The Villain

The Villain – You Choose

 

Many miles away…

 

 

It was more of a cavern than a cave.  One could find it near the shoreline, but back in the rocky crevices and beach grass.  It was wide and tall at the entrance, and very dark and dank.  On either side, one lone torch enlightened the dark and deep shadows.

 

He was alone, in the back of this cavern.  He was dressed entirely in black.  Not tall.  On Earth, his resemblance would conjure up a likeness to Danny Devito, but with more of an evil side.  Not funny. Not a comedian. Not smiling.  He wore a scowl as his expression, with most of his face in the shadows.

 

Along the back wall of this cave was a long wooden table, and he sat before it. The surface was scattered with papers.  He held one in his hand entitled INTEL in bold red print.

 

His eyebrow quirked and he ran a finger along one of the words. “Sadness.”  He grunted and nodded to himself.  He set the paper down and circled the word with his black pen, and then wrote next to it.  “Weapon.”

 

The waves began to encroach upon the shore as the tide changed.  Soon, this cavern would be engulfed in water, the torches extinguished, and the space empty.  But for now, the villain concentrated on his work.  He picked up a file folder marked “Allison and Carolee” and put the “Intel” document inside.  He tapped it closed with another nod and a grunt. 

 

 

You Choose

 

1.     Sadness

2.     Fear

3.     Anger

::Nudges you:: I'm back. I'd love to read your #youchoose story all over again! Maybe I can later today. Write more, any time! It feels so lovely to read things you say. I feel happy. I see this character as Danny DeVito as Penguin in Batman. :-D
