Today I dilly-dallied, but only a
little! Anyway onto the flash fiction!
The Almighty Sandwich
Once there lived an almighty wizard
with incredible powers. Well, almighty in the sense of wizards, he
did eventually croak. And upon this great wizards croaking all his
powers(pretty much anything magical that can come to mind, making
fireballs, zombies, dragons, time travel, mind control etc.) were
bestowed upon a sandwich he was eating upon his death. In fact the
reason the sandwich got his powers is that it defeated him in battle:
because he choked on it.
The sandwich used magic to regenerate
from ¾ dead and eaten to its original full form. Magic gave it
sentience. It decided it wanted power over all the lands so that it
would never risk being eaten again as well as being able to ban
making of all sandwiches so that nothing would remind it of its
ordeal.
With the wizard's powers it easily did
this(the wizard was a pacifist so the land previously had nothing to
fear). The sandwich didn't care for running an actual government so
eventually advisers and officials took over and a normal government
took over besides the peculiar death penalty sandwich law. The people
knew of the sandwich but eventually he began to fade into obscurity.
The sandwich decided that he couldn't merely let a government pass
laws as he realized people began to ignore them. So he decided to use
his powers to observe the people and kill anyone making a sandwich or
eating one.
Soon he became a mythical creature and
sandwiches a forbidden food. The sandwich wouldn't even appear.
Sometimes people would make sandwiches out of dares out in the open
and be immediately struck by lighting in broad daylight. Over
hundreds of years the sandwich became an unknown in origin divine
source as time passed. Though most all religious agreed that the
sandwich was a forbidden food shape that what divine deity exists,
has decided should never take form without great punishment.
After a millennium the sandwich's
almighty magic moved on from it. The power grew detached over the
years and the sandwich grew moldy. The power found a new host in a
paper airplane....and the cycle of almighty power continued.
