A Conversation
“We found him out here just laying on the sidewalk?
“Nude?”
“Yep. He looked dead.”
“And then he jumped up?”
“Yeah. Jumped off and started yelling.”
“All that stuff about ‘do you know who I am?’ and “you should listen’?
“I think he must have been a big shot once. I don’t think he is anymore.”
“He ran for awhile and then collapsed?”
“Strangest thing; seemed to run out of energy. He ran around, bumped into a few people, and then fell down. I swore he died again. Oh my, he’s sprinting away.”
“You guys need to hold him down. There, I think they have it.”
“That guy knows how to run.”
“Too much adrenaline. We can counteract it with this dose. Right in the neck. That’s it.”
“Will he be much trouble?”
“No. We’ll take him away and keep him safe.”
“What if he sprints again?”
“Not wearing this special jacket, ankle cuffs, and diaper.”
“He looks almost normal.”
“Yes. Almost normal.”
