I am stunned. This was done very well, though I wish I'd never read the story. It's such a gripping tale, so close to reality, I cannot forget it. The children... their horror sinks into my very soul, it haunts me...

Your storytelling skills are outstanding. And in less than 1,000 words, written in 24 hours? I'm impressed.

Well done. Well done.
