Rhyme was in the garage throwing the last of his stuff in the backseat of a very common looking 2005 Buick. It wasn’t the most luxurious model but with what Rhyme had in mind that wouldn’t matter. Truthfully any vehicle would work, Rhyme would just need it as a base for what he was planning to do, but that was where the surprise was.
Rhyme and Haru hadn’t really had a chance to have any them time since Rhyme got control. The X-Mansion was a wonderful place, but private it was not. He wasn’t exactly sure what they were going to do but he hoped the one mutant nightclub was still open.
Mostly the stuff in the duffle bag he threw in the back was some random technology that would make working his magic easier. If the stuff was there he wouldn’t need to exert as much effort in making it come into existence. It included some speakers, a large hard-drive which backed up his music and just some random scrap.
For once Rhyme wore something different from his usual. He wore a dark purple with silver pinstripes fedora as well as a dark purple button up shirt. He wore a much nicer leather coat though it looked somewhat less comfortable then his usual beat up one. And for once he actually wore a nice pair of jeans. They had no rips, no tears, no fraying. Even though this was the least comfortable thing he wore in ages he still looked happy since he was finally going to spend some time with Haru.
He walked out toward the door of the garage and waited for his boyfriend to arrive. His back was turned to the vehicle and the trunk was popped in case he needed the space for anything Haru wanted to bring.

Haru sat there in front of the mirror for hours he couldn’t pick what to where this was going to be the first time him and Ryhme where alone for ages every outfit that he kept ‘trying’ on just didn’t seem to be the one or the hair or something was off he didn’t want to not be in drag but even under is drag illusion close instead of the normal jeans and shirt he was whereing black dress pants and a nicer shirt with a silk vest is illusion that he picked after houses was a silk dress that was a dark pink that ruffled with a under skirt that was black and a light lace black jacket His hair appeared to be in some sort bob cut and was a deep redish purple. Also there was a simple necklace and some bracelets picking what to where would have been so much easier if Ryhme would of told them what they where doing buy the wanted it to be a surprise and if this out fit didn’t mach then he’d make one on the spot of one that did Haru walked over to where he said he’d meat Rhyme right in fount of the garage. Haru smiled when he saw what he was wherein and drew close to him “my my what does my partner have in mind today to be so dressed up” Haru walked over and held Rhyme around the waist before giving him a small kiss.

Luke was tired searching his brothers car for his old game boy game he had dropped in there a few years ago. Cleaning up his brothers car while he was at the job. It was full of old McDonald's bags and such. Luke had been looking quite thoroughly under the seats, in the trunk, the only places he hadn't checked were the pockets, and the airbag storage, and he wasn't going to do that.
Sweet found it Luke rejoiced raised the pokemon pinball cartridge into the air, not realizing he was still inside the car. The cartridge hit the ceiling and went flying into someones trunk. Luke was very annoyed he hadn't slept in a few days, since sound man hadn't learned how to control his powers, he was starting to hallucinate. Luke looked inside the trunk and found the game, when he noticed a duffle-bag it looked just like a pillow to him. He got in the trunk and gently rested his head on the duffle-bag it felt pointy on the inside but he didn't put enough pressure on it to cause damage to anything. Luke closed his eyes deciding to rest for a few minutes.

Rhyme grinned broadened when he saw Haru enter. When Haru put his arms around him, he put his own arms around Haru’s waist. When he did he lifted the man up slightly deepening the kiss as he spun him around to show him the car that was waiting for them.
“I was thinking we would take a little day trip up to the city, see what new things they have at the shops.” He said breaking the kiss “Maybe hit a nightclub if the one I am thinking of is still open.” He continued his eyes sparkling keeping the nightclub’s name a secret.
His plan sounded somewhat ridiculous though for people who didn’t know the extent of Rhyme’s control of reality. At normal highway speeds it would take well over an hours to get to New York City from North Salem and it was already late morning but Rhyme had ways around that.
With another quick kiss Rhyme detangled himself from his loved one before going to the trunk and slamming the lid down without even looking as he turned and went to open the door for Haru. Once he was in Rhyme shut the door and get in on the driver side.
“I just realized something love, one perk to illusionary dresses, they don’t get caught on things.”
It was a small random comment but he only brought it up when he noticed that he would have shut the door on a part of the fabric, if it existed. It must be wonderful to be able to wear the most beautiful garments that would have been terribly uncomfortable without having to actually ‘wear’ them.
He also hoped that Haru wouldn’t smack him for what he was about to do to get them there in under 10 minutes.

