Challenge 197:
GOOD LUCK

Sometimes, things just fall into place.

Maybe it’s as simple as hitting all green lights on the way to work or getting the very last can of cream of mushroom soup at the store, or maybe it’s something much more unlikely, like stumbling on the last clue to solve the mystery just in the nick of time or finding an opportunity to escape the evil overlord’s dungeons only hours before execution. Whatever it is, it’s nothing your characters did for themselves; they got lucky.

But sometimes it’s hard to tell if something really was luck, or just the result of excellent planning! What do your characters think? Do they realize they got lucky? Do they believe in luck at all?

Write a story about good luck.

BONUS GOAL: Lucky Number 7

If your submission is between 700-799 words long, it will earn an extra point to be tallied in voting!

Challenge ends Monday, October 23 at 9:00PM EST.
