"See ya in a bit," Phoenix said pulling out of the shop and heading for the diner.

Rafey leaned in a bit as if to nuzzle, in a consoling way. "It's okay...it's hard to believe that sort of thing happened to him..." This despite the fact that he didn't know everything about what happened then.

"Junior's growing up so fast," she told him. "He's five years old, and started asking about his daddy already. I try to answer his questions the best I can, but it's hard... He looks so much like his father." She pulled out some pictures- she always had these with her wherever she went. One was a baby picture of him learning how to roll forwards, another of his four year old self trying- and failing comically- to wear David's headset. Then there was one of when he was just a newborn with his mom, her hood tear streaked as she looked down at the little bundle beside her. Then another one of the toddler sitting on his uncle's hood in what appeared to be the entrance to victory lane of a race track.

Rafey tried to force a reassuring smile as he pulled up to a spot and invited her to sit down. He also looked at those photos, many of which he was not around to see personally, save for perhaps the last one. "Heh...I remember that one...Chick was pretty angry about that."

"Good to see that the old Jeep is still doing well. Maybe I should talk to him a bit." Cam said, then drove up to Sarge. They greeted each other and discussed Cam's Rally performance for a while, but soon they began talking about the old days of off-roading, when 4x4s had neither speed nor luxury, and had only their toughness to face the muscle and sports cars of the past.

Jasmine finished building a simple house-like shape out of the blocks, and pushed a few blocks towards Chase, to see what he could do.

"Woah, a talking Combine!" Elena said. "I mean, no offense, but I've always thought of them as being unintelligent and high-tempered."
"We're city folk." John added.

Finishing their lunch, Jade led the way to the back of her mother's closed-down shop. The spellbooks were kept inside and everyone was locked outside, but Jade knew of a way to get inside without breaking the lock.
Casting a simple unlocking spell, the two teens went inside after the door was magically opened and started looking around for the books.
~~~~~
Ebony finished with the preparations and closed up the video/book store. She pulled out onto the street and headed for her home on Duesenburg Street. Rolling into her backyard, Ebony started to set up the awning.
She wasn't aware yet that her lunch was going to interrupted very soon.

Chase took up the blocks and start to stack them into a tower.
~~~~~
Phoenix had pulled into the diner, waiting for their order. She told Boost what she and Ebony were doing.
When the order arrived. She balanced it on her hood and was on her way back to Ebony's backyard.

It was easy for Jade to find her mother's old spellbook, which was kept locked away in an ancient traveling trunk which had seen better years. Unfastening the clasps was easy and so was rummaging around inside was even easier.
She pulled out the book and started flipping through the old pages with care.
Indigo came up behind her. "Are you sure you want to do this?"
"It won't hurt anything and nobody's going to be much the wiser," replied Jade as she scanned each page of the spellbook, "We'll pop into the past, see what it was like, and pop back with no problem."
"Well... this was your idea and I'm just going along with it," said Indigo, "but I'll feel really bad if we accidentally screw up the timeline."
Jade scoffed, "We're not going to do that, okay Indi?"
Indigo blinked, but nodded in agreement anyway, knowing that his girlfriend was a magic-user, "Okay."
"Good," Jade turned back to the book, glancing down at the pages, "Ah-ha! Here it is! The Time-Transfer Spell. Ready?"
"Uh huh..." Indigo nodded weakly.
"Patefacio sursum porta of tractus quod vicis*," Jade's antenna crackled with energy as the spell was cast and began to take effect.
Suddenly, the whole room, along with both Ferraris, were surrounded by a blinding, white light. Unbeknownst to either of them is that the spellbook was dropped and had landed on the floor and opened up to the very page in which the time transfer spell was written on. But soon that page became blank.
(((((OOC: *Open up the gates of space and time ))))
~~~~~
Ebony had just finished setting up the awning was just about to pull in under it to wait for Phoenix when she was blinded by a bright, white light.
The last thought she had before she blacked out was, What's happening...? The twins... Are they okay...?

Phoenix stopped and turned around, something magical catching her attention "What..."
She never got to finish as the white light washed over her."

-BC started to reply:- That's how majority of us are. I don't know what happened to me. There's a reason I'm not with a herd... I mentally don't belo-- -And that's when BC blacked out.-

There was only silence for awhile before the two teens woke to find themselves in a completely different room. Nothing was the same as before and not only that, but their own appearance was different as well.
Jade and Indigo were not a 2002 Ferrari Enzo and a 1998 Ferrari F50, respectively, but had both become 1962 Ferrari 250 GTOs.
"What happened?" asked Indigo uncertainly.
"I think we're in the past," replied Jade, confused, "I don't recognize this room."
Indigo had driven forward a little bit when he passed an old, large mirror and saw what he looked like. "Hey, Jade," he called, "Come take a look at this."
Jade obliged and came over to see herself and Indigo in the mirror.
"We... look different," she observed, "but how can this be? I only cast a time transfer spell, not a transformation spell. Those are a little bit too advanced for me."
"I don't know," Indigo was beginning to get worried again, "Jade, if we're in the past and we look like we came from the 1960s, then let's get out of here before the current proprietor of this place finds us and kicks us out."
"Good idea," Jade nodded and led Indigo out of the building unnoticed by whoever currently owned the shop.
~~~~~
Emerald green eyes opened slowly and a low groan escaped the black Shelby Daytona Cobra Coupe's lips. She stared straight ahead of her as if in a daze and confused by the sight in front of her.
Her house, along with the others were gone and she was lying in an empty field with sparce grass.
Where am I? she thought as she slowly picked herself up on her tires, What happened?
Then she looked at herself to see if she was hurt in anyway by whatever had happened to her. That was when she noticed the difference of her appearance.
"What? I'm not a Viper anymore?" Ebony asked herself in disbelief, "How did I get like that? And what happened to all of my mods?"
Not getting an answer as she expected in an empty, open field, Ebony decided to go into town to see if she figure this out and find, at least somebody to tell her what was going on and where she ended up at.

Phoenix groaned a bit and shook her front as she came to. "What just hit me; a train," She grumbled looking around.
Last she knew she was on her way to Ebony's house. Next minute she's on a worn road. "What the... Where the heck am I?" She pulled the bag off her hood with her newly aquired antenna. "What am I..."
She was still a blue black, but looked no longer was modded for racing, and now looked much more boxier. "I look like Hick's girlfriend if he ever had one!"
She revved her engine angerly. "What four cylinders. You have 'got' to to kidding me!"

As she drove out the field, Ebony took a moment to look around at her surroundings. Things looked entirely different than from what she remembered them to be and it wasn't the same as before.
With her new appearance, she thought that she sorta looked like Neil Jaimeson a bit, what with the headlights. But her tuner mods were gone and she only had those long exhaust pipes lined up on her sides.
It was then that she heard an engine revv and an angry voice shouting. A very angry voice that sound quite familiar to her.
"Phoenix?" she called out apprehensively, "Is that you?"

Phoenix turned around. "Eb?" She called out reconizing the familiar voice. "You here!"

"Yeah," Ebony replied, "I'm here too. I've always been here. But what happened? The last thing I remember before blacking out is a bright light."
It was then that Ebony came into view. Her eyes widened a bit at the sight of seeing Phoenix.
"What happened to you?"
