She had just gotten finished up with work, and was about to clock out. As she wiped the counter off, she heard the door open at the bar. Her head shot up and she groaned. "we're actually closed right now, sir," she said, throwing the towel down, looking at the tall man in a trench coat. "I just want a glass of water," the deep voice said, sending a chill down her spine. She cleared her throat, pointing at a chair in front of her. He sat down as she grabbed a tall glass, filling it with tap water. "you work alone?" he asked chugging down the water. She exhaled and said "actually my boss is in the back," she lied, knowing her boss already left. "oh, well, that's too bad.." he said. she laughed nervously "yep..i-it is," stuttering. "it's not such a good idea to lie, now is it," he said, making the lady widen her eyes.

Explanation:

lord, thank you wattpad. sorry this took so long, i was bout to right a whole chapter.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

i go to the store and buy some cheese,suddenly there was akward silence.   out of no where comes a ninja, and he takes an apple, and chokes the cashier, until he passes out.   the disapeared in a puff of smoke.   the cashier went to the doctor, and everything was fine again.   they all lived happily ever after without anymore ninjas.
