Stella spotted him too-no doubt about it, he was a beggar. Dressed in tattered rags, barefoot, and wandering aimlessly. "Another soul driven mad by the apocalypse," she sighed to herself.
Just as she was reflecting, the sound of a car caught the beggar's attention. Surprisingly, he turned and waved frantically to flag it down. "Robbery tactics are getting more and more creative," she thought. "This guy could very well be a decoy for an ambush."
Stella cocked her gun, ready to take him down if he showed any sign of threat.
"Hey, stop the car, stop the car!" the beggar shouted.
Stella scanned the area but saw no sign of an ambush.
Jasper didn't hit the brakes and just drove past.

Stella squinted, recognizing the figure in the rearview mirror.
"Stop the car," she commanded.
Seeing the truck pull over, the beggar's mood swung from irritation to hope. He limped over and asked, "Buddy, could you give me a lift?"
He hurried over but froze in shock when he got a better look.
It was like a bucket of ice water had been dumped over him in the dead of winter.
