As the world of automation evolved throughout the years, transitioning cars to electric operated machines. As gas cars are being seized and destroyed, the Last Dodge Challenger Demon is the only remaining gas car that is kept hidden through the year...
As they walk silently, John courageously ask the man to fulfil his curiosity on how the man knows his father.
"I was thinking, how long do you know this someone who's related to me?" John asked the man as they walked through the alleyways.
"You'll know soon when we get there," the man simply replied to John as he walked straight and fast towards his destination
After 40 minutes of walking, the man and John finally reached a garage. It has an old garage that has been standing for almost 37 years from now. It remained strong despite the cracks and vanishment of the painting around the garage.
"What is this place?" John asked the man curiously as he looked around the place.
"This place is where your father's legacy" the mysterious man said as he approached the garage's door and opened it
As the mysterious man opened the garage's door, it left John speechless and surprised as he saw countless trophies, tool kits, picture frames of cars, and races of his father.
"Wait, are these all from my Father?" John asked the man, respectively and suprisingly.
"Yes," the man replied as John entered the garage and wandered around the garage. John looked through the trophies that his father won from his previous races. He continued to wander around the garage, and that one thing caught John's attention as he glanced over the covered car in front of him.
"Is that?" John asked the man
"Yes, it's one of your father's cars," the man replied to John as he gave a grant to John to uncover the car.
John approaches the car, and he runs his fingers through it. Feeling the texture and the figure of the car.
"May I?" John asked the man in a respectively and stern manner.
The man responds in a nod as he grants the request from John. John proceeded to uncovers the car, and it left him surprised, and his mouth formed in "O" as the red glossy 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon shine before his eyes.
"Woah," John said in an exciting and amazed tone as he checked out the car. "Is this really from my father? This car is amazing. "

"Yes, it's from your father. That beast is a 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon, goes up to 840 HP, a HEMI supercharged 6.2 - liter V8 and it weights for about 770lb" the man said.
"Oh also, I still didn't introduce myself to you. My name is Joel Cooper. But you can call me old man Joe, despite being old and being a 77 year old man. "
"Can I ask? What is your relationship with my dad? Are you two partners or something in racing?" John asked sternly to Old man Joe
"Well, I'm actually your father's crew chief, and yes, we are close friends back in the glorious days of ours," Old man Joe said to John.
"Then, how come I didn't know you when you have a close relationship with my father?" John asked curiosly.
"Well, long story kid," Old man Joe replied to John in a calm, stern tone
John continued to speculate the car as he let his eyes savour the sight of every part of the car. A few hours passed, and John noticed the time as he lost track and it was getting late.
"Mr. Old man Joe, it's getting late. I should probably go now, " John said as he picked up his bag.
"Ok kid, see you again. You can visit me and the car anytime you want. You know where to go, right?" Old man Joe asked John before he leaves.
"Yes Joe, I know where to find you and the car now, all thanks to you," John replied as he waved goodbye to old man Joe as he left.
As John disappeared from old man Joe's sight, Joe closed the garage's door and ensured that he locked it. After locking the doors, he looks at the picture of him and Ivan together while holding a trophy.
"Ivan, if you can hear me. I have a feeling that your son will carry on the legacy you started. " Old man Joe mumbles to himself as he covers up the car again before he headed off to bed.
(8:30 P.M)
As John walks through the neon streets, he can't help think about the car that his father left to him as a remembrance of his father and constant reminder that no matter where he go, his father is always on his side. As he continued to walk, he saw his friends worried sick because he's nowhere to be found, and he instantly ran up to them.
"Hey guys, sorry that I made you worry about me," John said as he apologized to his friends.
"Where the hell have you been?! It's been hours, and you didn't reply to our texts or calls! "Jack exclaimed in an irritated and angry tone.
"We've been worried sick. You should have told us where you headed so that we could follow you," Liam said to John as he continued to lecture John for his mistake.
"I'm sorry guys, it's just, something came on, and I just had to go. Sorry, " John replied to them in an apologetic way.
Anne comes up to him and hits him in the arm. "You should really tell one of us, we're really worried about when we noticed your missing," Anne said to John as she tears up and tries to contain her emotions
John approached Anne, and he wiped Anne's tears, which made the girl blush and flinch a bit.
"I'm sorry, it won't happen again," John said as he hugged Anne to comfort her, and Anne hugged her back to John
"Love birds," Jack mumbles loudly
Anne instantly fixes her composure and wipes her tears as she faces Jack. "We're not love birds!!!" Anne exclaimed to Jack as a slight hint of pink blush appears on the girl's cheek
"Ok, ok guys, let's all go home now. It's getting late and I'm sure our parents are searching for us, " John said to his friends
"Alright, lets go home," his friends exclaimed as they walked towards the bus stop that is 3 block away from their current location.
