[ WP ] Dad Jokes are actually spells to protect children .

I never knew why my dad would say his jokes at random times. Like sometimes I would be crying and he would make one. I did n't get it. Was he trying to cheer me up? Sometimes when we were on a road trip and once we got to our destination he would make one. I never got it and always hated them due to how corny and cringe they were. I hated them until I found out why he did it. 
 
 It was a cold and gloomy night in December. I was alone in my room and doing homework. I laid on my bed and was writing a poem for my English teacher. I was cuddled by the warm blankets on top of me. The whole day it had rain and even know it was raining harder than before. The house was freezing cold. The heater did n't work that week and my dad said he would fix it. 
 
 My mom and brother had left for the night since my brother was in soccer and was going a state away and my mother wanted to see him. My brother is loud and him being gone was a miracle for me. The house was quite and all that I could hear was my music in the background. 
 
 After a while of during my homework I headed outside my room to go get a cup of tea. The house was still oddly quite. My bare feet touched the cold wooden floor chilling me. I headed into the kitchen and walked to the counter where my mug which already had the tea brewing. I picked it up slowly seeing the vapor rising. That was when the silenced was broken BAM! I jumped up dropping the mug out of my hand. It fell to the wooden floor and broke into pieces. I looked around trying to find out what it was. Then a beast came out. The beast had jet black fur and was about 6 foot. The beast was standing on 2 legs and body was almost human. Except for it's 4 eyes. 2 eyes were on it's cheek while the other were right above his nose. The beast had 3 rows of razor sharp teeth. I wanted to scream. 
 
 The beast let out a roar that was so loud i though I would go deaf. The beast charged at me and all i could do was stand still watching it. It's mouth was open and I knew it was going to bite. `` I was thinking about moving to Moscow but there is no point Russian into things'' I heard my dad yell behind me. The beast flew backward and slammed it's body against the wooden floor cause another BAM!. 
 
 I was confused and scared. `` Dad'' I said in a voice of shock. He walked in front of me and he gave me a look. The beast began to try to get up and let another roar not as load as the other one. `` Why do crabs never give to charity? Because they're shellfish.'' my dad yelled louder than I have ever heard him yell. The beast blasted straight up and then disappeared leaving behind smoke. I ran torward my Dad who stood there staring at the smoke. 
 
 He turned around and stared at me `` are you okay?'' he asked in a worried voice. `` yea im fine, how did... how did you do that?'' nervously I asked. `` Well I told dad jokes'' He replied smiling a goofy grin.
