“Watch out!”
BOOM!
June’s head shook violently around the cockpit. Over a radio, an announcer shouted in a classic announcer manner.
[And there goes racer 2 of Team Flash! That plasma bolt had to hurt! She’s dropped back about 3 places now, but her ship seems fine. Rapier team is coming in close on her rear, looks like they’ve got a weapon’s lock too! Team Flash’s getting hammered today!]

Over June’s personal comlink, a second voice shot out. “You’ve got to watch it. We need you in first place!”
“I know, I know.” June replied.
June could see the sleek, twin nosed exterior of the competing craft glisten in the sunlight as they whipped around the narrow track at over 1000 kph. “Goddamn they’re aggressive bastards.” She muttered under her breath.
From the roaring crowd stands, the 2 ships could be seen making their way down to the finish line.

[Only 8,000 meters to go!]
June’s ship streaked over a weapons pad. The randomization code meant that she had absolutely no idea what weapon she would pick up, but today, June wasn’t very picky.
On her HUD, a shield icon lit up. “Perfect.” June said with a grin. She slammed the trigger, and a bright luminescent shield materialized around her craft. Sure enough, the Rapier vessel behind her had locked on, and fired. From under the chin of the ship, a pair of missiles streaked towards June’s racer, slamming into her. The shield absorbed the blow, but began to break apart. This year, the safety code had been stretched to the max.
[5,000!]

June saw another weapons pad ahead. A big grin grew over June’s face. She had a plan. From a chase view, one could see the airbrakes on June’s craft fly open. Her ship fell back instantly. June then retracted them and pounded the throttle, sending her ship lurching forward again.
Once again, her race partner shouted over the radio. “What’re you doin?!”

The Rapier ship was now directly in her sight. The Rapier pilot quickly figured out what was going on. He shifted over from path towards the weapon’s pad, to the one that would take him over the speed pad. He hoped to outrun June’s attack.
“Aggressive. But they’re amateurs.” June laughed.
[2,000!]
The weapon’s icon lit up again. “Look’s like today’s my day.” June remarked.
From inside his cockpit, the Rapier pilot heard the computer speak. ~Quake~ it said. Calmly, and coolly. The Rapier pilot’s eye’s widened in horror.

“Eat this!” June shouted.
The track from the front of June’s ship ripped up. And a huge ripple effect shot out towards the Rapier racer as the track itself flipped up and tossed the ship away like a rag doll. It flew up and slammed into the side of the track, and continued to streak forward, showering everything in sparks, and flame. The craft’s armor panels blew away, and, and the ship exploded in flame. The crowds were protected by the shower of parts by a simple energy barrier.
[1,000! 500! Team Flash is the winner!]
June's ship streaked over the finish line. to the delight of thousands of roaring fans. Just then,
