The only way I know how to run functions in tool is on activated, how do I run then on key press? Here's the script I already made. The function is run on activated.

04tool = script.Parent
05handle = tool.Handle
06x = script.Chakram

12        local ff = Instance.new("ForceField")
13        ff.Parent = tool.Parent
14        game.Debris:AddItem(ff,2.5)
15        local xc = x:Clone()
16        xc.Parent = game.Workspace
17        game.Debris:AddItem(xc,2.5)
18        xc.CFrame = handle.CFrame
19        local y = Instance.new("BodyVelocity")
20        y.Parent = xc
21        y.maxForce = Vector3.new(math.huge, math.huge, math.huge)
22        y.Velocity = xc.CFrame.lookVector *0
23        xc.loop:Play()
24        while true do
25            wait()
26            xc.Position = handle.Position 
27            xc.CFrame = handle.CFrame
