## Plot

### Prologue

I look at my clock in fear as the Acceledrome explodes. I fear that my son, Vert Wheeler, will not make it out in time. Thanks to our drivers and scientists, Tesla’s hologram will create a portal to our base. But then, I watched Reverb exit the portal leaving me relieved. Tesla has taken so much from the world. He has ruined the lives of many, of which my son has barely survived his plot. X-88 drones surround the vehicle while a scientist grabs the Circle of Wisdom and my son. Relieved to see my son alive and unharmed, the scientists examined the car and found the Accelechargers. Who are you? Said Vert, “What are you trying to hide?”.I walk up to him with Dan Dresden and Banjee Castillo, by my side. I took off my visor and said, "Son, we need to talk." My son's eyes open wide, and he says, "Dad"?

“How could you lie to me?”said Vert. To that remark, I say, “You think I lied, while you follow a traitor. Were Friends, Family, and a Brotherhood,” I said. “We are an elite squadron of spies, the best of the best from around the world.” “You stole technology from Dr.Tesla. You sabotaged us, you turned us against each other”, said Vert! “Lies, Tesla’s told you nothing but lies, yet you’d risk your life for him, We did what was necessary”.“Your men left me in the Junk Realm after you zapped my car with an EMP,” said Vert. “You shouldn’t have even been there, you volunteered to risk your life for nothing but thrills, when we were taking care of it,” I said. “We were saving the world from the Drones. Some things are more important,” said Vert. “Do you know how embarrassing it is for me to have an unemployed son in a street gang? I’m a member of the most elite force in the world. And you not only don’t have a job, but you fell for Tesla’s blatant scheme.” “The Teku are my life,” said Vert. To his ignorant statement, I say “The Teku are expendable street punks, Tesla using you to do his dirty work after he sent four world race drivers to their doom. It’s a miracle we saved three of them.”

Dan Dresden and Banjee Castillo removed their masks and visors, Vert’s jaw dropped. And then, some of the other drivers removed their masks, Vert recognized one of them, Alec Wood. “Alec, you're alive, I thought you were lost in the realms.” “Your father saved me; these guys are sick,” said Alec. “Vert, everything Dr.Tesla told you is a lie to get you to work for him,” I said. “Tesla used to work for us, and his lust for power corrupted him. He stole our technology for his selfish motives.”We learned how to enter the realms, so we could save drivers, win Accelechargers and stop Tesla and the Drones. And we helped you get past the drones.” “You think you're the good guys; you're deceptive, cowardly, and violent”, said Vert.”And I bet one of us is a spy or something.” I answer by saying, “GIG was our spy, Tesla stole him from us and attempted to reprogram him, but our robots are programmed to override all reprogramming attempts.” “You're a liar”, Vert ran towards me and the Silencerz grabbed him and dragged him away while he screamed, “The Teku will make you pay for this!”

It’s a shame Tesla has manipulated my son, nobody should be this disrespectful of their father. Good thing we’ve won, the Earth is safe, the Drones have been destroyed, and we have the Wheel of Power and Accelechargers. But Tesla is still at large and the Teku and Metal Maniacs will not rest until they’ve found us. But when they find us, we will be ready, Dr.Tesla will pay for what he’s done.

### Chapter 1: SCRIM

It’s a long story how we got to this point. I’ve known Tesla for years, and it’s a shame my son had to get involved. When I was my son's age, I'll admit I did some street racing. My son is eighteen now and he had always liked skateboarding, surfing and had always wanted to be a driver. The cherry doesn’t fall far from the tree, I’m a good driver. That’s why I’ve risen up the ranks here in the Silencerz. The Silencerz are an elite squadron of spies from many nations around the world. We specialize in high-speed operations and espionage. Our base is underground in Europe where many countries send their most elite spies and drivers. Many assets serve us; Dr. Tesla was put in charge of SCRIM, one of our best assets. Dr. Tesla invented Nitrox 2 and a new kind of car that could reach 300 MPH. While traveling around the world, Dr. Tesla found ancient inscriptions and interdimensional breaches.

