'Okay," Ebony chuckled when she saw one of the twins yawn, "I'd better get these guys squared away for their nap first before I go hunting for everyone's favorite Superbird. I hope you get better, Veronica. I'll talk to you guys later. Bye."
She waves at Buck, Kayleigh, Shale, and Veronica as she leaves.

"Well, I'm counting on everyone to do less angstin' and fightin' and more of what we all came here for." Tex waved an antenna towards the track. "So let's get down and do it!"
"Yes. You have a stalker problem." Moira sniffed disdainfully. "One who never knows when to quit, and is not as clever as he thinks he is."
Buck waved a rotor blade as Ebony left. "See you around, then."

"Yeah, that's about the gist of it," said Sapphire, "His name's Tony Blitz and I've known him quite well now. He has a one-track mind that seems to take over all else. Tony wants me dead."
~~~~~
Shale waved goodbye to Ebony with a rotorblade as she left as well.
~~~~~
Ebony picked her way back to the suite to get her twins settled in the corner so that they could take their nap. She asked Sally to look after them for a bit while she went to hunt down Strip, soon finding him at Sapphire's trailer. As she approached, she saw two new visitors at the trailer as well and slowed down. Who were they?

Leroy, whose attention was everywhere but where it was supposed to be, saw Ebony first, raising his eyeshades at the sleek black tuned Viper. "Whoah."
Moira nudged him. "That's not what you say to a person you're meeting for the first time, Leroy. Give her a proper greeting."
Leroy squared up. "Hello, ma'am."
Ondine was on the other side of the field, but waved at Ebony as she passed.
Returning her attention to Sapphire and her father, Moira continued. "Well, this sad and sorry little man is going to have to deal with me now."

Busy as ever, Ebony thinks as she waves back at Ondine.
Then she looks over at Leroy and smiles. "Hello."
"Thank you," Sapphire says to Moira, "Glad to have your help."
Ebony waits politely until she can get a chance to talk to Strip.

Strip twigged that Ebony wanted to talk to him in particular and edged over to her. "So what can I do for ya?"
"I'm glad to help." Moira smiled. "The Weathers are good friends of my father's."

"More like I can do something for you. It's about this camp of yours," said Ebony, "I know, for a fact, that there are quite a lot of trouble kids in Nitropolis, and the reason why most of them go tuner. I can spread the word to places, like Nitropolis, that I know that has them. I think that, with my influence and reputation in that world that these kids chose to live in, I can get some to come."
~~~~~
Sapphire nodded, "My dad told me a bit about you."

"You know, I was just thinkin' about askin' you." Strip nodded. "The foundation is lookin' at the possibility of settin' up a counseling center there, and kids who really need it could be referred to the camp from there."
"I'll stay with you, and keep a watch on your facilities." Moira said. She expertly and unconsciously snagged Leroy's rear with her antenna when it looked like he was about to go wandering off as she continued talking, not missing a beat. "Can you describe Mr. Blitz for me?"

"And I know a couple of good locations. It'll be like returning to an old home for me," said Ebony, "I can show you around sometime. There's a racetrack that's just been built there three years ago."
~~~~~
"Tony Blitz is a black Toyota Supra with golden eyes and menacing, disconcerting look. He is manipulative of others' feelings and twists peoples' thoughts to his own advantage," said Sapphire.

"I think we might be hitting that town soon." Strip nodded. "If you could put us in touch with some of the people in the tuner community, we'd appreciate that."
"Oh... that type." Moira looked as if she were trying to keep down something that tasted horrible. "I don't like it when people try to do that to me."

"I know a couple of good, trustworthy ones," said Ebony, "I'll talk to them and see what we can work out. Get a meeting going sometime soon."
~~~~~
"He did that to my sister, Amber, and I nearly got killed by him," Sapphire said with distaste, "He's one of those people that could be better off in a state penitentiary so that he won't do anymore harm."

"Sounds good to me." Strip nodded.
"So.." Moira nodded. "When was it that you started to hear from him again?"

"And if all goes well, this will all work out," said Ebony.
~~~~~
"When he sent me this rather... lewd email," Sapphire motioned for one of her pitties to bring up the printed out sheets of paper of the email, who handed it to Moira.

Richard nodded. Tex's enthusiasm was catching. "You have the full support of both my team and my company, Mr. Tex."
* * * *
While they waited for Richard to finish visiting with Tex, Anastasia and her cousin headed down to her pit. The toddler was back on Annie's hood, fascinated with all the bright colors. The two women were talking about something, but it didn't really interest him.
"So it's your second season and you can honestly tell me you don't have your eye on someone? Not even a racer?"
Annie felt herself blush a little bit. A certain Toyota was the first car that came to mind, but she wasn't going to willingly give that information up. At least not right now. "Well..."
The other Pontiac grinned. "Ah-hah! I knew it! So who is he? What's he like? Is he cute?" she probed, leaning against her cousin a bit to try to wheedle the information out of her.
Annie flailed a tire at her, feeling her blush grow. "Stacey, you're embarrassing!"

Eddie heard Annie's voice talking as he was lowered from the lift. He slowly made his way to the front but turned toward a shelf so it looked like he wasn't paying attention. Of course...he wouldn't be paying attention when...
"Ho-HO, Edward! Who've you got your eye on this time?" came a familiar smirk. Eddie turned around, his feeling sinking as a familiar boxy GNX came into view. "I hope you were just watching, because your qualifying's coming up. Don't want to end up getting distracted like that German guy does."
