Flight Risk

💫 Sophia 💫

*NOT RELATED TO THE PROMPT* Betrayal. Anger. Fear. This is what I felt when my mother brought the heavy leather belt down on my back. Emma Elliot. She considers herself a strong woman. She always reminds me how she raised me all by herself while my dad was off working. Well, I wouldn’t really consider it “raising” since I was the one who was taking care of her most of the time. My father rarely held a job for more than 6 months. He would pick up odd jobs here and there, anything he could find to keep food on the table. My mother had...

STELLA BROWN

💫 Sophia 💫

*NOT RELATED TO THE PROMPT* Author's note: Hey everyone! It's been a while since I've posted, but I hope you enjoy this! I worked on this story with the outline/ idea of humans evolving to have organs that help them feel emotions and 'sense' their way through life. They kept evolving to having one eye and fangs as well as the ability to survive without water. This story will take you through the struggles and suffering that my character Stella Brown will endure trying to survive this obscene world. Let me know of any changes or things you en...

Special Silence

💫 Sophia 💫

January 20th, 11:11 am Her. I watched as she walked in the coffee shop, gorgeous long blonde hair that fell perfectly into ringlets that clung tight to her head. She stared at the ground, and I could tell she was reluctant to be here. I watched as her brother (I think) tapped her shoulder and asked her a question. Her lips curled into a smile and it was contagious. I found myself smiling at her, but just to myself. I kept watching as she went and ordered. She looked like an angel, her pale skin, her hair, and her eyes were perfect. They were...

Butter

💫 Sophia 💫

Author's Note: *Not related to the prompt* Hey, everyone! I wrote a short story that is about a paragraph long revolving around a "Butter" prompt. And in honor of Halloween, I made it a horror. My goal was to challenge myself and limit the number of words I wrote. I am quite proud of this. Enjoy! :) (Feedback would be appreciated.) Butter As I laid the butter on the table, my heart began to race, thumping faster and faster, leaping into my throat. My eyes wandered to where my victim was sitting, she was quiet, reading by the light of the r...

Author's Note: *NOT RELATED TO THE PROMPT* Hey everyone, this is a story that I have been working on for a while, and I have been developing these characters for years. I am very proud of how it's coming along, I hope you enjoy it! :) *Feedback would be appreciated if anyone would leave some.* Underground Tunnels A Ghost Story Prologue Once a pocket watch was built, but, alas, this was no ordinary pocket watch. From the outside, it may seem ordinary, but in reality, it's the farthest thing from it. Whoever finds the watch and ...

The Last Day

💫 Sophia 💫

Authors Note: *NOT RELATED TO THE PROMPT*Hey everyone, I meant to post this last week, but got too busy to do so. Warning there is some strong language in the following story. Anyways, Enjoy!! :)The Last Day. Hour 68It has been 68 hours since I last saw the sun. 68 hours of pure isolation, canned beef, and fearing the sun may never return. 68 hours ago I was happily on a picnic with the girl of my dreams, laughing, eating, and drinking. The last I remember is the horror on her face as the world went black. Eliza! She screamed. That scre...

Deceit (Part 2)

💫 Sophia 💫

*NOT RELATED TO THE PROMPT*Deceit (Part 2)(Read part 1 first)I noticed they left my flute as they were in such a rush. I scooped up the flute and felt the weight of it in my palm. The smooth brass felt amazing against my bruised and beaten skin. I continued to explore the room I was in. I walked around the walls; all cement, the huge metal door, and a small child-like chair. Something brushed my hand and my head shot down. The corpse was no longer where it used to be. Terrified, I quickly glanced around the room. I felt my face reddening and...

Utterly Shocked Part 2

💫 Sophia 💫

✸✸✸ As they argued back and forth whether I was worthy of hearing the truth I started planning. I knew this city quite well and did know the safe combination. Wait. What was it they’d said about money? “Others would have left him outside after they got the money." What money? If I was rich all this time, why have I been treated like garbage? Ow. Something skimmed the top of my head and landed with a bang. That got them to shut up. I glanced up at their faces and realized how scared they were. “Hey, Cole, get in ...

Day 8

💫 Sophia 💫

Submitted to Contest #77

---------------- Day 1 ---------------- “Ahh, I can finally relax.” I thought to myself. After a long hard year of college, it was finally summer break. The pool reeked of sunscreen, chlorine, and cheap hot dogs, but I didn’t care. Today was too perfect. “Hey.” I awoke to the bright sun and this gorgeous girl standing over me. “Hey,” I replied. My voice was husky. She smiled. “ To whom do I owe the pleasure of meeting?” “Eleanor.” She held out her hand. I accepted. “Cory.” I noticed she had a little girl with her. Did she look scared? I crou...

Snow Storm

💫 Sophia 💫

Submitted to Contest #77

Doors locked. Check. Windows shut. Check. It is midnight and everyone has officially left the building. I have been waiting since I have arrived at Sounds.Inc to explore the rooms, locked away from prying eyes. I have been counting down the days until the perfect snowstorm will strike. I am officially trapped at my office as one would say. But, rather, I am not trapped. I choose to stay there. ----------------- “Agent Covington, do you copy? I repeat, agent Covington do you copy?” My walkie-talkie screamed from across the room. Blurry...

Leaves on a Tree

💫 Sophia 💫

Submitted to Contest #63

“By the time I stepped outside, the leaves were on fire.” Burning buildings, children's screams and smoke filled my head. I saw terrible things and all I could do was stare, I was frozen. Paralyzed even, then everything went black. I awoke to the sound of cries and realized I was strapped to a table. “What happened?” “Where am I?” As these thoughts rushed through my head I tried remembering what happened and why I was here, but couldn't. I saw someone wander past my room, looking just as confused as I. They wandered in and asked if I knew wh...
