*~::[1-2] Moonlight Bridge::~*
[Stage 1 Cont...]

Passing through the Iwatodai Streets, you inevitably will find yourself at the cusp of the Moonlight Bridge. Take it...don't worry about the traffic or anything, it's not like anybody dies there...

...

Oh, wait...

...

Now I made myself sad...

Haoul Yamakaji And Kanade Tachibana

Haoul's engine quickly roared to life, pulling a good distance ahead of the silver haired girl as he gunned it.
"Is this a Race? Or are you just Too scared to catch up to me?" Haoul yelled back, revving his engine more as he weaved in and out of cars. He had a nice lead so far, but would the girl catch up to him?
Kanade bit her lip in a frustrated groan, before revving her engine, taking a safer path, but trailing behind by a considerable Amount. She moved through the Traffic, doing her best to follow the red haired figure who had accelerated a lot more right off the bat. She couldn't lose this easily....

Saiga Giriko
Saiga gunned her engine, passing through the traffic, and moving along the bridge. She managed to get out an early lead, but she couldn't afford to let her guard down.
"Tch.." she called, starting to weave in between the cars. It was relaxing, the way the wind blew against her face...Though, she couldn't let up with Him following behind her. Something about him just...bugged her.

[Zorc James]

As the traffic through here began to slow down Kiki-Jiki, he was forced to be behind and to play catchup just to get up to the front. He wasn't going to go easy on her.

Saiga Giriko, and Kanade Tachibana
Saiga giggled as she rocketed ahead of Kanade, starting to drive along the moonlit bridge quickly. She'd gotten the girl all riled up, which meant this was likely going to be a hell of a race.
"Come on Tachibana!" she teased, as she continued to drive. "You're gonna hafta fight for my man."
Kanade flushed, even as she drove, trying to catch up to the girl to clear up the misunderstanding.
"I'm not...He's not..." she called, before letting out a loud sigh. She wasn't going to listen to reason, was she? The only hope she had was to keep driving, and try to head her off. She'd have to explain as soon as she could about the...misunderstanding. This wasn't the kind of thing to joke about, and gamble in a race. Love was......Special..

[Great Ryoman!]

"You just came because you thought it sounded like a good time!"

"Maybe if you got lucky, you could be a hero."

"Woo hoo, later suckers!" Those were Yosuke's words about five minutes back when he'd ended up getting ahead of the pack, and he had to admit that it was the exhilarating feeling he'd always looked forward to with a motorcycle. Now that the race was moving forward that, he was feeling a different sort of exhilaration though, and a bead of sweat rolled down his forehead at the thought. "Don't go off the edge don't go off the edge don'tgoofftheedge-'' Yosuke flinched, the wheel of his steam bike turning suddenly as he saw the guard rail of the Moonlight Bridge coming closer. "No-hooo! I don't want to diiiieee!" Would he make it through the bridge alive? It was anyone's guess.


*CRASH*

"And that Senpai you were so sweet on? Her death was the perfect excuse!"

 

[Necromonium]

Faustus Necromonium
Faust was trying to take the path carefully, instead of zooming off quite like the others. Yosuke had pulled far ahead of them, followed by Nix...And even that bothersome guy had pulled ahead of him.
"Perhaps I should throw caution to the wind..." he mused to himself, as he started to rev his engines, aiming to try to catch up. He may have started a bit behind, but he wasn't going to be at the end of the line in this race....
Hopefully.
Though, for certain, watching Yosuke crash after starting to get ahead of himself was....
Amusing, to say the least. Even though he was still in front of them..

Eiji "Gin" Mishima

It looked like there were no glaring maintanence issues with his steam bike, so Gin felt a little disappointed when he didn't take the lead early on; even so, he didn't let up as they came to the Moonlight Bridge, the breeze coming up from the water underneath helping him to relax. He loved the feel of the open air, the wind on his face, the pavement under his tires...it was all somehow nostalgic to him, and it helped him forget the sorrows of his earlier battles."I will win this."

??? Nanjou, Unknown #1 Biker
"If I'm not Number 1, then I'm nothing."


"Hn, a good racer knows when to conserve his stamina. If you start too quickly you can end up stressing your motor. What a naive move." The four-eyes explained in a mid-race diatribe, quickly attributing his opponent's slight advantage to poor management of his bike and the like. For Nanjou, coming in number one was most important; it was the job of the superior class to overcome adversity, and shine as heroes for the plebs as unbeatable gods.

Kisa

A nice, leisurely pace through the opening zones had been a good start, but there was still a fair bit of the track to go. This was her first time on the course, and mostly, she just wanted to see what it was like.

Haoul Yamakaji, and
Jo(shu) Michieru
Jo(shu) was already starting to panick, as he pulled on the throttle...and his engine roared FAR too loudly to life.
"Ah s**t!" Shu yelled, as he struggled to turn, moving to try and avoid the other vehicles, as he pulled ahead. "Somebody Hellllllllllllp."
Haoul could barely believe his eyes, as the brown haired guy ROCKETED ahead of them, in a panic.
"Idiot..don't drive if you can't handle it." Haoul sneered, as he tried to catch up, moving and holding his arm out. "Hey Dumbass! Stop Pulling the throttle!" he snapped, before having to suddenly do so himself, avoiding a nasty crash with a Semi.
Damn...
Jo(shu) Clutched the throttle with all of his might, pulling.
"SSsssstttttooooooppppp."

"Don't fall behind...come on baby, come on!"Gin patted the seat of his gasoline spitting beauty as he attempted to recover from the unexpected start, crossing onto the long Moonlight Bridge again. The entirety of Port Island was brought together by it's central placement and picturesque place upon the skyline, but for a motorcyclist, the real fun was in blazing down the road.

Saiga Giriko
Saiga Kept her focus as she rocketed ahead of the pack, watching them trail off. It was far too early to celebrate, though as she passed the red haired figure, she blinked.
"Shu?" she called, the senior looking quite panicked, as he drove. "What's wrong? Haven't you ever drove on a bike before?" she yelled as they drove along the bridge, weaving in and out through traffic as she tried to keep an eye on Shu. He'd been...Remarkably uncool with how he was driving. Did he honestly jump into this, for his first race? Or.....
He wouldn't...
ZOOOOOOOM
"He is.." she called, having to swerve and brake to avoid running nto something.

[Zorc James]

It was never really stated that Zorc could actually ride a bike, but for what all he could, he was doing pretty crappy. Having to dodge cars, yelling with the traffic, yelling strange and incoherent obstenities
