PLEASE NOTE:
PLEASE NOTE:
While this is a single entry, making all the sense provided requires you at least go through the Synopsis of my GT5 fiction: Legacy Of The Dark Horse. And the Jacob Ross segments of Dawn Of The Mythic. (P-3 till P-5)
Remember: this is a synopsis; deeper detail can be gotten from reading the actual material.
Prologue:
When you do see V8s in the East, did you expect something more of a.. striped American beast?
A mysterious Ford GT was seen humiliating a prominent tuner club just outside Tokyo. The day after, the car arrived at Gion in front of Hideki, a university student who follows automobile news in Japan. The driver, and our protagonist, is an American man, calling himself Jacob, who reluctantly began to share his past, but only one side.
Bringing ourself to the universe of Need For Speed's cop ridden city post the great escape..
Jacob begins telling his past. A new street racing crew called The New Blacklist took over underground racing in Rockport for over 2 years now. The blacklist consists of insane delinquent Murph (Murphy), Russian gambler lady Queen (Leona), a wild Gator (Fred) and an aged Malay speedster, calling himself Pakcik (Lee, name is literally Uncle in Malay), with leader Outlaw. Their state of affairs led the police to have a plan and truly make an attempt to arrest Outlaw, putting him behind bars.
Outlaw apparently escaped, as proven by the presence of his real identity: Jacob.
The day before Outlaw's escape: Jacob worked with Lee to finish tuning his vehicle: A Ford GT. Without any significant modifications, the Ford's status is left "just above stock". Later, Jacob talks to his parents, and then his little brother Keith, which led Jacob to make a beeline to Japan. But first, being a heavy planner, he needs to do "The Outlaw's Last Ride".
But what the heck does it mean?
The day of escape: Outlaw got into a chase from the police, who are eager to get him. After a bit of planning, The Outlaw's Last Ride was set up, and executed perfectly, causing to the public, the death of Outlaw, while Jacob walks out alive. He then drives his Ford GT cross country, and he connects with his to be Dark Horse.
Chapter 1:
Great job cleaning up, Jacob. But your adventure really starts here.
From the East Coast, Jacob heads to the West Coast, where his family resides. After handling cargo of his car to Japan, he visits and stays with his parents' beachfront home. Eventually, he had a dream of a ghost he couldn't forget: his long lost wife, and regained his interest in finding her after unintentionally deserting her. Japan is the beginning of his search, with his old gang to help.
Outlaw, still part of him, faces his alter ego.
While arriving in Japan, Jacob faces off his former self in his dreams, hopefully settling with what he went to do. After landing, Jacob meets up with his university classmate Bernardo, and one of his mentors, Alan. They drive home, which took a turn when Jacob chose to run the 300C with other common sports cars on the mountain.
To these two, Sibling rivalry is always around. Just see why!
Keith planned a shootout in Motegi a week after Jacob arrived. Jacob, having not settled with a car, goes to Osaka with Alan to get his Ford that recently arrived. After arriving, he met up with Gary; an old friend, and on public service; of all things to meet your typical American gangster. Afterwards, Jacob makes his move towards Motegi at high speed, hoping to get there in time for his turn in the shootout.
Just above stock and a man just above your regular talent. That's going to hurt.
While getting to know the roads of Japan, Jacob arrived in Motegi by the time his friends ended their runs. He started and wiped the floor clean, showing his ability as a racer. Eventually, time has passed and the Ford GT is well known as the Dark Horse in Japan, whose fame thwarts it's driver's plans to find his wife. Keith then requested a meeting with a few associates that may help Jacob with these problems.
Keith, what's in your mind, anyways?
The day after, Jacob and Keith meets up with the men that may help with finding a lost woman. One of them is (surprise coincidence) Gary, and the other: a finance CEO named Koji Yamazaki, preferably called Vulture. They get to know each other and agreed to help each other out. Eventually, the Yakuza that split from Vulture's control started to attack them, causing a premature split. After that, Jacob has sent a request that he hopes will be replied to.
Jacob's not an impatient man, but what's causing this pause to happen?
During this pause, Jacob is 'attacked' by Bernardo and gets to know their small library of cars. Afterwards, the two gets the green Lamborghini checked up in a racing garage. At said garage, Jacob makes another unintended visit with Hideki, and sees his car for the first time, and his crush, Ayumi. After narrowly escaping, he meets Bernardo for the real reason they arrived: to try out Lucia's BMW that has been revamped.
But.. not with official permission!
Eventually, Lucia gets her way to the tuning shop, revealing the past of her ill gotten LFA and Keith's first step to making an effort to win. After arriving, her sad mood turns to sour anger after her car seemingly gets taken. After finding out it was Bernardo's small prank, she readies, until she chases the men around, eventually not giving them any chance to apologize. After the mishaps, Jacob is offered a position in a prestigious supercar racing league from Vulture; an offer that he has to accept.
Chapter 2:
Prestigious? In what way, actually?
Fuji Speedway houses the league's last round to hire, while a yellow Bugatti appears and is driven by Shinzo; Jacob's father from his wife's side of the family. After their re meeting, he reveals a competition called the King Of The Ring is in qualifying, with the winner going to compete in Nurburg, Germany, alongside the yellow Bugatti Shinzo gives away. Meeting with Williem, the undefeated champion of said competition, and Lucia's big brother, Jacob wins his spot on the Ring, and grabs one of the fastest production cars in the world.
A Veyron won't make a man 100% happy.. true story.
After a quiet morning, Jacob receives a message that Rin is found often in a shrine near the base of Mt. Hakone. Hoping to catch her, Jacob gets there with Bernardo, only to find nothing. After a small survey, they find their old friend Murph, and Katsu's Yakuza ambush. After a moment, Jacob sets the Yakuza up for an ambush courtesy of Gary. All the action, and the gang proceeds to leave no survivors around, while Katsu tries to escape, causing Gary to destroy his vintage Challenger. The police arrived with Jacob and Murph still on scene, with Jacob meeting recently promoted secret agent Izumi: Vulture's laugh happy little sister.
