Writing Prompt

I can freeze time. Sounds fake, I know.

But truly, I can. I just have not figured what has triggered it yet. Time stops at random time, random places. It seems I can never grasp the control of it nor the works of. I cannot stop time with my hands or my thoughts or through will. Nothing works. I even tried counting the days and hours until the next time-stop period and still, no pattern.

At leas...

“So it’s you?”

I stare at them, confusion and longing for the truth drowning me. Time stops - everybody seems to be frozen in place, like statues. My hands tremble as I reach for a nearby wall to keep me steady.

The grand apartment is crowded, dark, and loud. I can’t hear my friend tell me she’s grabbing a drink, but I can see her make enough motions with her hands to take a guess. The bass of the music is loud enough for me to feel throughout my body.

As I join in to dance with a decent sized crowd, I decide to not think about the bizarre week and just let go. I jump and move with the rhythm, grateful ...

I wake, gasping for air. I can’t breath. My lungs have been clogged, and I’m in unbearable pain.

I grab Correolanus’s arm, shaking it wildly. He panics and runs for the stream.

He lifts me and pours the water into my mouth. After a few moments, my breath comes back to me.

My chest is in unbearable pain as I wheeze, clin...

The fun had been completely taken away from doing whatever I wanted.

I had already: swum in the ocean, played with the animals, cooked whatever I wanted, played pranks on Correolanus with NO REACTION, and was now bored out of my mind.

I spent most of my time on the grass, staring at the mountains above, desperately wanting to climb them.

I wanted to do _something_. I had tried multiple times to e...

The world is spinning. I stupidly try to stand up, but my legs fail me and I nearly end up in the fire.

I cough and wheeze, my body shivering. I hear faint voices and barely feel someone pick up my now numb body.

When I can breathe again, I'm freezing. Correolanus is holding me in his arms. Relief washes over his face as he holds me close to him.

That’s when I realize we’re in the water. But I’m n...

The nightmares were terrible. I wasn’t used to having them, it was usually peaceful dreams all night.

Not this time.

I was floating through nothing, a ticking noise pounding against my brain.

I tried to close my eyes or plug my ears, but it got louder.

Then I fell. I screamed as my r...

For as long as she could remember, time had this strange way of freezing around her, like a film reel that got stuck in the projector. The world would come to a halt—people caught mid-laugh, glasses frozen in mid-air—leaving her enveloped in an odd stillness. She’d chuckle at the absurdity of it all bu...

“Hello?”

Still nothing. I stomp the floor with my foot angrily.

“Oh come on!” I kick the grass.

Then I shiver.

It’s _freezing _out here.

“Correolanus aren’t you supposed to be here and give me your jacket or something cheezy like that?”
