Kira nodded after she heard his story and remembered what she had heard Cole say and decided not to say she knew all this just so he wouldn't get mad at her. The way he said it and his expression told her that he was telling the truth so she wasn't going to bother him for to many more details then she needed to know. Even though she could tell that he was telling the truth she was still a little weary about him. She didn't know if it was because he was a "criminal" or just because of the whole gas station incident. "I'll take you and who ever else you want to the race it was at last night if you want." She would rather be on Brian's good side rather then his bad side. She was already on that side once and would rather not be back on that side again.

Brian relaxed a little when she didn't get in his face but agreed to show him where she'd seen the expensive car. "Thank you. But there's one more thing. I have to ask you not to show our pictures to anybody. Could you simply delete them and not take any more?" Hopefully she wouldn't ask why. Then again if she didn't Brian knew she was up to something.

"Besides the one's I gave you the other day of you and Cole at the accident I don't have any. I deleted the others after you had asked me to at the race." She knew why he didn't want to but decided not to play stupid and just to go along with with what he asked her to do. She took another drink of her coffee and set her camera on the table. "Is there anything else you need or want to tell me?" She wanted to make sure he thought of her as a friend she really didn't want to be his enemy.

"No, nothing else." He smiled at her and drank some more of his coffee, which was slowly cooling down and developed it's rich chocolaty taste. "Thank you." He looked up at her over the rim of the cup and studied her coming to the conclusion that she was being sincere. "Anything you want me to do?" Maybe there was some sort of payback she wanted for the deleted pictures. There was a strange look in her eyes and Brian thought he recogniZed it. "You are afraid of me, aren't you?"

Kira smiled back."Your welcome Brian." She thought for a few seconds but couldn't really come up with anything. "I can't really think of anything. But if you or Cole need me at anytime my room is right next to yours in the hotel so you know where to find me." She wanted to help because she likes to help people and the second because this would keep her on Brian's good side.

Suddenly Brian started laughing. The fact that she was next door at the hostel and Cole accused her of stalking them at the gas station seemed funny. "You're next door? Are you sure you're not stalking?" After a good moment of chuckling he shook his head. "Listen, I appreciate your offer and there's nothing to be afraid of. I'm not going to harm you, okay?" The girl must have an aweful impression. He grabbed his keys. "Are you done? Then let's go."

Kira let out a nervous laugh. "I'm not stalking you trust me." She smiled a little more still nervous. "Alright I'll trust you I guess and yes I'm done." She grabbed her camera and keys as she stood up. "Are you going alone to the race?"

"For now. I'm pretty sure Cole will tell my girlfriend that we bumped into you. I'll call him later at the hostel." Since it wasn't even dark outside yet Brian figured there wasn't a big rush. While he was walking to his car he thought about her question again. Maybe it wasn't such a great idea to go alone. Last time he did that he ended up in a world of trouble. "Hey, can you call the hostel and leave a message for room 23? Tell them the adress and to meet me there, please."

She stopped next to her car and nodded. "Sure." She called the hotel and left the message. After the call she closed her phone. "Alright its all set. Do you not have a cell phone?" She wondered why he had her call instead of calling himself.

"None that works here." That sure sounded better than the police toom it from me when they arrested me and Mira's is at the bottom of the ocean so they can't track us. He got into his beloved car, a little sad that he would soon have to swap it for one that wasn't on the FBIs search list.
The streets and traffic regulations were somewhat similar but driving on the left side of the road sure confused the hell out of Brian especially when it came to turning. Thank goodness the races were in empty parking lots and not on open streets.

Kira nodded she knew that a few places in the city that sold disposable phones that worked well in the city only reason she knew is because she had one though.
She led Brian though the traffic making sure that he wouldn't get lost. She was use to driving here now but it still confused her at times. She pulled up into the parking lot that the race would be at and looked around. A few cars were already here as well and all of them she knew from seeing at races before. Hopefully the car that was here last night would be here again tonight.

