Under His Command

Chapter 5

I pushed the brake pedal with intensity.

The police car screeched and jolted forward bringing this slow vehicle to a stop.

My head raced with questions.

Who was this guy?

Why was he following me?

Is he rich?

What does he want from me?

Why didn't he turn me in to the police?

As I was thinking I heard the expensive car screech up ahead. I looked up.

The expensive car was coming back this way. Oh no!!! I tried to put the car in drive but nothing happened.

I pushed the gas pedal. Nothing happened. I grabbed my backpack and opened the police car door.

I ran to the sidewalk and ran down the street.

After running down a couple blocks I stopped and looked around.

There was no sign of the expensive car. Finally!!!

I turned around again just to make sure I wasn't dreaming.

I even walked down the sidewalk a couple feet to double check.

I can't believe I lost the guy in the expensive car, but my smile was quickly turned into a shocked look as I turned back around.

The expensive car was now on top of the sidewalk and the guy was leaning on his car twirling his car keys in his hand with a grin on his face.

My voice shook as I asked him "Who are you?"

The guy laughed and replied with a powerful voice and said "I am Lucas Hamltion."
