Lorna spoke not a single word as she dragged flapjack by the mane kicking and screaming to the old windmill on the far side of the property
Flapjack began to plead for mercy
“ Miss wowna Pwease!!!”
No response
“Take weggies!!!”
Lorna didn’t even turn her head
“Take see pwaces!!!”
Not even a brow twitch
“ make fwapjack piwow!!!”
It was as if she had not spoken even in the first place
Lorna unlocks the door to the old windmill
She pulled a small chain hanging from the ceiling
A single lightbulb sputters then flickers dimly
There were only five things in the building
An electric razor
A dull pizza cutter
A plastic bin
A pair of shoulder length waterproof gloves
And a faucet connected to a pipe that lead somewhere on the property
Lorna shaves all the fluff off of flapjack
“Nu wan!!!”
Lorna takes the pizza cutter and carves a series of repeating diamond patterns on every part of flapjacks body save for her face
“MUMMA SAVE BABIE!!!”
Lorna places the plastic bin beneath the faucet and turns the valve
“Muma Wuv B.babbies , HU-HU! Babbies W.wuv muma!!!”
From the faucet poured a pungent filthy stagnant water
Flapjack begins sucking her hoof
Lorna puts on the gloves
“CHIRP!!! CHIRP!!!”
Lorna picks up flapjack by the neck fat
“PEEP!!!PEEP!!!”
Lorna lowers flapjack into the water making sure to keep him head
Above the water
The filthy water enters every cut and open wound on her body
“WAN DIE!!!”
After about five minutes Lorna lifts flapjack out of the water and takes her to a plexiglass sorry box in the center of the yard and tosses her in
Three agonizing days later
Flapjack dies
Whether it was the result of maggots eating their way out of her flesh or the infection
We will never know
