"It gets even more interesting once they start some of their endurance contests like who-can-fly-upsidedown-the-longest or who-can-belch-the-loudest or something really 'silly' like that. So when were you last at the Academy?" said Xeron.

Slaytor lowers his wipers, which he used to catch the wires of the whip, slammed his tire on the ground once, furious... then he let it go. "Cocky bastard thought he had me..." He grins a little and heads back towards town, time for more patches, and... time to talk to Ebony.

Rico blinks, "About ten years ago, just before the whole desert thing got started. When that happenned we got pushed through training."

"I'm not going to leave you, ever," Slick promised as he wrapped the nightcover around himself and Kamui.
~~~~~~~~~~
Emily was still hiding out and trying to ignore Shroder.
~~~~~~~~~~
Ebony relaxed a bit. All she wanted was to make sure she remains healthy during her in term period. This was going to require help from her closest friends.
~~~~~~~~~~
"That makes it better for me it was previously," nodded Hydro.

"Gurl? Oi! Gurl?" said Shroder waving antenna and wipers at Emily.
When that didn't work, he stopped and grumbled.
"Are ya ah ca'r er ah statu? I can' tell, man!" said Shroder.
_______________________________________________
"Thanks, hon. I'm sorry if I scared you before," said Kamui.
She started nuzzling again. But she didn't quite want to bring up her adventures in the desert and her falling in to two pits though. She thought she might worry him even more.
_______________________________________________
"I see...." said Xeron.
That was the thing with her Apache line. There were very few civilian Apaches out there. They were born in to military service and didn't have too many choices from there while everyone else did. Her expression fell.
That's why I'm different....

Zed smiles, "Yeah, and then when the condo's are built we can all have more privacy... living with your ladyfriend and two other guys in a hotel suite tends to make alone time few and far between. Slaytor wants you and your family to have a place of your own, so he managed to wheedle you, Boost, Ebony, and your mother into a five car house, unless you want your own place. That brings to mind a question, Do you know any others who could use a job in a construction project?"
---
Slaytor, half covered in dust, the filler patches in shreds on his hood, pulls up to Ebony's tent, "Knock knock."

Emily gave Shroder an annoyed look.
"What's your problem?" she asked tersely, "Why don't you leave me alone?"
~~~~~~~~~~
Meredith was resting behind one of the abandoned buildings, having been given the go-ahead to get some rest and that she and Natalie will pick up where they left off tomorrow. She sat there bored with nothing to do until she saw Emily pass her by and hide in one of the abandoned buildings. A little later, she saw Shroder, and this peeked her interest. Why would that tow truck be interested in the Mazda girl? Meredith rolled a little bit further out and listened in.
~~~~~~~~~~
"Hmmm..." Hydro had to think for a moment, "I'd say there would be some members of the DRH that would be interested, although I would have to track them down. They're all spread out all over the country."
~~~~~~~~~~
Ebony lifted weary eyes toward the tent entrance.
"Who is it?" she asked.

(OOC: How old is Rico anyways? I think Xeron's 25yrs. I can't quite remember off-hand, though. ^^;; )
Xeron looked back up. She flustered again when she wanted to say thanks for the avgas and her guns bristled a little like Rosa's spikes.
"Oh! For Ford's sake!" Xeron muttered.
This meant preening... again. She didn't want to do it full out infront of Rico.
"Sorry! They sometimes have a mind of their own!" said Xeron sheepishly.
____________________________________
Shroder jumped.
"GYAH! DUN' HURT ME! I DIDN' TAK' NOTHIN'! I SWE'R!" Shroder yelped.

Slaytor smiles, "'S just me."
---
Zed smiles, "Well, we're gonna need help, and I'd rather pay friends than strangers."
---
Rico looks a little concerned, "I know, though the fighter choppers I was in school with always had them out like that... One of the older instructors taught a way to calm them down. Do you want to learn it?"
(Rico's about 32, went into service as soon as he was able to and started ten years ago.)

