Awake

So remember that writing prompt I said I was going to write a story about? Well, I'm starting it soon, so here is the description.

     Hundreds of years into the future. And no one is awake.
     Kyri has always led a normal life in Shoquer. Up until the day when she wakes up alone. The entire world is fast asleep. And it is up to her and four others to save them.

So, yeah, it's short. I know. But I want it to be mysterious. Anyway, as you can tell from the post title, I am going to call it Awake. This will probably take up most of the blog for now...but I will definitely keep the Weekly Prompt, and (hopefully) how to write a good story. Hope you all enjoy and I will get writing soon.

Weekly Writing Prompt

Today's Prompt: You wake up one morning and find everyone in the house asleep. Not just the house, the whole world. You go online and find a blog post "Anyone else awake?". There are three comments.

     My vision was blurry as I blinked my eyes open. The sun shone through the curtains, blinding me like it always did. But unlike every day, something was wrong. The birds were missing. Every day I woke up to the sun in my face and birds chirping. It was silent. Apparently, I was the first one awake. What time was it anyway? I leaned over, but in only added to my confusion. The clock read 12:00. Everyone in the house was usually awake by 7:00. I finally got myself out of bed and wandered towards the stairs. As I passed my sister's room, I heard no snoring but when I looked in she was sound asleep. Strange. The same situation in my parent's room as well. I found my cats laying on the ground asleep as well. Suddenly it hit me, they were in some sort of comma. Panic stricken, I ran outside and began knocking on doors. Not a soul was awake. I think I had some sort of mental breakdown, but everything was such a blur that I don't really remember. I found myself crying on the floor of the kitchen. I wiped my eyes and ran back up to my room. I flicked the light switch as I entered, but the lights stayed dim. Of course, The power must be out. I sat down, flipped open my laptop, and began to search for anything. I didn't know what I was looking for, but I found something. It was a blog post titled, "Anyone else awake?". I clicked on it. There were three comments.

So, I love this prompt so much that I am going to turn it into a story with chapters and all. Also, I will be adding some art soon, since I don't really have any yet.

Weekly Writing Prompt

Today's Prompt: I can't imagine life without...

Hope
we'd have nothing to live for without it
we'd have no purpose
we'd give up when thing are hard
we'd have no reason to keep living
but we have something to live for
and we have a purpose
we keep trying when things are hard
we have a reason to keep living
we have Hope

Burn

A spark ignites
red and gold glide down streets
they bring destruction
they bring fear
they bring sadness
a tear drips down my face
as I watch it burn.
