THIS IS SO AWESOME I LOVE THE AU CONCEPT!!! I will be patiently waiting for more of this hehe
Ok, let me preface this by saying three (3) things:
- English is not my first language. Iām currently incapable of writing fanfiction in a language that is not my own, so forgive me. I wanted to do this idea justice, but itāll have to be crude written paragraphs for now.
- Anxiety might make me delete this later, because my perfectionist ass cannot tolerate any kind of mistakes and this is my first time posting something like this. But I had these concepts festering in my brain for far too long. I need to get them out or else theyāll consume me. Also Iād like to thank the bird for showing me the light.
- This might get long and messy. I havenāt really planned out anything with this AU and all of this is 100% vibes, but Iām open to suggestions and might expand/change/delete things as I go. Also expect some art in the future (I'm slow and lazy sowwy).
The (quite long) premise of this AU is basically this: Turbo survived the events of the first movie (original I know) because he rewrote so much of himself into Sugar Rush that the game now thinks heās actually part of it. So he respawns, but gets kicked out of the game and is forced to go back to his previous life as a gameless character in Game Central Station. Only difference, everyone this time KNOWS heās alive and what he did (because Ralph and/or Vanellope explained the whole situation to the rest of the arcade). So everyone basically treats him like shit (think of Vanellope). Heās both shunned and mocked by the other characters, and is forcefully kept away from every game in the arcade, to prevent him from āgoing Turboā again.
But the thing is, heās actually powerless now, and canāt actually do anything dangerous anymore. He lost the cy-bug part of his code (sorry kcb fans but the tall menacing cockroach doesnāt exactly give out the pathetic wet cat vibes that this au demands) because of the reset, and now keeps glitching between his Turbo and King Candy model, even a mix of the two at times. Heās hit rock bottom and he knows it. And obviously he blames it all on Vanellope and Ralph, and wants to take revenge on them. So, knowing how powerful his cy-bug form was, he decides to wait for a chance to sneak into Heroās Duty and get himself eaten again by one of the creatures. THEN he will be free to wreak havoc on the arcade and happily destroy every single game in it (starting with Sugar Rush of course). And ABSOLUTELY no one will be able to stop him. So naturally he gets stopped again. This is where Iād introduce the OC Iām planning for this AU.
Her name is Luna and she is the titular protagonist of Lunaās Adventure (might change later), a fantasy adventure that resembles the first Zelda game in terms of graphics and mechanics. Luna is essentially an optimistic, but not an hopeless one. Being one of the oldest characters in the arcade, she knew Turbo back in the day and is fully aware of the situation, but doesnāt really like to be part of the āletās all laugh at himā mentality. So she mostly ignores/pities him, and makes sure he doesnāt try anything funny with her game. That is, until she spots him as heās sneaking into Heroās Duty during opening hours. She immediately takes action and follows him into the game. First she tries to talk him out of it, but her pleads fall of deaf ears, as Turbo is too fixated on his revenge plan to even listen to her. He doesnāt care in the slightest, all he wants is to be great again. He feels like he has no other options. He has nothing. Heās nothing. In the eyes of the other characters, heās but a pest, a worthless loser. Better be feared than respected at this point. This desperate attempt (which seems more like self-destructing behaviour) is his last chance.
The heated back and forth between the two grabs the attention of a solitary cy-bug, which immediately attacks them. Luna quickly avoids the creature and safely gets to a hidden spot, but when she notices that Turbo has no intention of running away, on the contrary, heās purposefully exposing himself like the snack he is, she jumps on him and saves him from the incoming cy-bug attack. So for a few minutes we have the comical situation of Luna continuously saving Turbo and herself from the cy-bug, and Turbo trying so hard to get eaten but getting saved everytime. Eventually the cy-bug is shot to death by Calhoun herself, who IS SO READY to blast Turbo out of existence with all of her arsenal, but desists when Luna explains the whole situation to her. Still, the sergeant has no intention of keeping the glitchy gremling in her game a second longer, and escorts them out of the game. Turbo lashes out at Luna for ruining his ultimate plan, but before she can say anything back, the arcade opens. Luna leaves in a hurry, telling Turbo to behave while sheās away because sheās not done with him. So heās left in the middle of GCS wandering what the hack she meant by that.
That night, all main characters from each game reunite to discuss what to do with Turbo. Felix, Ralph, Vanellope, Calhoun and Luna are all present. Turns out they have no idea how to handle the situation. They canāt let him run freely around the arcade. What would happen if he tried to infiltrate another game? Unsurprisingly, no one mentions Surge Protector. Someone suggests they could simply kill him. Ralph is neutral, Vanellope is slightly against the idea, but Felix jumps up and firmly says that they are not going to kill anyone. If they did, they wouldnāt be better than him. Then Calhoun makes a proposal. Just like keeping the cy-bugs inside Heroās Duty is also part of her, well, duty, someone should take on the role of a warden to Turbo, keeping him inside their game and out of everyone elseās. Obviously she canāt do it, so another character will have to.
The problem is that no one wants to have anything to do with Turbo. They may mock him during the day, but they really are all just terrified by him. The fear of getting unplugged is so strong that no one is willing to take the risk. No one, but Luna. While everyone argues, she slowly stands up and offers herself to be Turboās guardian. The room goes silent for a few seconds, but eventually everyone applauds her courage. Luna gets relieved looks by Felix and Vanellope, and a special nod of approval by Calhoun. Ralph is the only one whoās still not fully convinced. He had to battle him on the top of Diet-Cola Mountain and knows full well how badly he treated Vanellope all those years. But the little girl gives him a reassuring nudge on the arm, and all the tension he had accumulated magically goes away. If sheās not having a problem with it, so he wonāt. Deep down, though, even Vanellope feels somewhat restless. She just doesnāt want to see her game devastated again.
Now comes the hard part. Luna has to find a delicate way to break the news to her colleagues. They obviously have A LOT to say about it, but she is able to convince them. Sort of. Things might not be so simple after all. Even though she agreed to keep an eye on the short menace himself, sheās not sure how exactly this decision will affect her and her game. Was it really the right thing to do? And if he became really dangerous? Sheās actually starting to reconsider, when an idea forms in her coded mind. What if⦠she were to teach him goodness? What if she offered him a chance, instead of blindly avoiding him like everyone else? All I have to say is that Turbo will definitely take advantage of the situation and play along, all so that he can finally have his sweet revenge.
---
Thatās all for now. I have a few ideas on how the story could continue, and a few interactions that I absolutely want to incorporate as well. Also I already have a finale in mind, and I hope to eventually get to that (the final scene is the one most clear in my mind right now). So, if you actually managed to read all that, thank you! Now I can go back to being a normal human being again (delusional).