((I'm alive! Lotta catching up. I had an idea for Ramone, and Zed, I posted as the band ages ago. I'm starting to get frustrated with you not paying attention to my posts.)) Elke looked rather startled at the question. "Um... I come from a laboratory in a country called Luxembourg." She shrugged slightly, as though it didn't matter to her what had happened in her past. _____________________ Ramone had, of course, seen Kamui rush past, and he'd watched her go for a moment, but hadn't gone after her. He'd had enough danger and the like to last him at least a month. He had, instead, began to paint red and green lettering on one of the windows of his shop in washable spray paint, and when he was finished it read 'Discounts on Christmas paint jobs'. He settled back a bit to admire his work, and then, deciding that that wasn't enough, set about painting a Christmas tree next to his advertisement. He couldn't help himself, he just loved to paint. That was why he'd run his shop for so many years. _____________________ ((:\ Yes. Ramone is painting Christmas trees on his windows. ))

Emily blinked, "Boy, you sure are jumpy aren't you?" Then she peered closely at Shroder, "Wait a minute, I think I've seen you earlier. You were around when I had that confrontation with Slick and that Shooter girl... although I don't know why he would go for someone like her..."
(((((OOC: When Emily's PO'd, she tends to start to blabbing to anyone nearby who would listen...)))))
~~~~~~~~~~
Hydro nodded, "It would take me awhile, but I can track them down and possibly bring them here. I can do it."
~~~~~~~~~~
Ebony blinked, "Slaytor?"

Slaytor noses aside the tent flap, "Yep, just me." He looks a fright, exactly as if he'd just been in another brawl, scratched, dusty, and a spot of scorched paint on his fender. "I need to tell you something."
---
Breakbeat nods, and he shrugs, "Everybody's gonna mess up once in a while, besides, it's the sign of a good band to be able to play through that kind of thing." He hears the 'my band' comment and sighs. "Tell me, did you join the band to work for him? or to work for yourself?"

Xeron blinked.
"Yes. I would like to learn how... thank you. These always make a nusance of themselves when I feel the slightest emotion," said Xeron.

He then grinned now that he had something he could tease Emily with.
"Ah... didja know dat dey now liv' tageth'r an' sha'r da sam' trail'r? Dey've bee'n doin' ah lot of stuffz tageth'r. Actualleh, dey ev'n had ah show'r tageth'r juzt now," said Shroder mischeviously.

Rico nods, "Ok, close your eyes, and picture yourself flying along, full tank, clear radar, no threats within miles, just watching the clouds drift by around you." His voice softens, " Look down and see the world rolling by, not a care in the world. You're in friendly airspace... Now open your eyes."

(((((OOC: And that is really gonna gross Emily out... and she doesn't care too much for Shooters or other mixed-breeds, either... she's just like Hadrian... ))))) "WHAT?!" Emily near-shouted, jumping up, and stared at Shroder, "You mean that Slick and-and-and that Shooter girl, Kamui Whatever her name is, are together?! That can't be possible! What does he see in that Shooter mutt anyway?" She was angry and was beginning to show it. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ebony looked at Slaytor. "What is it?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ And meanwhile, Mater was looking for someone to go tractor tipping with him. He still hadn't found anybody yet, until he decided to go see what was happening over in the tents. (((((OOC: A good opportunity for Elke to meet Mater... ;D ))))) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Oh, that's across the Atlantic Ocean, isn't it?" said Lynda, "Luxombourg is in Germany somewhere, I believe." (((((OOC: And I guess it's up to me to puppet Eva's characters until she gets back.)))))

Slaytor pulls forward, "I made a promise to protect you." He kisses her on the lips, "And I'm a car of my word."
He pulls in next to her and settles down.
---
Zed smiles, "Do that, see of you can get solid contact numbers. You can naver have too many friends you can call on."
