Hello, I'm holding a story writing contest, It's quite complicated so this could take a while to explain. But basically I'm going to start with a story introduction and then everyone can comment with the next 400 (roughly) words of the story. I will then pick a winner (if there are too many entrants the winner will be picked randomly) of the next part and post up the whole story so far. The winner will receive a llama and a watch as well as being mentioned in the journal entry. We will then hold another contest for the next part of the story continously until I feel the story is complete. After every 5/6 winners I will post the story in chapters on my page (littlestar14) with links and mentions to the winners in the description and the title name 'group story' (or something along the lines) So that people know that it is not my own work. Please read the rules before entering and ask any questions you may have in the comments. Thank You.
RULES!
-entry must not exceed 450 words (this will be checked)
-entry must not be below 200 words
-entry must be suitable for all readers (no mature content- this will be checked for before a winner is picked)
-entry must follow on from the entry before it (In this case the Story starter. So that the story makes sense and flows along nicely)
-you can send as many entry's as you wish
-all entries must be sent before the closing date - if less than 3 have been sent before the closing date the closing date will be extended

!!To enter please write the next part of the story in the comment section of this journal entry- Do not send to the SixWordStories Submission link.!!

Good luck everyone!

Story Starter: (Please comment with the next part of the story)


I enter the dark and dingy room. I cannot see anything around me, and for all I know I am completely alone. I shiver as the reality of what I am about iwriteatnight.deviantart.com/b… do hits me. Once this is done there is no going back. Nothing will ever be the same. The lights turn on and blind my eyes. I turn around but still cannot see anything as the brightness stuns my eyes.
'I knew you'd eventually come' A voice says from in front of me. I do not know this voice but yet know it must be gavin's as he is the one from who the note was signed by.
'I had no choice, you wouldn't leave me alone' My voice quiver’s in fear. I feel so small. I don’t know if I can do this. I have two choices, either go through with the plan, or join them. I don’t know what scares me most, but I have to make my decision now.

Closing date: 6th June 2014

I enter the dark and dingy room. I cannot see anything around me, and for all I know I am completely alone. I shiver as the reality of what I am about do hits me. Once this is done there is no going back. Nothing will ever be the same. The lights turn on and blind my eyes. I turn around but still cannot see anything as the brightness stuns my eyes.

'I knew you'd eventually come' A voice says from in front of me. I do not know this voice but yet know it must be gavin's as he is the one from who the note was signed by.

'I had no choice, you wouldn't leave me alone' My voice quiver’s in fear. I feel so small. I don’t know if I can do this. I have two choices, either go through with the plan, or join them. I don’t know what scares me most, but I have to make my decision now.

My entry:

    With a quivering voice, I ask him, “If… I do it, will you leave my family alone?”

    “Of course,” his voice answering me. “I’m a man of my words.”

    Devil of his words, I’m correcting in heart. Very well then, it’s time to announce my choice. “Alright then. I’ll give it.”

    I’ll execute this plan. No matter what happen.

    As the words slip out my mouth, the blinding light fades and I finally can see my opponent. To be honest, I’m surprised. Instead of some kind of ghost-devil I expected before, in front of me standing a man. He wears a neat and old looking suit, pretty much like a businessman. And, no matter how much I feel sick of this being, I got to admit he has a charming face. Pale, but still charming.

    “Very nice,” Gavin once again speak up with a smirk on his face. “After so much aids I gave you and your friends, it just natural that you should pay. Moreover to suddenly break the contract like that after you are the one who summon me. Devils don’t like it when you waste their time, you know.”

    The smirk on his face reminded me of all horrible thing I did to start this. Yes… If only we were not such a crybaby, we wouldn’t dare try to summon such being to protect us from the bully. But… we just can’t stand it. We hate those bully as much as the pain they gave us. But it doesn’t mean we want them die. Not when we are the one ‘killing’ them. As soon as we realized our fault, we decided to break the contract we made to prevent more victim down.

    But… the task given isn’t completed yet, he said. Breaking the contract half-way would be taboo. And in return, he want us to pay with our soul. Two of my friends has paid theirs, and now it suppose to be my turn.

    “Let us begin, then.” And with those words, Gavin approach closer to me. Something glowing gently on the floor catch my attention, and I noticed a magic circle drawn on the floor beneath me, placing me right on the center.


Right here, right now?!
