The Presence

He sensed the presence before he saw it
Taking out the glowing katana he gave chase

At exhilarating speed through the sleep town
The presence eluded him taking to the skies

The rural village for now will stay safe
From the influence of dark invaders

The people will be safe and live on
No official record of the event will exist
