Death-The Last Few Moments

For this contest, I want stories about death but I want the stories to be about a person who was setenced to death so the story has to be about that and I have another option for this contest. I want the person who is being put to death the main character or one of the main charactes at least.

Here is what I want for it:

1. Description of what's going on and why it is happening-I want to know why this person is being killed. Describe it for me. Make me feel like I'm there wittnessing it or something close to that.

2. The person's thoughts-What is going on in this person's head? What are they thinking? How do they feel? Do they want to want to die? How are they dealing with them being put to death? Do they think that it's right to be put to death even though they committed the most horrible crime?

3. Is the person gulity for their crime or are they not gulity? Tell me about this also in the story.

4. How is the person being put to death?

Option 2: For this one, I a story about someone who was supposed to be dead and viewed dead by people and doctors but they really aren't dead. So since no one except for the person knows that they aren't dead, they are going to have an autopsy done on them. This can either be written as them trying to make the doctor in charge of doing the autopsy realize that they aren't dead or that they go through with it. If they go through with the autopsy, tell me what happens to them? What are they feeling? I want to know their thoughts and feelings.

  2. The scent of decay, of the passing of the city, hangs in the air. I can smell the sweet scent clearly. The city is dying. Everyone knows it, but why do we stay here? The truth is, most of us don't. Most have moved out to live

    My story fits almost

    The protagonist's death is the crime, is this good enough? Let me know if it's a problem and I'll withdraw it.

      What I want is about someone as they are being put to death for a crime or something like that. It doesn't have to be death row. Almost kind of like how a person who was a witch or people thought were a witch were burned at the stake.
