"I did," Phoenix said. "But it looked to me there was a three-way tie with Mr Lee and Lyle and her."

"So that means that they get to race each other again sometime later," said Boost.

"I guess so," Phoenix said. "They'll probably have a day or so before the rally is over."

"Yeah, that gives them time to prepare," nodded Boost.

"And let them finish up the other events as well," Phoenix said.

"How about we go back to town for a bit?" said Boost, "and find Ebs so that we can tell her what happened at the Butte."

"Lets go," Phoenix said. "She'll love to hear about it."

<<< Back to Rory for a bit >>>
Rory's grandfather waited with him in line. "I don't know why you decided to do this," the old man groused, "But it's your call."
The eleven-year-old advanced to the registration desk. "I don't care what the judges think of me, I'm just gonna be myself. Different from all those robots."
Sybil waited for Vince. Snot Rod had been good enough to put off his own race to see this rematch, and it appeared that he was also looking forward to this.

Boost and Phoenix, with the twins in tow, headed back to town so that they could find Ebony and tell her what happened with Vince at the Butte, but it appeared that Ebony was still working the security shift.
~~~~~
Ebony was still... patrolling. She was on the backroads now, but she was looking quite weary. If she kept this up, she would definately collapse from exhaustion.

Darcy took a break from her mural and decided to take a drive out on the back roads with Johnny. They checked in with the docent and took off for what they figured would be a half-hour drive. They came up to pass Ebony and noted that she looked a little peaked. "Ebony!" Darcy called out.

The sun was beating down on her black paint, making it a bit difficult to cope in such warm weather. Ebony did, indeed, look a little peaked as she drove. She stopped and blinked as Darcy called out to her.
"What? Oh, hi guys," she greeted as she saw Darcy and Johnny.

Darcy did not mince words. "Ebony, you look like you're suffering out here. You'd better ease up before you collapse." It was not for nothing that Darcy had opted for a white paint job when she was first out here a few years back.

"I know," said Ebony, "but it feels like it's my responsibility for the town's safety. And I need to keep an eye on Vince, just in case he tries something."

"Vince is at the drag strip now," Darcy told her. "They pulled a switch and put him up against Sybil Gamilan again."
"He didn't look too happy when he saw him." Johnny chortled.

Ebony breathed a sigh of relief, "Well, that's good and it makes my job easier. I think Sybil wanted a rematch with him since she spun out the last time she was up against him."
