Chakée had a look on his right side using his side mirrors. Ehww... that will need some work, to look as good as the other side again. There seemed to be scratches with remains of the Silvias varnish on him too. ... why does this odd and bad feeling get stronger... Chakée sighed, closed his eyes and tries to get rid of that bad feeling by shaking his front.

((Really sorry for killing this RP, but just when I thought school had left me alone, I just got hit by more work. I hope it's not too late to bring it back to life.))
"<The information contained in the inscription is most distressing...and much more direct than any prophecy I have seen before.>" Takagi said as he pulled out a computer printout, containing a photograph of an old paper scroll with more modern-looking Japanese text under it. "<Just see for yourself.>"
He paused, and began reading from the printout.
"<Under the command of an oppressive mortal lord, the Earth Demon will wreak bloodshed on his homeland for many years. Finally, fate will take him to a City of Sin, where he will attempt to slay the Black Serpent. In a decisive moment, the Earth Demon will be intoxicated by the Gift that is possessed by the young Serpent's unborn offspring, and thus allow himself to be defeated by the Serpent's defenders. He will then descend into a six-year slumber, after which...>"
Takagi ran out of breath, and hesitated as he reached the final line of the legend.
Hichiro's expression had turned from anxious curiousity, to shock, and now seemed to be on the verge of fear and panic.

Tango finally felt the powers. She was fully alert to them and knew where the stemed from. She had tried to get Nuke help, but he was still reluctant to work with her. Maybe for his sake right now staying hidden would be better off.
"Hey Nuke, friend... something very not good is up... I gotta' go investigate. But since you don't want to hideout inside or really leave your hidding spot here, I've got some homework for you." Tango says pulling out a big book.
"I want you to read this comic book. If you can't read look at the pictures... It's the story and adventures of superhero's. I think you'll make a good superhero one day." She smiles at him.
"If you can't read, just look at the pictures. If you have to Leave here then take it with you... I catch up with ya later."She heads out towards the demons power.
She's coming... are you guys sure? I better get moving then.

Ebony translated for John, but paused when she heard the words 'unborn offspring' and 'Black Serpent' in the same sentence. It took awhile, but she put two and two together and realized something.
"My what? But I'm not even in term," said Ebony, "Nor will I ever be. I don't even want children. So why does this have to do with me?"

Tango was hoping that Nuke would either stay there and read, or be curios enough to follow her...

Nuke eyed the book tango had left for him... He knew how to read but didn't want too read he had already rotted his brain out with the local news papers he had come across to make a place to sleep... he packed the book away in an side compartment and headed after tango... as little as he wanted to be seen by the locals he didn't want to be left alone either....

Tango was glad that this got him out. Sometimes easy coaxing dosen't work so you gotta' make them make themselves come out. She continued on to the point of the demonic power. "You're coming then?" She smiles at Nuke.

"yeah" he nodded looking around at the buildings they passed... "where is it that we are going?"

Slaytor glanced over at Ebony as Zed translates. "black serpent?"
Robb taps Slaytor on the fender, "Viper."
Slaytor tilts and nods, "Oh." He gives Ebony a smile. "I would have done it anyway. Momma raised me right."
Zed speaks up "<What's going to happen in six years?>"

Takagi turned to Ebony, and it took him a few seconds to recognize her as "The Black Viper".
"<Yes, sometimes prophecies are not entirely accurate. The simple fact that I prevented the second half of this prophecy from occuring is proof of that.>" Takagi explained. "<But I would not label it as untrue so hastily. Sometimes the events described in the prophecy might happen in the strangest and most unexpected ways. There really is no telling what fate could bring us.>"
He then looked back at the paper.
"<...He will then descend into a six-year slumber, after which he will rise again, at the peak of his power, destroying his mortal lord and attacking the nation of Nippon.>"
((Hm...Full Circle takes place six years after In Da Streets. Clue? Hint: search for "Hichiro" in that RP))

"<Nippon? Oh, you mean Japan. Who is his mortal lord, if I may ask?>" Ebony spoke in Japanese. She really wasn't looking forward to Hichiro appearing again six years later and had no idea what she'd be doing in six years or if she'd really have children by then. She wasn't used to thinking that far ahead and really wasn't sure how to react to such a revalation. This was all new to her. (((((OOC: Yep, I caught that hint about Hichiro in the Full Circle RP. He was mentioned when Cam had his radio on. I wonder how the future Ebony is going to learn about Hichiro...)))))

Breakbeat comes back up the hall, "the towtrucks will be here in a little bit."
Zed nods, "good."
Breakbeat continues, "They're also sending a squad car to investigate."
Zed glances over at the tuners, "No problem, We're in the right. Ebony, are you going to press charges? If not, we'll just let insurance figure things out. Boost, do you have coverage? If not I can help. After all, your sister is an 'employee.' " he says with a grin.

Boost was just alert enough to hear what Zed asked him, "We've had neither of those priveleges... Doctors wouldn't even look at us, much less treat us for injuries or illnesses... My sister and I had to take care of ourselves..." He stops and coughs. He still hurt, but it wasn't as bad as before.
Ebony glances over at Zed, "What do you mean I'm an 'employee'? I don't even know you that well. We just met."

Takagi hesitated, before finally talking. "<The mortal lord is->"
"<Takagi! Don't!>" Hichiro interrupted him.
"<After what you nearly did to these people, I don't think it would hurt for them to know a bit more about your background.>" The old Mazda replied bitterly. "<Now where was I...oh yes, the mortal lord. He's a very rich Nagoyan businesscar called Yasunori Matsumoto. So rich, in fact, that material possessions can no longer satisfy him, which is why he involves himself in extremely dangerous and risky underground business. Sabotage, assassination, even terrorism. However, these actions have driven him into extreme paranoia, making him take defensive measures that not even Hichiro could overcome. But I believe that such paranoia will be his downfall, in the long run.>"
He shifted nervously on his tires.
"<Had this been Japan, I would have probably been killed before even finishing my last sentence.>"
((Are you going to bring adult Maven and Krill into this? Because their presence could cause Hichiro's final outburst which makes him fall into his 'slumber'. Also, if John sees them, it could make for some interesting action in Full Circle.))
-------------------------------------
"Like I already mentioned, I could pay for all of Boost's medical expenses." John said. "I have a bit of extra money laying around."
By bit he meant the many thousands his father had given him once he reached adulthood, shortly before he went tuner...

"<Paranoia. Great. Just what neither of us don't need right now,>" muttered Ebony. She glared at Hichiro, "<So how did he get involved with this Yasunori Matsumoto? Some kind of pact?>"
~~~~~
Boost nodded thankfully, feeling warm inside and a little bit dizzy, "I appreciate that... We'd be in your debt... Anything that we can do for you... just ask..."
(((((OOC: I have no idea when I should bring them in... and I kinda lost track of them. I have no idea what to do with them...)))))
