Time to spruce up the Writing Corner with something cool! :]

For those of you who have not done this before, here's the deal. Read the beginning that I have posted here, and write a small continuation to it (no more than 500 words). PM your entries to me, and I will post them anonymously when voting time comes. Judges will cast a vote for first, second, and third place. Each rank is assigned a point value: 10 for first, 7 for second, and 4 for third.

When voting time ends, the story with the most points will be added to the first post as the "real" continuation to the story. The next round begins, and everyone must write another 500-words-or-less continuation of that.

There are seven rounds (hopefully). Whoever has the highest score at that time is the winner.

You may sign up as a contestant as well as a judge, but if you do, you cannot vote for your own story. That's, like, lame to the max, yo.

Round one ends June 28, 2010, at 12 PM CDT. Have your entry submitted to me before that time OR PERISH >O

The story so far:

They had been traveling for a while now, and they were tired.

"How much longer?" the younger of the two asked.

"Soon. Very soon," the elder answered. "Just over that hill."

Slowly they plodded along; their goal was in sight. It was all they could do not to collapse from fatigue. As they reached the top, they stared blankly at the scene that lay before them.

"No way..."

RE: Another Unfinished Page (writing contest)

Shoyru, you just made me laugh SO hard right there, I hope you realize. XD

Way to spell definitely wrong and request to be a judge in the same post...
 
RE: Another Unfinished Page (writing contest)

Crystal_Hikara, you can edit your posts, but you can't hide from the truth!! : O

RE: Another Unfinished Page (writing contest)

Yeah, PM PMJ all entries.

dmaster out.
 
RE: Another Unfinished Page (writing contest)

Usually I have nothing to do with these contests because they're normally too much for me to handle. But, out of principle, I'll join in. My only gripe, though, is that the continuations have to be within the confines of 500 words (for the record, I usually do a lot longer...and, I really mean, A LOT), but then it's understandable, given the conditions.
 
***A CHALLENGER APPROACHES***

Also: Does it have to be about Pokemon, or is the author free to pick any kind of subject matter?
