Now we get to the more canon chapter of me and Meika. But before that it has come to my attention with something and some idiots. They think just because Vyxx says those things in the episode (19 to be exact) to Tamira it’s probably to piss the pantheress off as Tamira hates being called nicknames which is a canon fact from the official website. Vyxx doesn’t have any feelings for the feline. Besides Tamira would kill Vyxx if that hyena did anything. Vyxx and Tamira will never be together. Whoever thinks that needs to get that out of their head. Also the one who hates what I’m doing the most is still thinking this is a damn joke. They need to knock it off. Also for Riq’s story watch episode 17 to learn what happened.

Riq and Zero
Mr. Mane, his wife, Meika’s group, Hart, the other two investigators, Sig, Jacob, and the swans entered the hotel room. There in the front room was a male manned wolf. Tall and thin with light blue eyes, and tan fur, he looked to them with a thoughtful look, his mouth neutral. The guy was wearing a simple grey colored shirt and blue jeans. His shoes matched his top. “I am Zero,” he stated, his voice not distorted.
“This is him?” the male lion thought in his head.
“He’s nothing like I’d thought he’d be,” Hart said in his mind. Everyone else were thinking similar thoughts. They then all brought out IDs to show who they really were and that’s how everyone learned each other’s names.
“I’m very sorry we’re late,” Mrs. Mane said. “We ran into a little bit of traffic, and-“
Zero raised up his right paw and formed the shape of gun with his fingers like what kids do when playing. “Bang!” he exclaimed.
“Wha..?” Jacob asked in surprise.
“What the hell was that?!” Mr. Jones asked. The rest were surprised by this and didn’t know what to think.
“If I were the enemy, you’d be dead right now Mr. Jones for not behaving like they say to,” Zero replied. The group’s eyebrows went up. The Manned wolf turned to the side to head into the living room like area but was still looking at them. “The ones who have been pulling the strings in the shadows clearly will stop at nothing to achieve their plans. But I assumed some of you had already figured that much out, haven’t you? Please do not let your guards down so easily… instead, let’s value our lives.”
The guy walked towards the living room like area. The curtains were all drawn shut not just because light hadn’t come out yet, but for security reasons as well. “I knew King played dirty, but I didn’t realize he’s gone back on his word,” Meika said to Tamira.
“There’s more to it than that,” the pantheress replied. “A lot more than you know.”
“That’s enough small talk for now, come this way please,” Zero then stated. He nodded to the table next to the group. “Please turn off all your cellphones, other electronics, and communication devices, and leave them on that table there.”
“What; you think we’re going to be using those to leak out information during this meeting?!” Hart stated.
“It’s alright,” Mr. Mane told the snapping turtle. “Just do as he says.”
Everyone brought those things out and placed them on the table. “I know he’s been cautious since the very beginning, but I still can’t tell if he trusts us or not,” one of the other investigators said.
“No, it’s just that I find them distracting,” Zero answered as he sat down at one of the chairs in the living room area. “I can’t stand it why people’s cellphones are ringing while I’m trying to talk.” The group went in there and saw the place was a nice suite. “Let me start by saying nobody takes any notes on anything that’s said at this meeting or any others I’ll have with Hart and the investigators. That means when we leave headquarters an information we need is committed to memory. Please, make yourselves comfortable.”
Everyone sat down on the sofas and chairs that weren’t occupied. Zero even had some drinks and refreshments out of the breakfast kind to help. A couple here took some of these like Sonny. “So excuse me Zero…?” Meika asked.
The Manned wolf shook his head not to be stern but a gentle no. “I’ll have to ask that you stop calling me Zero; it’s Ronald from now on, just to be safe,” he replied.
“Uh… okay then Ronald. So how exactly can you help us?”
“I think it’s best here if Tag here started,” Zero replied. The rest looked to the tiger who knew what the investigator meant as Riq had told him about this.
“There’s someone I’d like you to meet,” he announced. “Guys… meet my father.”
The older tiger stepped out from around a corner and came forward. Sonny saw the legend and freaked out. “But… that… that’s Riq the Ripper!” he exclaimed, standing up. Some others were in shock as well. “Three time champion of four different racing tournaments! The Terror on the Track! The Driveshaft Dagger! But… you’re dead.”
