"Come on Annie- you can tell me! I won't tell another soul; cross my starter and hope to stall! Is he a Pontiac?"
Anastasia felt like her front should be red-hot. "Well, he's a racer..."
The grin grew. "Now we're getting somewhere! And does this guy know that you like him?"
A shrug. "Maybe... I don't really know..."

Chick grinned sheepishly as he parked beside Edward by the shelf, and said Toyota started to tremble. He wanted to back away and avoid being the subject of further gossip fodder...but he also wanted to stick around and hear if Annie really was talking about him.

"In other words, you haven't told him yet." Stacey stopped and pulled around to face her cousin, giving her a nudge. "You should tell him!"
"Well, we're friends," she explained, stopping as well. "But..."
"But...?" she echoed, digging for more information.
A pause before she sighed. "I'm just worried that... If I do tell him; what if he doesn't feel the same way? What if he just wants to stay friends? It'd be so awkward between us, it'd strain the friendship."

'I didn't even know we were in lo-" Eddie muttered softly and quickly before realizing that Chick was right next to him again...and that muttering caused Chick to lean in, his sheepish grin turning downright sadistic. Eddie, in turn, started to bead sweat.

"Besides, what if I do tell him... and it doesn't work out? His parents hate me already; I couldn't do that to him..."
"But what if it does?" Stacey asked. "I wasn't sure if I should have told Josh, but I did... we dated for a while, then he up and asked me to marry him. Few years later, Tommy came along." The slightly older Pontiac let her gaze move to her son on her cousin's hood and smiled. "I've never regretted telling him. Not once."

"Look...kid...I think I know what you can do..." Chick muttered toward Eddie, sounding rather sly. And eerily enough, Eddie leaned back to listen as Chick began to whisper some rather...interesting things...to him.

"I don't know..."
A good-natured smile. "Just consider it, okay? Something could happen to one of you and you'll regret it if you don't."
Anastasia hesitated. "Well... I'll think about it."
"That's all I'm asking," came the response as Stacey backed up to resume their drive towards the UltraShine pit. "You know, you still haven't told me if he's cute."
Annie couldn't help but to giggle a bit at her cousin. "Yes, he's cute. Happy now?"

Somewhere in a seedy hotel room, a sleek, black Toyota Supra sat watching the TV, which had just aired the conference at the stadium. He was able to recognize those that he had met before, including Sapphire, Ebony, Kamui, the Weathers, Tex, but there were others that he didn't recognize. Like that German racer, as well as NitroAde and UltraShine.
But, somehow, he believed that his plan was going to work out if he played his cards right. He would get back at them all. He would make them pay for his humiliation and threats to his life.
Tony Blitz will kill Sapphire Sky, that racer who had been his bane for many years already.
~~~~~
Ebony promised Strip that she would get in contact with those tuners that she knew that she could trust in Nitropolis and then went on her way, searching for her brother, Boost, and Phoenix. She wanted to see what they had been up to lately.

Moira accepted the printouts and looked them over, showing an appropriate level of disgust. "This man definitely needs treatment." she declared, though in her unspoken opinion, the best option would be "lead therapy".
"What's it say, Mom?" Leroy bounced up, trying to get a view of what she was reading.
Moira held the papers to her hood. "Nothing for your eyes to see." It was not easy bringing up a son on one's own. Her mate had been killed in action three years ago.
Strip waved to Ebony as she left, then turned his attention back to Sapphire.

"He was in a high-security prison last time I heard," said Sapphire, her own voice disgusted, "Chrysler knows how he got out. Probably charmed the guards. He's a liar and a thief."
~~~~~
Ebony found Phoenix and Boost, telling them about her plans for the camp, and then letting them know what she what she wanted to before the race starts.
Then she was off to look for Slaytor...

Slaytor perked up as he saw Ebony coming. "What's up?"
"If so, there should be information online about him." Moira answered. "Reports of escapes. It's unlikely they would have paroled him this early."

Ebony came up and nuzzled him affectionately, "Hey, wanna come over to that little corner cafe with me? I got Sally watching the twins so it'll be just you and me."
~~~~~
"Yeah," nodded Sapphire, "I just so happen to have an Internet connection in my trailer. There would be tons of information about him, including what he had done in Radiator Springs."

"Sure." Slaytor grinned. "Always ready for some of that."
"I hope the track security has also been alerted." Moira surveyed her surroundings. Lots of entries and exits to cover...

"Then c'mon, I'll show you where it is," Ebony nuzzled him again and passed him by, knowing that he will follow her wherever she went.
~~~~~
"That's what Dad told me," replied Sapphire, "Security's as tight as it could be."

"A slippery one like him might disguise himself or use someone else." Moira frowned.
Slaytor accompanied Ebony over to the cafe. "Looks nice."
