"This summer seems to have gone by so quickly," Ziva remarked as everyone sat down. The Danger Shop looked like a classroom for the moment, but the way she was grinning might have given everyone a clue that it wouldn't stay like that for long. "But you have all been working very hard, and I believe that you are ready for your final test."

"It might not be a surprise to learn that I enjoy action movies, and that I also love a good car chase," she said. "This one ~~from the Bourne Supremacy in case the link doesn't work~~ in particular is my favorite and it would do you well to pay attention." Once she'd finished the clip, she eagerly hit the Danger Shop controls, and the classroom turned into a Russian marketplace.

"Welcome to Moscow," she said. "Your final test is going to use many of the skills you learned here, to get through a modified version of that car chase. Of course, no one will be shooting at you, and if you crash, you will simply end up back here. Your goal is to get from outside of this market to the end of the tunnel with yourself and your car still intact." She showed them the course they'd be driving on a map, to try to make it clear where they should go. Getting lost was so not the point today. "You may drive on your own, or with a partner, it is entirely up to you." She gave them an excited little clap before waving them off. "Go on, let us see how well you do."

It's a little dirty, but it drives really well!

For the sake of the simulation, they're all automatic drive. (Boo hiss, stick shifts!) Go out on your own, or partner up with someone.

Effy was really more used to manual cars, but it would hardly be a complicated transition. Less things to think about, not more.

She picked herself out a car, with only a little nose wrinkle at the condition, and considered if she thought a partner for this sort of thing was a good idea.

Yeeeeah there was no way Francine was driving that. Not at the speeds she usually drove; she wouldn't make it to the highway before class was over. "Need somebody to ride shotgun?" she asked Effy.

Effy nodded carefully, and gave Francine an appraising look over.

"Any good at staying calm?" Because the worst thing had to be having someone screeching painfully loud in your ear when you were trying to speed around corners.

"....Sure!"

No, no she wasn't. However, she was good at silent white-knuckled terror, so Effy would be ok on that score.

Well, that sounded... sort of positive.

"Then sure, you can ride with me." Even offered a bit of a grin. "Could be fun."

Fear, Francine. Feeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeear!

That's right Francine. Fear.

At least it's all fake, right?

Effy indicated the car with a tip of her head. "Hop in (http://community.livejournal.com/fandomhigh/2209060.html?thread=143395108#t143395108) then."

Dinah grabbed a car, and looked around to see if anyone else ~~with a deathwish~~ wanted to ride with her.

For some things, Jack would be willing to ride shotgun. For this? Driver's seat all the way.

Jack hopped into a taxi, wishing it was a stick shift so he could do nifty things like in the video.

If anyone wanted to hop in, better do so quick before Jack floored it.

Leda had a bit of pent up energy to release, so this would work out well. The car being dirty didn't bother her at all. Most of the vehicles in Bordertown were jury rigged jobs anyway.

Ooooooh. Alice enjoyed the taxi being dirty. It added character.
