It was a cold December evening when a stranger knocked on our
door. We were very surprised because it was quite late already. When I opened
the door it turned out that it was not a complete stranger who knocked on our
door because we all knew him. The person who knocked was no other than the
United States sixteenth President, Abraham Lincoln. But the fact that Honest
Abe knocked on our door was not the most shocking thing about that night. It was
that he was holding an axe tipped with silver.
But the
strange things did not stop there. He asked us if he could come in and we said
yes. I mean who would not want one the greatest leaders of all time in their
house? We asked him if he was hungry since he is our guest. He said no. He also
said that he has important task to do and he could not do it on his own. So he asked
me if I would like to accompany him. First I asked what that task was because I
do not want to go and accept something without knowing that something is. He
first told me not to laugh at what he was going to say because even though it
will sound silly and childish, he is very serious about it. He said to me with
a VERY serious face that he is tasked to hunt a Vampire. I did not doubt him
that there are vampires in this world so I immediately said yes.
We set out
on dawn. I was very, very excited. While we were looking for the vampire, Abe
told all about life in his time. He said that it was very hard especially with
vampires sowing discord among the people. After 30 or so minutes, we finally
reached the place where the vampire was said to be hiding. It did make sense that
the vampire would hide in an alley because it was really dark in there. We found
the vampire and then Abraham fought it fiercely and it was a good thing that he
gave me his other axe because when the vampire came for my blood I was able to
protect myself from his sharp fangs. While the vampire was occupied with me Abe
then snuck up behind him and decapitated him in one graceful swing of the axe.
After the
hunt, we returned to our house and he said that he had a lot of fun that night
and he let me keep the axe that he gave me because he said that I earned it. Sad
to say that that axe is now lost. But nevertheless we both had a lot of fun.
