Passionate Pink Sisters
Two girls. Two cars. One color. And possibly one million trips around the world.

Well, as you see, I'm quite disappointed with "Drifting Around the World". I hate it when everything gets generic, predictable, boring and all that, but my old fanfic's starting to get screwed up. I can't get good ideas too for the next chapter, so I decided to do everything all over again.
Also take note, before ranting about copyrights, originality and stuff, I got permission from this guy to use his characters in a fanfic. All credit and royalties and stuff goes to him. So here it is, my second shot in making a fanfic. I hope everything would look a lot better than the old one.
For the opening chapter, I'd "split" it up into two first because I can't get more ideas anymore. Doing so may also leave more room for the last scene too, I think.
Chapter 1 - What's up, Shye?
Meet Shye Zendios. A girl every man dreamt of: hot, rich, insane, and all that. Daughter of a multi-billionaire, she owns a vast collection of cars. She also got properties everywhere, a mansion here, a state-of-the-art home there, they're all everywhere. Liabilities? She's too wealthy to get into debt. As an heir to one of the richest men in the world, she's living the dream.
It has been a sunny noon in Monte Carlo, Monaco. The sun shines radiantly, giving off eye-blinding rays of light. Shye cruises in the streets in a blue Ferrari California with her sister Daze. The top's down, and they sail by each and every building with their aviators on, showing off their sense of class. Adele was singing her hit song Rolling In the Deep through the radio. Shye's silky, silver hair shined radiantly, reflecting the sunlight along with the Ferrari's Blu Abu Dhabi paintjob. While the flatplane V8 was growling at low revs a red light paused the traffic and Shye rolled the Ferrari to a complete stop. A couple of Mercs stopped afterwards but a black GTR SpecV flew by, able to beat the red light. Suddenly, her tummy grumbled out of hunger.
"Aw, jeez."
"Shye, that's what you get for going off without taking in anything."
"Huh? I don't have the appetite to eat anything this morning."
"Okay, fine. So, where to?"
"Maybe that?" Shye pointed out a posh restaurant around the corner with western-style food as their specialty.
"Cool, I'm craving for pasta now anyway."
The green light's on, and Shye drove to the restaurant and parked the car right in front of the it, in between an E92 M3 and a Peugeot 307 CC. Shye killed the engine, unbuckled her seatbelts, got out of the Ferrari with her sister and entered the restaurant. A waiter appeared and greeted them in a French accent.
"Bonjour. Are you the only two girls?"
"Yup." Daze replied.
"Maybe this table will do?"
"Sure."
The waiter led them to a table near the window. The two girls sat down, and he gave them the menu.
"Hmmm..."
"What's the matter Shye?"
"Oh, nothing sis, just trying to decide..."
"Heh. I'd go for some Lasagna." The waiter took note of the order. He then asked Shye, who was apparently staring at a picture of a rib-eye steak meal, drool almost coming out at the side of her lips. Daze snapped her sister out of it and asked her what would she order. "Uhh yeah, some New York style rib-eye steak? With some mashed potato." The waiter took note again and went to get the food cooking. Daze got her iPhone, looked at the organizer (or calendar, or whatever) with loads of events taken note. She then asked her sister about what to during the month.
"So, tomorrow's gonna be the Monaco GP of Formula GT..."
"That happened last week Daze, you're looking at the wrong week." Daze glanced on her iPhone again.
"Uhhh right. On Saturday, would be Monte Carlo D, and I heard Ken Nomura would come and participate in his ER34."
"We were there too." Daze took a look at her iPhone for the 3rd time and facepalmed.
"Two weeks later would be the meetup in Monza, Italy. Wednesday to be exact."
"If we start our road trip tomorrow we would have a few days to spare."
"It would take a few hundre... Pretty much. We would catch the worm really early when we'll get there."
"Now all I'll think of is what car I would use."
"Just don't go for the SLS."
"Why?"
"Its numb steering screwed up the last meetup in Madrid."
"It's fine for me though."
"The 458 is a better choice."
"Nein. The rear looks hideous to me. The 430 Scuderia looks a lot better."
"And it handles well too."
"But you know what, I've been thinking of the R8 V10. Probably a better choice to me since it's 4WD and all. Or the Gallardo, it sounds really good."
"Are you sure? I didn't really like the way the Lamborghinis handled."
"Eh? Anyway the R8 would probably be the best choice. Looks good, sounds good, feels good, handles well."
"How about the GT-R?"
"I'd go for the one that looks like the one that blasted away before the red light earlier, but somehow it's just too boring. I need more mountain paths but that would delay our trip."
"The Ferrari 599?"
"I don't want Grand Tourers for now. Too snappy."
"Why don't you go for a Ferrari then?"
"Because Lamborghini's sound better to me?"
"Alright then."
Another waiter comes and places their drinks on their table. Two glasses of iced tea, one for Daze, the other for Shye. After the waiter went Shye took a little sip on her glass.
"I've been also thinking Shye, are you also interested in the Nurburgring GP time attack event?"
"Sounds good. It would take long before it would start though, let's leave that aside for now."
"Then it's settled. Tomorrow, we'll leave Monte Carlo in an Audi R8 V10 for the meetup. It's your turn to race, I'll take a break from all the racing and stuff."
"Why won't we go shopping afterwards today? We don't have time to do stuff and whatever, since we have to prepare for our road trip tomorrow."
"Sounds good to me." The current song has ended and yet another jazz song gets played. You could see how they live being rich: they can eat in such restaurant anytime they want without financial issues pulling them down. Restaurants with fine dishes and such a relaxing ambiance... Gah that reminds me of the last time I went to the mall just to play Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 3DX+. That doesn't mean that I'm also that rich though.
A few minutes later, all the time being consumed by the usual chitchat, the dishes are finally served.
"Hey Shye, don't you like the smell of fresh food..." Apparently Shye didn't pay attention again, simply because of the dishes that were served. They gave off a smell that would tempt you to eating it like a glutton. Drool is struggling to get out of Shye's lips again.
"Ummmmm Shye? Nnnever mind then, let's just start eating."
------------------------------------------------
Does it sound a lot better than before, or is it still the same? Let me know, because I'm trying to put even more effort, right to the very edge that it would be a bit text-heavy and/or cheesy.
Never mind, can't be bothered putting up the index. If only I placed a single placeholder below. Bleh.
