(WP) I read the small, handwritten note but never expected it would change my life forever.
I went on a tangent with this one: It took two weeks for us to go back to the flat. I just couldn’t face it. It seemed to be the final step, which I wasn’t willing to take.

Do not cry child. Death is not the end. She has merged with the stars, watching over you. When the sun rises, it beams down upon the world. It never frowns. Do you know why?

[WP] A major city suddenly disappears under an enormous opaque dome of unknown origins. It is indestructible and featureless, except for a digital timer counting down exactly one year.
Chicago disappeared over night. In an instant one of the largest cities in America was engulfed under a milky colored dome. Nobody was sure where it came from whether it was extraterrestrial or some type of new warfare waged by our enemies here on earth. Whatever it was, it made up some unidentifiable substance. Millio...

[WP] A major city suddenly disappears under an enormous opaque dome of unknown origins. It is indestructible and featureless, except for a digital timer counting down exactly one year.
I still remember the sound of It. We still remember the sound of It. Who the hell could forget the sound of It. The day had started out like any other in mid-summer. Not as hot as the mercury was set to rise that afternoon, but hot all the same. Air conditioners hummed. People perspired. Children ran their way to schoo...

The Dome. It was always called by that name and always with a feeling of slow encroaching dread. On the rare occasions the adults actually mentioned it, Danny could hear the capital letters seemingly thud into place. Ever since it had flashed into existence on his eighth birthday he wanted to touch it, to press his ea...

**365 DAYS REMAIN** Chaos. Mass hysteria. Panic. London is gone. Well, not gone. Truth be told, we don't know what happened to it. This giant dome just... materialized. One moment London was doing fine, the next moment, it was covered in a dome. You want to know the strangest part? The dome has a timer on it. A big...

[WP] You've encountered the source of all evil in the Universe, and it isn't Satan.
I stood outside of the door waiting to see what could be inside. This was after all the great source of evil. Could it be a monster? or could it just be a mirror to show me that we are the source of evil? what do I hope to see? What do I want to see? Should I destroy it? What should I do with it? Will everyone hate me ...

[WP] You've encountered the source of all evil in the Universe, and it isn't Satan.
Being a reporter, I'd do anything for the latest story. The bigger the story, the better it was for my career. In the world of news, it's dog-eat-dog, and I have to do what I have to do. Some reporters go to extremes to get the next big story, and as much as I hate to say it, I'm one of them. So of course when my p...

Write a scene from your favorite fairy tale, but replace the main character with Kanye West.
"Ain't this some bullsh*t!?" Kanye-rella couldn't stand the fact that his two step-brothers were invited to Hollywood's biggest ball of the year, the Grammys, while he was stuck at home cleaning the floors. They were dressed to the nines in sharp suits and gold bling. Kanye-rella couldn't stand to watch as his two step...

Write a scene from your favorite fairy tale, but replace the main character with Kanye West.
It was a bright morning when Yeezy began his journey. He tripped gaily into the forest, adventure the only thing on his mind. Well, adventure and bitches. And money and drugs. But adventure mainly. Kanye was thinking about giving his friend Jay-Z a call, but he couldn't get any reception on his iPhone. He turned to le...

Write a scene from your favorite fairy tale, but replace the main character with Kanye West.
"Who is this?" "Yeezy." "Yeezy-who?" "Bitch, I just said." Snow white opened the door, revealing a dark-skinned man dressed in odd-sized clothing. The robe was the color of darkness, and a pair of unusual white striped glasses sat on the man's nose. "Oh, how scared I am! Alone in this house, approached by a man of...

[WP] The life you knew is not what you thought it had been, rather the truth was an illusion the entire time.
My usual day to day cycle involves getting up, spending the morning with my wife, and then going to work at a special needs group home. I have managed my schedule to have three days off a week, spend two nights at work, and stack double shifts Friday-Monday. The result is sixty hours of work a week. The best part is t...

[WP] You are an animal, witnessing a human tragedy. Although you don't quite understand, something inside you starts to grasp the situation.
I really just didn't feel up to playing fetch today. I haven't for a while but today seemed even tougher than usual. I can't even remember the last time I ran. Arnold really wants me to run today. I wish I could tell him how sorry I am. Even his dad cried today. His dad always looks sad but I'd never seen him cry...

I was taken for a walk when master slowed down near 2 car with wrinkles in it, there were lots of people including those men in the funny uniforms. There was a woman like master sitting down and she was making water fall from her eyes, like master does sometimes when she holds me extra tightly when she comes home. Wh...

[WP] You are an animal, witnessing a human tragedy. Although you don't quite understand, something inside you starts to grasp the situation.
I was woken up by a loud sound, like a fat bird I couldn't find. The long hair two legs picked me up and took me into a very dark room. There were no windows here but the entire clan was huddled in it. The alpha legs turned on the lights and I could finally see the faces. They wailed like under kittens and their faces ...

The sound rumbles through the deep. It's a deep, constant, humming, throbbing sort of sound. Like the sound of icebergs sliding together, but somehow it feels ominous. Coming to the surface I exchange the spent air in my lungs for a fresh dose of cold, clear air. Near the horizon is a dark shape, unlike any iceberg I'...

Considering the nature of the image I'm changing the flair of your prompt to "Writing Prompt".

[IP] "How long is forever?" "Sometimes, just one second"
Hmm, I think this would be better tagged as a Writing Prompt. You could just say the quote in the title. Image Prompts are supposed to be like actual depictions of something. I don't think taking picture of a quote counts as a "striking image"

I have a question before I respond: Does the story have to contain that dialogue, or can it just be about that idea?

[IP] "How long is forever?" "Sometimes, just one second"
She had finally broken it off with him. She had been single before, while I was in a relationship, so that wasn't what made it special. What made it special was that I was single. Now. While she was single. I walked into the party and saw the usual scene. I hugged a few better friends, said hello to a few acquaintanc...

Zevra stood outside the cracked airlock, hugging herself trying to conserve heat as the vacuum of space pulled the warmth from her body. She held down the defog button on her wrist console, looked up through the hazed helmet, and saw Len14 emerge from the space station. Len14's faceplate was shattered, exposing the e...

[IP] "How long is forever?" "Sometimes, just one second"
My wife smiled at me. She was covered in sweat and tears and she looked as beautiful as I'd ever seen her. "Want to hold her?" she said. I couldn't speak. She moved our daughter in my numb hands. "Watch her head," she whispered. The little eyes watched me, blinking, her face tasting the air. I let out a half, tired ...

[IP] "How long is forever?" "Sometimes, just one second"
"How long is forever?" She would ask me that sometimes. Usually right after I told her that I would love her forever. Forever and Always, I would say. Until the end of time, until the end of the world, until the end of everything. Never until the end of us. We both knew it wouldn't matter, I would still love her more ...

The first time I saw her, time stopped. The wind stopped blowing, the water stopped flowing, the birds stopped their song and my heart stopped beating. Her beautiful, sunlit golden hair, eyes that remind you of the sky and the forest at the same time, the smell of her flower perfume. Everything about her was perfect....

A flutter of feathers both heard and seen. But in that single second I seemed to experience eternity all at once. As the bird flew past my face, close enough for me to reach out and almost touch it, I recalled the childlike wonder I had once felt about the world. On some beach, on some vacation I had taken as a sma...

I looked down at my drink of nectar. It somehow did not look as appetizing as it did when I was mortal. The thought struck pretty hard that I was no longer mortal. Dionysus slapping my back, “congrats me bucko.” I looked down at the spill on my now dirty toga and tried scrubbing it out. The party god chuckled. “You ar...
