1. Prologue (1/2)

hey guys. i made a promise that i should make a story that aggie should be in planes, so, right now, i finally made it. this event happens before aggie left the cars world and after world grand prix and allinol scam, which means she was still eight years old. enjoy anyway.

in the month of november, lightning mcqueen was called to race in minneapolis, minnesota. it's gonna be a long travel, so mcqueen's whole crew travelled at day, and slept at night in resting areas along the way. when they finally arrived in minneapolis, mcqueen had 2 weeks to practice, unexpectedly they came very early than they thought.

when lightning's ready to practice with doc guiding him, aggie was there, sitting down to watch, and getting bored. it was lightning's turn to race this time, and aggie haven't race for a year because of her one-year job in london, which her training was back to square one according to doc and not allowing her to race.

"alright, kid, let's practice on this track for now before the race." doc interrupted his thoughts.

seeing her bored made lightning feel pity for her, and he can't race while looking at her like that. he drove off the track, and to the pits where his crew were also practicing for pit stops.

"just a minute here, doc." he excused.

"ugh, what is it now rookie?" his mentor asked.

lightning rolled towards the bored aggie, and said, "hey, girl, i know you can't race this season, but you can't just sit down and watch. why don't you go out and explore the state for a while?"

"i don't know, lightning. i don't even know this state yet." aggie replied. "besides, doc won't let me go alone."

"what do you mean? you already gone outside the country, and you're saying i can't you go alone exploring just one state within the country?" doc gave her a small chuckle. "you're a growing girl, aggie. i think you should go out there and find something to discover."

aggie's positive spirit lifted from boredom, "you really think so? thanks, you guys, but, what if i'll travel far away and, maybe… i stayed in that place for a while without letting you know?"

"you have your cellphone i gave you, right?" sally asked.

aggie took her phone from her helmet, "yep."

"just text or call us if you want to stay."

"alright, well, i'm better off." she kicked the ground with her skates, and rolled away.

"see you later, soldier." sarge waved his wheel.

"be here in two weeks." sheriff reminded.

"don't forget souvenirs." mater added.

"i gotcha there, mater. i'll be fine." aggie saluted

when aggie left the speedway, she didn't know where to go, and it was very cold. luckily, she

ought her own jacket in her backpack, and wore it.

when she started travel quite farther away from the speedway, aggie realized she left the city and noticed everything is all green, like a farm, like her farm. she also noticed a road going to an unknown. sure she wasn't suppose to go somewhere that is unknown, but she can skate as fast as she can to escape if the place is dangerous, so she took that road.

it's not as far from the highway, but when she went quite far, she noticed a sign that said, 'welcome to propwash junction'. curiously, she went to a short tunnel as the town's entrance, and, to her belief she, it was a town with a group of small hangars and a big airport. there are so many airplanes, and the town has a field of corn. she loved corns. when she stared at the corn field, she saw two airplanes spraying dust. they were called as crop dusters. aggie was quite scared and felt like a stranger around.. she tried to ask someone, but she couldn't. she was too nervous, and almost everyone is busy. it was almost sunset. she had to find a place to stay and someone to let her be.

there, she found a fuel truck and a forklift talking to each other, and approached them.

"um, excuse me?"

"not now, i'm trying to fill the fuel container." the fuel truck snapped.
