The World Went Silent

Chapter 19

The time had finally come. Len glared at the guards dragging him as he stepped out onto the platform. He had watched enough executions to know how this went. The 'princess' looked out into the crowd, until he spotted someone. Len's eyes widened slightly as his gaze fell upon his twin sister, who he could easily pick out in the crowd. She looked broken. But she was at least safe. Len sighed and smiled at her before he was shoved under the guillotine.

The church bells started to ring. Len could feel his heart pounding in his chest. The end was coming. He could feel it, each second that passed was one second closer to his death. He looked down at Rin again, who was clutching something to her chest as tears billowed down her cheeks. At least she wasn't harmed.

"Oh, it's snack time," Len smirked as he could hear the guillotine being released. The crowd began to cheer. There was a slight pain in his neck.

And then the world went silent.
