A pickup truck that was coming up the street swerved to miss Muffy as she crossed the street, then screeched to a halt near the wreckage.

It was one of those service utility trucks that small businesses use on customer calls. It had a rack attached over the bed of the truck. On the rack were rows upon rows of gutter material. Downspouts, angles, attachments. It looked like the driver was on his way to install an entire house worth of gutters.

The driver got out, and ran over to the man who Muffy had helped lean against the wall. "We've gotta' get you outta' here!", he said. Then, he guided the injured man into his pickup, and they drove off.

Muffy watched these actions with curiosity. "These guys know each other? I wonder what they're hiding? Leaving the scene of an accident? Uh-oh. They're going to have some explaining to do to the authorities", she mused.

The driver of the other wrecked vehicle was finally visible in the light of the moon. His hair almost glowed in the moonlight. It was almost a sylver color.
