he can’t chiise
what I’m going to do for my whole life . "
" Angie , are you coming to the big race this
weekend ? " asked Lightning , quickly changing the subjest befor any car parts started flying through the
air .
" Of course ! Just because I don’t want my dad to see me doesn’t mean I’m going to miss the
race of the year ! " exclaimed Angie . " I wouldn’t miss it for the world . This year you might even
get higher than last place . "
" Ha Ha , " said Lightning sarcastically , " very funny
."
just another small detour I
thought would be fun .
coool 
I love it! Nice job,
gottalovepixar.
hmmm. i see Angie coypied sally. Any way nice chapt. GLP.
Actually , hers is supposed to
be in a different style and smaller too . And when she said she didn’t mean to copy , she meant Chai since Chai
is also in that color range . To me , seafoam green and mint green are really the same color . Which is my
favorite color .
Ohhh.
Can you believe only about four more chapters to go ? I
don’t want to see it end ! 
But guess what fans , it might not !Well , the main story will , but I might
just add some little mini fanfics for fun . When Cars 2 is over , this will now be Radiator Springs adventures ,
including The Screamin’ Banshee , with Angie , of course .
O.k .
next chapter .
Chapter 19 - She loves It , She Loves It Not
" Alright , this is the last
race so we have to make sure we have everything , " Doc warned to the Radiator Springs gang ,
“fuel?”
"Check, " shouted Flo from afar .
" tires ? "
"
Check , " said Luigi .
" Extra trailers for everyone , "
"Checkerrooni ,
" said Mack , with three other trucks behind him . All of them had two double-wide trailers attached . Mack
had one for Lightning and Sally , and another for Chai and Angie to share . The next truck had one trailer for
Ramone and Flo , and Another for Doc and Sheriff to share (there’s had two floors) . The last two trailers were
for Mater and Lizzie and then the other trailer for Sarge and Filmore , that arrangement was so they would all
have something to joke about . The last truck had a trailer for Red and one for Luigi and Guido and , since they
were so small , the supplies.
" O.k. I think we’re ready to go , " said Doc with a smug smile
, which soon left his face , " wait a minute , where’s Angie ?"
Everyone soon started searching
for her . They checked her cone , the Wheel Well , everywhere . Well , almost everywhere .
Angie sighed
as she looked around . Willy’s Butte always looked nice next to a sunset . Nobody was looking , so why not ? She
counted down in her head .
[i]Racers , start your engines !
rrr,[/i] her
engine started . And she raced against the air .
Angie raced around the track , a smile on her face . She
laughed as she remembered the story Lightning told her about when he first saw Doc drive , and she was probably
doing the same exact thing .
Angie soon finished , and took a big breath of southern air .
“You miss racing ?”
Angie jumped and turned around , and saw Doc .
"Oh ,
" she sighed with relief , " it’s just you . Kind of , I guess . "
" You can’t just
guess . Do you miss it or do you not ? "
" It’s just … complicated o.k ? I mean , I like it ,
but I want to be a doctor more , " Angie was confused , " I mean , if anybody would understand , I
would think it would be you . "
" What’s that supposed to mean , " asked Doc with wide
eyes .
" Well , just look at you ! " she exclaimed , " you have three jobs , and you
should know how hard it is . I definetly wouldn’t be able to do it , even if the school was close enough for me
to travel around . "
" It’s getting late , " Doc changed the subject , " we should
get on the road . Just , think about what you really want , okay?"
" I will . "
" Good . Well , come on , I know you can drive faster than that ! " Doc teased .
"
Please , I could beat you to Flo’s any day . "
" Then your on , " said Doc , driving away
quickly while laughing .
" Hey ! That’s cheating ! You cheater ! " Angie yelled after him ,
laughing along .
If only Daddy could understand like Doc
sweet
Totally. 
I know this is from a long time ago , but I just read my old
chapters , and I totally messed up on one of Sally’s sentences . Wow , it was hard to read before . At least
I’ve improved . right?
I much as I really don’t want to put this , since after
this there’s only about one more chapter and the epilouge next , here’s chapter 20 .
Chapter 20 : It’s
Good To Forgive
“Racers ! Start Your Engines!”
