Carter Blackwood, was not just a mechanic, he was a guru when it comes to fixing cars, he would buy car parts, and damaged cars, that no one believed would work again, and fix it with new parts, when George wa ten years old George he began to teach him a lot about cars, he literally thought George everything he knew about cars.

George was a very fast learner, he learnt absolutely everything everyday his father would bring an abandoned damaged car he would ask his son to fix it without his supervision, George fixed it perfectly well when his father saw this he was so proud of his son, though they were an average family they never went hungry.

One night, George and his parents had just finished watching movies at the cinema on their way home, his dad lost control of the car, and a heavy wind similar to an earthquake was blowing, a lot of cars were scattering on the road, some people had already given up the ghost.

"George! George! How many times did I call, you need to listen now! I don't think we are going to survive this! I will let you out of the window

for your own good! And make sure you have a strong and firm control over your legs when I do"! His mother yelled as treats rolled down to her cheeks.

"No mum! I won't do this! Pls dad! No, I don't want to leave you both here please! No!" George pleaded with them.

"Please listen to your mother

son! We are not going to survive this! But you can! You're small, you have the advantage!" His dad yelled.

"Please mom! Please dad! I'm begging you!" George yelled. His mom gently lifted him up and struggled to open the car window as she gently threw him out. As George landed on the floor he hurriedly stood up, as he watched his mom waved her hands from the window of the car, suddenly a big train out of nowhere crushed his parent's car.

George stood there, as tears rolled down from his eyes. He hurriedly left the scene and retired to a mechanic shop nearby

Then a man named Higgs the Mechanic sighted him from a distance he hurriedly rushed to him and asked curiously.

"Hey kid, what's wrong?" Mr Higgs, asked the poor boy.
