Trapped in Taormina [Concluded]

Day 5 - Conclusion



Porta Messina - Taormina - 10.30 p.m.

It was hot that day. Even now, at 10.30 pm it was still 30° Celsius.

The smell of anxious sweat was dominating.

Several people were being found suspicious.

Two of them were most probably guilty, according to the townspeople.

Both Northnovas and Omanes were put forward. The mob started to hit them both and somebody had two ropes ready for them.

"Wait! Wait! We shouldn't lynch more then one person each day! The Carabinieri said so!" a voice yelled.

"Screw the Carabnieri! He's dead now! What good were his rules for him, eh? Lynch them both! Blood, we want to see blood."

"No!", a tall man stepped forward. "We have to obey the rules!"

The crowd yelled at the man.

"I will rather die then break the rules," the man, also known as Mithrandir, said.

He ran to the funivia and jumped, yelling : "My noble camel who died bravely during the eruption, I..."

SPLASH!

The people were shocked. Somebody did a recount and noticed that Northnovas had more votes then Omanes.

The crying Northnovas soon had a rope around his neck. Before he could make a last wish, he was swinging on the Porta Messina. A few minutes later, Northnovas was no more.

"Tommorow morning at the Teatro Greco", somebody yelled. Everybody nodded in agreement.

***

Before going to bed, Bananabob and Tratorix decided to take a walk to the funivia, to see if they could retrieve Mithrandir's body to give it a proper burial. When they reached the edge, however, Bananabob slipped away. Tratorix tried to save him, but the 120 kilo's of Bananabob, who had discovered the delicious Penne ala Norma, a local speciality, were too much for Tratorix and they both fell down, a sickening "splash" sound marking the end of their lives.
