Five

He loved thinking of himself as the drugstore cowboy. He could never understand how junkies could form crews though. No one can trust a junkie. He would never be a junkie but it was a ton of fun to robo fry. Sure it killed brain cells but then again what saved them? As a matter of fact, does anything not kill brain cells anymore? People will one day be huddled together fearing a sneezing fit.
�I want to live!�
Now everyone in the drug store did their part...
They all looked at the strange man wearing sunglasses inside of the store. He was the only one alive in the store and that was why he was out of place.
The scenario was nearing the pivotal moment for him. All of the strangers were playing their roles perfectly. Including the employees. They wanted him gone worse than any of the customers because they would have to get in the line of fire if the strange man acted crazy. He wished he would have quoted Shakespeare instead of yelling what he did. None of these sheep knew they were merely actors on a worldwide stage.
Luther Lucid knew that he was a sheep.
He walked to the employee nearest him with the biggest bottle of Robotussin he could find. He held it out like he wanted to pitch him a football for the Packer Power Sweep.
�Is this the biggest bottle I can have?�
The question was stupid on purpose. The employee relaxed. Luther could see the bulging vein in his neck pulsate slightly less.
�Yeah bro, that is the jumbo size.�
Luther stared at him for an awkward moment. The kid seemed relaxed still. He even tried to make a joke.
�You�ll just have to live with that.�
Luther smiled without laughing. He also did not take his eyes off of the employee. He read the kid�s name on his badge a moment earlier.
�Did you have anything else to say Chip Taylor?�
The kid�s eyes flicked and he finally went somewhere else. Luther put the jumbo sized bottle into his jacket then walked out of the store.
The employees all saw him do it.
They were glad he finally left.
Car tires screeched out in the parking lot.
