"The Copper Beeches: One Last Thing" (Rating: G)
Title: The Copper Beeches: One Last Thing
Author: gardnerhill
Word Count: 60
Rating: G
Warning: Not for those who follow modern child-rearing methods.
Summary: I always loathed that sadistic little brat.
EDITED: It wasn't exactly 60 words - I'd foolishly included the header in the word-count at first. Fixed.
***
“One last governess duty, Mr. Holmes,” Miss Hunter said shakily. “And then I will be done with this house forever.” She went down to the cellar.
Our conversation with the local police was interrupted by a smacking sound and an apelike howling. The police and I started in fear.
But Sherlock Holmes smiled. “A spoilt child given his first slippering.”
