"I'm holding up so far," Phoenix replied, "although I might have to have my suspension tightened. I was a little loose out there."
"What about your timing belt?" asked Boost.
"I might need to get that looked at soon, but so far, it hasn't given me any problems," said Phoenix.
"That's good," sighed the purple Viper, "because I just want you to be safe."
"Don't worry," Phoenix touched him lightly, "I can take care of myself."
Phoenix then turned to Ebony, "So, Ebs. What plans do you have?"
"I was thinking of following you and Sapphire throughout the entire racing season," replied Ebony, shifting in her harness, "I just don't feel like deserting my best friend because of what had almost happened to me."
Phoenix knew what this was. The collapse of the warehouse on top of her still bothered Ebony, as the stocker Trans Am could tell in her best friend's features.
"Hey, you're going to be okay," Phoenix assured her best friend, "Me and Boost and everyone else who knows you will not let you deal with this alone, alright?"
Emerald green eyes met ice blue ones. "Thanks, Nix," Ebony smiled, "I appreciate it."
It was then that Ebony's pager went off. She checked and saw that it was Ondine, so she dialed up the Bricklin.

"Still itchy and burns a bit. I've gone as far as to try a bit of a weird concotion of Rust-eeze and herbs on it and it still didn't work. And the more I poke at it, the more it spreads. It's gtting a bit tricky to ignore. I think I'll manage, but it's going to be tricky," said Kamui.

Ondine's cell went off with a distinctive tone, and she knew who that was. "Hello, Ebony. Just got a free moment here and I thought I'd check in."
"Hmmm..." Veronica studied the tatoo more closely. "Maybe I could try something. No guarantees, but it's going to be hell trying to race with that bothering you."

"I'm alright," there was a bit of uncertainty in Ebony's answer, "I'm just down here in the pits with Phoenix."

"So what are you doing afterwards?" Ondine asked. "I was thinking we could go get something from the cafe on site - IF I can get these VIPs settled in time."

"Well... whatever you have in mind would rock, thanks. Uh... what is it?" said Kamui.

"There's this restuarant that caters to tuners that Boost and I found while cruising the city," said Ebony, "Real nice place and reasonable prices. Oh, and I found a park too."

"It's a deadening spell, but I can't go too heavy with it or it'll make you too numb to move." Veronica answered.
"OK, that could be a plan." Ondine agreed. "Hope they don't object to Bricklins."

"They'll accept you no matter what you are. No judgements whatsoever and they treat everyone there as equals," replied Ebony, "and besides, I feel very comfortable taking the twins there too."

"Well.... right now, any form of releaf would do! If you could do that for me, I'd appreciate that, Vee," said Kamui.
She paused to look over her tattoo with a sigh.
"I jsut wish I understood what it all meant..." Kamui muttered.

Veronica concentrated for a minute, probing at the dragon-spell and yelping when it "bit back." "Nasty little bugger, aren't you? Well, you'll have to ease up on Kamui if she's to race this weekend." She assembled a thought-form and breathed it out gently. "Calm down, now."
"Glad to hear," Ondine answered. "Tex and the Weathers might even come along."

"Sure they can come too," answered Ebony, a little distractedly, "I know where it is so no getting lost."

Ondine sensed Ebony's distractedness. "OK, I'll leave you alone now. I'll check in later. Bye for now."

"Okay, Bye," Ebony said, then hung up her cell. She turned to Phoenix and Boost. "That was Ondine," she explained, "She just wanted to check up on me."

Barnes looked rather edgy as he parked in his designated spot and opened up the back of the trailer to let Glimmer out. He imagined liquid-nitrogen smoke pouring out of the trailer as Glimmer rolled down the ramp like Carth Vader.
"You...gonna be okay out there?" "Yes." was Glimmer's very monotone reply. "Okay...uh...good luck!" Barnes stuttered as Glimmer passed him to head to the pits. "There's no such thing as luck. Just influences you can and can't control," #57 replied.
The first person Glimmer decided to seek out before meeting the Chief and his Swarm was none other than a person he now mentally declared his arch-rival.
