"Yep, exactly," nodded Ebony, taking her own controller, "Ready? Go!" She jabbed down on the start button and the game began. "Oh, I think we have to get through the introduction first to see what the story is about." (((((OOC: Here => www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJZaJpJEXf4 It's also on the YouTube Finds thread...)))))

"As long as it isn't one of those 15 minute ones," Phoenix said her antenna twitching.

"I think it's just the five minute one," said Ebony, "I haven't played this in awhile, though, and I may be a little rusty." There was a pause. "Oh, here we go. Now we can actually start playing. Looks like we have to start in the city. Lots of streets and alleyways we can get lost in. We might have to split up for a bit and meet up later when we get to the boss stage."

"Got it," Phoenix said, the end of her antenna hovering over the fire button. "Come on I'm ready for ya."

As soon as they both "split up", the baddies started popping out of side streets and alleyways, shooting at the intrepid "bounty hunters". Ebony started jabbing down on the fire button, then taking cover from return fire. Once her character got a hit and that lowered her strength level down a bit, but she kept going.

Playing the video game was a welcome relief from the stress of the streets for Ebony. The bounty hunter Viper that she was playing was easy to get the hang of playing and she shifted into it easily.
She manuevered, dodged, and fired at any baddies that were coming her way, getting ever closer to where she and Phoenix would soon meet up to take on the first boss.

((Okay, don't know how long it will work for me today. This is quite frustrating.)))
"So where's this first boss at?" Phoenix asked firing at a baddie and moving along to the next one.

Suddenly a spray of bullets richocheted off the sides of buildings and straight toward the two bounty hunters. Ebony had to punch several buttons to duck and scoot out of the way.
"There he is!" Ebony answered quickly beginning to fire at the Ford Mustang that came charging out at them, machine guns firing rapidly, "We have to keep out of his way and try to hit his weak spot as many times as possible!"

Phoenix moved her hunter to dodge a spray of bullets and fired at his side. "Where's the weak-spot at?"

Ebony did a couple of dodges and returned fire, keeping mostly out of the way of the Mustang's spray of bullets.
"If I remember correctly, I think it might be underneath his front, left wheel well," replied Ebony as she searched for a good spot to take aim, "Hit it as many times as possible and his energy and life levels will drop!"

(((((OOC: Just going to have to doublepost and get this going again... *sigh*)))))
A black Toyota Supra was piqued by his discovery of the old, abandoned subway tunnels. He had stumbled across an old entrance way that looked like it had not been used in years, but he could catch the faint hint of tire tracks on the dirt-covered ground at the opening, as well as a familiar scent that he had come to know all too well.
The Black Viper. She used this tunnel for some reason, but what?
He decided to go inside to check it out.
~~~~~
Ebony and Phoenix, with much effort, finally managed to beat the first level boss. The second level boss became just a little bit harder to beat, as Ebony's hunter had died a couple of times. It was also a little trickier to get through the maze of tunnel systems that somehow reminde Ebony of her subway tunnel home.
The two played for hours on end until Ebony ran out of quarters, so they left the arcade to go back to the subway tunnels, as they were feeling quite tired already. It was already after midnight and Ebony did not like staying up well past that time. She wanted some sleep.
When they arrived at the underground Arena, what they found was a mess.
"Chrysler! What the heck happened here?" Boost demanded as he observed the damage.
"Who did this?" asked Phoenix.
Ebony lifted her nose, sniffing at the scents that were floating around the Arena. One scent in particular caught her attention.
"Dammit! It's that Supra!" she snarled, "He's been here!"
A low growl erupted from the Trans Am, "Geez... and we've been gone for how long? Most of the night?"
Ebony nodded. "He now knows where this place is now," she said, "We're not safe now and neither are the children." She looks around, "Where are the children?"
The children had hidden themselves when Tony came as they didn't want to be discovered by the black Supra. He looked menacing to them and they were scared that they could most possibly be badly hurt by him if he found them.
When they heard the three familiar voices, the three children poked their noses out of their hiding places and dashed out when they saw that it was Boost, Ebony, and Phoenix. Quickly, they explained to the three tuners what had happened, telling the older cars what Tony had been looking for and what things that he had taken before he left.
This angered Boost and Ebony. Phoenix was just as aggitated as well. All three vowed to find and take care of the Supra. He had to be punished for his deeds.

-Thing backed out of his lair, shutting off his television. He was going hunting. He'd have that Supra's hood on a platter if it was the last thing he ever did. Thing hated cars like that... arrogant, pompous S.O.B.'s who couldn't grasp that they weren't the greatest vehicle alive. Most of the names on that hitlist of his were names of celebrities, police officers and others who were notoriously arrogant.-

Tony was still in the tunnels, now trying to find his way out. It's like a maze in here.
~~~~~
"How far has he gotten?" asked Boost, knowing that his sister was the better tracker in the group.
Ebony sniffed at the air. "From what I can tell, he's still somewhere in the tunnels. We can maybe catch up to him before he finds his way to the surface."
"Then lead us to him," Boost said, giving Ebony the upfront position.

Phoenix nodded and revved. "How much of a head-start does he have?"
