Hey ppl,

Weeks have now passed since the infamous incident of the mystery 350z on Akina. Project D is now on the verge of gaining legendary status even though they have only a handful of races under their belt. Ryosuke has been relentless in the training of his 4 prodigies while Akira herself has been just as relentless on trying to get Ryosuke. The others however have just concentrated on nothing other than improving themselves not to mention their vehicles.

It was then when Ryosuke announced that he has decided on a date for their next challenge... a race against team streetkings. At this every moment everyone's eyes lit up as they simultaneously turned their head to look at Akira…It would be the first time any of them would be seeing her perform in an actual race. "The race format have changed by the way……the races will now be held in a format of 3 against 3 and for this race I have decided that Akira, Nakazato and Takumi will be racing". "What about Keisuke, Isn't he more suited than me right now?" asked Nakazato. "Kei might be faster but right now I believe you would be able to have a better run on the pass. A 4wd will give u an edge in the corners especially on a twisty track like Tarago Pass. Both the 350z and Trueno are relatively smaller in size which explains my other driver selections. Now enough of the talk…go and start practicing."

"This is my chance to prove to everyone especially to Keisuke that I'm just as deserving as he is" thought Nakazato as he sped up on the straight, realizing that he had not been this excited for a race since his match with the yellow FD. "There is no way that I am ever going to lose to anyone ever again."

The night of the race finally came and the spectators started filling up the car parks around the pass. The atmosphere was as tense as it could be. The debut race of the complete Project D team, something not to be missed by anyone following the racing scene in Japan. The Tarago pass has been long known by everyone as the perfect street race track. Smooth and technical, a real racer's race.

The speedkings had been doing practice runs on the track for the past 3hours, warming up and showing off their skills. Their act was however brought to a halt at the arrival of the emperor's team, a team which had just humiliated the speedkings in an all out race just a mere month ago. This generated quite a buzz in the audience as the emperors rarely show up at races other than their own. "I guess we are early, Kyouichi is just too anxious about anything that has to do with Ryosuke, I mean he just isn't worth our ti……" Before he could finish the crowd erupted into a deafening cheer as four cars approached the starting line. A yellow FD followed by a Trueno, a Skyline and a 350Z…..

Yea I know it's a short chapter but I'll try to update chapters on a more regular basis now. Enjoy
