We drove down the short, windy road to the lake. The alien was standing there in the middle of the water holding a ray-gun. It telepathically told us to give it our car.
I stepped on the gas. My wife threw out a bottle of Mountain Dew and said, "Suck on this."
The alien fired its ray-gun. The beam hit several trees. The trees burst at the spots they were hit and fell over in front of us, creating roadblocks.
I stopped the truck and went to the bed where the cooler was kept. No alien was going to stop me from getting away from it. I grabbed a bag full of ice and water.
I bolted toward the alien, dodging ray-blast after ray-blast as I jumped from tree to tree. When I got to the water's edge, I was hit in the leg by the ray-gun. My leg shattered into pieces.
The alien laughed and said, "I was only playing with you until you decided to attack me."

Haiku - These are coming out every couple days or so. If you stuggle with rhymes, no worries. Haikus don't have to rhyme. All you need to make a haiku is five syllable on the first, seven syllables in the second line, and again back to five syllable for the last line. So easy it makes me think I'm being super product. LOL
Mizu No Oto - Every Image Has Its Haiku Contest - By reading the title, you should be able to guess how this haiku contest works. You're given an image and you write. I've really enjoy this contest because there are people here who've actually gone to classes to learn how to write haiku's; so if you want, you also can learn how to write quality haikus from reading the comments and critiques they and others give.
50-word Challenge - This is an interesting challenge and very challenging to say the least. You only get fifty words to tell a story or a vignettes. Here is a great post that will explain the difference between the two concepts. Good luck, Brave Story Writer!
Vocab-Ability 1x1 - What happens is you are given a list of roots and the words they can be found in. You create sentence using those words and post in the comment section of the post.
