Photographers Contest

Tsukiko once believed in love—until betrayal shattered her world. Now, she guards her heart behind a wall of thorns, focusing solely on her rising career. Love is a risk she refuses to take again. Haruki, a nature photographer haunted by his past, never expected to be drawn to someone like Tsukiko. Yet, from the moment their paths crossed, he found himself captivated—not just by her beauty but by the quiet strength beneath her guarded exterior. What begins as reluctant companionship slowly grows into something deeper. Through fleeting moments, stolen glances, and unspoken words, Haruki chips away at Tsukiko’s defenses. But their love is tested by ghosts of the past—his lingering guilt, her unhealed wounds, and a truth that threatens to break them apart. Like a flower pushing through the cracks of a hardened earth, love begins to bloom again. But can they nurture it, or will it wither under the weight of old scars? A heartfelt journey of love, loss, and healing, Blooming Through the Thorns is a story about finding the courage to embrace love again—even when the past threatens to pull you back.

Unfortunately, the world never gave them time to process their complex emotions as things change everyday that seek to not just kill them but destroy their very homeland. This is a world that is barely functioning due to the illusion of hope! The more ignorant you are, the more free you are but power comes with responsibility. Knowledge comes with the dangerous realization that the future is bleak and despair is around the corner. Eugene found himself born in a world that ‘Awakened’ as they called it, humans devolved from Apex Predators centuries ago and are barely cattle for the ever evolving beasts and monsters. Two things saved the humans from extinction, and it wasn't their knowledge or weaponry; they are all useless against intelligent beasts that can do better. What saved them was some benevolent beasts that took them as servants, slaves and some as cattle for rearing. The second thing that saved them was the appearance of Gateway that led to various realms in unknown dimensions that aids them to make a pact with willing beasts. They finally gained strength and power and huddled around Gateways and built Settlements. Eugene found himself in a race against time as he dived into an unknown dimension, filled with mystery and danger that might have the answers everyone desire.

Mankind's reign came to an end as AIs now rule the world purging it from humans. Those even gained consciousness reducing the chance for humanity to live as they used to. This upheaval happened because of renown scientist who led the creation of a new type of robot during his researches on artificial intelligences. These were released to kill humans when, in December 2132, this scientist made a speech directed at mankind. Is there is a chance for everything to return to normal after such events? Well, I would say that there is still Hope and it is all it takes.

Elaine is an 18 year old teenager with autism who wrote a script for the sequel to Star Trek (a reboot by J.J Abrahams). She won a national contest. The script was so charming that it achieved three things: J.J Abrahams loved it since it caught the young woman's attention, making her want to come back to direct the film; the cast of the reboot trilogy returns enthusiastic about Elaine's story, and the production company wants to negotiate with Elaine to sell them her script and work with them. But Elaine wasn't planning all that! All she wanted was to use the money she earned to pay for her college studies in astronomy, but she also had a plan to be a professional science fiction screenwriter. If she didn't manage to become an astronomer, will she choose to be an astronomer or overcome her fears of being with crowds (a symptom of autism), interact with the real world and manage to be both?

Who wants to become president? What if people's thoughts could overthrow a dictator? What if fire could cleanse a country of corruption? What if a revolution could start with a single photograph? The story is about how people can try to overthrow a dictator in a rather unusual, unconventional way. After all, any idea manifests itself at a certain and designated time. Ideas - whose time has come - have enormous power. People have known and used magic since time immemorial. All magical rituals are based on supernatural, immaterial forces, incomprehensible and therefore not yet recognized by science. Magical and paranormal phenomena and abilities have much in common, since they use forces and factors that cannot be explained scientifically. All living beings and people are not just material bodies. There is something in them other than matter, and therefore they are able to perceive what is beyond the physical world. Almost always, in order for something fresh, new and better to appear, the rotten old must be destroyed and burned. Fire is a symbol of change, transformation and rebirth. The element of Fire functions at the center of all things - everything came from it and everything will return to it.

When the Veilfall shattered Earth's reality, humanity was thrust into the Tenfold Crucible—a cosmic contest where survival means ascension, and failure means annihilation. Alongside other chosen races, they must conquer a system of ten realms, each deadlier than the last, filled with unfathomable horrors and merciless trials. Yet, humanity’s greatest enemy isn’t the monstrous entities lurking within the realms. It is the darkness within themselves—the greed, ambition, and treachery that breed conflict and betrayal. As alliances fracture and rivalries deepen, the question remains: Will humanity rise together, or will they destroy themselves long before the Crucible ends?

WSA 25 ENTRY ******** The world I knew was ordinary or at least bearable—until it wasn’t. I was just another corporate drone, drowning in a dead-end job I hated, stuck in a life that felt like it would never change. That is, until the mages decided to pick me. Every ten years, the mages choose ten people from across the faction—ordinary people like me—and thrust them into the Beast Games, a sadistic contest where only the strongest survive. The rules are simple: tame the fiercest creatures that world has to offer, fight to the death, and outlast every other contestant. Fail, and you die. Succeed, and you get to return home. But nothing there was as simple as it seemed. Thrown into a land where beasts rip through flesh without hesitation, and other contestants see me as nothing more than prey, I’m forced to rely on a mysterious system that offers me quests and tasks to survive. This world doesn’t play by any rules, least of all the ones we know. I will survive and I will find the ones who made this game and when I find them, I’ll show them what happens when you mess with someone who has nothing left to lose.
