Hemi-demi-semi drabble

Via cottonwoolfairy I present you the hemi-demi-semi drabble - the challenge is to write a complete story in just twelve-and-a-half words.

Here's my offering:

Scottish Play

“Whatever you do, don’t call it MacBe…”
Too late.
Cursed scenery falls.

It was a time for heroes.
But there weren't any.
Evil wins.

Is it OK to count the abbreviated "n't" as half a word?

[anotherusedpage.livejournal.com]

It's fabulous! I say the n't counts, although I didn't count it for mine *grin*

And now to look like an arse - I like it (very much actually, it's about my favourite theme), but the change in tense in the last line jars a little.

[cottonwoolfairy.livejournal.com]

Heeee, brilliant.

[herringprincess.livejournal.com]

Hee hee.

[sea-bright.livejournal.com]

Yay! I like it. Lots.

Out of interest, which line did you jump in the pre-birth bureaucracy to get all the damned talent?

[anotherusedpage.livejournal.com]

Mmm. I skipped the line which gets you spelling, ballance and coordination, so got to the front of the writing-pointless-shit line early, while there was still lots going. :P
