Preview for Once on This Earth: Haunted Camaro

She's not going to make it.

The idea flashed through Bumblebee's CPU the moment he calculated the speed and the distance between him and the upcoming curve. She was going far too fast.

He knew, then, that if he wanted her to avoid an accident, he had to take over - so he did. He felt the skid of his tires on the asphalt, and at the right moment, he fired up his engine again, putting in an explosive acceleration that hurled him ahead of the other racers.

And then he noticed, via his interior cameras, that she was no longer holding onto the steering wheel, and instead looked thoroughly spooked.

And Bee knew that was very, very bad.

"We have to talk - now."

Sam blinked at Caitlin. "Cait?" He rushed up to her, noticing the wideness of her eyes, the paleness of her skin. "Hey, are you okay?"

"Well, your car's-"

"Cait!"

Sam stepped aside as Mona, Doozy and Jin came over, Doozy reaching out to pick her up in a massive bear hug.

"You okay baby doll?" the big man asked, his voice low and husky.

Caitlin managed a smile then. "Yeah I am, Papa Bear." And she hugged him back, pressing her forehead against that spot where his neck met his shoulder.

"That was some good driving," Jin murmured seriously as he squeezed Caitlin's hand.

Mona smiled and kissed Caitlin on the forehead as Doozy set her down. "We thought you weren't going to make it chica."

Caitlin smiled sheepishly, before she turned to Sam, and her gaze sharpened. "Can I talk to Sam for a bit?"

The other three racers let her go, and Sam nearly tripped when Caitlin dragged him off to the quiet spot behind Doozy's pickup. "Cait, what the-"

"What is wrong with your Camaro?! It's haunted!"
