Short Story Outline

Setting:
In an endless circular path of a rocky road.
In the middle of the woods.
It's a depressing, isolated sight.

Point of View:
First person.

Characters:
Narrator/Young Daughter
Mom
Man/The Enemy

Conflict:
The mom and daughter continue going in circles in a rocky path.
The daughter knows the way out, but the mom ignores her.
The mom is blinded from reality.
The Man continues being an obstacle in their lives.
He gives them wrong directions, making them stay on the same path for years.
The daughter knows exactly who she's dealing with,
but the mom is ignorant to the situation.
Mom falls in the Man's traps (A deep black hole)
and thinks that she found the way out.
The man took her eyes/eyesight.

Resolution:
The daughter runs away towards the exist.
She gains all sorts of weird animal strengths and powers.
She encounters a wall the Man build, but she ends up destroying it.
She goes and tries to find help on the other side.
She has no luck, so she returns to face the problem and ends up
rescuing her mom from the hole.
She takes her weak mom in her arms and flies over the the border
that divided both the beautiful side and evil side.
Both, the mom and the daughter were being transformed in the skies.
They weren't bleeding or in pain anymore.
Their clothes were clean and the mom got her eyes/eyesight back.
They were happy once more.

Theme:
Never give up on what may seem impossible.
Love and appreciate each other no matter if the other is in a
situation where they think that they are right.
Defeat all obstacles.
Size, age, and gender doesn't matter. We can all defeat EVIL.
