Drabbles
A Drabble "is an extremely short work of fiction with exactly one hundred words (or sometimes 100 words maximum depending on the exercise or contest). The purpose of the drabble is to teach brevity and test author's ability to express interesting and meaningful ideas in an extremely confined space." Often (but not always) Drabbles (especially in Fan Fiction) are given a theme or other requirements (like the manditory inclusion of certain words).
Drabbles are a form of ultra-short fiction that has gained popularity in the Fan Fiction communities. The name comes from Monty Python's Big Red Book (1971): Drabble. A word game for 2 to 4 players. The four players sit from left to right and the first person to write a novel wins.
