The professor shrieked as the crocodile bit a big peachy chunk out of his body. His face turned purple with pain and blood squirted everywhere.

His eyes lowered to the man's foot and so did his jaw. He snapped at the professor's ankle, grabbed it and twisted rapidly. Another howl of pain echoed through the desolate mangrove.

Hi Lexi,
ReplyDeleteWow - this is a very dramatic tale! I love how you have described the professor as 'turning purple with pain'; that is a brilliant way to use the word 'purple' from the prompt, and it really shows me how much pain he is in.
You ended your story with a question - and I would love to know the answer! Can he make it? Or will there be a tragic ending?
Thank you for taking part in the 100 Word Challenge!
Best wishes,
