"Maybe you've used enough of that, don't you think?" a man's voice whispered into your ear just before you made the changes to Nguyen. Terrified, you turn around and see a man in a long, dark trenchcoat glaring at you. He wasn't one of the men you saw at your dorm building. In fact, he looked scarier. He had greying hair, wrinkles all over his face and was wearing a bowler hat. He grabbed you with his black-gloved hands and pushed you up from your seat, "Time to come with me. You too," he growled, grabbing Roger and dragging him with you. Inconspicuous, he pushed both of you out of the tennis stadium and near a few trees that lined the giant concrete walkway that led into campus. Behind one of the trees, he sat both of you down and then took out a cigarette.
"Listen," he began as he lit the cigarette, "I'm not here to kill you, beat you up, or anything like that. I'm just here to get back what is mine, and help you two forget anything ever happened, alright?"
"Who the hell are you?" you ask.
"You know what's a better question?" the man took of his bowler hat, revealing a sizable bald spot atop the crown of his head. "How much trouble will I be in if I don't cooperate?

"Shut up or I'll rip your mouth off your face!" the old man's eyes were crazed, and his hands jutted out towards you. "Now give me the watch, and we'll get to the 'forgetting' part of your day." The old man grabbed your wrist, and began yanking at the watch but the watch made several loud, piercing beeping noises. Then an electric shock burst from its face, and blew the man backwards.
He slammed into another tree and slumped down to the ground unconscious, limp like a wet noodle. "What the hell just happened?" Roger blurted out. You were just as confused, but extremely grateful all the same. You look down at the watch and saw its face go from Red back to Blue, with the words "Theft Prevention" fading away. "Nice," you said to yourself, then explained what happened to Roger.
