Hello! This story is an idea I had a couple nights ago and I decided to put it on to see if it was any good. Please leave a review and tell me if I should continue the story
Chapter 1: welcome to the underworld
"You lied to me…" Sweeney whispered to Mrs. Lovett.
"No, no, not lied at all," she coaxed, "no I never lied!"
"Lucy..." he whispered in a hollow voice
"Said she took the poison, she did, never said that she died" pleaded Mrs. Lovett
"I've come home again" he told his dead wife softly
"Poor thing, she lived, but it left her weak in the head ! All she did for months was just lie there in bed" she wailed
"Lucy..." he whispered again
"Should've been in hospital, wound up in Bedlam instead, poor thing" she wailed louder, becoming desperate"
"Oh my god..." muttered Sweeney
"Better you should think she was dead! Yes, I lied, 'cause I love you!" Sobbed Mrs. Lovett
"Lucy..." he moaned
"I'd be twice the wife she was, I love you!" she shouted.
"What have I done?" Sweeney said, mortified.
"Could that thing have cared for you like me?" Mrs. Lovett asked him, pleadingly.
"Mrs. Lovett," he said, spinning around to face her, "you're a bloody wonder!" she slowly backed away, he could be dangerous in a state like this
"Eminently practical and yet appropriate as always!" he continued, "As you've said repeatedly, There's little point in dwelling on the past
"Do you mean it?" she asked hopefully
"Now come here, my love" he said walking towards her
"everything I did I swear, I thought it was only for the best" she pleaded
"Not a thing to fear, my love" he assured her
"Believe me" Mrs. Lovett wailed
"What's dead is dead" he said with a smile
"Can we… still be… married?" she said, now grinning
"The history of the world, my pet" said Sweeney, spinning her around in circles
"Oh Mr. Todd, oh Mr. Todd, leave it to me!" she exclaimed happily
"Is learn forgiveness and try to forget!" he told her, with a smile
"By the sea, Mr. Todd, we'll be comfy cozy," she babbled "By the sea, Mr. Todd, where there's no one nosy"
"And life is for the alive, my dear!" exclaimed Sweeney, "So let's keep living it!"
"Just keep living it" they both said "really living it!" screamed Sweeney, then Mrs. Lovett felt herself being lifted off the ground.
She screamed, because she knew she was going to die.
The fire burned, the flames licked her skin as she screamed in terror. Sweeney forced the over shut and Mrs. Lovett gave one final wail before she died.
But suddenly, Mrs. Lovett felt no pain. She curled into a ball and said softly
"So this is what its like to die…"
She sat like that for a while, waiting for something to happen. But nothing did.
She looked up and blinked several times, she was surrounded by corpses and skeletons.
Mrs. Lovett screamed hysterically and began backing up into a wall.
A particularly frightening looking corpse started slowly walking towards her, until they came face to face. Then he said happily
"Welcome to the underworld!"
DON'T WORRY THIS ISN'T A ONE SHOT =]
