Dang it! I told myself no chaptered stories, but here it is. Written for the 10hurtcomfort challenge on livejournal, first prompt is injury. So I joined two challenges one asking for 10 fics, the other 20, that's 30 Monk fics in all (What have I gotten myself into!) They won't all be posted here, but if you like my writing that much, you can check my info page for a link to my journal, where the charts will be updated with links to each story. So far I only have one completed.
Anywhoo, thanks to all who reviewed my first Monk fic…here's number 3.
Mr. Monk Gets Shot
Prologue
The sound of running water could be heard through the soft vocals that belonged to one Frankie Sinatra.
A mellow voice sang along as she hopped along putting plates under the running water, cleaning up her lonely dinner. She stopped singing and began to hum, swaying her hips to the beat of Come Fly With Me. The dishes clattered as she stacked them atop one another. She began to include them into her song.
Come Clang! Fly Clang! With Clang! Me Thump.
The woman tilted her head at the sound that didn't come from her cleaning; she slowly lowered the volume of the stereo and stopped her merry tunes to listen.
Nothing.
She shrugged and made her way to turn her volume up, when the familiar Thump rose again. She then moved her hand to the phone, finally allowing herself to get nervous. She picked up the phone and was met with the fierce beeps of a phone having been disconnected. It would be wise, she decided, to lock herself up in the bathroom right now…
However, as she turned she yelped at the sudden figure standing before her.
"After all I did for you…" the voice hissed with anger, above there was a large kitchen knife…threatening to fall "You deserve to die."
"Please" the woman pleaded "Don't-" her pleading was cut short as the covered figured plunged the knife straight through the woman's heart. The death was instant, and she took her shocked expression to her death.
The killer gave a brief sigh of content, and proceeded to make her death a bit more…messy.
To be continued…
