Note: Sorry for the late update but I had a block what I was going to next in this chapter. But now I know how to continue on with this story. Thanks again for those who had been Reading and Reviewing.
Chapter 8:
Doc noticed when he finally arrived in the town of MotorTires, is that the good mid-size town was a quiet and friendly community, a lot bigger then Radiator Springs. As he passed though looking for the Sheriff's office, some of the town's citizens, who Doc was passing, warmly said their hellos before he drove passed them.
"What a peaceful place to live at." Doc said to himself as he continued to drive down on the town's main street. He continued to drive down until he found one of the town's deputies was parked in one of the stalls at the local gas station. Doc took the advantage and went over to the gas station.
"Excuse me I'm looking for Artemis McQueen, is she around here?" questioned Doc as he came up to the deputy.
"I know she came back into town sometime last night, but never saw her anytime today, so I believe she still might be up in her cabin. "She said watching Doc very closely but didn't do anything else.
"Who are you mister and why are you looking for Sheriff?" she asked him nicely as she can be without being a little strict.
"My name is Doc Hudson, I'm her son's Crew Chief." He said.
"So Lightning at long last found a Crew Chief that stayed more then a few races finally." She said.
"Yeah he did." Doc said hoarsely.
"Her cabin is not far from town, take this road until you reach Hopcaps Street, her cabin is on the right." Said the deputy before continuing her conversation with the owner of the gas station.
Doc said his thanks and started driving up the same road she told him to do. 5 minutes later, he found himself at the street sign. He turned right on Hopcaps Street and continued to drive up the bumpy dirt road. He noticed that there was an only two houses on that street, the house on the right of the road was a two garage cabin while the other house on the left was a regular house with three garages.
Doc remembered what the deputy said. "The house on the right." So He drove up to the front door and ranged the doorbell. While waiting for her to answer, one of the neighbors from across the street came out of their house and noticed the older Hudson Hornet on the Sheriff's front porch.
"Well I'll be a human," said the red 1936 Chevy as he rolled over across the street to see the navy blue hornet.
Doc turned around when he heard tires tracks close behind him and saw somebody familiar he used to knew from his past.
"Well I be it has been a long time since the last time I saw you." Said Doc as he drove down from the porch and greeted his old friend and teacher, Doctor Wilbur Carsonton.
"Hudson Hornet what are you doing here in Motortires?" asked Wilbur surprised to see his old student in front of him.
"I'm here to escort Artemis, I mean Sheriff McQueen to her son's wedding rehearsal tonight." Said Doc.
"Lightning getting married? I don't believe it." Said Wilbur.
"The wedding rehearsal tonight and the actual wedding is tomorrow."
"I can't believe that little boy that Artemis had found and adopted is actually getting hitched, I never thought he be that kind of type. So who the lucky girl?" said Wilbur.
"Her name is Sally, she the town's lawyer and owner of the Cozy Cone hotel." Said Doc before the concept of Lightning's past came to mind.
"Lightning is adopted?" questioned Doc.
"Oh yeah, I remember that night Artemis and her husband brought him home after finding him abandon on the motheroad." Said Wilbur.
"Poor kid, I never knew, he never told me." Said Doc with a gloomy expression on his face.
"He was plenty young when they adopted him so I presumed that he doesn't know the truth either, he thinks that they are his actual parents." Said Wilbur again. Both Doc and Wilbur chatted for while not noticing that Artemis had finally pulled up to her cabin and went drove inside.
Meanwhile
Back in Radiator Springs
Everybody was at Flo's enjoying their lunch. Lightning and Sally chatting with the Wedding Planner, Flo was talking to Ramone and the others. Sheriff was sitting alone in the stall next to Lightning and Sally's.
Sally noticed Sheriff sitting in his stall not sipping from his can of oil.
"Anything wrong, Sheriff?" she asked quietly so the others on the other side of him won't hear.
"Thinking about Arte." He said quietly.
"If you really want to talk to her, Sheriff, you should go to her and tell her how you really feel about her." Said Lightning.
Sheriff stared at the red stock car for a few seconds.
"Your right, McQueen" he said as he finished his can and took off towards the entrance of the town.
"What was that about?" asked Flo as she drove up to the engaged couple.
"Going to my hometown and bring my mother back." Said Lightning.
"But I thought Doc went to get her?" questioned Flo.
"He has some business to finish up with her." Said Sally.
"Oh" said Flo as she noticed the love affection expression on his face before he left.
Flo went back to work while the others enjoy their cans talking about the upcoming wedding. While Sheriff speeded off towards the sunset to win the woman that he knew he loved and wanted.
