The rules are the same as 5 word story, but with one twist:
Instead of trying to be random, you have to try to make sense and keep it serious. As in basically, trying to write a completely normal story, except for the "five words per person". I'll start:

Melissa woke up from her...

climb the Empire State Building.

The last few posts are clearly either not serious, or while serious in themself have been in response to posts that are not. Therefore, unfortunately they must be dropped. That kind of material is more suited for the other 5 word story topic.

Quote from: The story so far.
Melissa woke up from her bad dream. She looked at herself in the mirror, and sighed.  "Another day of life."
She had become a beautiful young girl over the last couple of weeks. She went to a lot of effort...

Remember: The idea is to write something completely serious, and the only unusual thing about it is the five words at a time per writer. If you want to be crazy, that's what the other Five Word Story is there for.

It's kind of hard to do it with the five word limit.

What, we just said she had the urge to climb the Empire State Building!  lol

The posts in this thread have been brought to my attention.

Unfortunately, there isn't a clear line between serious and light-hearted, so I'm going to say this... if your continuation of the story doesn't sound realistic, it probably isn't serious.
