Masshysteria Stories

Based off the following prompt: "You've been going to the same bar every night for the past five years. In fact, you're such a regular that when you enter, the other patrons yell your name and the bartender already has your drink waiting for you. But then, one Friday you arrive and no one seems to recognize you..." Author's Note: First and foremost, I wrote this for an assignment in my English101 class where we were given a writing prompt and had to create a story out of it. At the time I didn't pay much attention to the prompt, I just wanted my A, but still had fun with the assignment. However, I'm almost 100% certain that my professor took this prompt off of reddit from the subreddit r/writingprompts. So I'm not claiming this prompt is my original idea, but everything that ensues, has all come from my own head. Any similarities between any work, fiction or otherwise, are purely coincidental. Enjoy!

In a world where the line between right and wrong is almost impossible to see, a secret government program assigns assassins known as "the Blades." Each Blade is assigned a target, called a "Point," and they have exactly three days to eliminate them. If they fail, the consequences are brutal. Tasked with eliminating their target within a perilous three-day window, the Blades face the dire consequence of failure: either the Point is given the ultimate right to revenge, or the ruthless government steps in to execute the assassin for non-completion. With a thrill-inducing countdown ticking away, every mission becomes a high-stakes battle where only one person can survive. But not everything is as clear-cut as it seems. Some Blades start to question their orders. As the oppressive pressure mounts, ethical dilemmas and surprising connections unfold, forcing assassins to confront their own humanity. Loyalties fracture, secrets unravel. As the clock counts down, the Blades face impossible decisions. Should they blindly follow orders, or risk their own lives to do what's right? In a system designed to break them, they'll have to figure out where they stand before time runs out. In "The Fatal Assignment," A twisted game where survival is the only prize. Chosen from the forgotten corners of society - the desperate, the skilled, the expendable - they were given a target, a weapon, and a countdown clock. Failure meant death. Simple, brutal, and terrifyingly effective.
