Doc - Tag: Finn, Shadow, Dusty

"Dusty will be in as soon as he is able." Doc assured her. He then called to Finn. "She wants Dusty to come in. Can you let him in or find a way for him to join us? I did assure her he could come in." Doc said.

He nudged Shadow in assurance. "Dusty will join us. But we need to get you looked at. Finn can get him in, so don't worry. Dusty will join us." The racecar said in a soothing manner.

Again, Doc nudged her forwards. "The longer we wait, the less chance we have for you to make a full recovery. We need to do this now!" His tone meant no room for argument, or so he hoped.

Looking ahead, Doc began to advance into the building as well, hoping Shadow was at least behind him. If she wasn't, he would have to drag her in, despite her protests, and that he didn't want to do. It might cause a panic attack again.

Blade - Tags: Miranda

Blade halted in his tracks as he heard the voice and felt the oil run cold in his pipes. His eyes widened, and his breath caught in his throat. He turned, backing up to do so, and rotated himself around to see Miranda... Miranda Lopez... the sister of... well...

Gulping, he stared at her, unable to speak, and completely caught off guard by her appearance here. "M... Miranda?" he asked, blinking. "What... what are you doing here?" he never thought he'd see her here, and hadn't been expecting it in the slightest! He blinked rapidly, wondering if this was just a vision but... it wasn't! She was here... here before him! Though... what she was doing in Rio... well he'd need to find that out! It was like finding anchorage after a storm, as the past few days had just been... one tempest after another... emotions all over the place... and he felt he needed something like this to finally just... settle himself a bit.

Oskar - Tags: Spray

Oskar frowned and raised his brows at this. "Huh... that's... quite the story. "So... we're after the Galac Stone... Herr Dusty's hometown is being threatened..." The German's eyes blazed at the thought of this, his frown deepening as he flashed back to the fire bombings... this was... the exact same as the Second World War. WHY did history repeat itself after such violent wars that SHOULD have ended things like this? "That's... dreadful Herr Spray. I have to say... I'm getting very... upset at this... it gets my oil boiling, as you might well imagine!" he said thickly, his voice harsh and choked. "My opinion is that we kill this sorry son of a b****!" he declared, his flaps bristling upwards here in annoyance. "But... since that doesn't seem possible just yet... we get this stone I guess... and see what he provides in terms of answers... he's no different than... another certain vehicle I'm familiar with from my past... well multiple vehicles I should say!" The scowl on his face was evident about how he felt regarding this kind of threat of force. "So... what's YOUR opinion on it?" he asked, glancing over at Spray now, a fierce determination blazing in his eyes, though it wasn't directed at Spray.

Dusty and Finn - Tags: Shadow, Doc

Finn halted here, applying his brakes.

"I'm still up here Shadow." Dusty radioed down to her. "I can't... land though..." He pointed out. "Unless I do it on the streets, but they're busy. I mean... there's a helipad but... I'm not... a chopper!" he pointed out to her here.

"Uh... well there's... there's a deployable air strip we have in the building but... it would... really give this place away. It's usually used only for emergencies." Finn responded, backing up so he could face Shadow. "How... badly do you need him?" he asked, looking to Shadow.

"Wait! I got it!" Dusty said, seeing a clear stretch of road down below on the next street over. It would be totally illegal to land like that but... well he had an opening so may as well take it! He extended his gear, buzzing the roofs of cars as he came in lower now... lining himself up and getting lower... lower... and finally touching down with smoke and his brakes screeching. "Whoooooaaaa!" he nearly collided with a car, almost rear-ending her, but stopped with a jolt just in time. "Oh! Sorry!" he said, quickly darting down the street that led to the other side of the CHROME building, and rounded the corner, huffing as he hurried to catch up with Shadow. "OK! I'm here! Sorry! Nearly... crashed! I guess I shouldn't do that again, huh?" he asked, blushing furiously here.

Miles - Tags: Calypso

Miles smiled at her initial words... the old... fun loving Miles... yes... where did he go? He couldn't suppress his glee at her words, and his smile got wider as he looked over at her. "Full of adventure, eh? I certainly was that, wasn't I?" he asked, chuckling here as he remembered his attempt to circumnavigate the globe. He certainly had a laugh at this, and how silly he looked coming out of that jungle but... then again... she had stopped... something else was up. He smiled slightly as she claimed to know the real Miles Axlerod. His face fell though as she mentioned it was a dark side the media had plastered everywhere. That was... true to an extent... but also false in many ways... and he knew it. Still... it was a very nice... gesture of hers... and true as well... she was judging him based on the whole picture... what she knew of him from back then... and generally... he hadn't changed TOO much since that time! He was still the same old Branford inside, and he knew that!

"You... you really..." He sniffed here, tears misting his eyes again. "You really do... know how to pick me up after all this." he confessed. "So many... others would never EVER venture to say something like that to me..." he stated to her matter-of-factly. "So..." he began here. "What were you hoping for?" he asked, curious at this. He hadn't ever thought she'd liked him liked him back then... maybe just a casual interest... but was there more?

