This is an entry for Day 4
TASK: Write a flash fiction story about a scavenger hunt gone wrong in 300 words or less. Witchy Woman   The 2 A.M. Follies Word Count: 299 It was Krush’s last day at work and part of the Retirement celebrations was to find little rubber duckies which had been strategically placed all throughout the dispatch center. Val had set up the duckie hunt. She passed out clue papers to everyone, but somehow her coffee list had gotten mixed up in the clues and Krush got that list. The first item on Krush’s list said empty coffee pot. That looked easy. She went down to the coffee supply area and emptied out a warm pot of coffee. She spied a yellow duckie on top of the microwave. Amanda came in and picked it up. Next item said tea bags. Easy. Vee came in fussed that the coffee was gone – and she desperately needed a cup at two a.m. Krush picked up a stir stick, a sugar packet, and vanilla creamer in short order. At 5 a.m. she reported to Val with all the things on the list. Imagine Krush’s shock when everyone but her turned in rubber duckies and she proudly displayed her stolen coffee supplies. “You were supposed to find Duckies,” said Val. Krush produced her coffee list. “I got this.” Val turned red. “I was wondering where my coffee supply list went.” Vee frowned. “I complained all night that there was no coffee!” Lilly glared at the creamer. “I was a zombie without it.” Navon crossed her arms. “I had to make a new pot there were so many complaints.” Krush felt bad. Val dug into her backpack of goodies, passed out $5.00 scratchers to everyone. Krush won $500.00 on her scratcher and Vee hauled in $250.00 for her inconvenience. Navon declared from now on she was in charge of all the future office scavenger hunts, and Krush walked out of the building happily retired. |
