The night has fully descended and people are already gathering at the hotspot for bars, clubs and the likes.
You will not see people at this time of the night beside those gathering areas where they crowd.
Because of that as Fred drives away the people he passes by dwindle little by little until there is none anymore.
With the window of the car open, Fred felt the cool refreshing breeze of the night.
Driving along the coast road, the smell of the sea tingles his nose, giving a salty after taste.
*Sigh*
As he drove steadily, Fred let out a sigh.
He felt like there were too many things in his head even though he didn't know what those things were.
It kinda makes him stressed and he wants to let out in some way.
It was at this moment when he didn't know what to do that he saw people gathering a distance away.
People gather at both sides of the road while cars face the same direction while making their engine roar.
Looking closely, it seems like this is a gathering for those who race.
Seeing something interesting like this, Fred immediately grabbed his camera just at the backseat of the car.
He turned it on and hung it on his neck, while doing so, he can't help but complain for a bit.
"Hais… this feels kinda restricting with the camera on my neck all the time."
Massaging his neck and shoulder even though they don't hurt, Fred felt his muscles relaxing.
"If only this camera could move on it's own and not become a hindrance to my movements."
After he finished saying that, he opened his eyes wide as surprise made its way to him.
He felt some force from inside his body making its way to the camera on his neck.
Light then started covering the camera, but it died down after a few seconds.
But after the light is gone, the camera is also nowhere to be seen.
"Huh?" Tilting his head to the side, Fred makes a stupid voice that sounded confused.
He was shocked seeing that the camera which is from his family vanished. But he recovered after a short confusion.
It's because he saw that there is something floating in front of him about the size of a fly.
When his eyes aligned with it, an image of himself appeared in his right eye.
Then by instinct he knows everything about this little thing in front of him.
The camera that he usually holds became this tiny fly size floating thing in front of him because of the points in him.
He immediately knows how to use this even though it's new to him. By instinct he knows that these things can be controlled with just a thought of him.
Fred wanted to try it out and so he stretched out his palm to the camera then with a thought he made it land on his palm.
His thought was transmitted quickly and so not even a second later, the camera started moving and landed on his hand.
His eyes started shining after trying it just once.
Fascinated with this little thing, Fred wants to make use of it immediately.
Then he turned his eyes on the gathering crowd just a distance away and thought of something.
Through the open window beside him, Fred let out the camera.
This thing can be as far as 2km away from the controller or in other words, Fred.
To function, it needs to charge solar energy for 24 minutes which can be used for 24 hours after!
Isn't it just like the best!?
The Fly Camera, something Fred chose to call it, transmitted everything that it captured with its lens to Fred's right eye in HD quality so he can clearly see everything as if it's him that is there.
It went to the crowd and as it did, Fred started to hear something in his ear. As it comes nearer and nearer to the noise he makes it out to be the voice of the people talking.
This means that the fly camera is not just able to transmit images, but even sounds!
Fred heard the people shouting three different names.
""Johnny!! Johnny!!""
""Go Robert!! Trash them!!""
""Tessa will make you all eat dust!!""
These three different shouts makes the place deafening, with how loud it is, it seems like it might be capable of making an earthquake.
In the center of the road, three people are inside each of their cars.
A bald man, a man who looks like a punk, and a goth theme-like girl.
Each of them looking at the road in front of them full of seriousness.
Full of determination to be the first to cross the finish line, to be the best of all the racers in Olongapo City. (The City Fred is in. Did I mention it before?. Meh.)
In the midst of the roaring engine and the loud yelling of the crowd, a sexy lady with curves at just the right place to look seductive walked between the cars.
Wearing a skimpy clothes that makes her very attractive to the males in here and holding unto a small flag, she stood still, raised her hands,
And brought it down with force signaling the start of the race.
The cars roared loudly as they advanced straight to the road with their full speed.
The people roared louder as they watched the cars advancing until it was gone from their sight.
…
A distance away, Fred, who was controlling the fly camera to monitor all that was happening in there, made the camera come back to him.
Holding the camera, he looks at the excitement that is happening.
It's catching up to him, the exciting feeling like fire raging in his blood.
"I wanna join them!"
The thought flashes in his head, and he immediately barges in there and competes with those racers.
But finally, he suppressed himself in the end.
"It's not possible, I only have rank F Driving skills, and I don't have any points right now to upgrade it to a level where I can compete with those races…"
*Sigh*
He let out a sigh before leaving the place, continuing driving silently in this dark night.
