Grayston was about pulled into his cone and stopped. "Its not polite to follow someone."
~~~~~
"Is he bugging you that much Dad," Chase asked refering to the Ford.
~~~~~
"No," Kitt said. "And he conventily felt behind all that paperwork that you showed me."

He felt a bit of the anger burn itself out, but still had tears welling in his eyes. "I j-j-just... don't know what t-t-to do now... I'm half demon..."

"Nice try, Grayston," Ebony answered, "Don't pull that one on me. I'm not fooled one bit. Does the fact that I still don't like you or trust you give you any clues?"
~~~~~
Boost sighed, "Yeah, he's had me so tensed up for half the day."
~~~~~
Sapphire raised her eyeshades. "Oh? Now that's interesting."
~~~~~
"You can learn to control your demon half," suggested Maven, "I can help you with that."

"Why I haven't done a thing wrong Miss Ebony," Grayston said. "I'm just waiting for my deadline so I can start construction on my land."
~~~~~
"You don't like him either do you?" Chase asked. "Does Uncle Luke even like him?"
~~~~~
"He's either way to confident about how through they are or doesn't think we can find something," Kitt said "He's like watching a predator.

A pause, and he sniffed. "R-really?..."

(((((OOC: I'm so slow... XD)))))
Ebony took a whiff of his scent and knew that he wasn't tell her a half-truth. There was a second scent on him. One that was all-too-familiar to her. Now what was Grayston doing with Tony?
"Uh huh, so what were you doing out in the desert late last night?" asked Ebony.
~~~~~
"Not one bit," answered Boost, "And your Uncle Luke not only doesn't like him, but seems to have a lot of mistrust for him as well."
~~~~~
Maven nodded, "Yes. I will. Would you like to drive back to town with me?"

Edward hesitated.
"... Okay..."
He rolled towards her, still not quite sure what to think. He found it strange that she would just befriend him like this- especially considering what he was.

"Why I was just taking a night drive," Grayston said. "That is not against the law."
~~~~~
Chase looked at his uncle. "And why he didn't want Juni to know about him. I mean you and Mom told me about him."

Maven let EJ come up beside her. It didn't matter to her whether he was a demon or not. To her, he was just a boy looking for answers.
"Let's go see your mom, okay?" asked Maven, shifting into gear.
~~~~~
"That was not a smart thing to do alone," Ebony pointed out, "Tony Blitz was out there and he attacked me. He's very dangerous."
~~~~~
"He didn't want her to get hurt," answered Boost.

"Don't worry," Grayston said. "I have ways to protect myself besides my powers."
~~~~~
"Like what you and Mom do to me and Sheila when reporters ask about us?" Chase asked.

He nodded, blinking away his tears. The trip to Radiator Springs was supposed to be a vacation, but instead...
Well, he didn't know what to think of it.
He stayed near Maven as she led him back to town. At this point, all he wanted was to talk to his mother and get more answers. The problem was, she was still recovering and had trouble staying awake. Getting the entire story would take a while.
(Should go to bed now... Night y'all!)

"Oh, I'm not worried," replied Ebony, "It was just a warning. Hope that whatever you've got can take on a half-crazed Supra."
With that, Ebony drove away without so much as a goodbye and headed back to the diner.
~~~~~
"Yes, exactly," nodded Boost, "But I think we know you're old enough to understand what we're telling you."

"Again with the abbrut leaving," grumbled Grayston. "First the Enzo and now her, what is it with that."
~~~~~
"Mom says you tell us so we don't try to find out for yourselves," Chase nodded. "You always told us that reporters want to talk to us was because we are different."

Ebony had gone back to the diner only to tell Melody that she needed to go for a drive. After promising that she wouldn't go too far because of her condition, the Viper left on the Tailfin Pass Route.
Her senses were alert to the scents that were coming to her during that drive. She could identify each one of them and store them away in her memory for later recognizance.
When she got to the top where the Wheel Well was located, she stopped at the ledge and looked down at the town. She still thought that view was pretty. What she was also thinking about was that while she was speaking to Grayston, she could catch a bit of a hint in his voice that he was lying to her. She could easily tell a lie from the truth and could sense that there was something more to the reason of his visit.
I'll find out what it is soon, Ebony thought as she drove on, intending not to stay for too long, Nobody can keep secrets from me for too long.
Ebony headed for one of her favorite spot to be, the cave behind the waterfall. Even though it brought back a lot of bad memories for her, this was the most private place that she liked to be where nobody can either find her or disturb her.
She passed behind the falling water and into the cave, settling down on the cool stone floor with a sigh. At least I'll be at peace for awhile. I don't need any stress that's in town right now.

Jade had gone back to her shop to check on her son, who was thankfully sleeping and that Indigo was taking care of him for her while she was busy with other duties. It would be around evening that she would meet up with Grayston at the Butte and she wanted to be prepared for the encounter that she knew would take place in the Innerscape.
~~~~~
Maven led the way back to the clinic where Anastasia was...
~~~~~
"Reporters are like parasites," answered Boost, "When they see something different they latch onto it in hopes of getting a juicy story to publish in the papers. This is why you mother and I want you to stay away from them."

Grayston pulled into his cone. He pulled out a couple of vials from his compartment, not wanting to risk getting them found out.
~~~~~
"And I don't want it either yet,," Chase said. "But Mom says you get attention like that if you race. And that girl Adrian did say that I could probably rally-race. That might be cool."
