Short Story Competion

Martians with Superpowers!
By Akshay Prabhu

The people on Mars all have superpowers and they are constantly trying to hide from the Jupiterians. According to the advanced technologies and spies they have, Jupiter is trying to take over the entire solar system and is constantly searching for life on all planets while keeping it on the low so that no effort can be made to suppress them once their “Jupitizer” technology is
finally made. The humans on Earth think they are the only ones in this entire solar system.

The Capacitor
By Max Van Kerkhove 

You would never expect Gordon Conan to do anything even remotely exciting. He hadn’t anyway, but there would be about ten things that would change that.
Gordon was too drool for cool or school, so nothing went very well near him, but he did know things about the universe. He was especially strong in electrical physics. The only thing he couldn’t understand was capacitors, but later on, it would become a strong concept.

Once upon a time, hidden deep in a forest filled with magic and wonder, a kingdom flourished. It was ruled by a king and queen, and sometimes by their two heirs. You may be thinking, “Two heirs?!” But the two heirs were twins, and they would never harm a hair on the other's head. Their names were Anne and Godred. They were destined to be royals. One night at dinner, their aunt, The Witch Evera, came to dinner.

The power of Fuse
By Daniel Paul

In the bustling city of Tokyo, Japan, lived a ten-year-old boy named Yuri Kithuchi, who was interested in electricity more than anything. His mom asked affectionately, 

“Would you like me to enroll you in a physics class, my Electro-boy?”

“Yes, Mom!” he said eagerly.

In online Physics class, he was excited to hear all about fuses. 

“Fuses are mighty objects, able to stop the flow of current in circuits without resistivity, but they only work once”, his teacher explained.

The attack of Terra
By Leila Sunderji

 “Andromeda!” the director calls.. “Come along now. You're not supposed to be here,” She smiles her ever present smile, showing unnaturally white teeth. I back away from her slowly before breaking into a full sprint. “Guards!” she shrieks in her annoyingly high pitched voice. “Child on the loose!” I run away as fast as I can, not knowing or caring where I’m going.

Hailey's Journal
By Ellie Harada

At dinner, Jade was complaining about how hard high school homework is and why she doesn’t get A’s, but she’s never gotten an A. I told her that I get A’s and she told me to shut up because I do easy things in elementary school. Things that even a baby can do. THAT. IS. SO. NOT. TRUE!!! I’m determined to prove her wrong. I decided to do science because That’s what I'm the best at. I’m still trying to decide what type of science. Hmmm……. Oh!
