Chapter 11-The Crossways
And in a flash or blink of an eye...or two...Flashdrive lands them on some type of dirt track. Surprisingly, the landing was pretty smooth. Then...Vroom...Vroom...Zoom...that is when a furiously fast red racer car comes whizzing past them from behind and disappears around the turn.
A holographic checkpoint clocks their speed. Flashdrive and Digi-momma find themselves zipping and dipping along the track trailing way behind the red racer...in a mix of dirt and mud and digital elements all about them.
"Now where did you come from yellow racer?" said Cisco the Kid out loud to himself. Cisco was out at the track taking his remote-control red racer out on a test run to see how his latest adjustments were holding up.
Big Bro was standing beside him watching as well...and Big Bro got really excited watching the red racer whip around turn three and then was super surprised to see a yellow racer on the track holding a pretty close second.
Big Bro tipped off his Georgia hat and hollered, "Whooopeee...Whoo...Whoo...Whoo...just look at 'em go! Cisco, it looks to me that you got a real race on your hands. And the race isn't even until tomorrow."
"Like yeah, I know. I also know all the racer members around, and I sure have never seen the likes of this one. Plus, another interesting fact...it is definitely not registered to our club or entered in the big Saturday race tomorrow. Plus, that racer is weighted down with company...the racer windows are tinted like some Kool cosmic blue...we got a real racing mystery on our hands." spoke Cisco the Kid in return.
The race went on...Flashdrive was enjoying the speed he was able to generate in his newly morphed racing form...they were now on a straight-a-way and fixing to go to the upper level of the split course.
Flashdrive then spoke to Digi-mama..."Do you see that button on the left of the control dash that says don't push?"
"Yes Flash, I see it. Please tell me that you don't really want me to push it!?"
"Oh, come on now Sport...we got some major catching up to do...so ready, set, go...push it!!!"
Digi' mama clutched Digi-girl tight to her chest and braced her feet as firmly as she could...placed her finger on the button..."Here goes nothing!" She shut her eyes and then solidly pressed the button.
Flashdrive surged and bolted forward at an amazing, boosted rate and speed...Digi-momma was pressed back suddenly and forcefully by the accessed G-force that was activated. They began to gain on the slick and sleek stream-line red-racer making great time ahead of them.
"Well, who-ever they are...they got real potential...and just stepped it up a serious notch. Just look at that cosmic yellow racer go...streaming and screaming and whistling with power and speed."
Big Bro added his input to the matter..."They are coming at you so fast...they sound just like one of those wind-up toys wound up so tight that they are about to lose a spring and bust!!!"
Whooom....Whoooom...Whoooom....Ziiiim....Vrooom...Zoooom...
The upper level of the track was in figure eight formation...the racers were both nose and nose now...Flashdrive was trying to get the jump...and pass the red racer. But suddenly, Flashdrive went off track trying to pass on a curve. They were now racing and bumping along heading straight towards The Crossways Apartments.
"Hold on again...Digi-mama, I have careened off course...prepare to disengage the power thrust."
"Okay...disengaging now!"
"Yo Cisco," said Big Bro..."I got to get down to the Crossways...this doesn't look pretty!"
Big Bro starts running towards the apartments.
Flashdrive was doing his best to slow them down...he maneuvered past a flower garden, and around the small playground and then continued on to hit the pavement of the parking area in the main court of the apartments.
But it was too little too late...Flashdrive slid and spun-out of control in the parking lot....and SPLAT!!!!
Flashdrive slid and squealed and came to a stop but not before running directly into the paint operation immediately going on in the front of the office at The Crossways.
Big Bro made it to the scene...and proclaimed...
"Wooooo...eeeeee...is everybody alright?"
Big Bro dashed over to the Front of the office and began to help a drenched figure up from their crouched position on the sidewalk.
