Super Cow text

 

There is a girl. She is a beautiful blond. Her name is Buffy and she lives on a farm with vampire
cows. The cows love to suck blood! Dracula (King of the Vampires) once owned them!

One day, there is a powerful rainstorm! It lasts 7 days! The rain turns into a big river flowing by
Buffy’s farm. She moves her cows to higher ground. But she slips and hits her head on a giant
tree. The fall knocks her out for a moment or two. When she comes to, Xander is licking her
face. Xander is her favorite cow.

The water rises. Buffy gets up and walks with Xander. The water is now waist high. Buffy is
tired. Finally she throws her arm around Xander’s neck and hangs on. 27 minutes pass and
Xander pulls Buffy out of the water. They are on a small island in the middle of the big river.
It is noon. The sky is dark and it rains very hard. Rescuers discover Buffy right away. A plane
takes her to the emergency room at the hospital.

Two days later, Buffy goes back to the island. Xander is gone. He is one of 17 vampire cows
that Buffy looses. Buffy cries and cries. Buffy says “I owe my life to him after all!!!” “He
saved me.”