Miranda - Tags: Blade

Miranda hopped on over to him, giving a gentle smile. It had been awhile since she had seen the helicopter. Years in fact. She couldn't recall the last time they had talked. Either way, for her, it was a pleasant surprise.

"Here on vacation." she answered. "Rio seemed like a good place to relax from school work so... here I am." She got a curious look in her eyes. "How about yourself? What brings you to Rio? I thought you'd be staying up at Piston Peak full time because of your job."

Spray - Oskar

"In my opinion, this guy is someone we have to watch out for. Who knows what he can do?" Spray hissed, his eyes hardening. "I can only guess as to what he wants this stone for, but I have a feeling they'd be way off. So I'm not even going to attempt to guess."

He turned back to the German. "I just hope that we can avoid this... whatever he's got planned."

He then lowered his voice and muttered a bit. "Especially since my home went downhill all those years ago..." He felt that Oskar hadn't heard him though, or so he hoped.

Doc - Tag: Finn, Shadow, Dusty

"Shadow, we can go now." Doc said to her as he nudged her again. "Dusty's here, so we can get you looked at now."

Doc then looked at Finn. "Let's just say it's best if a patient like her has someone they care about close by. It makes the exam go much smoother for both the doctor and patient alike. The last thing I need right now is a very squirmy and agitated Shadow, for both her sake and mine. You don't want to know how many times I have been lashed out at because of a loved one not being in the room." Doc added this last part under his breath.

He knew it was more than true, as he had been nearly attacked at least once by cars agitated by the idea of an exam without a loved one nearby.

(Just letting you guys know that if anyone else wants to join the RP and hasn't created an account here yet, they can create an intro thread in Introductions to get the first post approval out of the way. After that you can post wherever and it will pop up immediately :3

Is where anywhere I can hop on in? I'm at a lost on what to post.

We could also make a discussion thread so we don't clog up the rp with posts like this where users have no idea what to do lol. It'd also be easier to share ideas.)

[ShadowWolfCelica]

Shadow: Dusty, Doc, Finn

The sound of Dusty landed caused her to have her heart in her mouth for just a few moments.... before finally seeing him come toward her. She breathed out here, relieved he had landed, and smiled a little here even, though slight scolding him. "No you shouldnt.... i want you alive!" She said here, though smiled gently at him again before turning to Doc once more. "Yes... we should go now...." she said here, taking a deep breath here, leaning against the plane beside her. She looked to the building ahead, knowing that what lay inside was more one of her fears... but she had to do this now. No backing out now that Doc knew. She cleared her throat and drove forward here, a slow speed, but enough to catch up with everyone. She flicked her eyes round at the inside, taking in where she presumed everything was if this was anything like the CHROME in Britain.

"Finn.... I think.... I think Leland knew you know... about my history aswell. He never said anything.... but he witnessed the attack on me made by my cousins before I joined CHROME..... surely he must have known?" She asked here, slipping back beside Dusty. She turned to him quickly, a sudden panic in her eyes. "Dusty... I'm gonna possibly need you to distract me...." she said here, her mind seemingly switching from subject to subject, apparently still effected by her earlier panic.


Calypso: Miles

"Well of course I see you that way.... you never changed in my eyes and only did what you thought best... you can't beat a car down for that" she responded, still fondly thinking of their previous memories. She sighed a little, though felt herself heat up at his last question. "What was I hoping? I.... well...." she faded off, lost for words before clearing her throat. "Well I always used to fancy that... you'd travel around and then.... come back and take me to all the best places you'd wanted to.... or maybe I would travel with you....." she said here more quietly, clearing her throat again.

"It was always a silly little dream.... Something that faded long ago when I ran away. Something I couldn't ever face anyone over. I... always feared seeing your face you know. When you found out. I didn't ever think you'd take it well...."

[Dusty Crophopper]

((I've thought about a discussion thread, but we don't really have much to discuss I've noticed... maybe I'll start one, but I'm a little too busy to be bothered right now. Still, you can jump in wherever... it's just down time for us all now. ))

Blade - Tags: Miranda

Blade nodded as he smiled at her, his front bobbing with the words she spoke. "Ahhh right... relaxing from school work. Forgot you were still doing that!" he said, giving her a shy smile. He froze as she asked why he was in Rio though, and he looked from left to right. "Uh... Miranda? Mind if we... talk as we go?" he asked, nodding towards the beach now. "It's... kind of a long story." he said, turning and resuming his route. "So..." he began. "You've heard about those attacks throughout the world, right?" he asked her. "I was at Propwash Junction for an airshow when it was attacked three days ago. I... well I survived... injured but I survived." He winced as he thought of the shrapnel he'd taken in his side from that.

