Can You Tell A Story In…

Hello, all. It’s nearly the end of the week so that means there’s a new story challenge for you:

Can you tell a story in 6 words? You must use the following word somewhere in the story:

  • IRON

Last week’s prompt was to tell a story in 30 words using the following words in it somewhere:

  • BLACKMAIL
  • CO-STAR
  • VASE
  • CUPCAKE
  • SEA

Here are your hilarious stories:

Kim Smyth:

The rising co-star was munching on a cupcake as he stared out to sea, while considering his role as a blackmail artist when his gaze wandered to a beautiful vase.

Christine Mallaband-Brown:

He looked at the actor. “Blackmail me?” he said. “Listen, cupcake, you’re just a co-star! Remember, buddy, if you carry on this vase hits you and you’re dumped at sea!”

Treehugger:

Is the producer all at sea? The chef baked him cup-cakes, gave him an expensive vase, then blackmailed him. My co-star bakes but will never win an Oscar.

Ann Edall-Robson:

Cupcake opened the door. A delivery man held a vase of flowers she called sea Co-star. They always came with the blackmail note. “No more!” She screamed, slamming the door.

Sharron P:

The cupcake-obsessed actor was being blackmailed by his co-star. She wanted to sleep with him and threatened to stuff his cupcakes into a vase and throw them into the sea.
