I'm starting at the beginning with our MC, sixteen-year-old Charlie, who is not at all what she seems, so here we go:
This wasn’t a freakin’ animated fairy tale like the ones I’d watched in the movies or on television so long ago. I knew that well, thank you very much. Movies and television were gone now. No more radio, no more Internet, no more tests of the emergency broadcast system. All gone, and we were back to the basics, back to the primal earth in a constant game of predator versus prey, and we were no longer the predators. Trust me, it was no fun being the prey.
Read more Six Sentence Sundays here, or sign up to participate next week. Hope you have an enjoyable Sunday.
Happy Writing and Reading,
Cherie

Wonderful! You established the character's voice, added some world-building, and left me wanting more. :)
Uh-ho, where is she now? Great six!
Wonderful six! Raises so many questions. Love your voice!!!
Excellent - wow no internet - and true being pery is not a good thing. What happened to the world?
Hmmm, she sounds tough enough to handle being prey (and turning the tables). I LIKE her, set up sounds very interesting - great six!
Great intro to her, full of voice and an underlying tension. Definitely sounds like she's not in an ideal place :)
