A Pediatric Knockout Performance
As Submitted To The Microfiction Magic Challenge
Peering in a delusional state past shining lights, the audience wearing white coats took their seats anticipating an amazing lecture experience when the operating room surgical theater curtain raised. A female voice then requests, “count back from ten,”
“I am so sedated,” the youngster stated.
“I will never tell, my lips are sealed,” the stranger gained trust as the pre-adolescent went back to sleep never reaching number eight.
Years have passed since that blood and real cutting-edge props production, where many in the city nicknamed Gotham still ask, “are the kids all right?’.

The Devil's Triangle
The sails ruffled in the breeze as we cruised along. The Sea Breeze was a mid-size catamaran that sailed out of Royal Naval Dockyard in Bermuda. We had booked this trip weeks in advance and were now looking at our Captain, Spike and two boat hands. Paddy and Wilson seemed like nice guys, joking around with the passengers and telling us some stories about Bermuda that only locals would know. Their island accents sounded almost British but they were pleasant to listen to.
