Adam glanced at Heather.  "I've got jumper cables, but not rope.  I doubt they'd stretch far enough."  His tone was unconvincing and betrayed his lack of enthusiasm<br/><br/>He really didn't want to drag the man.  It was just disrespectful to the dead.  Worse, Adam was considering stealing his clothes.  It had first crossed his mind at the inadequacy of his denim jacket, but why stop at the jacket?  He was lucky Anico's camo pants fit him.  He didn't have a suitcase full of clothes.  He could use a second shirt and pants, even if they had to be taken in.  Not to mention an extra pair of shoes.  However, while that was practical it just felt wrong.  Already they were planning to steal the dead man's groceries and his van.  They had to do that.  They might just need them to survive.  What choice did they have?  But to also take his clothes and then throw his body out naked for the animals to feast on?  It was just cruel.  Logically it shouldn't matter.  Ashes to ashes.  Dust to dust.  Was it really different to bury him in the ground for the worms to eat as opposed to leaving him for the wolves and such?  If they could just give him a decent burial, then it wouldn't feel so wrong to take his things.  Yet night was coming and they barely had time to save the food and put the van in order.  He didn't even have a shovel.  How long would it take to dig a grave without a shovel?<br/><br/>He looked at Helen.  She was right. It didn't feel real, but if they didn't treat this as real they could all die.  "Ok, just follow me."  He responded dully.<br/><br/>Adam went over to his taxi and started it up.  "Heather, you coming with me?"<br/><br/>He shouldn't waste gas, but he let it idle while she got in.  Then he drove slow, about thirty miles an hour around the bridge.  The tall prairie grass made a contant swishing noise as his taxi drove over it.  Some birds and once a rabbit startled into motion and got out of the way.  Adam barely noticed.  His thoughts were still with the dead guy.<br/><br/>"Heather, before we, um," Bury him?  Dump him?  "Lay the body to rest, would you say a prayer for him please?  I'd appreciate that."<br/><br/>He knew next to nothing about Heather, but anyone who brought up being born again in less than five minutes of conversation had to be deeply religious.  Adam was nominally Christian, but he just didn't feel right saying a prayer for the soul of a man while coveting his earthly belongings.
