How do you know when it's all over? For me it's over when those green eyes that once gleamed at me go dull. It's when those eyes glaze over with tears as he realises what he has done. He'll probably be petrified as he feels his blood drain away along with his life. Maybe he'll simply make peace with death as he stares it in the face, darkness clouding his vision or moving towards the light. I don't know where they go when they're gone. All I know is I feel that familiar rush of adrenaline as my knife slashes their throat, or my finger pulls that trigger. This time I'll switch it up, make it more of a performance. A showdown with this cowboy, the finale ending with his silver chain cutting off his windpipe and splitting his skin for added dramatics. -- -- -- A short story I wrote for creative writing class. Hope you enjoy it, it got me an A. (TW: self harm, violence, death)

Someone walks into the room but I cannot see its face. It looks like a man and by the look of his posture, he seems very important. "Why were you in my territory?" His voice is strangely calm however I think its the calm before the storm. "I didn't know it was your territory! For gods sake how many times do I have to tell you people? Just let me go and I promise I won't say anything to anyone. Not like I have anyone to tell." The last part I said in a whisper. He didn't need to know the situation I was in. I hear the cock of a gun making me raise my head. The all too familiar sound ringing in my ears. "I don't believe you bitch, so you better tell me the truth or your brains are gonna end up on the wall." Ah there's the storm. "A gun doesn't scare me arsehole, I've had way worse things than that!" He steps forward into the light so I can see his features. He is extremely good looking but right now is not the right time to admire his beauty. I stare straight into his pitch black eyes, daring him to try harder than this. He smirks and leans forward searching my eyes. Before I can even register what's happening, he punches me in the face. *** Mature Content
