100 words of fiction. Not 99, not 101, not 847. One hundred words precisely. On choosing the winner, I couldn't care less about popularity and likes. I care about the storytelling. With a good side dish of solid grammar and following the rules of sticking to a hundred words.
The Flame of Rage
A surge of hot electricity rose within his bosom. His fingers tingled with fury. The flame seethed in his veins through his arms. It crawled up his spine and into his eyes. Cool down, boy, he said. He looked down on his hand. It was glowing. Sparks of flame flickered from the tips of his fingers. He looked back at the boy kneeling at the whipping pole. Rage filled his eyes. He shut them tight. Concentrate. He felt the fire collect in the center of his bosom. His heart pounded. Steadily. More steadily. He opened his eyes. And released it.
