The Quick and the Deed :: 50 Word Short Story
I've missed out on the last couple weeks of 50 Word prompts offered by the tireless @jayna. One wouldn't think it would be difficult to find time to write 50 words. One would be wrong. Onwards we march!
This time, we are offered the prompt word: "deed"
Bill laughed. Being sheriff was easy. He counted the money, then slipped the envelope inside his uniform shirt, looking the other way.
A gunshot. His view changed to a close-up of the street. Footsteps. Someone reached inside his shirt, taking the envelope.
“Ya’ll don’ need dis. Ya’ll be deed soon.”

Oh my gosh, that is so demented and funny. And what a hilarious take on the prompt. That one would never have crossed my mind!
Nice.

I love the way your mind works to come up with quite unique creative stories.
Haha. Great story, @negativer. Quite a twist on the prompt. Fast as a gunslinger. Crime don't pay.
