    The young girl huddled as far into the corner of the dark, confined, claustrophobic hole as she could; shrinking away from the unbearable darkness, from the void of nothingness that made this miniscule hiding place seem teeming with monsters and nightmares. Small sweaty hands were pressed tightly to her ringing ears, but her head still throbbed with gunshots and screams. Images of death burned the insides of her eyelids, leaving her breathless. Abruptly struck with the harsh reality of her utter and complete desolation, a cold, and unnervingly empty silence filled her soul. It kidnapped her starry eyed spirit and chained it down, leaving in its dreadful wake an unwanted orphan; broken, yet hell-bent on survival. Jyn Erso.

    Superb and gripping use of the lovely quote, showing how a life-changing moment forged Jyn into a fierce survivor and into someone who felt shattered on the inside [face_thinking] =D=

    Indeed very gripping and intriguing. And most important, it´s a Jyn Erso story! Hurrah to that!

    A powerful, profound take on one of the most important father/daughter relationships in Star Wars. Wonderful use of the prompt. Thank you for writing for the Mulan Challenge!

    A powerful story that goes to show you don't need a ton of words to make something beautiful and impactful! =D=

    Great job!

    One quick thing, when you are doing a challenge, it's usually best to put what your prompt was in the post (so in this case, your quote). If you won't want people to know before they read the story, you can put it at the bottom or under a spoiler tag.

    Wow, but this really was proof that you don't need many words to write something poignant and heavy hitting, I agree with what every other commenter has said! Because Jyn really is a flower that blooms in adversity, and her 'starry eyed spirit' will return again. Beautiful job with this! Thanks for sharing! =D=
