Another Contest to help me improve my writing.

Basically this is the same as my last contest. I want you to write me the beginning of a story. Only difference is that this time you can make it as long as you want. If you want to write a single paragraph and leave it up to me to finish then go ahead. Or it could be 5,6 or 7 paragraphs, i don't care. Give me as much detail or as little as you want. I basically just want a challenge. The other difference is that this time im not asking for fantasy. I am more prone to picking fantasy but hell, if you write something amazing that just happens to be a romance or science fiction or anything else than i might pick that as well. So the rules...

- Must have good Grammar. I know that no one is perfect so as long as i know that you tried then you will be okay.
- Any genre, or length goes.
- Please try and comment on at least one other story in the contest just to be decent.
- And of course, have fun. This isn't anything serious so don't feel bad if your story isn't picked.

  2. Hero
    Being a hero means being alone. This I know above all else. Being a hero means death. Death to your friends, death to your family, and death to those you fight. The minute that is no longer true, you cease to be a hero, you c

    I thought there was nothing I could do to stop her. I was so sure of it at the time. It wasn't until years later that I realized that I was the only person who could have: but I didn't. How could I have made such a grievous m

  • Loving him
    She opened her forest eyes, tears sliding down her smooth cheeks in one long stream of grief and heartache. She just longed to see him, one last time. A twig snapped behind her, making her turn her head, bronze curls tossing.
