My arms were still crossed over my chest a half hour later when the car pulled to a halt.

“Oh, stop being a baby,” Georgie said cheerfully. “I just gave you a little help.”

“You pushed me,” I said in a flat, unhappy voice. “I am still totally pissed at you.”

“You won’t be pissed when we cross the finish line. You’ll thank me.”

I snorted. Fat chance of that happening.

My heart was still pounding in my chest from the jump. I thought I’d black out with terror, but somewhere in there, I’d appreciated the fall…

Actually, no I hadn’t. I’d hated every moment of it. But it was over now, and we were headed to the Maggia Valley looking for a place called Casa Martinelli Hotel Garni, which was the stop for this particular leg of the race.

“Oh, I think that’s it,” Georgie said, peering in the distance. “It’s cute.”

Ahead of us was a quaint white building, surrounded by trees and rocky hills. The roof reminded me of something old fashioned, a bit like Gargamel’s hut from the Smurfs cartoon. Greenery hung from a rail balcony, and as we pulled up, I could see the One Percenter team hanging out on the balcony, gazing out at the parking lot.

Below them, out in the grass, Chip Brubaker waited on the mat to welcome each team as they arrived.

“Grab your bags,” Georgie hissed, even as another car pulled up next to us. Damn it! We snagged our things and raced out of the parking lot and toward the mat, barely ahead of Team Houston. Those jerks must have sped like crazy to catch up to us – either that or Jendan and Annabelle got lost.

Someone shoved me, and I slammed to the ground as Team Houston bounded onto the mat a few moments before Georgie. My glasses went flying, and I sat up, peering around. “Um, anyone seen my glasses?”

“Oh no,” Georgie said. “Did you lose them? No one move!”

I patted at the grass near me. It was tall and bushy and bright green. It also looked like a blur. “I’m sure they’re around here somewhere.”

“Here, we’ll help you look,” said the guy from Team Houston, just as I heard an awful crunch. Then a fake “oops.”

Yeah. Ten bucks said that wasn’t an accident at all.

Great, now I was going to be going into the race blind as a bat.