"So... uh... well this gonna sound crazy but... some of us... Dusty included, and uh... a friend of mine, had visions... visions of... a car. He was mocking us... using our deceased loved ones to taunt us... that kind of thing." the chopper explained. "So uh... these spy guys were at Propwash during the attack... they had suspected it would take place, and helped us fight the terrorists off... we found out they had gathered HERE before the attack and I... well I joined up. I felt like... well you've probably felt it too, right?" he asked, the sand suddenly under his wheels as they reached the beach now. The waves broke ahead of them, and he paused here. "This is... this is a fight for our world! For our way of life! I wanted... to contribute! So we learned that this weapons manufacturer... Hiram Carew, was behind the attacks, AND that he was the one from the visions! We tried to infiltrate his factory today but... he was expecting us." Blade sighed. "He wants us to find this thing called the Galac Stone... in Thailand no less! So uh... yeah I'm just... heading to the beach to try and... sort my thoughts out. It sounds crazy I know but... you know I wouldn't lie to you, right?" he asked hopefully, turning to half-face her here.

Finn and Dusty - Tags: Shadow, Doc

"Let's go." Finn murmured, nodding as he led the way into a wall that suddenly flipped up for them now. Auto-turrets stood down as they scanned Finn's presence, and he moved ahead of the group, not speeding up so everyone could keep pace. They suddenly descended now, heading down a tunnel towards the heart of the facility, which was far below them. The deeper they went, the darker it got, Finn's headlights snapping on until finally, they arrived in another garage area, this one filled with computers. "Here we are!" the Faultless declared. "Medical is just up ahead." He said, nodding as he once more lead the way. It was where he had led Aeris earlier, and soon, they were amid a bank of computers with agents all around, monitoring them, speaking on phones, and looking about them.

"Whoa!" Dusty exclaimed as he looked about him. "This is... pretty cool!" he said, smiling widely.

"Yes well... any bay you want!" Finn exclaimed, as various medical bays were set up for cars with full diagnostics.

"Hey..." Dusty smiled at Shadow here. "You'll do fine, OK?" He nodded at one of the bays, giving her a reassuring look.

Finn sighed at the mention of Leland. "He's dead Shadow..." he said, perhaps somewhat coldly. "Why is that relevant if he knew about you or not?" Finn still harbored pain over Leland's death, and he really didn't feel like talking about irrelevant facts right now.

"Distract you?" Dusty asked. "Like what? Talk to you or something?" he inquired, wondering about this.

Oskar - Tags: Spray

"Wait... you have a guess? What is it, Her Spray?" the Komet asked curiously. "And well avoiding it is necessary, ja." He nodded sagely here, agreeing with Spray fully. But Oskar had sharp hearing, and his front perked up at hearing this and he turned to looked towards Spray. "What did you say? Your home went... downhill?" Oskar raised a brow here at this, a deeply contemplative look crossing his features. "Where... did you say you were from again Herr Spray? There's not many places in the US that have gone downhill... except maybe Detroit." the small plane chuckled here, as he didn't live terribly far from Detroit.

Miles - Tags: Calypso

"When I found out... about you wanting me to take you to places?" he asked, a smile creeping across his face here. "Heh... well I was going to ask... but well... my plans started interfering with my life... and I didn't really want... to burden... myself." he said here. "Or risk getting found out, not that you'd be a burden!" he chuckled nervously, though still smiled. "But why wouldn't I take it well? I... I WOULD have taken you it's just you... never approached me before so I wasn't... certain where I stood with you." he informed her here. "Still it's... good to know you... you felt that way about me." he said, smiling with his teeth.

Doc - Tag: Finn, Shadow, Dusty

Doc moved to what was numbered Bay 1, his blue eyes taking in the medical equipment as he looked around. "Anesthetics, oxygen, engine-rate monitors, this place is well-equipped. This is perfect." He said as he looked around a bit more before he nodded to Shadow. "Get in."

As he got some tools out, Doc looked at her with one eye. "I'll need you to pop your hood so I can do a check on how well your engine is wired. I said this would be thorough, and I mean it." Doc wasn't saying it, but it would also reveal what parts were taken and how well the connections in her body were done. If he was right, and he hoped he wasn't, then this would be a potential minefield of bad memories he wanted to stay out of. Turning to face her, Doc sighed a bit hesitantly. "I don't want to mention this, but if things are bad, I may need to rework the connections, and that will require surgery. I will put you under an anesthetic though, so you won't feel a thing."

Deep down, Doc was feeling nervous about what he was doing. Still, Shadow did need to be looked over, and he wasn't about to back out now. He needed to help her, and by fixing what damages were left from her past on the physical scale, he might help her begin to move on somewhat. A slight chuckle escaped him. He was already growing attached to this car, and in a paternal way like he did with Lightning. At least, he hoped he was. If anything, Shadow needed someone in her life she could look to. The midnight blue racecar just hoped he could fill that role if Shadow was willing to let him.

Miranda - Tags: Blade

Miranda took a moment, letting everything Blade had said sink in.

"Yes I've heard of the attacks, but goodness I didn't know you got caught in them." She gave a worried look. "You poor thing... But you were doing the right thing wanting to help. I understand that... just been crazy all around the world as of late." She sighed, sinking her landing gear in the sand a little. "Sorry that's all happened to you, as if enough bad things haven't already happened... and Blade." She smiled a little. "I know you would never lie to me. You've always been honest. Even back then."
