The Journey To "The Ring" - Chapter 8.5 - Nunquam timent mori (Part 2)

First time I've seen some romance in a GT5 fanfic. That's probably what sets this one apart from the others, great job. 👍

Looking forward to more of them.
 
Chapter 6.7 - A Warning

The Sanchez Apartment - 12 Midnight

The gang was fast asleep when suddenly Alex's phone rang.
"Uhhhh..." *Picks up phone* "Hello"
Person on the other line: "Hello,Sanchez"
Immediately, Alex found out who was on the other line.
It was one of his bullies, Rico Medina.
"What do you want?"
Rico: "I just heard you became a race car driver."
"Yeah. So?"
Rico: "You better enjoy your time."
"*sigh* Not this 🤬 again!! You guys are still after me aren't you?"
Rico:"We're gonna make sure you never win a single race!!!"
"Oh yeah sure like that's ever gonna happen.
What are you gonna do, sabotage my car? The track?
Good luck with that. Your so dumb you tried to drown a fish during biology class."

Rico: "Shut up you 🤬!"
"What's the matter? Feeling Butt Hurt?"
Rico:"You no good 🤬!!! Your gonna get what you deserve on you race."
"We'll see about that fruitcake!" *Puts down phone*

Alex woke up everyone and show them a recording of his argument.
"What do these guys want?"
"He's one of Alex's bullies. There really horrible."
"Its not only Alex they used to bully. Even me!
"We have to be careful.
Who knows what they in store for us."

"True. But we don't have to retaliate unless they go to far. If its a fight they want its a fight they'll get, but only if they push us too far"
"Erica's right. Ok guys back to bed, our next race is at Downtown Tokyo."
All:Goodnight!

To be continued...

I'm gonna love epic duels.

Just one tip though, when you have to swear, use either the 🤬 smiley to cover up the whole rod or just type the word to let the forum automatically censor it.

This was passed on from one fanfic to another, lol.

Fixed!
 
Sorry, I'm suffering from withdrawal symptoms.

That is probably the greatest accolade a fanfic writer can ever achieve: fans openly declaring their need for their addiction to be fed.

Meanwhile up front...
TokyoR246_46.jpg


Vicarev's Crew Chief: "Sanchez already passed 2 cars on the first turn."
"His car's too heavy he won't catch up to my Skyline."


"What do I have to do to reach them?"
TokyoR246_45.jpg



"Can't...reach...the Celica."
TokyoR246_44.jpg



" 'Cmon!! 'Cmoooooonnnn!!!!!!"

TokyoR246_22.jpg



"There! How's that?"
TokyoR246_21.jpg



Alex decided to sent a message to Vladimir by hitting his car from behind
"Here a little present for ya!"
TokyoR246_19.jpg

"Oomph!"


Then suddenly the Primera was sneaking up from behind
TokyoR246_18.jpg

"🤬 that car is annoying!"
"At least that's one thing we can agree on!"


"Sorry boys, but this is my race!"
TokyoR246_17.jpg



"YEAAAAHHH!!!!"
"Thats what I'm talking about baby!"

But as Red-Line Racing was celebrating, Vladimir was furious
TokyoR246_15.jpg

"Have to get away from him."

"*sigh* That was close!"
TokyoR246_6.jpg



"Make sure he stay's behind!"
TokyoR246_4.jpg



"Home stretch baby!"
TokyoR246_3.jpg



As Alex raced by, the spectators went wild. Alex had plenty of fans in the stands

TokyoR246_1.jpg



"WHOOO!!!! YEAH!!!"
TokyoR246.jpg



Alex and the rest of the team were dancing like there dumb.
Reporter's, spectator's and every one in Japan we're shocked and in awe.


As the team was packing up Alex and Erica were enjoying a Venti-sized Starbucks Vanilla Bean Frappuccino.
vanilla+bean+frappuccino.jpg


Then as the two approached Erica's S2000, she suddenly tackled Alex forcing him inside the car and attempted to kiss him.


"WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU!?!?!"
"What? I was just helping you remember the old days."
"I told you, I don't have time for a date ok!? I'll have time for us to be together another time!"
"...Oh...Ok...Sorry"
"Hey...don't get mad. Ok"
"Don't worry I'm not..."
"Thanks for understanding. Now can you please let me out of this car"
"Ok...*Opens door*"

After that, Erica was silent the whole day.
She started to wonder why Alex acted unlike back then.
After pacing back and forth. He finally realized that the old Alex was gone. She wept silently, but was determined to get the old Alex back.

I really lol'd hard when Alex was speaking in Filipino. Gawd I loved moments like that. :lol:

Guess it's track day, that's why SUPER GT wasn't held yet? Or must be a run-what-ya-brung event? Either way, fantastic job there. 👍

The SUPER GT race was held at night. :lol:
That's why the road was closed the whole day.
Giving club racers the opportunity to race for the spectators.
 
^ Maybe it's because it has Chun Mei's boost controller.... [/shameless self-advertising]
 
I'll try making the next mini chapter tomorrow.
Classes started a week ago and i'm classmates w/ my crush (who's also my inspiration for Erica, one of the characters).

I bet you got more balls than me on this one, I got 3 crushes in my life but I pissed off the 3rd one. 2nd is meh, first, ummm, are me and her just good friends or what? :lol:

Nothing's stopping you mate. 👍

And besides i'm a bit of a loner.
 
Chapter 7.5 - Girl Talk

"He's so different" Erica said while hanging out
with Sophia in her room.
"That's what you get for breaking his heart"
"I didn't mean to do it. They made me."
"Yeah. But I think you we're thinking of yourself during that time."
"...Was I?"
" 'Cause if you really cared for him you should have told him that it was all a set up."
"But if I did,Marc could have killed me."
"WHAT!?! You should go tell the police or the FBI or something!!"
*Door Knocks*
"Come In!"
"Ladies,time for dinner."
"OK. We'll be right down."

*During Dinner*
"So what's next..."
"I don't know... maybe we should work on tuning the Alfa."
"Can't we just take a break!?!"
"We can't, we have a lot of things to do."
"We've been doing nothing but race."
"Better get used to it!"

*After*
"What's wrong with you! I just wanna go somewhere that doesn't smell like burnt rubber."
"Welcome to the life of a race car driver!"
"Why are you treating me like this?! What happened to the Alex I know?"
"The old Alex is gone! I'm gonna make sure that the people who knew me will see me not as a loser, but as a legend."
"This is for payback isn't it?"
"YES!!"
*Shed Tear* "Alex, I never thought you would be come like this"
"Its all because of those miserable years"
*Hold's Hand* "Don't worry, I'll stay with you every step of the way" *Kisses Alex*


"Thanks, you always seem to know how to soften me up."
*Giggle* "It's what I do best".
"Why don't you sleep with me for now?"
"Sure!"
