"Here we go," Nulix muttered, looking at the mine field ahead. Nulix noticed that the sides of the track straight up in this area. "Time to fly," Nulix said, boosting his ship up the side of the track. Nulix flew off the rim off the track into the air, flying sideways over the mines. Nulix kept his ship afloat by using it's sky lifters for the two seconds he was allowed. Nulix smoothly sailed down towards the track, the mine field behind him...
Nulix grunted as he rammed his vehicle to the side, swerving along the edge, dodging the obstacle. There were many more to come. Nulix swerved back and forth, dodging obstacles on both sides, using the weight of each movement to keep balanced. Nulix looked ahead and saw a tight turn, "Gotta get this right," he muttered, going along the middle of the track, narrowly missing the last few objects. "Almost there," Nulix said, before slamming down on the left breaks only. The ship went sideways in a jolting motion just as it reached the turn. "Catch up Xane!" Nulix yelled, as his ship swerved smoothly through the tight turn...
The screen Wing was on went blank. Lexx silently stood up, stretching himself out. "What was that?" Asked a U.P.A. agent who was in the room. Lexx turned to the agent, "You think I know what the hell that was?! I need this to go through... I need the UO on my side." "And I thought Wing was the nice one," The agent commented. Lexx nodded, "Your telling me... maybe he'll need a little convincing..." "How so?" The agent asked. Lexx smiled, "I think maybe I should show him how bad things can get, and how quickly they can get that way... or maybe not. I don't want to lose my charm, right?" The agent nodded with a smile. "Alright, I'm going to go get something in the hick town, see ya man," Lexx said, putting a jacket on and making his way to the door. The agent glanced at the ground for a second, before looking at Lexx, on his way out the door. "There's been something bothering me..." The agent said slowly, "Something about this whole trip." "Whats that?" Lexx asked. The agent looked down again, "If I tell my Hairis... that we have the UO under his control, would I be lying?" "...No," Lexx replied. The agent paused, "If I tell him that, would I make it home?" "...Not on that night," Lexx said with a smile. "What is this trip for?" The agent asked. "What do you think?" Lexx replied. The agent swallowed, "I think... Sir, I think that you came here to hire bodyguards... no, assassins. To take care of the rest..." "Why would I want that?" Lexx asked. "The last man standing gets the gold," The agent said, "You claim to want this for the U.P.A. but we all know that's a lie. Your doing this for the cold sake of money. Your hitting them earlier than they would hit each other because they want to hurt you friend." "And is money not the purest form of a dream?" Lexx replied, before walking out the door. *** "Lets do this!" Nulix yelled, putting his helmet on...
"Oh please," Vecked replied, "I've got Enigma's opinion, not the truth to all life... Enigma knows Xardius has a rich history, he knows the outlines of Scourge, and he don't know squat about Kingdom Hearts..." Vecked smiled, "I realize... just how small we are, how small you people are, trying to control whatever you like, thinking that there is an out to every situation, that your immune, that rules are only man made... there are rules for everything. You can't breath in space, you can't live if your heart stops, and everyone dies." "No one can set the world on fire," Vecked said, "Lexx... Scourge, my Hairis Richards, all the others all try to put each other in a corner, but they can't... Scourge can't kill my Hairis right now, my Hairis can't kill Scourge." Vecked sighed, "Now I honestly think that Scourge is dangerous because he doesn't understand what I just told you, he thinks there are no rules... which is why I can't wait until he gets blown off the face of the world... I've never been these people. Never. No matter what it seems I've always known that I can't kill a man who's not in front of me." Vecked paused, letting his words sink in. After a moment of silence, Vecked broke into a smile. "So tell me," Vecked said, "Do we really think the same? Or are you as blind as every other god damn person with power?"
"You don't know me," Vecked replied, "Now get off my ship... don't screw with me today, alright? I'm not in the mood..." OOC: I have to go, see ya.
"We don't think alike," Vecked replied, "I can assume that with almost one hundred percent certainty. Who are you and what are you talking about?"
"I didn't asked to be saved, you did cause you wanted too," Vecked replied, "I don't owe you a thing... now that we've made that clear, who are you?"
Vecked woke up angrily, ready to kill the driver... *** Nulix drove the ship out of the garage onto the open road, "Where's the training track at?" He asked Xane or Xardius...
Nulix jumped into his gummi, revving up the engine. "The World Wide League has a limit for how long you can fly with your gummi. In the World League the limit of using the Gummi's Sky thrusters is four seconds," Nulix explained, "My ship was made for a professional league, it has pretty powerful sky thrusters but it could never fly, and definitely not go into space..." Nulix turned to Xardius and nodded, "Yeah... my eye's still kinda messed up, but I'm a better driver than anyone else in the League, I can drive even if I don't see things that good right now..."
"WE OWN THE NIGHT!" The U.P.A. agents yelled, landing around Wing until he was surrounded. Wing got ready to attack, until Niles ran out of the huge U.P.A. crowd, hands in the air. "Wait," Niles said, "We have a message for you." A few agents put a small table in front of Wing. Niles placed a small flat screen computer in front of Wing, after a second of static, Lexx's smiling face appeared on the screen. "Wing! Welcome!" Lexx said. Two agents pulled Vecked away while Lexx gave his opening lines. "I'm here to talk about your contract," Lexx explained, "The rest of the friends have already agreed to this... so let me tell you about it. Basically, it says that you are a partner of the U.P.A. Your not working for us, just getting orders from us. Plus, we are both after the Brotherhood so basically its just giving you your goals in a straight forward way." *** The two agents put Vecked in the back of the Gummi Ship. "Don't stop," The agent explained to the U.P.A. driver, "Not unless you need gas. Other than that, take him directly to the rest stop." "Yes sir," The driver said, starting the engine...
OOC: I'm out of here! AHAHAH!
Nulix nodded...
"I would love that," Nulix remarked, listening to Xardius with interest.
"I guess your right," Nulix muttered, wondering where Xane was... OOC: Cough cough, Pirate.
"On the ship?" Nulix asked, "Just adding a few things to adjust the handling... I, uh, also loosened the speed container a little bit, just an extra speed boost for the race... Hey man, what do you think about Lexx's deal? You think he means best?"
Nulix nodded, "Every race has it's bad apples. This league ain't the big league, they allow defensive equipment here. I know there will be more than a few cheaters in this type of race."
Nulix stood up and dusted himself off, "I can drive... back on Iceving I could beat everyone in the world league but Vecked, and they had some big people there."
"So Xardius," Nulix said, laying underneath his ship, making a few last minute tweaks to his ship before going in the training arena, "Can you drive man? I mean, I know you can drive, drive well, but can you... drive?"
"Nice ship, Xardius," Nulix commented to Xardius, as he walked towards his ship. A light blue and silver Unipod Altima, it wasn't a very well armed or well defended vehicle, but it was lite and fast.
Enigma's portal opened once more, U.P.A. agents running through it. "Search for portals, traces, portals the priority!" A still slightly dizzy Niles Skinnar ordered, as the troops set up machines on the slope. "We got a reading!" One troop yelled, as the machine opened a dozen portals. "How exact will this be?" Niles asked, looking at the portals, "And which is the right one?". The troop shrugged, "We think Wing closed the portals about a minute ago, so you should get in the general area... in one of them." Niles nodded, before jumping into a portal, the rest of the agents jumped into others.
