Ok, There is a house, yes, but it's a little harsh having one house for everyone. So, Alloway Grove is the name of the new estate in Terim, where all the good citizens (and the evil ones too, I suppose) can live. This RP is for everyone. it ties in with all the other RP's in this section of the guild. So. When you leave this, state, in one font or another 'going to _______' i.e: 'Going to the House' Hopefully we'll have a little modern day town going on soon enough. Feel free to make new threads for 'Tello's house.' or 'Sheena's house' or anybody, but this is the name of the road, k? Right then, I, as deputy Mayor of this....... place..... declare this new housing estate open -cuts tape- Eike looks left and right, eyes full of envy. -runs to the biggest house in the place. "Got dibs on this one, suckers!!!" Eike stepped in and laughed, "Wow, I'm evil." He laughed and found his clothes.

"Well that should be obvious then Eike... Ford GT, if it's easier to control... Of course I'd take it... How well do you know me Eike?" she laughed as she leant back. "Although, you're not a bad driver- I might just sit here, relax instead of panicking on the road.
What .... Where did you want to take the cars anyhow? The grove? 'Cause you should know by now... I'm not exactly a fan of racing down the strip or anything... Anything above 60 is kinda... Fast for me that is.. Unless you're driving."

Eike smiled and looked sideways to Bunny across the 'cabin' of the car, "No, I wouldn't do that to you. Besides, you'd end up losing Harley's car, and we can't have that. No. We need to take Harley's car back to her at the hospital. I just need you to take one of the cars up there, as I can't drive two, obviously." He looked back at the road. Ahead, a rather sharp corner approached rapidly, tapping the brake, Eike steered left into the corner, feeling the tyres slide ever so slightly, he smiled, knowing he was on the edge of the grip. Straightening up again, he lowered his eyes a bit. "There's no need to be scared of speed, Bunny, you just need to learn how to handle it. That just comes with time." Slowing down, Eike slipped off the freeway, down onto the road below. Turning right, he entered the shadow of the bridge, his eyes relaxing for a moment, grateful for the shade. Coming out the other side, Eike squinted for a moment before reaching above his head. Pulling out a blue set of sunglasses, he smiled and put them on. "They remembered my shades." He remarked. "Right, Bunny, if I set this car up so that it's safe, do you want to drive this? it's a little bit smaller than the GT."

Looking a tad embrassed she laughed her obvious answer question away. "Right.. Yeah, the hospital. Geez. I'm hopeless, always forgetting things aren't I" Bunny chuckled lightly as she glanced over the gears, and various controls in his car. " Well, if it's easier... Sure, smaller? Well, that's a plus... I think" she muttered scratching her head. 'Sure, you lead the way- I follow nice and easy... slow if possible, we get to hospital and you can take over" she beamed. "Not without seeing Jess first though. I think it's time we paid her a visit. Been a while. We've had like a full day off, going to the movies, lunch- feel slightly guilty knowing that Jess is laying on one of the most horrid hospital beds, and sick and injured" she frowned before shifting over in her seat. 'So, you trust me with your car eh? That's a new one" she chuckled.

