It’s him

It was a dark and silent night when it happened. I was driving up to Arizona with my two best friends, Alexis and Morgan, when we spotted what looked like a hooded hitchhiker on the side of the road. Alexis suggested that we stop and give him or her a ride. Morgan was much more hesitant, however, siting that for all we know he could be a serial killer or a psychopath. I shared his sentiments but, since it was almost Christmas, I decided to pull over and give the person a ride. Lucky for us, I had a gun in the glove department. When I pulled over Alexis yelled, "DO YOU NEED A RIDE!?". We heard a man reply, "YES PLEASE! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!!". He rushed to the car and hopped in the back seat with Morgan. "Hello, my name is Kevin and this is Alexis and Morgan". "Nice to meet you all", the man replied. "And who are you?", Replied Morgan. The man took off his hood... It was him! The president of the united States of America!! Well, the former president of the united States of America. There was a coup, the rebels have taken control of the White House and the Pentagon. We heard that the president escaped but BY HIMSELF!? From the moment we first saw him, we knew that there was no going back. We had to help him in any way we can.
