The Chain Writing Game Story No. 4

Who would have said that that once-in-a-lifetime experience was going to start with a fanny pack being thrown out in a rubbish dump?

Alejandro was always putting off her wish of being a nurse, his friends were always telling him to go to the skate park and he couldn't say no, even though he wanted to start studying. He had never been a cool kid, and when he achieved the title of the most popular skater, he was so happy in his late forties because he doesn´t have to apologize with nobody and he thought that was good moment to have a gap year.

               

It was a foggy day, and he decided to go hitchhiking. Unluckily, he couldn't see right because of the dense fog there was, so he ended up lost. He was in a mountain alone for almost a full day, and he hadn´t broght any food with him, so he had to eat some berries he wasn't sure if they were edible or not. When the fog disappeared he found a path to a small village from where he could return to his town. Even if this experience was hard, he thought it had been worthwhile.

The following day Alejandro put the buggy into the trunk and he drove to Barcelona. When they were in Zaragoza, he noticed his car had a flat tyre. When he was...

The Chain Writing Game Story No. 3

Long time ago I had a once-in-a-lifetime experience. I was walking at night after going to a friend's house. After a time walking, I looked back and saw a man, who was following me. He had a fanny pack, and I saw he had a knife on it, so what I did was I hid in a rubbish dump to distract him so he couldn't assault me. 

I could see this man, I think he was in his late forties and I remembered him. We were near and I put my foot on him, so I apologized for it. This time was so hard for me and I needed a gap year in my life. I was very stressed in my job because I was travelling a lot and I couldn't see my family.

But, Why was this man following me?

Without thinking about it so much, I decided to hitchhike. In a moment, I was in a car with a woman. The car started moving and I lost the man in the foggy background. The woman asked me if a wanted something edible, because I didn't look good at all. I accepted, I would be scared but my stomach was worthwhile. We started talking and I asked her if she could take me to my house. She accepted nicely. The day was blurred and my car was with a flat tyre like the buggy for children in USA then I began to do the covering letter  because I was to find a job early..

The Chain Writing Game Story No. 2

One day I was riding my bike and I stopped near a rubbish dump because my mobile phone rang. I get into my fanny pack and I heard a woman who said me I am the winner of a good present. I can choose a travel abroad and sleep in the best hotel. It was my opportunity, I was in a gap year and this was going to be the moment for breaking up with everything. I went into my house, where I live with my partner. She was a woman older than me, she was in her late forties. She worked in a train station but she had been on strike during two months now. When I came in, I apologized for my delay but the day was foggy and another time I had to hitchhike because at the same time I was looking for something more edible for me.

While I was hitchhiking I found a photographer. She was trying to take some pictures of the landscape, but all these pictures were blurred. When she realized she was angry, and decided to go back home. I continued my way and I saw some cars, all of them were rusty and with flat tyres, broken windows... There were some of them with buggies in them. It was scary.

The Chain Writing Game Story No. 1

A day somebody bought a fanny pack and when he went home he was angry, so he yelled at his family. When he realized what he had done, he apologized to them. He told them while he was buying the fanny pack he couldn't drive back, because there were a lot of taxi drivers on strike, so the roads where blocked. He remembered a man in his late forties telling him that the only way to drive to his city was going in the opposite direction. When he explained that, his family was eating edible plants.

He said he had come back home hitchhiking and he rode on a car with a strange man. The driver was driving really fast along a foggy road but he said me that he is a professional racing driver and it was worthwhile. His covering letter was a little bit scary to him. Everything looked blurred and, eventually, they heard a awful sound. They had flat tyre. The strange man started pulling out things out of the trunk, including a buggy. He finally pull out a new tyre and he changed the broken one.
