6. Why are you here? It’s raining.” She looked the eyes of her lover she loves with sorrow. Her lover who also drenched in rain, stood in front of her like a unwavering mountain. “What else could I do but let the rain drench me to share that sorrow…” Her black eyes widened with the answer.
She launched into her younger lover’s arms for some warm. And now her heart was at ease.

9. Every century as part of the Enlightenment Festival, a member from each species is selected to set off on a quest for the Enlightenment stone. The one that finds it guarantees it's species a position of power for the next 100 years. Humans have never won the Quest, and therefore, the human species treats the game as nothing more than a cruel human sacrifice. They thus pick someone out of the poorest ranks, to keep from losing anyone deemed important. But what happens, when this castaway wins the contest.

13. They looked at the gray, bleak sky outside the small window while sitting in the tiny room atop a tall black tower. The door was bolted shut, and the window was too far away and dangerous to even try, for they were also chained to the ground with a weight too big to break. Trust, they've tried hundreds of times. So, all they could do was wait for a savior, as they sat trapped for months on the cold, hard ground, of the tower room.

“How? The city looks just fine to me.”

(submitted by TheEmeraldGirl23)

15. “One year,” their CEO said. “One year to make a hit that will take the world by storm. Or else." Their CEO made a cutting motion through his throat. One year to create the world's biggest hit song, or else they'll be kicked. No pressure. No pressure, whatsoever. Yeah.
