"Oh," Ebony blinked. Then she noticed Phoenix backing up. "Nix?" she asked with concern, gliding over to the Trans Am, "Are you alright?"

"I had family..." Phoenix said. "I had family..."
Wilton slowly pulled forward, worry etched across his features. The Trans Am narrowed her eyes and growled at him warning him to stay back. "You didn't try to a thing to get me away from him."
"We didn't even know if you were the one. He kept you tucked away," Wilton said. "Made it impossible for us to know for sure."

Raine suddenly had an idea, one that would probably be against her father's approval, but she wanted to do something special for him. She rose up on her tires and whispered very quietly in Doc's mirror.
((Hehehe... she's asking for a tattoo XD))

"Nix," Ebony said, "Please. Listen to me. How can you expect him to know for sure? I didn't even expect to meet my mother in Radiator Springs, get a phone call from my father, and learn that Boost is my half-brother. I didn't know. This was something that was out of everyone's control."

Phoenix stopped growling but still glared at the GTO. "Just because you're my uncle, don't expect me to jump on the relative bandwagon. If you'll excuse me; I'm going to go check on Gryffin," she shifted roughly into gear and pulled out of the arena.
Wilton watched as the Trans Am retreat. "That went a lot better than I planned. I'm glad she doesn't react like her grandfather..." He shivered at the thought.
~~~~~~
Kitt had slowed to a stop to watch what was going on.

Ebony jumped at Phoenix's tone and watched her retreat. "I-I think..." she said, trying to calm her racing RPMs, "I-I don't know... I thought that... that she wanted to learn who her family was... Did I do something wrong...?"
*****
Sapphire slowed as well, looking upon the scene. "Something's got Phoenix upset."

"No you didn't," Wilton said. "Don't think she expected to find out that she had family living still with her parents dead. Probably thought that they were dead for not coming to get her."
~~~~~
"And there's Pop and Ebony there," Kitt said as he pulled off the track. "Want to check it out?"

"I thought mine were dead, too... but I-I was only trying to help..." Ebony looked down.
*****
"Yeah, I want to see what's going on," agreed Sapphire.

Kitt nodded and slowly pulled up. "Pop? Whats going on?"
"I know," Wilton said with a nod. "Thank you though. At least we know its her now at least." The older GTO turned as Kitt came up. "Nothing much just found our cousin."

Ebony nodded and backed up, "I think I'll head back to the center court now..." She only gave a silent nod to Sapphire and Kitt as they came up before turning away and heading out of the arena and back to the center court.
Sapphire blinked, with a Huh? expression on her front, "Cousin?"
*****
Going slow down the hallway, Ebony felt unsettled and a little upset. She was dreading coming into the center court now. The last time she had ever seen Phoenix like that was when she had directed misplaced anger toward her.
She approached the doors of the place and pushed through them, weaving deftly around some humans and making her way toward the suites.
*****
Doc blinked when he heard what Raine wanted, "Whatever for?"
He knew the responsibility of having a tatoo and that was from knowing Ramone, but he wondered why his daughter wanted one.
(((((OOC: And I'm about ready to call it a night soon... Going braindead here...)))))

Raine smiled sheepishly, "Well, just think of it as something special for you... but kinda a surprise."

Wilton nodded. "She is."
"She's Uncle Chase's kid," Kitt said, his eyeshades widening.
~~~~~
Instead of returning to the center court she followed the halls and to the crystal chamber, somewhere she hadn't been in months.
With a sigh she settled on the ground.
(((Same here, work tomorrow morning...)))

Doc thought for a moment, "It might be best to talk to Ramone. He knows about tatoos better than I do."
*****
"Whoa... I guess that was a little too much for her to take in, seeing as she stormed off like that," said Sapphire, nodding slowly as she learned this.
*****
Ebony got to her suite, but finding that Phoenix wasn't there, she knew that the Trans Am had gone elsewhere. The Viper didn't follow her scent, though, but went inside her suite to settled down next to Kestrel, Falcon, and Gryffin, cuddling them close to her.
She did, however, send out a pleading mental message, feeling the need to apologize, and trying not to cry, 'Nix? If you can hear this, please forgive me. I didn't mean to make you upset. It was my idea to go see StreamLiner. I was only trying to help.'
The Viper broke off contact, but still kept her mind open for a response.
(((((OOC: Alright, I have to go to sleep now... G'night...)))))

Raine smiled, "Thanks, Dad... I want to have something that reminds me of you." She sheepishly gave his fender a soft peck before getting back in the trailer after thanking Jessica.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Raine flicked her mirrors as she looked at the many shades of blue that were displayed in Ramone's body shop. She wanted to pick out a color that reminded her of her father in the tattoo, but she couldn't decide what would look good on her black paint. The young Mustang glanced back at her father while he watched her.

"And she got those talents from being tainted by a demon." Egill said unimpressed. Maybe Rodgers had not had so great sources or a good deal of unknown information. "Anything else?" Egill worked on his meal. If Rodgers would not get his attention, the folder already in the open was all that he would get.
