Prompt: #122, Las Vegas
Older and Far Away
He paced and drank. Had confused thoughts about exile. Exile or escape? Pylea, Caritas, Los Angeles. He got out of them all, sometimes just before they went “Boom!”.
Things didn’t change in Pylea. Here, this dimension, was a roller coaster ride. You never knew. You had nothing, then a nightclub, then a family, then a jailer. And it all happened so fast.
Now, there were drinks, music, all the glittery satin he could wear, adoring fans. But no way out.
The expected door knock came. “Two minutes to showtime.”
He finished the one-too-many drink. “Oh yeah, showtime. Viva Las Vegas!”
