Thrill Ride

Chapter one

Tobey Marshall stepped out onto the hard parched ground underneath him and took in his surroundings for the first time in months. Being in Jail meant no racing and no sunlight, Both of these factors Tobey needed to survive. Once the electronic gates shut Tobey knew once again that he had his freedom back, And was no longer restricted to sleeping in a hard cell that was surrounded by various criminals from people refusing to pay for a speeding ticket to convicted killers. Tobey knew that he wasn't an angel himself, Yet he felt completly uncomfortable around some of the more serious criminals. But he had to smirk to himself knowing that they wouldn't be getting out for many years whilst he would be doing what he did best. Driving. Most people would call Tobey crazy, Tobey called himself normal. You can't feel the thrill of driving without letting go of the rules and driving the way cars want to be driven, And Tobey knew very well that if you don't push the boundrys you will never find the boundry. Tobey had an advantage in the racing world being a Marshall and all, But this didn't mean he had a all access pass to the racing world. Tobey had to fight for his place in the racing world and he wouldn't lose this right without putting up a fight, Even if the law disagreed. Tobey took a deep breath of the hot San Francisco air and studied the dusty surroundings. Tobey wondered briefly how he was going to get home when a red 2015 ford mustang flew across the barren landscape, towards Tobey at a alarming speed. This did not scare Tobey, He had driven cars which were one wrong move away from being wedged in a tree. Tobey was not sure who was actually driving the ford but whoever it was definitely had skills. Tobey studied the 2015 Mustang once again amd found himself unable to look away. Tobey eventually managed to look away long enough for the Ford to pull up next to him. Tobey did not bother to put his gaze back onto the car and looked back at the jail that had become like Tobeys third home, Next to cars and Marshall's garage, and thought about when he would next be visiting it. Everyone knew there would be a next time, It was just a matter of when. Tobey had completely forgotten about the Ford waiting for him, So when a familiar British accent starts to speak to him, It was a shock. "Come on man what are you waiting for? Get in hotshot!" A voice that could only be Julia's exclaimed to him whilst she moved her big sunglasses down to the tip of her nose and her bright blue eyes looked into his eyes, Raising her eyebrows in the process. She was dressed in a black dress that went just above her knees with another pair of her black high heels. Tobey looked at her appearance and found himself looking down at himself to study his plain white shirt and jeans which were covered lightly in sand from standing too long. Tobey shook his head but moved his hand towards the door and got into the car, taking in the interior. "Shes a beauty isn't she? Only cost me a couple of million but I figured New Yorks best driver deserves only the best escort. I'm driving by the way. " Julia stated, Putting the car into drive when Tobey was seated. "I've seen your driving.." Tobey stated slowly before watching Julia pull he sunglasses back onto her face, Put her hands onto the steering wheel and let out a short chuckle at his comments before she pulled the car away from the Jail. "There is a street race in 3 days downtown. I figured that you would want to join in so I took the liberty of getting a ticket for us." Julia said, with her full concentration on the road ahead. Tobeys eyes switched from the side view mirror showing the jail fading into the dust being kicked up by the powerful Ford, to Julia's face. "Us?" Tobey asked skeptically. "I am not going to let you have all the fun am i?" Julia replied, Allowing her shaded eyes to glance at Tobey's face and smirk at his shocked reaction. Julia had to put her eyes back onto the road incase they crashed meaning the two settled into a comfortable silence for a few moments. "I Need a car.." Tobey muttered to no one in paticular, Which made Julia laugh. "God you've only been out for ten minutes and already you want to be behind the wheel! We will get one when we get back into San Fransisco, The guys are waiting for us to return anyways." Julia stated, Tobey nodded and Julia decided to put the car in the next gear and speed even quicker towards San Fransisco, kicking up more dust in the process, Allowing Tobey to sink further into the seat and relax knowing that he was in safe, Capable hands.