Dr. Tesla claimed that he had found a way for humanity to become an interstellar species, to solve the world’s energy problems and that interdimensional aliens called Accelerons had left everything we need on Earth. I agreed to fund robot exploration of the interdimensional breaches. However, his remote-controlled robots kept failing to figure out how to get through the interdimensional race tracks. So he formed an elaborate scheme to succeed in his plan. Finding some of the world’s best drivers to race through them. The project was expensive but he funded it himself with the SCRIM Corporation.

While Tesla prepared for his race to find the Wheel of Power. A rival agency began to intervene. A northern European robotics company called Clyp became interested in finding the wheel. The Racing Drones had been dormant in the Arctic for thousands of years. In the 20th century, their leader RD-Queen awoke and discovered that humanity had developed automobiles. She took control of Clyp by killing their president, a woman named Gelorum, and stole her identity and skin to make her android body look human. Clyp found Kurt Wylde, a Grand Prix driver who had been chosen by Dr. Tesla to participate in the World Race. Gelorum deceived Kurt Wylde into working undercover.

Dr. Tesla searched far and wide for some of the world’s best drivers. He found Banjee Castillo, Brian Kadeem, Pete Karris, and several others. Tesla created the Deora II for me because he knew that my son and I liked to surf. My son achieved a perfect score on his driving test and Dr. Tesla noticed. Out of cowardice, Dr. Tesla left the Deora II on my driveway, so my son would follow the GPS into the desert. This is insane, he took advantage of my son for personal gain that easily. Fortunately, Vert didn’t sustain any injuries during the race. I was proud that my son won the race and then took the wheel back because it was the right thing to do. However, I was upset that Tesla didn’t ask me first about letting my son in the race.

Over the next two years, SCRIM served as a valuable asset to the Silencerz. We began using experimental metals, such as Unobtanium, on our vehicles for enhancements. Combining the excellent cars made by SCRIM with top-secret military technology created some of the coolest and most efficient cars in history. Following the World Race, we investigated the Clyp Agency which started to suspiciously search the arctic. We discovered that they were unearthing the Racing Drones to build up Gelorum’s army. Dr. Tesla was still obsessed with the interdimensional breaches and studying the Wheel of Power.

### Chapter 2: Tesla’s Betrayal

We started to crack down on the Clyp Agency. We froze their assets; we attempted to destroy Gelorum, but she escaped. The Racing Drones had been united, and they had one purpose, to race. The Racing Drones searched for interdimensional portals to reach Hot Wheels City. We saw them attempt to reach breaches at Tesla’s Complex, but Dr. Tesla stopped them.

Tesla knew that the Drones needed the Wheel of Power. I remember the day he went rogue. He abused our technology to create his car Nitrium. Then he made a huge mistake, one that cost us everything. He designed Nitrium with a device to lure the Wheel of Power from its resting place by tapping into its vibrations. Tesla went rogue and drove off in the stolen car along with GIG which he attempted to reprogram. He stole our technology and lots of government resources. His abuse of our tech, his lack of respect for clearance, and his ego lead to us deciding to stop him before he ruins everything.

Tesla drove through the four legs of the world race until he made it to the Wheel of Power. He was racing against the drones, like them, he wanted the wheel. Dr. Tesla drove up the tower with the Wheel of Power. Nitrium lured the wheel towards itself which allowed the Drones to capture it with their plane. Tesla fell and Nitrium was almost destroyed, Fortunately, Tesla escaped using an experimental Emergency Driver Return.

Subsequently, GIG saved Tesla and he suffered permanent injuries because of the drones. Dr. Tesla started to hide from us. While on the run he built a new headquarters called the Acceledrome. He found a crew of drivers to exploit for his experiments. They included Dan Dresden, Alec Wood, Banjee Castillo, and Lani Tam who served as a mechanic. We noticed what he was doing using GIG as our spy.

