I carefully searched the rubble until I located a nice, rock-shaped stone. I heaved it off the ground and presented it to Shuriken. “Here, take this stone.â€

I didn’t understand what was so confusing to other people about picking up everything that wasn’t nailed down. “You know,†I answered with rising frustration, “in case we need it later.

I then proceeded to check my awesome robotic arm for laser guns. To my disappointment, I found none.
I examined the dead man. His head was flat, as though a castle had fallen on it, and there were the ruins of a castle on top of his head. He was wearing a white jacket with red sleeves and a red leaf printed on the back. His denim jeans had a chain running from his belt and hooked to his pocket. His feet sported a fine pair of ruby slippers.
