The Décès Necklace

By John stinnett

this was the proudest month of 25 year old Bethany Taylor's, hell even anyone close to hers life. It was the month in which she would finally get her Doctorate her life she wanted to be a Physician so She could help mentally ill people because her own brother Billy was born with the sex disorder Downs Syndrome. On the week before she graduated from B.M Geffries university she decided she deserved a present for herself. She could not get a present from her parents because her parents were broke from taking care of her brother, her friends could not get her anything because they had probably spent there money on some worthless crap. So she decided she would buy herself a present.

she took a bus out of the university which resided in Orlando, Florida, and went to look at a Pawn Shop called "Another Mans Trash Is another Mans Treasure." Long Title she thought. She opened the door causing the bell over the door to chime, she wandered around the shop until she came to the old jewelry area, there she was mesmerized by the most beautiful necklace she had seen in her entire stared at it for a few seconds until she finally realized that she had to have it. She walked over to the old shop clerk, he was an old man bald appeared to be in his Mid-Sixties. He wore a small name tag that said Boris Zucki. Boris looked at Beth and said "Welcome to AMTIAMT, we call it that for short because it can get pretty annoying saying the whole shops name i Don't know what got into the founders mind when he found this shop." "Name fits a pawn shop perfectly, anyways, there is a necklace in the jewelry area that i absolutely have to have." "Okay." Boris said. He reached into a cabinet in his desk and took out some keys. She led him into the jewelry part and pointed to the necklace that lay inside the glass casing. Suddenly Boris Jerked back and screamed "Oh fuck no!" "Why the hell not." Beth screamed back. Boris calmed down and said "Every single person who has ever bought that necklace wound up having it returned because it was suspected to have caused the previous owner to have gone insane." Even if the necklace did cause the owners to go insane she did not care she needed it. "Why the fuck would i believe that!" She said. "It doesn't matter i can't sell you the goddamn necklace!" he said with a tone of annoyance in his voice. "Fine!" She said. She bought a couple bottles of Dr. pepper and left.

That night when she was trying to sleep in her dorm room of the university, she was kept awake by thoughts of that beautiful necklace. Her mind was hammered by thoughts of it. Then she couldn't take it any longer and left the room, she was going to get that necklace even if it meant stealing it. She sneaked out of the campus of B.M Geffries and walked to her car, she punched the code on her cars door then opened it. She drove her car towards AMTIAMT and looked inside she saw that no ones there so she took a hammer and smashed the glass completely open. Then suddenly an alarm had started to blare extensively scaring the shit out of her. She ran quickly into the store and smashed the jewelry case open, she reached her hands out for the necklace and felt a strange warmth from the necklace. She loved the feeling, then she heard the distant sound of police sirens, she quickly grabbed the necklace and ran the hell away. She arrived back at campus twenty minutes later breathing heavily, when she arrived at her dorm room she began to get horrified, she realized what she had done over a mere piece of jewelry.

She placed her new illegally received piece of jewelry on top of a box that sat on top of a table on her dorm room where her and her roommate Jessica's usually did their homework. She remained awake in her bed for four straight hours staring straight up at the ceiling. "Oh my fucking god what have i done?, The police could come knocking at my door anytime!, All over a stupid mother fucking necklace!!" She began to feel nauseous and she ran to the restroom where she blew chunks in the toilet. A couple minutes of shaking and crying in the restroom she finally returned to her dorm room where Jessica remained sound asleep. She went to the box where she kept her precious necklace and opened it she expected to see the fucking necklace which had a beautiful red ruby colored diamond. she gasped when she saw that the necklace had completely vanished. She heard a whoop whoop whoop sort of sound in the lounge which was only in the next room. She nervously walked into the lounge nervously and saw what looked like a ruby red light emitting. When she walked in the lounge her scream could be heard for miles.

The next morning there was police tape circling all over AMTIAT. Apparently when Boris Zucki walked into the store, his facial expression was absolutely horror stricken. He looked at where there were a bunch of medical personnel circled around a single area around where Bethany had stolen the necklace. He took a quick glance at what the medical personnel were staring at Boris looked at there faces and saw expression of absolute bewilderment, then he looked down and he saw what shocked them so damn much. There was Beth her hair had turned completely white she was twitching intensely screaming in short bursts "ITSFREEFROMTHEDECESNECKLACEISFREEANDISCOMINGFORUSALL!"
