DRABBLE STORY ARC #2: SEEK AND AVENGE

Bear-Faced Cheek

A plucky chapter of a ‘choose your own’ story, drabble edition!

This is a continuation of The Burned Village, a ‘choose your own’ fiction story, “drabble edition”. Head back to the previous instalment, ‘Forest Trails, Again’, ‘The Hare, the Bear and the Goblins’, or ‘Trying to Get Your Bearings’. Find out how to join the writing by clicking here.

Your clenched fist hits your palm. How dare this bear interfere with your quest? It has some cheek.

You’ve had enough.

You walk closer, snarling to yourself and drawing your axe. The bear’s not looking, and you feel that if you slam your weapon down onto its skull, life will get a lot simpler!

But the bear twists towards you, snorts, rears up.

Your eyes widen. You didn’t realise it was that big.

You start to step back, but it’s too late. Its paws land on your shoulders, and as it begins to snack on your face, you realise it’s…

The End.

Oops! If you now regret this move, you can always head back to the previous story (see links above).