[i]Pocono , Sweet
Pocono,[/i] thought Angie as she watched the racers start . Pocono was one of her favorite racetracks
. With only three turns and a tunnel , It was 2nd runner up for most likely to have raging tempers , which of
course , was held by “short track , short tempers” Bristol track . She didn’t mind though , te tunnel
was the best part to drive through , and you could always stick you tounge out at the car next to you without
them even knowing . Too bad she wasn’t racing , and was at the pits with everybody else .
At first she
didn’t want to go to the pits , since she knew somebody would recognize her .
"With that paint job ,
people will only think you and Chai are just new to the team , " Doc assured her . After all , he still
wasn’t too fond of that pinstripe tattoo , even though Angie thought it was the best decision she had made that
whole racing season .
So Chai and Angie watched them go around and around . They would occasionally shout
" Go Lightning! " or " pass that sucker " , sometimes even a " Chick Stinks !! 
" while he was in the pits , then he would lose his focus trying to figure out who said it . The joke never
died .
Of course , Angie still occasionally stared at another young racecar , none other than her ex- ,
Bolts . She still couldn’t like him after he did wha he did , right ? Although she knew why , even though nobody
knew she did . Angie knew all along Bolts needed the money for his family , she remembered a car looking for a
job as a butler at The King’s house before the racing season started , and she remembered a while after she saw
him at her first race , that it was him . After all the car did say his name was “Bolts” , and the car
sounded just like him . Unfortunately , he didn’t have as much experience as the other job hunters , so right
away he was turned down with a heartfelt apology .
100 laps went by , then 150 , then they were right
down to 3 laps left . Lightning was in the lead , and he couldn’t believe it , after 2 years of hard work , he
was close to winning his first pistoon cup . Of course he didn’t think about it , he only thought about making
sure Chick didn’t pass him , one he did , it would be all over , so he dashed to the left , to the right again ,
and then to the left . 1/2 lap left , and Bolts tried to pass Chick .
" Oh no you don’t , "
said Chick angrily , and slammed Bolts into the wall .
Bolts swerved off the track and into the grass .
Everyone gasped , they knew Chick was rotten , but not that much . Angie didn’t know what to do , Lightning
tried to stop and help , but he was going a bit too fast , and past the finish line first . That didn’t matter
though , and although he hated Bolts guts for hurting Angie those few months ago , Bolts was still betrayed by
his partner , and if anyone was going to help , he might as well .
He wasn’t the only one . Angie rushed
to the scene , awestruck and astounded . She understood now , she understood fully . Bolts never wanted to hurt
her before , he was just one of Chick’s pawn , and she was too .
" Is that who I think it is…
"
" It sure is , " replied Darrel to his partner , Bob , " that’s Angie Weathers ,
rushing up to her ex-boyfriend . "
" I doubt he’ll be her ex for long , " Bob said back .
" Bolts , " Angie said with her eyes almost watering . Wow she had cried alot these past months
probably more than her life , " are you o.k ? What am I saying , of course you’re not o.k , you’re a wrek
. "
" Gee , " said Bolts sarcastically, and with a small sense of pain in his voice ,
" that made me feel better . What are you doing here , shouldn’t you be learning ? "
" I
got two weeks off because of the race . "
Bolts looked surprised , " and you just rushed to my
side because … "
" Would you just stop being sarcastic for once and listen ! " Angie
told him . Bolts’ sarcastic attitude towads almost everything was the only thing she didn’t like about him ,
" I came because I wanted to say … to say… I forgive you . "
" Forgive me ? How can
you forgive something like what I did ? I almost killed you . "
" Yeah , but i know it wasn’t
your fault , " Angie replied , " we were just both of Chick’s pawns to get him to win another stupid
trophy that doesn’t mean anything . "
Lightning was just standing there , listening . Finally , he
noticed he wasn’t needed , and just drove to the pits .
" Congratulations Mcqueen , " Doc said
as Lightning parked himself in the usual spot at the pits .
" For what ? " Lightning looked
confused .
" You won , idiot , " Doc answered .
"Hey- wait a minute . I won ? I
won ! I got the piston cup ! wohoo ! " Lightning jumped for joy , and when he was done with that he kissed
Sally on the lips , which unfortunately , was captured by every camera , including the poparazzi’s . But Sally
didn’t really care .
" Wow , " she replied , " can we win next year ? I like how he
celebrates . "
Everyone laughed at the comment , and Lightning when up to the stage to recieve the
cheers and trophy , which was still important , no matter what Doc said . Luckily , nobody booed or threw tires ,
like people did last year .
