Yay! Awesome job everyone! The entries were all very touching, and it was hard to choose a winner.

1st place...
Is @candlemouse, with their entry Breaking Out.
The entry was exciting, and the grammar, punctuation, and spelling were almost perfect. I loved the story, and the carefully crafted characters, despite the short story.

2nd place ...
Is inky_galaxies.
The story was touching, and overall, a beautiful piece of writing. The story had me hooked, and the way you used the prompt was fabulous. Your grammar, punctuation, and spelling was near perfect. However, I did think it needed a title.

3rd place...
Is SiennaPJS, with her entry, Finding a Way.
It was a heartbreaking story, that seriously, made my heart stop. The way and time you used the prompt gave it meaning, that I thought was stellar. However, the grammar, punctuation, and spelling could have been slightly improved. Overall, great work.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, for being the amazing, extraordinary, overachieving people you are!

Oh yeah...
Beware, after every three contests is a challenge. Good luck!
