Gryffin looked at the smaller boy. "Hey Bryan, Lynx and Iara are here, how about you go find them."

"Okay," said Bryan as he let go of his sister's wrist and ran off to find Iara and Lynx.

"I don't know how long that will last," Gryffin said as he watched Iara playfully nudging Lynx.

"Eh, it's long enough," shrugged Stephanie, "At least that'll keep them all occupied for the moment, at least until the party starts."

The DRH, along with significant others, pulled up before the ranch house. "Hey, we gonna party down today or what?"
It was noted that at least two of them were towing "tot trailers" in which they carried their offspring, and another of the SO's was expecting. They were settled men now, though still retaining their tuner culture and roots.
DJ lifted his nose and sniffed. "I think that's Brady coming with Ebony's family. He knows how to put on a show!"
Boost waved to Phoenix and Ricardo as Shrike let their daughter down. Suzanne was almost two years old, and looked at the world with huge, soft grey eyes. Her mother nuzzled her reassuringly as she took in these new surroundings.
Snotty came up to Delfina. "Hey! How's the birthday girl dealing with all of this?"
"Looks like your brother and friends beat us in." Kendall remarked to Ebony as they went onto the long ranch drive.
"Wish it would occupy Brandon for a few minutes." Melissa irritably swept her tail boom away from her brother.

"Pretty good considering she's turning 12 years old," answered Delfina, "She's spending time with Gryffin and Melissa right now."
Ricardo and Phoenix waved back as they watched Iara and Lynx play, even when Bryan joins in.

"Yeah, I picked that up even before we left home," said Ebony, "I am a medium, after all."
*****
Stephanie leaned over, "Maybe we can think up something to get him off your tail."

Melissa harrumphed. "I think he's still jealous because I got the Euro tail and can move around quieter. Anyway, I'm open to suggestions."
Brandon just giggled and continued with his torments.
"Looks like they have all their families with'em." Kendall pulled up and waved to all.
"Looks like Ebs and Ken are here." Snotty turned as the latest group arrived.

"Well, Mom says that I can't use my magic for anything yet, but there's younger kids his age here," said Stephanie, "Why can't he go play with them?"
*****
Kestrel and Falcon broke away from their parents and went over to where Gryffin was.
Artemis stayed with her mother.
*****
"They said that they were gonna be a little late in coming," said Delfina, "I've been wondering why."

"Yeah," Gryffin said as he flicked his mirrors and looked to where Kestrel and Falcon were pulling up.

"Hey, Man," said Falcon as he Kestrel came up, "What's up?"

"Not much yet," Gryffin said with a shrug. "Just got here too."

"Yeah, so did we," said Kestrel, "But Mom and Dad made us wait for a bit until his friends arrived. Did you ever see such a loudly turned-out Escalade before?"

DJ let the cat out of the bag. "That's the sound and light crew that's gonna do a show here tonight. I know Brady, he's a great guy. I'm gonna help him out some."
"'Cause pestering Big Sis is more fun." Melissa snorted and rolled her eyes.
"Hey guys," Miles came back, "You should see what McQueen brought in. A big pinata - of Chick Hicks!"
Brandon let off on his pestering. "Betcha Kamui's gonna want a big whack at it!"
"G'day." Kendall called out. "Our gang's all here."
Alexis was to assist the two van technicians with their gear, but while she rolled along to the area to be used, she slid a glance back towards the children, especially Stephanie. The midnight-blue new-model 'Vette eyed the girl for a moment or two, getting an overall impression of features and comparing them to the information her "handlers" had given her. She had been working for Brady's business for perhaps three weeks, and no one there yet knew that much about her, or who her REAL boss was.

"Really?" asked 15-year-old Falcon, "Cool."
*****
"Well, I think we all know how she feels about that Chick," said Stephanie, "And I don't blame her."
*****
"Hola, Amigo," Ricardo called back, "Glad you all could make it."
"Well, we're here now," answered Ebony as she went over to the Stealth and the Trans Am with Artemis following close behind her.

"Yeah, calling someone a "mutt" on national TV would tend to do that." Melissa smirked. "A wonder they still let him race at all."
"I wanna have a crack at it too." Brandon licked his chops with anticipation.
A few trucks and helos were coming in from elsewhere, parking or landing some distance away and letting off passengers.
Brandon quivered with excitement. "Race cars! Awesome!"
"And so is half the racing world, apparently." Kendall glanced towards the fields that had been set up as a landing zone and for trailer parking.
"OK, where's the El Chicko pinata?" a female voice was already calling out. "Can I use the sword fan on it, huh?"
"There wouldn't be much left of it for anyone else if you did, Exan." the gruff voice of an older truck interjected.
"You're no fun at all, Nevada." Kamui snorted.
"So you keep telling me." the truck smirked.
Another voice spoke up behind Ebony. "Hey guys, guess it's been a while."
Kendall turned about. "Darcy!"
"So tonight will purely rock." DJ grinned.
