Trick-or-Treat

“Trick-or-Treat!” the neighborhood kids said in anxious expectation.

“Gadzooks! Tiny accursed fiends from beyond the grave threatening me with malicious tomfoolery!” cried Sir Gregory (knight from the past somehow now in the present day). He drew his sword, “Away foul hellion! I shall not fall prey to your subterfuge!”

The children scattered as Sir Gregory swung madly.

“No, Sir Gregory!” Timothy ran to the door. “They’re just kids. Just give them candy.”

Sir Gregory pondered, “So this ‘candy’ as you call it has exorcistical properties to drive the demons out of the youth? Quite marvelous inventions of the future!”

Timothy sighed.
