章 71: Valor City

Cynrik barely had enough time to buckle his seatbelt as Cinyah pushed forward the vehicle's throttle, taking off and forcing his back against the seat.

Noticing the complaints from the back seat, Cinyah pulled back on the steering column, forcing the hovercar up at a steep angle while giggling at her children's expense; as they were pressed into their seats further. Unfortunately, while the boys had their seatbelts on, Rikard didn't, and the sudden acceleration and subsequent verticle climb caused him to bounce around in the passenger seat, startling him awake and making him yelp loudly.

"HONEY, SLOW DOWN! AHHH, WE'RE GUNNA DIE!" Rikard screamed, making Cynrik, Cinyah, and Brance burst out laughing at his sudden onset panic. The brothers were prepared for their mother's crazy driving, but poor Rikard made the horrible decision of falling asleep on takeoff.
