Chapter 4: Dead Race

Cyborg pulled ahead of most of the racers and went into 3rd place. The only 2 racers in front of him were Casey Wright and Anthony Dark.

Anthony slowed down a bit and raced right next to Cyborg on his right side. Anthony issued him to roll down his windows.

"What?" shouted Cyborg.

"You think you have what it takes to win?" said Anthony with a dead grin.

"You bet," said Cyborg, "Now just move out of my way!"

"Not a chance tin man," said Anthony. Then he started to ram Cyborg on the right.

"Oh?" said Cyborg, "You want to play dirty? That's fine with me!" He sped his car into Anthony's pickup. But he went right through him.

"Did you forget?" said Anthony, "I'm a ghost, I can hurt you, but you can't hurt me." He started to laugh evilly, punched on the gas and sped away from Cyborg.

"Crap," said Cyborg. Then he noticed that the fight with Anthony made go into last place.

"Even more crap," said Cyborg. Then he sped up and gave the chase.

After like a minutes, a huge fog rolled up. It made very tough to see the road in front of him.

"Man," said Cyborg, "I have seen this fog before, just right before… oh crap." Then he punched on the gas and he saw the black semi emerge from the fog.

"This damm thing again?" said Cyborg looking behind him, "I got to shake this thing."

It was pretty hard too, the semi followed every move he made. It was like as if it knew what Cyborg was planning to do.

The semi sped up and caught up with him. It moved onto the T-Car's left side rolled down his windows. Cyborg did the same thing.

"What makes you think I'm going to let you past or live?" said an eerie voice coming out of the window.

"Very good," said Cyborg looking ahead of him, "Because you're not going to make the turn."

Up ahead of them was a sharp corner that only a slow car could make. Cyborg smiled and punched on the breaks and watched as the semi went off the road and vanish before it reach the ditch.

"Booyah!" said Cyborg (I think that's how you spell it), "See you later." The fog then cleared up and shown the racers ahead of him.

"Red X's is ahead," said Cyborg.

Red X turned his head to see who was coming up behind him. Cyborg was speeding up and closing in on him.

"Not a chance freak," said Red X. He used his ghostly powers to lift his motorcycle off the ground and then he jumped onto the T-Car.

"Get off," said Cyborg growling.

"Not a chance," said Red X. Then he placed a red X bomb on top of the roof. Red X jumped back onto his motorcycle and the bomb went off.

"So long," said Red X looking behind at Cyborg, but he was still there.

"How is that possible?" said Red X, "You should have been killed."

"I pressed a button and the top of the car flew off," said Cyborg, "It's detectable roof sucker."

"You're dead," said Red X.

"Not before you," said Cyborg punching on the gas and ramming the motorcycle (remember, Red X maybe a ghost, but his motorcycle and suit are real and can take damage).

"You stupid son of a…" said Red X, but he didn't finish. He went off the road and his motorcycle and e explode on contact with a pine tree.

"Another one bites the dust," said Cyborg. Then all of a sudden, he was rammed by the ghost teen coming out of nowhere from behind him.

"Nowhere to go," said the teen giving a death grin. Has he grinned, his skin started to peel away revealing his ghostly skeleton.

"I got to stop him," said Cyborg, "But how? I'll just go right through him." Then he spotted Anthony coming up ahead of him.

"Prefect," said Cyborg speeding up.

"Oh you again?" said Anthony, "I'm getting tried of you." He started to slow down so he could ram him from the front with his back.

"Just what I wanted you to do," thought Cyborg as Anthony and the ghost teen move in for the kill. Cyborg at the last second spun out of the way and watch has both ghost cars collided launching the jeep into the air and a spin and crashing the ground. Meanwhile, the pickup knocked over onto it's side smashing the whole right side. Then the jeep crashed into the pickup again causing both of the vehicles to explode into ghostly flames.

"Now I only have…" started Cyborg, but he didn't get to finish. Casey Wrights appear from behind him and started to ram him.

"Thanks for getting rid of most of the competition," shouted Casey, "You and the Slade guy are the only people standing in my way of winning."

"Not again," said Cyborg. He was out of options, no more people to get Casey to drive into, and no more ways to run him off the road. Nothing left to do.

"I got to get away from him," said Cyborg.

"No way you can win," said Casey's voice.

"Where?" said Cyborg looking around, he had vanished.

"I'm your head idiot," said Casey, "There is no way you can win this. I'm the champion."

"That would never stop me," said Cyborg, "I'll never give up!"

"Too bad," said Casey, "Now your doom." He then reappeared in front of him. Then all of a sudden, Cyborg's vision started to go away.

"What's happening?" said Cyborg.

"Just my favorite trick in the book," said Casey's voice, "My vision fixer, or destroyer."

"I can't see a thing," said Cyborg.

"Actually," said Casey, "No way you can win know if you can't see."

"I got to try," said Cyborg. He reached for the auto pilot and accidentally turned on the headlights.

"What!" said Casey, "Turn the stupid…" But his voice faded away, then Cyborg's vision returned to normal.

"What happened?" said Cyborg. Casey had vanished from his sight.

"Who cares," said Cyborg, "He's gone. I got to reach Slade and beat him. I'm running out of time." He looked at the clock. It was 1: 51 am. He had 9 minutes to reach Slade and beat him, or his friends belong to Slade.

"Got keep moving," said Cyborg stomping the gas pedal. Soon, Slade came into view. Now came the big challenge. Beating Slade.

Slade looked behind him, he could see Cyborg coming up. He said to himself, "He's still alive? Fine, I'll just have to do kill him myself."

The truck opened up, and two rockets flew straight out and at Cyborg.

"Come on," said Cyborg spinning the T-Car out of the way, "He's got to do something better than that to beat me."

He looked back at the missiles that past him. They started to turn around and come back at him.

"Crap," said Cyborg, "Homing missiles. He thought this out carefully."

He started to speed up again. He had a good idea.

Cyborg started to get even closer to Slade's car. Slade looked at him in his review mirror.

"What is he up to now?" said Slade.

The missiles started get even closer to Cyborg and he said, "I got to make this count."

He bumpier Slade's truck. This got Slade frustrated. Then he started to push Cyborg's car back. Then he relized what Cyborg was doing.

"Crap," said Slade, then he push an eject button and was launched from his car. He watched as Cyborg moved out of the way and the missiles slammed into his truck causing an explosion.

"I'll be back," said Slade, "This isn't over yet."

"Booyah!" said Cyborg, "I'm going to win this!" Then the clock turned to 2:00 am, and a huge white light appeared, and Cyborg blacked out.

"What was that?" said Cyborg when he rose. He looked around him. All the titans were back.

Cyborg and his friends were back on the road where Cyborg was racing. They all had fainted apparently.

"I guess I won," said Cyborg getting to his feet.

"What happened?" said Robin waking up.

"Yeah," said Beast Boy, "All I remember is a diner and that's it."

"Nothing happened," said Cyborg, "Let's just get back moving." Everyone agreed and got back into the car and continuing driving.

Author Note: The race has ended, but they still have to get past the rest of the trip down Route 666.
