Words required:Sedative concierge ballroom crystal varnish law spoon hand news laser
I felt like I’d just taken a sedative as the concierge greeted me and directing me to the ballroom.  Walking in I looked around; lasers played across the ceiling highlighting the crystal chandeliers, the table’s were set with literal silvers spoons and if I wasn’t mistaken all the wood had fresh varnish.  It should be against the law to flaunt your wealth so obscenely I thought as the man of the hour strode over immediately launching into a self-congratulatory speech on what wonderful news he was.   I plastered a smile on my face hoping to just get through the night.

Use all 10 words in exactly 100 words:
Saw, angle, emerald, fell, arrow, neck, sign, perch, sapling, fire




An emerald tipped arrow how poetic the killer thought as he sat on his perch awaiting the approaching target.  Her eyes darted around the forest searching for a sign of movement, she knew she was being hunted then. Her eyes fell upon the stump of the small sapling he had been forced to saw down to give him a clear angle and the killer cursed under his breath. She turned her head and the smooth skin of her neck was exposed for a moment as the killer drew back his bow.  She ran and the chance to fire slipped by.

Use each of the 10 words within a 100 word count:
Boxing gloves, wine, hour, barrier, skirt, lump, pebble, key, orange, prince

I felt a lump, as if a pebble was stuck in my throat as I tried not to cry. I was an hour late and my love, my prince was waiting. A barrier separated us, a locked door I could not seem to open. My hands felt awkward and sweaty as if I wore heavy boxing gloves. Wiping my hands off on my skirt had not helped the key would not turn.  He looks impatient standing there tossing an orange hand to hand a bottle of wine at his feet.  I am afraid he will leave before I get through.
