*A car's engine sounds can be heard roaring as I emerged from the darkness, smiling.*
Me: Hello everyone and welcome to the 62nd chapter of my second new Misc. Anime Story!
*The light then turns on to see the Yellow Supra and Yakito in his racing form.*
Yakito: So it has started.
Me: Yep.
Yakito: The fate of everyone is in our hands.
Me: Yes indeed.
Yakito: Actually, the fate of everyone should be in your hands.
Me: Eh?! Why me?!
Yakito: You are the writer after all so the Osaka city relies on you. Good luck! XD
*I gulped as he laughed.*
Me: Anyway, I would like to first thank you all so much for supporting us by favoriting and following me as well as my other stories.
Yakito: Yep and since it's a Misc. Anime story, it's a complete OC's story. Therefore he owns the OCs and no one can use them without his permission.
Me: Indeed and now, let's get to the 62nd chapter of my second ever Misc. Anime story. Hope you all enjoy this chapter :).
*And so the roar of the engines can be heard as Yakito then turns on the headlights on his Yellow Supra MK4. The headlights are on. Yakito smiles while I sighed before smiling.*
Yakito: Let the battles begin!
Chapter 62: The First Two Races.
"So guys. Who wants to go first?" Yakito asked.
"I will!" The Mohawker leader said with determination, "I'm gonna show them that these guys are so wrong to come into our territory!"
"Try to keep yourself cool. If you rage like that, you would lose your focus." Ryoko said, "When the stakes are as high as this, we can't afford a bad start."
"Right. Sorry."
He looked around this team and asked:
"Would anyone take care of this dog for me?"
"I will mate." Zen said as the poor dog whimpered.
"Don't worry. I will be back."
The dog whimpered again.
"These guys have got fast cars that are obviously stolen." Yakito said, "Also do be aware that they might pull out some dirty tricks."
"Don't worry. I will keep that in mind." The Mohawker leader said as he gave a thumbs up, "Well then. I'm off."
"Good luck!" Motoki called as the Mohawker leader nodded before going out and then she said slowly to Yakito, "Will he be okay? I mean these stolen cars..."
"Don't worry. We'll have to wait and see." Yakito said before watching the confrontation.
As the Mohawker leader stepped in the starting line up with his Honda S2000, he turned to face his opponent. He's a big guy with a short haircut and has a thin mustache. He's going to be riding on the stolen Ford GT.
"Ready to go down with that underpowered car of yours?" The racer asked in a mocking way in which the Mohawker leader is angry about it but then he remembers Ryoko's words.
"You should say that to yourself." The Mohawker leader said, "The one who will be going down is you. My S2000 will boot you to the bin."
"LOL. You know what? You should join us. After all, those who have Mohawk hairstyles are mostly deemed as the bad guys."
"I was but then a certain event changed me so I will have to refuse your offer. Plus, why in the world I would join the ones who had stolen my crew's cars in the first place?"
"Whatever. Suit yourself. Take this device by the way. It's the route for this race."
The racer then tossed the device to the Mohawker leader before he got inside his Ford GT. The Mohawker leader caught it, looked at the route and then got inside his S2000 as he starts his engine and revs it.
"Let's do it baby. For my crew and Osaka in general." The Mohawker leader thought as he revs his engine, waiting to start the race.
Meanwhile on the bad guys side, the woman racer said:
"I would love to drive the cars of those so called heroes. They seem to be really modified and fast."
"First we must win, then you can get your chance." Yamachiro said.
"Whoever can win this race will have a good start advantage." Another racer said
"We will win!" Another one proclaimed, "No questions asked."
"Let us see what happens." Yamachiro said in which the others nodded .
Pretty soon, the flag bearer came between the cars and proclaimed:
"Racers! Are you ready?!"
Both of the cars revs.
"Then 3...2...1..." The flag bearer counted down before saying, "GO!"
The Honda S2000 and the Ford GT then roared as it went between past the flag bearer and so the 1st race of the series of races has begun.
The Mohawker leader shifts his gear as he made attempts to pass the Ford GT but the GT is very fast as it made a buzz towards the the Honda S2000.
"Grrr." The Mohawker leader growled.
"Ha Ha! This Ford GT is legendary and you will never be able to pass it!" The racer laughed.
"We'll see about that!"
The Mohawker leader then pressed on to the accelerator and then drifted left when the GPS indicated them to do so.
"Nice moves but it ain't show you know. It's ride or get your ride taken away if your team lose." The racer thought.
