||🥉THIRD PLACE IN THE BERRY PANCAKE AWARDS - SCIENCE FICTION CATEGORY||

During WWII, two 14 year old kids named Willa and Schaffel, attempt to escape the traumatic events they've experienced...

Willa has been locked up by the Nazis for years, after surviving a devastating bomb which roared through Warsaw in 1939, killing her mother. Ever since she was used for her unexplainable powers to win against the allies.

Schaffel, living an isolated and blissful life on Actaeon, a planet inside a hidden solar system beside Earth is unaware of any tragedy, other than being bullied for being different. Until, his planet is attacked, and Schaffel loses everything he once held dear to him. But when he suspiciously wakes up to be on Earth afterwards, the place he once treasured from his books, he learns it's very different than it seems. That is, until he meets Willa. 

Schaffel and Willa together uncover the evil forces threatening Earth and Human existence, along with ugly truths and secrets they never knew.

Hybrid: The Awakening by DuNdUnDUN2006

Nobody expects something supernatural to happen to them. Those kind of things only happened in comics. Fairy Tales. Unrealistic dreams that you'd fall asleep to, silently wishing for them to come true. At least, that was what these three teenagers thought. It turns out that there is so much more to their simple universe than they ever could have imagined. After each finding a strange alien artifact, the teens are suddenly thrusted into an intergalactic war. Alien species everywhere are trying to hunt down the most powerful weapons in the galaxy. And they are the ones in possession of it. When they run into a girl that claims to be from another planet, the three kids learn about the power given to them and the responsibilities that come along with it. Instantly, they are the most popular people in the galaxy. And for once, popularity couldn't feel more like a curse. Fighting grudges, fear, and distrust, the Chosen humans must travel to the one place on Earth where they might be safe. And with strange new powers, the teenagers struggle to live in the unfamiliar world they thought they knew so well.

The Children of Frevallion by Bravebear93

Seven worlds. One crumbling connection. Margot Peregrine never thought she'd have to bear the weight of an ancient legacy, let alone the responsibility of protecting the fragile bond between seven worlds. But when the Penumbra-a mysterious force holding these worlds together-begins to collapse, she's thrust into a hidden war fought in the shadows. Her family is at the heart of it all, bound by secrets that could destroy everything if they fall into the wrong hands. With her siblings Frida and Miles by her side, Margot must navigate her newfound powers, outrun those who hunt them, and uncover the truth behind the Vigilum Aleronis before the portals between worlds close for good. The fate of the universe rests in the hands of a girl who never asked to be its protector.

Out There by sriauka

There is only one village left. All the others were prone to destruction. The war was long and scarring. Everyone fought, but nobody won. Bombs were dropped, guns were fired, until no one remained. Except for a small group of people who hid away in the Nebraska prairies. They grew and re populated after the deadly war was over. A small village sprouted and streets began to fill, but the world was still small. Still only one village remained. For Cameron, there was no hope of building a new world. Her village was the last village and that was where humanity would end. The world would not get better. It would never get better. But when her family and friends disappear and more and more people vanish every night. She will have to choose where her allegiance lies. With her village or herself. What happens if she chooses the wrong one? ************** "How does one create suspense just by using words?" - JEMIMAHS236 "Wow... I LOVE IT" - kczchik-

Away with the Fairies by SilviaKrpatova

☆ONC 2021 Honourable Mention and Shortlister☆ ☆One of Round Two Top Five Winners☆ ☆Multiple times featured☆ ☆☆☆ ☆This is a story about H. Ch. Andersen, about how he became a writer and why most of his stories are so sad and melancholic. Also, about why he never found real love... Yes, that's what I read about him (among other things)-- he kept falling in love with unatteinable women. My story portrays Hans Christian Andersen as a young, fourteen-years-old boy. It's set in Odense, Denmark, in the late summer of 1818-- soon after Hans' mother, a poor washerwoman, remarried (two years after his father's death) and shortly before he was sent to a school for poor children where he had to support himself. Where he became, to be able to afford his schooling, first a weaver's, then a tailor's apprentice, a singer, an actor and finally, once his excellent soprano voice changed, a writer. Hans and Louise, his (fictional) step-sister, seek refuge from a summer storm in an old shed. There, they meet Rosalind, a lost Flower Fairy. When they decide to help her find the Butterfly Fairy boy she loves and intends to marry, she takes them into a fantastical world of Terra Sonalis, her home. A land of dreams populated by fairies, goblins, elves, mermaids, talking animals... All those mysterious creatures that fuelled Andersen's imagination for the rest of his life. ☆☆☆

The Joy Thief by YolondaKay

Willa stayed in her bed when a spaceship landed near her home and the interstellar invaders she calls Ironhides abducted children from her neighborhood--her sister among them. Now, along with her best friend, Isaiah, Willa will risk a journey to the Earth colony on the planet Nexpernon to bring her sister home. He has no name, only a rank, Fifth. He's been kept in the dark about most details of his mission. But a few directives hum in his mind: take all essence of joy the humans have in them, and then leave them where they fall. His job is to protect his Commander, and to ensure the portal his kind uses to get to Earth remains a secret forever. Thrown together in a vehement, unfamiliar situation, Willa and Fifth should hate and fear each other. But when Willa kills his Commander and Fifth deserts his unit, their survival depends on trusting one another. And their ability to work together might be the only hope to restore joy to all of humanity.

where ghosts wander || ONC 2022 by nadunawrites

Lila Unwinter is not a very talented witch; she mostly has a lot of ambition, determination, and enough spite to last her a few hundred years. How else was she supposed to survive the past sixteen years, after she lost both her best friend and her family over something she can barely even remember now? They're not dead, of course, but for all that they care about her, she might as well be. But then her magic decides to send her home for lunch break one day, and she not only finds out about a curse that's taken hold of her way back when she was only six years old, but also reconnects with her childhood friend (who's considerably less alive now). A series of events unfolds that may well redefine Lila's perception of both love and magic itself. Featuring: way too many ghosts, the town at the Edge of the world, knife and sword-wielding girls, sapphic childhood-friends-to-lovers, ghost kitties, weird magic and magical creatures, and a certain three-headed dog. ________________ an entry for the open novella contest 2022
