Lightning's Promise

Lightning's Promise is the first episode of Lightning McQueen and Friends.
==Story==
It was a beautiful day in the town of Radiator Springs. Lightning McQueen the race car was racing with his friends Chick Hicks, Cruz Ramirez, Luigi, Guido and Mater.
"This is so much fun!" said Cruz.
"I know!" said Lightning. 
"I'm gonna pass you, Lightning!" said Chick.
"Oh yeah?" said Lightning. "We'll see about that!"
Chick tried to get ahead of Lightning, but Lightning wouldn't let him. Lightning won the race, and all of his friends cheered for him.
"Bravo, Lightning!" cheered Luigi. 
"Way to go, buddy!" cried Mater.
"Great racing!" added Cruz.
"Thanks, everyone!" said Lightning.
Just then, Mack the truck pulled up. He was delivering a new shipment of oil to Flo's V8 Cafe.
"Hey, everyone!" said Mack when he saw Lightning and his friends.
Then there was a problem. Mack hit a bump and fell on his side! Mack's trailer burst open, and all the gas cans fell out!
"Oh no!" said Mack. "How am I gonna get the gas to Flo's now?" 
"Don't worry, Mack." said Lightning. "We'll deliver the gas to Flo's for you while you get your trailer fixed!"
"You will?" said Mack.
"I promise!" said Lightning.
"We all promise!" said Cruz. 
Mack smiled. "Thanks, guys!" he said. "You're all such great friends!"
The gas cans were loaded into wagons for Lightning and his friends to pull. Lightning, Chick, Cruz, Luigi, Guido and Mater hitched themselves to the wagons of gas. 
"Be very careful!" called Mack.
"We'll be careful, Mack!" said Lightning. "We promise!"
And Lightning and his friends set off with the wagons of gas.
"OK, everyone." said Lightning. "We have to get this gas to Flo's, and we have to be very careful pulling it! Remember, we're doing this for Mack!"
"For Mack!" said Mater, Cruz, Chick, Luigi and Guido. 
Lightning and his friends drove very slowly and carefully with the wagons of gas. They soon grew tired of going so slow. That's when Lightning came up with an idea.
"If we race," said Lightning, "we'll get to Flo's faster!"
"Great idea, Lightning!" said Cruz. "Let's see who can get to Flo's first!"
The race was on! Lightning and his friends zoomed down the road! They all wanted to get to Flo's first. Chick sped past Lightning!
"I'll get to Flo's before you, Lightning!" said Chick. 
Lightning revved his engine fiercely, and went faster and faster. Lightning soon managed to get ahead of Chick. 
"I'll get to Flo's before you, Chick!" said Lightning.
Luigi and Guido tried to get ahead of one another.
"I will-a get to Flo's first!" said Luigi.
"No! I will!" said Guido.
Suddenly, Mater sped past Luigi and Guido!
"I'm the fastest tow truck ever!" said Mater. "I'll be the first one to get to Flo's!"
Lightning and his friends went faster and faster. They were forgetting their promise to Mack to be careful. Cruz zoomed past Lightning and Chick! She was determined to get to Flo's before them. 
"I'm the queen of speed!" said Cruz. 
The gas cans jiggled inside the wagons. Then there was a problem. Guido bumped into Luigi, who bumped into Mater, who bumped into Chick, who bumped into Lightning, who bumped into Cruz! It was a disaster! 
"Oh no!" said Chick. "We were supposed to be careful with these wagons of gas!"
"We forgot our promise to Mack!" said Mater.
"I feel awful." said Lightning.
"So do I." said Cruz.
"We're gonna keep our promise to Mack!" said Lightning with determination. "We're gonna go slowly and be careful with these wagons of gas!"
So Lightning and the others set off again with the wagons of gas. They went very slowly and were very careful. It didn't matter who got to Flo's first. What mattered was keeping their promise to Mack. In no time at all, Lightning and his friends made it to Flo's V8 Cafe.
"Thanks for delivering my new shipment of gas, guys!" said Flo.
"You're welcome, Flo." said Lightning.
"We're always happy to help!" added Cruz.
Later that day, Mack and Doc Hudson drove up to Lightning and his friends. Mack's trailer was as good as new.
"Thanks for fixing me up, Doc!" said Mack.
"No problem, Mack." replied Doc.
"Nice to see you got your trailer fixed, Mack!" said Lightning. 
"How did getting the gas to Flo's go?" asked Mack.
"It went very well!" replied Cruz.
"Yeah!" said Lightning. "Because we were very careful and we took our time!"
Mack smiled. "Thanks, guys!" he said. "I knew I could count on you!"
And Mack drove off.
Lightning and his friends smiled. They were very proud of themselves for keeping their promise to Mack.
