The Guillotine

The Guillotine

The Guillotine,
My Name is Johnny Stuntman, a little about me, I have a super addictive personality. The worst thing for me was watching all those show called Storage Wars!  Soon enough I was show up at storage unit auctions, here and there.  This were my life kinda changed.  I bid on an old Hollywood Studio storage locker, I was shocked I won, as they are so hard to win there.  Wow it had some super cool stuff in it.  I felt so rich, thrown & crowns , knifes & swords, cloaks & suits of armour, oh boy was I going to have some creative fun! Hmmm I’m thinking what the hell is that in the hidden the corner?  There was a big tall tarped item, it sure was not easy to get to, I start mountain climbing to the back of the storage, I reach the tarp, gave it a big long pull.  The tarp dropped to the cluttered floor.  There stood unique carved framed Board’s something that collapses into itself. Well I have get this place emptied in order to see my biggest prize. After many hours after loading  all my treasures were in my white 5 ton truck.  At last I dragged that wooden framed thing out, With great difficulty by myself it must have weighed 300 lbs I braced my knees & back and began to pull it a part, what the heck, ropes and levers start to show at the bottom is a big steel plate jammed into the  landing zone. By God it’s a creepy old Guillotine!! Well I’m sure it’s not real, I’m sure it’s just for show, one scary prop I’m sure.
I’m thinking what next a stretching loom lol.  Oh wow this was such a cool item to unwrap,  I’m going to have a blast with this… I finished loading this monstrosity then drove back to my studio/warehouse, I started setting each item out, making each of them create a cool cruel platform each it’s demented role.
I stood in front of my large majestic Guillotine hands on my hips wondering does this thing really work??!! I notice a few mannikins in a Rubbermaid bin, so grabbed a head and torso, I carefully laid it down on the Guillotine bed, I grabbed the side ropes & chains pulling back on the ropes, the blade lifted higher & higher, with a abrupt clanking noise it snapped in place, locked in place at over 6 feet, such a scary sight.  My heart fluttering with Fear and excitement of wanting to see the decapitation of the manikin, I pushed it so it head hung over a galvanized metal drop bin, I guess for the tumbling head and guts that spray out in. On the floor beside this monstrosity of hell was a foot paddle attached to a metal cable, that pulled the  release clip of the sharp blade above, I don’t know what’s was driving me to it, but before I knew it the shiny metal blade came slamming down, giving the mannikins a new look headless the head fell to the ground rolling in the metal bin below. Rubbing my hands thinking holy shit this is so cool.  That night I laid in bed, my soul was being over taken by this strange eerie device.  I need more my brain would not stop saying and before I knew it I was chopping up watermelons & pumpkins and my appetite grew forcing me to find lost cats & dogs! Treating them to a torturous demise in my Guillotine!! I’m quickly turning in to a freak, desposting of those kinds of bodies came easy, just wrap them in a bag throw them in a bin 4 miles down the road, not feeling a bit guilty when seeing the lost & found posters on FB!
When going to bed at night, I got zero rest,  I’ve somehow become Demon possessed by my newest toy & slaughter game, I grew weaker to its call! Come Johnny you need me as much as I need you said the Guillotine and much much more! I’m shaking my head no No NO!!! But my thrill became out of my control, now how can I stop this thing, It says just bring me more play things!
What and how can I do this, I asked? It said I need Humans nothing less!!
How will I do this, how can  this work, where do I find unfounded prey for The Guillotine games?  Ohhh over seas brides, they are never traced and easy to hide, my brain is thinking.
Before I new it I had internet dates knocking on my door with a suit case in hand.
Of course I never had trouble landing a girl I’m  6/3 and all with natural brown curly hair, I was built like a rancher super strong physique, it seemed I had a gold mine of ready to go meat for his Feast!!  First was Estella so cute & slim, after a few to many beverages, she was easy prey to offer to it! Yes the Guillotine has stolen my soul.. Next was Cassandra Jacqueline Karina and so many more!!
Now the biggest trick of their Demise was trying to find a place dispose of those bodies so sad but exciting, so weak & innocent but so beautiful!
My warehouse there had the biggest coal shoot, that fed a big boiler below, now hot as a fresh shot gun most hours, now converted to natural gas, this was just so fricken perfect hahaha!!
No smell no mess , quickly each time dumping out each of their heads & Bodies, each banging thunking then a big bump,  yup gone gone gone!! But then it was not enough, it called to me in the middle of my nightly sleep… I need more!! I’m like what the hell!!
Then at that moment!  Bang Bang Bang at my door!! Johnny Stuntman open this door?? I’m in so much trouble because of this device,  I quickly had no chance but to run or I would not get past they Cops!! I Gavin quick its My time! I’m done it was my turn to give myself to it, the Guillotine from hell, inlaid flat on my back & I pray Please get this over quick Guillotine!! Just as I said that I heard that metal pedal hit the floor, I laid with my arms across my breast looked up to see that sharp blade come straight down….!!!! BANG!!My head rolled into the Metal Basin below , I was about to close my eyes for evermore! Only to see standing there the next owner of this horrifying device.  It was Constable Joe White!! I’m now rolling down the coal shoot for my final demise, Thank God I said!! Just then I heard
The Guillotine said really loud to Constable Joe White rest now, I call You later to night!! We dine at midnight….
