"Brother," Phoenix said. "You share territory with your brother?"
(((Dang sorry to leave you hanging, I need to go and take my last final. Please puppet.)))

"Yes, I do," nodded Ebony, "He is the only family I have so that doesn't bother me. His name's Boost. Anyway, there's a lot of secret passageways that we use to get through to one territory to the next. It's to keep the authorities off our backs."
"Where are these passageways?" asked Phoenix.
"I'll show you," said Ebony, as she headed down the alley.

A Raven Bird looked to these two tuners heading though what they said where passages ways....
*from an unknown location inside ebonys turff*.... A dark looking hearse, Mustang, and Cuda sat in a dark alley... the raven emblem is missing from the hearse...
Raven: you show me your little passageways though here girls... saves us the time of messing with the cops...
*back to the bird*... It watchs them and follows staying out of sight...

(((((OOC: Sorry, had to clean up a spill in the kitchen... ^^; )))) "Where do these passageways lead exactly?" asked Phoenix as she followed Ebony along. "Anywhere basically," answered Ebony, "It's to throw off any pursuers that we might have. You can disappear through any of the hidden doorways that are located all over the city. No cops knows about these doorways, so that gives us tuners the advantage." While the two girls drove, the only sounds other than their voices were the crunching that their tires were making on the cement and the rumble of their respective engines. They made their way into what looked like an arena of sorts where a number of other tuners, probably a part of Ebony's crew, were currently hanging out. "What is this place?" asked Phoenix as she looked about. "Home," answered Ebony. Phoenix turned her attention back to Ebony, "Home? You mean you live here?" "Yep," nodded the Viper, "Only home I know." The Trans Am just didn't know what to say to this and contented herself with just following Ebony about the arena.

A purple Dodge Viper similar in appearance to Ebony drove up to the two girls as they approached. "Hey, Ebs," he said, using a shortened version of her name, "Who've got there?"
"This is Phoenix," Ebony pulled up to her brother, "She's needing a place to lay low until everything dies down back in Manhattan."
"Whoa, Manhattan's a long way away," said Boost, "But, seeing as my sister brought you hear, you're welcome to stay as long as you don't betray us."
"I won't betray you," answered Phoenix, then peered at Boost, "So you're Ebony's brother. So which part of the city to you preside over?"
"The east half," answered Boost, "Ebony has the west half."
"Oh..." Phoenix said, as she took the information in.
"You realize that you've arrived in the middle of a Street War, don't you?" asked Boost.
"I've been told that," said Phoenix, "What's the reasons?"
"Street-racing's become illegal here in California, especially here in Nitropolis," explained Boost, "The authorities are always trying to disrupt our activities and kill our favorite pasttime. We fought back."
"That bad? Wow, I certainly did drive right into the middle of a Street War," Phoenix mulled over this information, "But I'll help you in any way that I can. My word as the BlackBird."
Boost nodded solomnly and acceptingly, "Thanks, Man."

(((Finally free from college, I had to go to work afterward.)))
Phoenix looked around the arena. "This is where you all live?"
(((And I'm gonna be busy all Tuesday, mostly work related stuff.)))

"Yeah," Ebony nodded, "We live here. It's not bad because no cops knows where it is, so we're pretty safe down here and we can actually relax or do whatever without interruption."

"Thats a relief," Phoenix sighed. "We're always on edge back were I'm from, we didn't have this kind of space. It was bad enough when the coppers surprised most of us at street rallys."

"Same for us here, but we're being sneaky about it," said Boost, "The best times is the dead of night or before dawn with the cops are all getting sleepy and don't have the alertness to see what's going on. We also have our street races on deserted roads and cops don't bother looking there."
"It's a recent loophole that I discovered," added Ebony, "We can bend their system just a little bit in our favor."

The loophole comment caught Phoenix's attention. "Really," She asked. "Whats that?"

"Well, the law only states that races can't be held on public roads inside the city, but it never mentions having races outside the city, so that's where the loophole is," explained Boost.

"What a night..." rasped a BMW M3 to himself as he raced into the city, the lights' reflections dashing across his body metal. He didn't look too different, still bearing a white-and-blue paintjob...but now there were black and red pinstripes following the decal lines to reflect upon his new affiliation and status.
Carl Magnus had regained control of a sizable portion of nearby Palmont City in Carbon County as well his honor as a street racer. Now no longer content with just one city, the M3 was looking to expand into new territory.
