How come when you need something the most- that's the time when you have to fight the hardest to receive it?


As I'm sitting here, in this box-shaped room, staring at my prey three feet away from me, I am anxious. This child, an innocent child, will die. She is nothing to me, nothing at all. When she wakes, only then will she notice my presence. She is sleeping calmly, probably dreaming sweet childish fantasies of blue skies and purple unicorns flying to see a magical princess. Little does she know that in a few short hours her rosey red complexion will fade away to meet a dull white color. Little does she know that the curls that surround her face will fade and cover a life-less dull face. Little does she know of her radiant blue eyes fading with the sunset. Unlike the sun, her eyes will never surface again.

~Little does she know of the monster I am~

I could see why your teacher was haha ;)

I really liked it though, especially the comparison of the child's innocence and what will become of her despite it. Good job!

Haha love it! Adding the repetition of,  "Little does she know..." really gave that ominous feeling of the sly mind of the killer.

Oh, and I would suggest that you didn't use "dull" twice in a passage of this length, otherwise perfect!

Amazing description, very intriguing! It would make a great story!

By the way, can you read my story, The Whisperer, rate, and critisize? I'd appreciate it.

Ha, I laughed when I read what you said about the teacher. The piece is very descriptive and interesting. It makes you kind of afraid but wanting more simultaneously. Great job!
