Prompt: August 2009 – #1 – Steam Powered
Gathering her skirts, Diana rushed through the front door of the Manor towards the stables. Leaning against the stable wall, a rusted contraption resembling a wagon marred the otherwise perfectly manicured countryside.
“There she is!”
Diana’s pursuers were gaining quickly, but she ran faster, not daring to look back.
She hoped the capsule clutched in her hand would work. “Portable Steam” father had called it. Wrenching open the boiler at the base of the wagon, she threw it in, then pressed the buttons and pulled levers as she had been taught.
The wagon spread its wings and she was off.
