I'm so happy right now.

YA'LLLLLLLLLL OH MY GOD SOOOOO I entered this story/poem writing thing and like it gets submitted,  if you're chosen it gets edited and put into this Anthology book. I GOT CHOSENNNNNNNN I submitted a story AND a poem. I'd put the link but then you could see my full name and all that... 

This was the feedback  I got btw: Hey, good work! You’ve got a real knack for world building and for showing instead of telling! One thing to watch out for is repeating phrases and description words. As for your poem, we didn’t edit that except to fix the eclipses. Poems are completely

and utterly at the discretion of their author; each word and syllable is purposely placed so we didn’t want to mess any of it up.

But Therese are my entries AFTER editing 

Death of A Demon short story:

Every person is born with a demon inside of them. But one day...one

person’s demon took over and struck their world with chaos. This person’s name

was Alzitar. Now, Alzitar was a fairly abnormal teenager. He was a pretty short

guy standing at about five foot six and had silky black hair. The story of Alzitar

takes place at the school of Guerden, which was named after the principal's great

grandfather.

Everyday, Alzitar’s demon tried to break free and take over in order to

cause chaos in the world. Because of this, his demon was able to escape a little

bit which caused Alzitar to have a few abnormal features. These features

included demon horns as well as pitch black eyes. Due to these features Alzitar

was feared by many of his peers. Though, there were a select trio who were not

scared but instead disturbed by him. This trio of friends made Alzitar feel

worthless. They bullied him everyday, always reminding him that he was ugly,

stupid, and useless, the trio also slammed him into lockers.

One day, Alzitar gets pushed past his limits. Before he left for school his

parents began fighting so he was already in a bad mood on top of tripping on his

way to school. When Alzitar arrives at school the trio of bullies are waiting for

him. Their names are Eyelina, Guten, and Kepta, and they begin bullying him

per-usual. Guten and Kepta snatched Alzitar’s school books and began tearing

pages out. As Eyelina watches them do this she snatches Alzitar’s backpack.

Alzitar stores a journal in which he writes his personal thoughts in this backpack.

Eyelina finds this journal and opens it to the first page and begins reading aloud.

“Dear diary, I think I have a newfound crush on this girl named Rozda.

She’s literally so pret-,” Eyelina gets interrupted as Alzitar tackles her. The entire

trio begins screaming for Alzitar to get off of Eyelina. But Alzitar is blinded as his

demon takes over his body. As Alzitar’s demon is released, his horns grow

larger, demon wings sprout, and claws form. Eyelina then freezes in terror, and

Alzitar slashes her torso. As Guten and Kepta see the site in front of them they

scream in terror. They watch Eyelina’s life leave her eyes, and they freeze at the

site. Alzitar notices this and takes it to his advantage as he lunges at them,

slashing both of their throats.

As this sequence of events occurs, more and more students arrive at the

school. One student named Akrin sneaks into the school and alerts the principal

of what’s happening. The principal then alerts Demon Control, and they send out

the chief as well as a few officers. As Demon Control begins driving to the

school, Alzitar lunges at another student named Jasla. She screams for help, but

no one dares to step in, scared for their own safety, Alzitar hunches over her


then sinks his teeth into her throat, she lets out a slight scream before the life

leaves her eyes as his bite is firm.

Alzitar is still hovering over Jasla’s lifeless body as Demon Control arrives.

The students begin backing away slowly as demon control gets out of their van

and approaches slowly. The laws clearly state that murder is punishable by

death, and if there are more than two known deaths the punishment may be

executed on the scene of the crime. Knowing this, Demon Control sets up a net

with silent drones directly above Alzitar. The chief of Demon Control makes sure

to report that there have been four known deaths. The net is then dropped over

Alzitar, he then tries to escape but instead ends up tangling himself up to the

point that he can’t move anymore. The Demon Control officers then position

themselves around Alzitar and set up their guns. Alzitar is then shot three times,

once in the chest, arm, and torso. Alzitar then screeches and squirms in pain as

bluish-black blood spills from his wounds and he bleeds out. His body then goes

limp as he lays there, demon control moves in and loads Alzitars body as well as

the other four bodies into their van. The chief of Demon Control then reassures

everyone that the danger has been taken care of. As the officers and chief climb

into their van they drive off. The principal then speaks to the students and states

that the danger is gone, and school will be canceled for the next two days.



Demons Inside Of You poem:

The light within life resonates deep within yourself

But some people see not the same

Other people may see this as a sign of insanity

Only because you are not what they want you to be

They may hate you just for something you simply can’t

control

It messes with your head

When you’re lying in bed

All you can remember is the words they said to you

The words leak into you with demons attached

They corrupt your brain

Until you go what they know as “insane”

These demons cause you immense pain

They begin controlling everything you do

As well as everything you say

But only until one day...

There's nothing left of what you used to be

The old self you used to know Is now dead

No one knows who you are anymore

Not even yourself

All you are now is a shell of someone you used to be

A shell that's now filled with demons

You are no  longer alive 

All because of the words they said to you

Those words that they all thought were harmless

They never thought they would leave you lifeless

Now...lifeless with demons controlling your every move