Riq let out a chuckle and shook Sonny’s paw. “All true,” he replied. “Except that last part.”
“How did you even get in here to this room? Past all the security and stuff?”
“I’ve spent the last 14 years learning to be invisible. I’ve picked up a few tricks from living in the shadows.”
Miles looked around the corner Riq had come from and saw an opened box. “At least this time you didn’t smuggle him in a box,” he told Tamira who had a triumphant grin on her face.
“You don’t look too surprised Meelo,” Tag told the chameleon.
“It makes sense,” he said. “They never found the body. But how do we know you are who you say you are? I should run a test just to make sure that you’re not-“
“An alien?” Tag suggested.
“An imposter you nitwit!”
“Trust me, it’s him alright,” Mile told Meelo. He looked to Riq. “Sorry about this one. Not the most trusting of people given the circumstances.”
“Yes, your former friend Ashley,” Riq replied. “The High Command and Ringmaster spy.”
“The what for the who?” Sonny asked. Meika looked down in sadness.
“After everything that’s happened, it’s only fair you guys know the whole story,” Tag stated. “Who we’re really up against.”
“Yes and what else we need to deal with,” went a familiar voice.
Everyone jumped and looked up in shock to see Nicholas and the rest of the racers on the side of the good step out. John was with them to. “Wha… Nicholas is here?!” Meika stated, getting up like Sonny. “But.. how? Why?”
He went over to her and smiled, placing a right paw on her shoulder. “I told you, you would learn why I couldn’t go with you right away,” the husky stated. “But this is why. But first I think Tag’s father needs to talk.”
The younger tiger looked to Riq. “Tell them. Everything.” His father began with what happened on that day after everyone was seated. Nicholas as always sat next to the vixen.
When it was over, Sonny was had one paw over his eyes. Meika was pinching the bridge of her nose. “I can’t believe it…’ the vixen whispered.
“So this Smythe character, he messed with your race car after you rejected the offer from these… Ringmasters?” Sonny asked.
“And King took my place as the figurehead they were looking for,” Rig stated. “I wouldn’t be surprised if he had a part in my ‘accident’ as well.”
“And the Ringmaster have been running the RPG ever since,” Tag said.
“So who are these Ringmasters?” the male bear asked.
“That’s a riddle I’ve been trying to solve for the past 14 years,” Riq replied. He looked to the pantheress in here. “Tamira?”
“For months, Meelo and I have been working on that,” she replied. “There’s specific information on the Ringmasters in the black box. However, someone corrupted the data, just before we started the decryption process.”
“Who?” Meika asked.
Nicholas spoke up this time. “The other Ringmaster spy,” he stated. “It’s Torres.” Those from the RGP were shocked.
“Her?!” the vixen stated. “How can you be so sure?!”
“It wasn’t Ashley. But Torres was the only other person besides King who would have had access to that room where it was. When I heard about the black box from Riq, since he’s in contact with Tamira, I tried looking into that rabbit’s history since I know what her position is. To my surprise, all traces of her history and records have vanished. Others though have managed to find enough info left to explain why she’s working for the enemy. Her father never fully understood her. And it was that hatred of him that drove Torres to join up with the enemy. She must have had enough time during the race of last season to sneak into where the black box was and do her job before getting out of there.”
“She messed with the box so we wouldn’t be able to find out about them,” Sonny said sadly as he couldn’t believe another enemy had been revealed.
“And she did a good job of that,” Meelo commented. “We’ve made no progress on accessing those files.”
“So wait a minute…” Sonny said, standing up. “All this time you guys kept me in the dark about all this?” Meika looked up to him with worry as she could tell he was getting angry. Mia was like that as well. “The Ringmasters, Riq, everything else; everybody knew?!”
“I didn’t know about Riq,” Meelo replied.
Sonny let out an angry laugh. “Oh, that makes me feel so much better! Any other bombshells you guys wanna clue me in on?!”
“Actually…. It gets worse,” Tamira stated. “Vyxx knows about the RGP Headquarters break-in. Nobody knows about that except us…”
“And King,” Tag finished the thought.
