[EDITED] I guess so... unless I stay here. It's nice here. I've never been able tuh sit at a gas station, have a couple cans of fuel, and talk wit' duh locals like I have here. D'ey usually kick me out, sayin' I ain't allowed in city limits. -BC laughed some, then took a big drink from the straw of his gas can.- Y'know... I don't know what's goin' on 'round here, but I'm willin' tuh do all I can tuh help. I know when somet'in' ain't right. Whatever it is... I'll do what I can.

He paused. Did he want to go back? Not really. He still felt like he should be angry at his mother for not telling him the truth.
"N-n-n-not really... She kept it from me f-f-for my whole life..."

"Hopefully we'll find out," Luke growled. "And then he'll leave."
~~~~~
Chase shot off after his cousin. "Yeah sure, I'll catch up," Kitt laughed as he followed after them.
~~~~~
Grayston blinked as he watched the Enzo leave so suddenly after telling him she wanted to talk.

"Well, stuff is not in my control at the moment." Adrian sighed, having the inkling that Jade would be seeking the same thing Grayston was. Maybe she even lied about not knowing what was in the vials. "But you may get a break in this as it progresses."

Well, I'll stick around. One t'ing my grandfawder asked-uh me was tuh find my supposed long-lost cousin. Personally, I don't t'ink I ever had a cousin... I t'ink dat old combine just gone senile. -BC laughed some.- I ain't seen any ot'er combines 'round since my herd ditched me, an' dat was 23 years ago.

"Don't be mad at her," replied Maven, "She only wanted to protect you and I think she really feels bad that she had kept it from you now."
~~~~~
Ebony watched Jade leave the diner and wondered what was going on. She had heard quite clearly that Jade wanted to talk to Grayston about something later on and thought that maybe she could follow and see what was going on. She sat at her stall sipping at her late lunch and just listened to the chatter at the diner.
~~~~~
"I wish he would go back to his cone for the rest of the day," replied Meredith, "I can tell that the children are obviously unsettled by his presence."
~~~~~
Sapphire, along with Kitt, followed the two all the way back to the diner.

"You should ask the others, I'm not one of the locals." Adrian said, switching to her British accent. "I know how to speak local." She said.

Dat's purty impressive... I can't mimic any accent to save m'header. -He finished off his lunch.- So... how'd you end up here? You come a long way if you're from Britain. -BC could recognize accents, and where they came from. He'd been around awhile.-

"Espciealy Sheila," Luke grumbled as Sheila burrowed into her Phoenix's side. "He's got her terrified."
~~~~~
Chase skidded to a stop near the diner and dashed to his parents.
Grayston shifted grumbling something about wild kids and pulled out of his stall and gave a passing Kitt a smug look.

"I'm looking for the one who taught me how to speak with American accent." Adrian said, noticing Grayston leaving, finally. "I need a rest from today's action." She said, driving to her cone. "Ask the others if they know about this uncle of yours."

"But... How c-c-could she keep something like th-that from me?!" He was clearly getting upset again. "I mean... my d-dad was a demon! She th-thinks I didn't inherit any of the demon, but I did!..." Fluid was building up in his eyes again. It was bad enough he had never met his father- but to know something like this...

Alright, t'anks, Miss. -BC hadn't caught Adrian's name. He looked around to the others that were there at the diner. Some were leaving, but some had just arrived. He looked to the group of cars, looking down the rows of stalls. He didn't ask anybody in particular, but made a general question to the crowd:- You ain't seen anybody dat looks kind-uh like me 'round here, have any of yah?

(((((OOC: Can Ebony have a confrontation with Grayston? So far, she's being ignored...)))))
"Someone has to bring his ego down a notch," said Meredith, then noticing the black Viper in another stall watching the old Ford like a predator, "And it looks like Ebony over there is already ready to do it."
Ceri took a stall with her parents.
Boost was relieved when Grayston left and sighed. He had been so tensed up that he didn't realize how unfriendly he seemed to everyone else.
~~~~~
"I think she just didn't know," replied Maven, "and didn't know how to tell you. I felt the same way when my mom didn't tell me about her encounters with your father. Yes, I was angry and upset at her, but I let her explain herself to me, then I understood. You should let your mother do that too."

((By all means, let her.)))
"Oh maybe she'll spike him again," Luke smirked.
Phoenix gently nuzzled Sheila as Chase pulled next to Boost. "Dad, you okay."
"Finally," Kitt said. "I thought that ol' bag of wind was never going to leave."

"Who knows what's Ebony thinking of doing to him," said Meredith as she watched the Viper pull out of the stall to follow Grayston.
~~~~~
Boost looked down at his son, "Yeah, I'm okay."
~~~~~
"He's not making it easy for any of us," observed Sapphire.