Eike smiled contentedly. He knew his car was in safe hands. Sliding round another corner, Eike pulled the handbrake up and spun the car in the opposite direction, stopping neatly at the side of the car. "Right." He said decidedly. Tapping at the screen, he fiddled with the sliders controlling the car's power, LSD, suspension, brakes. Every facet of the car, so that it gripped the road as well as possible. Once it was all done, Eike looked up at Bunny. "All done, now, wait for the red GT to come out of the alley, then put your foot down. The likelyhood is that I'll be going quite fast already." Jumping out of the car, he turned back round and stuck his head in before Bunny had a chance to move. His face turning slowly beetroot colour, he put his face close to hers and muttered "Love you, Bunny." and he kissed her on the cheek before running off down the alley to the custom shop.
Once in there, Eike looked over the GT, it still looked the same as before, good. Peeking in the engine bay, he saw a complex array of parts, Eike knowing why each one was critical to the smooth, and powerful, running of a car. Behind him, one of the mechanics came out of the tea room. "Eike, how are ya?" He called out in an english accent, Like Eike's. "Haven't seen you down the circuit for a while," Eike turned towards him from looking at the engine. "Donny, it's been two days." He said mockingly. "Well," came the reply, "Not seeing you down there one night is rare, two nights is a life time. Without you to bet on, there's no money flowing down there. You gotta come back soon." He joked.
Eike looked back round at the engine, "Who fitted the turbo?" he said flatly. Donny sunk his head back slightly, "Err." HE stuttered, "I don't know. I fitted the fourth." Eike gestured for him to join him in the engine bay. "No, this is the third." He said once Donny had joined him. "Any idea's?" As Eike said that, a young-looking guy stepped out, a shy boy, not over 18. Might not even have his full license. Looking back, Eike smiled on one half of his face, "Who's this then?" He asked. Donny looked back too, "Oh, that's the new trainee, Danny, his name is." Eike stood out from the bonnet, "Hey, kid. You do this turbo?" Danny pointed at his chest, asking without words if Eike meant him. Walking warily over, he looked at the turbo, and in a small voice, said "Yes, why, is there something wrong with it?" Eike shook his head, "Yes there is, but that's why your training, here, look." He pointed at the nut holding the turbo in place, "You see this?" The boy nodded, "Right, this is supposed to be tight." Reaching over to the tool drawer, he took out an adjustable wrench and tightened it. "Like this." The boy paled, "I'm so sorry, sir, it won't..." Eike rolled his eyes. "That's why your training, your supposed to make mistakes so that you don't make them later." Oh, Right." the boy said timidly. "Apart from that, it's not a bad job, well done guys. Debit it would you please Donny." Donny nodded and paced off across the workshop. Danny went to follow him, but Eike called him back. "Hey, Danny. How old are you?" Danny blushed, "I'm 16. That little Corsa's mine over there." He said, pointing at a rather rusted Corsa from about 15 years ago. "It's not much, but it'll get me started." Eike looked at it ponderously. "How about if I give you something more, worthy for the street?" Danny looked up. "Eh? I don't get you." Eike looked at him dumbly, "How about I give you a bodykitted impreza? Nothing fancy under the bonnet, just looks the part. You work yourself up from that." Danny looked at him dumbfounded. "How... how can you do that? How will I insure it? no one will insure me in a Scooby." Eike smiled. "You don't need insurance with a friend called Eike Sky." Danny's jaw dropped, "Your... Eike Sky?" Eike nodded. Danny continued. "Your the stuff of Legends and your here! Now! And your going to give me a Subaru?!" By this time, he was shouting. "Oi." Eike shouted over him, "Not too loud or everyone else will want one." The boy piped down. "But honestly, your a legend with the youngers, they all want to be like the RX7 driver." Eike sighed, "Yeah, yeah. I know. Thats why I never hang around. The car's out at the road, look but don't touch. Oh, and mind the car too." Danny raised an eyebrow. Looking out and seeing nothing at the bottom of the alley. "Don't worry." Eike mumbled. "Now, where are the keys?" He said, loudly. Donny came over, flicking a set in his hand. "They the ones?" Eike asked, "Yup." Donny said contentedly, throwing them to Eike. Danny shut the bonnet and Eike jumped over the front of the car into the driver's seat. "Danny." He called from inside the car. Danny opened the passenger door and answered, "Yes?" Your car will be here the day after tomorow. That ok?" Danny nodded and smiled a broad smile. Starting the engine, Eike revved it slightly, hearing the turbo's kick in at 3.5k revs. "Good, at least I know where that is now." He let go of the clutch and slid down the alley to where Bunny was waiting for him. Eike put the window down and smiled, "Good luck keeping up." He pulled his hand back as the screen popped out, "Nice screen. Anyway, don't be scared, it won't lose grip of the road. if I brake, you brake, and you'll have to keep your foot to the floor to keep up with me. Ok?"

She didn't know what Eike was on, or wether or not he'd had too much coke and sugar at the movies, even before hand at home- but she knew it was odd that Eike was trusting her with his car. Especially when she found it challenging enough to drive her own Mini Cooper down to the shops, without breaking and starting suddenly at every traffic light or speed bump. Now she had to drive it, without Eike in it? Luckily she did have her licence, meaning at the very least Bunny had a touch of driving experience, and wouldn't ram his precious car into a tree.
Well, hopefully.
Watching as he walked away- blushing from ear to ear, despite the goofy grin that was spread across her face- she waited. It wasn't a very long wait. Radio on, loud.. Hey There Delilah blaring through the small alley of a street, almost precisley down to the second that the song ended, and a Green day song Poprocks and Coke blasted through the speakers, Eike and his red GT came around the corner. Fast.
Nodding to Eike, she checked quickly the mirrors and all, giving a small laugh back. "Right, right. . Sure.. Just floor it.. That's that's easy enough" she said rolling her eyes. "Just.... Don't break too suddenly, or I'll smash into you... My reaction speeds aren't as fast as yours.... UnfortunatleY"

