This short story is for the contest 'Planet or Plastic'.
It's 2054.
The world is no longer as you knew it.
You were all too focused on developing nations, creating robots and new world records.
Maybe, you missed out on something important? Something greater than robots and nations?
You ignored the shouts and cries of the Earth as it drowned you into its huge waves. It cracked and shivered, but you ignored it.
Now you shall pay the price.

Of Ice and Snow
Lily is a snow witch with powerful magic and a quick temper. Not the best combination. But she keeps to herself, and the few people she lets get close know she has a good heart, and that's enough for her. She doesn't need any drama in her life. Except she never knows what to expect from her next-door neighbor, who is a mad scientist. Then there's her meddling family back at the North Pole. Minor irritations, but they may or may not trigger her blizzard-inducing rage from time to time, resulting in out-of-season snowstorms, snowbound towns, and confused meteorologists worldwide. Good thing she has a fairy godmother. Or is it? When a forbidden paranormal romance brings secret magic and an unspoken curse to light, the weight of the world lands on Lily's shoulders. Break the curse, save the world. Fail... And she'll destroy everything.Complete
