STORY STARTER
Write a suspenseful scene, in a story of any genre.
You are writing a single scene, so you do not need to provide backstory or outcome, but your characters and plot should still make sense. Consider the elements of suspense, like pace, atmosphere, motivations, and stakes.
Tomas
I rushed after Tomas, yelling at him.
“Stop!” I shouted again.
“Shush, Xander,” he hissed, “it might hear you!”
“It will kill us,” I whispered, “is it really this important?” I didn’t even know what it was! Why did I agree again?
“Yes,” he said, “now shut up.”
I grumbled and watched him dash forward, swinging his axe in the air. Why was I so stupid? I ran after him.
