Rachel reveals to the player that Caleb is attempting to take control of the racing scene in Bayview by manipulating the sponsorship deals in his favour, threatening the player's livelihood, and Rachel's liaison with the sponsors. Caleb is revealed to be the driver of the Hummer that wrecked the player's car in Olympic City. The player soon gains fame and sponsorship deals from winning races and gets the attention of 'The Wraiths' and their leader, Caleb Reece. The player arrives in Bayview, buys his first car using the money provided by the insurance on his totalled Nissan Skyline, and starts racing again. Six months later, the player boards a plane to Bayview with a good luck note from Samantha that also refers to her friend, Rachel Teller. A man with a scythe tattoo on his hand calls to confirm that he 'took care of a problem.' After a race, the player is called by an unidentified man with an 'invitation' to join his team and that he 'is not taking no for an answer.' The player ends the call without answering and starts driving to a party but is ambushed by a Hummer H2 that rams his Nissan Skyline GT-R, wrecking it. The story begins after the player has beaten Eddie and his street gang - 'The Eastsiders' along with Melissa in Olympic City and is now revered as the best street racer in Olympic City. The game was followed by Need for Speed: Most Wanted in 2005, featuring a plot unrelated to the Underground games. The Nintendo DS port introduces a new feature in which the player can design custom decals to adorn any vehicle in the game. The game has been ported to PlayStation Portable, under the title of Need for Speed: Underground Rivals. The game's storyline is presented in a comic book strip.
