As I'm sitting here, in this box-shaped room, staring at my prey three feet away from me, I am anxious. This child, an innocent child, will die. She is nothing to me, nothing at all. When she wakes, only then will she notice my presence. She is sleeping calmly, probably dreaming sweet childish fantasies of blue skies and purple unicorns flying to see a magical princess. Little does she know that in a few short hours her rosey red complexion will fade away to meet a dull white color. Little does she know that the curls that surround her face will fade and cover a life-less dull face. Little does she know of her radiant blue eyes fading with the sunset. Unlike the sun, her eyes will never surface again.

~Little does she know of the monster I am~

Absolutely brilliant, I love this piece, it inspired me myself to start writing flash fiction. It is so powerful for such a short piece. It's very emotive and thought provoking.

It is a good flash fiction piece. I think you might be able to make a longer story that leads up to this moment, then the events following if you can think of something.

I really like how you told the story from the monster's point of view. It's a pretty cool twist.

It's impressive that you were able to bring all that emotion and thought with so little words. It's great! If anyone wants to, could you please read my story? It's called The Story of the Demons. If you do, that would be great :)
