I went over my plan, and stuck with it. Time to put it into action.

I read for the crowbar at the end of the hall, hit Brett over the head with it, bolt out the exit, and fly out.

My window was approaching. Now or never!

I flapped to the crowbar just hanging on the side.

"What the hell?"

CLANG!

I smacked him straight over the skull with it, Brett hit the ground like a ton of bricks, he was out ice cold.

"Holy shit, did I just do that? Oh buck, I hope he has insurance for that..."

"Did you guys here that?!"

"Oh buck me"

I took my chance, and bolted for the exit doors. My window closing fast.

"There he goes! After him!"

I could hear Cold Luck and Brimmer running after me, closing the gap.

I hit the pair of double doors like a bull, having them fly open like a pair of flaps. I looked around for my exit, and saw an opening at the track entrance, I could see some guys start to close the exit for the end of the race, and I wasn't going to be stuck in here looking for another exit plan.

"C'mon! After him!"

Cold Luck and Brimmer crashed through the doors, right on time too, I was just about to take off.

I hit the track faster than I did in the race, flying for my life. I flew as fast as I could, my exit closing, I raced faster and faster. My pursuers closing on my tail. I could make it!

I pushed myself to the limit, pinning the throttle. Faster than before, faster than ever. This time, I raced for my life and my soul.

I could feel that this was going to be a close one.....

FWOOSH!

I flew through the metal gate just as it closed. My body just clearing the gap. I took one last look at my pursuers, as they crashed into the gate.

BAM!

"They're done for! TKO! Cobalt Blue wins!" Oh yeah! Suck it!"

I totally forgot though, Brett wasn't the guy to just have two goons go after me. I realize that right at the moment I should have flew off.

Just then, about 15 pegasi, just as big and brutal as Brett, came down from the sky and landed right behind me....

The ride wasn't over yet.
