So I have to write a 5 page short story for school. I need your help with ideas to write about. I have an idea in mind, but I want to see what ideas you all have. I want to write about something dark, but not one that's just all blood and gore and stuff. I also like writing metaphors, which is great to combine with a dark story. If I get crappy ideas, I have the backup one, but I bet a few of you here have some nice ideas. Thanks!

And if you're wondering, my idea is a story about a guy who gets hit by a car and dies, but the reader doesn't know about that happening until the very end, sort of like "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge".

That is why we give horrible ideas that will result in a fail.

A story about a guy who's car has broken down, looking to find somebody to repair it. He finally finds somebody, but it's revealed at the end of the story that he has found a baker (who is useless for fixing cars). The car is a metaphor for your homework and...well, you can figure out the rest.
