It’s All About the Blood

by Andrew Kurtz

“Enos, I’m your brother!” Ted screamed as he was being lowered into the vat of scalding acid.

“Satan demands the sacrifice of a blood relative in order for me to receive the dark power!” Enos shouted maniacally.

“You were…” Ted didn’t finish as the acid engulfed him, disintegrating his flesh and bones.

“I have done as you asked, now grant me my reward!” Enos demanded as a red bolt of lightning streaked across the room, electrocuting Enos’s body until only a charred skeleton remained on the ground.

If Ted had one second more, Enos would have heard the word, “adopted.”
