Negotiations to overthrow the Queen had lasted for quite some time. Tonight they were going to strike, when she lay her head on her pillow to rest from a long evening of spreading fear. They climbed up the silken sheets with their sharp claws, scrambling to reach the edge of the mattress. They watched the slow rising of her chest. Yes-s-s… It was time…
Two Fearlings clambered on either side of the bed, crawling over to her neck. One jumped down from the headboard, its hand clamping down on her forehead to immobilize her. Deep, red scratches were made into her neck, marking the spot, then they scrabbled to restrain her arms. They could hear the tinkling of metal across the stone floor, nearing closer and closer to the end of the bed. A sharp, curved blade appeared over the footboard, and the final Fearling climbed up the wooden staff attached to the blade.
The three Fearlings tittered as they watched their comrade drag the weapon across the bed, louder and louder as it came nearer. The Fearling at the center hollered as its accomplice raised their Master's scythe above its head, waking the Queen with a start. Their hollowed eyes grew with excitement. They smiled fiendishly at her, leaning close to her ears to whisper the final words she would ever hear.

Author's Note: Based on the Disney Villain-Based Sentence Starters Tumblr post by reginathequeenofmean, "Off with her head!" Writing began on 10 August 2014 and completed on 13 August 2014. I'm taking on this collection of thirty-five stories as a challenge to motivate me to finish writing past projects. Special thanks to warriroprincesscupcake, who shared the meme on her RP blog, which in turn inspired me to try this experiment.
