Elsewhere,

"Hi Curtis, ready to go for basketball?"
"Hey Jonah, hey Kasumi. You bet I am, I'm all set and raring to go."
Curtis gets up Jonah's blue Cadillac. Jonah then puts pedal to the metal and a surge of adrenaline pumping acceleration his all 3 passengers in his Cadillac. It was a modified prototype model that his company was testing, packed with a turbo boosted 600 horsepower engine capable of 0-100 in undder 4.2 seconds. Running purely on electricity, it could burn up to 6 hours of road time at max speeds. Stop by any point with a 3 pin consumer plug and you could charge it up to full in a matter of hours. Straightening his body as the car enters constant velocity on the highway Jonah gets slapped by both Curtis and Kasumi.

"Hey what was that for?"Jonah grunted in protest,"Reckless driving," came the short, curt and synchronous reply. Laughing it off, Jonah turned up the stereos and continued the drive. Within minutes, they arrive at the ball park. turning around a few bends to arrive at the parking lot they spot a red dodge viper vsx-270's with a charger hooked on its base.

"Look who's here!! He's always so early, I wonder why he wants the new prototype engineput into his car. He's always earlier than we are even without it."
"Stop complaining Jon, you have to avoid all those people in the office that's why."Answers Kasumi. They get down to the court and see Raymond warming up.

Hearing familiar voices I stood up and saw Jonah, Curtis and Kasumi up in the stands. Beckoning them to come down and join me i pointed to my bag at a corner of the court. I did a couple more stretches and headed to the side of the court to pick a basketball. Just as i was reaching for a ball, I heard a "thunk" followed by a scream.
