“This won’t work!”
“It will too! Stop making noise. We need silence”
The boys lit the lamps, sat and held hands.
“Oh great spirit. Come to us”
“Come to us” echoed the younger boy.
“Oh great spirit. Come to us”
“Come to us”
They paused, eyes closed.
“Can you feel anything?”
“I’m not sure. Let’s wait.”
The waited, fidgeting a little.
“Let’s go outside and play”
“Yes, lets!”
The two boys slammed the door behind them as the smoke from the lamps blew to the third chair and formed a shape that was almost human.
“You summoned” it said.

About Friday Fictioneers
Friday Fictioneers is a group that works as follows:
Every week you get a picture.
Prompted by that picture, you write a piece of fiction that is 100 words long (or as close as you can get).
You add a link to your story on the Fictioneers page, and read the varied and awesome stories by the other Friday Fictioneers.
Feel free to join us! Everyone is welcome.
creative! 🙂

Thank goodness the boys went outside to play! I like the way you had the almost careless attitude of the boys and the seriousness of the situation.