Haru felt himself being picked up and the kiss deeping Haru gladly returned the kiss. Rhyme excorted him to the car and Haru smiled as she said his plan for the day it all sounded fun and he was wondering how he would pull it off but this was Rhyme nothing seemed to ever really stop him.
Haru smirked seeing the sparkle in Rhymes eyes “your hiding something form me pretty boy and if we are going to be clubbing then you should of told me I’d chose a diffent outfit o well I like this one maybe change into something a bit sexier before we go in” he smiled. There was one more quick kiss before Rhyme wiped around shuting the trunk and coming around to the door, he seemed to be very happy today.
Haru laughed at his little side commit “You just realized that dear, why do you think I do it all the time as much fun as it is to be in the real thing it gets to hot and how imbarsing is it to get your dress caught on things all the time also” He smiled it helps when you can change your outfit on the fly to what ever”
Haru smiled and leaned his head back a little closing his eyes he didn’t know how Rhyme was going to get to New York in any amout of time that would work out but just ment that they have a nice long drive to New york and if they stayed to late at the club they could get a room somewhere.

Rhyme shifted the car into reverse and turned it around and then shifted it into drive to drive out of the garage. As he got to the gate instead of slowing down he just waved his hand at it and a telltale pulse of energy emerged from his hand and they ended up driving right through the gate. He waited till they were a few minutes outside of North Salem before a wicked grin graced his face. “Time for the fun part.” He said as he banged his hand on the top of the dashboard and the sound system shifted from an older model to one of the most advanced ones ever seen. It had multiple sliders to control treble and bass as well as a mixer and multiple CD changer. (( Song Car)) As soon as the music began the charge shimmered and the top disappeared as the car shifted into a 2012 convertible. The interior changed to full leather and a stick shift rose from the middle as the shifter near the steeling wheel disappeared. The top of the stick shift was strange though, it had reverse and the normal 6 gears, but instead of a 6 for the final gear it had a speaker with 3 sonic waves coming out of it. “Hold on dear! And I wouldn’t stick anything out the windows!” he yelled out over the engine as he put his foot hard on the gas. They were currently on the highway driving south and he quickly shifted through all the gears. He turned and winked at Haru as he shifted into the sonic gear. When he did they were slammed back into their seats as the landscape and other cars turned into nothing more than a blur. They were going at the limits of Rhyme’s power, unless he was working with something that could naturally go faster, he couldn’t make something go faster than the speed of sound. Because of that the car was going at exactly 768 mph. It wasn’t exactly clear if Rhyme was dodging the other cars constantly or if he was just going through them. It was also unclear how he was making those curves but since he hadn’t used his powers in so long he was fine with brute forcing it. Inertia was something that wasn’t easy to mess with but it wasn’t hard either. His warning about the windows held true though. At this speed, the friction of air against skin would take skin off easily down to the bone or more. The only reason the car wasn’t melted from the heat was because Rhyme didn’t want it to. They were safe though because of the aerodynamics of the car, the windshield sent the column of air well over their head keeping them safe.

Luke had been asleep, he didn't know for how long. Before the car was riding smoothly enough that the inertia didn't seem to bounce Luke around at all. Of course that all came to a stop when he heard big time rush. Yawn, w-who's sing-in at this time at night? It's so dark I can't see a thi-*CRASH*.............. He was knocked back-words at the speed of sound, bout a half an inch, into a chunk a metal. Suddenly he didn't feel so tired, First thing to hit was his bottom with a loud clang as the bones hit. Luke was surprised, more surprised than when aunt Julia became his uncle. Of course then the rest of the body hit, the only way to put it is "very uncomfortable". Luke felt no amount of saying ow could make him feel better. About a minute later, Luke had realized where he was, he tried to open the trunk luckily it was unlocked. alright time to get out of... Luke could mostly only see a blur behind him a blur known as the highway. Luke then closed the trunk again, trying not to wet himself luckily. The big time rush wasn't helping, neither was the lack of sleep.