Of all people to find, we get crazy little big man Murph. Why?
Moments later, Jacob catches up with Murph about what's going on with his former gang. Finding out his purpose being in Japan, Jacob proposes him to fetch his Mustang for a sum, hoping he sees it the next time they meet. At their home, Bern, Keith and Gary plays games, unknown that a certain Japanese duo sneaks on the house, looking for Jacob. Soon, spotted by Lucia and Alan, they are saved by a returning Jacob, who proceeds to tell them a deeper side within his tragic story.
Murph proves one thing: the New Blacklist isn't really out of racing yet..
As Jacob reunites with Lee, Keith reveals a darker side to the GT-R, being given from a 50 year old legend in racing, known as N.Z. Soon, Lee invites the two for an unsanctioned speed run. Jacob and Keith arrives with their cars, and meets up with Gary's backup car: a modified Shelby Cobra. While making their runs, Jacob meets with a racing veteran and rich man Eduard, who will be one of Jacob's opponents on the Nurbugring. The firefight that ensued beforehand causes the Yakuza to make a move and kidnaps Vulture and his sister, with Jacob probably next on their list.
And he'd better be on his toes!
Jacob wakes up a few days later to find out the grim news of the Yamazakis. Then, he goes to Suzuka with Lucia, with intent on coaching Hideki. As they arrive, Jacob takes interest in the memorial of a young racer that passed away on the track (CROSSOVER CONTENT). Leaving a mark of gratitude, he returns to Hideki to start co-driving him in a small race. Later, he personally meets with Heishiro, and is challenged in a race in a few days time. After that, it is found that Heishiro isn't exactly a honest man, and tries to kidnap Lucia, while failing miserably. The two get out of Suzuka after getting a call on Shinzo's recent critical state. Upon reaching the hospital, Shinzo's death was witnessed by many (even Gary, of all people..). This led to Jacob receiving Shinzo's most recent acquisition: the original Audi R8, and plans to use it for the grudge match, after gaining approval from the enigmatic N.Z.
How good is a literal dark horse in racing? For a man whose got street racing as one of his quotas?
Ready for his duel with Heishiro, Jacob meets a worried pair about his friend Bernardo. Unable to help, Jacob leaves for Suzuka in a deluge. Meanwhile, in Kyoto, an enigma and a gangster goes to a hotel to end up in a gunfight. Hearing that gunfight was the Yamazaki siblings, who end up planning their escape. After the rescue succeeds, the four go to Suzuka, to see Jacob after his domination against the Oyabun. Unable to accept his defeat, despite the advantage, Heishiro tries to kill Jacob in an ambush, only to be ambushed himself. After his escape, Jacob is finally relieved, while N.Z meets up with the missing Rin (yep, there's your waifu).
You haven't seen the last of the Oyabun yet (yeah, really).
A few days later, Izumi travels to America for a special work related assignment she has to do. At the airfield, she meets up with Heishiro, who reacts aggressively. This leads to a small hostage situation. Requesting Jacob, Heishiro seems to have it covered, until his request tries to kill him. Seemingly successful, Jacob frees Izumi, but Heishiro uses a bomb strapped on him to threaten them a last time, before being shot by another agent sneaking: Bernardo! After revealing his true allegiance to Jacob, he heads home, finally, with Jacob revealing why he went to the airfield in the first place: parents came over to cheer up their successors.
Chapter 3:
The crossover chapter is one way to start, i guess. If i had to, i would nominate this for GTPlanet best fiction part 2013.
2 months passed. Jacob, having received notoriety in racing, goes to Tokyo to visit an injured friend. Said friend is secret agent Izumi. She eventually ordered the man to head towards a lone food shop in Aoyama. Having nothing to do, Jacob goes and meets up with the owner. Getting to know her well, he leaves, to somehow see her kidnapped straight after. A rescue follows, which leads to meeting with some top racers in Japan. After the events, he finds out about the involvement of a criminal group, hopefully to take action against soon.
All right! Action! But.. he's going to plan? Aww..
Jacob gets to Tsukuba to inspect his wife's SVT Cobra, test driven by his own fangirl: Ayumi. They both leave, with Jacob revealing his wife's accident, and inspiration from a friend, named Sonny, to lead life in the fast lane. Arriving at an eatery on Tokyo's bayside, they see Keith arrive with Hideki, and party crashers Gary and N.Z, who spills the beans on these Harbingers, with them responsible for the past events. N.Z also unexpectedly opens his veil, revealing more questions than answers, and giving Jacob his lost wife's locket, to help inspire his path to reign supreme in Germany.
This locket proves to be more than your usual. You'll see why.
Jacob leaves for Germany by plane. At the airport, the brothers meet with Gary and Vulture, with the former telling them about the presence of a certain Assassin (yes, capital A) that knows no remorse, and manages to put Gary behind bars. Joining the conversation is N.Z and Izumi, telling the former gangster to calm down. As the group split up, Jacob meets with his old acquaintance Lee, and tells a story on how Sonny became involved in his life and racing career. Reaching Germany, the two meet up with former New Blacklisters Murph and Fred, with plans to reunite. Another reunion is also in the plans for Gary: with mentioned Assassin Ginoa and her new partner: a fledgling Scots racer named Paul.
Wow, with that, Gary should be in his own story. But noo: who is this Sonny to be such a badass against that anyways?
In Ahrweiler, Sonny awaits the gang within his assistance and tells his story to a random interviewer. With the gang arriving, they get back together and catch up, with Leona joining in to complete the group. They split up eventually, with our protagonist getting to know his childhood friend, and doing a favor with him. Traveling north, details unknown to the New Blacklist emerge. More about how Jacob and Sonny are so called demons: called Mythic by name.
