DRABBLE STORY ARC #2: SEEK AND AVENGE

A Destiny Delayed

Part of a ‘choose your own’ story — drabble edition.

**The only thing between you and death is her** — AI image using Lexica

This is a ‘choose your own’ fiction story, “drabble edition”. You can check out Chapter 1 of this story: The Burned Village. Find out how to contribute to the ongoing story here, or check the previous chapter: ‘A Dance With Devastation’, by J.C. Lovero.

A glowing scythe materializes close to your face. It swings upward, ready to strike.

You’re frozen in place, unable to take a single step. You close your eyes and inhale a deep breath, savoring the stillness before…

“It appears you have another chance.”

“I don’t understand.”

She frowns. “There’s an asterisk by your name…”

The silence is almost palpable, like the thrum of your heartbeat in your chest. “Can I see my family?” Your vision blurs as tears fill your eyes.

The shimmering blade finds its way to your neck.

She smirks. “Not necessarily.”

“Okay… so what happens now?”
