The golden yellow sun rose just above the mountains, greedily spreading its light in the sky as Micah pedaled his bicycle on the road ahead of him. His mother had warned him to watch out for cars, like she did every morning, and like every morning he went out for a ride, he ignored her warning.
But today was different. As Micah steadily climbed a hill in the road, he heard a revving truck engine behind him. He desperately swiveled his bike handles and crashed into a nearby bush.
He shakily got back on his bike and headed back home.
Angelina –
I love how you plopped us right in the middle of a high-intensity scene. This feels like it could have been pulled from the script of “Stranger Things.” The character would avoid calamity. We’d all exhale a collective sigh of relief. A moment later, the demogorgon would attack. 🙂 I’m so glad you’re thinking about scriptwriting as a future career. Keep on writing! 🙂

Hi Angelina!
Your 100 word story had me on the edge of my seat! I love how from the very beginning it feels like something scary is going to happen. This story was so descriptive I felt like I was watching a movie of it!
