I held a pet giveaway where the entry was a short story about the pet they were applying for, I want to commemorate my favourites!
The winner of Emended the midnight Yuni
"Emended was a runt when he was born. All of the stronger unicorns made fun of him for being so tiny and fragile. Every day he went to the fields in order to play with the other unicorns and make some friends, but he'd always end up crying because no one wanted him to join in their game. The unicorns thought little of him. They'd not only exclude him from playtime, but from meals, school, and even chores. They thought he was incapable of doing the simplest of tasks.
One day, Emended looked at his dull self in the mirror and he realized that he had potential. He polished his horn extra shiny that day, packed his lunch and school supplies, and sprinted past all of the other unicorns in order to get to school. They were all amazed! How was the weakling so fast? Once he was at school, Emended sat in the front row of his least favourite class- astronomy. He thought that learning about the sun was the most boring thing in the universe! When the bell rang, and all the seats were full, the teacher said, "Okay unis, today we're learning about the moon, stars, meteor showers and the planets!" Emended groaned. He hated this class. The teacher explained that the moon cycle, and surprisingly, Emended was captivated. He took notes and listened attentively for the WHOLE class. The teacher assigned homework and it was time for chemistry.
Emended couldn't concentrate on chemistry. Who could when there was a world out there that they could explore? He sprinted home after Chemistry ended- skipping french and gym. When he got home, he opened his laptop and researched the moon some more. His eyes seemed to have stars in them while he was researching. He went to sleep that night with a smile on his face, and dreamed of the moon.
When he woke up for school the next day, he ran to his astronomy class and told his teacher ALL about the universe, paying particular attention to the moon and stars. His teacher told him about astronomers, and astronauts. He quickly decided that he wanted to see the moon for himself.
Starting that day, Emended studied and studied, and got straight A's all throughout junior and senior year. He got accepted into university and did his undergrad in astronomy and then went to NASA for astronaut school.
