| One Man For Them Self [Denied] | |

| :(This is it. The last days of the cruel earth, we will not | |
| have to live with painful politics, nor dreadful gas expense, | |
| nor worrying sick about your beloved mother. | |
| Oh, why you ask? They are taking over, they are green like green | |
| grass, blue eyes like the sea, and the size of a giant. | |
| They are the Kragos. They are coming and we will not live to | |
| tell anyone. We as in mankind its self. But us wizards know | |
| these things and shall tell you know. Be prepared because | |
| this;well you will see. | |
| "Another dang crewship?," Pa tiredly says. "Why can't we just | |
| rest!," he blerts out. | |
| "The Kragos don't rest so why should we?," I say. My names Jim, | |
| I live on a farm that | |
| is now like a mashed potato field thanks to these Kragos. | |
| "THERES ONE!," he screams, | |
| "Get the shotgun Jimmy Boy!," he yells. "Yes, Pa.," I calmly | |
| say. Jimmy Boy or Sonny Boy | |
| is the only name I ever get. I open the closet and grab the | |
| rusty antique shotgun. I throw him | |
| the old thing. "GENTLE!" He says. He shoots and grins. "With | |
| this sucker, we are protected!," | |
| he proudly says. Later that night they stop going and Ma gets | |
| the dog house for arguing | |
| about how we will survive. Me and Pa were cold sitting by the | |
| toasty fire and he runs outside | |
| realizing what he had done. He never comes back, nor any sign | |
| of them. I lay in bed all night | |
| waiting and decide to go looking for them. As I go out I see a | |
| little red light from a bush. | |
| I see it as Pa's flashlight stained in blood, and start to run. | |
| As I run a Krago slices my head | |
| off and then it is over. So that is why we should always be | |
| aware of our anger, and espically | |
| it can be one man for themself. And that is what this story is | |
| about. | |
| Notes: This is 329 words. | |

| Application Status: | |
| Denied. | |
| Reason: | |
| The story had almost no plot. No character arcs were experienced | |
| in the story, and we barely got to learn anything about the | |
| characters. This is what I call a "Story Fragment", because it | |
| could be a part of one whole story. Try to avoid these at all | |
| times. There were also a few typos, as always. | |
| You may reapply on Feb. 15. | |
