Welcome Creatures of the Night to yet another Flash Fiction Friday. Along with a number of other talented authors each week we are given one picture and challenged to write not more than 100 words for your enjoyment.
I hope you like what I came up with from this week's picture.
Virtual Insanity
Stepping
out of my front door I froze as I stared at my surroundings. Although
this wasn't home I knew where I was because I had spent hours here
but standing here should have been impossible, because here was the
virtual world I spent hours wandering around every single day.
The
only thing that didn't belong was the brunette staring over the
horizon and she didn't belong because she didn't exist, she was me
when I was online but as she turned around slowly and I came
face-to-face with myself I knew my PC had, literally, taken over my
life.

Slightly eerie, chilling flasher. Very well thought out. A PC can take over a life, it's true. Good one Julez
And now, that's virtual reality, or is it virtual fiction
Insanity, yes, I totally got that from the flash. I also got the protagonist's confusion, excitement, wonder, and worry. Fabulous and totally creepy :)
Either way it's virtually fabulous!
Imagine that! Great post, great story!
*shivers* Damn Julez! Talk about coming face to face to ones self. Yikes. To think of being stuck in a world like that. Creepy yet powerfully written. Def makes the hair stand up on my arms. Yet as curious as I am I'd wand to explore that world and see what naughtiness I'd find in there. ;-) Great FFF!
