I think this should always move them away from the player:

local scaler = 2
local movebackvector = (hrp.Position - ohrp.Position).Unit * scaler
hum:MoveTo(CFrame.new(hrp.Position + movebackvector))

You can change the scaler to change the direction amount.

Now i always get the Vector math confused (someone help :D) on which should be subbed first. But if that pushes them forward the movebackvector should be

local movebackvector = (ohrp.Position - hrp.Position).Unit * scaler
