Chase groaned, how did he get stuck with a sister with a big mouth. "Sheily please. Don't be such a killjoy."
Sheila frowned. "I just wanna know if I missed on something fun. Didja get Uncle Nelly again?"

"Uh, I guess you can say he did," said Maven.
"And it was kinda funny," admitted Krill, "and I wish I had Uncle Hydro's antenna cam intalled right now. Would've made a great video to post on the Internet."

"That would be awesome," Chase said. "Then we could make a website of how he can scream like a girl."
Sheila giggled. "Those are always funny. And Mom and Aunt Ebs are coming, they heard you guys racing into town."

Krill bit his lip, "Oh man, Mom's gonna be mad at us. We're gonna get the Dreaded Lecture in a few minutes."
A older Dodge Viper, black in color with her old spirit wolf design still visible, approached the younger cars. To be honest, she did not look angry, but rather concerned. She stopped and looked pointedly at her two oldest children.
"So, you've been racing in town, so I've heard," she said evenly, "you know you're not supposed to do that, don't you?"
Krill wiggled his tire on the driveway, "Yeah, Mom."
"It's dangerous," continued Ebony, "I don't want to see you get hurt."
"Mom, we're practically 21," said Maven, "we can take care of ourselves."
"Of course, but you should at least let your old mother watch out for you both," said Ebony, "I don't want to lose you."
"We know, Mom," chorused both Maven and Krill.

Another car, a late model Trans Am modded for circuit racing followed behind Ebony and gave her son and gave him a concerned look. "Chase, you're suppose to be setting an example for Sheila." Phoenix said. "And I would hate to tell you're father that Edward put you in the Impound for speeding."
Chase smiled sheepishly, much like his father. "I know and I'm sorry Mom, we've just been so bored lately, there's not much to do. But we did come up with something . It was Krill's idea."
Phoenix raised an eyeshade with a chuckle. "Really," She turned to her oldest nephew. "And what is this brilliant idea?"

"Well, Aunt Nix," said Krill, "We were talking about what we wanted to do before summer ends and we came up with a cross-country trip on Route 66 all the way to Chicago."
"So who's all going to go?" asked Ebony.
"Me, Maven, Chase, Hideki, Cerisa, Bran, Marian, Shane, Ethan, and Arista," said Maven, "We'll all be together and watch out for each other."
"Route 66," mused Ebony, "I always wanted to go all the way to Chicago myself on it. But I can't on account of health problems."
"We'll keep in touch," assured Krill, "So you won't have to worry about where we are. Besides, Arista has that map thing covered already."
"Take Justin with you," said Ebony.
"Aww, Mom," whined Krill.
"I can barely deal with his behavior and attitude," continued Ebony, "You know how I'd get if I'm too stressed-out. This will do him some good to go on this trip."
"Fine," answered Krill, "We'll take him along."
"Thank you," nodded Ebony.

The helos had been watching all this with some amusement. Bran was getting quite irritated with his brother and sister jeering and hooting, and whirled and snapped irritably at the closest one.
"Hey, easy bro!" Shane protested.
"Just stay outta my way, all right?" Bran tossed his nose at them.
"Oh, he's just like that when we... EMBARRASS HIM!" Marian smiled from a safer distance.
Bran blushed when he saw Arista staring at him... she's probably thinking I'm some goon who eats his family or something...
"Yeah... you can show me the way anytime..."

Gee, and we just met, Arista thought.
"Uh... sure," she said, "I'm not going to let anybody get lost. Is there anywhere we could go to get away from them?" She indicated Marian and Shane with a rotor blade.

"I think its a great idea." Phoenix said. "As long as you don't cause to much trouble."
Chase grinned and Sheila looked at her mother."Mom, can I go, please?"
"We'll have to talk to your father about that." Phoenix said. "You might have to wait a few more years."
"Aww..." Sheila pouted and Chase had a 'Thank Chrysler' look on his front.

"I wouldn't let her go if I were you," said Ebony, "I didn't let these two out of my sight when they were Sheila's age."
"Mom," whined Krill, "stop it. You're embarrassing us."
Maven rolled her eyes, "I bet she had a very good reason."
"Yes, you could've gotten into trouble if I or anybody else weren't watching you."

"Then maybe hold of 'til you're older." Phoenix said. "We'll let you go and Chase will take you."
Sheila grinned at Chase who groaned. "Mom."
Phoenix turned to Krill. "When will you guys leave?"

"Early tomorrow morning," replied Krill, "We want to have an early start."
"Hmmm, early morning, huh?" asked Ebony, "Why don't we all have breakfast tomorrow at Flo's so that we all can wish you a good trip?"
Maven smiled, "I like that idea, Mom."

"Its a great idea." Phoenix said. "Then I suggest you get some sleep. I know someone who won't get up unless the world falls on top of him." She said glancing at Chase.
"Hey," Chase shrugged. "I'm a teenager, what do you excpect."
"Still," Phoenix said. "You lot need to be getting some rest, you're gonna have a drive ahead of ya."

"And I'll take you back home, Cerisa," Ebony told the teen girl, then turned to the twins, "Justin's already home, so you two have to go on home, alright?"
"Sure, Mom," said the twins, in the occasional habit of speaking at the same time.

"And lets get you two home," Phoenix said nudging Sheila. "Your father would like to know what you have planned."
"Alright, Mom." Chase said and waved to his cousins as they worked their way home. "See ya guys in the morning."
Phoenix nudged the door open. "Hun, it was them coming into town. And I already gave him a talking to. And you should hear what he and his cousins have planned." She said with a grin.
