Warning From the Future
Ominous microfiction challenge entry
I need to be brief. I only have fifty words to tell you the most important information you will ever get. The world you know is a lie. It is our fault. I’m sorry to say that it is coming and the only advice I can give is to run.

I took my son and niece to Gori, a small town in Georgia where Joseph Stalin was born. They talked me into visiting the Stalin's Museum, the largest in the post-Soviet space. I had resisted going there because I just can't stand the monster and know enough about him, or so I thought.

Oh shit! It's about to go down in GM MC Paul-town! Love it!
Final word structure could be better. But good.
Oh, wow. You only had fifty words, but still managed to give me chills 😳
I'm a running....good job!
Ominous, succinct, leaving a whole lot of questions unanswered, most importantly, "Run where?"
Perfect.
Where shall we run? You forgot to mention where the danger is coming from. Would be nice to have some sense of direction :D
