"Hope that isn't him there now." Mike frowned. "Maseratis are notorious for having egos and holding grudges. When you hear it from the patriarch of Nissan himself, you tend to take it seriously."
Kendall eyed the Maserati's distinct "boomerang" taillights as he drove away. "That tends to stand out in a crowd."
Boost looked back at his sister. "There was this mobbed-up guy who was active in the street racing scene in the northeast some years back. Maserati. Suppose we're all talking about the same guy?"

"Who would this be?" asked Ricardo, concerned about the safety of his daughters.
Ebony looked at Ricardo and Phoenix, wanting to include them in the discussion. She turned back to her brother and the others, "Well, probably. I think he had a lightning antenna-whip of some sort and could do almost what Nix can do. What do you recall about him, Bro?"

"He was a really brutal racer. Nothing was beyond him." Boost recalled. "His name was Cesare Lancione, and he always travelled around with at least two goons, if not a full entourage."
"I'm glad I never met him." Shrike made a face.
"And that antenna of his doesn't just shock, but it cuts and burns as well." Boost warned, "The top is all these little filaments. I've seen what it can do to another car."
Ondine and Mike went silent at the thought. The Skyline then pursed his lips. "Doesn't scare me. I've lived through worse."
"Me neither." Kendall concurred with a vehement nod. "If he comes looking for trouble, he'll find more than he can handle." He edged closer to Ebony and Artemis in a protective fashion.

"Nasty," Ricardo made a face and edged closer to his wife and two daughters, "He's not going to have a chance to hurt my family."
"I wish you guys wouldn't do that," Ebony said, glancing at Kendall and Mike, "A car would be a fool to not be afraid of something like that." She put her tire protectively beside her daughter. Then she blinked for a moment, "Oh, geez, hold on. Did you say his name was Cesare Lancione? If he is, than he's must be the same guy I raced and had beaten a long time ago. He must still be sore over that."

"Yeah, he's definitely the vindictive type." Boost kept looking up the street where the Maserati had disappeared. "And he couldn't take losing to a woman."

"Which happens to be me," Ebony said, then gave a sigh, "Great. I bet he's gotta grudge against me now. How come trouble always manages to find me?" She looked at the others, "Don't joke. This is serious."
"Hey, doesn't he know that there's a couple of users around here?" asked Ricardo, "My wife among them?"

"Maybe he's one of those guys who never really believes that stuff can have an effect on him until it actually happens." Mike snorted.
Kendall turned back to Ebony. "Maybe we should let Jay and Edith know. Lancione hasn't actually done anything here yet, but they might appreciate knowing, and see if there are any outstanding warrants on him."

"Probably a good idea," said Ebony.
"I think so too, Amigo," added Ricardo, "I don't want to see the children, especially the younger ones, get hurt."
The Stealth snugged his twin daughters.
"But," Ebony added, "If he has it out for me, than you'd better let me handle him, okay? I just don't wanna stand by and do nothing. You all know how I am with guilt."

"We do, Sis." Boost smiled ruefully. "But we'll back you up all the way, and the other DRH guys will look out for him too."
"In the meantime, what can we do for security?" Kendall mulled.

Ebony shifted on her tires, "Yeah, thanks..."
She fell silent for a moment, "Security? Could something be done with magic?" asked Ebony, looking at Phoenix, "Like something to let you know where Cesare is at all times?"
"What do you think?" Ricardo asked the Trans Am, giving her a little nudge.

"I can put a tracking spell on him easy enough," Phoenix said as she stroked Lynx's roof. "That will let me know where ever he is."

"That'll work," Ebony said with a smirk, "and that'll help me be ready for him if he decides to confront me."

"He doesn't know what he's in for." Kendall chortled.
"Wherever he goes, every tuner in town will know." Boost promised.

"Well, like I said," Ebony said, "If he has a grudge with me, let me deal with him first. You guys can finish off what's left of him when I'm through with him."

Phoenix nodded and looked at where the Maserati had disappeared down. "At least tracking spells can be cast at a distance..." she said as she reached out and sensing where the Maserati had gone.
"Give me a few moments..." she said as she concentrated.
