Author's Notes: Here's chapter 10 of our great adventure! Now I decided to add something you would never expect from Crimson. What is he going to do you ask? Read and you'll see! I decided to have a friendship/comfort scene here you just have to find out. Read & Review and enjoy! Sequel may come too if you want it.

Tears streamed down his hood and Doc could hear the patter each tear that fell made on the cement under him. The garage he had been put in or...rather thrown in was so dark Doc couldn't see his own hood!

He turned on his headlights and looked around. The windows were locked and even if they weren't they're way too small for him to get out of. He looked at the door...

My way out...

The old Hornet raced to it and banged his tires on it with a heavy force. No good...It was locked too...

Doc felt weak at this point. He lost Marrissa now Melina and his fate is a dark garage with his rival not too far away. The old Hornet lowered down giving up. Or...Did he just need his confidence put back?

While Doc was depressed and in pain Crimson however was enjoying every minute. He finally got the Hudson Hornet down on his tires begging at his mercy.

Crimson drove over to the garage to see how miserable Doc really was.

The old Hornet saw the garage door move up and only looked in it's direction not trying to escape. His eyes were out of their spark that Melina and Crimson once knew. His dusty hood had tear streaks on it from his crying. Crimson had really kicked Doc down to his lowest level possible...

Crimson waited expecting Doc to try and escape or attack him but when niether came he was shocked. Only for a few seconds though then a smirk grew on his grille "Well Hudson I've finally beaten you after all these years..."

Doc just watched him sadly following his gaze to his rival as he drove up in front of him. At this point he didn't seem to care...He just wanted his life over with...He failed his only daughter, He lost his wife and still blames himself to this day.

The old Hornet closed his eyes Just end my life now Crimson...It'll do us all good...

Crimson looked at Doc puzzled "Hudson if your playing another trick on me it's not going to work..." His voice was slightly strict.

Doc opened his eyes which were dull and out of prime looking at Crimson "Does it look like i'm playing a trick to you?" his voice was shaky and quieter than normal. He wasn't going to bite back this time.

Crimson could see he was very down but he still had his suspicions. Either Doc was a better actor than he thought or he was even more depressed than he expected.

The old Hornet interuptted Crimson's thoughts "Crimson...Just end my life now...It'll do us all good..." He closed his eyes and held his breath awaiting for the strike that would end his life.

Crimson raised a tire to do just that but when he looked at the Hornet it weakend him slowly. Doc chassis was shaking and he was low to the ground. His eyes were closed and his sides didn't move to breathe at all. He was holding it waiting for the strike. Crimson never seen Doc this way in his life!

He backed down shaking his hood eyes slightly widened "I-I-I can't do it Hudson..."

Doc gave a weak reply still holding his breath "Why not? You wanted to get rid of me for years nows your chance...I don't deserve to live here anymore..."

Those words hit Crimson hard. All these years he envied Doc and wanted to finish his life. Now he had the chance but couldn't do it...How did he lose his nerve?

Crimson drove up and Doc lowered down figuring he was about to be rammed instead but the crimson vipor did no such thing.

He lowered down low by Doc's side and nudged his side trying to get the Hornet to take a breath "Com'n Hudson..."

The Hornet took a breath and Crimson felt Doc's engine pounding against his side.

Crimson stayed with the old Hornet that night comforting him.
