The Month I was Taoiseach  

The day finally came to the election.  It was very close between me and another person.  The other person who had been running in the election was Rory o Connor.  Rory had ran in the election for a couple of years and was very unlucky each time.  He was winning by 150 votes and they had 500 more votes to count.  On the news at l pm, it said that the votes would be counted by 3pm sharp.  Ireland would then have a new TAOISEACH.  It was five to three and Rory and I were ready to go on national television.  It said I won by 54 votes.  I was the TAOISEACH but Rory O Connor was not one bit happy, so he decided to hire a gunman to kill me and then he would be TAOISEACH for a long time.  I didn't know about this of course. I was getting on grand as TAOISEACH of Ireland.  I was having an important visitor and I didn't know who it was going to be.  He said it was very important and that it was strictly business and that no one was to be around.  Finaly the visitor came in to my off ice............  

and opened his suitcase.  Then he drew his shotgun.  I ducked under my desk and went for my golden lugers.  Then I was ready for action. He started firing at me and I retaliated back.  The gunman is now lying on the floor in a pool of blood.  I searched his jacket and found a walkie-talkie.  Rory 0 Connor asked me was the TAOISEACH dead yet.  I said you would never catch me Rory.  Rory said look out the window and you will see something, so I looked outside the window and saw my best friend with a gun up to his head.  I panicked.  I ran downstairs and ran outside the back to surprise Rory.  Just as I was about to pull the trigger, Rory signalled for the gunman to fire at me. Suddenly I heard a shot so I ducked for cover.  In front of me was my best friend lying on the ground.  The gunman had shot my best friend instead of me.  The gunman turned around talking to Rory 0 Connor thinking that he had shot me.  I caught my golden luger and ..........

tried to shoot.  But the firing mechanism was jammed.  Suddenly the gunman turned around and saw me reloading the gun.  I closed my luger and I aimed for him.  Then the secretary come in.  The gunman aimed for me, but he shot the secretary instead.  The gunman got such a fright he dropped the gun. So I decided I would run.  But I didn't escape because Rory O'Connor saw me running.  He was chasing me for ages.  He lost me but I didn't lose him.  When he was looking for me I shot him.  I went over to see was he dead.  He wasn't.   H warned me to drop my gun or he would kill me.  I dropped my guns but he was too weak to kill me.  So I got my golden luger and shot him in the heart. He was dead and I was thrilled.  Then I went into my office to see where the gunman was.  He was after killing himself.  The next day on the 6.01 news I heard Rory O'Connor and the gunman had gone missing.  the families said that I was the killer.  From that moment I had to get rid of the evidence.  So I wiped my fingerprints off the gun and threw it into the lake.  Then I had to get rid of the bodies.  I decided I would burn the bodies.  Then I went out and I dug a hole in the ground.  Then I put petrol all  over them.  Then I set their clothes on fire.  I got a bag and I put their ashes into it.  I took it down to the lake and threw them into the lake. Then I know the family had no evidence.  the next day I went to the Government buildings to help Charlie McCreevey with the Budgets.
