Prodigy
By Scott L Vannatter – 100 words
He had walked so very far to get here. Now, as he looked at the pretty houses and close quarters, he grew listless. Only the overcast brought a smile to his eyes. His eyes, those eyes with the deep green glitter, shining like a small star, they defined him. He brought his hand up, holding the bag with the animal sacrifice within. The clouds began to move in tight circles and the darkness grew a tiny bit more. His smile grew, too. Traveled so far, sacrificed so very much, now, he was here. This was Salem, after all. He laughed.

Dear Scott, Good story – and CREEPY too. Salem has a lot going for it – not only tourists, but mysterious visitors too! Great job! Nan 🙂

Cool and chilling. He reminds me in a way of Stephen King’s antagonist Andre Linoge from Storm of the Century.
