Chaos is a good thing. A good thing,
specially for those who can see though it, who can make themselves
disappear in its smoke.
If you want to feel what chaos feels like, think of what runs in your head when you think of a bunch of dogs running madly behind a car. Remember that you are very near by when this scene is taking place. Imagine what runs in your head moments before you fully register all the facts in the scene presented above. Just to add to the whole scene, add a sandstorm to the scenario. So you have a bunch of dogs running behind a car for reasons probably unknown to the dogs themselves, and all this happening when virtually everything is wrapped in a thick sheet of sand. Now all of a sudden, you hear a screeching sound, like a car's brakes locking all 4 wheels desperately trying to avoid a collision course with a pedestrian, stopping just in time. It is at a junction entering a 4-lane speed-way. The pedestrian heaves a sigh of relief.

It is at a junction entering a 4-lane speed-way. The pedestrian heaves a sigh of relief.
You next hear a huge crashing sound
from the back of the car. Whatever made the sound threw the car 50
feet onto the middle of the highway.
A police car is in hot pursuit of an
over-speeding a Ford GT-40. The Ford, in all its glory appears like a streak
of blue and white on the expressway. But the one in pursuit looks no
less menacing. It almost looks like a battle of pure brawn, specially
if someone manages to notice amidst the sandstorm the Black and white Chevy Corvette C7 behind. You see, it ain't no more a case where only the
perpetrator gets the fast car. The world probably got a wake-up call
when the Vatican Police got themselves Lamborghinis.
All of a sudden, the Ford frantically
swerves left, then right to barely miss a car that exploded onto
it's line at a highway intersection. The swerve to the right turned
out to generate enough G-forces to lift off the right rear wheel,
then the right front wheel, then the left rear wheel, finally
followed by the left front wheel, basically putting the Ford into a
sideways cartwheel. It is quite THE spectacle to watch in ultra-slow
motion, with Beethoven's Symphony No.7 playing in the background.
The police man in the Corvette just
happens have adrenaline coursing through his bloodstream instead of
blood, hence leaving him with a super-heavy right foot. The police
car gets away from the scene just scratching the paint on its roof
under the truck's trailer.... Yeah, Cars don't pass under a trailer
in 2 Fast 2 Furious.
Meanwhile, the Pedestrian who narrowly
missed being crushed by the car in the first scene, stands and
watches all the commotion. The Police's Corvette comes to a halt in
front of the Ford that has just gotten over doing it's ballet dance
on Beethoven's Symphony No.5. The police gets out of the Corvette, gun
drawn out, pointing at the mangled mess in front of him.
The Pedestrian, still standing at the
junction, draws out a Remote-controller-kind-of-a-thing and hits the
red button on it. The Ford explodes into the air in a ball of fire.
The policeman is thrown backwards, but stays un-hurt.
In the next day's NEWS,
COMMOTION ON THE HIGHWAY! Speeding Car
Crash on Speedway. 1 Killed. Perpetrator MISSING. The pedestrian
picks up the Newspaper, reads it, and smiles.
