Last Rites for Joshua.

[mattd]

Last rites for joshua.
Jeff looked up as his son left for school,little did he realize that was 
the last time he
would ever see his son happy and alive.He was running a bit late that day 
having been up late exchanging
e-mail and moderating a new subversive website.His work involved 
infiltrating and then COINTELPROing
extremist fringe groups that sometimes looked like they might pose a threat 
to the GOVT.
He got the ransom note that night as his wife prowled back and forth 
shaking and bursting into
tears every few minutes.
It came in the form of an anonymous e-mail that gave a remailer as the 
return adress.It said,
"We want you to come to GPS co-ordinates such and such.At this time.You may 
be observed.any trails
or tricks,josh dies,You saw dirty harry? This is that.any slip ups josh 
dies.Get it,got it,good."
The next 1 hour was a nightmare for the bulky unfit agent as he was given 
the run around,the
city.Once he thought he was to late for one phone box call and he had a 
moment where he thought he
was having a aneurysm.
The phone rang and shocked him back to the black reality of the moment.The 
police that had been
trailing him were long gone.The instructions were simple,take the pill 
taped under the bench down
by the river then walk slowly up to a nearby bridge.He did as he was 
told.The river water was
freezing,his fillings ached.He remembered the bridge though he didn't quite 
make it before
he nodded off falling onto some wet grass was his last memory.
The memories since recovered with hypnosis indicate that Jeff woke up next 
to his son.There
followed some periods where various requests were made by masked men to 
josh and then jeff.
These requests were similar to those made on prisoners of bosnian and 
croation serbs at first.
The sessions were interrupted by long periods of total darkness when josh 
and jeff were forced
by Alsatians into separate pits.By then both were missing 
fingernails,hair,toes,ears,teeth and large patches of skin.
They culminated in jeffs testicles being bitten off by his
own son.After one recovery period jeff was told ordered to turn his son on 
a spit.Jeff noticed
through a red haze that joshua was impaled from his anus to his collar 
bone.He was awake but
seemed to exhausted to scream as he was slowly lowered onto the hot coals.
On jeffs refusal  a large bucket with drifting dry ice mist was wheeled 
in.Jeffs entire
right arm was forced into this container as the hungry Alsatians circled.As 
soon as his arm
emerged it was struck a violent blow.Jeff felt no pain and even little 
emotion as his entire
forearm shattered into crystalline pieces.He knew now he had to turn his 
son on the spit (to be cont)
