Shoot to kill.....

story by: Frank Hornby .
Written on Oct 02, 2018

"The ruthless sniper fixed his innocent victim in his sights, 
"I can't miss from this distance he thought...just one shot, that's all I need,"
He'd been planning this murder for months,
now that his chance had come, he wasn't going to waste it....Thud! 
the arrow hit its unsuspecting target, then silently the evil sparrow 
made its sneaky escape, as poor Cock Robin lay dead in the hedgerow."
