Marina watched as the man looked at her. He seemed confused, which was understandable given the fact that he was sprouting nonsense. Of course they were on Earth, where else would they be? Marina listened as the man talked more about 'Mother Universe' and 'summoning'. He spoke oddly, his sentences choppy and to-the-point. All of the crazy people Marina had seen on television spoke in long, winding sentences. Most of them were not coherent enough to get to the point. But what other explanation was there? She wasn't about to believe that this man was really a 'summoned protector from the universe.'<br/><br/>Marina was about to offer to point him on down the road again, when the man suddenly disappeared. She blinked quickly, looking around before she heard his voice again, this time coming from her right. She turned, and saw him sitting in her passenger seat, now repeating her words from before he had appeared. Marina jumped and moved to put the car door in between them when she remembered that it was, in fact, her car. "What the hell-Get out of my car!" She didn't mean to shout, but her surprise added a louder volume to her outburst than she expected. The man just kept talking, however, explaining that she had summoned him with her sarcasm. He ended with the statement that he was not crazy, which sounded exactly like what a crazy person would say.<br/><br/>"Look." Marina said, putting her hand out in front of her to give her something to focus on other than the stranger currently sitting in her car. "I don't know how you know what I said, and I don't know how you got here, but I do know that you need to get out of my car. I don't need any protection, but thank you." Her sharp tone dwindled by the end, her slight panic leaving her as she tried to reason with the man. She just wanted to get back to Albuquerque and forget all about the Hummer and the strange man and the threatening note that was currently staring at her from the floorboard.
