(Jeez Finn calm yourself XD)

Aeris smiled widely as Finn rambled happily while hugging him, though the moment was short-lived as Shadow screeched to a halt and started freaking out. He frowned a little, wondering who exactly this 'Agent Carlisle' dude was. Shadow seemed pretty disturbed by the fact that the car was here. The little car decided to put his two cents, "maybe he does have a reason? Even the best cars and planes can turn dark... he could have been tempted by something and didn't realize until he was in too deep... or being controlled... but those are just guesses."

Shadow Carlisle: Tags Aeris, Finn

Shadow looked to Aeris for a moment. "He was already dark...... he's.... with the public now though......" She faltered a little, having caught the look Finn had given her. She stopped talking for a moment, remembering her own past and knowing her family were around now, and that meant big trouble for her. She watched Finn for a moment, weighing up her information in her head, before reversing back a little.

"I.... I have nothing. I don't have any information" She spoke, looking to the floor here, feeling like the young agent that started in the field some years ago. "I'm gonna.... perhaps look around some more" She stated here, driving away from the group and looking over some of the deceased cars. She made her way some distance away, setting about IDing some of the bodies, filling her database, her own mind thinking of plans and ideas to drag the other Carlisle away from the public domain, where he was most dangerous.

'Hugh' - Tag: Shadow, Finn

Looking back, Hugh saw what appeared to be a small conversation between three cars, one of whom was the famed Finn McMissile. He had heard of him from...He shook his front. Right now he was just Hugh Hornet, a small town doctor! He couldn't reveal himself yet! Curious though, he drove over, leaving the helicopter behind. His injuries were minor anyway. They could be handled by the town's mechanic. Looking back, he made sure to say that. "You can get treated by the town mechanic. All that is needed is a patch up job." With that, he made his way over to where the spies were talking.

The female car seemed to be edgy, he noted as he observed her and her work. Hugh made a mental note to be wary of her. She seemed to be hiding something, and he didn't like that one bit. Looking around, he was even more surprised though that no one had caught sight of his license plate, which was supposed to belong to a dead car. It was after a battle, and no one was bothering to check up on that. He grunted once. Even the FBI should know to run a plate check if someone unknown came into such an area.

((Hugh has the license plate of a supposedly dead car, so that should at least give some form of distrust or suspicion as to who is really is or is working for. ))

"No.... no he was already dark... her entire family runs a criminal operation you see..." Finn explained to Aeris, having muttered the first part thoughtfully. "We'll... we'll need to look more into why he was doing this in the first place... joining a group that wasn't even related to him. As far as I know, the Carlisles keep a fairly tight family run 'business.'" he said here. "Good, let me know what you find out, Agent Shadow. Sorry I... I got a little... snappy. I just... he's my son after all... never... never expected to see him again." Finn motioned with his left wheel towards Aeris here.

As Shadow drove off, Finn turned back to his son. "Might I ask what you do for a living? What has my son made himself into these past years?" A smile crept onto the Aston Martin's features once more, "I'm sure by now you can guess what I do..." he trailed off here, not wanting to elaborate in such a public place.

Blade - Tags: Hugh, Otter

"Missile strike... it exploded nearby... peppered me..." Blade murmured, though the Hornet confirmed it wasn't serious. He then began to depart, much to Blade's confusion. "Uh but... the leaking... fluid?" he inquired, before the doctor told him he could get it patched up at the mechanic and continued driving off. "Uh... that was... odd..." Blade said, turning to Otter here. "And quick. Didn't seem like much of a doctor to me... did he to you?" he asked. "Anyway... we'd best find Dusty and I'd best find the mechanic... though I'm sure she's swamped with everyone else. I want to pitch your idea to him... see if he'd be OK with it. We can't just ignore this after all..." he stated firmly.

Dusty - Tags: Shadow

Dusty was helping a wounded car move towards the emergency workers when he saw Shadow start to move about the town again, apparently gathering information... or something. Dusty helped the car drive, as he had a bent front wheel from a missile explosion, and small wounds that cratered his body. "There... right there... they'll help you, OK?" he asked gently.

"Thanks... Dusty..." the car said, beginning to limp over to the ambulances.

"Sure... I... I'm sorry this happened..." the firefighter replied softly, guilt springing within him once more over how he felt this whole thing was his fault... he'd drawn the crowds after all... and he'd been the one they'd come to see... maybe he'd been the target too...

Not really knowing why, he found himself wandering back over towards Shadow now, lips pursed as he cleared his throat slightly. "Ahem... uh... so... I've been... helping out. Did you uh... did you have any further questions for me?" he wanted to know.

'Hugh' - Tag: Finn, Shadow

Looking around, 'Hugh' began to look over the remains of the attackers. His blue eyes narrowed as he saw a few riddled with bullet holes, and a few in pieces from missile explosions. From what he could see, the town had been attacked for some reason. Luckily, no one had been killed on the defender's side, he mused as he nudged one car's lifeless form. Glancing around, he made sure no one was looking as he tried to find out who this car was. 'Hugh' frowned at the lack of ID on the car's body. So much for finding out who this guy had been...

