The Rather Unfortunates
Oooh, part 5 already. Right, this one concerns the case of Lucifer Ministry.
Do enjoy!
Lucifer Ministry: The Kid with a Passion for Amateur Dentistry
Right then...Lucifer, the kid who prefferred to cause oral pain than play nicely. This one is actually a two-parter; i wrote the follow-up, 'The Rather Unfortunate Demise of Lucifer Minsitry', because he was the only child at the time who did not perish horribly...and he was probably the most deserving of a horrid end, so an entire tale is dedicated to his final moments. Lovely.
With the gusto of an obsessive
And with tearing frenetic,
He emptied the box expecting his shipment
Of Acme Anaesthetic.
But all he discovered in the debris
On some packing tissue beneath,
Was a half rotted,
Saliva smothered set
Of pensioner-standard false teeth.
There was something unusual about these dentures.
Something not quite right.
They had electrodes protruding from the back
And, of their own accord, took a bite!
Then they took another,
And another,
And another.
Before too long young Lucifer
Was screaming for his mother.
