Steve a little rattled by the nosy security guard accidentally pulled the trigger shrinking him and Justin to roughly 1/6 of an inch in height. Making a horrible situation even worse was that the sudden shock of being hit by the ray caused Steve to drop the device on the table above them. Now the two men were left in the middle of the room reduced to the size of tiny bugs with their only salvation being left on what might as well be the top of Mount Everest.
Justin lay on the ground on his hands and knees looking as if he was going to puke. The sudden shrinkage had a nauseating impact on the young security guard. After regaining his composure between fits of coughing he finally spoke to Steve.
"What was that? What happened?" Justin said now standing but with his hands on his knees.
"What do you think happened? We shrunk! You wanted a demonstration, you got!" Steve shouted back at him with an irritated tone.
Honestly it was Steve's mistake that has caused both of them to shrink. Ultimately he knew he shouldn't have given in to Justin's prodding but his worry over more questions being asked got the better of him.
Steve sighs deeply and speaks with a softer tone to the still shaken Justin.
"Look, it will be alright all we need to do is reach the device and I can restore us back to normal size."
Both men stare up seemingly miles up towards the table countertop.
"Somehow." Steve says his voice cracking as he realizes how daunting a trek it will be at their size.
As they take measure of the challenge before them they notice the light in the outside hallway turn on. Through the closed door they can hear footsteps like the sound of an approaching thunderstorm drawing nearer and nearer. Up above the brass doorknob starts to turn before the mighty wooden door opens to reveal...
