Woop woop!

Unfortunately some one else had to drop out from this team, so there is, once again, an open spot on this team. If you know anyone who is interested in filling up this spot, please let them know. But until then, since Team Summer is two members short, I will be giving them 5 bonus points each round to make up for it.

A quick reminder that you even though you use your team name many times in your story, you’ll only get pointed (is that a word?) for one, and that the pictures/drawings included in your post (if you want to get points for them) they must be your own. 🙂

---

|Getting extra points|

• You can take photos or draw pictures to illustrate your story. You will get 2 points per photo and illustration.
• Creativity. This is how creatively you use the prompts. At the end of each round I’ll select my favorite story and that person will earn more points for their team.
• If you use the name of your team in your story, you can earn a point for your team. (e.g forest; the forest was dark and gloomy)
• You’ll get a point for each prompt you use, and a point for submitting your story/poem.

Deadline: 20th of January 2018

Leave a link down below and the number of points so won’t miss your entry. 🙂 If I missed your entry for this round and you submitted it within the deadline (12th at midnight), let me know and I’ll tally up your points.

Good luck and have fun!

Emily. 10. The hot pink of her outfit stood out from her pale skin.

Peter. 14. His brown hair lopped over his forehead and his shirt matched the deep blue in his eyes.

I remembered them so well. Emily’s cheerful smiles and playful ponytails. Peter’s awkward grin and thoughtful eyes. I could have been with them forever if only I had held on.

I was a friendly bear in the house, and when the two children, alone, came to my cottage seeking refuge, I invited them in and they stayed for a while. In fact, they stayed from when little Emily was dragging around her new found love of a teddy bear till she was still sleeping cuddled up next it’s patched up, furry, dirty self. That was almost four years they stayed with me.

I loved them with all my heart, and it seemed that they were now my own. Until I let them go. They were happy with me. An orphanage deemed that a bear was not fit for two children to live with, and they ripped them from me, hitting them with the news like someone’s face slapping the surface of water from a fall in the clouds.

Peter was coming home from some errands and was stopped by some people. I still remember what they said:

“What are you doing here?”

“This is my house.”

“Not anymore.”

I just stood by and told my mind that I couldn’t do anything to stop these people from taking the children that had grown to be the only joys in my life.

Emily still sometimes comes to visit me in the forest, and sometimes she comes dressed up as a Princess. When she does this, I take her hand and kiss it gently. I bow and she curtsies.

Just picture Em to be a lot smaller 😛

Then she laughs, throws her arms around me and gives me a long hug. I cradle her in my arms for a little bit, then we talk. We talk about anything, really. About the thoughts she’s had. About the things she has done. About the little paper doll she made yesterday.

But it’s not the same. If only I hadn’t given up.

Sorry that was such a bad sample! 😛 XD
