The Cheat Seed

The Driver shot up, surprised. The Carriage raced against the wind as it sped through the dirt road towards the city.

"Tell Raka, That I'll meet him soon in the Academy" 

Marcus relaxed himself back on the soft cushion and closed his eyes for a moment. 

His eyes seemed to burn because of the sun hitting on the. through the window. 

Well the thing that mattered now was...How the hell did he find about the driver??. The Driver was sweating. How'd he manage to find it out???, The Driver's thoughts were madly dancing inside his head as the carriage picked up speed. 

They were finally on the concrete paved road when a familiar someone spoke inside his mind (Driver's)

"It was easy old man, Don't worry. I am not going to do anything to you" 

It was Marcus's voice. The driver turned to look through the opening. But he was sleeping on the cushion. 

"I'm speaking inside your mind..So focus on the road, I don't want any accidents."

The driver jumped in awe and did like his mysterious passenger said. It was true that he was a spy who worked for Raka Riles, his master. Even his appearance was just a facade which masked his true young form of a 24 year old man who worked under Raka as an apprentice. 

But his looks were more than perfect that even an appraisal skill would fail its job. But the man 1 meter behind him had already found who his master was, so there was no doubt that he would have already found out who he was.

The Voice returned yet again when the Capital Circle appeared around the corner.

"So about how I figured your mask"

Marcus paused and nodded. His mouth was still but his mind wasn't. It was connected to the man in front of him in the driver compartment. 

"It was you who dropped the gift today morning, My Familar sensed your scent when you arrived again..wasn't it??." 

There was no reply from the other end so Marcus continued. 

"Just think about your answer dude, I can hear them too"

Driver ~ "Yes...Yes it was me" 

"Haha..I know right...Sean" 

The second wave of chill and fright vibrated through his spine as Sean, the driver trembled.

"What...What're you..going to do to me?"
