The entry lights up the ethereal beauty of the exoteric community, belying the evil that lives within.
The residents had enough to be comfortable and did not care to emulate the elite who lived elsewhere – somewhere beyond the easements which edged their homes.
Except for one. The terrorist. He sat, with pencil in hand, erasing a part of his drawings to give a more exact description of the equipment he would need. He was relieved. Soon it would be over.
——sirens blared, door burst open. He was right, it was soon over – even sooner than he had planned!

Sweet aroma 
Wow that’s some scary flashfiction but really well written. Great job Oneta 🙂
Thank you, Mandi. I appreciate your kind words.
They are very true.
😀
Well done, Oneta! And that pix of the houses is spooky!
Thanks for your interpretation. I thought the looked peaceful as contrasted with the evil in one. It would probably be a good picture for a prompt, one with many interpretations. I was looking for a completely different kind of picture – a scary old mansion when I found this and changed the direction of my story.
Great flash fiction story congratulations. It hit me in a spiritual sense as well. (dealing in our lives with evil within often fuelled by the constant looking at evil stuff without).
I hoped for that message to come through. Man sees the outside but God sees the inside. The cup that is cleaned outside but dirty inside. Thanks for letting me know it hit home to someone. 😀
And there will be a day of accountability. Lightning may flash and the Day of Reckoning will come.
Oh you did well!! I’m having trouble with this list… 🙂
Thanks. Did you write one? I didn’t find it.
No, I got a few lines in and then was stuck, haha 🙂
I did the same. My first was something to happen on the easement back of an old bank…. That changed when I looked for a picture of an old bank – decided on an old castle…saw this picture and landed. 😀
Good job, persevering! I’m a bit distracted…and tired, so I make skip it, move on to something else 🙂 Blessings to you as we start another week!
😀
Nice!
Thank you.
