Weekly Contest #371
As I slowly began to open my eyes, I felt my throat gasping for air. I felt hands reaching around my throat, until I heard..“Wake Up” a whisper in my ear. I quickly shot up and turned to my side to see nothing. I placed my hand on my chest, as I looked around to see where the heck I was. Am I in some sort of classroom? There are desks sitting in rows and a white board upfront, but no posters. “OH MY” I shouted as I gripped my head. I feel so dizzy and lightheaded, but why? Why am I in a classroom and where’s…. I quickly paused as I stood up....

“I AM GOING DAD, IT DOES TAKE A WHILE TO WALK FROM THE BASEMENT TO THE ATTIC!” Athena shouted as she slammed the trap door to the attic. “God he could be a real pain in the butt sometimes.” Athena said as she began looking around. “Time to clean up I guess.” Athena said as she began picking up boxes and moving things around. An hour later, Athena has cleaned up everything except for her mom's chest, it's been 4 years since she looked through her stuff. She sighs and begins opening the chest knowing her father would yell at her once again for...
Weekly Contest #102
“We all have that one person in life that we could trust, protect, love, care for, even sacrifice ourself for. My person was a beautiful graceful kind white dove. My white Dove, that I was supposed to trust, protect, love, care for, and sacrifice for…..in the end I couldn’t do it but someone else did.” My best friend (Loki) and I were like soul brothers when we were younger, we were both popular, smart, handsome looking, athletic, and social. Loki and I would tell each other everything and do everything together. We were inseparab...
Weekly Contest #101
They say everyone has a smile that just needs to be found by someone else, but I don’t believe it. I remember the smile I had as I was younger, so innocent and unaware of the world. Was it really a smile or was I just forced to keep an act in front of my family,friends, even strangers? I asked myself in the mirror. As I grew older I learned it wasn’t really a smile but just another body part that I didn’t love . A forced smile, a fake one….a hated one. “Why do I look like this?” I asked myself as I touched my face. “Why do I feel like this?”...

Weekly Contest #88
“Well what are you going to do now? You got what you wanted, but at what cost.” I said as I slowly turned my head towards Sebastian. He was lost in thought as he held the white rose in his palms looking down at it. “Was it worth losing everyone just for a new world?” I said as I stood in front of him and he slowly looked up. “I still got you don’t I? It was a price I was willing to pay because now I can escape from all this power and live for once with you.” Sebastian said as he took the white rose in one hand and held it close to his face. ...
Weekly Contest #86
"Tears were falling onto my face, as I stared at Lilac with a sorrowful look. "You're going to be okay, I promise." She gave me a despairing smile and mumbled, "I just wonder how we got to this point." I sighed and said, "me too...me too..." It has been a long winter, as I look out my window I see the sun is shining bright, and the flowers are blooming. As I walked out of my small house, I looked around at my village. I hear families and friends coming out of their home laughing or chatting with each other. We survive another season togethe...
