Chapter 3: The Shift Plus demonstrated!

"So…picking a body and directly possessing the person, regardless of whether the person has a car or not…wow, that's rather radical." Syaoran said in amusement.

"Believe me, this ain't the best bit that you have seen yet!" John grinned.

John Tanner, Sakura, and Syaoran are in John's Dodge Challenger R/T 1970. Sakura and Syaoran wanted to see just what 'best bit' is John talking about. Tobias Jones departed the team temporary, saying that he has to see through his Chevrolet Camaro SS's maintenance which he had brought over to Nikon via Cargo Plane, since he heard of several reliable maintenance companies in Nikon. Alcom and Vikrant departed for their own private time.

"For example, I can pick a car, let's say, a cop car, then, if I accidentally collide into other car, the victim will not have any injuries because of some sort of psychic protection. I couldn't even believe it at first either! Plus, without Nitrous, I can somehow make the car accelerate faster than before, and even store energy to ram crooks!" John explained.

"For real? Thank goodness, I thought the victims will not have it easy." Sakura heaved a sigh of relief.

Just then, a red TVR Sagaris nearly ran the front of John's Dodge Challenger R/T.

"Whoa! Check out that jackass!" John frowned as he stepped on the accelerator, "Hold tight! Seems to be a good time to do a demo, eh?"

The Dodge Challenger R/T 1970 rumble as it accelerated upon the streets, chasing after the speeding TVR Sagaris.

"There he is; the red one!" Syaoran shot out.

"Watch me! Don't worry about the car; it can drive on its own even without me on the wheel, that's the ability of the Shift!" John briefed as he goes into his 'Spirit' mode.

"Okay…where that jackass go?" John scanned the area and quickly found the Sagaris.

"Here we go!"

*BZZZZT!*

John found himself inside a male student's body; Short, brown hair with spectacles, and green irises.

His passenger is a spiky, brown hair dude with a black t-shirt and brown pants with short nose.

"Look Paul, you can tell your mom that you're just drinking at my place last night and you're drunk. Everything will be fine!" the passenger chuckled.

John (who took on the appearance of Paul), however, sort of ignored him because he was looking for something to do a car stunt upon. It just so happen that a car transporter plane passes by.

John immediately does a handbrake steer and quickly stepped on the accelerator towards the plane of the truck. John's Dodge Challenger R/T 1970 tailed along as well as Syaoran and Sakura used their soul-detector magic to guide the Challenger R/T.

Before the passenger, Syaoran, or even Sakura can speak, the TVR Sagaris jumped the ramp off the Car Transporter Truck!

"Holy…" Syaoran gasped. Even Sakura is speechless.

"Ya see that, Sakura and Syaoran?" John grinned.

"Wha? Whaddya mean, Paul?" the passenger wondered.

"Um, it's my new name for you, yeah!"John grinned, after which he quickly rapid-shift back into his Dodge Challenger R/T 1970, much to the shock of Syaoran and Sakura.

"Oh my god…how is that maniac jumped of the transporter truck?" Syaoran gasped.

"That maniac is me!" John grinned, much to the surprise of both Syaoran and Sakura.

"What other trick you can prove?" Syaoran asked.

"Okay, what if I piss the cop off?" John grinned.

"You can do that?" Sakura's eyes went wide.

"Watch this!" John instantly shifted back to the jackass driver Paul. As soon as John shifted back to Paul, the passenger is seen ranting.

"I'm telling you, you just jumped the frickin' car over a transporter truck!" the passenger exclaimed.

"I did? Oh, we better find a cop and turn ourselves in!" John grinned.

"What? No!" the passenger exclaimed.

Both Syaoran and Sakura giggled at John's sarcasm.

Undeniably, John drove the TVR Sagaris straight to a Police SUV!

"You didn't!" the passenger exclaimed.

"It was the responsible thing to do." John replied.

"You're bringing the whole precinct on top of us!" the passenger retorted.

