Friday Fictioneers – Write a 100-word story based on the Photo Prompt image above by © Roger Bultot
Close Encounters
“This looks a good place, Commander.”
“It’s a long way from Wyoming, Zeva.”
“Devil’s Tower has been crazy with tourists since we arrived with our light show in ‘78. Too risky, They can be aggressive.”
“Yes, good point. We don’t want trouble”
“Okay Roy, you’ll go down on a light beam to that street with writing on the tables.”
“It’s called tagging.” Roy rolled his eyes.
“Use and share all we have taught you for a better world.”
“Yep, I’ll do my best.”
“We’ll miss you, Roy. Now go find your family, you won’t need to sculpt your mashed potatoes anymore!”
Thanks for reading

Cleverly creative. Well done. 🙂

This story changed a few times while being written, but was a bit of a giggle. One of those ‘whatever happened to’ …. Roy’ yarns.
Thank you, Bill, I’m glad you liked it. 🙂

Dear Fleur,
Nice to get the other side of that close encounter. It was hilarious to watch him sculpt his mashed potatoes, though. 😉
Shalom,
Rochelle

Thank you Rochelle 🙂 I started the story about aliens returning a ‘passenger’, and Roy fitted the mold perfectly…pardon the pun!

I loved that movie, have seen it a few times. I was working in the scene where he is ‘playing with his food’ and sculpting a mountain from his mashed potatoes 🙂 Thank you, Mason 🙂
