Last Orders

 The bartender at the Holsworthy Arms rings the brass bell that lets out a mighty clang to signal

the end of the day accompanied by the shout of Last Orders one and all;time to drink up and

go home. A dark shadow sits in the plutonian darkness in the corner of the spit and sawdust

bar.The bartender "Excuse me sure it's time to drink up and go home as I have to clean and

close the bar and go home "The Dark Shadow justs stays glued to his chair with not a hint

of movement. The Bartender is starting to feel agitated towards this Dark Shadow of Man

or Women and goes over and enters the Dark Shadows personal space. The Dark Shadow

looks straight at the bartender who falls backwards in shock as it is the man he killed so long

ago when he was a teenager who drank too much ;drove a car and ran him over and left the

scene before being caught up with police charges ."What are you doing here; your dead;it

must be an illustration "said the Bartender. The Dark Shadow just stood up and give him and

asks grin and a wink of a eyes and then said "I here to collect your soul for it am your death

or grim reaper as we would say in the trade " The Bartender then has a massive heart attack

and dies in the spot.
