Chapter #4

Head bisection.

    by: Gimlet Author IconMail Icon
Your view suddenly twists, the room spinning around as...

*Splat!*

"Oh that's weird." you say, then try to look around.

The floor is... very close. VERY close. You can see the grain right... below... your.... Is that your nose? No. Upper part of your nose. It's like the floor was liquid and you were submerged up to your eyes in it. But you can feel your body and it doesn't feel restrained or wet or anything. Why can't yo...

"EEEEEEEEK!" Your sister screams, and she's got quite a set of lungs on her!

You wince and try to move to see her, feeling yourself get up and twist, but your view doesn't move. It's very disconcerting, and you can feel yourself start to topple, but manage to keep your balance. What has happened to you?

Emily screams again, shrill and loud. You try to move again, a little slower to try and figure out what is going on, but bump into something, probably the guillotine's structure.

Looking up you can see... your body, and the mouth up there drops open in shock. The top of your head has been sliced clean off, leaving it (you, your eyes and your brain) resting on the floor.

Another ear piercing screech from Emily and she jerks back to the door, now you can see her it's obvious this is more than just freaking her out. She looks like she's seen a ghost, her face almost white and she's shaking like mad!
