2025 Writing Challenge - With a new topic each week, we'll see where this story goes. This story was never an idea for a novel or short story, just something pieced together by random topics for a writing challenge to get out of a slump and back into creative mode...so I guess we'll see where it leads... Growing up, Rosie always dreamed of having her own bakery in the little oceanside town she grew up in. Now that she was all grow up and her dream had finally come to fruition, it was the center of her world, she didn't have time for much else... Until one New Year's Eve, when her best friend convinced her to attend the NYE Masquerade Ball. The events of the night leave her mind reeling and she finds herself yearning for more than what her life has become. Will the darkness that haunts her prevent her from taking a chance, or will she let go and take hold of something new?

Tonight is the Twinbucks Masquerade Ball. Nobleman Stanley Twinbucks is hosting a party and political fundraiser for his campaign for a seat on Aizen's council. Unbeknownst to him and his guests, the Sickle Smile Sisters, a girl gang, plan to rob him of his earnings in criminal fashion. Last November, ChampionElcid, a writer and my friend proposed writing a short story for me involving my original characters. This short story was inspired by a dancing sketch that I drew featuring two of my oldest ocs: Rin and Marie. We came up with the idea for a heist story that took place during a masquerade ball. I thought Stanley Twinbucks, an upper class oc who I commissioned, would be the perfect target. After a few months of writing and weeks of editing, this short story is the result. ChampionElcid did most of the writing while I edited this short story. In addition to grammar and narrative progression, I made sure my original characters were properly represented. Honestly, ChampionElcid did a most respected job writing my ocs out, and even improve one of them: Nora Loveguard specifically was written better than how I wrote her first draft. I had a lot of a fun working on this short story with ChampionElcid. They've proven to be creatively talented and receptive. I hope you get a chance to check out their original poems and fanfiction. Their Owl House/Amphibia crossover, "The Owl and the Frog" is most worthy of a read. I'm R-Doll, the creator/artist behind the characters featured in this story. You can check out the ocs featured in this story on my art profile (https://www.deviantart.com/r-doll) along with other stuff. Thank you for reading this story. My friend and I hope this short story impressed you. Give feedback and let us both know how you enjoyed it.
