SHORT STORY SUBMISSION FOR BOOKAHOLICS' "INFURIATING CHARACTER" COMPETITION.
It was winter. Crimes suddenly increased here in Oristalis. The cold weather up here in the North made it almost impossible for people to leave the warmth of their homes. This only made it easier for hellions to roam around and terrorize homes without many witnesses or usually none at all. Winter in Oristalis was supposed to be warm and cozy. This year, all the usually warm lights were turned off. The people were scared.

White Crystal Butterflies | Wattys 2021 Shortlist | ✔
❖ Interstellar pilot and ex-adventurer Alex Gallegos must keep their team safe on an icy moon as sentient storms threaten to repeat the tragedy that ended their last career. ❖ Everyone in the United Inhabited Solar Systems (for some reason, UIS for short) knows to stay away from Mahaha. The icy moon is notorious for failed probe landings and research missions that end in tragedy: the only people to ever venture to its surface needed rescuing after just two weeks. When a prestigious research group decides they want a turn, they ask Alex Gallegos to lead the team. Perfectly qualified and haunted by their past, Alex accepts, hoping to make up for old mistakes and get just a little further from the earth they've left behind. Two months into the seven-month mission, the team is struggling with discontent, damaged equipment, and blizzards acting less and less like normal weather. As Mahaha moves out of range of help and the storms take on a more malicious character, Alex must face the one foe they could never have prepared for. Mahaha may or may not be alive. ❖❖❖ Complete.
