A vampire bat came flapping in from
the night covered in fresh blood and
parked himself on the roof of the
cave to get some sleep.
Pretty soon all the other bats
smelled the blood and began hassling
him about where he got it.
He told them to knock it off and let
him get some sleep but they persisted
until finally he gave in.
"OK, follow me," he said and flew out
of the cave with hundreds of bats
behind him.
Down through a valley they went, across a river and into a forest full of trees.
Finally he slowed down and all the
other bats excitedly milled around
him.
"Now, do you see that tree over
there?" he asked.
"Yes, yes, yes!" the bats all
screamed in a frenzy.
"Good," said the first bat, "Because
I DIDN'T!"
