《A Truly Bizarre Collection of Flash Fiction》7. Untold Power
Advertisement
Dear Diary,
Day 1
Today did not go as expected. The drop happened and I have the item. Of course, my money purse is looking a bit sparse now, and I’m unsure of what to do with the item for the time being, but supposedly it has untold power...
Dear Diary,
Day 30
The item... it has hatched. I now have what must be “untold power” in the form of a lizard. Aside from tearing apart the eraser on my pencil as I am writing this, I’m starting to rethink the meaning of “untold power”. Perhaps it is untold because there isn’t much to tell?
Dear Diary,
Day 90
I am growing increasingly concerned. I started with one lizard, which by the way now has wings and flutters around annoyingly, but now I have probably around... 50 lizards. It would seem that my lizard was female and had somehow attracted a mate. She laid a lot of eggs, and... they’ve eaten all the padding in my couch. I’m starting to realize that their power may come from the sheer strength in numbers.
Dear Diary,
Day 300
HELP. The couch is long gone, so is all the furniture, and my house is on fire! The mother lizards have formed a protective band over their babies and are nesting in my basement, and the daddy lizards have gone to multiply and replenish the earth. It is the lizard apocalypse as we know it!
Dear Diary,
Day 700
Still alive. Edit: Lizards are dragons. I don’t know if anyone will find this, but if you do... just please don’t.
Dear Diary,
Day 1200
I have formed a mighty tribe of cave dwellers. We love our caves. The caves are safe. We shall raise our babies here.

8 109Rise of the Goblin Dungeon
Jason loved to play dungeon games. The feeling of power to govern over a kingdom of monsters brought him utter deligth. Now his dream will come true and he will become a Dungeon Lord himself. Will he prevail or will the self depicted Lord go under along with his new found home. This is my first fiction and english is not my native. Just to have you warned. With this I want to do a little experiment, if anyone has an idea or wants to see something happen (for example some kind of monster or adventurer to show up etc) write in the comments and maybe I'll integrate it into the story if it fits.
8 101Dramione - The Accidental pregnancy
Yes it is a dramione story, set up a few years after the war. When the annual Hogwarts alumni ball brings everyone together, the last thing anyone expects is for Draco and Hermione to end up together in a bed-drunk. Lots of Dramione, baby and Draco moments n loads of fluff.Ron is not portrayed badly, I wouldn't even dream of it. There is a villain, there is mystery. My very first writing work. Go on, give it a go! Be as honest as u can in the comments if u wish to give me one?
