Prompt: Write a short story about a man who discovers a magical portal
Response:
Jimmy felt something tap him on the shoulder, and when he turned around, he saw a boy no older than 10 pointing at a spot in the distance. “There’s a portal there,” the boy exclaimed. Jimmy was skeptical at first, but he decided to follow the boy’s lead. When they got closer, Jimmy could see that the boy was right – there was a portal opening up in the ground. Jimmy stepped through, and when he emerged, he found himself in a completely different world. He was surrounded by beautiful flowers and trees, and the sky was a deep blue. He could hear the sound of wild animals nearby, and he felt a sense of peace and safety. This was the most amazing place Jimmy had ever seen, and he wanted to stay there forever.
