Kelsey played Victor’s last words in her head.
“There’s a right way to do this which will take time. Maybe more than you have.”
“Or?”
“You can always do it the quick way. You’ll arrive safely but you’ll lose some irreplaceable resources in the process.”
By resources he meant people. Smart people. Good people. Joe who with one look could make her feel hopeful.
“And if I run out of time?”
“Well, if the calculations are off, you could still make it. If they’re shorted, no one will be alive to grieve.”
Kelsey lined up her tools.
Time to choose.
It’s 100 words of a story that does not exist. That’s the beauty of a 100 word challenge. This one comes from Rochelle-Wisoff’s Friday Fictioneer Photo Challenge and the photo is hers! I hope you like what I’ve done with it! Here’s wishing that you don’t face a choice that involves life and death for others! Best, Clare
