Hello! It's me, Gen. I'm trying something out, if it works and it's fun, I'll keep going. My goal is to write a super short story each 1-2 weeks with a 10-20 minute time limit. I will list my prompt/starter below and I'll write non stop. A FREE WRITE!

Prompt: "What have you done?" the headmaster bellowed, all eyes now turned to me as he stood over the lifeless body on playground.

"What have you done?" the headmaster bellowed, all eyes now turned to me as he stood over the lifeless body on playground. I swear it wasn't me. If anything, this fat dude framed me in front of my whole...well...school. The corpse lying in front of me was Jane McDuff. She was an athlete, big time. If anything, I bet she was gonna make it to the Olympics for being a world-class swimmer. That's...beside the point. What's happened here is a misunderstanding. I'm being framed.
"Hey sir Johnnydanedir, it wasn't me." I protested. (yup, that is his name. Sir Jentyred Johnnydanedir)
"Then how can you explain this treachery!?" He announced.
Right, I was trying to figure that part out right about now. I looked around my surroundings and saw a zip of light fly by my sight. No....it can't be. This wasn't the first time I've seen this 'flash'. The thing's been at it at me for months, I swear that he was probably responsible for all the mess-ups I've had this month.
I stuttered,"Look, I-I-I didn't kill her. I swear Sir. I don't have the guts to do such a thing, trust me, if anything, I think it's that guy behind you that committed the crime."
The headmaster fell for it, he spun around saw absolutely no one in front of him, turned back, and realized I was gone.
Maybe I bolted for the exits, maybe I should've stayed and figured this whole shenanigan out, but I knew one thing. Sir Johnnydanedir was not nice, and he wouldn't listen to anything but his 'evidence', which is usually just his gut. But I guess theres one thing to be said.
No matter what you do, you can't excape fate, karma, and destiny. Apparently, my destiny was to run, slip on Jane McDuff's blood, and land face-first on the pavement.
everything went dark.

ok, that sucked, but hey, first time's never easy. If y'all liked this, comment and maybe I'll go for another spin on the second short!
