Incorrect assumption.

    by: Gimlet Author IconMail Icon
After a brief recap of your venture into the illusions store you smile and pat the guillotine's frame.

"Sooooo..." You said dramatically, "... he said someone used this to save their own life. Guess what that means."

"Wait, it's supposed to end lives, not save them." You sister said.

"Yup, unless it's fixed. I mean, come on. Why would an illusionist happily hand out a guillotine to someone. Dang dangerous, and bad for business if someone injures themselves on it. No, it's faked in some way so the guy survives. Gotta be."

Emily frowned, not looking convinced.

"Um, we just don't know though. I mean, you can't be sure."

"You don't believe me?" Your sis always did have a low opinion of you. "OK, I'll prove it!"

To the shock of your sister you grab the string to active it, shove your head in, and pull.

*SHHHHLLLLUCK!*
