At 21:00 to the second she and Joey see most of the lights on the game area go dark. Most importantly the searchlights mounted on the three makeshift towers that blazed over the competitioners loose power too. In theory that should have drawn most of the attention to the stage, the only place left with light. Katie sees dirt swirling up there like in a storm without any good reason and it reminds her a bit of the paper fyling around in her classroom. A young hispanic man appears beside the singer of the current group,roughly punches the singer in the guts and holds her up by her hair. He moved so fast that he is still drawing afterimages behind himself.Katie sees all that clearly but despite the speedsters plans she is almost the only one. Since Enrique didn't do his job the searchligh mounted behind the state is still on and set right on Katie while she spins through the air after a spectacular jump and all the crowds eyes are on her now instead of watching the little posing on the stage. Joey hears a curse from above him and sees a broad guy in a dragonlike costume climbing down the tower beside him. He is about twenty yards from the stage and 30 from Katie. (before I forget Katie is 40 away from the stage. Of course there is a press of bodies filling the space.)With a moan Enrique stirs and draws his pants up, looking spectecularly dumb. To his luck Eris is the only one witnessing it."What the hell's going on?"At the entrance: Clair has just enought time to hear Truth answer."Fabulous I'm degraded to a phone book again. Nevermind, just get there I'll tell him."Their bikes just reach the gate in time to see the lights go out. Suddenly Jono loose control of his bike and it just starts to float of the ground. In the entrance stands a gaunt faced boy, he can't be more than twelve. His clothes look like it is composed of completly of black leather straps bound so tight they cover every inch of his skin. His face is covered completly in black makeup. Only the tanned skin of his raised hand his visible and as he moves his finger slowly Jono begins to spin around in the air. The boys voice sounds more like you would expect from a fourty year old alcoholic."Sorry, the party's closed."Speedfreak:</blockquote>
