Five Sentence Fiction – Perseverance
My name is Violet Blair, and this is my story: a man from some secret agency just tried to kill me by throwing me off a building, but I landed perfectly on my feet.
He fed me some crock story about his brother’s death being my fault, but I don’t buy it.
They’re after me because I can create fire with my mind; in fact, I nearly burned down my school.
People don’t like what they can’t control—that is why they will never stop hunting me, and why I must fight back and endure.
My name is Violet Blair, I am a pyro, and I am coming for you.

I’m really enjoying Violet Blair…eagerly awaiting her story!
I do not want to meet Violet Blair but am eagerly awaiting to read more about her. Such a strong, frightening character. xx
I loved the short and choppy sentences that really conveyed a message about the narrator. VioletBlair is wonderfully creepy, and I loved the imagery you created!
Very nice – I like her brand of perseverance, and your take on the prompt. A strong character and an interesting backstory – works for me!
