June 15, 2013 - 12th Contest!

[Grace, Head Moderator]

For our twelfth contest, I want you to write a fan fiction. Yep, we're switching it up this week. There are a few things that are important to remember, though:

1. The fan fiction can be based of of a book OR a TV show OR a movie series (please, no single movies).

2. It has to be a popular book, show, or movie, because if it's not, we'll have no idea what's going on. Stick to Harry Potter (book and movies), Twilight (book and movies), Supernatural (TV show), Doctor Who (TV show), things like that. If you are wondering if your idea is popular enough, you can message me and I'll most likely reply in the same day, if not the next.

3. If someone already posted a story that is from the same book, TV show, or movie series, don't worry. You can post a fan fiction based off of the same thing as other people. That is not a problem in the least.

4. You have to keep it appropriate. Please God I'm begging you. Some fan fictions can get out of hand and that is not what is happening here.


Rules:

1. It must be at least 500 words (anything less will be deleted and disqualified from the contest) but no more than 1,500 (anything more will be deleted and disqualified from the contest). NO EXCEPTIONS.

2. No commenting on others' stories. Only writing entries will be accepted in this thread. If you want comments on your stories, post them in the Critique folder. If you have questions, concerns, or suggestions, this is where to go: http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/9...

3. No sex scenes.

4. Keep cussing to a minimum (it's ok if a word slips out here or there, but please keep it PG-13)

5. Have fun and DO YOUR BEST! And vote for the winner!

Entries are due by Sunday, June 30th. Voting will begin that day.

The Hunger Games fanfiction
by GrlPwr00


I woke up screaming; I cant get picked, i just can't. I dont have the heart to kill other kids just so the Capitol can have there bitter, unnecessary revenge because of the Dark Days. Katniss comes over whispering "Dont worry Prim, it was just a dream ,your name is only in there once." I then go back to sleep, with my mother. She looks so young, like she did before my father died in a mining accident. Buttercup comes and walks around my ankles before lying down. My name is Primrose Everdeen and I am part of District Twelve.
********
I am dressed in one of my best dresses for something that i dont even think requires formal attire, the Reaping, the time where everyone is forced to join in city square to reveal which male and female between the ages of 12-18 will be forced into an arena to fight to their death. Effie Trinket from the Capitol has come to pick the names Bouncy and as colorful as ever she walks out onto the stage and taps the microphone. After a short film and quick introduction she says her catch phrase "Happy Hunger Games and may the odds be ever in your favour" she progresses towards the bowl in which the girls names are placed. She circles her hand in the bowl for what seems like forever before choosing a crisp white paper that is the death penalty for someone. "And the female tribute for district twelve is.." she carefully unfolds the paper, "Primrose Everdeen!" This can’t be happening Katniss promised me, she said I wouldn’t get picked! The crowd clears a path so i can walk to the stage. The peace keepers are beckoning me forward. As I move towards the stage I hear a voice. “I VOLUNTEER, I VOLUNTEER AS TRIBUTE!” Its Katniss, why is she taking my place? She has more to live for, she can be happily married with Gale her hunting partner. As I get pushed back to the crowd her voice is telling me to go with mom but her eyes are telling me something different. Their telling me to run away as far as I can. I watch frozen in my place as she climbs up the stairs towards the stage.. Effie asks her pointless questions that I just can’t seem to hear. Before I know it everyone is kissing their three fingers and putting them in the air, a sign of gratitude. Quickly Effie choses the second name “Peeta Mellark.” A strike of recognition crosses my sisters face. Peeta climbs the stairs shakes hands with Katniss then they are forced to go into the Justice Building. We have a few short minutes to say what could be our final goodbyes. “Katniss you have to win, you have to!” are the words that come rushing out of my mouth as tears spill over my cheeks. Mom says a few words as Katniss yells at her telling her to keep good care of me. Finally a peace keeper comes to tell us that it is time to go. As we leave the building I see Gale go in. I don’t want to leave her behind. Is this really the end?




((sorry for all or most grammatical errors had so many ideas it is 545 words))

Twilight: How It Should Have Ended

Edward threw me in the passenger seat of the car, and I screamed because it hurt my broken leg.

“Sorry,” he said.

“I love you,” I said as I smiled. Edward zoomed to the driver’s side so fast I couldn’t see him – I would never get used to his vampire powers.

“Where are you taking me?” I asked. I looked down at my prom dress and prom-styled hair, but there was no way he could be taking me to the prom. It just wouldn’t make any sense.

“Where do you think I’m taking you?”

I stared at Edward as he drove. He was a very attractive man.

“You’re probably taking me to some place to turn me into a vampire.” I smiled. “I’m right, right?”

“No,” Edward said.

But this answer didn’t make sense to me. And then Edward’s phone rang. He answered it even though he was driving – at three hundred miles per hour, by the way – and I noticed it was unsafe, but I didn’t say anything in case it made him leave me forever.

