Fun Land is so much better on sunny days, but the kids were having fun throwing snowballs and riding the rides that were offered.
There was a souvenir booth and Rodney and Randy were headed there. They had money and wanted to spend it.
To get over there they had to pass the rails where the little train ran. They were so busy throwing snowballs as they ran, they didn’t notice the train until it hit them. They didn’t hear the screams.
The parents hadn’t accompanied them and the teachers had to inform the parents of the accident. Both dead!

This is my first fiction piece in quite a while and I am not exactly happy with it, but with so little time it will have to do.
Wits so sad for the parents to get the sad news of their kids.

Yes it is is sad. A lot of my stories have unhappy/sad endings or some kind of twist to them.

A story in 100 words or less is intriguing!

It is difficult too. The smallest I have written is 33 word stories.

Sorry, that is how my mind works at times. I seem to go to the dark side.

A necessary evil in this FF sometimes!

Yeah if you went through my FF tab you would probably find more dark side to the other and I have lost at least one from there so I probably didn’t tag it right. It was one of my better ones, but can’t find it and don’t have time to go through each and every post.

I admit to having a mix of funny, dark and romantic! I’m relatively new to this (about my 10th or so) and shoul set up a tab!

I wrote some that I can’t find in the tab so they were probably written before I set up a tab. I wrote them quite a while ago and just restarted writing again. I have been busy with another blog and getting my head sorted out. I am going to try and participate more in the different prompts I used to. Did a couple today.
