Glimmer was about as panicked as he was furious. He stormed into the nearby control tower and viewed the cameras. Sure enough, El Bandito was right behind him, although never in a spot where he could see.
"This can't be...you're lying. This is just a dream! You can't just shut off your engine like that while going full speed, even if you went to cruise at neutral!"

"Yer roight.... I kin not.... but I kin do sumthin' elze. Let'z juz't say dat whot I did, da livin' kin do it too. Actualleh, Kamui did da sam'e tri'k too on yeh. Do yer resear'ch, lad. Dat waz me signatu'r mov' - Da Shad'w Sweep'r. But I be not tellin' yeh 'ow it waz dunn, lad," said El Bandito.
(OOC: Kamui did do it to Glimmer once before. She did it in the street race when she shot passed him. Although, it wasn't as masterful as what El Bandito did just now.)

"Gottlieb...it's true..." Glimmer was also as shocked-depressed as he was when Kamui used it on him. "I can't believe I fell for it twice...so stupid..."

"Don't think I never used strategy on my own back in DTM. I guess the only reason I can't race well here is because I'm still trying to adapt to the American style. You should watch the race footage from DTM when you get the time, you could learn a few things yourself..." Glimmer was seriously trying to make excuses...

Glimmer sighed. "No...it's just a dream. It really is. I read the tactics of my competitors back in Europe and played them accordingly. Hell, I even LET some of them win in a few races just to "level" the playing field, though I didn't do it by forcing a stall or slowdown or even an accident."

El Bandito raised an eyebrow.
"Are yeh sur', lad? Er are yeh inventin' 'xucsez? 'Xcusez onleh werk in da mom'nt; Dey dun' brin' rezultz in da lon' run. An' I be thinkin' yeh want rezultz, lad," said El Bandito.

Glimmer sighed. "I don't know if they are anymore. I just don't want to be a loser, that's all." He definitely felt he could be a lot more open with his feelings in the dream world, though he expressed doubts in trusting El Bandito with them, knowing his connections with Kamui...

Glimmer felt he had no other choice at the moment. "Of course...of course." He figured, of course, that it would work to his success eventually, so right now any weapon he could use would be worth it.

"Mkay.... az ov now, yer me stud'nt. Yeh do whot I be tellin' yeh an' yeh will succeed. But yeh MU'ZT do EV'REH thin', got it?" said El Bandito.
(OOC: I sorta see a similar Master-student relationship that Hikaru and Sai has in Hikaru No Go... ^^;; )

"Certainly," Glimmer agreed. In time, the student will overwhelm the teacher...
((I just realized...if what Glimmer's literally saying in his dream are his thoughts, then El Bandito's mind-reading would be negated as Glimmer's "thoughts" in his dream would actually be his sub-subconscious?))

(OOC: I guess something like that. ^^;; )
El Bandito sighed.
"I 'eard dat las't bit an' yeh 'ave ta do ah LOT ta ev'n com' close ta dat," said El Bandito rolling his eyes.
