"What did you forget? Can't it wait for tomorrow?" The driver asked impatiently.
"It is some paperwork my teacher wants me to accomplish for him, and I need to finish it today. Can we go back?" Sorcha said, pretending nothing's wrong.
The driver turned silent before saying, "I'm sorry young miss. I also need to do this."
He didn't turn the car, but he directed it towards the near, empty sidewalk.
Sorcha calmed her mind. When the driver was about to stop the car, she suddenly launched onto him, making the driver be caught unprepared. She is holding a knife in her left hand, while her right arm is wrapping his neck.
She whispered, "drive back." Her voice, though still have a hint of childishness, seemed matured and cold. She's looking at the front, and at the side mirror. Her calm appearance made her look as if she's not pointing a knife to threaten someone, but out on a leisurely trip instead.
"You're still green girl. Can you really use that knife of yours?" He asked, his actions only made her think that he's buying for time.
She smirked and pressed the knife harder to his neck. A bloody line appeared there and spread through the metal knife.
"Don't test me." She said coldly.
The driver gnashed his teeth. "Since when did you notice?"
Sorcha looked at him as if she's looking at an idiot. "From the beginning. Stop dawdling and just drive back to my school."
He has no other changes choice but to steer the wheel and do what she wanted. Though he's still skeptical whether the girl could hurt him, he has a hunch that if he didn't follow her instructions now he'd definitely regret it.
While the car is driving back to the school, Sorcha asked, "what are your plans?"
She isn't hoping for him to say anything, but atleast it'd be better to get some things out of his mouth.
Like what she thought, he just kept silent. But what she didn't expect is that he would actually say something after a while.
"We do not plan to harm you." He said.
Sorcha felt that he's saying the truth, but she still didn't trust him.
"Really, now?" She asked.
"We only wanted to use you against your father." He answered.
Now, she definitely couldn't remain unperturbed. These guys are definitely after his father. They even wanted to use her to threaten him. She instantly felt mad. The car temperature which is already low, became even colder.

The driver who calls himself Dante, drove the car towards the school. Sorcha still holds the knife pointed to his neck. She no longer have the time to think about who wants to plot against her father. Right now, she needs to think about how to get through this safely.
The people in the car that's been following them is probably now feeling that there's something wrong. This car would definitely not arrive at the school, she thought and became worried.
She have long wanted to just push the driver out the car, but the problem is, she do not know how to drive! Another thing is, she really want to teach this bastards a lesson for wanting to harm his father. Though, she is also aware that she can't fight them alone, making her become more indecisive.
Calling using her phone, is not a good idea as well. These people are obviously prepared. Who knows if it is tapped? That would only make the guys hasten their moves to get her.
She looked outside the car, and estimates that it should be no lesser than fifteen minutes before it arrive at the school. She gritted her teeth and said right after the car turned, "Stop!"
The driver was reluctant to follow her order, but he still stopped the car. Sorcha hit the back of his neck, making him lose consciousness. All her actions were done swiftly.
When she became sure that the guy has really blacked out, she opened the door and ran fast. Not towards the school, because the people following them would probably think that they're going there. So she ran to another direction.
The place she's currently at is an abandoned lot. There were broken houses, were only a few tattered walls remained. The grass were as high as her hips, and there were a lot of trees scattered around as well. Choosing to run towards a place with plenty of people might be a better choice, but she didn't want to implicate innocent civilians into this.
She ran naturally, as if running fastly pose no difficulty for her. She looked behind her, and saw the people from afar stopped as well and went near her car to check her out. When they saw the unconscious driver, they instantly guessed that their plans have gone wrong. They looked around looking for her, but she's already hiding from them.
Apparently, not all of them are foolish to think that she ran towards the school. They grouped themselves separately and started looking for her.
She calmed herself, and continued to run while avoiding them. Atleast the good news is that, if ever there'd be a confrontation, she would not face all of them at once.
She inhaled deeply, and hid behind a tree. She knows she can't run away from them, but she's hoping that she could atleast outwit them.
