Luke turned his scarred side away from Meredith nodding a silent 'thank you' to Ebony. He didn't want her to know exactly what had happened just yet. "Its noth..."
He stopped as John burst into the room. "What the..." He hoped that it was another 'scrapheap' other than him.
(((And I'm working the morning but I should be back around the early evening, puppet please.)))

As John burst through the front door of the video store - and almost breaking it down in the process - Ebony turned around and left the backroom to see what was going on. It didn't take long for her to figure out who he meant and it chilled her very frame.
"Hichiro," Ebony growled, "I thought I'd seen the last of him."

"Hichiro? Who's this?" Sara asked.

John waited until he caught his breath before going on.
"Apparently, he's already beginning to wreak havoc over in Japan, and it looks he isn't beyond murdering innocent people. I'd say he's gone insane, and there can't be too many things more dangerous than an insane demon." He said. "I wonder if he's going to think of coming after us."
The SL500 then turned towards Sara.
"Hichiro Datsun...he's a Japanese assassin who tried to kill Ebony and injured Boost around the time we first met six years ago. He disappeared after we botched his attack with the help of a man named Zed and his crew." He explained. "Did I mention that he's also demonic?"

"I don't know," replied Ebony, "but you already mentioned that he's demonic. I do recall the prophesy. It mentioned that one of my offspring has The Gift." Her eyeshades widened, "Chrysler, Maven's the magic-sensitive one. What if he finds out about her and goes after her?"

"Oh, we're quite the trouble-magnets, aren't we?" Sara rolled her eyes. "Well, he's not going to find us easy targets."

"We have magic-users here," said Ebony, calming a little, "They should know about this."

"Not just the magic users..." John added. "...we should tell everyone in town to be wary of a black Nissan Silvia with a red stripe running in between his wheel-arches. It may cause a bit of panic, but with this guy, we can't take any risks."
He then looked at Ebony.
"Maven's a magic-user? Woah, I would've never expected that." He said, before chuckling a bit. "I still remember how you acted like you didn't want kids and weren't going to have any. Time really changes us, doesn't it?"

"Time really does change," nodded Ebony, "Back then I was still young and naive, not really caring about the future. Thought I didn't have one... until I came to this small town and everything changed for me. I discovered lots of things that I didn't know about myself, including the fact that I had been in term with twins."
She paused, "I was told that one of my children was magic-sensitive and about a year later at Bristol, Tennessee during the racing season I found out that it was Maven. At that time, another demon was stalking her and I had her get some spiritual and magical protection. Maven and her brother are both five years older now and should start their education soon. And I would like to have Maven specially schooled in the arts of magic. We have four powerful magic-users in this town. But news will travel fast in this town. Everyone will know about Hichiro."

"I'll make sure of that." Sara nodded.

"We both used to be in the same boat." John replied. "I was wasting my life trying to satisfy a bunch of childish urges...I never thought I'd ever look my father in the eyes again, much less take the helm of his company. Good to see that both of us have managed to find a better path in life...it could have ended much worse. The way I was going, it was only a matter of time before some cop found me half-dead with a blown engine in some dark alleyway."
John paused to let his last words sink in.
"Anyway, I'll be following the radio, and I'll make sure to inform you if I hear anything more regarding Hichiro."

"Thanks, Sara," Ebony nodded, smiling at the 'Bird woman, "Oh, and if you happen to find Slaytor and the twins tell them too. They need to know."
She turned to John, "Okay, you do that, John. And I think it was that chance meeting in Vegas that started us on the better path to better our lives."

"They'll be the first to know if I find them." Sara nodded, going out the door.
Kiran booked a room and looked it over. It was clean and comfortable, and that was all she really wanted. She dropped off a few things in it and, feeling a little dusty, went to see if there was a wash place in town. She found a detailing place run by a purple-painted Daytona Charger woman, and they had a wash stall available. A bit of freshening up would do her good...

"They don't go far," Ebony called, "They're probably at the Butte or at the park. That's where the twins usually like to go."

Sara only had to follow the noise to find Slaytor and the twins at the park. She waved Slaytor over...
