A Drabble is a work of fiction that is exactly 100 words. It’s a challenge to write but a lot of fun to read. So please, read, ponder, comment, and clap.

“I stand before this great assembly of the ethnicities of our galaxy and am honored. It’s an opportunity to speak to you of peace.

I propose that we cultivate a unified climate of peace, and completely and unconditionally submit ourselves, our children, and our futures to this great treaty of tranquility that lies before us.

(At the middle of her speaking, the galaxy’s outermost warning sensors were picking up strange anomalies in the protection field. By the time the anomalies were recorded, analyzed, and understood, it was too late.)

We salute this great Treaty of Tranquility that will bring peace.

Don’t miss some of the other Drabbles. Love the romantic twist in these two.
