A slow boil

Atop the grandly gruesome stovetop

It broods in the deep, dark depths of it's cage.

"Turn up the heat! We won't be able to use that thing if it's not cooked!"

The shaky fingers complete the order.

It can feel the radiating heat come though the floor.

It's grey skin reddens.

If it could scream it would, but it just laughs.

It can't move anymore but it laughs.

If that man was competent, it wouldn't be in so much pain now.

But no, he had to make his apprentice do this.

Arrogant piece of crap.

Ah!

There it comes.

It's little angel.