Mythic? Sounds like no joke!
Early in the morning, Jacob and Sonny leaves for a port, carrying Sonny's backup car should his Camaro break regulations Leaving early, Sonny drives fast and shares what he plans to Jacob. Upon arrival, Sonny leaves Jacob to find the car: a modified Camaro SS. Leaving with it to Nurburg, Jacob praises the tuning made. Meanwhile, a meeting in Monaco reveals a bit on Ginoa's past, alongside Paul's shaky allegiance to the Harbingers. Also, Paul's more than the usual racer too, being the third Mythic of the four.
First this Mythic, now the Harbingers back again? The heck?!
Nurburg. An induction for the racers of the competition is present. Jacob arrives with friends coming in from all directions. Meeting with Eduard once again, they meet the recently engaged and Williem. While due for something, Williem takes his leave, and leaves Jacob with the rest. After a bit, a FIA conference with some of Nurburgring's ring meisters happens, with Williem showing off his Audi in the ring. Afterwards, Jacob and Sonny, obviously unimpressed, meets outside, eventually splitting up. Murph then gets a go at the famed Ford GT that has been haunting Japan's streets: a wowing site to many who reside at the track.
They came days before the competition. So it's natural you take your time training, no?
While Jacob gets lunch with Murph, he meets with Leona, whose reason being in Germany is revealed as her induction as one of the Nurburgring meisters. With a request from Jacob, she leaves the scene with Murph, leading to Ginoa attacking our protagonist. Wanting to talk instead of kill, Ginoa's allegiance is revealed to be not concrete as she is paid off to mess with the Harbinger's current administration. Later, Leona shows the grand tour of the Nordschliefe in high speed, while Paul meets the Harbinger himself.
That's fine, but Jacob's no god. He can't be proficient with a co-driver's tour already!
A day later, Jacob gets up to speed to the Nordschliefe's twists and turns. Having the track to himself, he prepares a self made endurance and practices to beat the lap time of at least 7 minutes, and try to keep it consistent. Later, in the town, Ginoa confesses her sins, while extending them. Sonny then meets her for the first time, finished with souvenir shopping. Later, Jacob shortens his time in the Ring, with practice, practice and practice. Friends worry when he hasn't finished a lap after 20 minutes. Then, Jacob gets a glimpse of mortality once again, finding out he beat the quota afterwards.
Finally! Competition time.
The day of the competition's elimination round. Jacob discusses a lot of things with Sonny, while his dad, Louie Ross Jr. arrives, partially surprising his son. They go around and get to know more on the competition and it's prize: a Black McLaren F1. Naturally driving it like a real racer, Jacob is inspired to get it, despite having the library of cars back home. The competition was fierce, but Jacob ended up on top at the end, with Sonny, Eduard and Williem joining him to the final round. The Harbingers aren't happy and managed to kidnap each and every one involved in the competition, even Jacob. Clue: being a master planner..
Yes, i gave it away. Jacob is just too awesome to get kidnapped.
A few days after the kidnapping. Paul takes a drive around the ring and tells Ginoa the source of his intent to win: coercion and threatening to his family. His wife already injured and daughter in custody as well with the involved in the competition, making the whole thing so far a standstill. Then, Jacob Ross managed to escape his capture with help of his friends, and reunion with another: A Mustang that hasn't been caught by the police with a hefty bounty, owned by the Most Wanted racer, while all clean of heat. With identity and friends on threat, Jacob resorted to his Outlaw persona to find out what's going on, assisted with N.Z on intelligence and Gary on protection.
Outlaw? You? YOU SHOULD BE DEAD!
From Outlaw's threat, Paul is ordered to enter a high rise building in Frankfurt. Upon entry, he receives threats on information regarding Outlaw. Almost on the verge of spilling it, Gary interferes to finish his obligations with Ginoa. Blood spills, knives drawn, tricks unleashed. Then, Gary received the upper hand and drops her off the building, only to reconcile and save her with his emergency exit: a parachute. Later, they meet up with Outlaw and N.Z, revealing the history of the McLaren, and it's significance on why the Harbingers wish to claim it. In desperation, he ends up destroying the Most Wanted Mustang so that he can stop the Harbinger. Already devastated by a virus planted by Leona and Murph in their network, the freeing of hostages and unknown betrayal from his hired work, the Harbinger is spared from death and is given a walk away, with N.Z's blessing. Days pass, and Paul, reunited with his daughter, says farewell to Jacob, or as Paul sees it: Outlaw even.
We have to finish the King Of The Ring, even.
The day of the finals. It turns out to be an upset, when the winner isn't the veteran Eduard, the returning champion Williem, or even the street racer Jacob. Sonny takes the crown, winning him the crown, but not the McLaren. N.Z's meddling causes the car to be replaced with a GT by Citroen, and Sonny is content. Meanwhile, Jacob leaves his friends and crew with Lee back to Japan. Gary and Ginoa, already in Japan, gets more work, revealing the client hiring Ginoa is Vulture. Then, N.Z meets up with Alan at their home in London. N.Z gets to work on his research with Mythic, eventually revealing that he is supposed dead racer Nash Kirkham.
Chapter 4:
I knew it! I knew this Outlaw thing was bad news!
After a month from Europe, Jacob, reliant on his Outlaw persona has gained a significant notoriety in Japanese street racing, with his new Mustang. Hideki, who started dating with Ayumi, meets the Mustang at their home in Gion. After a small surprise prank, Jacob tells the tale on how he met his wife in London, extending from the time he saved a young Lucia. The story explains on how Nash has been in their lives since. Then, Rin meets with Jacob's commander in his days, Jared, who aims to bring them together once again.
