FRIDAY FICTIONEERS - 1 June 2012 - THE CULDERA - My 100 Words - Sussan De Allura

The Culdera

     I came to and almost gagged at the smell of whiskey, burnt flesh, blood, and the sickeningly sweet smell of my best friend Sarah decomposing.
     The old woman came over, cleared her throat and spat a wad of phlegm in my face.
     “Clean your slutty self up and don't try to run, whore! There is nothing we like better that a little hunting, right Son?!”
     Suddenly the earth started to shake. The sound was deafening. I watched as half of the nearby mountain gave way and came to life. To me the most beautiful thing...
     “Thank you, God!”

  1. Wow! A complete nihilist horror story in 100 words. Very intense, Sussan, and hard to take, but very, very beautiful.

    1. Thanks Mik..It was a pretty long, detailed story. I had to endure the torture of cutting words, to paragraphs.

      Glad you liked it. It wasn't the story it started out to be, but then they rarely are. Part of the magic!!

      Best!

  5. Sussan you managed to pack a lot into a few words. Sight, sound and scent.
