The same beginning and end
I challenge you to write a paragraph or a few, that can be used for the start and end of the story. Below all of it please leave a description of Some suggestions: - In the beginning, make it mean something different that what it will mean in the end. - Create a flash-forward to the end- then describe briefly a story line what goes along with it. - Make it emotional and or poetic sounding. -It can be any thing from a breakup, a life loss, a happy emotion, a dystopian storyline, ect, get creative! *If you would like for me to create a short story of your idea and or would allow me to please let me know ... @ me in the comments and tell me!!!* ALSO PLEASE LEAVE A BACKSTORY/ DESCRIPTION SO WE KNOW HOW TO INTERPRET YOUR STORY (this is to give me ideas to help a piece of writing I am working on.)

The beginning of the end or just a new beginning?

It was the beginning of the end... or perhaps it was just a new beginning. When our eyes met, aqua blue to earth brown, a budding relationship had planted itself in my mind; as the saying goes: a stranger is just a friend you haven’t met yet. After he opened his mouth, however, I knew this boy was going to be the end of me. In fact, I knew it was he who had started it all along. As the phrase goes “one door closed another opens”, I rest my case only to open another: “What was to come?”

As a beginning paragraph:

The assignment undertaken was urgent, but it’s the duty of a hero to save a child in danger. As our eyes met, I knew I needed to save him. Not just from enemy attack, but on a deeper level. He appeared only half my age but his eyes were dim and his body was emaciated. As he turned toward me his shark eyes glint. He had me figured out without us exchanging any words. As my steadfast gaze took in his intimidating countenance, I remembered my father’s saying: Every enemy deserves respectful resentment.

As a concluding paragraph:

In his eyes I saw him begin to fade away. As his life began to drain out from his wound he began to shiver, his fiery passion had long been extinguished. He tried hard to hide it behind one of his witticisms but he could only grimace. He was too young for what he was going through, but at that moment he appeared so old. I tried to comfort him but he stared back at me in disbelief. I have been through worse pain before, he reassured me, I know I’ll be okay-- I actually feel the pain fading away. And with his pain, he faded away.