Jacob's a sweet sweet man. How can he be a bad guy? Oh wait.. he's also egotistical as Outlaw.
After a night of sound sleeping, Ginoa gets pranked by Gary, to find out that she has minor issues. Resolving quickly, they head for Fuji, to meet up with Keith. Then, Rin infiltrates the Ross home and sends a message, one that Jacob would savor for later. Jacob spends his day in Fuji circuit, meeting with Vulture, Gary, Ginoa, Keith and Alan, and gets a small look at Keith's day job as a GT500 racer. Alan has prepared Jacob to drive an old friend's Ford GT LM racecar for the first time, marking an impression for Jacob on underestimating track racers. Later, Sonny arrives, with his repainted GT, and a F1 car to show off, and practice as well.
Damn you, Sonny! But it seems you came to do more than show off, eh?
While Sonny reveals information from an anonymous source on Mythic's inner details to Keith, Jacob gives away the Jaguar XKR he claimed to his mentor figure, Alan. Upon daydreaming, Jared arrives receiving a warm welcome from his fellow soldier. Invited for a drive by Jacob, they use it to catch up. Revealing that he plans for a small party, he brings a few people to celebrate, including Gary. With Lucia, Bernardo and Williem on the way, alongside Gary, Ginoa finishes her assassinations for the day and accidentally meets up with Rin's current alias. Later, Jacob finds out about Rin's position as the fourth Mythic, realizing a cryptic message on the six pack of beer is actually a message.
Hmm, a woman in an elite racing group? And even claimed to be the best? Also: another crossover chapter?
One wedding day later, Jacob, Sonny and Alan are greeted by Vulture on a hot day in Tokyo. Greeting them was also Heishiro's M5, reclaimed by Vulture. To analyze it's potential, Lee, who appears to be passing by, checks the engine. Then, they head to a graveyard by Minato Ward, and the three visit the gravestone of a man with significance in the trio's lives, while Lee and Vulture get along. After finishing their last goodbyes, Vulture, in a surprisingly manner, hires Lee for his experience, and his first job is to take them to the wedding of Bernardo and Lucia. The wedding went smoothly until the judge that was going to officiate it got killed in suspicion from Ginoa. Having Gary replace him last second, it all went smooth afterwards. A week passes and Outlaw, who's not content with the racers he faced, burns a sacred monument to provoke and announce that he's waiting for someone.. someone to set him free.
Fire! In their hearts and Outlaw's actions!
The actions of Outlaw has granted Jacob opponents that he craves for since the return of the infamous street racer. While dissatisfied for now, he then gets information from the Yamazaki siblings about the Harbingers' increasing actions in Japan, led by former Mythic mentor Clark, whose uncanny similarity to Outlaw has given them an idea. The idea to lure the Harbingers to Japan to finish them off so Nash can make a clean start. To do that, Jacob plans to make the biggest street duel yet, and called upon the New Blacklist once again to scout the Messiah and his actions on the streets. Meanwhile, Gary and Ginoa meets up with Jared to realize the Harbingers' objective comes in the form of one lonely Rin.
Oh cripes! Clark's getting his own part. That guy can't stop using his fists to talk, now..
With Outlaw on the loose, Clark gets back up to speed with his former teammates in crime: Gary and Ginoa. Then, he finds Rin, with the help of the aforementioned duo. Getting her skills up to speed with her teacher, they reminisce on how the amnesiac escape actually happened, and why Jacob was split from her. Then, Clark heads to the Ross home to find Jacob, who we might lose to Outlaw, but finds Sonny and Keith instead.
For a street racer, Clark hates the track. A lot.
With Vulture updated on the situation between the ultimate street duel and all of Mythic's involvement, he gets Gary and Ginoa to keep a close eye on Clark, while gaining his trust. At the time, Clark requested for the two in hopes to settle a grudge that changed his life, and his ideals on the racers of the track. An incident that caused Clark to lose faith in the FIA, and kill his girlfriend even. After a success in beating up a man deemed responsible, Clark finds his way to Outlaw. While Keith's group celebrate his victory and promotion to a higher racing pedigree, they begin to realize on Jacob's change of heart, and attempt to find him after missing for days. Rin gets her reputation in street racing up, while Clark finds Outlaw first, and issues the challenge they have planned that will engrave their lifetimes.
That sounds like an idea, but police action has elevated with Outlaw being here..
A beautiful afternoon of golfing is interrupted by CIA agents as they arrest Vulture Jing. Realizing his sister's situation, Vulture tries to escape, but failed. The failure leads to Gary getting to work. After some nasty business, Clark and Ginoa ready outside the CIA HQ to rescue their comrades. While successful, Ginoa received serious injuries and is on the verge of death for the first time. With the Yamazakis forced into hiding, they are contacted by Keith, whose missing brother has the group of friends take action. Futile, they await tomorrow, where Outlaw will battle Clark across the nation. Meanwhile, Jacob Ross gets taken over by his inner demon, Outlaw, and the Harbinger arrives in Japan, hoping to exploit his new captured racing woman. However, Nash has arrived, and he has a plan.
Epilogue:
SPD, you actually write a story?
I always see you be insane or post some random Spongebob quote.
Well..
Let me tell you how it ended.
An afternoon on the day, we see Clark ready and awaiting for a latecoming Outlaw. Upon his arrival, they check on the route they take, and prepare for a 300 mile trip south. Among all the people, we have Sonny and Hideki, who plays a role in Jacob's life.
Monitored by the New Blacklist, the race makes a start with them head to head at all times. Even when the Ferrari takes a decent lead, the amounts of power one Mustang can make is exploited, proving the genius that was in the body of Outlaw.
Both cars making a stop for fuel and tires in their own designated spots, Outlaw then took a moment to think: what brought him here. A memory montage ensues, courtesy of 30 Seconds To Mars.
