Fear Flash Fiction - 50 Words writing prompt entry

While stationed in Germany, we were rappelling off of a tower. The rappel master noticed I was shaking.
He said, "What kind of paratrooper are you? You're a damned coward."
"If I was a coward I wouldn't have come up the tower," I said right before I rappelled.


Writing Prompt
Write a flash fiction story of exactly 50 words about fear. The title is not part of the word count. Any genre is acceptable, just be sure the story in some way touches on the topic of fear.

Recognized

Author Notes
Difference between a Fairy Tale and a War Story is one starts with, "Once upon a time," and the other with, "This ain't no shit."
Well this ain't no shit....
