[Short Story] Titanium Law

35.8k Graingy  one month ago

Another 100 word short story. Previous upload here.


A sturdy knock at the hinges snuffed the conversation from the air, tackling voices into strained silent like a bodyguard.

A dozen breaths later the door flew from its frame, landing dramatically in a clear space. The stage was set for a strong-arm show, the waiting silhouette its renowned performer, and its programme known by heart so much as burned into mind. In with deceptive cool strode the titanium revolutionary, every alias reductive short of proper, but chances were all witnesses would soon scream the same scream.

Seconds later, red as the flag, the enforcer emerged, his founding dreams fulfilled.

    @EnglishGarden Refer to the closing notice of this.
    Arguing genuine political ideology, beyond ideals, is completely detached from the circumstance.
    Without getting too deep, the nature of the character in question is less "Communism: Yay or nay?" and more "Can one superior lifeform outwill 8 billion humans?"
