AMÉ, THE GOD OF... and ASTRID all turned their heads as they heard a sound, within that same second of their burial by SAGES landmine.
A sound that would give any racer a run for their money.
One that had GUN HEAD see his life as a racer flashing through his mind.
"TZZCC... TZZCC... KRACKER..... KRACKER... WEEEEEEEEEEEEN..."
""~{AHHHH. SHIT}~""
They all said simultaneously in their minds, looking at the completely black •DARK AVENGER•.
Everyone within the next 500,00 FRIS radius of DAP01 knew it was over fir them. Even SAGE, knew there was no escaping this for him as he had yet to even move 100,000 FRIS away from ASTRID.
The COLLOSALS at the back. Decided it was pointless to transform. After all, this was the most durable form for their •LEVIATHAN•.
DAP01 on the other hand was completely ready to do this.
He had infact always wanted to this.
SAGE'S landmine only made it better. 'Cause even if STAR was out of range she was sure to still not catch up as she would be deeper in the ground than they were originally meant to, as a result of BOUNCE BACK.
And time plays for everyone.
"BOOMMMMMMM".
An explosion had covered 500,000 FRIS around •DARK AVENGER•.
What had become of the racers.
"WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW. DID YOU ALL SEE THAT? DAP01. DOES IT AGAIN. WAS THAT ANOTHER PERFECT BOUNCE BACK.... WAIT NO THAT WAS THE NORMAL ONE. BUT EVERYONE WAS CAUGHT IN IT, EXCEPT FOR STAR... THIS IS. A SERIOUS. GAME CHANGER". Yelled the head commentator.
He continues in his rant on how crazy and unexpected this was for a whole minute, from the moment it happened.
"THIS IS BEYOND UNBELIEVABLE. WHO WOULD HAVE EXPECTED THAT? ESPECIALLY WITH WHAT •BLUE SENDER• JUST DID TO THE TRACK. NO RACER WOULD SEE A BOUNCE BACK COMING RIGHT IN THEIR MIDDLE.
DAP01 REALLY THOUGHT THIS THROUGH. BURSTING THROUGH EVERY SINGLE HAIL STONE WASN'T JUST RECKLESS AND STUPID. IT WAS ALL AN ACT TO ACCOMPLISH A PERFECT FINALE INTO THE NEXT LAP.
STAR MUST HAVE PREDICTED THIS ALL ALONG. THAT WAS WHY SHE STAYED IN LAST PLACE, AT A DIST...."
"UHMMM... I THINK THAT'S WRONG. STAR ISN'T IN LAST PLACE. IT'S THE HOST. AMÉ AND HIS •PIXYCLE•" The assistant commentator cuts in.
"EHN?"
"AND FROM THE LOOKS OF THE LEADERBOARD IT SEEMS LIKE DAP01 JUST DIED". He added.
"EHNNNN?"
...
Back at that same second when DAP01 hit the button to start BOUNCE BACK.
As everyone within his 500,000 FRIS range gave up on running. Especially those who were already stuck within the SAGE'S landmine.
Which was everyone but SAGE and his •BLUE SENDER•.
AMÉ looked at his tiny green and black monitor, checking and calculating the exact distance STAR and her •STAR BUILD• was from DAP01'S •DARK AVENGER•.
A perfect steady 700,000 FRIS.
"Haha. So she knew he was going to do this. Did they plan it or... Seeing as this idiot is literally closest to me. I believe he wants to take me out of the race, 'cause of PIXILATE. HAHA".
"WELL TOO BAD. I AM... THE GOD OF GAMES".
--__--__--__
He instantly switched places with STAR.
"SORRY Dear. This is only temporary". He says smiling as she appears next to DAP01.
"Well, I would have turned into PIXELS but, the timing from that idiot was too good and he's just too close to risk it. Anyways, STAR should be okay. After all, that's the •STAR BUILD• ... Or not. HAHA". He adds laughing under his breath.
STAR who realized she was now next to DAP01 and an already exploding BOUNCE BACK, knew she was done for.
With her still not having won a lap, a direct hit meant elimination. But with DAP01 who had two laps to his name. Perhaps killing him and taking one of his respawn points for herself will be the best option.
Without thinking twice.
As BOUNCE BACK began exploding, about to envelope everything within it's range.
"BOOM".
The •DARK AVENGER• got blown to smithereens.
STAR used her hair to cover the whole are with explosions from her laser beams, which she made to mimic the explosions from BOUNCE BACK.
Although she had taken some damages from being the closest to DAP01'S •DARK AVENGER•, in return she had eliminated him and given him a whole 5 minutes reboot before his respawn at that spot.
The exact time frame needed for BOUNCE BACK to end.
Meaning, she would be able to perfectly get away before he comes back.
She needed to, because she didn't know how he'll return.
If he was going to come back with the damage she just gave him, by bursting her hair through every part of the •DARK AVENGER• and shooting her laser beams from within.
Or if he will return in a completely repaired •DARK AVENGER•. Which still spelt doom as he would be able to easily over take her in that damaged state.
She began transforming her hair as she pulled it back to her from destroying •DARK AVENGER• and causing an explosion everywhere.
"PING".
A gold coin with +1 appears where DAP01 was.
As she transformed into •STAR NEEDLE•, she picks it up.
A lucky drop for her.
Killing a racer with a respawn point, meant they'll drop every other point they had while they used up one for their respawn.
She smirks with her pink lips stretching to the left. "Thank you, but I'm NOT SORRY... Better zoom off before he respawns".
"PWOOOOM".
And a pink flash of light burst out of the smoke.