Haru wasn’t surprised when they drove right through the gate they drove for a bit but when that wicked grin came on Rhymes face Haru just gave a slight glare at him what was he planning now. Haru watched as the car changed into a much nicer car. “some one has been bissey “ Haru Smirked a little. When he said to hold on Haru made sure he was bucked and looked at Rhyme and saw the small sign with the speakers and the 3 waves coming out of him “O You are not…!!” Before he had finished he was pinned to the seat of the car he heard something in the back crash but he figured it was something else that Rhyme had in the back. “RHYME!!! YOUR CRAZY ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME “ This was going to get a good smake to the head at the end of this but not tell the car was stopped no reason to hit him now and see if the car was going to go off course. Haru didn’t know where they where going but this did prove one thing to haru after all these years Rhyme still chould surprise Haru and had tons of surprises up his sleeves.

Rhyme saw Haru’s lips moving out of the corner of his eye but couldn’t hear a thing over the roar of the engine and the music so he nodded his head quickly like ‘Dream of Genie’ and the sound reduced drastically.
… CRAZY ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME
He had to laugh at this. Haru should know better than anyone that he would never hurt his boyfriend or any of his friends willingly.
“Love, you should know to trust me by now.” His voice was full of mirth though so it was clear he wasn’t angry or accusing Haru of not trusting him.
In the distance the skyline began to appear and grew as each second passed. Soon the car began to slow down. They traveled what should have been 45 minutes in about 3. The song was winding down and Rhyme was applying the brakes. He let out a long focused breath though as he focused on reducing inertia for the entire car as he reached down and shifted out of the sonic gear. There was still a decent jolt though as they slowed drastically. The cars beside the honked rudely and subconsciously Rhyme stuck his left hand out the window and flipped them off as he turned and dodged people with uncanny accuracy and dexterity.
Nobody noticed the odd yellow glowing emerging from the tires that was letting Rhyme make such sharp turns and if Haru glanced in the rearview mirror they would see Rhyme’s eyes were also glowing gently giving him the enhanced sight to let him keep them all safe.
He turned onto the Bronx highway is he finally slowed down to normal highway speeds and the car tires and his eyes stopped glowing.
“Welcome back to New York City darling.” He said smiling as he gripped Haru’s hand.

Luke bounced in the opposite direction this time, luckily the transition of speed was relatively slow in comparison to the when they first moved to the speed of sound, he contemplated doing multiple things at that moment, going back to sleep, blindly placing a copy in the front of the car, and asking them to stop. He didn't know what to do, he had plans but they were all quite risky. This obviously wasn't a kidnapping though, there was no duct tape or rope. But that didn't make Luke feel much better, that just made this situation really awkward. Luke bouncing around like a potato sack, it was very painful. I'm starting to suspect i have a bad luck aspect of my powers. Alright is anything broken... nope, although I suspect my knee is fractured, might have a bloody nose. Luke raised his hand up to his nose, sure enough it was covered in blood, Luke attempted to a create a copy to use for a the jacket, to wipe his nose, with there was not room in the trunk though. Luke wasn't thinking straight he didn't know what would happen if he tried to spawn a copy on top of himself. But he did it anyway without noticing. Of course this led to him creating only half a copy, which is really a disturbing image, Luke made it dissapear immediately. Thank goodness he could hardly see a thing in that lighting.

Haru smirked when he said that he should know to trust him of corse he trust Rhyme but still moving at the speed of sound could kill people if he wasn’t careful. Once the song started to come to and end Haru watched the world around him start to move at normal speed around them. He turned back to Rhyme and looking down at the grip he had on his hand he smiled a bit more looking at the city after he said welcome to New York. He broght his hand to his mouth and gave it a small kiss.
“I missed this city its looks like its gotten bigger since I last came or is that just me”
Haru weighted tell Rhyme drove to where he wanted to go pulling off the freeway as soon as the car was stopped Haru smiled and turned to Rhyme leaning in looking like he was going to give him a kiss but right when he was close enough he hit Rhyme in the back of the head with his free hand “That is for trying to kill me” he smiled and then kissed him after the kiss was over he smiled “and that’s for taking me to New York”

Rhyme flinched when he got smacked but he wasn’t overly surprised. After the kiss though he smiled as he got out of the car.
“How about before we go home we will hit an art supply place and I’ll get you a full 256 piece color pencil set for your sketching? I remember you saying how hard it is to blend color pencils. But until then, what do you want to do? See who we know is still around, see a show or two or bounce around playing tourist?”
They had most of the day and a huge city to spend it in. Both knew the subways very well so even the furthest parts of the city were at most 20 minutes away. As he spoke though his sensitive ears heard something coming from the back of his car. He put his fingers to his mouth alerting Haru to be quiet.
He slowly walked over to the car absorbing the sound from his steps. In his hand a black steel kunai appeared. He rose the blade in the air as in the same motion he opened the trunk. When he swung down slightly until he noticed it was Luke.
“What the….Luke, you are one lucky son of a, why are you in my trunk?” he said confused and somewhat angry as the kunai dissolved and faded away at the same time in his hand.

