'I'm going to lose my mind,' thought Pietro, a horrified look on his face.

A few seconds ago, he was standing in the line for lunch. It was going so slow. Of course, everything was slow for Pietro because he was so fast.

'Can you go any slower?'

He finally got got his tray of food.

"'Bout time, lady," Pietro said rudely to the lunch lady. "Was your mother frightened by a turtle?"

The lady glared at him. She opened her mouth to tell him off. But when she spoke, she words came out so slow.

Pietro looked confused. He couldn't understand a word she said.

"What? Why are you talking so slow? Talk faster."

Then he noticed everyone was slow. The talked slow, moved slow, ate slow.

They were all so slow!

Pietro was horrified by the scene into front of him. He knew somehow he did this.

'NO! Nonononononononono! Don't go slow! Speed up!'

Then everything did. They all went so fast. Too fast even for Pietro!

Some girls came up to him and started to flirt with him, but they talked so fast Pietro couldn't understand them.

"Whoa! Girls, slow down a little."

They didn't. No one did. Everyone continued to go fast.

Pietro looked at the clock. It was going haywire. He looked out the cafeteria window and saw it chance from day to night, back and forth.

Everything was going so crazy!

Pietro couldn't take it anymore! He closed his eyes and clenched his head because he was getting a headache from it all.

Finally, he screamed,

"STOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOP!"

A minute later, Pietro opened his eyes and gasped.

Everyone just stood still! They were frozen in time.

Pietro bolted out of the cafeteria.


Looks like Pietro can slow down time and speed it up too.

And he can freeze it!