In the end, Outlaw took advantage over the last turn and won by a small margin. With that, Clark made contact and have them move to a nearby safe locale. Which is a Harbinger trap.
Great.. even Clark didn't want this. Getting shot for his treachery really makes it all seem worse. Outlaw gets shot too, and it took more than kevlar to save him now.
With Outlaw out of the picture, Nash makes his move, freeing Clark and Rin. And when it all seemingly looks fine, Rin gets shot, through the center.
Which woke up the inner beast of Jacob's own sanity.
Distracted with the chaos of some private security company dealing with his men, the Harbinger makes an escape, only to meet Paul again. Paul, however, is angrier than your average drunk, and beats down the Harbinger.
Making arrests seem to be the quota tonight, but Jacob brings himself back from his evil other. And he's seeing blood; possibly more blood than your average horror movie.
Jacob, who decides to take over narration, cleans this blood and sends Rin straight to the hospital. Miraculously, the wound pierces nothing vital, and she makes a full recovery soon. But Jacob has things to do.
From seeing where everyone went, and have gone, he has to move on. And thus: giving the role of protagonist to an unsung Paul.
And it all ends with one last bang: Rin and Jacob finally see each other: the first time in years..

Jacob begins telling his past. A new street racing crew called The New Blacklist took over underground racing in Rockport for over 2 years now. The blacklist consists of insane delinquent Murph (Murphy), Russian gambler lady Queen (Leona), a wild Gator (Fred) and an aged Malay speedster, calling himself Pakcik (Lee, name is literally Uncle in Malay), with leader Outlaw.

Meeting with Williem, the undefeated champion of said competition, and Lucia's big brother, Jacob wins his spot on the Ring, and grabs one of the fastest production cars in the world.
A Veyron won't make a man 100% happy.. true story.
After a quiet morning, Jacob receives a message that Rin is found often in a shrine near the base of Mt. Hakone. Hoping to catch her, Jacob gets there with Bernardo, only to find nothing. After a small survey, they find their old friend Murph, and Katsu's Yakuza ambush. After a moment, Jacob sets the Yakuza up for an ambush courtesy of Gary. All the action, and the gang proceeds to leave no survivors around, while Katsu tries to escape, causing Gary to destroy his vintage Challenger. The police arrived with Jacob and Murph still on scene, with Jacob meeting recently promoted secret agent Izumi: Vulture's laugh happy little sister.
Of all people to find, we get crazy little big man Murph. Why?
Moments later, Jacob catches up with Murph about what's going on with his former gang. Finding out his purpose being in Japan, Jacob proposes him to fetch his Mustang for a sum, hoping he sees it the next time they meet. At their home, Bern, Keith and Gary plays games, unknown that a certain Japanese duo sneaks on the house, looking for Jacob. Soon, spotted by Lucia and Alan, they are saved by a returning Jacob, who proceeds to tell them a deeper side within his tragic story.
Murph proves one thing: the New Blacklist isn't really out of racing yet..
As Jacob reunites with Lee, Keith reveals a darker side to the GT-R, being given from a 50 year old legend in racing, known as N.Z. Soon, Lee invites the two for an unsanctioned speed run. Jacob and Keith arrives with their cars, and meets up with Gary's backup car: a modified Shelby Cobra. While making their runs, Jacob meets with a racing veteran and rich man Eduard, who will be one of Jacob's opponents on the Nurbugring. The firefight that ensued beforehand causes the Yakuza to make a move and kidnaps Vulture and his sister, with Jacob probably next on their list.
And he'd better be on his toes!
Jacob wakes up a few days later to find out the grim news of the Yamazakis. Then, he goes to Suzuka with Lucia, with intent on coaching Hideki. As they arrive, Jacob takes interest in the memorial of a young racer that passed away on the track (CROSSOVER CONTENT). Leaving a mark of gratitude, he returns to Hideki to start co-driving him in a small race. Later, he personally meets with Heishiro, and is challenged in a race in a few days time. After that, it is found that Heishiro isn't exactly a honest man, and tries to kidnap Lucia, while failing miserably. The two get out of Suzuka after getting a call on Shinzo's recent critical state. Upon reaching the hospital, Shinzo's death was witnessed by many (even Gary, of all people..). This led to Jacob receiving Shinzo's most recent acquisition: the original Audi R8, and plans to use it for the grudge match, after gaining approval from the enigmatic N.Z.
How good is a literal dark horse in racing? For a man whose got street racing as one of his quotas?
Ready for his duel with Heishiro, Jacob meets a worried pair about his friend Bernardo. Unable to help, Jacob leaves for Suzuka in a deluge. Meanwhile, in Kyoto, an enigma and a gangster goes to a hotel to end up in a gunfight. Hearing that gunfight was the Yamazaki siblings, who end up planning their escape. After the rescue succeeds, the four go to Suzuka, to see Jacob after his domination against the Oyabun. Unable to accept his defeat, despite the advantage, Heishiro tries to kill Jacob in an ambush, only to be ambushed himself. After his escape, Jacob is finally relieved, while N.Z meets up with the missing Rin (yep, there's your waifu).
You haven't seen the last of the Oyabun yet (yeah, really).
A few days later, Izumi travels to America for a special work related assignment she has to do. At the airfield, she meets up with Heishiro, who reacts aggressively. This leads to a small hostage situation. Requesting Jacob, Heishiro seems to have it covered, until his request tries to kill him. Seemingly successful, Jacob frees Izumi, but Heishiro uses a bomb strapped on him to threaten them a last time, before being shot by another agent sneaking: Bernardo! After revealing his true allegiance to Jacob, he heads home, finally, with Jacob revealing why he went to the airfield in the first place: parents came over to cheer up their successors.
Chapter 3:
The crossover chapter is one way to start, i guess. If i had to, i would nominate this for GTPlanet best fiction part 2013.
