At such times they sloughed off their daily personas and lives as easily as a lizard sheds old skin. When discussing it they were transformed. They were true believers, and they knew without a shadow of a doubt that their cause was just. What had brought them together in this small room at this particular time was a burning fanaticism, a bond stronger than epoxene or duralloy cable- a cause each was willing to die for. They came from different backgrounds and different worlds. They differed in coloring, though there was nothing unusual about that. With that single exception, none was especially tall or muscular. With his mouth shut he looked quite ordinary. Unlike his diatribe, his attire was simple and neat. He was a roly-poly sort of fellow topped by a short brush of inspired hair that crawled down to his shirt collar. In another place and time the intensity of his speech and gestures might have seemed unnatural, but they were perfectly appropriate for his present surroundings. And most especially for Betty Ballantine, who first saw potential in them and me, and who helped bring the three of us to life.
