Taylor's story

Intro

"Put me down! Let me go!" the panicked voice of a little blue pop troll with dark bluish-black hair atop his head demanded as the young boy in question was dragged forewords against his will by two of his own kind, the other trolls dragging the poor thing straight towards his doom with seemingly no remorse for what they were about to do to him... "Let go of me, you insolent fools!"

The helpless troll struggled in the grasps of his captors, trying his absolute best to escape his gruesome fate... but... unfortunately... it was no use... that young boy... the one troll who was so different from all the rest... he just couldn't manage to break free of the ropes that held him...

"Stop! Please!" he cried out, pleading desperately with the two figures holding him prisoner who, despite his frantic cries, just kept getting closer and closer to their final destination... a large volcano with smoke spewing out the top of it... "No! Please! I'm sorry! Don't kill me! Please!"

     But the two executioners just wouldn't listen, the air growing hot as smoking embers of fire fluttered almost beautifully through the air...

     He had done the crime... and now... he must pay the time...

     Finally reaching the edge of the bubbling volcano, the two trolls held up the young boy, dangling him dangerously over the boiling hot magma, his eyes wide in horror as all he could do was stare down at what was about to be his fiery grave...

     They quite literally held his life in their hands... these two little creatures making the final decision on weather their prisoner lived... or died...

     "P... please..." the doomed troll pleaded in one final attempt at freedom... at survival... his eyes glistening with tears of despair as he stared helplessly at the seemingly heartless pair dangling him parlously over the smoking lava below.  "D... don't do it...

     His heart was racing painfully inside his tightening ribcage as he stared pleadingly at his handlers... his feet fiercely kicking the hot air below him as if trying to shoo away the burning sensation already engulfing his entire body... the two trolls not even having the decency to spare him a sympathetic glance as they both just stared straight ahead... unblinking... not saying a word... not even making a single sound...

     And then... without even a second thought... they let go...

     Having no regrets of the absolutely horrendous thing they had just done... the two watched as the little blue troll fell helplessly towards the flames, a loud scream of pure terror rising from his lungs before exiting quickly through his mouth...

     "AHHHHHHHHH!"
