Here's my 100 word response to the Friday Fictioneers
photo of the week, Couriers in the High Peaks:
Into the icy wind, Gianna and I had to go. We were almost out of food, and the
snow had softened enough that we could pick our way through the scowling mountain
peaks. If we ran short of water we
could melt snow, but so far it was no problem. We bundled ourselves into our black hoodies, scoured the cave for tidbits,
made sure we had the packet, started off when it was barely light. Moving fast over the dark slopes warmed
us up. After we passed the dormant
volcano, Gianna bent over a stream. “Look, Cosima, fish!
We can eat!” she said.
