The Disappearance

Use the writing prompt below to inspire you.

You and your significant other go to sleep one night, and you wake up alone in the morning. You don’t find a note or message anywhere. All you hear is silence, and your calls and emails go unanswered. A year later, your significant other comes back and acts as if nothing has happened. What is going on, and what do you do?

The Time Machine

Use the following writing prompt to inspire you.

You and your colleagues develop the first working time machine. You’re selected for the first trip, and you travel one week into the future. When you emerge from the time machine, you see the lab where you work has been trashed and no one is around. You find a message written on the wall over your desk: You’re next. What’s going on?
