Chapter 14 Summary

Blake and Quinn’s spaceship speeds through the nebula. Several structures and items from their lives fly past them, including the buildings on the posters in Blake’s room. They dodge the Leaning Tower of Pisa and other landmarks. With only ten minutes left until dawn, Cassandra arrives in a ship and blows a hole in Blake’s wing.

Quinn pushes the unlabeled buttons in the cockpit until he finds the weapons’ triggers. With Cassandra matching his moves, Blake realizes that she can predict his behavior. He tries to think like Quinn and performs a risky move, ramming the ship into the Arc de Triomphe and pushing it into Cassandra’s. They use other objects against her, finally flying through the zeppelin Hindenburg. It explodes, catching Cassandra in its explosion.

Cassandra’s ship crashes. Blake flies away from the ride, but first must navigate a field of falling cars; rather than safely go around it, he puts up the ship’s blast shield and drives straight through. Beyond the cars, a galaxy spins like a turnstile. They fly through it.
