Choices (George Harrison) (COMPLETE)

61

"So, I suppose you know by now that George is a wanted criminal," Michael begins.

George and Ella look at each other, unsure of what to think.

"You killed my father—"

"It was self defense!" Ella exclaims.

"Shut up you stupid bitch! You're an accomplice. You're wanted almost as much as George," Michael snarls.

Ella falls silent. She lowers her eyes to the ground.

"You've upset my mother terribly, you know that? My brothers too. Hell, you're lucky I found you before they did."

George glares at him, but doesn't say anything.

"There's no doubt in my mind that the authorities are searching everywhere for you. If they find you, you'll both be put to death. I should just kill you myself."

"Then why don't you?" George snaps. Ella cringes and grabs his hand.

"Oh, I could. I most definitely could." Michael smirks and raises the gun, pointing it directly at George's chest.

George stiffens, waiting for the shot.

The gun is lowered. "But I'm not going to. Instead, I'm going to ensure that you're both put to death by the law."

"And how exactly do you plan on doing that?" George asks sarcastically.

Michael doesn't answer. Instead, he repositions the gun and points it at himself. Ella notices his hands are trembling and her eyes widen as he realizes what he's going to do.

He pulls the trigger.

It all happens in the blink of an eye.

Michael falls to the ground, dead.
