Chapter Five

It was the beginning of a clear day in Vale, and Isaac was putting his and Mia's bags in the back of his Eurovan, since they were going to start their drive down to Tolbi that morning. The whole gang was coming along, as many as they could fit in the van. Garet and Jenna walked over to the van, and Garet put their bags into the trunk. Ivan came over shortly afterward, and Isaac looked at him in a strange manner,

'One bag? Where is Sheba?'

'Sheba? I am unsure, I think she left to see her father. He is down in Lalivero, I believe. That is where I first met Sheba, but perhaps he moved. I don't really know.'

'All right, I was only asking. I believe Piers and Alex will be here shortly, and Jenna where is your brother?'

Jenna shrugged,

'I think he is driving by himself, he bought himself a new car recently.'

Garet looked to Jenna,

'He's going in the Neon? Cool, I'm going with him, blasting some 50 cent from the sound system!'

'Calm yourself, Garet,' Piers said, as he walked over, carrying his bag over his shoulder.

'Why should I? Felix is going to driving mad fast, and with the system blasting, its gonna be great!'

Piers shrugged, he wasn't too interested about cars and sound systems, he was going to sleep. Alex appeared next to Piers, and Piers, dropped his bag and it landed on his foot.

'Darn it, Alex,' he said, hopping with pain,' why do you have to do that every time?'

'Because... I'm lazy.'

'I'll make you pay for that one,' Piers said, who stopped hopping, and took from his pocket a pair of bronze knuckles.

Isaac ran between them,

'Peace, friends, we are a team; the Valian Adepts! And we are going to win that prize of 1 billion coins!'

'Uh, Isaac,' Felix said, pulling up in his black Dodge Neon SRT-4,' the cash prize is one trillion. Garet read it wrong.'

'Well, the more the merrier,' Isaac said.

Garet was starring at Felix's shining new car,

'Can I go with you, Felix?'

'I suppose. You want to?'

'Sure!'

Isaac got into his Eurovan and as soon as everyone got inside, the rear tires squealed and he was gone, black tires treads where he was.

'Burnout? I can do that too,' Felix said to Garet, as the back tires spun and he ripped out of Vale.

Felix shifted like a pro as they got to a casual driving speed of 120 miles per hour, and past Isaac hunkering Eurovan, which was staggering at 70 miles per hour. Isaac honked as Felix tore past them, ready for the lights and shows of Tolbi.

'Why are you driving that?' Wes asked Top Gear, who sat inside of his silver Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren inside the IRN parking garage.
'Because, I felt like it. Why do you ask?'

'I don't know; you usually drive the STi.'

'Yeah, I know. Rolf told me that all the cars have to be above a certain price range. The STi is only like thirty something. The McLaren is thirty five hundred thousand something, so I choose that today. Do you have the Le Mans?'

'Yeah. I think Rolf's taking the RS6, or maybe it's the Murcielago, I don't really know.'

'Rolf learned standard?'

'No, the new Murcielago can come in automatic. Cool, eh?'

'I suppose, I know manual because I lived in England for a while, so I needed to know manual to drive something good.'

Fuer Michael Montego walked over,

'Hey Wes, Top Gear.'

'Hey, Montego, how's it going?' Wes asked.

'Fine, guess what I'm driving today?'

'What?'

'Porsche Carrera GT.'

'What?!' Top Gear shouted, 'how did you ever get one of them?'

'Don't question the wealthy class, Top Gear, I have my ways.'

Rolf appeared and with him was Reamus and Fulredy. Everyone stopped talking and turned to Rolf, whom they expected to give them some news about the current situation.

'Guys,' Rolf began,' we have to appear there in style, so I wanted to ask what everyone was driving there? Wes, you are bringing the Le Mans Quattro, correct?'

Wes nodded.

'Good, and Top Gear, I see you have the SLR McLaren, a fine choice. You probably have the most powerful car here with your 5.5L supercharged V8, producing 617 horsepower. Reamus here, is bringing his Bentley Continental GT: 552 horsepower, turbocharged W12. Meaning it has 12 cylinders in the space that normally can hold 8 cylinders. Pretty amazing car, and very luxurious. Fulredy of course, brought his Aston Martin V12 Vanquish. He doesn't really drive anything else. Montego is driving his newest purchase, a Porsche Carrera GT, and we all know the stats on that beast. 5.7L 605 horsepower V10, producing a top speed of 205 miles per hour. I am driving my personal Audi RS6 to lead this team to Tolbi.'

'What about Faran,' Top Gear asked, 'The Hummer?'

'No...,' Faran said, as he drove up in his vehicle.

Rolf looked closely, as everyone did.

'Is that a Lotus?' Rolf asked.

'Espirit.'

Wes chuckled slightly,

'Espirit?'

'Don't laugh,' Rolf said,' the Lotus Espirit has the status of a super car, it reached the speed of 178 in 1997. Both of our cars are usually electronically governed not to go over 155 miles per hour, so he could actually go faster than us. It is also powered by a 3.5L 350 horsepower twin turbocharged V8. See, turbos help a lot.'

'Whoa... whoa, I didn't know that much, Rolf,' Wes put his hands up.

'Hey guys, let's go,' Top Gear said.

'You wanna go?' Wes asked.

'I wanna go,' Rolf said.

'You wanna go? 'Cause I wanna go,' Faran said.

'You wanna go,' Reamus said,' because I too wanna go.'

'Shut up,' Fuer Michael said.

He was already in his Porsche and with the engine going, he sped out into the deserted streets.

'Hey, wait! Let's go, Wes,' Rolf said. He was in his RS6, while Wes got inside his Le Mans Quattro. They too sped off into the deserted streets.

One by one, the Espirit rocketed out of the parking garage, followed by the Vanquish and the Continental GT. Top Gear sat in his Benz silently,

'I'll give them a head start.'

Top Gear floored it, and the wheels squealed a second before the car blasted our of the garage, the superchargers setting off early on, boasting him even faster down the roads to Tolbi.

Several days later... Isaac was casually driving, they were making it closer to Tolbi every day. He looked in his rear view mirror when he saw a silvery blur. It was approaching extremely fast, and he also heard a siren, this man was being pursued by the police.

'Darned speeders,' Isaac grumbled as he pulled over.

It was good he did, since as soon as he pulled over, the Benz shot past him, followed closely by a Porsche, and than the Le Mans. After him was the RS6 which was neck and neck with the Continental and the Espirit. At the end of the line was the Vanquish, and several speeds lower was the police cars. Masses of police cars were following them, but none seemed to be able to keep up.

'Great...,' Isaac said,' wonder what their up to?'

Felix was not too far ahead of Isaac, and he and Garet were rapping to 50 cent in their car, when their car was nearly run off the road as the Benz rocketed past. The Porsche and Benz could not be caught by Wes, as his Audi could not reach the speeds that those two cars could. He had to settle for third when they reached Tolbi, as long as Rolf, Reamus and Faran didn't cat up with him. Fulredy was just buying time, Wes could feel it.

'What the bloody hell!' Felix yelled as the cars sped past him, appearing only as a blur.

If all the teams were appearing like this, this tournament would be something else, Felix thought. I need that money so I can buy a formula one car and beat those rich punks...
