Liar, Liar, the Mage's Desire Vol. 4 (The Oumeno Menace)

Fast and Feisty: Drifting In Tokyo (17)

    "Thanks, guys!" Kiki said before speeding right back onto the road. Because of the delay, Kiki was a lap behind. "Okay. No more Miss Nice Girl," she muttered to herself and jammed down on the gas. Her engine roared to life and she soared down the track like a bat out of hell. She crossed the start line, now on the same lap as Mullet and Shun, but she still had yet to catch up to them. It was now down to two laps left. Kiki had managed to reach them. She pulled up next to Mullet, who was behind Shun.

    "Hey! Glad to see you back on track!" Mullet called to her. 

   "All part of the job!" Kiki replied back. "Now, if you'll excuse me..." She shot forward, taking her place next to Shun. 

   "HUH?!" Shun cried in shock. Kiki merely gave him a cheeky grin and inched ahead. Shun growled, slamming into her rear tire again. "I'll make sure you're out of here for good!" 

   "Aaah!!" Kiki shrieked, her kart spinning 180 degrees. Shun passed her.

   "Huh...that'll learn you," he muttered.

   "This kid is fuckin' psycho!" Mondo exclaimed incredulously, watching the screen. Shun turned behind him to see that Kiki was gone. 

   "Ha! Lost her!" he said triumphantly. 

   "Guess again, Angrypants," Kiki said. Shun gasped and turned his head the opposite direction. Kiki was next to him, winking and pointing a finger gun at him, and driving backwards! 

    "Nyeh!! Kokichi!! She's doing the thing!!" Himiko cried, grabbing Kokichi's arm. "She's doing what you did on Passion Point!!"

    "Nooo...WAY!!!" Kokichi breathed in disbelief.

   "WHAT THE...!" Shun exclaimed in utter shock. "H-How...?!"

   "Tee-heehee...I'll explain later, babe. I got a race to win!" Kiki laughed, reaching out to ruffle Shun's hair. "But first, lemme handle this curve real quick!" They were coming up to a turn. 

   "No way!!" Kokichi said, holding his breath, and holding onto Himiko's hands. "Is she really going to do it?!" Kiki sped ahead in front of Shun towards the curve with all the confidence she could muster. 

    "This is your moment, Chibi-Kichi," she murmured to herself. "You got this!" As she was coming up to the right turn, she slightly turned her wheel left. As she rounded the curve, she forcefully turned the wheel suddenly, sending the back wheels of her kart towards the direction of the curve. Time seemed to slow down as her kart drifted around the curve. She kept her kart steady as she narrowly avoided the wall in front of her while maintaining an angle as she drifted. As she neared the end of the curve, she slightly pressed the brake, quickly shifted back into drive, then spun the wheel in the opposite direction, flying straight forward like a shooting star. 

     "AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" Kokichi screamed, jumping up and down with Himiko in his arms. Proud tears streamed from his eyes. "SHE DID IT!!! SHE DID THE REVERSE DRIIIIIFFFFFT!!! AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!" The Casa V3 students, and even the audience, cheered wildly for her, as well.

    "Nyeh! Panta Bear, you're crying," Himiko cooed adoringly as she wiped a couple of tears from his face.

    "BECAUSE MY BADASS BABY COUSIN IS OUT THERE DRIFTING AND KICKING SOME SERIOUS AAAASS!!" Kokichi sobbed ecstatically. 

    "Mwa-hahahahahaaa!! Sweet mother of mochi, I did it!!" Kiki whooped. She crossed the checkered line, entering the final lap, when Shun suddenly pulled up next to her. He viciously rammed into her, his eyes red with fury.

   "I AM NOT GOING TO LOSE TO A STUPID GIRL!!!" Shun screamed. 

   "Ha! Hope ya don't mind losing to a clever one, then!" Kiki said, wiggling her eyebrows at him. 

   "Tuh...CLEVER?! " Shun repeated. He then began ramming his kart repeatedly into hers again. "You're dumb! You're weak! You're lame!" He tried ramming into her one more time, but Kiki slowed down and fell behind him, causing him to run into the wall. Then, she sped up right next to him on the opposite side.

   "Also cute and fluffyyyyyyyyy!!!" she said, and accelerated forward, leaving Shun behind. 

   "Grrr...AAAAAHHHHHHH!!" Shun screamed in anger. Mullet passed ahead of him. Shun tried to swerve ahead, but to no avail; Mullet was blocking his every opportunity to move forward. "GRAAARRR...I'VE HAD JUST ABOUT ENOUGH OF YOU!!!" Shun slammed the front part of his kart into Mullet's back wheels, sending Mullet's kart spiraling off the track, and soaring through the air before violently barrel rolling onto the grassy interior of the track.
