THE INNOCENT MURDERER.

''Bestie, I killed an innocent man.''

''Ebere!''

''I saw him at the market, screamed 'THIEF!' and he was caught and beaten to death, I later saw the real murderer; he has a scorpion-tattoo on his cheek. I should've left vengeance to God.''

''I don't...

''My parent murderer, I KILLED HIS TWIN BROTHER!''

There's one going on currently, 200 words flash fiction here https://www.nairaland.com/3985381/win-10000-naira-writing-short

Thanks, I already checked that one out, and have done my part. Did you drop any fruit of your imagination there?

Okay, nah I didn't.

Not really challenging and kind of unstructured, I prefer this one for the challenge it offers.

goodluck to you dear

Interesting Thread

Hi Rhukie,

Please like and share my post here https://www.nairaland.com/3919666/seun-osewa-battle-moderator-judges/3#59436045

for your vote to count

Thanks in advance

Audreytimms, thank you so much for retaining me. I kinda already lost heart because i don't really know how to solicit for likes and shares. Imagine my surprise when i logged in today to find out you put me through to the next round. Thank you

I am sorry but is it against the rules to ask how to canvass for votes? I really don't know how its done.

Nairaland should have an "How to" section...

Thanks a mill. Well, I can't say I don't see the truth in you assertion; good luck here.

Divepen1 and all the judges are doing a very great work! It's not easy.
However, I've an idea that can be applied against next edition!

I think the competition should be in stages according to how good you think you are. Like amateur, Professional etc. Something like that sha.. So you won't be pairing someone like me who isn't even a writer but just trying to engage and test my ability with a pro in writing!

Just a suggestion o! Keep doing the good work! Thanks

Misery loves company

His life was over, he thought, depressed. He had lost his job, wife and children.

Then he heard his neighbors fighting again and their children crying miserably.

He picked up the gun angrily and went to their door.

He would end it for all of them. None would wake tomorrow.

Hmmm.. That's a cool one. Let's hope for a better sponsor.

Infant Immortality



It travelled down the lonely greasy path soiling its birthday suit and arrived a new world where life was too bright, cold, smelly and alarmingly deafening.... It kept mute.
They watched....
It was grabbed and turned upside down gently. A palm struck its buttocks once.
Shocked! The newborn wailed indefinitely....

Devil's Lair

Kenny should have known. His wife never welcomed him with a warm smile or good food.
He moulded a bit of the pounded yam, stirred it in the fish stew and swallowed.
“Why are you smiling?” he asked his wife.
“I poisoned our meal. Welcome to h-h-ell.” She spilled blood.

THE MISTAKE





I stare furiously at the stranger as he pays for his meal from my wallet,which I left on the table to use the restroom.


He knowingly smiles and points behind him, I Iook and see my actual wallet and realize I'm on the wrong table. I smile apologetically.


'Thank God!'

Like The Twitch Before A Teardrop

After the chief's death, people despised our mother, like slaves despised their lords. While she womb still harbored Kure, she was put in jail. There, she met Alero who then planted me in her and whom Kure learnt to call father. But happiness had a slender body that broke easily.

One More Step

Asake chuckled as she typed excitedly into her phone. Her mother's footsteps echoed as they descended the staircase.
' You and this phone', her mother complained.
' Leave me mama', she mumbled. ' I'm not...'
She screamed as she missed a step and sent her Samsung S8 crashing, screen first.

When every member of their team has dropped their works.

But I thought we had a timeline to adhere to? I think nobody should keep anybody waiting so the competition will get moving...

Am I the only one who feels how rude this is? I mean even if you're soliciting for help, at least take permission first.
