Alarm bells ! Had the the teller got suspicious and was calling security ? Or was he making a routine check ??
****This is hilarious...Ramky and I are the only people participating :lol: *****
Ok, let's continue.....
She tried not to panic, but when she felt a gun being held tightly against her back, and a voice behind her saying "It's OVER Ms Helen"...
-tried to participate, but after a while it became too complicated to follow the story line :lol:
anyways carry on..
*DIGR*
aruna,are you in SFO?
*End digr*
SS: I am in WI. You can help conclude this tale, and we can start afresh. Next time around, we should stick to the ONE-line rule though. I think that makes it more unpredictable, and makes more people participate.
Ok, I propose that we start a new tale. No point in dragging the previous one (though there were a lot of loose ends). Does anyone second? If so, then, they can start. (Only one sentence).

As she drifted into an eternal oblivion and as her body hit the floor, her limbs got entangled in an advertisement banner hanging nearby. The cloth of the banner fell on the dead body of Helen - draping it like a shroud. The edge of the banner fluttered aside to reveal a single word of the advertisement - FINITO !
[DIG] Aruna & Sandhya : i am ok with starting a new story & have ended this one. either of you can start a new one & we can all try to stick to one sentence each ! [/DIG]
Ramky... :clap: (BTW, nice pic of Maddy...) Nice dramatic ending!
Couple things that I learned from the last tale were:
1. Sudden twists, don't really work...the story doesn't get a chance to develop much, therefore the storyline keeps changing, and is hard to follow/continue. That was my observation.
2. We need to name the characters up front, otherwise, the "she"s and "he"s get mixed up. LOL

Elaine finished buckling up the third child's car seat, and was ready to make her routine grocery run that morning.
It was a beautiful California Spring Morning. The Smell of Freshly cut Grass had mixed in well in the air. The Birds Chirped, and Squirils played with the droplets of Dew on the dry Leaves that had comfortably taken their respective spots on her green lawn. The Sun was out and warm. She took a deep breath and exhaled. It was going to be a good day.
Elaine was about to step into the driver's seat, when she felt a tap on her shoulder.
