Hi there,
A very enjoyable little piece here. Well-written and paced. Alas, it is not the medical professional's dilemma of who to save... how could they possibly know... maybe they'll be next.
Good stuff

Scary stuff--you convey his terror for sure! There is a condition called Locked-In Syndrome is which a person is alive and aware but unable to move or communicate--fortunately tests can prove that he's not brain dead. Cheers. LIZ

Comment from Diana Kane
This was absolutely awesome! I was sucked in right from the start. I was wondering what was happening, why, by whom? I had all the questions and I wanted to know the answers. This answer was way beyond what I would've thought would happen. Definitely thought you were a goner. Great job and good luck in the contest.

Comment from Tsukuyomi969
That was literally so much fun to read! I never saw the ending coming and it was hilarious. Haha a simple prank can have deadly consequences.
There was a period that should be a comma:
"...create this dead-looking state[.]" said three.
And this line: "An autopsy would put a damper on the day that I would not get over." This line was gold haha.
Great work here. Good luck in the contest. Cheers!

This is a very good writing entry for the Best Served Cold writing contest. I was gripped from the beginning to the end. It should do well in the contest. Good luck!

Comment from January L'Angelle
I like the way the story had a bob and weave feel to it. I never knew were you were going with it. That's some good writing. Right up until the end where the narrater claimed to be a murderer, I didn't expect that either. I enjoyed the story very much. The writing was excellent and the dialogue was perfect. Well done. -January L.
