"I don't know if she's apologized yet," said Meredith, "but I think she's been feeling the guilt for awhile now, but just doesn't know how to express it properly."
~~~~~
Boost shrugged, "I thought that too. But, she has that happen of helping someone when she senses that they need help. I bet that's probably what she's been doing lately."
~~~~~
"Chase is Phoenix and Boost's son, and you know that Boost is my brother, so that makes me an aunt to Chase and a sister-in-law to Phoenix," said Ebony, "And I'd love to introduce you to Phoenix. She's actually very friendly once you get to know her better. Let's go."

"I can wait." Luke said stopping his scratching at the scars. "I'm in no hurry to leave."
~~~~~
"You think she is?" Phoenix said. "Wonder what she has him doing."

John nodded, and pulled into the diner. He approached Phoenix, Boost, and Chase.
"Hey." he casually greeted the couple.

"That would give her some time too," nodded Meredith, "I don't think it's a good idea to bother her right now anyway, since she's a little stressed by this demon."
~~~~~
"I have no idea," replied Boost.
He was distacted by the approach of Ebony and John. He recognized John as the one who had been with his sister when they encountered Hichiro six years back.
"Hey, haven't seen you in a while," Boost smiled at John, "How've you been since the last time we've met?"

"I take it she's ran into this demon before?" Luke asked.
~~~~~
Phoenix looked up as John came up and Boost greeted him casualy. "Hello," She said shifting the harness with Chase still in it."

"Been doing great actually. I see that you've settled down and started a family." John said, before turning to Phoenix. "Hello. I'm John Bachmann, an old friend of Ebony and Boost's."

"Yeah, but she doesn't like to talk about it too much," said Meredith, "but from what I've heard, the demon came after Ebony because she was carrying something that he wanted very badly."
~~~~~
Boost nodded affirmative, glad to hear how good John was doing. He settled back and looked on as John introduced himself to Phoenix.
Ebony took a stall not too far away so that she could listen in.

"Wonder what it wanted from her?" Luke said. "I think Bart's said that demons can be drawn to magic."
~~~~~
"Phoenix StreamLiner-Sanders, #47 on the circuit." Phoenix said with a nod, and gestured to her son in the harness. "And this is Chase, our son."

"I've already met Chase last night, not at a good time unfortunately." John said with a bit of anger. "It's sad to see that this town is being bothered by scrapheaps like the one we chased down last night. Seems like the world's full of'em."

"Yeah but we don't have to worry about him anymore," Phoenix said. "And I've never got the chance to thank you for your help getting Chase back for us."

"I think from what we've overheard in the video store that it was after one of her children," said Meredith, "and Ebony mentioned that Maven must've been the one with the magic abilities."

"It's no problem, I've been helping Boost since the day I've met him six years ago. No reason why I wouldn't do the same for his family." John said. "Hopefully, no one else will bother you the way they did yesterday."
He was lying, knowing full well that Hichiro's possible arrival at the town would affect everyone.

"So it wants to feed off her power and possible StreamLiner's kid possibly." Luke said.
~~~~~
"They'll be sorry if they do," Phoenix said. "After all 'Hell hath no fury like a StreamLiner scorned'."

"Yeah, it does," said Meredith, "It's attracted to young children, especially infants. And that isn't something that should happen."

"I think I saw what you did to Bart last night. I don't think anyone would want to be on the receiving end of that." John said. "Us Bachmanns don't have any exciting reputation like that. We're just honest businesscars."
