       I was unsure what to do. I couldn't move or anything,  and I was bewildered by why he could. He stared at me in awe, then walked up quickly and cautiously, and went behind me. I felt a sharp pain when all of the sudden I could move. I gasped and spun around to look at the newcomer. "Just flipped yee power on missy," he said not taking his eyes off mine.
