Joan heard the guards coming towards the
cell doors.Joan's hands were holding her daughters hands. She could not believe
that they
were going to hang her little 98 pound 13
year old daughter. "Mom", Susan said looking up at her mother.
"Don't let them do this. It was just a cd i stole.
Please." Susan had not stopped crying since
the sentence was announced 6 hours ago.She just stole the cd in the morning then at
noon she was before a judge. She had on
a white dress which her mother gave to her
before they went to the judge. The cell door opened. Two guards came in."It is time Susan." one of the guards Rick said.
He looked at his partner. His partner Abe just
smiled at the little girl."Its time for your dance little girl" Abe, the other
guard, sneeringly said. He reached down
and grabbed Susan away from her mother.Joan jumped up. "No i want to at least hold
her until it is time."Abe smiled at the mother. "Ok you can help
her to the gallows. The crowd will love that."Susan just held onto her mother tightly. Her
small arms wrapped around Joan's slender
waist."Come on Abe be nice she's the kids mom"
Rick replied. Rick and Abe got on either side of Susan
and her mother and started walking towards
the door leading outside.Joan knew she had to be strong for both of
them. She just held her daughter tightly
against her and kept telling her that it will
be ok. "Shh dear. It won't hurt. They know
what they are doing." Just as they reached the door the door opened.
A guard was pushing a stretcher the stretcher
at least covered the body. Except for the hand
that was hanging out. A hand that had thin
fingers and nails painted red. The hand was
also very white.Susan just looked and just gripped her mother
tighter. She felt so frightened.They finally made it outside. The crowd was
cheering. Many in the crowd had never
seen anyone so young to hang. Joan filled up with tears. Many of these people
she knew. These same people so nice to them
just yesterday. She just looked at her daughter.
Susan looked so pale. "Lets go up these stairs." Abe said pointing to
the gallows. Just 13. "I, I can't. No." Susan blurted out. Rick went
to grab her but Joan just held her hand out.
"No she is my daughter i will help her." Joan
felt so sick and scared for her daughter.They slowly mounted the stairs. Joan just
stroked Susan's hair all the way up. "Shh
dear mommy is right here!" Finally they were at the top. The hangman
looked at Susan. He knelt down a bit to be
at her level. The hangman hated doing this
to young girls. His own daughter is Susan's
age. "This really will not hurt," he said
softly. He looked at Joan and whispered
"trust me". The hangman took Susan's hands. "Come
with me." Joan still crying kissed her daughter
on the top of her strawberry blonde hair."MOMMY" Susan screamed looking at the
noose. Joan just held out her hands and
loudly said "I love you." The hangman put Susan's head down. "Please
its better if you do not look." Susan was positioned over the trapdoor. Abe
and Dick quickly shackled her legs together.Tears were rolling down Susan and Joan's
eyes. Joan wrapped her hands around herself
in a protective position. Abe whispered to Susan "Dance little girl
dance" as the hangman was putting the
noose around Susan's neck.Susan tried to back away but couldn't the
noose and leg shackles were constricting
her movement. The hangman looked at Abe and Dick and
said calmly "Get off my gallows. Lets
give some dignity to this girl."Dick pushed Abe in the back. "You doofus
your big mouth," He said realizing that
Abe just did his last hanging. He was just
fed up with Abe's mouth.All that was left on the gallow's were Joan,
Susan and the hangman. Joan looked pleadingly at the hangman, "Please don't! She is only 13.
Don't" The crowd started to chant. "Dance, Dance
Dance" impatiently wanting the girl to dance.The hangman looked at Joan. "Sorry the
best i can do is make sure her neck snaps.
She will not feel much pain." Joan just
put her hand to her mouth and just squeeked
out a "no, please."Susan moved her head towards her mother
and whispered "mommy".That was the last word Susan said. The
trapdoor opened and she fell through. She
felt a snap in her neck then she felt nothing
more. Joan just screamed as she heard the snap.
She just lost her baby girl. She then walked
to the opening and looked down as her
Susan twisted dead in the air. Her head
pointing down in a weird way with the tounge
sticking out.The End.Could you please comment. This is my first
snuff story. Any and all suggestions are
welcome.
I did not write this as a porn story. Just
as an execution hanging story.
The origin of this came from a Bonanza
episode where a son was going to hang
and his mother was being brought to town
and she looked up and saw the gallows. A mother/child bond is an extremely
strong bond and i wanted to write a
story in which a mother had to watch
her daughter hang.I thought this was the most appropriate
ng for a hanging story.Also the idea of executing teens is not
a new concept.If i offended anyone sorry but this was not
meant to be a offensive nor porn story.