### Chapter 3: Peril

The realms were dangerous, the drivers failed to beat the drones who became more powerful through each realm. The first realm Tesla’s crew entered was the Monument Realm. We did not enter it, but we saw how Dr.Tesla’s crew did. The Monument Realm was full of statues and marble tracks. There were twists and turns around every corner. Drivers needed to decipher riddles on the walls to choose what path to follow. The realm was full of pyramids and boosts that energized cars. The drones were using them to their advantage, however, the drones were not as good at deciphering the hieroglyphs. Tesla’s drivers were able to figure out which direction to go pretty easily by analyzing the hieroglyphs. The Drones split into groups going down different tracks which allowed them to get ahead. Consequently, the human drivers barely made it through the portal in time.

Two days later, we had designed our hologram of the wheel and a track for our drivers to enter the realms with.The first realm we entered was the Fog Realm. I led a team of three brave drivers into the realm. I drove Iridium while one of them drove Technetium while the other drove Accelium. I drove into the portal with my two companions. I was shocked to see very little of the realm due to heavy fog. The Track had twists and turns and we could never see much of the track ahead. Good thing this was the first track we entered, the other drivers barely saw us due to the fog. Sections of the track were Hairpin turns that we could barely see coming. Sequentially, near the end of the track, there were Stone Spires covered in Acceleron symbols. We saw drones ahead of us smash into them and explode. We swerved around them and saw Sidedraft crashed into a Spire with Dan Dresden, its driver unconscious. I grabbed him and put him in my passenger seat. The Drones finished the race and the rest of Tesla’s crew followed.After the race, Dan Dresden joined us and we gave him a choice between multiple Silencer vehicles, he chose Covelight.

The next realm to open was the Warped Realm. The Warped Realm was the weirdest realm I've ever seen. As soon as we entered we noticed that the laws of physics were strange, fortunately, we added an E.D.R. function to our vehicles. The first thing we noticed was that everything was distorted. rays of Light seemed to stretch and the tracks were impossibly shaped. The Tracks had holes throughout them that made them difficult to stay on. Gravity was weird, we could drive upside down and on walls, and gravity still held us to the track. Gravity was nonexistent in some sections, so we had to drive quickly through them so the inertia would allow us to reach the tracks ahead.

Dan Dresden followed me through the tracks while one of our drivers used Nitrox at the wrong time which sent him flying into the abyss. Near the end of the Realm, the Tracks twist, and maintaining control is almost impossible. The Drones were right in front of us, and we could have caught up with them. However, Alec Wood was thrown off the track and his car Switchback spun around while flying through the realm. Dan Dresden used his Nitrox booster to launch himself off the track to catch up with Alec Wood. Meanwhile, I drove through the strange tracks but failed to catch up with the Racing Drones Lieutenant who drove RD-08. He drove through the portal and won the Accelecharger.Dan Dresden continued to fly through the abyss to save Alec. By then Kadeem, Banjee, and I had made it through the portal. Only a minute was left on the clock and Dan Dresden busted the window of Switchback and caught Alec before pulling him into Covelight. Finally, Dresden pressed the E.D.R. and the car flew through the portal into our base. The portal closed, and we had lost another race, but we had saved another driver Tesla’s crew failed to save.

The next realm to open was the Swamp Realm, It was just as hard as the Warped Realm. The Drones struggled to get past the organic monsters that stood in their way. They were all destroyed because they failed to find a line with the best traction. Of Tesla’s Crew, only Banjee Castillo went into the swamp realm.I drove through the realm along with Dan Dresden and Alec Wood. Alec Wood drove Anthracite for the first time. We saw Banjee drive Ballistik through the realm until a Behemoth Mosquito grabbed his car and carried him away. The Realm was about to close, and he had been left to die in the swamp, his car was sinking and he was going to drown. We were afraid to reach the end of the realm, so we had to use the Emergency Driver Return to get back. Alec Wood drove on a nearby tree to reach Banjee. he saved him and used the E.D.R. to teleport into our base. The realm was not completed, and nobody took the Accelecharger, so we would have to wait for it to reopen. Banjee thanked us for saving his life and agreed to join us. We showed him his choices for a new car, and he chose Technetium.

