What is a '#tag story'?
In #tag Story, you will be writing a five word story by using hashtags, which must be related to the given prompt or situation. For example:
A woman gets murdered in the absence of her husband. The detectives find out in her multiple calls by an unknown number in her call log. On tracking the location, they soon catch and arrest the murderer, who was her ex-lover.
#Woman #Murder #Detective #Ex-Lover #Arrested
Read the following five situations provided and create tag stories for them. Please see the Guidelines and How To Enter sections for more details.
A man is found dead on the porch of his own house. But another man walks out calmly claiming to own the house and shows the legal property documents. On investigating further, it is revealed that he is his look-alike and has been fooling the murdered man's family for years.
A detective has been receiving unknown phone calls, claiming that his fiancee is a serial killer. He ignores the calls thinking about their six-years long relationship. He decides to tell this to her in a mocking way, and when he does, he's left speechless when a gun is pointed at him.
An old man has been living for the past ten years right across a graveyard. Some say he misses his deceased wife, while some believe he's mentally disturbed and probably needs assistance. But when a lady psychiatrist is sent to aid him, she is never heard of afterwards.
A woman is found dead in your apartment while you were hanging out with your friends. You don't know her and the police say that she left a note blaming you to be the killer. Your name is written with blood on the wall. But a closer look at the wall reveals the killer. The woman is your landlady's sister and the name on the wall is her middle name, not yours.

He might have a chance if he can survive a out of control spaceship about to crash on an asteroid, a crazy pirate that wants him dead and a abandoned Russian secret base. Pretty rough for your first log in to the game.
