The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum - View Single Post - WWJ VI: Return to Midsomer Mawlin

It was another extraordinary day in Midsomer Mawlin, Boromir the Seer had been found dead and without his guidance suspicion had initially fallen on Diamond 18. Were their suspicions genuine or were they merely jealous of her youth and beauty when so many of her fellow villagers were not, to put it gently, in the first flush of youth.

It seemed she was doomed - in a fit of bravado (or was it pique) she volunteered for the gallows and was debating her choice of last words ("You are all a bunch of idiots" was favourite) when Jenny, perhaps out of solidarity for a young investigator said that she didn't think that a wolf would volunteer to be hanged. Nogrod agreed and added "I still think Kitanna is suspicious lets hang her instead! "

"You can't hang me - that's discrimination" protested Kitanna, "Haven't you heard about the Disability Discrimination Act of 1995?"

"Sure we have" said Diamond, who had now decided that "Die" was not on her list of things to do that day. "We are giving you full access to the village's execution facility" .

Kitanna tried to make a break but Diamond's reactions were lightning and kicking away Kitanna's cane she pushed her to the floor.

The teenager and diagnostician wrestled but Diamond had taken the cane in both hands and held it down across Kitanna's throat. She pressed harder and though Kitanna writhed she could not escape.

"Help me, you idiots" yelled Diamond. Mormegil went for Sleepy Ranger's naval sword and less helpfully, Firefoot ran to the nearby Cooperdale Cottage for the log and hit Kitanna round the head with it rendering her unconscious.

For a moment she lay still. Then the physicians's body started to transform.

Mormegil ran her through with the sword before the wolf could regain consciousness.

The shortest plague of werewolves was over.
