<b>Spook</b><br/><br/>Cat's bike jerked as its passenger left it. The rider jammed the brake as the clown got out in front of her. She pulled hard right to keep the bike upright, banking around a vehicle in the road, putting it between her and the clowns. She didn't so much as glance backwards to Spook.<br/><br/>The clown's bike was already off its center as the rider had reached to grab Spook. To suddenly have such mass move against it, physics took over. The rider released Spook's leg, grabbing the handlebars and jamming the brake in a panic. The tires screamed against the road, the front end pitching as it turned left. The tire bent under the momentum, the machine pitching down suddenly, the back end lifting. Sparks flew from the metal as it met concrete, the machine's frame twisting. The rider launched over the handlebars into Spook and the two were carried by momentum into the back of a vehicle parked on the side of the road. The clown hit first, smashing into the windscreen, and Spook into him. The impact of the woman into the man pushed him through the high tensile strength glass crushing and breaking, shards cutting into the rider. Spook's momentum carried her up and over the top of the car, spiraling onto its hood then down to the street in front of it. Pieces of bike hit the ground around her as the wreckage smashed into the back of the car.<br/><br/>Spook's Pain Threshold Modifier kept her conscious. Her right shoulder was dislocated, her left radial cracked. Her fibula would have shattered when it hit the hood of the car were it not prosthetic. Instead, there was a large dent where it had hit. She was scraped up pretty bad. The world about her was spinning, her orientation lost. Her mind tried to figure out what happened, her senses slowly correcting.<br/><br/>Ahead, one of the clowns whipped his bike around and was heading back towards them. The people on the side of the street had backed away, looking on, talking, pointing. They were carrying bags with products tucked neatly inside, logos stamped all over them. Somewhere nearby Spook could hear an advertisement for a clothing playing. The background noise of a store's music system.<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