Brian left the sling, that had become his companion over the past week and provided some relief, in the car and pulled on a baseball cap that was sitting on the dash board. He wished he had his 9mm in the glove compartment just to be on the safe side but he wasn't so lucky.
With interest he looked around at the other cars. Of course none of the stolen ones were in sight. At least not yet. "Do you know when the race is going to start?" He wondered. "C'mon, let's check out the drivers, who are already here." With her in tow he walked over to the two Japanese and admired their cars.

"The race will start in about 15 to 20 minutes." She replied as she got out of her car. She fiddled with her camera for a few seconds making sure all the right settings were turned on then hooked it safely around her neck. She followed him over to cars. "So mind telling me what makes each them good cars for the race?" she asked. She was a little curious about the differences in the cars but she mainly didn't want to sit in silence the whole time until the race started. She looked up slightly from the car and saw the the driver was watching them carefully. "Probably so we don't do any damage to his car," she thought.

"People here are mostly into drifting, that's why they go to parking lots with many levels...not like in LA where we like the qarter mile. So you need a car that likes turns. That's a Honda S2000. Lots of people are into it. Mine's practically built for this type of racing as well." He turned away from the Honda just to give the driver some room. "Picture a Gran Torino in this parking lot and tell me who'll end up in the concrete pillars." More cars were arriving but no Mira or Cole yet. "Tell me something about yourself. Where are you originally from? How does a girl get along by herself here?"

Kira knew that most if not all the races in Tokyo were drifting just from being around for the past two weeks. She didn't even know the response to Brian's question because of her lack in car knowledge but she would have guessed the S2000. "Well I'm from Jacksonville Mississippi so I'm a long way from home. As for being here by myself, well its not easy especially since I stand out so much in a crowd." She motioned to her long blonde hair with a slight frown and continued. "It's also lonely because I don't know many people. Its gotten a little easier though."

If only she knew how much more miserable Brian was, who had to leave home for good, a job that was more of a true calling than anything and on top of that his family. Hearing her he could only frown. "Well, when you get too sick of it you can at least catch a plane and fly home." He neglected to stay 'unlike Mira, Cole or me.'

Kira nodded, "That's true." even though she didn't have the money to fly home she wasn't going to bring that up she could see him frowning so she decided to change the topic. "Why don't you tell me about you and your friends well besides what you said earlier. I know Cole, sorta, but you mentioned a girlfriend at the coffee shop." She was still a little on edge about him but maybe he wasn't all that bad. He had two other friends with him so he must have a good side to him.

The last thing Brian wanted was to talk about himself because there wasn't much he could tell her without giving away important information but if he wanted her to trust him and not put any pictures on the net he would have to be friendly. "My girlfriend likes cars,too. She's pregnant." He made a face because it still sounded so awkward. "Which is a really weird thing to say for me."

Kira nodded a bit with a small smile. "Well congratulation to you two. Hopefully things will be cleared up soon so you guys don't have to worry so much." She knew if what Cole said the other night was true then no matter what things wouldn't clear up but she wanted to sound hopeful for them. She looked around at the cars that were pulling up she recognized a few of them and the drivers from other races she had gone to. The parking lot was starting to get full so maybe the car Brian was looking for was here.

"Thank you." A small smile played on his lips when he heard that. She was the first person to say that. None of their friends or family knew. Suddenly it hit Brian. His family, his mother and father had be thinking that Brian really had commited the crimes he was accused of. They probably doubted it but were they sure? Brian needed to call home as soon as he got the chance.
From one moment ot the next he froze when his eyes fell on the shiny black paint of one of the stolen cars. Sure there were more than one of these but what coincidence would that be. Originally the car had been a dark shade of blue. Brian held his breath for a moment, then turned to Kra. "I need you to call my girlfriend again and tell her to come asap...tell her I found the car."