Bolts was fixed quickly (" Watch him have problems by the time he’s
forty " Doc told Lightning ) , and the celebration for Lightning’s win had officially begun . Everyone
important to him was there , inculding one person Angie really didn’t feel like seeing .
" I think
there’s one more person you need to forgive , " Doc whispered to Angie as he pointed to the King , "
and maybe apologize for what you did too . "
Well , I couldn’t let
her be mad at Bolts forever . Besides , there needed as a couple for The Screamin’ Banshee .
Hmm ,
that’s a good cliffhanger I put at the end , huh ?
Everyone laughed at the comment
bad chick! bad! (punches the ugly racecar with a
mustache) Alright!lightning won a piston cup! Yay! 
apparently , nobody wants the story to end so they
aren’t replying .
i’ll post a new chapter later ( if i can get an internet connection where
i’m going )
The Final Chapter !!! Well , not including the Epilogue anyway .
Chapter 21 -
Perfect
" Do I have to ? " whined Angie to Doc . She really didn’t want to talk to her father
, who was talking to Tex about something . " See ? He’s busy , I’ll talk to him later , like , in 10 years
or so . "
Doc gave her one of his looks . Worst of all , he added a sigh . Although Angie was good
at getting out of things , Doc was better . He had more experience .
" Fine , " Angie pouted .
" I’ll be back , " she said to Bolts , who was by her side and pretending not to listen in ,
"hopefully . "
" Daddy? "
The King turned around ( once again , and maybe
for the last time , don’t ask me how ! ) , " Angie ? Let me guess , you want to apoligize for what
you did ? "
" Two things , " she replied , " one , you’re messing up the story and
I’m supposed to say that , and two , I’m not the only one who needs to say sorry . "
" Okay ,
so I didn’t really respect your dreams , but I had dreams too . But , " The King sighed , " I guess
I’m going to have to understand that you’re dreams are more important than mine . "
Angie glanced
outside . She saw her old hellicopter outside smile at her . " Or , you can respect them both . I’ll be
right back . "
" Hey Tex ! " Angie shouted . " Can I ask you something ?
"
" Let me guess , " said Tex , " you want me to take you back for next season , right
? "
" Okay , seriously , you guys have to stop doing that . So , will you ? " she gave him
the oh-so-powerful puppy dog pout .
" How can I say no to a face like that ? " Tex smiled .
" Thanks Tex ! And this time , I won’t quit ! "
" Back so soon ? " asked
Doc when he saw Angie race up to him .
" Doc , will you be my crew chief and trainer again ? "
questioned Angie quickly .
" Well , even though that was asked quicker than I thought you would ,
o.k. then . How are you going to get to school ? "
" It’s called a hellicopter . " said
Angie with a smile .
" But I’ll only do it on one condition . " Doc said .
"
What’s that . "
" Well , " answered Doc , " when you graduate , I might just have an
opening for a job at my office . "
" Deal !! " exclaimed Angie .
" Well it
looks like I’ll be tuck with Jessica , " frowned Chai , " I’ll miss you . "
" What
do you mean ? " Angie replied , " You’re staying in Radiator Springs . "
" And after
college ? "
" We could always use a newspaper . "
" What the heck , "
Chai smirked , " why not ? "
It seemed like a perfect ending .
So happy ! Just the epilogue left now .
Awww, is the party over? I had to do a little catching up again. I love how Lightning didnt even realize
he’d won! And Doc’s line “you won, idiot” is so classic! I glad he finally got a piston cup! And i’m
also glad Angie patched things up with King and went back to racing! I was hoping she would.
Not yet , lennonluvr9 . We have an epilouge you know ,
because we still have some questions to answer , such as …
[spoil] What’s Lightning gonna do
with the extra winnings money ?
Will Bolts and Angie stay together , with permission of Doc and The King .
Will Bolts keep racing ?
What about Jessica ?
And will everything ever stay normal ?!
[/spoil]
oh , and don’t forget , when this is done i’ll be renaming this thread "
Radiator Springs Adventures " since I have some good little-fanfics in mind featuring our favorite teenage
plymoth superbird ( Angie : which would be moi ) and her friends . Not to mention the classic radiator springs
gang , and maybe even the delinquent road hazards ( Boost , Wingo , Snot Rod , Dj )
