Ebony tried to go back into her memories, trying to remember who this familiar scent belonged to. She could recall a black Ford Taurus stocker who raced in the Piston Cup as the #28 with Nitroade as his sponsor. There was a name that went to that face. Jolsten was it?
She was brought out of her thoughts when Adrian spoke to her, mentioning that very name. "Jolsten? I haven't seen him since he announced his retirement." Ebony sniffed at the scent again, "Sorry if I'm intruding, but are you, by any chance, related to him?"
~~~~~
Maven nods, "You're welcome. I'll ask her later today during our session."
~~~~~
Juni brightened a bit, "Kay, Mom, Kay, Dad." She came back and settled between her parents, nuzzling them both.
~~~~~
An emerald green Ferrari Enzo puttered about her magic shop, straightening this and cleaning that. Her sides were swelling as her term advanced and she was half-slowing down because of it. But Jade was not bothered by her condition at all. She knew that she could function just as well even if she were becoming heavy with the baby that she was carrying and that her husband, Indigo, would always be there for her.
She would still be teaching budding magic-users until she would go into labor.

"I'm his daughter. Adrian." She replied. "You must be Ebony. He talked about you." She was bit surprised that the topic of her father didnt drift directly to this disappearance a year ago, but she took it as a sure sign she was talking to the right person.

"Great," Chase said. "And I think Juni and her folks are on their way.
~~~~~
Luke chuckled at his daughter as they made their way to they made their way to the diner.

"He looked after the twins for me once while I had a Girls Night Out," replied Ebony, "and, yes, I'm Ebony. Pleased to meet you, Adrian. So how is your father doing these days?"
~~~~~
As she and her parents pulled into the diner and took stalls, the little Skyline/Corvette mix zipped over to Chase and the twins.
"Hiya, whatcha doing?" she asked, bouncing a little bit.
~~~~~
Jade paused when she felt kicking. 'Now cut that out. You'll get to be out of there when it's time.' she thought-spoke to the child within her.

"He disappeared abour a year ago. No trace left of him." Adrian said, resting on her tires. "And since you hadn't even heard about it, I guess I have driven into yet another dead end."

"Nothing," Chase said. "We're just talking about Miss Jade and ask her to show me a spell."
~~~~~
Luke settled down in a stall not to far from where his cousin and her husband we talking with Ebony who was talking to a teen.

"What? He disappeared? How did he disappear?" asked Ebony.
~~~~~
"Miss Jade's gonna have a baby soon," said Juni, "Did you notice how big she's getting? And Indigo's as protective as ever."
"Well, that wouldn't stop her from giving magic lessons, now would it?" asked Maven.
~~~~~
"Are you okay?" Meredith asked Luke.

"The Last time he was seen, it was in London. There is a rally track near Cardiff where mom was racing, and I was with her." Adrian said. "He was going to meet us there, but he never came."

"She'll only stop when she has the baby," Chase said. "She'll never stop wanting to teach us. Besides her, its just my mom."
~~~~~
"Scars are a little stiff today," Luke said. "And there's a new girl in town."

"London. That's a pretty long way off from here," said Ebony, "But I'm willing to bet he might be anywhere by now, even around here somewhere." Chrysler, I hope he doesn't have amnesia like I had once.
"But I don't understand it," said Ebony, "Why would he go missing? That's not really like him to do something like that."
~~~~~
"I think we should at least stop by to see how she's doing," suggested Maven, "I just wonder if the baby's going to be as magic-sensative as she is."
~~~~~
Meredith nudged him gently. She looked toward the newcomer. "Oh, so there is. I wonder who she is."

"Who knows. She'll probably know when its born," Chase said. "I'm the only one in my family besides my mom. But I think seeing is a great idea."
~~~~~
"She's some racer's daughter I think," Luke said. "Apparently her old man knows Ebony."

"I don't get it either. I have been hunting down leads for half a year now. Next checkpoint would be Canada, try to find the Shooter clan and talk to Exan."

"If Kamui isn't too busy with track practice," said Ebony, "Or with her family, than she might be able to help. But it wouldn't hurt to look around here. There's plenty of places to check out."
~~~~~
"Alright, let's go visit Jade," said Krill, shifting into gear. Maven did the same.
~~~~~
Meredith thought for a moment, "I seem to recall Ebony telling me that she met a car named Jolsten who was a Piston Cup racer."

"Sorry Ebony, but I am not that interested in playing a tourist." Adrian said. "Good thing my dad taught me how to talk with American accent, makes things little bit easier for me. Ebony, I got to ask you, was all that about demons, and expecially Egill, true?"

Chase shifted into gear, following after his older cousins.
Logan looked from where he sat and saw his brother on the move. He moved to follow after him, but was blocked by Phoenix's tire.
~~~~~
"Name sounds familiar," Luke said. "Didn't he retire?"
