Chapter 10: On The Road

Vroom!

Mark and Arit were on Mark's Kawasaki Ninja H2/R motorcycle as they made their way towards school. The Kawasaki was a gift from Pat on Mark's sixteenth birthday, and Mark has loved the bike ever since. Mark knew that this Kawasaki breed is the fastest commercial motorcycle in the world and Mark had no idea how Pat was able to get one as easily as he did!

Mark has always believed that Pat had way more money than he knew what to do with.

Mark made a lot of modifications to the bike to make it faster and stronger than other Ninja H2/Rs, and he uses any excuse he can to ride the bike anywhere he goes!

At first, Arit was against riding the bike because of how Mark always rode at a very high speed! Mark was always trying to perform stupid stunts with the bike, and Arit was always scared for her life when she was with him! She was afraid that Mark would put them in an accident one day, and they could both end up dead! But Mark assured her that he would be careful, and he would drive slowly whenever they were together, so she finally agreed for him to take her to school with it!

Arit had no idea that Mark only wanted her to ride with him so much because of how tightly she would hold onto him whenever she was on the back of the bike! Mark could feel all her assets pressing against his back, and it was too exciting for him to pass up! If feeling something like that meant he had to ride slower, then he would gladly go ahead and do just that!

As Arit and Mark went to school that day, Mark had to stop at a cross-section as he saw a long line of cars moving through the road. They were both shocked to see so many cars moving down the road toward the docks. The cars were all military-grade vehicles with bulletproof windows and large Gatling guns mounted on top of their roof, and everyone knew that these cars were specially created to fight against Anima! What was happening!? Was there an Anima attack?

Mark didn't receive any calls from Pat, so he was sure that there were no attacks close by right now. That means that this must have something to do with the attack that happened yesterday! Pat said that the attack was weird and there were a few things that didn't seem right about it, but Mark didn't know that it was this serious! He would have to call Pat later to get some info out of him!

PEEE!

PEEE!

A loud car horn echoed through the street and startled Arit so much that she almost dropped her phone in shock!

"Hey, fucker, don't just stay there blocking the way! Get a move on already and let me pass! You think this fucking road belongs to you!? Get that stupid-looking bike out of the way now!"

Someone suddenly shouted from behind Arit and Mark, and Mark didn't even need to turn around to know exactly who it was! The person was driving a yellow Lamborghini and was shouting loudly in anger, telling Mark to get the hell out of the way! Mark looked back to see one of his seniors in school named Francis. Francis was from class 3-B, and he was the son of one of the richest men in City A. His father owned at least one-third of the businesses in the city, and they were far too rich to be considered normal!

There was a girl sitting beside Francis in the Lamborghini, and she was busy fixing up her makeup in the car mirror as she ignored what was happening around her! Her name was Esmeralda Fortuna, and she was the second daughter of the Fortuna Entertainment company president. The Fortuna Entertainment company was in charge of everything that had to do with media in City A. They handled things like modeling and idol shows, and they were also involved in TV presentations! She was from a very wealthy family, so she knew she didn't have to worry about anything in life! All she had to do was look pretty, and she knew that life would be easy for her!

She hung out with Francis because she knew that it would look good on her to be with the son of such a rich family, but she was constantly annoyed at the things that he did! Did he not know that he was bothering her makeup session with his stupid horn!? Esmeralda glared at Francis as he pressed the horn again! He just made her make a mistake in applying her lipstick! But she just sighed and looked away. She couldn't do anything to stop Francis when Mark was involved! Francis has hated Mark right from the first time he saw Mark hanging out with Arit.

Esmeralda didn't have anything against Mark, in fact, she thought that Mark was very handsome, but she couldn't say that out loud because she would be going against Francis and that would be bad for the future relations between their two family businesses! So she just allowed Francis to torment Mark anyhow he wanted!

Francis has always had it out for Mark right from when Mark started coming to Nature Academy. The reason for this was that Francis had been trying his best to woo Arit right from her first year, and she has never agreed to be friends with him, so Francis was pissed when he saw how Arit and Mark immediately became close when Mark started going to their school last year! Francis considered himself to be better than Mark in every way, so he didn't see any reason why Arit should not like him more than Mark! As far as Francis was concerned, both Arit and Mark were eyesores, and he tried his best to make things difficult for them in any way he could!
