Once

	Once, long ago in the medieval times of England there was a warder, a person who travels land for absolutely no reason except to destroy evil. One day the warder sensed evil in a forest close to his hut and went deep into the vast ocean of green to find the horror.
	Soon after a day and one night of searching he went to sleep. But when he awoke he found himself somewhere so barren and so charred and burned that it was as if it was pure evil. He walked a little and found himself face to face with the biggest, tallest, blackest, most frightening wolf like creature ever. The wolf had huge size in width and at least five feet tall. It also had a long muzzle and the sharpest longest fangs that he thought should belong to a miniature Woolly Mamoth. Then the wolf talked to him. He said that the warder had trespassed the Dark forest and was to be killed, on punishment of trespassing and finding the underground land. Then the warder (all warders are supposed to be the best fighters in the land) drew his mighty sword and charged.
	Right before the warder struck the wolf it changed into a bird. "What are you, you fiend!" asked the warder. "I am the shape shifter of evil and I am invincible," cried the bird. So the warder drew his bow and started to shoot the arrows like he was the god of arrows. But again the shape shifter changed and became a snake with a dark green and black diamond pattern and fangs large enough to go through a full-grown mans leg. Then as if a signal came the snake grew to at least two hundred feet long and five feet wide.
	The warder got only one second of thought before he had to run for his life. He had to run as fast as he could, at least fifteen miles an hour, and as he ran he got an idea that had only one chance and if it worked he would be victorious. He looked around and saw a sword at least eight to nine feet long. So he hid and waited for the tail of the snake to get close to the sword and then he would strike.
	The time came and with all his might he hauled that large steel sword up and brought it down so hard and so strongly that the blade drove into and out of the snake and into the rock ground and went all the way down to the scabbard (the handle) and got the snake stuck. Then he swerved between trees and boulders running away from the long body as hard as he could and soon the snake was in a heap of tight knots and was stuck. Then the warder took out his sword and said his victory words, "Evil can not win, ever." And then he struck the head and killed the shape shifter. The monster immediately melted into black ooze and then evaporated. All of a sudden he found himself out of the wasteland and back in the green forest. As quick as he could he got his stuff and left the forest. When he got home he put his sword on the wall and decided to retire, there, in his little hut, he lived in happiness for the years to come.
