“Then tell me!” Eli said, feeling a bit too impatient to hear the rest of the story.
-
'Alright, alright,' Callum laughed, taking a seat at the back. 'On the night, the escapologist stood in front of the audience of 1000 people, and announced, "The burning woman hurling through the air with dynamite in her hair over sharks and spiky objects has been cancelled",' he paused. '"Because my wife is.... pregnant".'
-
Eli grinned. “Just like she wanted! Happily ever after-right?”
(Oh my gosh Eli sounds like the reaction channels🤣) -
(he does 😂)
'No,' Callum responded. 'The acrobat's evil stepsister didn't allow it to be cancelled. She shouted, "I've paid for the stadium, the props, the toilet blocks! You will perform tonight, and I will get my money".' -
Eli gasped. “That’s absurd! They can’t even postpone it?!”
-
'Nope,' Callum shook his head. 'And so the acrobat stepped onto the stage, getting ready to jump. The escapologist was locked in a cage, and had 28 seconds to unlock himself and catch his wife. The acrobat lit the dynamite in her hair, and jumped. Her dress was on fire. 27, 26... She hurled through the air, 23, 22, the escapologist struggled in his chains, 18, 17, 16, 15, over the sharks and spiky objects...'
-
Eli was stunned to silence as he listened, desperate to find out what happened next.
-
'12, 11, the escapologist was still in the cage, 9, 8, 7, 6, the barred door swung open and the escapologist held out his arms for his wife, and the acrobat reached for him.... 3, 2, their finger closed around each other's and the escapologist held his wife by the wrist. They were 50 metres in the air, the only thing supporting their combined weight was the cage.'
-
Eli grinned knowing that the acrobat was ok, listening eagerly to what would happen next.
-
'But... the acrobat's wrist slid out of the grip of the escapologist's hand. He couldn't hold her up much longer. The escapologist blew out the flame on the dynamite string and looked his wife in the eye and told her, "I love you." And then she fell.'
-
“She’s alive though, right? She has to be alive- RIGHT?!”
-
(ELI JEEZ CALM DOWN
"No, she died a horrible, messy death")
'She fell down, down, down, the whole 50 metres. And she... she... hmm...' -
“She WHAT?!” Eli demanded. “She got saved by one of the staff throwing a net or something!”
-
'Hmm...' Callum said thoughtfully. 'Well, she broke every bone in her body, except the ones at the end of her fingers. She lived long enough to give birth to her daughter, and at the hospital bed, the escapologist cradled his daughter in his arms. The acrobat told him, "Take care of our baby girl. She's all we ever wanted." And then she.... Died.'
-
Eli stared at Callum for a bit, too shocked to say anything.
“DEAD?! Jesus Christ this took a turn!”
