A medium sized cracoa dog turned the courner behind them. It slid to a halt and sniffed the air. Turned toward them and ran at full speed at them. Ryan moved out of the way just as the dog barreled into her sister. "Rain!" Eric said happily as the dog licked her face.

"Great," said Ryan non to happily.

[Shizuka]

"And this is who's crocadog?", Sammy asked raising an eyebrow.

[Xazz]

"Shes' Eric's," said Ryan and sighed as Eric giggled as Rain licked her master's face. "Her name is Rain."

[Shizuka]

"She's kinda... cute. How old is she?", Sammy asked.

((i just love dogs... and animals... and they like me back!))

[Xazz]

"Uhhh... six?" Ryan asked herself. "We really don't know, Yang found her a long time ago when she was just a young one. And we didn't know how old she was then. And you know how long these things can live!"

[Shizuka]

Sammy laughed. "Yeah, I used to have one before a guard shot him. ((you'll love his name...)) Skrat was a good crocadog.", she said.

Ryan snorted and Eric pushed Rain off of her so she could stand up, wipping dog slobber off her face. "That sucks," said Eric. "No one should loose they're dog, right Rain!?" Rian barked.

[Shizuka]

((dammit... i'm stuck))

[Xazz]

"Now, how about that race?" Eric asked.

[Shizuka]

"Okay, where are we racing to?", Sammy asked, a smile forming on her lips.

[Xazz]

"Hmmm, well we're in the Industrail section," said Eric thoughtfully her hand on Rain's head. "So how about to the Farming District? Use any short cuts and alternate paths you want. Meet in front of the gates to the Forest. That sound good?"

[Shizuka]

"Sounds great to me.", Sammy replied, smirking. She knew a few good shortcuts here and there...

[Xazz]

"Alright then," said Eric and put her board down and hopped on.

"Laters!" Ryan yelled, the other two looked and saw she was already down the streey.

"Cheater!" Eric yelled and kicked off on the ground to get the board going chasing after her sister in hot pursute.

[Shizuka]

"No kidding!", Sammy said as she chased the other two girls on her board. Surprisingly, she was able to get a good boost and keep up with them, almost like a train.

[Xazz]

Ryan looked behind her and laughed, Eric was being chased by not only Sammy but by Rain as well. To give herself some more speed she kicked off on the ground with her foot sending her at a even higher speed. As she did so she jumped onto a railing and ground around a courner before hopping off.

[Shizuka]

Sammy heard Rain's barks as the crocadog ran after her and the other two. She shook her head and took the corner, almost cliping the building and a guard. "That was a little too close...", she muttered and hopped onto a bit of railing to get her speed going. She ground the whole rail, almost hiting a parked zoomer had it not been for the fact the there was a vertical pole sitting just above it. "That's two close calls... what's next?", she asked herself.

[Xazz]

The girls in front of her were playing dardevil, proving that despite their young age they could handle their bourds better then some professionals in Haven. Every now and then one of them would jump over the other doing a complete flip over them and landing easily.

At one point Ryan swirved away from them and made for another street. But Eric kept going, Rain following her.

[Shizuka]

Sammy watched the two, chuckling when they did. She took a sharp right, headed down a different street than Ryan had. "Not as many 'close call' type of things down here as there are the other streets... although there are still a few.", she whispered, pushing against the ground to get her speed up even faster.

[Xazz]

Ryan looked around a second then pushed down on her board. It in turn shot up after a moment and catipulted her upwards onto the cat walks of the Industrail section. She did it again and she went onto the roofs. It would be easy to beat them now.

Eric had much the same idea, only she kept to the loward parts using ever shortcut she knew and her extensive knowledge of the streets workings to get her through the place quickly.

[Shizuka]

Sammy had a similar idea, only it took her through pipes large enough for her or something to fit through on a hover board and still have a little room to manuver and do a few flip tricks. Not to mention, it'd get her ahead of the girls, if she knew where she thought they were going.

[Xazz]

Ryan made it to the Bazaar in less then three minutes. And then she started jumping across the streets from building to building.

Eric wasn't so fortunet. While she was looking back at Rain to make sure she was still following she ran into somone. She flew off her board and looked up at the person she had run into. He was so familier and her eyes widened. Other then Jak, this guy had a wanted poster on ever store window in Haven, and then some!

She felt strength leave her. And she vaugly wondered why Rain wasn't running up and barking madly at him. But now that she thought about it, she was glad she wasn't. He looked down at her, his gray eyes flashed.
