    DarthIshtar: No worries about killing characters. I think the body count stands at only one, atleast for now.

    IrishEyedJedi: You're very welcome. It was really fun to read and write, wasn't it?

    Twich: Humble thanks to our host! This seems to be brining the "generations" together, which is cool. I almost never go to the Beyond boards, but curiosity, and this challenge, got me there. Thank you!

    Well, I jumped right in with both feet but certainly didn't do a very long response. In any case, the finished product can be found on the Beyond thread, here's the 1st paragraph:

    As she wandered down the hallway, she clutched the only weapon that she could find and prayed that none of the blaster bolts dancing from around the corner would find their mark in her. Just how did I let him talk me into this? Mara Jade scowled as she ducked a wild shot. Karrde had a lot of explaining to do. When he said ?Let?s see just how good your reflexes are now.? Mara had expected a simple sparring session with some of the crew. She hadn?t expected to wake up in a supply closet without her weapons. After she managed to hotwire the door controls and get out of the closet but she hadn?t expected to start making her way down the cooridor and find her crewmates taking potshots at her!

    This is a great idea Twich! I'm glad you thought of it! There's so many different directions you could take this in. It might even inspire me to write something :eek:

    Shadowolf Great job! That's a fantastic way to see that sentence! Yay!

    Jennifer_LynYou are more than welcome. I've enjoyed checking out the other boards too. :)

    SapphireBloom Better watch it...it's addictive. The plot bunny'll be on your back (worse than any monkey) and not let you go.

    Okay. It's not THAT bad. But it's a lot of fun! LOL!

    And if everyone likes it, maybe next week we could do another sentence? Mush and gush since it's been requested... Sound good?

    Well, here's my try at it!

    ------

    As she wandered down the hallway, she clutched the only weapon she could find and prayed that none of the blaster bolts dancing from around the corner would find their mark in her. The gaffe stick was heavy in Beru?s hands as she inched down the dark hallway, the stone floor icy on her bare feet. Her breath was loud in her ears as she looked around, owl-eyed in the dark Tatooine night. The sound of the Tuskens in the next room reached her ears, and her grip turned her knuckles ashen on the gaffe stick. Behind her, she heard Luke whimper and clutch her skirts, and she crouched down next to him.

    Okay...everyone ready for some mush n gush in the challenge?? Let's see what we can do. ;)

    Here's this week's sentence:

    As he held her chin in his hands and looked into those beautiful tear filled eyes, he felt a tremor run through his entire body and knew what he had to do.

    Hope that's well enough along those mushy gushy lines. :) We'll continue along in the same threads.

    Here they are:

    I love mush. Can't do it but I love to read it.

    Quick question. Are posts for the prior week's sentence still acceptable to post?

    Who Would Have Thought


    As he held her chin in his hands and looked into those beautiful tear filled eyes, he felt a tremor run through his entire body and knew what he had to do.
    Leaving would be the hardest thing. Funny how life can play such cruel jokes, especially when it comes to matters of the heart. Their love was still knew and fresh, and every day they discovered new things to fall in love with. He had never felt this way about anyone. The feeling was so strong and intense it could overwhelm him at times, but then she could always overwhelmed him every time she flashed that wonderful smile. He would miss that smile.

    Princess_Arulmozhi and Lola64thanks for reminding me. (Sorry I forgot to mention that!) I figure that it's okay to leave the previous challenges open since I never really mentioned a due date or anything. If someone wanders into the thread, then they can have their choice of first sentences. ;) Everyone think that's okay?

    Love that people like the mush n gush. :)And a very nice first post IrishEyedJedi! I love that pairing. *sigh*

    Well I certainly didn't expect to crank this out as quickly as I did...but then, short challenges I think I can do! :)

    Here's the first paragraph of Daydreams:
    As he held her chin in his hands and looked into those beautiful tear-filled eyes, he felt a tremor run through is entire body and knew what he had to do. Without breaking eye contact he leaned down and gently pressed his lips to hers. She leaned into the gentle kiss and ?