Luke was mumbling to himself wondering who would make a car go at such ridiculous speeds anyway, mostly just because of the pain. Luckily he had a red shirt on though, Luke now having learned his lesson copied his shirt, to cover his bloody nose.
Suddenly the car he noticed the car had stopped. The trunk opened up revealing a man holding a large black kunai. Holy crap A giant black kunai... strange choice. Luke Momentarily spawned a copy of himself to take the hit, it was reflex. The copy disappeared as Rhyme addressed him Luke got out of the trunk still covering his nose with the copy of his shirt. Rhyme? Well that explains the big time rush, and I' m not sure if I should be called lucky or unlucky. I happened to fall asleep in your trunk, as to why there was a new mutant next door keeping me up.
Luke handed him his duffle bag, Made a nice pillow. He said in a slightly petty tone holding his shirt to his nose, trying to look serious and not laugh off the issue like he probably would have, for fear of looking crazy as well as stupid. He did not hold anything against Rhyme he was alive and that's what mattered. Don't ask how I ending up picking your truck either, it was a spur of the moment thing. long story. Kind of an accident.
Anyway I'll be fine injured my back slightly nothing broken. Luke had at this moment some bruises, burn marks, possibly a sprained ankle and a bloody nose. As he said he was fine...ish.

Haru smiled when he said that they could go and get some color pencils after they had finished the day then when he asked what he wanted to do for the day Haru thought a show would be nice to see for the night, Maybe if they found one of the old stage mangers that they use to know then they could get some free tickets for a show for the night they always keep a set with them. Then also playing tourist sounded fun it been awhile since Haru had seen New York and it bee good to see parts of it again.
Haru was about to speak when Rhyme put his finger up saying to be quite. Haru turned and fallowed gracefully to the back of the car with Rhyme Ready to attack what ever was in the trunk of the car. When it opened and a second latter Haru saw that it was that little kid Luke Haru sighed walking over next to Rhyme wrapping his arm around him there was a slight frown on Haru’s face.
“So Rhyme….do you want to explain why there some jailbait in your trunk of the car” Haru smiled a bit but it faded he lesion as Luke explained how he feel asleep in there. Haru bit his lip and looked to the poor kid and to Rhyme “Soo I think this might change are plans a bit babe unless you want to take Luke home we really can’t just leave him hear with nothing to do he might try driving your car” Haru gave a small wink to Luke saying he was kidding but Haru didn’t know Luke enough he might just do it for kicks and giggles there where a lot of people who liked fast cars and you can’t get much faster then this car now.

Rhyme opened his mouth about to say that the car couldn’t go that fast unless he was controlling it but paused. He still didn’t exactly know how his powers worked so who knows, maybe it would still go that fast but without the boosted controls to the turning or his enhanced sight.
“You may be right.” He said slowly as his brain processed the previous information. He then turned and talked directly to Haru sort of ignoring Luke “And is he still jail-bait? Anyway, I can’t really send him back. I could try but I haven’t perfected my space-time control if I am not in complete control of the entire areas involved. Think they would mind if only part of Luke got back?” he wasn’t really serious but his tone was. This was a bad habit of Rhyme, he got sucked into his mutation and how it worked. He was always coming up with new things to do or was researching how to do something he couldn’t yet do. Knowledge was a big part of his power, the more he knew the more he could do.
He then realized Luke was just standing there with a bloody nose.
“One of those things I know at least I can fix. I may have nearly failed biology but closing skin, easily done.”
He wiggled his nose as he stared intently at Luke’s face. His eyes flashed a brilliant yellow for a quick instant before going back to their normal purple color. During the flash Luke will have found that his nose has stopped bleeding. It would still hurt from whatever caused the bleed but the skin that ruptured was put back as it was.
