Crepsley - Speed is Relative

As I was getting up, I looked down and saw he was wearing slippers. I thought it was strange but didn’t say anything.

When I was on his back, he started running. I didn’t notice anything strange at first, but soon began to realize how fast buildings were zipping by. Mr. Crepsley’s legs didn’t seem to be moving that quickly.

Instead, it was as if the world was moving faster and we were slipping past it!

We reached the hospital in a couple of minutes. Normally it would have taken twenty minutes, and that was if you sprinted all the way.

“How did you do that?” I asked, sliding down.
