Another idea derived from the creative prompts is to start a story off with the saying “The Clocked Winked.” So here it goes. The clock winked as if it was trying to provoke me. Each minute slowly ticking by as you are strapped down to a chair not knowing where you are. Five minutes later, the door slides open and you are face to face with a masked stranger holding torture devices. Thoughts are racing through your mind as the stranger inches nearer. Frantically moving trying to get loose, the stranger stands over you and thrust the chair downward with a force that rattles the floor boards. He whispers something to you, “How would you like to die?” You begin to cry and are so scared you cannot come up with an answer. Next thing you know, the closet door flies open and out jumps you friend and a video camera laughing hysterically. “I hoped you learned your lesson for that time that you scared me!” He states. Next thing you know, you are having breakfast and restraining yourself from strangling your friend.
