"Uh, yeah?" I twisted away but my wish that he wouldn't follow went unfulfilled.
"You know, I can help you find 'em down below."
I shook my head, "I have no idea who you're talking about."
"Naaah." He drew back and looked around furtively, "you're into the one above?"
"What the hell?" I was ready to bolt but didn't have a clue where I was supposed to go.
"Ah hah!" He exhaled another hot and stinking blast that felt like it singed my eyebrows, "I was right the first time!"
And that's when I realized I was dead, without a map, and headed in the wrong direction.
