First Lines

I saw BitterIrony do this contest. And I liked the idea, so here i am. I just want to change it around a little.

Just give me the first three lines of a story. YES, it can be prewritten but I will ONLY judge the first three lines.

There are NO RULES.

I will only judge the first three sentences of anything you enter. You can enter as many times as you want.

Okay leave now. Make it suspensful. Make me want to read more.

xD

  3. So little. So tiny and fragile, and breakable. It was a shame to see its once proud form left uncared for and discarded.

    Can I submit a story and just have you look at the first three lines of it, or do you only want the first three lines posted in a new story?
