Come on, Hybrid, why are you good?! Besides, I wanted to make the first story this time! :-{
But man...this is SUCH a great take on the classic duel, two men duking it out with one bullet and the roll of fate's die, who falls and who is left standing when the dust clears...that's the definition of "terrifies me to death to think about", and you captured the random favor of the bullet very well here, a struggle between two men that ends before anyone can break a sweat, that alone sets them to sweating.
@Hybrid Kitten, Well, kind of busy being a part time teacher at the Mage's Council of Epic Advice for Kings and Nobles Everywhere (MCEAKNE, pronounced Mc. Acne), but I think I'll consider Beta Reading for Shakespeare, if you could put in a good word for me?
@Hybrid Kitten, @Maria3313, Thanks for your support, Maria, unfortunately it seems this cat still wishes to play dead. Hey, cat, I haz teh iced coffee.

Just killed a cat
Put iced coffee to it's lips, took a sip and now he's dead
And goodbye, everybody, I've got to go
Got to leave you all behind and face the truth
Momma! Oh, oh
I DON'T WANT TO DIE, BUT SOMETIMES WISH I NEVER BEEN BORN AT ALL~