2 months passed. Jacob, having received notoriety in racing, goes to Tokyo to visit an injured friend. Said friend is secret agent Izumi. She eventually ordered the man to head towards a lone food shop in Aoyama. Having nothing to do, Jacob goes and meets up with the owner. Getting to know her well, he leaves, to somehow see her kidnapped straight after. A rescue follows, which leads to meeting with some top racers in Japan. After the events, he finds out about the involvement of a criminal group, hopefully to take action against soon.
All right! Action! But.. he's going to plan? Aww..
Jacob gets to Tsukuba to inspect his wife's SVT Cobra, test driven by his own fangirl: Ayumi. They both leave, with Jacob revealing his wife's accident, and inspiration from a friend, named Sonny, to lead life in the fast lane. Arriving at an eatery on Tokyo's bayside, they see Keith arrive with Hideki, and party crashers Gary and N.Z, who spills the beans on these Harbingers, with them responsible for the past events. N.Z also unexpectedly opens his veil, revealing more questions than answers, and giving Jacob his lost wife's locket, to help inspire his path to reign supreme in Germany.
This locket proves to be more than your usual. You'll see why.
Jacob leaves for Germany by plane. At the airport, the brothers meet with Gary and Vulture, with the former telling them about the presence of a certain Assassin (yes, capital A) that knows no remorse, and manages to put Gary behind bars. Joining the conversation is N.Z and Izumi, telling the former gangster to calm down. As the group split up, Jacob meets with his old acquaintance Lee, and tells a story on how Sonny became involved in his life and racing career. Reaching Germany, the two meet up with former New Blacklisters Murph and Fred, with plans to reunite. Another reunion is also in the plans for Gary: with mentioned Assassin Ginoa and her new partner: a fledgling Scots racer named Paul.
Wow, with that, Gary should be in his own story. But noo: who is this Sonny to be such a badass against that anyways?
In Ahrweiler, Sonny awaits the gang within his assistance and tells his story to a random interviewer. With the gang arriving, they get back together and catch up, with Leona joining in to complete the group. They split up eventually, with our protagonist getting to know his childhood friend, and doing a favor with him. Traveling north, details unknown to the New Blacklist emerge. More about how Jacob and Sonny are so called demons: called Mythic by name.
Mythic? Sounds like no joke!
Early in the morning, Jacob and Sonny leaves for a port, carrying Sonny's backup car should his Camaro break regulations Leaving early, Sonny drives fast and shares what he plans to Jacob. Upon arrival, Sonny leaves Jacob to find the car: a modified Camaro SS. Leaving with it to Nurburg, Jacob praises the tuning made. Meanwhile, a meeting in Monaco reveals a bit on Ginoa's past, alongside Paul's shaky allegiance to the Harbingers. Also, Paul's more than the usual racer too, being the third Mythic of the four.
First this Mythic, now the Harbingers back again? The heck?!
Nurburg. An induction for the racers of the competition is present. Jacob arrives with friends coming in from all directions. Meeting with Eduard once again, they meet the recently engaged and Williem. While due for something, Williem takes his leave, and leaves Jacob with the rest. After a bit, a FIA conference with some of Nurburgring's ring meisters happens, with Williem showing off his Audi in the ring. Afterwards, Jacob and Sonny, obviously unimpressed, meets outside, eventually splitting up. Murph then gets a go at the famed Ford GT that has been haunting Japan's streets: a wowing site to many who reside at the track.
They came days before the competition. So it's natural you take your time training, no?
While Jacob gets lunch with Murph, he meets with Leona, whose reason being in Germany is revealed as her induction as one of the Nurburgring meisters. With a request from Jacob, she leaves the scene with Murph, leading to Ginoa attacking our protagonist. Wanting to talk instead of kill, Ginoa's allegiance is revealed to be not concrete as she is paid off to mess with the Harbinger's current administration. Later, Leona shows the grand tour of the Nordschliefe in high speed, while Paul meets the Harbinger himself.
That's fine, but Jacob's no god. He can't be proficient with a co-driver's tour already!
A day later, Jacob gets up to speed to the Nordschliefe's twists and turns. Having the track to himself, he prepares a self made endurance and practices to beat the lap time of at least 7 minutes, and try to keep it consistent. Later, in the town, Ginoa confesses her sins, while extending them. Sonny then meets her for the first time, finished with souvenir shopping. Later, Jacob shortens his time in the Ring, with practice, practice and practice. Friends worry when he hasn't finished a lap after 20 minutes. Then, Jacob gets a glimpse of mortality once again, finding out he beat the quota afterwards.
Finally! Competition time.
The day of the competition's elimination round. Jacob discusses a lot of things with Sonny, while his dad, Louie Ross Jr. arrives, partially surprising his son. They go around and get to know more on the competition and it's prize: a Black McLaren F1. Naturally driving it like a real racer, Jacob is inspired to get it, despite having the library of cars back home. The competition was fierce, but Jacob ended up on top at the end, with Sonny, Eduard and Williem joining him to the final round. The Harbingers aren't happy and managed to kidnap each and every one involved in the competition, even Jacob. Clue: being a master planner..
Yes, i gave it away. Jacob is just too awesome to get kidnapped.
A few days after the kidnapping. Paul takes a drive around the ring and tells Ginoa the source of his intent to win: coercion and threatening to his family. His wife already injured and daughter in custody as well with the involved in the competition, making the whole thing so far a standstill. Then, Jacob Ross managed to escape his capture with help of his friends, and reunion with another: A Mustang that hasn't been caught by the police with a hefty bounty, owned by the Most Wanted racer, while all clean of heat. With identity and friends on threat, Jacob resorted to his Outlaw persona to find out what's going on, assisted with N.Z on intelligence and Gary on protection.
Outlaw? You? YOU SHOULD BE DEAD!
