“Why can’t you leave the state?” Colin asked. He was in the passenger seat of Ritchie’s car. Razor was driving just under the speed limit, in a manner he hoped wouldn’t attract too much attention.

“None of your damn business,” Razor said. “You tell me something. How’d you know those guys were looking for me? How did you know which way they were going?”

Colin had been expecting this question. “I’m not sure. Sometimes I just know things.”

“You’re telling me you’re psychic?”

“I don’t know about that. It comes and goes.”

“And how’d you do that thing with your hand?”

“It’s just a matter of knowing where the pressure points are,” Colin lied.

“Where’d you learn it?”

“My parents.”

“What are they? Karate experts or something?”

“Something like that.”

“What else can you do?”

“Not much.”

Razor shook his head. “You’re one weird little kid, you know that? So why do you want to get to Richmond?”

“There’s an old friend of my parents’ there. I’m hoping he’ll be able to help me.”

“That so?”

Colin nodded. “Yeah. My dad says he’s very rich. He used to be an inventor.”

“How rich?”

“Rich enough to give you a reward for helping me.”

“What sort of a reward?”

“Whatever you want,” Colin lied. “A new car. A new house, maybe. He’s also got a lot of connections. He could get your record cleared. Give you a new identity. Like I said, whatever you want.”

Razor laughed. “How about a date with Avril Lavigne?”

“Funny you should say that…Apparently he used to go to school with her mother’s cousin. Still keeps in touch.”

As Razor mulled over this very attractive idea, the car crossed over the border from Florida into Georgia.
