One day, a man walked into a small Southern town. He was average height with a bald head. However, he appeared to be out of place. A black suit, black pants, and black dress shoes were all that he was wearing. As he reached the entrance to the town, he stopped and observed the welcome sign and the area surrounding it. As soon as he finished, he continued his march through the quaint little town. Looking left and right, it seemed as if he were scanning the town's design and layout. Of course, this occurence was peculiar to the townspeople. They watched from their windows, confused, yet excited about this new visitor. But, no one dared leave their house and approach him.
As he approached the end of the town, his stride began to slow. Once he reached the towns outer limit, he stopped, turned around in a perfect semicircle, and retraced his previous steps. Still, everyone in town watched in awe while this stranger intruded. Just as someone had opened their door, he reached the entrance he had started his short journey on. Just as the man who had left his house was about to call out to the man, a bright light flashed throughout the town, dazing all who had watched. When the senses of the townspeople returned, the man was gone, his trail of footsteps vanished, and their memories of the event wiped clean.