Once again, the Honda S2000 made another attempt to pass him but again it failed and the racer laughed. Right and left they went but still the Mohawker leader is left puzzled because the Ford GT and the driver had been blocking all their attempts to pass him.
"He's good at not making people overtake him that's for sure." The Mohawker leader thought, "But still that doesn't justify it cause he's driving a stolen car and I'm not going to let some car thief racer win against me!"
The Mohawker leader then accelerated again. The Ford GT's driver saw it and just laughed.
"You fool. You do realize that it's hopeless now." The racer said as he shifts gears and turns left.
However, he shifted it in not a proper way and as a result, the Ford GT went on a drift that's too wide which shocked the driver.
"Nani?!" The driver asked in shock.
"How's my chance." The Mohawker leader said as he shifts gears and drifts in an awesome way.
And as a result, the S2000 finally passed the Ford GT and went on a ride.
"Whoo-Hoo!" The Mohawker leader cheered for himself before accelerating and disappearing.
"Kuso!" The driver growled as he recovers his Ford GT and starts to accelerate again.
But despite that, the Ford GT is still behind the S2000 and he tries to pass through but this time the Mohawker leader is giving him a taste of his own medicine.
"Damn it! Let me pass!" The racer growled.
"Ha! Maybe some other day." The Mohawker leader said, "But not tonight! After I clear this final corner, I will be victorious!"
The final corner is the sharp right turn in which the Mohawker leader shifts his gears and slides to clear the final corner so that it's only a straight left and he can accelerate forward to win for his team.
But then this happened...
While he is sliding the final corner, the car suddenly went on an oversteer, much to the Mohawker leader's shock. He tries to counter steer it but it was too much for the car to handle and it went on a spin while the Ford GT avoided it and calmly cleared the final corner.
"See you at the finish line!" The racer said before laughing as he took off.
"Wh...? What just happened?" The Mohawker leader thought as thousand of questions rang around his mind, "My car was clearing the corner and it spun around suddenly? That's very fishy."
Nevertheless, he recovered and cleared the corner and tried to accelerate to the finish line but it was too late as the Ford GT has taken the win.
Yamachiro's team high-fives the Ford GT driver as they take the first win.
"That was awesome!" Another racer said.
"Yeah. That was sweet." The 3rd racer said.
"Thanks guys. Looks like we take the 1st win." The Ford GT driver said.
"Indeed." Yamachiro said, "If we win 2 more times, it will be a straight win for us."
Meanwhile on Yakito's team, the Mohawker leader is trying to check his car as to what went wrong.
"Ai. You had to screw up at the last corner mate." Zen groaned while the Mohawker leader's dog whimpered.
"But that's not possible! My car was perfect when I cornered it." The Mohawker leader said before asking, "So what went wrong?"
"Hey. I think I notice something blackish on one of your wheels." Motoki said.
They all went to check on the wheel Motoki pointed out and there they discovered that some type of oil is on the wheel as Yakito soon notices the oil trails on the track.
"Did your car spill some oil when you were racing?" Zen asked.
"Absolutely not!" The Mohawker leader said fiercely, "My car was in perfect condition!"
"I think I'm starting to get that picture now." Yakito said, "The car must have slipped when you were sliding on that corner. Now connect the dots."
They all did so and then when it clicked, their anger is on the rise.
"Mate. You have been cheated." Zen said in which the Mohawker leader is furious about it.
"Exactly. There's no way an oil spill would come out so suddenly when you guys were entering the last corner." Motoki said, "To think that these guys would stoop so low and do whatever it takes to win."
"Why those bastards!" The Mohawker leader growled in rage as well his dog, "I'm gonna..."
"No wait." Ryoko said as he steps him, "Trying to call them cheats right now won't led to any good since you don't have any proof that some associates from their group poured some oil so that he can win the race rather than you even though we know that they will pull up some dirty tricks at some point."
"But..."
"Take it easy. I understand why you are upset but it's not over yet and it was only the 1st race and now thanks to what we discovered and what we concluded which is the possibility, these guys wouldn't know what's coming for them."
"I'm assuming that you want to race next right?" Yakito asked in which Ryoko nodded and smiled.
"Wish me luck brother."
"Most certainly so."
"For Blackstars!" Zen said as he raised his fist up in which Ryoko did the same.
"We are gonna get back our crew's lost cars and we must win to do that!" Ryoko said in which Zen and others nodded.
After that, Ryoko then left to meet his opponent.
"Your brother seems surprisingly calm about it even though we all knew just now that our team had been cheated in the 1st race." Motoki said, "He really must have been planning for something in advance."
