Prompt Tuesday #38

Every Tuesday I post a writing prompt and my response. It gives me a chance to exercise my writing muscles outside of my WIP, and hopefully inspire you to write. So enjoy my flash fiction piece and post your own in the comments!

One thing wrapped around another

Response


The vine bit into Carsa's arm as it slowly tightened its hold. She looked down at the black emptiness below her. Then her eyes turned back to the bloodthirsty face watching her from the cliff above.

Resolved, Carsa reached into her boot and pulled out the slender dagger she kept hidden there. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Then with one swift movement Carsa cut through the vine - severing her connection with the world above.

She fell into the darkness.