### Chapter 4: Teku and Metal Maniacs

After Tesla lost all but one of his drivers, he needed a new team to exploit. Meanwhile, my son, Vert Wheeler was eighteen. He had joined the Teku, a street gang. I was embarrassed to have a son involved in illegal street racing. The Teku got into a race on the coast against their rivals the Metal Maniacs. Dr. Tesla sent GIG to inform them of the Racing Drones and entice them to join him. The Teku and Metal Maniacs agreed to join him, despite Tesla offering no reward.

The next realm that opened was the Storm Realm. In this realm, we didn’t enter it with many drivers, only Alec Wood entered. It was the first realm the Teku and Metal Maniacs entered. We saw from GIG and Alec that the Teku suffered heavy losses. My son barely escaped, so I was furious. Tesla had manipulated my son to do his dirty work without even prize money. The Teku entered 4 more realms: the Swamp Realm, Cavern Realm, Lava Realm, and Water Realm. We weren’t very active at this time which allowed them to get two of the Accelechargers.

After failing to complete the Water Realm, Vert Wheeler abandoned the team. It was then that we began to discover the team's insecurities, differences, and disadvantages. We started to send more drivers into the realms, and we started to win. I entered the next realm, the Metro Realm, with Dan Dresden. My car was Iridium while Dan Dresden drove Covelight. The first thing we saw after entering was heavy traffic full of automated cars. We made it through with minimal damages by the realm cars. But then we realized it, we could disguise our cars as driverless cars to hide from the other drivers. We disguised our cars and soon realized that the driverless cars could not distinguish between them and us, so they didn’t pose a hazard to us.

We left the freeway after Karma and Kurt who drove Battle Spec and Chicane. After driving for a while through the confusing streets, I found a Caterpillar Hyperpod and drove over several of the realm cars. While I drove through the realm in the Hyperpod, Dan Dresden disguised his car as an RD-02 and chased Kurt. The portal was on the edge of the freeway. Taro Kitano was in the lead but I was gaining on him while I disguised my car as an RD-02. While right behind him I shifted by disguise into Kurt’s Battle Spec and to make it look like Kurt was working for the drones after hearing what Dan Dresden told me about Kurt’s past working for Gelorum. I rubbed against the rear of Rivited causing him to spin out. I drove through the portal and won the Accelecharger. Dan Dresden followed behind me, easily getting past the Drones, Teku, and Metal Maniacs who wasted time-fighting each other. This was the first time we won an Accelecharger. From GIG’s information, we knew how to use Accelechargers, and we did a few tests to study them, However, we never brought the Accelechargers into the realm. Accelechargers aren’t very useful, and they're too valuable to risk losing.

### Chapter 5: Winning Streak

We won the next three realms before the other teams noticed we existed. The next realm that opened was the Cliffside Realm. The Drones started using Sweepers in almost every realm, this made them overconfident and waste too much time fighting rather than racing. I entered this realm with Alec Wood. I drove Iridium while he drove Anthracite. We hid under the noses of the drivers.

We disguised our vehicles as RD-06 units. The turns were sharp so we had to drift around them. The Drones sabotaged Shirako Takamoto by having a sweeper drone crawl under his car; baseline and damage the Nitrox tank. The Acceledrome Crew realized that if Shirako uses his Nitrox his car would explode. Shirako is always listening to music, so he never listens to his comlink. Kurt had to push him off the track to force him to use the E.D.R., saving his life. We outran the other drivers after the incident with Shirako and came near the end of the track. But then a Mutant Vulture appeared from out of nowhere and dived toward us. I drafted with Alec Wood who drove Anthracite in front of me, this way we reached the portal back to back and Alec won the Cliffside Realm Accelecharger.

