"Oh." Her eyebrows go up as she considers this. "I guess...I can see that. Thought earthquakes were bigger, somehow. But it takes a lot of force to pull a car into the sand."
Come to think of it, how much strength would it take? The sand around Gastown is fairly hard-packed, not like deeper into the badlands where you have to deflate your tires or risk being hopelessly bogged. The creature might have to dig the ground out from under its prey some.
"BOSS!" Throttle is crouching to look at something and yells out, waving them over. "You better look at this!!"
She starts, hand on her gun, but he doesn't seem to be under attack. She glances at the Spine, sets the kill-switch sequence quickly, then steps out and beckons him after her. "Stay close. In case we get jumped."
When she jogs over to Throttle, she's quick to notice what he's looking at. It's the front corner of a vehicle chassis. The rest must be buried in sand.
