Old-world locomotives have been replaced by genetically engineered ironclad women whose one job and only purpose is to pull and push trains.

Madeline, a small shunting locomotive, often dreams about life outside her small train yard. One day, her wish is granted, and with hope in her heart, she rides the rails to the East Coast to participate in The RailCo RailShow. This exciting event is where only the best locomotives battle it out for the exclusive Princess Contract. She hopes to win and save her train yard from going bankrupt. 

Along the way, she meets and befriends other engines and learns about herself through this adventure. However, life is full of ups and downs, and Madeline often gets more than she bargains for as she prepares for the competition. But with a can-do attitude, she can come out on top.

Can Madeline save her train yard? Or does fate have other plans for our little duckling?

| 𝟳𝘅 𝗙𝗘𝗔𝗧𝗨𝗥𝗘𝗗 ·|| HUNGER GAMES x CINDER || ONC 2023 Honorable Mention Amidst the escalating unrest between the windborne utopian city of Lighthaven and its seedy, oppressed underbelly Fumedge, the Grand Duke of Lighthaven, Lucius Sextus, comes up with an ingenious solution. To provide much-wanted respite from the brewing conflict, and achieve the apparent-if-temporary unity, he organizes Gaslight Trials - a highly entertaining panem-et-circenses combat event in the Pits. The combatants may use all steam and thaumaturgy powered augmentations at their disposal, and there is only one rule: defeat, or be defeated. The reward for the last one standing? A chance to start their life anew. A brass key to the city of Lighthaven with a luxurious mansion to call their own within, as well as an aeroship to command. When eighteen-year-old Veda Igglesden steps forward to take her timeworn adoptive father's place in the fight, she might as well be signing her death-sentence. With her eyes fully set on the prize, act-first-think-later Veda must harness the power of technology to try and win for her Papa Otto. Decades of breathing in the toxic air of Fumedge did a number on the old inventor's lungs, and being able to live in the air-filtered Lighthaven would sure come in handy right about now. A high-flying adventure full of gadgetry and intrigue; a pleasing blend of steampunk and postapocalyptic. See Veda unravel the mysterious ploy behind the game's organization, and uncover the truth about her secret origins. Can she cope both with the trials of physical and intellectual prowess, as well as with the trials of life itself: those of love, loss and regret? © 2023 EvelynHail Exclusively on Wattpad Based on prompt 49! Which is (I shan't leave ye hanging :P): "Master the rules of the game until you can play it better than they can." Michael Scott, "The Sorceress" Get ready for steampunkish tinkering,

Using ancient tools crafted by the elves long ago, humans had built mega cities to protect themselves from the onslaught of demons. Over the years, humans would find more of these barriers and with them, they created Inns between the cities allowing rest stops without worry, but after a breakthrough of reverse engineering the barriers, much smaller towns and villages populate the lands. Thus, ushering in a safer world outside of the north. Lilith, a cursed human, works as a carrier who takes on jobs delivering all sorts of mail all around the world, traversing these dangers. Carriers more times than not have the capability to defend themselves, be it with physical strength or magical strength. For Lilith, that is not the case. Although there is an upside or two to being a cursed, there are far more negatives than positives. One day, when looking for her next job to take, she came across one that was pushed to the side. It required a delivering all the way to the north, something no carrier would ever dare to do as the stories of what was beyond the Scar scared even the strongest away. Are those stories fake? Why have the demons slowly disappeared in the south? Although it was always worth to take caution, and even if the roads may not be safe to travel by yourself, it made people wonder what was truly up there. If there was any danger to worry about after all these years. The story follows the carrier Lilith and her journey to the north to deliver a package, yet the package is only the beginning as she discovers how the north became such a barren landscape and learns what she is and her true capabilities.