The Ice Realm was the next realm that opened, However, only Dan Dresden entered it. The Teku and Metal Maniacs didn’t enter with that many drivers either. Taro Kitano had a rough run through the realm. He barely escaped the drones using a Caterpillar Hyperpod but RD-L1 used the Slam Ram Hyperpod to destroy it. Taro drove his Rivited down the final stretch of the realm. Dan Dresden had been racing disguised as an RD-06; he passed Taro and changed his disguise to Karma’s Chicane. Taro removed his lava plow and Dan Dresden rammed into the side of Rivited. Taro spun out and Dan Dresden won us another Accelecharger.

We knew that Dr. Tesla and his associates would discover us, so we grew our forces and entered the next realm with more drivers. The Pipeline Realm was the next realm to open, five of us entered it. I Drove Iridium, Dan Dresden drove Covelight, Banjee Castillo drove Technetium, Alec Wood drove Anthracite and three new drivers drove Accelium, a copy of Iridium and a copy of Technetium. We were the first to enter the realm and see the Neon lit pipeline. We saw that the track opened up and wanted to see the track from above. So we jumped out of the pipeline and drove on top of it. The other drivers wasted time running from sweepers and fighting amongst themselves as usual. The drone’s sweepers did nothing but pose a hazard. The sweepers got stuck in the pipeline and sent their drivers on Motorcycles to reach the end of the track. We drove as a fleet above the pipeline so we didn’t have to deal with the closing doors and blockades. Our X-88 drones served as scouts telling us which pipelines to drive above and where the drivers were. I decided to enter one of the pipelines and scanned Monkey’s car Rollin' Thunder.

Shirako Takamoto was riding down the pipeline with his Motorcycle Nightlife. An RD-07 shot his bike with an energy ball that knocked him off. The Drone was about to kill Shirako with the same weapon, but I saved him by smashing the drone into a wall. Consequently, Dr. Tesla pulled up behind me and penetrated my camouflage exposing the existence of the Silencers. “You can’t get away,” said Tesla. I used a special modification to my Iridium that allowed it to split into two Magnesium motorcycles, One was piloted by a drone under my control. I drove away from Dr. Tesla and traveled down the pipeline.

I reached a pipeline near the end of the track. I was ahead of Taro Kitano with my drone while an RD-07 was gaining on us. I ordered my drone to destroy the RD-07 with a head-on collision. I ordered Banjee Castillo to deceive Taro by taking the disguise of Chicane, and he succeeded. Taro was tempted to attack Karma with his Lava Plow for retaliation but decided not to. This allowed Banjee to turn off his Camouflage and use his E.M.P. on Taro’s Rivited, cheating him out of another Accelecharger. The rest of our drivers followed closely behind Banjee while I stayed in the lead. We drove through the portal as a team and I felt the Accelecharger materialize in my hand. We had won four Racing Realms in a row; we had worked together better than any other team. But the Teku, Racing Drones, and Metal Maniacs had discovered our existence.

### Chapter 6: Home

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.

### Chapter 8: The Ultimate Race

The next realm that opened was the Cosmic Realm. Only Alec Wood, Dan Dresden, and one other driver in a Technetium entered for the Silencerz, They laid low and only cared about winning. The Racing Drones strived to win rather than fight the Teku and Metal Maniacs in this realm, However, The Teku and Metal Maniacs put their plan in action to hijack a Sweeper to infiltrate the Racing Drones Headquarters to save Markie. Alec Wood and Dan Dresden raced past multiple Drones and came near the end of the track. RD-L1 was in the lead with his RD-05 truck. Alec Wood passed him and Dan Dresden pushed RD-L1 off the track causing him to float off into the abyss. Alec Wood won the Accelecharger and Dan Dresden followed closely behind him. We had won another Accelecharger; I brought it with the others for my plan to unite it with the other Accelechargers. The Teku and Metal Maniacs, except for my son, drove into the Drones HQ. One Silencer went through the portal surrounded by drone vehicles in his Technetium to steal the Wheel of Power. The Drones had already left to raid the Acceledrome and unite the Accelechargers.

