I received ONE entry, so instead of voting for one fic or another, you may rate this one on a scale of 1-10. The author is allowed to vote. Vote's will NOT be public. To the author, THANK YOU. The poll will be open for a week. Also, the author will be allowed to choose the theme for the July/August fanfic contest. Below is the entry.



Zelex had a blank expression as he looked out his window as he thought of his recent decision. He promised his mother that he’d never let anything bad happen to their station. He never intended to keep the promise long, only for about a year or two, and then he’d quit and trade everything except their three space pods. Those were classics and he planned on keeping those. His father built them by scratch. But his gambling debts were getting so high. A loan shark said he’d take Eon, and pay off all his debts.
When he sold Eon, he could start fresh and not have to worry about another loan shark. The other slaves would miss Eon, but he had to do what was best for Zelex, not the station. The station was getting old, and taking care of others wasn’t his specialty. Eon’s loyalty wasn’t enough for Zelex to keep him.
The ground began to rumble.
A loud boom filled the air. Zelex looked outside the window and he saw an explosion, coming from his garage. One of his space pods was flying out. It looks like it was flying out of orbit.
“Eon! Eon!” he yelled.
No one answered. Eon wouldn’t steal, from Zelex, he was too loyal. Zelex looked through the cabinet drawers franticly and he could find the keys to his garage. Eon was the only one who carried the keys around, but he wouldn’t steal from him. Or would he?
Zelex ran out into the hallway. Pert and a few others were in shock from the rumbles.
“Eon!”
“Eon left the house about an hour ago” Pert told him.
Zelex ran out to his garage. The pod that was flying was flying out of orbit, he couldn’t see who was driving it, but all hints lead up to Eon.
‘That little punk is going to pay for this’ Zelex thought. He picked up is phone and dialed the galaxy police.
“Hello” someone on the line answered.
“I need help; I have a runaway, who just stole a space pod”

Vita kicked the vending machine. It just ate $3 dollars. She’d already wasted too much money; she might not be able to get home without getting in a lot of trouble. Mistwater, Nevada was a dump more of a dump than it was back in Michigan and running away here was beginning to show it’s true roots, it was stupid plan. Starting new was more like starting trouble. There was something else, funny going on. It was too calm outside; there were no animals running around or a breeze. Vita heard like a whistling sound, similar to what you hear when a teapot is steaming. She looked up but didn’t see anything. Vita walked towards the pool. Maybe letting her feet sit in it would make her feel better.
The pool was probably the only thing that was actually clean in the whole place. The night was warm, and so was the breeze. Vita bent down and dipped her hand in the water. It was kind of cold, but not too cold. The whistling sound was getting louder. Vita looked up and she thought she saw something but she didn’t.
A huge breeze from the sky pushed down on Vita. A tidal wave splash came from the pool and Vita lost her balance and fell in. Vita let out a scream.
Her arm hit something, hard that was cold like metal, and a metal shell appeared. The metal looked rusted like someone left it out in the rain. A door opened and someone rolled out. Vita tired to get away but the door hooked onto her pants and she ended up tearing off the pocket.
Little did she know this way really an alien and he was about to change her whole life.
The person who came out of the shell grabbed onto Vita. They were bringing Vita down.

Dang, I feel bad for whoever wrote this. I got lazy and didn't finish my edit on time. :(
 
I started one too but I didn't submit because it really wasn't what I'd call a 'summer blockbuster'...I want to do the next one if the topic is good.

As for the story its interesting but I felt it didn't really say much as of yet. I'll be reading more to see how it comes up though.
I give it a 7.5/10 I'll round it up to an 8 though. Not bad so far :up:

And yeah sucks that only one person did this. :csad:
 
When are they going to announce the topic for the next one? It's already July 4th!
 
When Sapphire decides the topic. Otherwise i may stop it as there have been so few entries in total.
 
I know people show interest and then not turn something, but I hope Sapphire or Lobo have another go at this. It's funny though because fan fics turn up all the time. Just need to get more attention to the contest threads, I know I'll try and enter the next one if it's a good topic.
 
She's not supplied any ideas. You have a good idea for the next one, I'm all ears.
 
Damn, I swear to God I was going to write a fic for this "Summer Blockbuster" catagory but I lost my internet connection and had to wait a month to get it back. I had a bundle of ideas for this catagory that it was hard to decide which one to choose. Anyhow, I'd like to see you for now on just make the catagories simple genres(EX. Crime, Drama, Action/Adventure, etc.) so it's a bit easier to come up with a universe, characters, and whatever else.
