Every week, Rochelle adds another donated photo so we can apply our writing creativity and come up with a short story of around 100 words.
This story is part of a saga involving a vampire, Raynard, and his prey, Saskia.
You can read the full story here on my page (the side of Raynard) or here on Jules’ page (the side of Saskia)
Raynard sat at the table and looked down at the corpse beside him, having just satiated his thirst. He picked up the chopsticks and his mind flew backwards. Sitting around the dinner table, he pretended to eat so he did not look out-of-place with the other guests. The aura coming off the woman seated across from him felt all too familiar. It suddenly struck him and he stood fast. The girl squealed and ran, throwing a chair in front of him causing him to stumble and he tipped over the balcony railing.
That was the first moment he laid eyes on Saskia.
Dear Al, I have read several of your stories with Raynard – I’m going to yell “Run Saskia, Run! Good story and I think she has a brilliant strategy to keep him at bay! Fun, interesting, delightful! Thanks, Nan π
Thanks Nan. With this week’s prompt, you may be yelling again lol
This really makes me want to investigate your other stories on these characters.
There is a lot to read through which is all at the top. Some mine – Raynard / Tess and some from Jules – Saskia / Good guys
Al, Ah, a flash back to the beginning. Trouble for Saskia right from the start. Well written. π —Susan
Dear Al,
Does this mean he blames Saskia for his own clumsiness? Just like a man. π Even an immortal one.
Shalom,
Rochelle
Haha no. He blames for being her π
Uh… I have been playing Rome Total War lately…
I was thinking that this morning, wondering how you were doing with it
I got Britain barbarians in the holy land and beyond… and you know we never would have killed Jesus… so no religion based on killing for peace… which is funny in light of the post I just did.
HAHAHA
oh yeah…
I’m with Alejandro…I don’t want Saskia to be caught either. Run Saskia, run!!! π
This was a different view from the very first episode I wrote, my very first attempt at flash fiction.
I almost donβt want Raynard to catch Saskia! I guess that means the series will end. Or, will it?
It’s been going on for over a year so far and there are still avenues that need dealing with. Like what happened with Tess and the Shaman? π
