Mutt, also the victim of physics, was already off balance when Jim flipped over her, and was sucked thereafter into the cannonball's turbulent wake. She avoided landing in the middle of it by a levitational feat heretofore only achieved by
Nadia Comaneci, and managed to jump clean over the melee. She landed running, a gray streak close to light speed, and she didn't stop until she got to Kate, behind whom she promptly took refuge, uttering a distinctly un-Muttlike whine.
