[WP] "When they come, don't speak, at all, just do what they tell you. Everything will make sense at the time." With that, the man disappears - LITERALLY disappears. You stand bewildered for a moment, before calling out into the empty street "WHO ARE 'THEY'?"	30
[WP] A power-hungry villain succeeds in taking over the city. They quickly realise how many resources it takes to keep people in line, so instead of becoming a dictator, they decide to rule with peace and kindness.	30
[WP] The hero wakes up in a prison cell. The first thing he notices is his archenemy, locked up with him. "You took your time" he says to the hero. "Where are we?" the hero asks in response. The villain sighs. "Looks like someone resurrected the grand sorcerer whom you killed. We're in his dungeon."	30
[WP] Choose a film, then write the story from the perspective from a non-main character/group. Examples: humans in Ice Age, Riley's parents in Inside Out, Dante in Coco. Choose ANY film.	30
[WP] Zombies are misunderstood - they all just hang out underground. It's only a few zombies that were evil when alive that feast on the living.	30
[CW] Tell a story using no dialogue, inner monologue, exposition - anything. Imagine someone who can only hear sounds, not words, witnesses an incredible event and is trying to write a story from their perspective.	30
[WP] As usual, you spend your birthday alone. It's not as depressing as it sounds, you're ok with it; this year, though, you get a package in the mail... no name, no return address... it says 'HAPPY BIRTHDAY' in big, bold letters. Curious, you open it...	29
[SP] You go to visit someone in prison, hoping to talk out what happened and find a way to move on.	28
[WP] As you're sitting at your desk, waiting for something to do, a young man enters, covered in blood. Assuming he came in to confess a crime, you ask "What did you do?" to which the man responds "I murdered myself... here's a picture." He then shows a photo of him standing over his own body.	27
[WP] The attack came from nowhere; the soldiers all fought bravely, but failed. Still, the attackers refuse to take a single life, as long as the ruler of the land surrenders; if he doesn't, the attackers will kill his men, then leave. Now, the ruler has to choose; the life of his men, or the crown?	26
