This Goodbye by blue___22 with an average of 51! Congratulations, 7 points have been added to your rank!

Judges:

"Even as the shortest entry, this one-shot is still heartfelt. I crave to see more of the characters' backstories."

"Overall, this one-shot was written incredibly. The descriptions of the emotions were very well done and felt realistic. However, it was quite short and I think the one-shot would have worked better if it was longer."

"Enjoyable, but I found that her wording was rather awkward."

Coming in second place is,

Midnight Sanctuary by UnisonRaider with an average of 54! Congratulations, 10 points have been added to your rank!

"Midnight Sanctuary is a wonderfully detailed one-shot. The cliffhanger is really dramatic!"

"The descriptions, particularly of the moon in the beginning, were done very well. However, the plot seemed slightly cliché."

"I liked UnisonRaider's a lot!"

Kūkā by ImberLapis with an average of 55! Congratulations, 15 points have been added to your rank!

"Kūkā is sweet, simplistic story packed into a one-shot; the POV change to Katz's POV in the middle seemed a bit off for me, however."

"One of the most enjoyable aspects of this one-shot was the wide variation of different words used in it. However, there were some grammatical errors."

"Imber's was good! However, characterisation could use a little tweaking--it was close."

[HONORABLE MENTION]

Where I live, There are Rainbows by espeonrocks.

"This one-shot certainly hooked me from the very start. However, the ending was predictable."

"There was clearly a lot of research that had gone into this one-shot, which was nice. However, the plot overall was slightly cliche."

"I felt like if the character could use a bit more development, the background would have been good."
