"Let's take this up another notch," Ormann said with a chuckle as he poked Nathaniel in the stomach. Nathaniel was shrinking proportionally, smaller and smaller until he was about the size of a basketball.
"Another notch?" Nathaniel squeaked from the floor.
"Indeed." Ormanny replied as Nathaniel began to float. "I am filling you with helium. I plan to take you outside for a walk."
Once Nathaniel floated high enough, a string appeared around his ankle and Ormann took ahold of it. "It's a beautiful day. Let's go outside."
Nathaniel gulped nervously as Ormanny walked outside but he had to admit that it was excited to float like a balloon and be tugged around by a string. He couldn't help but giggle when people were looking at such a strange balloon!
Suddenly, on the streets, a big burly cop stopped Ormann.
"What's that?" The cop said as he pointed to the suspicious looking balloon.
Ormann looked the cop over curiously and smiled. "It is my balloon."
Nathaniel tried his best to wave but instead, the hand just wiggled back and forth.
The cop appeared surprised. "It's... alive?"
"Indeed, he is. I'm taking him for a walk." Ormann chuckled, "Don't worry. He is enjoying this very much. You on the other hand..." He paused as he looked the cop over again. "... you look like you need to relax a bit."
