"Well I don't think he'll cause any problems there." Kitt said to Sapphire. "Maybe after things settle down he'll come out of his shell."

Natalie paced the inner perimeter of the drive-in theater, collecting her thoughts in the process. Now that her sentence was over with, what options did she have?
She knew what she didn't want to do: go home. She would move on. However, at 30 MPH tops, she'd probably be ticketed for going too slowly on the Interstate. With such a flurry of activity in town, the idea of going to Doc's clinic to ask that the restrictor plate be removed wasn't first on her list.
She wondered idly what Meredith was up to. The GT wouldn't admit it to anyone, but she'd felt better when having someone like the black Corvette to talk to during her working hours at the heliport.
In short, Natalie wasn't sure about what to do with herself. The allure of a life of street racing and crime had dulled in the last few weeks. Going home wasn't what she wanted, and at the same time she knew there were people in this town, namely a certain crowd of tuners, who'd like to see her gone ASAP.
The GT halted at the drive-in's entrance, taking advantage of the shade there. Now, in hindsight, she saw the hole she'd dug and got herself stuck in. And, just maybe, it was for the better that she deserved this dilemma.

"I-I don't know..." Petra whimpered as she cowered as well, "C-could be... b-but I don't want to f-find out..."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"However he got here, he must be exhausted from his trip," said Sapphire, agreeing with Kitt, "So maybe it's a good idea to leave him alone for a bit. Our watching him may be making him uncomfortable."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Aaron was still under the weather and was resting on his mat when he heard Kamui's voice.
"Hullo..." he called out, "I'm here... I'm not allowed to go outside... What's going on out there...?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Meredith was still hanging out by Ebony's Cone as well as observing the newcomer come into town. She noticed how nervous he was when he started getting attention from the town's inhabitants and somehow felt sorry for him.
Poor guy, she thought, I know exactly how you feel.

"More than likely. He'll talk when he's comfortable with everything around here." Kitt said. "After all, intimidation doesn't work all the time."

"Yo, Aaron! Anyways, it's just another airplane prank and Oh! We have a new guest in town too. A Dodge Interceptor named Raven... from Europe!" said Kamui comming over to Aaron.

"Exactly," agreed Sapphire, "And I know that all too well. Happens all the time on the racetrack. We should give him some space."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Really...?" asked Aaron, "Do you know how this guy got here...? He sounds really cool..."

Kamui was probably NOT the best one to explain this to Aaron. Actually, next to Otter, Petra, and Shroder, Kamui was probably one of the WORST ones to explain this. She lowered her voice and almost whispered to Aaron.
"Actually.... I think he's a space alien! I've seen him fly!" said Kamui in a low tone.

"He's a space alien? Cool!" Aaron suddenly jumped up, all excited and wanted to meet this flying space alien, "I wanna meet him!"
Then he started coughing and settled back down on his mat. He probably shouldn't have done that.

"Er... maybe you can still! He has some cloaking device thingy and he's taking the form of a car!" said Kamui.

"He can transform? Awesome!" Aaron said in a slightly less excited voice, "Is he still here?"

"Yup. I think he's hiding out close by. But if he comes here to visit, you have to pretend that you dunno he's an alien, alright?" said Kamui.

"Right. Got it," agreed Aaron, "I'll pretend that he's not an alien."

Kamui grinned.
"Awesome. It'll be our little secret, alright? So how are you doing, Aaron?" said Kamui.

"As you can already tell, I'm still sick," replied Aaron, "I hate being cooped up because of it. I want to go out and play with Trav and Jade."

"I don't blame you, Aaron. I was also sick too yesterday. I can tell you that it was no fun being sick with the flu. But the up side is that it doesn't last forever. You'll be up before you know it!" said Kamui.
