Challenge
Try this challenge. Write a 30 word short story (any genre), but there's a catch. The first and third sentence must contain 5 words each while the second and fourth sentence must contain 10 words each.
Just as it says in the challenge prompt.

ding-dong dead

Someone knocked on my door.

When I answered, I didn't see anyone, which was strange.

So, I shut the door.

And when he knocked again, I shot him within range.

I'll think twice whenever I pay anyone a visit now. Better tell them that I'm on my way to see them.
