A Day in the Life of a Knight

Princess: O Brave Knight! Save me! Save me! The Evil Hooded Death and the Deceptively Cute Evil Baby Bot got me imprisoned!




Knight: O Beautiful Princess! I shall save you from the clutch of evil! Let the Evil Hooded Death and the Deceptively Cute Evil Baby Bot throw their weapons at me! Nothing will stand between me and your freedom!

...And so the brave knight climbed mountains...



...trekked through forests and plains...



He even had to balance across a swinging rope bridge...



...and braced himself for he almost fell into the deep abyss!



Through his journey, he saw many a-beautiful and exotic flowers; but none can compare to the beauty that the princess possessed.



He dreamed that when he saved the princess from the evil clutches of Hooded Death and Baby Bot, he would bring her to these breathtaking flower fields.



Finally, he arrived at the evil lair! He climbed atop the tall trees to stakeout the area.



But alas, the Evil Hooded Death and Deceptively Cute Baby Bot had close circuit television and they spotted him. They decided to send out the fearsome giant panther with the sharpest claws!




The knight fought a brave battle against the panther and won! But, oh no, the Deceptively Cute Evil Baby Bot sent out his favorite pet, the white tiger!




The brave knight fought another fierce battle and emerged triumphant! But the evil team was not to be defeated so easily. They threw at him the poisonous leaves of a certain succulent plant.



Our brave knight was attacked by a bad case of the itch and temporarily passed out. When he woke up, he found himself in a large cage...



Looking around, he found that his opponent is a massive dragon!



It was a battle to the death against this dragon with the thickest hide and sharp-as-razors claws!



After hours of sweat, blood, pain, and wit, our knight emerged from battle a victor!



He rushed to the evil lair and slain the Evil Hooded Death and the Deceptively Cute Evil Baby Bot.

Princess: O Brave Knight, how shall I ever thank you for saving me from a life of imprisonment? Where is your noble steed? You must sweep me off my feet and carry me off into the sunset!




Brave Knight: O Beautiful Princess, I am tired and still suffer from the horrible itch, please let me rest for a bit.



So the brave knight laid down to rest for a long time. Whist he was starring at the clouds, he thought about what he just did and his future.



Finally, he stood up, faced the princess and said:

- O Beautiful Princess, on my way to save you, the thing that kept me going was how wonderful it must be to save you and live happily ever after with you. But I have given a lot of thoughts, happily-ever-after seems rather boring. I will no longer be fighting fury panthers, vicious white tigers, and fierce dragons. I will have to slave at a 9-5 job so you can buy shoes and purses and cosmetic surgeries. I have decided that I will quit knighthood and become...an ASSASSIN NINJA!



Good bye, I will hail you a cab as my last gentlemanly action!


Special thanks to Baotran for taking some of the photos and my parents for owning such an awesome yard with so many areas for the knight to go on his adventures. Also, a huge thank you to precious Lily and Calvin for playing the fury panther and white tiger!
