I drove home to check on my son. I hadn't seen him since the Water Realm, I wondered if he had left to go home or not. I was relieved to see him waxing his surfboard when I arrived. I said."Vert?" relieved to see my son came home. Vert said, "Hey dad, I found the note you left about your squadron being called up, I didn't think you'd be back so soon." I respond by saying "I just came back to get a few things, Is that a new motorcycle? Vert answers by saying "Oh yeah, it's just borrowed. My car got banged up a little." I said,"You should be more careful," . "Huh? That's what mom used to say to you... Every time you left, Be careful", Said Vert. I noticed that he was acting strangely and meant that he had been racing with Dr. Tesla and his car, the Deora II, had been cut in half and he barely escaped.

I went into the house to grab a few personal things such as a photograph of my wife who died a few years ago. I tell my son about Loyalty and Duties. "Do you know how sorry I am? That I had to be away so much? But duty had to come first. That's the real challenge in life, Choosing between two things when both of them mean everything to you." "Well, what if somebody else could do the mission better than you? What if you thought you couldn't do it? What would your duty be then?"Said Vert."What have you been doing, son?"I ask to see if he's willing to tell me the truth about Dr. Tesla and the Racing Realms."Just... Racing with the Teku," Said Vert. "I never liked you being with those street punks." Said I. "They're not punks," said Vert boldly. Afterward, I said, "What if I said, I want you to stay here until I get back?" "Heh, what are you grounding me?"said Vert. "I'm saying, you should quit what you're doing son." I take my suitcase out of the room and say goodbye. I return to the Silencerz HQ and as soon as I leave, my son returns to the Acceledrome because teenagers never listen.

Chapter 7: The End is Near

The next realm that opened was the Junk Realm. The other teams entered aware of our presence. I went into this realm with Dan Dresden, Alec Wood, Banjee Castillo, and three other drivers who drove cars of the Accelium and Covelight models. We got ahead of the other drivers while the Drones slowed the Teku and Metal Maniacs down with three sweepers. We waited for the teams to destroy the sweepers to get on the move. The Racing Drones were reduced to just a few RD-07 drones and a Spy Eye Recon Drone. We used an X-88 to detonate an EMP next to the Spy Eye, disabling it. Then our scientists gave us the all-clear, so we could finish the race.

After getting back on the track we saw a Mechanoid Destroyer designed by the Accelerons to breathe fire on us. Alec Wood shot a tiny sphere that overloaded the beast so it attacked him and sent him spinning through the air. He pressed the E.D.R. and was teleported back to our base. This allowed the rest of us to pass through. A few miles ahead the track split into four sections so we had to split up for a better chance of winning. Near the end of the realm, there were wrecking balls spinning around the track, drivers had to hit the right apex at every turn to get through. A Silencer driving an Accelium shot my son's car with an EMP and carelessly drove through the turns and was knocked off the track and had to hit the E.D.R.

My son realized that the skill for the realm was hitting the right apex at every turn. GIG sent us a message showing us what Dr. Tesla's crew had discovered, so we started doing that to make it through. Dan Dresden scanned Kurt's Battle Spec and was beating and banging with him at the end of the track. Taro had a difficult choice between which of them to attack. Taro spun Dan Dresden out, making him slide off the track and have to use the E.D.R. We had just lost for the first time in weeks. Fortunately, we all made it back to the base and were humiliated by our defeat even our X-88s were disappointed.

The Ruins Realm opened next, only two of us entered. Banjee Castillo entered with a soldier who drove Accelium. The two Silencerz hid in the shadows and used their camouflage to turn invisible. They witnessed my son drive Nightlife, a Motorcycle, through the realm. Vert was kicked by a Stone Colossus, this severely injured his leg. I was furious, I'm glad Nolo saved him, or I would have had to kill Dr. Tesla. The Racing Drones outran Banjee and won the Accelecharger.

We had read inscriptions about an Ultimate Race in the ruins. So we hatched an ingenious plan to let the drones enter the Ultimate Race and steal the Accelechargers when it's all over. We used GIG to replace the Accelechargers with powerless duplicates. Then we just had to wait for Drones to put their plan in action. We didn't have to wait long, The Teku and Metal Maniacs decided to go into the drones headquarters to rescue one of their own that had been captured by the drones. This gave the drones a perfect time to strike.