"Yeah. He's kind of a cool older brother who's kinda silent but you know that he always has your back and whom you love to hang out with." Yakito said.
"Yeah..."
It didn't take long, however, for Yakito to notice her expression, her different tone of her voice and something pinkish coming out from her cheeks. Pretty soon, Zen, the Mohawker leader and his dog also noticed it as well. Then they looked at each other, smiled and nodded.
"What?" Motoki asked in confusion.
"Nothing." Yakito, Zen and the Mohawker leader quickly said while the Mohawker leader's dog rolled out his tongue in which question marks are appearing around her head. Then they all turned to see what's happening to Ryoko.
Ryoko is currently facing his opponent who is a middle aged guy with a normal body but he happens to have a scar on his forehead.
"So it's the elder brother of the Taichi brothers I see." His opponent smirked before asking, "Ready to lose and hand your team a 2nd straight loss?"
"I don't have time for confrontation and jokes." Ryoko said in a cool and cold way, "Hand me the GPS and let's race."
"Hmph. Straight to the point huh? I like that attitude. Let's race indeed."
And so his opponent tossed the mobile up to Ryoko, who caught it and looked at the GPS before he got inside his Black Supra JZA80 which got a lightened body, a dragon vinyl and a whole new performance modifications. He then drives to the starting line up before his opponent does the same thing with his Ferrari F40.
"May the best racer wins." The opponent smiled and smirked before he pulled up his car window.
"The best racer who's gonna win is the one that never cheats." Ryoko said to himself, "I worked hard for this race. Let's do it Supra."
As both of them are revving their engines, the woman racer from the Yamachiro's team asked:
"Anything wrong sir?"
"No. Nothing." Yamachiro said but he could feel something wrong as his legs are shaking.
"Brother." Yakito thought a bit.
Pretty soon, the flag bearer came between the cars and proclaimed:
"Racers! Are you ready?!"
Both of the cars revs.
"Then 3...2...1..." The flag bearer counted down before saying, "GO!"
The Supra JZA80 and the Ferrari F40 then roared as it went between past the flag bearer and so the 2nd race has begun.
Ryoko took a quick glance at the Ferrari next to him and shifted gears before drifting to a left turn to a larger street.
"Victory will be mine!" proclaimed the Ferrari F40 driver.
Ryoko didn't say anything as he focused on the race. His Toyota Supra is racing like a dragon and somehow, the Ferrari F40 driver is starting to get tense when he looks at the mirror to see Ryoko's Supra behind him.
Then the GPS indicated to turn right into a back alley in which both cars did so but the rear tires of the Ferrari F40 started to fishtail and the rear bumper hit a parked car letting sparks in the air. This gave Ryoko the opportunity to pass him and he did.
"Kuso! You ain't passing me in that race and win!" shouted the Ferrari F40 driver.
But as the F40 driver is trying to catch up with the Supra, Ryoko took advantage of the Supra's rear wheel drive and the limited slip differential and drifted around some corners which shocked the F40 driver.
"What the...? I thought that the Supra is only good at straight line because of being a front heavy engine or he might have modified it and it all became just a lie?" The Ferrari F40 driver asked himself in shock before shaking his head and proclaiming, "Na! I can't lose!"
After two city blocks there, the GPS indicated that a left turn was coming closer to which Ryoko made a quick drift of it but the F40 driver played dirty and clipped his bumper and made Ryoko lose control and spun out in a 360 making her come to a complete stop.
"See you at the finish line!" the Ferrari F40 driver laughed.
"So that's how you wanna do it huh?" Ryoko asked by himself.
He took a quick glance at the GPS and noticed a back alley that ran parallel to the main road and then there was a shortcut. Without saying anything, he gunned the engine and shifted to first gear as Ryoko raced towards the alley.
Meanwhile the Ferrari F40 driver is singing praises to himself as he goes left and right around the corners.
"We are gonna win again! We are gonna win again!" The Ferrari F40 driver sang as he turned left.
Meanwhile, Ryoko stepped on the accelerator and cleared the first block and entered the shortcut.
"Recalculating route towards destination." said the GPS device.
Ryoko turned right and straight ahead is the main road. He pressed his accelerator to gain a higher speed to get to that main road.
The Ferrari F40 was passing by when suddenly...
"What the...?!" The Ferrari F40 driver gasped as he severs to ensure that it doesn't get hit.
Then he noticed the Supra had caught up with him with a surprise drift, in a slow Matrix style motion, which is more like a jump scare to the F40 driver.
