55 Word Short Stories

The Girl

We stared into each others moon shaped eyes and examined one another. She had espresso coloured eyes hidden behind glasses, and endless, luscious hair. She mimicked my every move; simultaneously and flawlessly. Dressed in nothing other than the latest designer clothes, she looked me up and down, and flashed a smile.

“Damn, I look good.”

Evil Children

They formed into their demonic praying circle in an organized fashion, and spun the blinded volunteer around. The children dispersed and watched their leader swing at the victim with a bat constantly missing. They screamed as he finally started to beat him senselessly.

Their eyes bulged at the shower of candy falling from the piñata.

Endless Day, Twisty Turning

Endless Day

Clutching onto anything for dear life. Increasing terror with every second. Despite my attempts to stay in place, my body is thrown about. My screams of distress are ignored as my captors grin widens. With no destination in sight, I am condemned to this seemingly endless nightmare.

“Dad! Could you please not drive like that?”

Twisty Turning

                A vast land of nothingness, my only companion in this post-apocalyptic world. I have been to the coldest reaches of the arctic, and the hottest villages of the equator. As I entered what once was someone’s home, it occurred to me: I am the last human on earth.

There was a knock on the door.

What to do...what to do...
