“STOP!”
I don’t think. I just run.

Oh yes. I would certainly have made myself scarce! Nice tension building…
Thanks Tina!
Awesome segue! 😄 loved this as much as your fiction piece. Heheh

Thank you so much for stopping by and reading!
It’s like a mini movie!
Really enjoyed this – the title really adds to the story too. Not a word wasted
Thanks Jamie!
Yes, great choice on the title. I think that’s what helps this piece stand alone from the longer fiction work. It’s a nice companion, but it has its own legs.
Thank you, Cyn! I was worried it wouldn’t work on its own, but it was fun connecting the two!
Oooo…a bit of intrigue! I hope she got away.
Me too! Haha – Thanks for stopping by and reading!
Yes, I liked this and the fiction piece. Great drama created in such a few choice words.
Thank you Bobbie!
Nice job making this stand alone! The world-building hints are excellent.
Thank you Ruby!
Cyn stole my comment. 🙂 This is a nice strong piece with all the necessary elements of a story: characters, conflict and action. Really awesome.
Thanks Christine!
I was struggling with this week’s microstory prompt but you did it brilliantly. So much said in so few words.
Thank you so much!
