They began walking to the next room, the 600 pound lineman waddling behind, huffing and puffing at this point. "Wilkson?" He said with his hands on his knees catching breath, "can we stop somewhere and rest a little?" Wilkson looked around and focused on the running back teasing the former linebacker. "Oh you want this needle? You want this?" He said as the former football player tried to reach it with his deflated leather hand. It just kept flopping and collapsing, like a new born kitten trying to paw. Charlie looked at wilkson who looked at Charlie. "Young man, your wish will come shortly, first a room that the running back would enjoy!" The running back looked up pulling the needle away from the football draped over his arm. A light hiss escaped it as it flopped down in defeat.
"This next room is quit my achievement!" He said as they entered a room full of new equipment. There were blocking dummies like before but they were all shaped like people with there arms out. It almost looked like they were trying to catch something? As they looked around there were cages with football tossers, but unlike the usual ones, these had a bazooka like tube attached to them. The running back laughed, tossing his football shaped pal to the floor. The lineman huffing picked up the deflated football man and said "hey! You mind re inflating your buddy here!" The running back laughed and tossed the needle to the lineman/ quarterback, its metal dropping to the turf floor. " keep him! I'm done with his sorry ass!" He said as he explored, grabbing a ball and playing with the dummies.
He ran around, bumping there arms as he blocked with his shoulder. Meanwhile wilkson brought an air compressor to help the lineman inflate the football man again. With a loud hum the machine began inflating him back to human form. The linebacker football bowed to the lineman and wilkson, and looked on with leather eyes to the man that tortured him so. "Hey wilkson! Mind if i suit up and try these cages?" He yelled as he began putting on equipment. Wilkson began to protest but by then he was in one of the cages. "Dear boy that cages is rather experimental I'm afraid." As he pointed to the dummy inside getting hit by a football ever few minutes. The dummy looked just like the others, but as the running back looked closer it saw it had human features to it like the room in the beginning.
"Wilkson! Is this a person like...." before he could finish one of the balls whacked him in the chest. With a loud whoosh, the running back was perfectly still with his arms out trying to catch the ball. Wilkson turned off the machine, and the rest of the group stepped in looking around him. Where once a man stood was a brand new dummy, his face and uniform printed on vinyl. "Hiss hiss hiss!" The football man burst out as he made the jester of laughing. The others explored his features, his helmet, uniform, even his dreadlocks hanging out of it were just vinyl printed and shaped liked puffed out hair. His arms were outstretched but instead of hands and arms they were cylinders with his arms printed on them. His legs were also cones propping him up perfectly as the image of cleats and padded pants were printed on.
"If anyone's interested he's able to turn back." He said as he pointed to the small piece of Velcro attached to his hand. "See if you place a football to his hand he turns human again." He said as he placed a ball right on the Velcro. Automatically he was a human again, almost falling back in shock. "Wilkson you ass! I'm gonna..." The football linebacker smacked the ball outa his hand and a whoosh was heard again as he became a dummy. "Thank you young, uh, thing." He patted the top of the dummies head, and said "well we might as well leave him here unless someone wants to put that ball back in his hand?" They all shook there head except the football man. He pointed to him and hissed as though he was glad to have him. Wilkson shrugged and gave him the ball. He put it in his hand and the football man picked up the dummy to take to the next room. "At least he'll never get worn out or torn up!" Wilkson said as they entered......