From Outlaw's threat, Paul is ordered to enter a high rise building in Frankfurt. Upon entry, he receives threats on information regarding Outlaw. Almost on the verge of spilling it, Gary interferes to finish his obligations with Ginoa. Blood spills, knives drawn, tricks unleashed. Then, Gary received the upper hand and drops her off the building, only to reconcile and save her with his emergency exit: a parachute. Later, they meet up with Outlaw and N.Z, revealing the history of the McLaren, and it's significance on why the Harbingers wish to claim it. In desperation, he ends up destroying the Most Wanted Mustang so that he can stop the Harbinger. Already devastated by a virus planted by Leona and Murph in their network, the freeing of hostages and unknown betrayal from his hired work, the Harbinger is spared from death and is given a walk away, with N.Z's blessing. Days pass, and Paul, reunited with his daughter, says farewell to Jacob, or as Paul sees it: Outlaw even.
We have to finish the King Of The Ring, even.
The day of the finals. It turns out to be an upset, when the winner isn't the veteran Eduard, the returning champion Williem, or even the street racer Jacob. Sonny takes the crown, winning him the crown, but not the McLaren. N.Z's meddling causes the car to be replaced with a GT by Citroen, and Sonny is content. Meanwhile, Jacob leaves his friends and crew with Lee back to Japan. Gary and Ginoa, already in Japan, gets more work, revealing the client hiring Ginoa is Vulture. Then, N.Z meets up with Alan at their home in London. N.Z gets to work on his research with Mythic, eventually revealing that he is supposed dead racer Nash Kirkham.
Chapter 4:
I knew it! I knew this Outlaw thing was bad news!
After a month from Europe, Jacob, reliant on his Outlaw persona has gained a significant notoriety in Japanese street racing, with his new Mustang. Hideki, who started dating with Ayumi, meets the Mustang at their home in Gion. After a small surprise prank, Jacob tells the tale on how he met his wife in London, extending from the time he saved a young Lucia. The story explains on how Nash has been in their lives since. Then, Rin meets with Jacob's commander in his days, Jared, who aims to bring them together once again.
Jacob's a sweet sweet man. How can he be a bad guy? Oh wait.. he's also egotistical as Outlaw.
After a night of sound sleeping, Ginoa gets pranked by Gary, to find out that she has minor issues. Resolving quickly, they head for Fuji, to meet up with Keith. Then, Rin infiltrates the Ross home and sends a message, one that Jacob would savor for later. Jacob spends his day in Fuji circuit, meeting with Vulture, Gary, Ginoa, Keith and Alan, and gets a small look at Keith's day job as a GT500 racer. Alan has prepared Jacob to drive an old friend's Ford GT LM racecar for the first time, marking an impression for Jacob on underestimating track racers. Later, Sonny arrives, with his repainted GT, and a F1 car to show off, and practice as well.
Damn you, Sonny! But it seems you came to do more than show off, eh?
While Sonny reveals information from an anonymous source on Mythic's inner details to Keith, Jacob gives away the Jaguar XKR he claimed to his mentor figure, Alan. Upon daydreaming, Jared arrives receiving a warm welcome from his fellow soldier. Invited for a drive by Jacob, they use it to catch up. Revealing that he plans for a small party, he brings a few people to celebrate, including Gary. With Lucia, Bernardo and Williem on the way, alongside Gary, Ginoa finishes her assassinations for the day and accidentally meets up with Rin's current alias. Later, Jacob finds out about Rin's position as the fourth Mythic, realizing a cryptic message on the six pack of beer is actually a message.
Hmm, a woman in an elite racing group? And even claimed to be the best? Also: another crossover chapter?
One wedding day later, Jacob, Sonny and Alan are greeted by Vulture on a hot day in Tokyo. Greeting them was also Heishiro's M5, reclaimed by Vulture. To analyze it's potential, Lee, who appears to be passing by, checks the engine. Then, they head to a graveyard by Minato Ward, and the three visit the gravestone of a man with significance in the trio's lives, while Lee and Vulture get along. After finishing their last goodbyes, Vulture, in a surprisingly manner, hires Lee for his experience, and his first job is to take them to the wedding of Bernardo and Lucia. The wedding went smoothly until the judge that was going to officiate it got killed in suspicion from Ginoa. Having Gary replace him last second, it all went smooth afterwards. A week passes and Outlaw, who's not content with the racers he faced, burns a sacred monument to provoke and announce that he's waiting for someone.. someone to set him free.
Fire! In their hearts and Outlaw's actions!
The actions of Outlaw has granted Jacob opponents that he craves for since the return of the infamous street racer. While dissatisfied for now, he then gets information from the Yamazaki siblings about the Harbingers' increasing actions in Japan, led by former Mythic mentor Clark, whose uncanny similarity to Outlaw has given them an idea. The idea to lure the Harbingers to Japan to finish them off so Nash can make a clean start. To do that, Jacob plans to make the biggest street duel yet, and called upon the New Blacklist once again to scout the Messiah and his actions on the streets. Meanwhile, Gary and Ginoa meets up with Jared to realize the Harbingers' objective comes in the form of one lonely Rin.
Oh cripes! Clark's getting his own part. That guy can't stop using his fists to talk, now..
With Outlaw on the loose, Clark gets back up to speed with his former teammates in crime: Gary and Ginoa. Then, he finds Rin, with the help of the aforementioned duo. Getting her skills up to speed with her teacher, they reminisce on how the amnesiac escape actually happened, and why Jacob was split from her. Then, Clark heads to the Ross home to find Jacob, who we might lose to Outlaw, but finds Sonny and Keith instead.
For a street racer, Clark hates the track. A lot.
