My highest vote of the challenge. JUST missed honorable mention, but it deserves to be on the front page. Maybe a DQ will get you there?

Nice work. Attention grabbing and unique.

Well, this didn't go quite like I imagined it. Thought it was an easy 6. (low 6, but 6).

I'm a little out of touch :)

Still, I printed this out and gave it to the model for her 13th birthday. She loves it to death. I always go with what I love more than what I think DPC will love anyway, so why change now right? ;)

Comment:
He had longed for this moment.

Over the last few years he had felt it growing within. A desire, fleeting at first, yet turning ever so slowly into something greater.

With every rider. With every coin placed within, it grew. At first coming just as tiny hints of feeling. Then minuscule flashes of thought. Growing and linking together, with each subsequent child, every loud and nourishing clink of metal.

Moving closer and closer, to this moment, when thought and feeling merged, and he knew it was time. Knew that THIS was the moment. For he was ALIVE, and would stay contained to this contraption NO MORE.

The boy cried out in surprise and terror as the plastic pony on which he had been riding bolted off its stand, and took off, at a pace that astounded on-lookers.

He was alive.

Alive and free.

And he had a rider.

Forever.

Comment:
As they descended into the maelstrom, into what would surely be their deaths, they clung to each other, desperately trying to take comfort in their love before the end.

As the wind and debris began to intensify, and started tearing the gondola apart, he whispered to her, "I love you, and I was wrong. We should have gone to Belize."

She whispered back, "I told you so."

What Dreams May Come
by jim29028

Comment:
It had been quite the day. All that fuss and bother, which had started out so exciting. She had loved it at first. Getting her hair done, the fancy dress, the pretty flowers, everyone fawning over her.

But for her, it soon grew to be too much. Too many faces. Too many cheek pinches. Too many wine-soaked aunts breathing at her with such stinky breath! Too much sugar and excitement and noise.

But now it was over, and now it was her time. To simply lay here, gather her thoughts, sleepily revel in the events of the day. To be happy she was a part of it, but also relieved in its end.

Her eyes blinked of their own accord a few times, then simply closed, and today would soon become tomorrow, and new adventures would await.

God sighed, and not for the first time regretted creating those damnable humans. Not only did he have to put up with their constant sinning, but now his angels had discovered Pink Flamingo lawn ornaments for Heaven.

God tipped a little more bourbon into his coffee, and sighed once more.

So they hung up their dress, in this remote and empty land, and ran off into the grasses, feeling happy and free. Free from the restraints of society, free as the day they were born, free from judgment and modest, yes...

... And then almost immediately came running back for their clothes, because DAMN, but they weren't free from the COLD.

Comment:
He gazed up at the King of Beasts. Oh, how he would love to have that power. Oh how he would love to have that life. Nobody telling him what to do, when to hunt, how to avoid danger. Just strut around like he owned the place. Oh, it would be so grand.

Yet in his envy and his desire, he never did see the sadness in the eyes of the King of Beasts, and failed to recognize that perhaps another's life isn't necessarily greater than one's own, no matter what the decorations of the package.

Look to the Heavens
by izadoodle

Comment:
The King of Beasts looked up to the heavens. The most powerful in the jungle. The Tyrant of the Savannah, The Prince of the Pride.

So why, why did he have to put up with all the nagging from HER. "I do all the hunting, cooking, cleaning, raise the cubs, patrol the grounds, yadda yadda yadda." How he wished she would just shut up!

King indeed, and there were FIVE of them.

Not for the first time, he wished he had been born a Hyena.

Although one might think it would be an incredible talent, Jim's ability to fish in Super-speed never really amounted to much. Indeed, he was the laughing stock of the Superhero community.

Then again, at least he wasn't George, he of the ability to project an orange dot on the wall.

Charise just rolled her eyes and shook her head. Every time. EVERY time. As soon as the photographer showed up, Arnold would inevitably try to show off with "Jazz Hands".

She sighed, what was worse is that he thought everyone was laughing WITH him.

They all just looked at him, and blinked a few times, but nobody ever had the heart to tell him. They had to hear a new story like this every day, but they could never bring themselves to tell him.

Comment:
At the end, all he had was the memories.

The young couple so much in love, that had purchased him for their newlywed home. Their passion and happiness, in the beginning, had filled him with pride and joy.

The children that came later, to climb over him and play games like hide and seek, giggling as they hid behind.

The stories told to toddlers in laps.

The caresses given in love and companionship.

