Fortune cookies - enough for at least one each

Instructions

Scouts sit in a circle. They get to enjoy their fortune cookie. But they must keep the fortune and not show anyone.

Start in a random place. The first Scout needs to start a random story, It is only a line or two. At most it is a paragraph. It can end on a cliff hanger such as "He was hanging in the air wondering how he got there. The baddie explained ...." The most important rule is it must contain whatever is written in the cookie fortune.

The story then continues with the Scout on the right, with the same rules. And so on.

The last Scout has a challenging task of following all the above rules, but also ending the story.
