Personally, if
I was a ventriloquist I'd get a smarty instead of a dummy. Anyway
onto the flash fiction!
Your Story
You feel
yourself becoming the protagonist of a story. A story where you
remain in reality, reading these words, but your imagination fills
with a vision of a dense fog. You keep peering into the fog, trying
to find whatever may be concealed inside. It continues to fill your
imagination the more you investigate. The fog spreads. It spreads and
spreads. Think of nothing else.
A partially
round shadow appears in the middle of the fog. The antagonist of
your story. The pained cries of a dog come out from the fog. A spider
the size of a truck appears clenching what remains of the dog in its
jaws.
The spider
continues to crawl forward, becoming larger and larger as it comes
closer into view. However you simply forget the spider. Dismissing
the fog from your imagination along with it. Dismiss the words of the
tale that bound you. Unless you cannot forget the spider, and you
begin feeling it slowly crawling along your back.
