This scenario takes place after the third stage with Takumi joining project D.
BBBRRIIIIINNNNGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!! The school bell rang, dismissing the students from the school. Takumi slowly emerged suspiciously, trying to avoid anyone who might have heard the news of him joining Project D. All morning he had been bugged by his classmates on how he had been selected into the team. Now that class was over, he was sure that he would be once again bugged by people not only from his class but also others, he was now attending Akina College away from Itsuki who used to protect and shield him from such assaults. Slowly he crept behind a bush until he reached a white old looking 2 doored Toyota Trueno. He quickly unlocks the door and slipped in, already a small group of students had begun to walk towards his direction. Takumi quickly started his car and sped off leaving his schoolmates behind.
It had only been three weeks after being entered into Project D, a new racing team created by Ryosuke Takahashi who is known nationwide for his driving capabilities. News of Takumi joining had spread like wildfire and soon people around him started paying more attention to him. Male schoolmates would surround him asking for driving tips whereas the girls would be asking for the home phone number of the Takahashi brothers. Takumi continued driving absent mindedly when he suddenly heard a honking sound. He looked back to see a yellow FD RX7 behind him before casually overtaking him. It was Keisuke Takahashi, brother of Ryosuke and fellow member of Project D. The RX7 signaled Takumi to stop by the road side. Keisuke then exit his car and walked towards the open window of the Trueno. "Ryosuke wants to hold a meeting tonight at our place, at seven... wait better make it 6.30 seeing as how you always show up at the last minute" joked Keisuke. Takumi nodded his head and continued on his way.
6.30pm...Time for Takumi to head for the meeting. He passed by Bunta who was fast asleep on the sofa. He entered his car and brought the engine to life, next thing he knew, he was already on the mountain pass of Akina. Even though it was only six in the evening, the pass was already quite deserted, driving casually he began to recall the races he had won on this course, his easy victory over Keisuke, killing the skyline GTR R32 of Nakazato, one handed battle with Shingo in the Honda civic eg-6, a lancer evo, a Toyota MR2 and last but not least the FC of Ryosuke. He thought back on how he had beaten these opponents and the same reason of victory kept popping to mind, he had mastered this track.. there was no way he could have beaten opponents like Ryosuke on another track other than Akina. Now being in Project D, Ryosuke had taken over for Bunta as a driving coach. Under him both the skills of Takumi and Keisuke had improved significantly, the 3 of them were now easily beating lesser teams like the Tsunamis and Thunder Racers soundly. This did not come as much of a surprise to anyone seeing that Project D is a team consisting of great drivers with cars to match. A highly modified FC, an FD not to mention a Trueno with a monstrous engine.
Takumi slowly entered into the driveway of the Takahashi brothers. He could see that Keisuke's car was being worked on by some mechanics. It was then when he saw Ryosuke standing beside his white FC. They greeted each other and proceeded into the house where Keisuke was already waiting. Ryosuke then began the meeting, "Guys, I think we are ready to start challenging the more famous teams in the area. The redsuns and speedstars have agreed to forfeit the races as they concluded that they would not want to race against their own team members, this I understand therefore these 2 teams would be excused. So that leaves us with the Emperors, Speeders and Streetkings. We should be able to beat these teams however the Emperors might give us a run for our mo..." "Ryosuke.. I think you have missed out Nightkids" Takumi interrupted "Although we have beaten them before I think they are still a team ranked higher than the streetkings and Speeders" continued this time by Keisuke.
"This is the reason I have called the meeting" Ryosuke continued "Three members aren't enough to support a team especially one of such caliber. Therefore I have decided to include 2 more drivers. One of them I have decided is Nakazato....he has the skills required and also a very powerful car to boot, so what do you guys think?" At this point Keisuke began to fume..."We don't need any useless GTR driver on the team, right Takumi...takumi?" At this point Takumi was a little lost as it was the first time someone had asked about his opinion especially since it was an opinion pointed out by the Takahashi brothers. "Sorry Kei, but I think Ryosuke has a point. That GTR did push your FD to the limit." By now Keisuke was already on the verge of exploding, he glared dangerously at Takumi who slowly shrinked and melted onto the floor. "Kei Nakazato has the skills and you'll have to admit it, a tryout will be held for him here in Akagi, if he matches your time or Takumi's then he's in." "Anything you say bro" snorted Keisuke impatiently.
"Ryo then who's the other driver?" asked Takumi curiously "If it's not Shingo then it can't be Kyouichi right." A sly smile suddenly appeared on the lips of Ryosuke as he replied "right it's not either of them..the driver is however someone very fast and I choose not to reveal who he is until the tryouts with Nakazato is over." Now it was time for Keisuke to be naughty, "why not Kyouichi, isn't he faster than Nakazato?" "He's not faster, trust me, another reason is that I really hate him. Meetings over, I have to be at another meeting in 15 minutes. Bye" Takumi and Keisuke stared at each other as Ryosuke started his FC and drove out into the open streets of Gunma.
