Drabble: Pillock

It's that time again. We've had a break and now we're on to episode 9 The Puppet Show at fantas_magoria

I've done a drabble. I've since learned that drabbles are 100 words. I made it, not including the title. I never realised how hard drabbles are, my stories are usually so much longer.  Oh, I just did a recount. It is 100 including the title. *head desk*

*bows to the writers who write amazing drabbles*

I hope this is something worth reading.

Pillock

Giles could smell his own sweat. He struggled against his fate but he knew it was hopeless.  He lay supine beneath the sharp blade that threatened his existence.

Of course I’ll put my head in the guillotine. Strap me in, I’ll be happy to be your assistant. Let the blade fall and my head will be cloven in two. I can see it now, written in the Council’s journals:  Rupert Giles lost his head in Sunnydale. It wasn’t much of a loss, he wasn’t using it anyway.

Pillock!

He should have known better. This was the Hellmouth, after all.