Edward was talking to my dad on the phone, but why? And then he was talking to that kid Tyler, but that didn’t make sense either. I heard beautiful Edward say, “Hey Tyler. No, you’re not going to go to prom with Bella. She’s busy tonight. Sorry for the miscommunication. I hope you have a crappy evening.”

“Oh my gosh!” I exclaimed. “You’re taking me to prom!” I was so angry. “Why are you doing this? Do you hate me so much that you’d take me to prom?”

“Don’t be bipolar, Bella.” But I was so mad that I cried. “Why are you crying?” he asked, his perfect eyes narrowing perfectly.

“Because I’m mad! I’m going to die at prom because I’ll trip over my cast and my broken leg will somehow kill the rest of me!”

Edward rolled his dazzling eyes like he thought I was ridiculous, but I didn’t see how. I was being perfectly rational. This made me angry, so I took a knife from my bag and stabbed Edward’s leg, but since he’s a vampire it doesn’t hurt him, so we laughed and laughed and laughed. And then we were at the school.

When we got in the prom room, Edward danced with me but I’m clumsy so I fell a few times.

And then Jacob Black showed up and approached us. “Hi Bella. I was hoping you’d be here today because I think you’re really pretty and I want you to choose me.”

“Okay,” I said with a smile, beginning to turn to Jacob before Edward yanked me back with beautiful strength. And then I remembered that I loved Edward so I couldn’t love Jacob too.

“No,” Edward told Jacob, and Jacob frowned, a kind of expression where his lips tilted downwards instead of upwards. It looked funny and so I laughed.

“Can I cut in?” Jacob asked.

“Whatever,” Edward said. He headed off to devour a human.

Jacob danced with me. I asked him, “How tall are you?”

“Six feet, two inches,” he said proudly.

“Whoa!” I exclaimed. “That’s like two feet more than yesterday!”

“Yeah, I grow fast. My dad paid me money to come here. It was like twenty bucks. How could I resist?”

I nodded, understanding completely. “See anything you like?” I was bad at flirting, but for some reason everyone wanted to date me anyways.

“Yeah, but to be with her I’m going to have to kill her vampire boyfriend.”

“Oh, I’m sorry,” I said, sympathetic. That sounded like a horrible situation! I’d hate to be a part of that. “But let’s change the subject,” I said. “I want to talk about how Edward saved my life.” And so I went on and on about how my beautiful pale-skinned vampire boyfriend saved my life.

And then Edward showed up behind Jacob, like whoa! He could move so fast. He pushed Jacob aside and took his place dancing with me.

“I’m mad,” Edward told me.

“Why?”

“He called you pretty. I don’t want other people to call you pretty.”

Jacob showed up again, looking angry. “Well tough luck, vampire.”

“Oh my gosh!” This looked like a duel.

Edward and Jacob – I couldn’t decide who was more attractive! – balled their fists and got ready to fight, but I said something first. “Wait!”

“What?” Edward said, turning to me with love in his eyes.

“Can you turn me into a vampire? Pretty please?”

“No.”

“But why? You don’t want me to get old, do you?”

“No.”

“Then turn me into a vampire!”

“Okay.” Edward leaned towards my neck and was about to bite me, but just before he did, he pulled back again. “Psyche! Just kidding, I’m not turning you into a vampire.”

I stuck my pouty lip out and made a sad face, but Edward ignored me. I knew he still loved me though.

And then Jacob ripped his shirt off! His abs were so beautiful that I decided I was in love with him. I rushed to him and wrapped my arms around his neck. “Oh Jacob, I choose you!”

“Yay!” Jacob said.

“No,” Edward said, pulling me away. “I love you.”

“I love you too!” I said. Edward was just so darn attractive. I blinked a lot and chewed on my lip excessively.

“I won’t have it!” Jacob said, rushing to my side. “I will leave you with only one option.” He proceeded to take a stake from his bag and stab Edward with it. My jaw fell open as beautiful Edward fell to the ground, looking like he was in pain.

“Oh no!” I said. “Is he dead?”

Jacob nodded.

I stared at beautiful Edward’s body a moment longer before hugging Jacob. “I guess I have to choose you then!”

But then Alice appeared and stabbed Jacob with something sharp. He screamed and fell down.

“Why’d you do that, Alice?” I asked.

“I had a vision that Jacob and Edward were dead, and no one else would volunteer to kill them, so I had to do it myself.”

“Oh,” I nodded. “Do you have to kill me too?”

“No. Only if you want me to.”

“Well,” I explained. “I wanted to be a vampire, but that was only because of Edward. And Edward was the most beautiful man I’d ever seen and so since he’s dead I don’t want to be a vampire anymore. And besides, I have no other reason to live. So yeah, kill me, too, please.”

“No,” Alice said. She’d apparently changed her mind.

I ran up the stairs to go cry somewhere, but along the way I tripped and fell backwards, being the clumsy girl that I am, and landed painfully on the floor below. It made my leg hurt really badly and I cried because I was mad. And then I realized all of my bones were broken, and so I died.
