Chapter 2: Quietly Swinging
When the votes were counted, General President Ludd’s two bodyguards- “Duke” and Jon Miller’s faces flushed white. They held up the results to the group. Their President was the one who was to die.
Smugly watching, Chairperson Chaunk whipped out his .45 and started to aim, but found his arm restrained by the ever-observant Doctor Spike of LU. “No.” He shook his head. “A professional should do the work.”
Chaunk’s eyes traveled down to the sparkling scalpel grapsed in Spike’s hand. Chaunk nodded and let him approach, smiling sadistically.
“How dare you!” General Ludd screamed, holding up his hands in self defense.
“Defend me, my bodyguards!”
Jon Miller and Duke looked at Spaced Cowboy who merely shrugged. “Killing you will relieve us of any possible wrongdoing in the public’s eye.” He commented.
General Ludd screamed out in anger. “But I am your LEADER!”
“Was.” The Chairperson shrugged again. “Skanky will assume your duties from now on. Isn’t that right?”
The Vice President nodded.
General Ludd died horribly as Doctor Spike’s scalpel sliced across his throat.
“I’ve been waiting a long time to do that.” The good doctor smiled when the deed was done, dropping the scalpel to the floor. “Bury it with him and his evil will be gone.” He walked off.
The bodyguards carried Ludd’s corpse to a corner, where they draped it with cloth, then they returned to their plotting with the Chairperson.

“The people will be pleased.”
“Indeed.”
“This voting was amazingly fortuitous.”
“I know.”
“But the real killer-”
“Should be no problem.”
“But why-”
“Ask me no more.”
****
Throughout the day, gjramsey and Dr. Spike worked on the power grid, trying to get it back on-line.
Duke o’York and Jon Miller watched over them leerily, hands nervously held on their weapon-holsters as they peered over the two’s shoulders.
As for SPAM, the speech-writer, Joncha, had gone to watch to assure Chaunk that LU and MOD weren’t conspiring against their group.
Eventually, power was restored. After gjramsey and Dr. Spike packed all the loose wires back into the container, they headed back to the other LU members.
*****
Zopperoni and the rest of SPAM, taking advantage of the fixed lighting, moved their base of operations to the basement where the power-cords were... while MOD stayed close to the thin-rope-pulley curtains and LU made their way up into the rafters.
*****
Later that day, Jonny was discovered dead, strung up in the rafters by what was either the ultra-thin rope of the curtains, excess electrical cable, or some sort of ultra-thin paper.
Commenting on the deaths, Campaign Manager Imran Siddiqui of SPAM commented on how fortuitous it was that no SPAM-party members had been assassinated as of yet.
Chairperson Chaunk smacked him on the side of his head and hissed. “What do you want to do- get us all killed!”
Siddiqui frowned and turned his mind to campaign matters.
Joncha turned a page on his black steno pad and started to write a speech about the incident, twisting the events toward his party’s favor. He found it hard to do, since none in his party had as of yet died, but deciding on something, he stated that the pattern led to a SPAM member being killed next and apologized to the rescuers that everyone had been saved by rescue crews before SPAM lost any of its members. Nevertheless Joncha noted that he looked toward a bright future where SPAM would reign victorious over the shadowy MOD party and the even more dangerous LU. Besides, who would ever trust a Lurker anyway. They were too quiet for their own good.

I was going to say that Ludd must be innocent, but we have two assassins now, don't we?
