50 word story

Trying really hard to catch her breath, she slumped against the wall. Cold sweat trickled down her pale cheeks. “Please..” her words choked a whisper. Fear nibbled at her making her kness wobble as the sound of his footsteps grew louder by the second. Finally, she falls down, front first.

“Oh my god!!!!!!” mary screeched. She was now grinning for ear to ear. She stared hard at the numbers written on the piece of paper. Screaming and hopping around the house as though she was a mad savage, she lifts up the paper, waved it and screamed, ” I am rich!!!!!!!”

She was mesmerized by the brown leaves being flung relentlessly against the cold hard stone. Tears rolled down her cheeks as she tried to unravel the knot of anger from within. Suddenly, she roared ” BUT YOU PROMISED ME!!!’ Raising her clenched fist, she punched hard at her best friend’s tombstone.

He was hiding behind the tree waiting for the chance to strike. After what seemed like an eternity, his target moves towards his direction bringing them close. “HAHAHA” Jospeh chuckles menacingly. Following that, he leaped forward into his direction and pounced on him.

The game of “tag” was finally over.

A drop of cold sweat was hanging at the tip of his nose. One minute left on the clock. The plier held on his hand trembled so much that it seemed to be alive. “Snap… BOOOM!!! ” the entire building went down with the wire. It was not the red one.