"You're right. WHAT was I thinking? Hold tight, I'm going to do ANYTHING I CAN to put things right!" John replied in sarcastic, albeit funny tones that send both Syaoran and Sakura laughing at the goofiness.

"Oh my god, we're gonna crash!" the passenger screamed as the TVR jumped from a downhill slanted slope, and it succeeded in landing upon the flat roads, nearly crashing to several vehicles, even a bus!

"Are you out of your mind?" the passenger shot out in fright.

"Haeeeyo!" John grinned.

Within minutes, the red TVR Sagaris successfully maneuver past the traffic, and drifted past several corners, enough to make the cops unable to detect the target. Soon enough, the car got off the 'Heat Zone', and escaped!

"That's a relief!" the passenger heaved a sigh of relief.

"Yeah, I bet the police won't be able trace us. Like with the plate. The make, the color. All that stuff." John grinned.

"God damn it!" the passenger exclaimed.

"Yeah, good luck with that!" John grinned as he shifted back into his Dodge Challenger R/T 1970.

"Incredible…I heard that this car is extremely difficult to drive! That's amazing, John!" Sakura gasped.

"It's good that the traffic ain't too much affected, it seems that the Shift provided Impact Protection in a large area-of-effect scale!" Syaoran confirm the theory on why the traffic ain't much affected.

"Really? I only thought it's in my dream, because I have experienced that seven years back." John wondered.

"Maybe the bouquet has expanded your power from the Coma-Dream into real life, which includes any power that you have unlocked like Impact Protection." Sakura added.

"That is just crazy…even with the soul-detector to detect you…" Syaoran amusingly chuckled.

"You want true wackiness? I can bet you fifty bucks that this car will hook upon a tow truck!" John grinned.

"Come on, your power can possess people with or without cars, prevent accidents by using Impact Protection, and even zoom in and out at extremely great heights, but even then, you can't do that kind of thing!" Sakura amusingly chuckled.

John grinned as he shifted back into the TVR Sagaris, just as the passenger is ranting.

"This is madness! What's got into you?" the passenger retorted.

"Trust me. You'll not believe it if I tell you, but I am going to hook us up!" John grinned.

Without hesitation, as soon as John sees a tow truck just a few hundred meters, he does a handbrake turn and immediately used his 'Boost' powers – ability to let cars accelerate greatly past their limits without Nitrous using psionic powers, to catch up to the tow truck and hook themselves up the hook!

"Wait a couple of minutes, and then punch me in the face as hard as you can." John grinned as he quickly shifted back into his Dodge Challenger R/T 1970.

"This….this is…whaaaa…." Sakura shook her head in disbelief.

As John maneuver his Dodge Challenger R/T 1970 to one of the alleys back in Burossamu…

"Whoa! There is no part of me that wants to believe what I just saw, even if my soul detector can detect it! That's…that's amazing!" Syaoran exclaimed.

"But you have seen it, right?" John grinned.

"Yeah…it's…damn, words fail me!" Sakura said amusingly.

"It's sure crazy, but, hey…maybe that's what makes this world a better place." Syaoran grinned.

"Duh! Think about it, every people in this city and beyond is a vigilante waiting to pounce at ANY slightest opportunity! Plus, I can do this without any regrets, doing what I love, and without any hurting due to Impact Protection, what fun!" John grinned.

"That's sure some confidence boosts for'em; think about it, no one will think they will be useless anymore without getting hurt!" Sakura agreed.

"Speaking of which, why isn't your partner here to see it?" Syaoran wondered.

"Oh, yeah…he said he's servicing his Camaro SS, but what's taking him so long?" John wondered.

Just so happens, John's mobile phone rings. "Speak of the devil" John responded.

"John! John, you're not gonna believe this! You're seriously not gonna believe this! My Camaro SS…it…it has changed!" Jones exclaimed excitedly.

"HUH?!" the trio responded in surprise.

When the trio got to where Jones asked them to be, at one of the AutoZone branches specialize in maintenance of muscle cars.

"Holy…isn't that…THE ZL1?!" John gasped.

"
