“Right,” he announced. “Ready, steady – oy! Wait for me!”
The other two had already sped away. Spinechilla ran fast, and Titan ran even
faster.
King King began to pound after them, but he was soon left behind.
“This is a terrible idea!” he wailed.
“Keep running,” Lila called.
Titan got to the trees first.
“Nyah nyah nyah!” he jeered. He turned his head to stick his tongue out at the
other two.
He wasn’t looking where he was going. Next minute, he ran smack into a tree.
“Owww!” howled Titan. While he was staggering round in a circle, Spinechilla
raced past him. King King puffed along behind her. He had no chance of winning…
That was what he thought. But once they reached the trees, Spinechilla had to
slow right down. She was too big to twist and turn between them.
King King could twist and turn between them easily. Soon he was in the lead.
He galloped to the finish line. “Yes!” he shouted. “I am the champion! I am the
King of the Killers!”