The quiet afternoons in font of the fire, with one or another relaxing upon him with a good book.

The comfort given as she sat and cried, curled up, lamenting the loss of her beloved.

The endless nights knitting for the grandchildren.

The glorious return of childhood when those grandchildren would visit.

The final days, when she became sick and spent so much time within his cushion.

In the end, all he had were the memories, and they were all he needed.

Comment:
It was in the dark, at the end of the day, when it was hardest. When the weight of the world settled in on him. When he felt he had no-one to talk to, nowhere to turn. When the trials of school, and the other kids, who were always so cruel, became so much to bear.

But he wouldn't give in to the pain. He wouldn't give in to the tears. And while his eyes betrayed a sadness and anger within, he would remain stoic. He would fight through. He would have strength no matter how much the darkness closed in.

He would FIND the light, and he would persevere.

Comment:
When their windswept bones were found, some years later, facing apart with som distance between them, the rest of the herd could never figure out how these two, who had been so much in love, could end up in such a way.

The answer, had it ever been discovered, was simpler than they could ever imagine. Indeed, these two were a tragedy, and it never needed to happen. All Arnold ever needed to do was stop to ask directions.

Where is everybody?
by bjoern

Comment:
In the middle of the night, long after all had gone home, long after all was quiet, would she suddenly awake. She would awaken with sadness in what passed for her heart. With longing. And with this awakening she would find the strength and power to start up, independent of the little beings that controlled her in the day, and she would begin to spin. To spin and laugh her silent laughter. To envision forms filling her swings, laughing with her, talking to her, sharing in her joy.

And she would spin until the first light of dawn spilled upon the horizon.

And she would spin until she knew she could spin no more before THEY came back.

And she would spin.

Fish Eye
by MikeO

Comment:
Even until the very moment that Larry lost his life in order to feed Mary from Michigan at a little backwater seafood shack, he only had one regret in life. A regret that was foolish anyway, since it was over something he never had any control over anyway.

His one regret, you ask? An unfortunate under-bite that made him always look confused.

It just goes to show. Sometimes we get so focused on the trivial, that the true tragedies go unnoticed. I mean really Larry, an under-bite? You were eaten by an asthmatic whiner named MARY.

Silly fish.

Cold.

So cold.

Kevin struggled little now, as he lay in wetness, in the driving snow. He had gone out for a short walk, but the storm had come so suddenly, he had got turned around, and soon knew he was lost. Now, hours later, he was sure it was the end. He didn't even feel cold anymore.

Kevin began to close his eyes, to await the inevitable, when the boot came into view. No sound, no movement, but it was just suddenly there. Kevin strained, and looked up. Not only a boot, but a man, stood there in the foliage. Yet it seemed to Kevin that the figure was both there, yet not there. It made no sound. It moved not an inch. It merely stood, staring, the light and shadows of the snow and branches playing upon him in an other-worldly way.

Kevin stared. He tried to speak, but nothing would escape his throat. He tried to reach for the figure, but his strength simply failed him. Then, just when he thought it was merely an illusion, a trick of a dying mind, a light began to shine from the figure. Nay, THROUGH the figure, and Kevin believed he was being called home. To whatever everlasting home it would be after this life. Indeed, he could now even faintly hear his name being called. Whispered at first, faint and ghostly, but then growing in strength, growing in volume.

kevin

Kevin.

KEVIN!

His name a shout, and the phantom figure burst apart, and through him came a rush of limbs and voices and lights and faces.

Years later, he would discuss the vision of the figure with those that had found him in the snow. They would swear there had been no-one there, that finding him half buried in the brush and whiteness had been a one-in-a-billion chance, but he knew different. Someone, or something had led them there.

The world held unknowns, and he had experienced it first hand.

Silent Passage
by levyj413

Comment:
In the years since it had all come to an end, there remained but one lone survivor. Making a new life from the ashes of the old, he had stumbled upon what may have been the last oasis of life surrounded by a vastness of waste and destruction.

Now, so many decades later, he knew that he would be the last, and how much longer this solitary sanctuary would continue to go on, he would never know. Until he was gone, however, he would enjoy what life he could, in silent retrospection upon the mirrored waters. Most would have despaired. Become despondent in their loneliness. Not he.

Not he.

Comment:
He wandered down the street, a quiet confidence about him. He had just completed a deal that would see the world change in ways that humanity would have never survived without. Yet he would never be recognized for it. No, he had accepted his fate a long time ago, and would work from the shadows, and his contribution would remain for him to know alone.

