We have all heard of the different breathtaking stories of Greek kings and queens and Roman war stories. The one I plan to tell you today is of the man that lived through all of them. You might be asking how someone can live such a long life to experience so much astonishing history, well I would be more than glad to explain just don’t get to anxious. Let’s see where did it all start? Oh yes Alexander III the Great, the King of Macedonia and conqueror of the Persian Empire I would assume most people know him yes? Well it was during his reign that my story begins, it was in his great palace in Macedonia where Griffin Purelife first met King Alexander. If you are asking who Griffin Purelife is he is the interesting man this story is going to be about, keep in mind that Griffin is not like your everyday main character yes he is beautiful like the rest but he is not strong he was not trained by giant men in metal suits he is simply just a peasant that lives in Macedonia. To continue, with what I was saying before, the first time Griffin met the great Alexander was when griffin woke up one morning in his tiny house there is not much to say about it really I’m afraid if I told you more you would probably not believe me it’s that small and simple. The strange thing about this day is that the sky was very dark and the winds were blowing in a ferocious manner a scary like atmosphere if I may say so myself, now in a normal every day morning for griffin he would just take a walk around the market place see what he can buy but today on his way there there were large groups of civilians just blocking his normal walk way so he took what he called a “short cut”. Just so you know this “short cut” is not very civilian friendly just by the looks of it. The buildings around it were positioned in a way that it wouldn’t let the sun shine through on the street it was like a modern day dark alley extremely quiet not a person in sight. As griffin was walking through there was a man at first he didn’t say anything but when griffin walked by strange man whispered his name “Griffin Purelife” the man didn’t move still just whispered. Griffin walked back to attend the man that for some strange reason new his name. This man did not look like no ordinary man, even though there was a hood over his head and a black cloth covering his whole body you can tell there was something wrong with him just by how his body was positioned crooked, weak, old, you can see it all in his posture. Regardless of all of this Griffin politely walked to the petrifying dark figure of a man standing in the shadows and said how do you know my name old man? The old man seemed to just ignore his question and said you don’t know what is coming your way, your king will die and his empire will fall. Griffin simply ignored the man and thought of him as mad Griffin began to walk away and the old man grasped onto his wrist like if he suddenly gained the strength of a of a 30 year old man his grip was like a bear trap just caught your arm griffin could feel his circulation stopping he tried getting lose but it was no good the old man was like stone he wouldn’t budge. Just as Griffin was about to panic and shout and scream the old man took his hood off you could see the shock on griffins face the “old man” was really young he had not one wrinkle on his face he had a full head of hair and no sign of age, it was like this man had never gotten a pimple in his life or a scar or scratch his face seemed perfect to say the least. The strangest thing though was his eyes they were a ghostly color of white but they were blue on the edges it was one of the strangest things griffin had ever seen. For the moment griffin forgot about the man that just assertively grabbed his arm and became lost in his ghostly eyes, a good 10 seconds past before griffin came to his senses and tried getting lose again. The man stayed still for another few seconds and then only said in a much different voice as if he was mad and in a hurry at the same time they know who and what you are leave the kingdom before they find you your running out of time!! The strange man finally let go of his godlike grip, griffin immediately grabbed his wrist because it still felt as if the man was holding on to it. The man began to walk away into the dark alley griffin tried to follow him he kept saying how do you know me? Who is coming? Griffin turned the corner the man had just turned and he was gone as if he vanished in thin air nowhere to be seen griffin stood confused and curious about the events that just happened a second ago and thought to himself the same questions he shouted at the man as he chased him how do you know me? Who is coming? And a new thought that scared him even more was what did he mean they know what i am?..
