"You okay, Dan?" Suki asked. She was standing
over him with a bottled water. The orb had stopped orbiting around her
and was perched on her left shoulder like a parrot waiting for a
cracker. "I forgot to mention the side effects."
"What happened?"
Dan asked. He was staring straight up at Suki. The fluorescent light
made her features seem soft. He tried sitting up but vertigo hit him
hard.
"You blacked out," she told him. "We shifted. It's a side-effect from shifting."
Dan was lying on a subway platform.
