“Believers” by Amiable Sorceress

Submitted to Contest #77

Dancing is supposed to be an impossible thing. The trained finesse, soaring, rhythms so easily woven around the lyrics. The catching beat, graceful legs, emotion, a pirouette, and a walk across the stage. Anything that beautiful is surely impossible, but yet, they still jump and leap and twirl. You will see in time because change tends to happen, and then again, so does life. ~Magic~ The simple gifts, Fairy dust and rainbows, Teas clinking in the silence, Beauties of the sunset. Dancing in the moonlight, Wishin...

“Frosty's Snowy Surprise” by ✯𝐋𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐚 𝐋𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫✯

Submitted to Contest #77

Luna:Today was the day. I can't believe it! Today is when I am finally going to get one of my own! Now, my brother, Luca, won't always keep showing off, bragging about his dragon. I'm going to have one too, a beautiful, much better dragon than Luca's. I just knew it. I can feel it in my vein. For some reason, I know that my dragon will be powerful. I know it."Isn't it the day?" my father asks."Yes, papa, it is. The sorcerer had predicted that today was the day when the egg would hatch." I replied."Well, how do you feel Luna?" he asks me, and...

“Khione's snowy surprise (Part 3 of next gen)” by B. W.

Submitted to Contest #77

Cleo had fallen asleep a few hours ago and was halfway off the bed and wasn't even covered by a blanket. "Jeez, how does she sleep like that?" Ace asked while peaking through the window. Gray shoved Ace away from the window so that he could look inside, Harper was behind the two of them and rolled her eyes a bit. "Nevermind that, how could she sleep in that position?" She awkwardly coughed to get the two's attention. "Alright stop it, we just have to wake her up and show her what's going on. What if it all goes away before she wakes up?"...

“Geostorm” by Coco Longstaff

Submitted to Contest #77

So this is based on the movie I watched 1 month ago, called Geostorm. I tried to make it look like I wasn’t copying. It’s just based on the movie. If you haven’t seen it, you totally should. This story is based on the first parts of the movie, where military troops start to investigate a frozen village in Afghanistan. I hope you enjoy and please comment if you think I should write part 2. Everyone was warned, but no one listened. A rise in temperature, ocean patterns changed and ice caps melted. They called it extreme weather. They didn't ...

“Forest Fires (Sole Survivor)” by Jonathan Blaauw

Submitted to Contest #77

The day was deathly still.The summer sky was ablaze with color, awash with silent splendor. Thick, gray-white flakes drifted down from above, blanketing the earth. Andrew made his ponderous way up the slope, between the trees, marveling at the sight he never thought he'd live to see.He was all alone. His sneakers crunching through the snowdrifts and his breath rasping from his narrow chest the only sounds in the tomblike stillness.This was his moment.The brittle day had the same haunting-hallowed feel of Easter mass at St. Marks. A sacred si...

“Dual perspective ” by Sanjida Shanu🌿

Submitted to Contest #77

This day is so hot and I can't resist thinking about my goal. My goal is walking with this sun. Okay just a second let me explain it! When i wake-up today’s morning I saw the sun laugh at me! I wonder and ask him why you laughing? The sun roughly answered me "oh dear you can't go out today because, today I will be too hot like fire". And i answer " so why you try to spoil my sweet morning? " The sun again start laughing and say " cause it’s my goal to spoil your goal and now what you do!" Suddenly, I close my eyes and start thinking I have...

“TSD 3: Adventure Awaits” by Lilliane Wei

Submitted to Contest #77

The warm winds of summer whistled around her ears, tugging at her mane of golden brown curls as Maya looked out over the ocean. Gentle waves crashed on the beach, sending up a sparkling spray of cool ocean water which made her wonder what it would be like to be a Water Elemental. The seas wouldn’t merely be a beautiful world of the unknown, but a resource that she could bend to her will. The town of Kiwali’a was so isolated from the rest of the empire, that barely anything had changed when they had been conquered. Walking around, the on...

“Day 8” by 💫 Sophia 💫

Submitted to Contest #77

---------------- Day 1 ---------------- “Ahh, I can finally relax.” I thought to myself. After a long hard year of college, it was finally summer break. The pool reeked of sunscreen, chlorine, and cheap hot dogs, but I didn’t care. Today was too perfect. “Hey.” I awoke to the bright sun and this gorgeous girl standing over me. “Hey,” I replied. My voice was husky. She smiled. “ To whom do I owe the pleasure of meeting?” “Eleanor.” She held out her hand. I accepted. “Cory.” I noticed she had a little girl with her. Did she look scared? I crou...

“Those Flowers Like Snow” by Yolanda Wu

Submitted to Contest #77

Cress had learnt long ago not to be enticed by a mermaid’s song. How the notes twisted and tangled as it floated into the ear, filling the mind with nothing but a bliss of wonder and insatiable desire. Large aqua eyes fluttered with the shimmer of glittery lashes; silver ringlets swathed an ivory torso.“You faerie, are no fun,” she hummed, brushing her hand against his; her skin was soft, a few water droplets slid onto Cress’s knuckles. “Although you don’t quite look like a faerie, even though you are. It’s the air about you.”Cress didn’t an...

“Memories in the Snow” by Emmie Greensgate 🏗🔚🔚👫

Submitted to Contest #77

You know, from the moment you’re born, that you’re meant to be a Memory-Keeper. As your eyes open for the first time, looking around at the wonders of the world you’ve been born in, you can see the semi-transparent “shadows” behind people, looking on with expressions of wonder or sorrow or joy. They all have a blue glow, and are younger versions of the people they follow. When you leave the hospital (you’re always born in a hospital) you can see hardly-there people standing around, clear like glass and mostly nervous. A man talki...

“Flip Flops and Underpants” by Kristin Neubauer

Submitted to Contest #77

A chunky rat was gnawing the remains of a hot dog when he felt the first snowflake drift onto his head. He looked up, his jaw still moving. He was a Miami rat and somehow, in his little rat brain, he knew there was something off about that icy crystal perched on his head. Clamping his teeth around the hot dog, he scurried along the wall of the concession stand, over the sand, past a flip-flopped foot and into the clumps of beachgrass.The owner of the glittered flip flop might have screeched if she hadn’t been holding her phone to the sk...

“Melting in the Sun and Freezing in the Snow” by Niveeidha Palani

Submitted to Contest #77

Author's Note: This seemed a little silly, and childish to write, but I enjoyed it nevertheless. It was fun to write, and I hope you had fun reading it too! Calista lay, sprawled against the sun, wearing denim-cut-offs, and a cotton jersey. She fanned her hair desperately, yawning, and licking the melted sticky popsicle that trickled across her hand. She stood up, tossed her hat, and trudged lazily into the house to find her four-year-old brother, Jax pasting his head into the freeze box, panting. She giggled. "My turn," she smiled, sh...
