A Really Short Story -

There once was a spike-pit. It wasn’t too dangerous or too concealed; it was a decidedly modest spike-pit. Only occasionally were there victims oblivious enough to fall into its spikes of fairly certain doom.
This situation was rather unfortunate for the modest spike-pit, since he always wished to be a well-known and greatly feared spike-pit, one who would make all his potential victims squish delightfully and painfully in the deepest, darkest, and deadliest parts of his mighty pit.
The young and fool-hardy spike-pit’s selfish greed for bigger and better status would be soon his downfall, as he was suddenly snatched up by the unfeeling talons of a flying cactus-fish. He suffocated slowly and with a great pain that was fit punishment for his hubris. The End.