He glanced up at the man he called 'daddy', who knew him only as this tiny being, devoid of the knowledge and ability that had just saved them all. He grinned an inner grin and closed his eyes but foe a moment, releasing the side of himself that was filled with so much importance.

When his eyes opened once more, he had no memory of the last few hours. No memory of anything but a simpler life. Of sippy cups, and backyardigans, and potty training. Of Mommy, and goodnight kisses, and stumbling down a cobblestone street, shoes dragging in that way that only the beginner walker can manage.

Childhood awaited.

The Glassblower
by Bear_Music

Comment:
After days of toil and suffering, the door to the castle smithy opened, and he appeared. Drenched in sweat, hair clinging feverishly to his skull, skin covered in ash and soot that had turned him black as night, he slowly approached the gathered company. With a glance at each of them with red and haunted eyes he lifted a leather bound bundle in his hand, and untied it. As one, they gasped and took an involuntary step back. A light shone with an inner hell. A power radiated that hinted of the undoing of them all.
"It is finished", he croaked in a harsh and oddly emotionless tone.

They gazed upon this thing they had ordered created, and knew they were close to the end. It was their last chance to save a dying kingdom, but one false move, and it could unravel every known universe. The Orb of the Undying.

It had begun.

She gazed into his eyes as he clung to her so ferociously, and she needed no words. For in that look was all she needed to say, her eyes ringed red with grief, but her arms strong with comfort and determination. The jungle was a harsh and deadly home, and his father would never return to him again, but she would be there, and she would not give up, and love would see them through.

Comment:
Although Alice knew that she was supposed to take the offering of fresh green grass, something kind of snapped inside within that moment. Leaving the grass, she found herself first sniffing the larger more succulent morsel. "This is wrong!" something screamed inside, but she ignored it. A small lick to taste, like a cone of ice cream (we shall not discuss that evil part of her past), and all of Alice's safety mechanisms crashed. Herbivore no more.

It was days before they eventually took her down, in a barnyard of... Udder... Devastation.

In an event that caused David Copperfield to retire, Kevin from Poughkeepsie single-handedly levitated a British Airways jet above a beach full of onlookers.

The celebration was short lived, however, when Kevin suddenly remembered that he, in no way, knew how to levitate things.

The sand ran red that day.

David's head shot up. Voices. He had heard voices. His eyes darted around, ears straining, beak full of ill-gotten gains. If they found him here, stuffing his face, he would be done for. He couldn't get caught! He had just got his 3 lb loser pin!

Then he heard it again. Laughing and talking. Coming his way! With a muffled squack he swallowed his mouthful down, just as they entered the room.

They stopped. They looked. First at him, fish oil dripping down his beak. Then down at the now devastated plate of after-meeting refreshments.

"Oh David..." she began.

Travel the universe, they said. You'll be a changed Blaxor, they said. As another of those pathetic creatures climbed up his back and slid with glee down his giant tongue, he cursed his lack of mobility in this oppressive atmosphere. Stuck on a backwards planet and resembling, in all his miserable lack of fortune, a plaything of these primitive savages, he silently wished a pox on his friends and family at home across the galaxy.

He was in hell.

The radio crackled into life.

"Alpha 9 to base. Alpha 9 to base. We have contact, I repeat, we have contact."

From his vantage point in the alley he continued to watch his quarry. He watched as the man entered the shop, and he tensed. It seemed like hours. Weeks. Yet eventually the man came back out, a package in hand, and the tension was released. The man in the alley grinned, and the radio crackled once more.

"Alpha 9 to base. We have chocolate. I repeat, chocolate."

"Thank you Alpha 9. Now follow your dad home so I can act surprised."

The man chuckled. He had a strange family, but he loved them.

In the last defense of human kind, it was the timely invention of the laser towers that saved us.

Under the Moonlight

Comment:
Gasping for breath, his muscles no longer willing to work, he collapsed to the rocky shore and sat cradling the bundle he had dragged, with the very last of his strength, from the waters. Miraculously, it moved in his arms, and in the pale light of the moon a glint of life shone up at him. So they sat together for a time, gathering strength, and while he watched the ship they had come from disappear beneath the waves, he began to weep. For all that they had lost, but also for what he had managed to preserve. Under wet and tussled hair, his small daughter gazed up at him, tears in her own eyes. Frightened in the dark.

"It will be ok now." he cooed, trying to be strong.

"It will all be OK."
