"Get off my ass" a young woman said as she raced her 2011 Bugatti Veyron on a long stretch of road, behind her were a group of black 2000 Nissan Pulsars, next to her she had a laptop she was typing on using one hand.
"Computer disable Speed Limiters" she said as an error message flashed up on the screen. "Asshole," she gripped the wheel harder and entered a hill which was a long empty road surrounded by canyon walls. She was panicking so she tried to disable her speed limiters again meeting the same error message. She knew that she couldn't out run them with the additional installs that brought her top speed from 415km/h to a mere 203km/h. Not the speeds she wanted or needed right now.
"Good idea dad, lower my top speed so I won't got over the road limit and injure myself also it will stop me from getting away for these assholes!" the girl shouted as two of the Pulsars sandwiched her in.
"Give it up princess" a thug said pulling out his Walther PPK with a silencer attached and pointed it at the drive; who rolled her window down and leant her seat back as teh bullet whizzed past her.
"Have to do better than that!" the girl shouted as her heart rate went up 'I'm going to die here' she turned shaly doing down another long straight road with the Nissan Goon Squad behind her it was a bad thing.
"Help me please, ANYBODY HELP!" she shouted as her car flew past.
"On the road again, just can't get back on the road" the radio blared making Fox raise an eyebrow at the driver
"Dude, Tuk's been getting you to listen to country again hasn't he?" Fox asked unamused at the song on the radio
"Shut up, why are you even with me, Sage could've handled it" Scarlet said switching over the hard rock radio station and listen as Linkin Park blasted out of the speakers making the two head bop "Better?"
"Much Better" Fox smiled before seeing something "Hey Scar did you catch that?"
"No what" Scarlet asked downing the music down, only to hear several engine noises.
"What is that Pulsars?" Fox asked
"No, those sound like SR20DET engines that are used in the Silvia S15" Scarlet said
"And that other one was die 8.0L Quad Turbo W16 engine of a Bugatti Veyron" Fox said as he saw the silver an dice blue Veyron chased by the black modified Pulsars.
"Those things have to be modified with those Silvia engines" Scarlet said as he directed his Charger towards the unfair road fight. It was then Fox noticed several things were off about them. "I don't think it's just the engines" Fox said
"What do you mean?" Scarlet asked nervously
"reinforced tyres, black window tint, Turbochargers. Also seems like the suspension been alter to accept a higher level of punishment; in other words!" Fox started
"SHIT! Those things are Heist cars!" Scarlet realised
"And I'm betting that Veyron driver is the target of this little gang" Fox said
"You thinking what I'm thinking?" Scarlet asked
"Oh yeah" Fox smirked as they neared the closet Pulsar.
One of the drivers heard a knock on his window, looking to the window he saw Fox signalling for him to wind the window down
"May I help you?" the driver asked
"Si" Fox answered driving his fist into the driver's face, making him swerve off the road "Puta"
"Was that really necessary?" Scarlet asked
"Whatever, anyway we should you know" Fox said
"Right the girl" Scarlet said racing "So who do you think we're saving?"
"I dunno" Fox said climbing onto the roof
"HEY! GET DOWN! I JUST POLISHED THE DAMN ROOF!" Scarlet roared before Fox jumped onto a second "Bloody Idiot!"
"Okay knock, KNOCK!" Fox said opening the door pulling the driver out before jumping in and taking the car further down the road. Next Fox got up behind the lead one and gave him a not so gentle shove into the stone wall of the narrow canyon road before the rear window was shot out
"SON OF A BITCH!" Fox cried ducking down as he spied a radio and keyed it into their radio signal "Er, dude need a hand here!"
"Got you" Scarlet said accelerating to catch up with Fox's 'borrowed car'
the driver of the Veyron was nearly at the limit, her pursuers had nearly cornered her when out of nowhere a dark red Charger comes charging in and takes down two of them.
"They must be a part of one of the local crews" the girl chuckled as another car came up to her and was about to push off the road when the Charge decided to play pool with the cars, slamming into one of the cars sending it straight into the car behind her, making it fishtail before it was under control and they backed off. Allow the Bugatti's driver some relief before her engine started to splutter
"Not now! come on girl, its won't be much farther" she said as her tyres whined making her more nervous "Fuel and tires great!" she whined before she looked behind her to see one of the racers helping her jumping into a car with the passenger seat closet to the driver.
"That's risky" she said looking ahead.
Fox had found the only Pulsar with empty seat closet to him, he cut the engine, opened his door and the enemy door before leaping in and buckled up
"Hey, sweet ride; what's the price 2.3 grand?" Fox asked as the thug driver missed him "Okay, little low isn't it, 2.6 grand instead?" he chuckled before basically making the driver to make out with the steering wheel.