For such a small town, this was a bit much for attention. "Why would such a small town warrant such an attack?" He wondered aloud. He hoped his training would be enough to keep him alive during this mission...

Shadow Carlisle: Tags Dusty

Shadow hadn't responded to Finn as she drove away, deciding to keep out of the way and trying to see if there was anything else she could do. There was no point sharing information at this point. Not that it really mattered. She would think on what she knew on the Carlisle, and plan her next move on him. It was her that had to bring him down, to keep her family on edge of her. She was too busy trying to think of ways to win against him, when a voice brought her out of her thoughts. She was fazed for a moment, before she noticed Dusty. She instantly felt glad at his appearence, and smiled at him a little.

"Ah yes that's good..... it really doesn't look that pretty for some of the.... cars here. But uh.... yes, i had a couple more questions. I know you don't know who did this, cause we Don't either at this point but..... was there anyone in your town prior to the airshow that seemed suspicous or.... distant?" She asked him here, forgetting the car she was IDing. She drove toward him a little here , her gaze looking up to him.

The smaller hybrid shifted uneasily as Finn asked what he did for a living. "I... uh... wasn't really allowed to do anything." Aeris said, feeling embarrassed. "I've tried racing for years but..." he hesitated a good while before adding, "I... have some kind of medical problem. Nobody really knows what it is."

(I find it hilarious how Lightning literally poofed from existence xD)

Dusty - Tags: Shadow

Dusty stared at some dead cars in the distance... innocents caught in the crossfire. He thought he heard Shadow say something, and it took a moment for his brain to register what it was. "Huh?" he asked, looking over at her as he blinked. "Suspicious? Well... I... uh... yes actually!" he said, suddenly remembering something. "There was someone who was hanging around... I didn't see them myself... but they threw what was described to me as a flashbang grenade." Dusty told her now. "Maybe... they were watching us and were making a break for it to avoid discovery... I don't know; I only heard the sound... I didn't see them, or see where it was thrown from. I thought a firecracker had gone off at first in all honesty, and it was just someone being a yahoo, you know?" Dusty pointed out. "It was near the Fill N' Fly... but who knows if they're one of the dead attackers now or not?"

He bit his bottom lip, his body shaking once more as the day finally started to catch up with him. "Uh... I just... I'm sorry I'm... having trouble... coming to terms with all of this..." he told her softly, looking around him again. "I just can't... I can't see my home this way... nothing like this..." He closed his eyes, his body tense as he slumped forward, and started to softly cry. "Nothing like this has ever happened... I feel... I feel if only I wasn't famous... then... this town wouldn't be a target... and this never would've happened..." he whispered, appearing to try to sink into the ground here. That of course wasn't possible, but Dusty felt... incredible shame now at breaking down in front of her. He wanted to hide... to just vanish into his hanger and wish this day had never happened... but there was no escaping it... and the champion air racer was a sobbing mess now and completely exposed in a way that made him anxious and uncertain. "I know the only reason they attacked was because... I draw crowds... my fame does that..."

Finn - Tags: Aeris

Finn raised his brow at this, and frowned slightly. "A medical condition? Describe it. What happens? I'm no doctor or mechanic but... what exactly keeps you from racing?" He had to admit, he never saw his son as a racer but... he wasn't sure WHAT he could see his son doing in all honesty. He'd never had that chance cause he'd been stolen from him at such a young age... and Finn had killed off that part of himself and had resigned himself to thinking his son was dead. "I'll do whatever I can to ensure we figure this out and get you doing whatever you want to do. Is that... your passion? Racing?" he asked now, running his right tire on the ground in a slow circle as he looked from it to his son.

((Just letting everyone know that I have drop out of the RP for now. School's taking up a lot more of my life than it was even just a couple weeks ago, but if this RP is still going on come summer vacation, I'm gonna be back, so this isn't the last of me!))

Shadow listened to his description, making a note of the weapon used, thinking it could be used for reference. She didn't think many individuals would use that kind of grenade. "Well it's something we can use...." She said to him, shortly before he started to break down, seeing that the days events were finally catching up to him. She then abandoned her thoughts on the mission, feeling guilty for asking him more questions.

"Hey, hey hey..... it's ok....." She began, approaching him again and putting a tire on his pontoons. "Hey, don't cry, it'd not your fault, it's really not. These guys knew what they were doing and how they were gonna do it.... they used your show as an excuse, this is by NO means your fault, ok???" She told him urgently. "I know it's really touch seeing this. .... but.... i know the feeling, ok? I understand what your feeling..... come on, lets get you somewhere less...... public" She said gently to him, using more of a soothing tone. She looked around a bit, seeing some hangars some way off. "Hey. ..... are one of those yours?" She asked, tapping him with her tire slightly and looking around a bit, though returning her gaze back to him.

"Please don't cry....... it'll be ok.... i promise.... we'll get revenge. Well make them pay, I promise"
