Springtime promises hang in the air. And Red wants her happy ending—no matter what her mother might have said. No matter what the cost. A darkly optimistic sequel to the Little Red Riding Hood tale, for people who want to believe in hope. 900 words. Welcome to Inklets, a series of short (and sometimes short-short) stories ranging from sci-fi to fantasy to lingering just on the edge of normal. One thing's for sure: you won't look at the world the same way again.
