Written for: October Event: Ghost Hunt

Prompt: Nearly Headless Nick


Nicholas de Mimsy-Porpington


Nicholas stood over his own body as he watched the blunt instrument hack away in a very undignified manner. Surely they had the decency to at least sharpen the tool beforehand?

Or was this part of his punishment too? To be made a fool of, even on the day of his death!

Another swing, causing Nicholas to look pityingly at his former body. All of this because he had accidentally caused Lady Grieve to grow tusks? He had of course fixed the tusks. But people seemed to forget that part, wanting to punish him for his completely harmless mistake.

His fingers reached up to touch his severed neck, as he watched his former body being removed from the chopping block.
