Race Wars

4

We arrive at the warehouse an hour later, I open the double door and we drive our cars in, we all get out of our cars and check the place out, 'GUYS LOOK WE HAVE A TABLE!' I should far to excited, we all laugh and walk around to see what else we got, 'OK, this may be a bit of a problem.' Dylan says cautiously, 'What?' We turn to face him, 'I think we forgot tools.' He says, 'That's why we brought you.' I smirk and walk to my car, 'Ha ha ha.' He says sarcastically, 'Dylan they gave us cars, they're going to give us tools.' I say opening the boot revealing a tool box, 'see?' I heave it out of the car and place it on the table along with all the weapons, 'Okay, now what?' As I said this my phone began to ring, 'Hello?' I answer, 'It's Brian, I'm seding you the locations of Joshua and his crew, have fun.' With that he hung up, 'What happen?' Izzy asks bouncing around me, I read the message and smile, 'looks like we're going racing.'

I turn on the radio and try and decipher what they're saying, 'What language is that?' Izzy asks, 'Portuguese, shh they're talking about a shooting at one of Joshua's money houses.' I say hushing them, 'OK, game plan. We arrive at the race and ask around for Joshua and his crew, when we find them-' I get cut off by Jake, 'How are we going to get them to join their crew.' We all look at each other, 'You girls could shake your asses at them.' Dylan offers, I shoot him a glare and punch his arm, 'You could go give him a blow job if you want.' I shoot back, 'OK, guys relax, why don't we make a deal with him, one of us races him and if we win we join his crew, they win they take Leni's dodge.' Izzy says trying to calm the tension, 'Yeah goo- I'm not using my car as barter!' I shout, 'Then don't lose the race!' They all shout back, I wave it off and walk over to my car, 'What are you doing? It's a brand new car?' Izzy asks, 'Brand new? It was made in 1969.' I look at her confused, she looks at me and starts laughing uncontrollablely, 'I mean they would have checked everything before.' She corrects her self, 'I'm fixing the timing.' She gives me a confused look, I roll my eyes and point to my engine, 'look,' I nod my head in the direction of my hand, 'I loosen the bolt that secures the engine's distributor, I turn it clockwise to advance the timing and once it's right-' do me a favor and rev it a bit,' as she revs the engine I adjust the timing, I hold my hand up for her to stop and quickly tighten the bolt again, 'Done see? Easy.' I say wiping my hands on a rag.

'IT'S TIME TO RACE!' Jake and Dylan yell at the same time, we all get in our cars and drive to the race, when we arrive people part as they see us, some tap the hood of our cars and some shout harsh stuff at us in Portuguese, we pull up between a Koenigsegg CCXR and a Porsche 911GT3RS, I smirk at the little pieces of shut between us and get out of my car, 'Nice ride.' A guy says walking up to it gliding his hand over the hoof, 'Get your hands off my car.' I snarl, 'I'm looking for Joshua Bradley and his crew.' I say with this I get his attention, 'And why should I tell you that.' He says smirking, 'Because if you do, I won't break your neck.' I say my words laced with venom, 'Follow me.' He gulps, I signal the guys to follow, we all have our weapons with us incase things go shitty, we reach a door and he guy knocks on it three times the eye slot slide open and the guys says something in Portuguese along the lines of 'it's all clear they're with me.' In seconds the door slides open and we enter a huge room with music pumping and people playing pool, drinking and making out, we continue following the guy and walk to a secluded area fenced off by red rope, 'This lady wants to speak with you sir.' He bows slightly, Joshua looks up at me and raises an eye brow, 'Go away.' He snarls at the guy and he quickly scurries away, 'And what do you want.' He shoots at us, 'we want to join your crew.' I say sternly, the club like room goes quiet and all eyes fall on us, he let's out a harsh laugh and looks at us with his cold eyes, 'come up here.' He demands, I hesitate for a second not liking to be made to do anything but finally walk up the other three go to follow but he shops them saying he wants a one on one conversation or something like that. 'Take a seat.' He says offering me a chair, 'I'd prefer to stand if it's all the same with you.' I answer, 'Now, like I said before we want to join your crew, I know you're not going to let us in easy so we come with a proposition, I race one of you're team members and if I win we join, if I lose you get my car.' I finish, giving him a hard look, 'Sounds like you know how to make a deal, what type of car?' He asks, '1969 dodge Daytona. Not that it'll matter by the end of the race seeing as I'm going to win.' He smirks and glances at me, 'We'll see about that. DOM! You're up.' A tall guy walks up to the rope, he wore a black singlet top revealing his muscular arms, he had denim jeans and black timberland, around his neck was a silver chain with a silver cross on it, I size him up and walk up to him. 'Let's race.' We walk out to our cars and drive to the starting like, 'Ready...' the flagger asks pointing to both of us, the guy named Dom revs him engine, I do the same but louder, 'Set... GO!' she drops her hands down to her side and we speed off leaving the crowd cheering, with Dom only an inch or so in front of me I shift gears and press down on my accelerator, making us neck and neck, we turn a bed and I shoot out in front, zipping past him, leaving him behind, I come to the last stretch and see that Dom had used his NOS just before he was past me I tap his bumper causing his car to spin uncontrollablely, I smile widely as I cross the line first. Cheers erupted around me.

'YOU CHEAT!' Dom shouts getting out of his car, 'I didn't think there were any rules.' I say simply, Joshua comes walking up to us clapping, 'you are quite a driver. Welcome to the team you four.' He says gripping my shoulders, 'THAT'S BULLSHIT!' Dom yells, Joshua turns to face him and says 'go cry to your mumma, eh?' I chuckle as he gets into his car and speeds off, here is your GPS when you get a message follow it, it'll take you to your next race.' He hands us one each and turns to walk away.

We get into our cars and drive home, when we arrive we notice there is only two bedrooms, 'boys in one girls in the other.' Izzy says putting her hair up and walking to the a bedroom. 'Night boys.' Izzy and I say 'night.' They reply and we go to bed. When were inside the bedroom I turn to Izzy she's already laying in bed I plop down beside her and huff, 'So...' I begin, 'Eleni you smell like burnt rubber.' She wines, 'Be quiet I gotta ask you something.' 'What?' She asks sitting up concern filled her eyes, 'What we're you doing with the pilot?' I ask she looks at me for a moment and sighs, 'can we talk about it tomorrow? I'm tired.' She says faking a yawn, 'Fine...' I say laying down and falling into a deep sleep instantly.
