70 Word Flash Fiction Contest Entry

The Hostage

by DragonSkulls



















My team rapelled from the helicopter in moonlight. We had
intel that our political hostage was on the second floor of a
building being heavily guarded by terrorists. We silently gained
access and eliminated the first floor threats. Using a flashbang
grenade we then took out the enemies on the second floor.

I grabbed the hostage and shouted, "Let's move!"

"We can't."

"Why on earth not?"

"Because that's seventy words."
