UNIVERSE BOWL IX: CHAPTER XVI

City Region – Philadelphian Sector. . .

Aunt May walks down the street next to Air Bud.  The two are stopped by Alfred Pennyworth.
Alfred Pennyworth: Miss May, I’m afraid I must dispose of both you and the canine.  The butler draws a small pistol from his coat pocket.  Air Bud barks.

Aunt May:  Get help, Air Bud!
Air Bud runs down the street, barking.  Pennyworth points the weapon at the dog, closes one eye and fires.  A yelp is heard as Air Bud is shot.  The mortally wounded dog attempts to move further, but is unable to do so.  Air Bud lies down and dies.  Aunt May sees her companion fall and begins to wobble.

Pennyworth:  Sorry for that madam, but. . .
Aunt May:  Oooooh, I think I’m having a heart attack.

Aunt May crumples to the ground.  Pennyworth rushes to the woman and cradles her head in his lap.
Pennyworth:  We may be foes, but I am not a heathen.  Close your eyes.  Sshhhhh.

Aunt May:  One final request, Pennyworth?
Pennyworth:  Anything madam.

Pennyworth brings his head close to Aunt May.
Aunt May: DIE!!!

Aunt May rips a knife from her skirt and stabs Pennyworth in the jugular.  Pennyworth’s blood erupts as directional spray throughout the area.  The look on Pennyworth’s face emotes utter shock as he dies.
Aunt May rises.  She wipes the blood from the knife on her skirt, tidies up and begins to walk, once again, down the street.

Elderly Bruce Wayne emerges from an alley.
Elderly Bruce Wayne:  You’re going to pay for that, Aunt May.

Elderly Bruce Wayne slowly treads toward Aunt May.  She closes her eyes as Elderly Bruce Wayne reaches her and, with a swift motion, breaks her neck.

The rumble in the nursing home! R.I.P Alfred. You were the finest butler a team could ask for. I will miss those hot toddys on a cold winter's eve.

RIP Aunt May. Well worth the cost.