Twise Replies:
I really like your stories, please post more. Don't worry about
making them sexy, because that's what it's about here. How
about a story where a guy hangs himself for his girl friends
pleasure....gives new meaning to blowing in the wind?
Thanks!
"Remember, It's Only A Fantasy"
AILSA CHANG, HOST: That staple of social norms, the handshake, is under siege. NPR's Yuki Noguchi reports on how the coronavirus is reshaping etiquette.YUKI NOGUCHI, BYLINE: I contacted Mike Sandifer after seeing his post about alternatives to the handshake. When we meet up, he greets me with an outstretched elbow.Hi.MIKE SANDIFER: Nice to meet you.NOGUCHI: Nice to meet you. I guess...SANDIFER: Bump, bump, bump.NOGUCHI: After nudging me with his elbow, he scans the lobby.SANDIFER: Where's the restrooms?NOGUCHI: Do you see there, where the hand sanitizer is?SANDIFER: Yeah.NOGUCHI: Hand-washing has become a global obsession. It reminds Sandifer of what his mother drilled into him.SANDIFER: Did you wash your hands before dinner? Did you wash your hands after dinner?NOGUCHI: Everyone's preaching hand hygiene, and that's made the handshake taboo, as in #NoHandshake. German Prime Minister Angela Merkel was left hanging after her interior minister denied her outstretched hand. This week, the Dutch prime minister announced a no-handshake rule then promptly turned and shook a health official's hand. He later apologized. Sandifer is a realtor and relates to the deeply ingrained instinct to extend a hand.SANDIFER: You know, people from the South are kind of touchy-feely. We are a handshaking crowd.NOGUCHI: But virus and disease also shaped Sandifer's childhood. In the 1960s, his father attended to polio patients in iron lungs, and his mother always wore gloves for fashion but also for hygiene.SANDIFER: She had beautiful gloves.NOGUCHI: The sort of, like, "Downton Abbey"-type gloves?SANDIFER: Oh, she had gloves of all kinds. They were, like, knitted.NOGUCHI: So what replaces the handshake? That's up for grabs, so to speak. There's the fist bump or a prayer gesture.SANDIFER: The namaste is sort of a nice - I think that that's multicultural, and it's around the world.NOGUCHI: You know, it's funny because my parents are from Japan. So in Asian cultures, you don't have a handshake. You bow.SANDIFER: No, no. My grandmother was born in Japan. That's what she taught us - is that when you met people, you bow.NOGUCHI: The lack of consensus has made greeting people bewildering and, frankly, a bit awkward. Even etiquette experts agree.THOMAS FARLEY: So I am Mister Manners.NOGUCHI: Thomas Farley is a New York-based etiquette consultant. His weekend was full of hands-free greetings, including at a birthday party.FARLEY: The host actually posted a sign which said, this is a hug-and-kiss-free zone.NOGUCHI: That was a coronavirus first for Farley.FARLEY: And what I liked about it, honestly, was it took some of the awkwardness out of it so that the ground rules were there so that everybody could not feel like the bad person.NOGUCHI: At another party, people traded elbow-bumps and foot-shakes, except that was weird, Farley says, because this was a house where shoes are left at the door.FARLEY: That made foot-to-foot contact a little bit more intimate than it might be if you were actually wearing shoes.NOGUCHI: Farley says he's now rethinking how he teaches business etiquette. One core element had been the perfect handshake - not flimsy but not a death grip and certainly not clammy.FARLEY: That's the before. Now, of course, we're suddenly thrust into this new era.NOGUCHI: But even the new era has its limits for Farley.FARLEY: To elbow-bump or chest-bump, it's just - it's not professional.NOGUCHI: So what's your personal favorite?FARLEY: I got to tell you, as a "Star Trek" fan, I love the live long and prosper greeting with the split fingers.NOGUCHI: Back with realtor Mike Sandifer, as he gets up to leave, we chat about upcoming plans.SANDIFER: I got - my birthday's next week.NOGUCHI: Oh, well, happy early birthday.SANDIFER: Thank you.NOGUCHI: Don't blow out the candles, I guess. What are you going to do - like, snuff them out?SANDIFER: I - yeah, no. I'm - well...NOGUCHI: Then he opens the door, gives me another elbow-bump and we part ways.Yuki Noguchi, NPR News.SANDIFER: See, normally, I would've given you a big old hug.
The hanging loop on this open book indicates that the outer corners point downwards. The base of the book is silver. Its design imitates a fine bookbinding. The edges of the book are engraved with a modified egg-and-dart motif but both covers are inset in a corner and center motif design using multi-colored stones (red, white, blue, orange and black. The back of the brooch has a rounded glass or crystal oval with a silver bezel setting, which may have been made as a viewer for a photograph or hair but is empty.-- description by Mindell Dubansky in consultation with Lynn Heckman
