The light left her and jumped to the car that had just flipped on to its head. It was like a bull had rammed into her and she was shaken to the core but her foot slammed the accelerator to the base of the world!
The Swamp Ass took off, leaving her brain behind. Kate could almost feel it running up behind the Swamp Ass, like it was chasing the bus.
"Swamp girl!" Sakura's scream pulled her back to reality.
She was deep in the shadow of the largest monster in the collection, would its path hold? Would she be crushed like a bug? Did she have time for such thoughts?
She pulled the handbrake turned the wheel and punched the accelerator. The Swamp Ass jerked and twisted, but moved the same way as the beast car at a diagonal angle and the Swamp Ass bumped and the rear bounced. It screeched spinning against open air before gravity slammed it down. It created a whole other kind of screech heavy and weighty enough for her to feel the hand of god slap her whole body as one and the car launched forward.
She'd left her brain behind again.

Kate brain finally caught up.
"Roscoe is it! What do we do?" Gen yelled.
Kate eyed his position verses the goal post. It was further back than it had been with her.
"Leave him. Go after all the refuels." Kate yelled.
"What about Roscoe?" Sakura asked.
"All of them!"

Gen had been the first to drive over the first slot to collect, then Kate
"He's slowing down."
"Leave him to me." Kate yelled.
She watched the car she'd knocked over. It was still upside down.
"Sure! Look out!" Gen screamed.
Time slowed, but it meant nothing.
It was too late. It didn't make sense. But the big car had somehow gained speed enough to go directly at her, pincered the Swamp Ass between the flipped car and the wall.
It was time to pick a path.
The Swamp Ass turned sharply, going too fast to actually change direction so instead its skinny front jerked towards the big beast and that Swamp Ass's butt carried on in its own mission dragging by its momentum. The behemoth getting closer until it was all Kate could see. They collided.
There was a crash, a weightlessness on her body, then a weightlessness on her waist and then, inevitably the hand of god pushed down on her head and Kate's candy floss neck gave up even trying to stay in place.
The world flickered, flashing on and off, sound escaping, flickering constantly.
Then all vanished.
