OK
this is another story thread, but I would like it shaped a bit more coherently.
RULES:
1. Minimum of 1 sentence, NO MAXIMUM
2. "And then he stuck it up his pooper." etc, are discouraged. it's ok to do something strange, at least make it your own.
3. Keep a central character, and a general jist of the story intact.
GENERAL JIST:
central character: Zinga Burga
setting: Australia (if you know nothing about Australia, like me, wing it. go ahead and make it, i don't know, a big island used by a foreign power as a substitute to local imprisonment. think No Escape (http://imdb.com/title/tt0110678/))
what's happening: who knows? run with it.
START:
Zinga's left eye was swollen shut, but he could still see his captor. His hands had been zip-tied behind him, but they had neglected to remove his watch. Twisting his left hand upward, he slid a finger along the base of the watch and triggered the in-built laser. He caught the tie in his hand before it fell to the ground, and remained still. The man slowly moved toward him. He was carrying a car battery in his right hand, and jumpers in the left.
