Future Tripping

"Surprise! Happy Birthday!"

All in attendance cried. As they jumped out of their hiding places enthusiastically spry.

The Soothsayer flinched, rolled his eyes, raised a clinched fist, said "You got me" with his last breath and died.

Drawing an uproarious laugh from all their to celebrate his birthday. Even those directly at his side.

A hush came over the crowd. As they awaited what the joker would do next. And slowly some came to the realization that they just witnessed his last act. While others yelled shit like "Real funny. Ass hat!"