With Vulture updated on the situation between the ultimate street duel and all of Mythic's involvement, he gets Gary and Ginoa to keep a close eye on Clark, while gaining his trust. At the time, Clark requested for the two in hopes to settle a grudge that changed his life, and his ideals on the racers of the track. An incident that caused Clark to lose faith in the FIA, and kill his girlfriend even. After a success in beating up a man deemed responsible, Clark finds his way to Outlaw. While Keith's group celebrate his victory and promotion to a higher racing pedigree, they begin to realize on Jacob's change of heart, and attempt to find him after missing for days. Rin gets her reputation in street racing up, while Clark finds Outlaw first, and issues the challenge they have planned that will engrave their lifetimes.
That sounds like an idea, but police action has elevated with Outlaw being here..
A beautiful afternoon of golfing is interrupted by CIA agents as they arrest Vulture Jing. Realizing his sister's situation, Vulture tries to escape, but failed. The failure leads to Gary getting to work. After some nasty business, Clark and Ginoa ready outside the CIA HQ to rescue their comrades. While successful, Ginoa received serious injuries and is on the verge of death for the first time. With the Yamazakis forced into hiding, they are contacted by Keith, whose missing brother has the group of friends take action. Futile, they await tomorrow, where Outlaw will battle Clark across the nation. Meanwhile, Jacob Ross gets taken over by his inner demon, Outlaw, and the Harbinger arrives in Japan, hoping to exploit his new captured racing woman. However, Nash has arrived, and he has a plan.
Epilogue:
SPD, you actually write a story?
I always see you be insane or post some random Spongebob quote.
Well..
Let me tell you how it ended.
An afternoon on the day, we see Clark ready and awaiting for a latecoming Outlaw. Upon his arrival, they check on the route they take, and prepare for a 300 mile trip south. Among all the people, we have Sonny and Hideki, who plays a role in Jacob's life.
Monitored by the New Blacklist, the race makes a start with them head to head at all times. Even when the Ferrari takes a decent lead, the amounts of power one Mustang can make is exploited, proving the genius that was in the body of Outlaw.
Both cars making a stop for fuel and tires in their own designated spots, Outlaw then took a moment to think: what brought him here. A memory montage ensues, courtesy of 30 Seconds To Mars.
In the end, Outlaw took advantage over the last turn and won by a small margin. With that, Clark made contact and have them move to a nearby safe locale. Which is a Harbinger trap.
Great.. even Clark didn't want this. Getting shot for his treachery really makes it all seem worse. Outlaw gets shot too, and it took more than kevlar to save him now.
With Outlaw out of the picture, Nash makes his move, freeing Clark and Rin. And when it all seemingly looks fine, Rin gets shot, through the center.
Which woke up the inner beast of Jacob's own sanity.
Distracted with the chaos of some private security company dealing with his men, the Harbinger makes an escape, only to meet Paul again. Paul, however, is angrier than your average drunk, and beats down the Harbinger.
Making arrests seem to be the quota tonight, but Jacob brings himself back from his evil other. And he's seeing blood; possibly more blood than your average horror movie.
Jacob, who decides to take over narration, cleans this blood and sends Rin straight to the hospital. Miraculously, the wound pierces nothing vital, and she makes a full recovery soon. But Jacob has things to do.
From seeing where everyone went, and have gone, he has to move on. And thus: giving the role of protagonist to an unsung Paul.
And it all ends with one last bang: Rin and Jacob finally see each other: the first time in years..

Behind the scenes of SPD's fiction work:
A small section that, since I've retired, would share the great ideas that would've been. Come back to see anything that might interest you.
- Did you know that the only detail I've overlooked while writing 'Lost My Way' was the growing of Jake's hair? The Prologue of 'Dawn Of The Mythic' depicted Jacob with a short strand of hair atop his always bald head, while he's lost it thanks to Ginoa. By Chapter 3, he'd have it back, but shaved by the end of 3-1.
- Did you know that a was to be announced character that's still under the works would be a woman named Monica Ross? Yeah! That's right! Her role as a character would be a relation role to the story plot of chapter 3, and the driver of the Shelby Series One. For relationship reasons, she's Jacob's cousin, and behold: she's your typical tsundere!
- Did you know that Ginoa Fantoccia's addition to the fiction was initially, i thought, a bad idea. But her inclusion was to give Author's Pet Gary D. some more character boost.
- Did you know that the major focus in introducing characters is to ensure they don't fit a cliche stereotype. For instance, Jacob is introduced to us, already experienced at the start, and already wed.
- Did you know that Sonny's many habits refer to mine? Such as waking up to Dire Straits' Money To Nothing, and always enjoying looking at mirrors. Note that Kirk is the realistic Author Avatar.
- Did you know Jacob Ross is made as a villainous protagonist? How? By acting as both a hero and villain. Also, did you know that his initial Dawn Of The Mythic leitmotif is Metallica - Prince Charming?
- Did you know that Williem was slated to be starring in his own chapter? And not Chapter 5?
- Did you know Hayato was going to co-star in Chapter 4, and meet an evil twin?
- Did you know that there's a Spongebob joke inside Lost My Way? Look for the scene that involved a character that initially used a Spongebob joke in Dawn Of The Mythic.
- Did you know Sonny was to receive the most development over his chapter? How? I wouldn't say, but it involved steel, gold and a lot of Duke Nukem style catchphrases. And a Leitmotif change, too!
- Did you know that Outlaw will perform a second burning?
- Did you know that Rodulf was the main focus of an initial Crossover chapter? But i changed to Clark, since Rodulf is a killer in a Veyron that so happens to know how to race..
- Did you know Clark's original namesake: Maximus Davies, was in actuality to reveal Clark's origin as a Welsh?
- Did you know that Red Diablo is owned by a person who serves as the catalyst to Clark's rage?
- Did you know that Alan Robinson will play a defining role in the climax of Chapter 1? What it is? I won't say.
- Did you know Sonny will move a step ahead and induct 2 people into Mythic?