I drove Iridium into the Acceledrome I hid inside Tesla’s storage under my vehicle's cloak. Lani Tam snuck in and found the Swamp, Cavern, and Junk Realm Accelechargers where GIG had hidden them. GIG floated in and said, “The Accelechargers. Dr. Tezla gave the drivers copies and hid the real ones here.” “Why would he do that?”said Lani. “Dr. Tezla is obsessed with protecting the Accelechargers. He no longer trusts anyone. Not even you, That's why you can't tell him you know where they are.”said GIG sinisterly.“I'm taking the Accelechargers to Dr. Tezla,” Said Lani. “I can’t allow that,” said GIG as she stepped backward and bumped into my Iridium. “You're in no danger, Lani. He's just here for the Accelechargers.”

“You're working for the Silencerz!” Said Lani. “As did Dr. Tezla, Until he stole their most advanced technology. Including me.” Said GIG. She grabbed her Accelechargers and ran off, I chased after her but she made it through the door. “We can still catch her,” Said GIG. I wandered around looking for her as the Racing Drones swarmed the Acceledrome. An RD-S1 walked in and blasted GIG leaving him wounded, I cloaked myself to hide from it. The Drone searched my Iridium and stole our Accelechargers. Luckily, I kept the Pipeline Realm Accelecharger in my pocket. Gelorum united all the Accelechargers except the Pipeline Realm Accelecharger which I held onto. The Portal opened up allowing Gelorum to enter The Ultimate Race in her RD-09, My son chased after her in Reverb, A car given to him by the Teku. I disguised my car as an RD-02 unit and cleared a path for him using my EMP to blast a few RD-02 units away allowing him to drive onto the track. I turned my camouflage back on and hid among the other drones.

Vert and Gelorum raced through the realms we had completed on their quest to reach the Accelerons. In the Racing Drone Headquarters, the Technetium driver disguised himself as an RD-02 and followed several other RD-S1’s, but diverged from the pack to free the Wheel of Power from the Drones control. He used the E.D.R. to get back to our HQ where our scientists were waiting for him. They started to tamper with the Wheel of Power and realized that we could open a portal directly to our HQ so my son could escape after returning from the Ultimate Race. I watched my son return and save his friends from the drones before GIG rigged the base to explode. I drove away from the base with Alec Wood and Dan Dresden as my son raced for his life. We used the E.D.R. to teleport back to our base, and I watched in horror as my son barely made it through the portal.

### Epilogue

So that’s how we ended up in this situation, my son fell for Tesla’s scheme and now he’s even more alienated from me. We had to lock him in a cell because he attempted to attack me. Vert still thinks we're the bad guys even though we are the ultimate team. We defeated the Drones, We won all the Accelechargers, and whether Vert wants to admit it or not we saved his life. If we hadn’t tampered with the Wheel of Power, Vert would have perished in the explosion. Out of all the other teams, we were the only team that wasn’t dumb enough to bring Accelechargers into the Racing Realms. They were just a test and only brought more harm than good. We relied on stealth and speed to win rather than the other teams that just fought each other. And now we have fourteen Accelechargers and the Wheel of Power in our possession. We are the true winners of this race.

I walked into the cell where we are holding my son, and I slid my ID card across the mechanical door. The door opened up and I saw my son looking at me like a monster.

"Do you have the impudence to show your face here" said Vert? “Why son, why don’t you have any respect for your father,” I said. “I saved your life, if it weren’t for us you would have died in the explosion of the Acceledrome.” “Tesla puts you at risk for personal gain”.“Oh, so that’s how you abducted me with the portal", said Vert. “The thing is you can spend the next year under house arrest, or you can join us”, I start to explain.“The Racing Realms are going to start opening, there are still sixteen more symbols on the Wheel of Power that must be realms yet to be completed.” “I’ve designed a new car for you, one that transforms into a battle suit.” I pulled out a piece of paper showing the designs for Titanium, our newest car. “If you join us, it’s all yours” My son’s eyes open wide and he looks at me, I wonder, will he accept my offer or will he decline.
