Challenge
Write a drabble (a story of exactly 100 words).
In Prose only, 100 words exactly, tell me a story. Fiction or fact, fantastical or realistic, just make it lean, mean, and punchy. No theme assigned this time, let's see what you can do without guidance. I'll choose the winner in June.
The Basement
By: Amaya Simpson
I woke up to the sound of a branch tapping my window. Tap. Tap. Tap. I try putting a
pillow over my head, but I can't go back to sleep. I sit up and look at my phone. ~3:33~March 3rd~I hear a door creaking in the distance. I follow the sound, and it was the basement door. Something in me tells me to go down. My heart? Racing. I'm terrified of the basement. I hear my name being called. It sounds close. -Stacy!! Stacy!! Stacy!!- I walk closer and something emerges from the shadows… AHHHHH!!!! NOOOOOO!!!!! STOPPPP!!!