“That got me digging up more info on these new ‘rookies’,” Riq said. “Had to go through some of my old underground contacts… and you’re not going to like what I found. The RGP part of this racing tournament specifically chose them to race for them this season. But these new ‘rookies’ aren’t just random nobodies. Turns out, each of them already have a reputation over the years… in the criminal underworld. Vyxx? She goes by another name: The Collector. When there’s a debt that’s overdue, she’s the one who gets sent out. From what I’ve heard, it usually ends with them paying up more than what they owed. Xeno’s been around much longer. When it comes to illegal, black market tech, that’s the guy to see. And for anyone looking to start some trouble, he’s got the hook-up to the best, and worst, tools for the job.”
“What about that other guy?” Tag asked. “Pike?”
“He’s the one who worries me.” Nicholas’s glared and his lips pulled back in a snarl when hearing this. “Most were too scared to even talk about him. Within a few short years, he took over the biggest crime syndicates. It takes a special kind of ruthlessness and strategy to do something like that. I don’t know what they’re here for. But whatever it is… it can’t be good.”
“I guess that also answers who came up with this thing,” Meelo said, pulling out Xeno’s device. Riq recognized the symbol and realized who had done the thing to his car now.
“That probably means that Ashley and Torres are mixed up with them as well,” Meika said.
“But even so, there’s more to it,” Mr. Mane then stated.
“He’s right,” Nicholas replied. “Now I think I can talk about High Command. And why I know what’s going on along with some of the others here.” The husky went on to explain when he had first noticed something wasn’t right. It had been after his first major win where had won first that the guy had told about to Meika and the others. One of the racers there had mysteriously vanished. The husky had done some digging around only to discover to his horror, the dead body. But a clue had been left with it, hidden away. It had the name High Command and a bit of data. That data was one of the small records of High Command that had been found which would lead to the others Nicholas had mentioned to Riq on the phone call before the racing season started. Showing this to Jessica she dug in deeper and that lead to the discovery they had been in control of the racing world even longer than the Ringmasters. That group had only formed as side branch for the RPG six years after High Command did to expand their power. Which meant High Command were the real ones in control. Nicholas sought out the help from Cody, Mia, Daniel, and Rachel who he knew could be trusted. That included Kira and John as well. They had all had a private meeting with Mr. Mane and his wife who also had suspicions about the racing part of Aispir City for years but had never been able to fully figure it out until that moment.
“That’s why I really contacted King and combinded our tournaments,” the male lion stated. “To finally put an end to this evil. This has gone on long enough for over 20 years with High Command and 14 years for the Ringmasters.”
How the group learned how Victor got involved was due to a suspicious accident on his end. It had almost costed him his life. That got the avian to talking to Nicholas who told the Lyrie bird everything and Victor agreed to help. For Miss Ballard, the reason she revealed she was in on this and a racer was to attack the enemy from the inside. She had also been a victim due to being attacked financially and that had hurt some of her family members. Luckily that hadn’t happened again but now the female wanted to get back at them. Her boyfriend was in on this as well. Nicholas then went on to explain about Lezo. After hearing the name from Razor and finding no trace of him, Riq got to work. The tiger found out that Lezo was the head of a crime family. But he had connections to High Command for years. And he had sent Razor to race for him. Those other three that used to be with Pike back in the old days also worked for him and even though those idiots weren’t in the racing tournament anymore were dangerous. But the evil feline was definitely the second most dangerous after Pike. After all he was Lezo’s top muscle male to get things done. And then Nicholas revealed here that the group finally figured out the threats some months back had come from Lezo. This caused concern, but there had been no more from those.
“And now you know,” Nicholas finished. “That is why we’re fighting and with you guys as well.”
The silence then sank in as people absorbed this information. “Now then, let’s take a break for a bit,” Zero stated. “Also Meelo, do you have the black box with you like you were asked? I’d like to look into it.”
“Sure, but be careful.” The chameleon explained the problems with copying the data over and all that like he had with Tamira. But the meeting wasn’t over just yet.

So there you have it folks. Pike is evil, deadly, and not meant to be loved. If anyone deserves to be killed off in the show, it's him. Or at the very least strongly hinted at. And considering his crime he'd get life sentence or the death penalty which I'm sure is in the world of Rimba Racer. And as for Vyxx, that hyena won't be with Tamira. Instead it will be Tag. I guarantee it. Also while we're getting closer to the end of Episode 21 this is taking longer than expected but will be out in January 2020. Next time it will only be a profile pic but it's one that needs to be shown before the story continues.