"Adios!" Fox said kicking him out of the car as Scarlet's Dodge reversed up next to the car
"GET IN YOU IDIOT!" Scarlet said as Fox did a car to car transfer. "It's a wonder you haven't gotten yourself killed yet" the redhead commented pulling a 180 and drove over to the Bugatti's side and beeped his horn to get the driver's attention
"Damn she's cute" Fox commented as he got the CB radio and pointed to it as the driver nodded and flashed a 2 and a 3 with her fingers. Fox nodded again as Scarlet got in front of her while Fox got on the radio
"Yo senorita you okay?" Fox asked.
"Yeah, but I'm in a spot of bother, my car is bingo on fuel and about to lose its tyres" the Bugatti's driver said
"Okay, we'll lead you to the nearest service station" Fox said
"Thank you; but I must ask who saved my car and life?" the driver said
"We're Fox and Scarlet" Fox said
"I'm Winter Schnee" the driver revealed her name.
"Wait, Winter Schnee as in the Winter Schnee who's in charge of the Schnee Fuel Synergy?" Scarlet asked
"The very one" Winter said "And the twin sister of Weiss Schnee"
"Doesn't Weiss work with the performance side of things?" Fox asked
"She does, now I don't seem to be rude but can we continue this conversation later, and when we can look each others in the eyes?" Winter asked
"Good idea, like I said we'll lead you in" Scarlet said
"Thank you" she said as she slowed down to reduce the stress on her tyres while following the two to a nearby service station.
"Here we are, the service station. Arieko's Services" Fox said getting out of the Charger "Look for an attendant"
"Relax, we'll just get some fuel before heading back to the Pit Stop" Scarlet said
"Yeah we have better facilities there" Fox agreed with the redhead "Now, I'll go pay for the fuel"
"Hey don't get any of those Freezeburn Sundaes!" Scarlet shouted
"Freezeburn Sundae?" Winter asked
"An ice cream sundae served up with a spice chilli chocolate fudge sauce, they are nice but" Scarlet said
"But?" Winter asked
"He's stomach can't handle it in a big amount" Fox said passing out salted caramel ice creams.
"Now shall we?" Winter asked.
"Yeah let's go" Scarlet said "Serious Salted Caramel?"
"Shut up" Fox snarled as he got in
"Thank goodness it's an easier drive from here back to their shop" Winter mused starting up her car's W16 engine, listening to the idling of the engine somewhat soothed her frayed nerves.
Back at the Pit Stop Ruby had just finished putting on a vinyl like the ones on her old Evo IX, only the outer petals had a slim outlining of chrome on the top making them look frosted.
"Not bad" Neptune said looking at the black and silvery vinyl as Ruby stood up wiping her brow
"Thanks, it was what was on the Evo my sister gave me" Ruby said as Scarlet and Fox returned with Winter in tow.
"Who is this?" Neptune asked as Winter got out
"No way" Ruby gasped before hugging Winter "Weiss" Ruby mumbled earning a good natured chuckle from Winter
"I'm afraid you got me mixed up with my twin sister, I'm Winter Schnee, and you must be Ruby" Winter said. Ruby took a step back and looked at the girl in front of her, she had her silver hair hanging losingly, she wore a frost white long sleeved dress that seemed to hug her curves correctly, over top she had an ice blue midriff blazer and a lace cape underneath it.
"Yeah I am, but how did?" Ruby asked
"My sister asked me to keep an eye out for a young girl with red and black hair, silver eyes and an innocence to her. I'm guessing that's you" Winter smiled. "Its a shame that I won't be able to tell Weiss, considering I'm not supposed to be in Vacuo, but rather Mistral" Winter said
"Alright, we'll get you back on track, what do you need?" Neptune asked
Nora sat in her room listening to her music with her emblazed headphone while dressed in her pyjamas, a black Boop shirt and her pink boyshorts covered in mauve lightning bolts. She nodded her head to the beat before thinking of something
"No it couldn't be that simple could it?" Nora asked pulling out her phone, she dialled Ruby's number and waited
"Hello?" a voice asked
"Blake?" Nora asked
"Yeah it's me; Ruby left her phone at home that day" Blake explained.
"Okay so that busts that idea" Nora sighed
"You were hoping to see if Ruby picked up didn't you?"
"Yeah, anyway Sun's planning a race next weekend" Nora said
"I'll tell Yang, though I don't think she'll go" Blake said
"Who knows, maybe it will be good for her" Nora smiled "Night Blake
"Night Nora" Blake said before Nora closed her phone
"Ruby are you okay?" she asked the moon.
A/N okay so that was Winter's introduction into the series.
Now me and the other race writers are trying to spread our fics' existence around so more people can enjoy them. So if any reader is on TvTropes please add us as recommendations and maybe Trope Pages, just saying that would be good and help us more with getting these stories out.
