THE DARKWOOD TWINS

I hijack a nice guys car

Aaron P.O.V

I woke up. My father was singing a song because it was boring. I joined in. go figure. Since we were tied up onfront of a bonfire. he was singing songs which describe FIRE.

I know that I'm running out of time

(I want it all, mmm, mmm)

And I'm wishing they'd stop tryna turn me off

I want it all, mmm, mmm

And I'm walking on a wire, trying to go higher

Feels like I'm surrounded by clowns and liars

Even when I get it all the way

(I want it all, mmm, mmm)

We can get 'em running, running, running//

Just like fire, burning out the way

If I can light the world up for just one day

Watch this madness, colorful charade

No one can be just like me any way

Just like magic, I'll be flying free

I'mma disappear when they come for me

I kick that ceiling, what you gonna say?

No one can be just like me any way

Just like fire...

Then a thought came to me like a speeding train. Big ugly is sleeping. We're tied in fire proof rope. There's a shard of glass right near my foot. It took hours but I did it. I managed to make the shard come closer to my foot. just when it hit my foot. I tossed the glass up and caught it with my right hand. I slowly began to cut our rope. I got myself freed. Now for dad. I thought. but big ugly woke up.

" Don't cut me loose, run!. don't worry about me I have a plan of escape. I can do it alone. Get out of here. Run, Aaron!" my dad gave me orders. I knew he was bluffing about a escape plan. but I was too much a coward.

" I'll come with re-enforcements, dad. don't worry. We'll save you." I said.

Half crying I ran out of there as fast as I can. I heard a distant roar. it's good that I do basketball at school. really came in handy when I was running. I know that my sister will come to rescue dad. But wherever she goes she goes in a straight line. dad said camp half blood is in New York. So my sister would probably go to Indianapolis first then to St. Lois, then to Kansas city and then from there to Mt. Rushmore in south Dakota. So I gotta go to Kansas city. That's about 8 hours. okay. piece of cake. I kept on running. I kept on stopping cars, for a ride. Then I got kinda stubborn the next car I stopped was a porshe. I stopped it. Unfortunately I still had my driving license. so I made the driver open the car door and I pulled him out. His Name was Jake Carson. He said that he could give me a ride.

"Thank you Jake. I got in and told him to drive towards Kansas city. Unfortunately Jake had some food. He was a son of a billionaire. Unfortunately he hates his dad. so he had runaway. He was 18 years old. He was a punk clothes wearing dude. He thought I ran away too.

" Hey, Aaron. Can I trust you?"

" Of course, you gave me a ride. your the kindest person I have met. You can trust me"

" That's good. let me ask you a question. you ever believe in Greek myths? cause my dad is Ares. God of war. I sense that even your a demigod. am I right?"

I was stunned. I liked this dude.

" Yes, I'm the son of Athena. Goddess of wisdom and war"

" Finally! I meet someone who actually understands me." he said.

" You got any powers?"

" I'm immune to fire and I have a magical whip."

"Cool!"i said. Then I explained about my Powers." I said.

"That's cool, dude" he said. We both laughed and I knew that I just met a good friend.
