Chapter 3

"I'm Choking!"

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Voldemort and his Death Eaters were sitting and the round table,

quite like King Arthur and his knights, drinking Firewhiskey's and

eating peanuts.

A jolly Lucius kept throwing peanuts at Crabbe trying to get him to catch

them in his mouth. He only succeeded in getting a lot of peanuts in Crabbe's

bra.

Observing the fun that was being had Voldemort said," Hey, Lucius, over

here."

Lucius threw a peanut and it narrowly missed Voldemort's mouth.

frowning, Voldemort motioned for Lucius to continue. He missed a few more

times and then hit Voldemort's mouth.

With a shocked look on his face Voldemort began to spurt and sputter.

Looking concerned Severus Snape got up to assist his master and rushed

over to the heaving Dark Lord. He face was beginning to turn purple and

he fainted on the floor. Snape crouched down and examined Voldemort.

"I'm going to try to get the peanut out," said Snape as he pulled up his

sleeve preparing to enter Voldemort's mouth. Lucius was crying like a baby.

"There'll be no need for that," said Voldemort as he shot up looking

thoroughly amused. "Hahahahahahaha! Tricked you!" he said as he double

over in laughter. "Gimme some more of those peanuts."

Lucius handed Voldemort the peanuts looking hurt as Voldemort continued to

laugh. Snape hissed his disapproval at the joke and how he had been

embarassed.

Voldemort took a handful of peanuts and stuffed them into his laughing

face. Swallowing another look of shock came to his face and he began gasping

for breath.

Snape rolled his eyes and Lucius refused to look at him and fall for the

same trick.

"I'm *gasp* cho.....king!" Voldemort gasped.

"We're not falling for that one again," a Death Eater said.

Voldemort's face turned different shades of purple and he collasped to

a heap on the floor. The Death Eaters stood in silence waiting for him

to give up on the joke. They stood there for a good twenty minutes. Finally

Severus walked over to examine him and found that the Dark Lord was dead.

He sighed," I guess he really was choking, then."