Eike laughed at Bunny's remarks of her driving skill. "You have more talent than you realise. Have fun. and Don't worry about my car, it can be fixed. Just know what it's like to go fast." With that, he revved the GT's engine and roared off down the sun-drenched road, leaving a small exhaust trail in his wake. Looking in the mirror, he muttered to himself, nodding, "Come on, Bunny. Come on. Right foot to the floor." Pulling up the handbrake, Eike slid the steering wheel over to the right, countering it then straightening up. He slowed down. the GT still wanting to be at full throttle. "Come on, Bunny." He muttered once more.

Bunny smirked, shaking her head from side to side. "Honestly.. If I smashed this car into a tree, and it was all crumpled up from, and side and back, beacause it was a really bad crash.. You're saying you wouldn't care?" she asked raising a brow as she glanced to the side, where Eike was- still, waiting in his car for them to take off. "Because one day.. When I'm going as fast as you seem to want to go, I swear- i'd do it.. This thing needs good co-ordination... Something I really don't have. Don't ask me how on earth I dance.." she muttered before nodding, getting her feet on the gas, and break... Right and left feet in place. "Right... Ready... Off you go then" she nodded to the small, narrow lane. "Head off first so I know where to go" she said, before placing her foot down- not all the way of course, otherwise yes- she'd would've gone head first into the wall, but she took off slowly, waiting for Eike to overtake her, and move infront.
Luckily she had good control of the wheel in this car of his, and she was speeding off faster than normal, yet it seemed remarkably easy.

Eike knew the car would be easy to handle, he'd put it on the settings Bunny was using and his 5 year old nephew had won a race in it. Of course, he kept the money he earned. She still hadn't come round the corner. Eike pulled over to the side, muttering under his breath, come on Bunny, or else I'll leave you. Right then, she came, creeping round the corner. Well, in comparison to how Eike does normally. She pulled up beside him and stopped. "Where ya been? Trust the car. It's not going to lose control, believe me, I've tried." He turned the music down, The Hoosiers-Goodbye Mr. A. So that he could hear himself, let alone Bunny

"Where have I been? Right behind you.. You're just a maniac on the road. Didn't expect me to follow at that speed did you? What is it with this car. Feels as though a two year old could drive it, if his or her legs were long enough to reach the break and the gas" she muttered switching the radio completely off in the car she was driving. "Why are we stopping. You didnt' have to wait. I would've caught up eventually. . I think" she responded with a chuckle. "You don't look so happy there.. Cheer up.. I'm not that slow. Maybe you just want me to park this in your garage, and you can go off and race without having to wait for poor slow old Bunny?"

Eike shook his head. "The idea of following me is that you follow me, not lag behind 1/4 of a mile. Don't worry, we'll be there in 5 minutes." With that he drove away, more slowly this time, letting bunny keep up, he turned left then right a couple of times before finding a long straight bit of road and flooring it then slamming on the brakes and into the hospital car park. Finding a parking space, Eike jumped out of the car and sat on the bonnet waiting for Bunny.

"Excuse me?" she yelled out. "That's so uncalled for. I'm not that slow a driver. It's this car.. I swear, it wont even let me put my foot on the gas and push it about 10 km an hour... That's what I call slow.. Did you put some saftey child lock on it or something? Knowing all these gadgets you probably did.... Didn't you?" She asked frowning, but it was too late as he took off in front of her, headed towards the hospital Harley was still in, and Bunny had no choice but to slowly trail after him.
Arriving in the car park once more she hopped out of the car, throwing the keys across to the man sitting on the hood of the car next to hers. "Now I wonder if Doctor Tennant's still in charge of Harls up there.. I wouldn't mind getting a check over' She mumered with a grin. "Bit of a ... Headache" she muttered mainly to herself as she grinned nudging Eike to hurry up. "Come on, or we'll miss his shift"

Eike smiled, letting the keys bounce off his shoulder and land in his hand. "Yeah, ok, I need to sneak these back on to her bedside table anyway." Eike followed Bunny into the hospital as both cars locked themselves as he walked away. He watched her eager bouncy steps and shook his head. "Wonder if he still has the Tardis." He murmered.
