Need For Speed Tri City Stories

Chapter 7 - The drag queen vs the leader and a little secret

10:55 pm. Rosewood Golf Course. I looked silent and I think about Ellie. "Oh my goodness he is daydreaming about her right now." Jordan said as he witnesses me daydreaming about Ellie and looks suspiciously close to me. "Dude why are you so close to me looking suspiciously?" I asked. "You've been acting like a spaced out person." Jordan answered. "I have?" I asked. "I know you're not thinking straight and you're thinking about something constantly." Jordan answered again. "Well I guess you have a point, I have been thinking about something constantly." I replied. "He can't stop thinking about Ellie's soft lips, long hair and soft skin." Jordan said in his mind. "I don't know, I'm just thinking about the future of our relationship and we may become a couple I guess is what you could say." I said. "Huh? You thinking about the future? One kiss and it could lead to a miscalculation." "How can bring up a tragic subject to man know as a lonely driver I mean seriously bro get with the program. You know what this kissing that would lead you to." Jordan said as he grabbed on to my shirt. "Oh. Yeah and what would that be?" I asked. "You know it." Jordan answered. "Ok you're nonsense. Now get your hands off of me. What I meant about the future and our relationship is... honestly let's drop it I don't have words of to speak if you know what I mean." I said as I grabbed Jordan's wrist off of my shirt and then I looked away. "Looks like this love is maybe gonna be non stop or something I don't know." Jordan said in his mind. Camden Beach. "Okay why is Branden looking at the sky?" Gillian asked. "Because he's been daydreaming about a girl he likes." Jordan answered. "Do you know who it is?" Gillian asked as she took a sip of her apple juice. "It's the girl that raced against Josh and the one has a crush on him." Jordan replied. "Ellie? Hold on, you think Branden's gonna keep racing if he doesn't have his head screwed on right and focused on the race?" Gillian asked. "Just let the kid do what he wants. The kid can do whatever he can do, whether he keeps looking at the sky. Just let Branden do what he has to do. Even though he doesn't have his head screwed on tight, he should be able to clinch the win to that Griffin guy with no sweat. Gillian and Jordan, let Branden do what he is. He won't listen to anyone that can try to stop him from his love thoughts." Letty answered as she came out from the restroom. "We understand boss, sorry. There is one thing I wanted to ask you, aren't you up against Blacklist 8?" Jordan asked. "Yes." Letty answered. "Do you know where you're gonna race her?" Jordan asked again. "I said we can settle this on a point to point from Camden to Rosewood and then at Rosewood we'll do a drag race. This girl's driving a muscle car while my FD3S is a Japanese Sports car so that'll mean I'll have the advantage over on either the corners or the straightaways her because her is an NA while my car is turbocharged." Letty replied. "This girl has got power I think you may or may not pull off the win. She's got big block and muscle under that Mustang and I don't know if your FD can beat that muscle. Rotary VS Muscle. Man this'll be epic." Jordan said as he felt the chills. "Don't worry Jordan, I'll go with my usual strategy on the Point to Point run and I'll pull away on the drag race. That is how I'll clinch the win." Letty replied. Camden Beach Boardwalk. "Starting in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, GO!" I shouted as I started the countdown. Both of the cars launched at a perfect start but Letty decides to let off the accelerator and let her opponent pass so she can watch and analyze how she drives and enters those corners and usually passes at the end. "So Letty's gonna go with the usual strategy." I said as I looked at the start. "But why did she let off the accelerator after a few seconds at the start?" Jordan asked. "When it comes to the start Letty lets off her accelerator after a few seconds, she lets opponent pass her and watches her technique and how she drives during the beginning and the middle. But in the end Letty figures out a way she break her opponent's weakness before the finish line." I explained. "Woah, Letty you are one crazy monster." Jordan said in his mind. Rockport City. "The way how she enters those corners are pure and simple, she usually hogs the inside or the outside when she thinks I'm about to pass her but I'm not attempting to make a move now but I'll make a move at the tunnel section after that interstate change that'll lead to Rosewood Campus." Letty said in her mind as she shifted down to 3rd and drifted on the corners. The finish line at Rosewood campus. Letty won the point to point and they're on the drag race. "Branden why does everyone in the whole Tri city think we're too good?" Jordan asked. "They all think we're slow but then we keep winning and spooking them by proving them and one of our opponents wrong. So like from now on, our plan to is to do the time trials but we can't because we don't want to show our techniques to our opponents. They can try to analyze us and give it to our enemies so they can take us out, but remember we're going up against tougher opponents is what Letty said from now on." I explained. "So now we're moving up to the top and now we can't show anyone our techniques and how we drive?" Pro asked again. "Yes we can't, those guys are not that easy and trust me. They're very hard to beat and we're gonna need to come up with different driving styles. But I hope Letty analyzes the drag queen's movements." I answered. Rosewood Campus Enterance. "The turn at the end of the highway on the left or before the finish line to the campus is my last chance to make my move." "Your weakness is a fear of turning wide to the left. That's something you scared to do and frankly.. you completely suck at making left turns." Letty said in her mind as she attacked from the outside and made a passing maneuver. "What?! Damn it, she's got me stuck! I can't use my grip or the turbo's power!" Patrica said in her mind as she kept her foot on the accelerator but couldn't get out because Letty blocked her on the outside while she is on the inside. At the moment at the straightaway before the left turn to the finish, Letty floored it, pressed the left nozzle button and attacked the left turn as the moment of her eyes were wide open and accelerated at full throttle with no braking. "Yes!" Letty said in her mind as she opened the window of her car and showed her victory fist as she crossed the finish line and performed some donuts. "She won the race! I knew Letty could win the first race!" Jordan exclaimed as he raised his hand and he gave me a high five as I raised my hand after. "Now it's the drag run, let's hope Letty can pull this off." I replied. Rosewood. "On my count! 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, GO!" Ellie exclaimed as she started the countdown by raising her arm showing the 5 fingers, covering it and the cars launched at a furious launch. "The FD should have the upper hand on the start because of it's Twin Turbochargers, the Mustang though, I don't know. I just hope Letty can win this." Ellie said in her mind as she witnessed the car's launch at the starting line. At the finish line. "Looks like the race is over." I said in my mind as I heard the cars stopped. "Sure is." Jordan answered