"NANI?! How?!" The Ferrari F40 driver asked in shock.
"Surprise!" Ryoko couldn't help but smirk before asking, "What's up?"
"I WON'T LOSE! RAHHHHH!"
The Ferrari F40 charged towards the Supra but there was a right turn in which the F40 driver braked too late and crashed.
"Looks like someone is going to pay a huge bill." Ryoko couldn't help but chuckle a bit as the last left turn approaches.
But then Ryoko had other plans as soon as he noticed something. Rather than turning left fully, he turned left slightly and then turned his lights on fully to see two men who were about to throw oil down at the street. The men gasped. In a slow motion, Ryoko quickly took his phone and pictured them without the flash since the lights are strong enough to make them visible.
"What the...?!" The man gasped.
"Jump!" Another man shouted as they did so, only for the oil to fly around and land on his head.
"Bingo." Ryoko thought as he looks at the picture being taken before he accelerates it to the finish line in which everyone inside the building cheered as well as Yakito's team.
Few minutes later:
"Wow mate! You really nailed that F40 hard." Zen said.
"Yeah but he hit my car though as you guys can see." Ryoko said.
"I could see it." Motoki said as she sees the rear side of the black Supra damaged a bit.
"Well at least it's worth it cause I won."
"Thanks brother. We'll make sure your efforts won't go in waste." Yakito said.
"It's a team effort bro. We are going to save Osaka together right guys?"
"Yeah!" Yakito's team all cheered.
"And not only that, I got this."
Ryoko then showed the photo he caught to them in which they are all in shock.
"Those cheats." Zen growled.
"I had a feeling that this is how they made you lose right?" Motoki asked in which the Mohawker leader nodded, "They are really willing to go to low lengths to make us lose."
"Why I'm gonna..." The Mohawker leader proceeds to storm towards them but...
"Easy there. We know what they can be capable of doing but they will definitely change their strategy if they see that we discovered their cheating." Ryoko said as he sends the photo to Yakito's mobile.
"Yeah. It's better if we keep quite about this cause we will do something about them later." Yakito said as he sends the photo to someone which will be revealed later.
"Fine." The Mohawker leader sighed.
"After all, despite that cheat, he still won and this bump is nothing compared to what happened to the F40." Zen laughed as he points out the damaged F40 in which the front sideways is completely smashed.
Yep. Meanwhile on the Yamachiro's team, they inspected the damaged F40 before looking at the driver in which the woman racer asked:
"Really?"
"But...but...that older Taichi bro is a freak!" The F40 driver tried to defend himself, "He literally came out of nowhere and surprised me."
"Yeah right. Now if we lose for real, not only we are going to lose everything but we are going to have to pay for the damages of the stolen cars." The Ford GT driver groaned.
"You might have thought of some other strategies." The Bugatti Veyron driver said.
"Easy there people." Yamachiro said sternly, "I must admit that Yakito's older brother is really something but we are not done yet. 3 wins and we will be victorious!"
The other drivers nodded and stamped their authority on it as they are very determined.
The two teams are discussing what to do next as they are now locked on 1-1.
"Mate. Now that we are back on track, if we can beat them two more times, we will all be safe from their wrath." Zen said.
"Don't think too early about it Zen." Yakito said, "There's the Dodge Viper and that Bugatti Veyron we need to worry about but I do believe that we can pull it through as long as we all remember that we are doing this to save Osaka and all around the world even though this means pushing our cars to the limit."
Zen and others nodded as they looked at the team of Yamachiro, who are discussing something.
Meanwhile, the flag bearer of these series of racers is in an exciting mood as he is typing some message on his phone before sending it to someone.
*Soon the headlights are off.*
Me: Well that's the end of the 62nd chapter.
Yakito: So it's 1-1. This is going to get tense.
Me: You seem to be worried about something.
Yakito: I'm worried about that Bugatti Veyron. If the race turns out to be full of straights, then whoever will be racing him is probably going to get screwed.
Me: Don't let that get through your head. We will see what happens in the next chapter. Anything can happen.
Yakito: Like I said. The fate is in your hands mister.
Me: Oh Yeah?
Yakito: Yeah!
*We then stared at each other for a while before both of us laughed again.*
Me: Anyway, the other races will come in the next chapter which will be coming up within a week or a week and half as always so don't miss it out!
Yakito: And until then, please review and like this and his other stories as well as following and favouriting him.
Me: Indeed so, till the next chapter comes, see you soon so...
Yakito: Sayonara!
Me: Farewell!
*The Supra's engines then roars again as we wave our hands.*
