The Night the Empire Fell

With thanks to :tintinscottie8674

As Sarah walked into the dimly lit room she could only think that soon everything would be better, as a student at the elite college of New Durham she was one of the best but no-body truly new what she was capable of not even she was aware of her true fate. As she walked into her Advanced law class she sighed in desperation she realised that today was the day of her dissertation this dissertation would decide her future and decide whether or not she would be allowed to continue onto the highest degree of law, Governmental Law. But today was different today she had planned everything meticulously, Today was the day she would kill her class.

Outside the birds were stirring the Clouds were Crying down upon the earth with their acidic tears even the wind was blowing with an cold gale force that would spike fear into the souls of anyone unlucky enough to be caught in it. As she began writing her final dissertation thoughts of her statistical plot were running through her mind, soon nothing would be calm and everything would be different in the British Empire everything was centred around the New Durham College the school of the elites and the main power house of the Empires Government, Even the Emperor John Ridley had been trained at the school just like his father before him and his father before him, today he was visiting his place of education and today he would die, of that Sarah was sure.

As the bell rang, calmly Alan Galley the Dean of the College dismissed the class and thanked them for their "tremendous patriotism in the Face of the Government" and assured them all that by the morrow all would be assessed and graded and awarded the highest degree, Lords of the Supreme Parliament. As everyone started to leave Sarah retrieved her mobile phone from her bag and calmly sent the text message to her partner in this devious plan of treason and treachery, Wendy Harrison, the Most Powerful Lady in the empire and the mistress of the emperor himself she was going to change the world and she could only do it with the help of Sarah, the text message simply read "Its Time".

Reading this message Wendy knew that this was their final hour, as she equipped the gas canisters to her body she hoped that she would not die in vain, contained in the canisters were the most potent gasses known to man; BZ gas, Sarin Gas, Ricin Gas and of course an old favourite Sodium Cyanide. Together Sarah and Wendy would be able to overturn the entire empire and allow for the true Princess to regain control.

As the Emperor Arrived at the school his entourage surrounded him and made sure their was no direct line of fire, inside however Sarah had finally shown her true capabilities she had already killed the chief security officer Thomas Simpson, as the he clawed his eyes out at the effect of the BZ gas he cried in pain however he was soon put out of his misery as Sarah slowly used her sword to sever his neck open, as the sword cut through the jugular vein the blood spattered on Sarah's face her sadistic smile widened as she licked the warm blood that was now over her lips, everything was in motion and soon everything would end.

As Wendy took her place at the entrance hall people gathered to see the most revered man in the land, the emperor, Wendy's grin only masking the sardonic true intentions that she had, as everyone took their place no one knew that at the other end of the hall Sarah was massacring her classmates, as she finished her last classmate with a quick swipe at the legs the blood spurting everywhere she plunged the sword into the heart of her victim, the janitor Chris Wilkinson, as she removed the sword from his still warm carcass she brought the blade to her lips and with a bone shivering smiled brought her tongue to the blade and slowly licked away the blood of her latest victim, there was only one last person she needed to kill to complete the plan, Allan Galley, as she dropped her Gold plated blade she took the small silver Dagger from her inside thigh and with a devious smirk upon her face writhed it through the trembling body of her Lecturer as the blood was freed from his veins she licked her lips and in started shaking with anticipation soon everything would be over.

As Lady Wendy greeted the empire she wondered if Sarah was finished with her part of in she couldn't risk Allan getting in the way again, then she saw her across the hall Sarah smiled with a big fearsome grin and nodded her head and Wendy new that it was now or never.

As she pressed the release button she held her breath and watched as the screams came out people were crying tears of blood and so was she, in her last moment of life she looked over towards Sarah who was wearing a gas masked and then she realised that it was not the princess who would take over the rule of the land it would be Sarah the most twisted and smartest girl ever to pass through New College Durham and now she realised that she was only a pawn in the intricate game of death she planned and then she noticed behind Sarah was the body of the princess Ellie Roberts the last true heir to the throne of Britannia. As Wendy dropped to the floor Sarah let out an eerie laugh and under the mask she smiled as she saw before her the death of all those who had thought they were special and the blood of the self-righteous stained the floor, she had won now and knew that nothing could stop her now, as by the morrow everyone with life in their bodies would fear her name…
