Well, it appeared that the hot-tub had broken at some point in the week and nobody had noticed except for Mayumi who decided that night-time would be the best time to fix the thing as well as being fatigued. Needless to say, in her narcissism and her desire to do everything herself because she was the best and everybody else were idiots, she decided that she would fix it herself. That proved to be a big mistake.
As she settled into start messing around with the electricals it just so happened that stagnant hot-tub water slopped into the internals...and sent a massive dose of electricity coursing through her body which stood her up in mid-air jerking spasmodically. Mayumi in her mind saw splashes of light and dark that obscured her vision while she jerked uncontrollably. (this, kids, is why you don't play with water near electrical outlets - your friendly neighbourhood public service announcement).
When the electrical pulses quit coursing through her, she ended up in a heap on the ground still twitching while little bits of electrical charge played havoc with her internal organs. And because she had so narcissistically thought she was a electrical handyman who didn't need to worry about things like this, there was no one to call emergency; everyone was asleep.
Mayumi lay there, her brain synapses fried and with no other response; a limp meat-bag on the ground. No one would know how she met her end, other than the Creator who smiled most sadistically. Such evil deserved to be extinguished.
In fact the course of energy that flowed through her was so great and the spastic reflexes of being jolted by several thousand volts of electricity was so violent that she ended up cracking her head through the base of the hot-tub.
Grim sighed as he appeared, "Sims..." he intoned sonorously, "They never learn to not play with electricity. Another one..." He looked up at the sky for a long moment. "I hope you're satisfied. Keeping me in work, are you?"
The Creator just nodded.
"Very well, then I'll reap her soul..."
Grim looked down at the prone and unmoving body of Mayumi Chikamori and thought grimly (haha...a pun) at the prospect of having such an evil presence in the Underworld. She was going to make Purgatory miserable for everyone there, even if they were evil or mean-spirited themselves...but unfortunately there was only two places in the afterlife. Paradise or H*ll and well, she was to evil to go to Paradise so the latter was the only place that would even think of accepting her. So H*ll it was. Hey, no-one could blame him, he was just taking orders.
Mayumi let out an unearthly cackle as she realized just what had happened and the opportunity that presented itself to her. The afterlife just opened up. Here she could really only make seven lives miserable while in the afterlife there were MILLIONS. She let out a evil burst of laughter that made even Grim cringe. And when she shook his hand, Grim had a really bad feeling about this.
The only person who grieved when they woke up to find a headstone in the place of Mayumi was Yasunobu and that was only for appearances. Pretty much everyone rejoiced at Mayumi's demise. Haruo was so relieved, he didn't even bother to attend the laying-to-rest of his hated mother who had always demeaned, ridiculed and persecuted him. His view was that she should be put to her final rest alone...and uncared for just as she had created the animosity that pervailed throughout her life alienating those around her. The rest were only there for Yasunobu.
And Fiona stepped in to say her condolences as well as to let Yasunobu know that she was always there to take care of his "broken heart" Yay, Fiona, what a gal, but man is that ever gonna mess with Haruo and River's heads.
