Johnny swerves the 1974 Firebird out of the way of the rocket, tires skidding on the cracked pavement and sending up a censer of burnt rubber. The entire car shakes from the rumblestrips, which is quite inconvenient for Jackie Lee as he struggles to keep his balance on the hood. Fortunately, Johnny's driving had thrown the ninja Jackie'd been fighting off balance, and he'd been able to send him tumbling over the roof of the car.
Glancing in the rearview mirror, Johnny catches his silhouette as the ninja fall to the pavement, lit by the explosion of the RPG round.
Old man Wu, the grocer from down the street, leans out of the passenger-side window and -- damn if Johnny knows how -- summons a fireball out of thin air to lob at the white van in front of them. The mooks with the RPG pull the backdoor close before it hits, but the blast melts them right off and leaves the goons stunned. Behind them, on the floor of the van, Johnny's uncle struggles against his bonds.
Johnny guns it and pushes a couple more horses out of that ol' engine. The car howls as they creep up right behind the van: Jackie jumps over and delivers a swift kick to each of the putzes, and sending them flying out of the van to get personal with the pavement speeding by below.
And that's when things start to get interesting.
