blemish - 1.4.

Character List: 
The Artist | The Lady | The Commissioner | Henrietta | Louise | Firo

Firo panicked.  There were fourteen seconds left on the timer.  The beeping had sped up, keeping apace with his heartbeat.  "God, God.  Help me!"  Sweat carved through the grime caked on his face, falling to the ground.  Faster.

Six seconds.  A low humming came from the incinerator, shaking, there was no time.  No time.  His breath, faster.  The black splotches on the wall stared silently at him through the uproar.  "No.  No.  No, No!  Stop!!!"

The Time bent.

"Yes, my lord."

Louise stepped out of the air, the drop of blood having changed to two.  Two drops on the floor.  Two bloodlines mixed together.  Firo's eyes widened, still staring at the timer.  One second.  Even his breathing made no sound. The Time had stopped.

"What... did you...?"
"Stopped, my lord."
