DRABBLE STORY ARC #1: UNTIL LUCK RUNS OUT
Wrestling the Zombie
A chapter of a ‘choose your own’ story — Drabble edition!
This is a continuation of You Are Dead, a Choose Your Own Adventure Story — Drabble Edition, started by Bradan Writes Stories. Find out how to contribute here, or return to the previous chapter here.
At first, you barely manage to keep the zombie’s foul-smelling mouth away from you — twice it nearly sinks its teeth into your neck.
You turn a few times during your struggle until the zombie is positioned between you and the stairs to the dungeon.
A perfect opportunity to surprise Lord Diabolus.
With a twist of your lower arms, you wriggle free from the zombie’s grip and kick it down the stairs.
Finally, a moment of triumph!
Milliseconds later, the zombie grabs your extended leg in its fall and pulls you down with it. Your head hits the stairs first.
This is a collaborative story, and you can add a chapter with an alternative path, or a whole new story of your own if you like! Come join us at Choose Your Own Adventure–Collaboration to contribute, or check out the examples below.
