Temptation is nothing new to me. When everyone regards you as the 'good guy' or the 'nice guy', when you had parents who took you to church every sunday and drilled a moral code into you until it was hard-wired into your DNA - when someone like that is put into a society which basically lives doing the opposite, temptation hits you dead in the face.

And its sneaky, temptation is. Sometimes it will just start out as an invitation, an opportunity, a conversation. Then it leads to a product, or a dish, a drink, a tablet, a club, a kiss. Then worse. 

And people don't even realise. They can't see what inner struggles I have over something they might not bat an eyelid at. It's so difficult, and you can't share it. It's a burden that a person must bear alone. It's so tough, and no one can help. 

So this 'prophecy', or whatever? Thanks for nothing. Its useless to me now. If it was meant to be a prophecy, then its come way to late to help me now.

Who are the Weird Sisters?

For those of you who don't know, the Shakespearean play Macbeth opens with three witches, "the weird sisters" on stage. These witches later inform Macbeth and Banquo of events that will take place in their futures. To put things lightly, Macbeth takes their predictions very seriously - so much that it affects his very character.

So what do I do?

When you're tagged and given a prophecy, post a chapter about how what you have been told affects your (or your character's) life in a positive or negative way - or, of how it has no affect at all!

(Note: Please keep chapters under the maximum of 250 words.)

And when you're done, tag two or more friends and give them a prophecy to base their chapter on. Be as vague or as specific as you like!

Have fun :)
