So, we did this again except we had to use five specific words, each randomised for each person, mine was -
Needle
Gas
Brick
Maximum
Ant
My language features were a hyperbole, metaphor, and alliteration.
Here it is
I was an ant, compared to him. He towered over me, his eye the size of a brick. You could give him a needle, he wouldn’t notice. And he wasn’t even at his maximum height, he still had growing to do. He could swipe us aside like we were a gas. In years to come, I would be retold my own story and I wouldn’t believe them. I took a deep breath and tried to slip behind the group of people, I couldn’t look. He heaved hundreds of huge rocks and moved them aside. He hadn’t yet noticed his audience.

Using five language features and exactly 100 words..........A random paragraph
"She was as beautiful as an angel sent from heaven. She was everything to us all, there couldn't have been a better person than her. She was simply svelte, scrupulous, scintillating I could say so much more.” I really didn’t know how he was holding it together, he looked on the verge of tears. “Do you know what she used to say, to everyone, despite everything, ‘The world's a stage, and we are all its dancers, some balancing on the beam, others already tripping over themselves.’”. He couldn’t hold his tears, they poured as he quietly walked to his seat.

100 Word Challenge 2017 #5
"65 years, it been quite a while hasn’t it" Tracy's voice was the only thing I could hear. “Where exactly did we land?” “Tracy, what is that? Tracy I told you not to eat food we can’t identify as clean.” “IT’S FOOD, I’M HUN-” “CLOse your mouth.” I look around at the swamp around me, raised sea levels, intense heat, looks like climate change got the best of the place. I look to see the remains of a statue, I creep towards the remains of a multicoloured giraffe. “I know where we are.” Good job New Zealand, you’ve done well.

This was a day to remember, I was walking down the street, IN PURE DAYLIGHT, when all of a sudden these random people come out OF THIN AIR. I pretended not to notice as they started looking around, as if they lost something. That was when a glint caught my eye. I picked the item up when the people from before saw the object they came towards me, I handed it to them and like it was simple as moving a finger they vanished, I decided not to talk about it, thinking I might go crazy questioning it.

I listened, I was to stay in my room like always, it was a specialty, my cushion was becoming uncomfortable and the people playing the violin in the room next to me were almost as annoying as that one sibling who always took your things. I sighed and stood up and walked from my scarlet room to my balcony, humming a soft tune as I watered my pride and joy plant, I smiled knowing it would one day outgrow the current pot it was being held in. I sighed and fell asleep at the balcony, looking at the golden sunset.

“Sis, this isn’t normal. We have to report this to the police!”
“They’ll hear us over the phone think we’re crazy.”
“I know, maybe, we could show it to someone else, and get them to report it!”
“What and ruin their lives too?”
I couldn’t stand them, my siblings were crazy and I hated it.
I needed to leave.
The windows wide open.
“Connie what, don’t you dare.”
I felt the grass underneath my feet as I ran, straight into something cold, I fall back onto the ground and look up towards the creatures face, with fangs dripping with red.
