AUTHORS NOTE: Written for the September 15th drabble word 'Harbinger'.
He is the harbinger of doom. No structure stands a chance in his wake.
Oh sure, he looks innocent with those cherub cheeks and that 'who me?' smile, but don't let that fool you. He is hell on wheels.
My structure was perfect. The architecture was flawless, each tower smooth and perfectly shaped. It was my best ever.
I saw that evil 'I'm up to no good' gleam in his eye.
I don't try to stop him. It'd be an exercise in futility.
Charlie O'Neill is a one boy wrecking crew, and my poor sand castle never stood a chance.
