Imagine you are a train conductor, and you look out your window to see the sprawling beauty of the forest. And then, you see a little boy. Following you. You shake your head in confusion and look again. Somehow, the boy is going the exact same speed as you are. And, he's walking. You scream to him "Hey!" and he just calmly replies, "Hello, sir." You look up and notice something odd. The trees are moving by extremely slow. You haven't felt the train slowing down, so you check your speedometer.. and it still says 105 Miles Per Hour. Is something broken?! Are aliens slowing you down?! Is the boy messing with you?! You look back at the boy, and notice something else about him. His mouth is cracked open, and he's not breathing, or blinking, as a matter of fact. You must be going crazy. Suddenly, the train speeds up and the boy falls back into the distance.
