For the uninitiated, I have taken to writing short stories. Really short ones. 55 words or less. All thanks to Vivek (@vivekisms) from Twitter who runs a #55wordstory hashtag every 1-2 days.

Do check out the archives and go through the stories. Love, lust, chappals, tomatoes, eggs (poached) and pink chuddies welcome :)

#55wordstory - Catalyst


Today's theme was 'Catalyst'

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“HANDS UP! Give me all your cash or I'll kill you”

“SOMEONE SAVE ME!”

A muscular, caped silhouette glides down beside the robber.

“Who the fuck are you? Leave now!”

“Seriously? A knife? You need this”


*Hands over a couple of AK-47s to the robber*


“I AM CAPTAIN CATALYST”
