Well, to make it short and sweet, my school had held a creative writing contest...and to make it s&s again, the topic was 'when i looked into the well...'. Intresting as the topic was, you can't just write 'I saw lots of water' or 'the well was empty'. Duh! It's creative writing contest. My short story was more like alice in wonderland and the like... i was also warned to not write '...and i woke up and it was all a dream.'(which unfortunately i wrote anyway) So, as much as i regret losing the top position in the contest, could you guys give me your idea for the topic? Well, to make it more complicated, we were told to start with...'When i looked into the well...'

Hmmm...sounds intresting. So, here i go - when i looked into the well, i saw my reflection staring back up at me. The reflection grabbed me and pulled me into...a strange place... There was no water underwater. But there was a a bouyant feeling. Nearby, on the well wall, i noticed a small hole. I went through it and emerged into another well. A wooden well minus the water. Surprised, i looked around. The sky didn't seem to be the same as the one i was watching at the other well. So i decided to investigate. I climbed out of the wooden well and looked around. Around me were green trees and grass, quiet unlike the place i was from. And surprisingly, further away was a tree. A huge tall tree with a...person?...pinned to it. I went closer. It was a boy wearing the clothes of a priest - white and red. He had two white dog-like ears sticking out of his head having long white hair. An arrow was pierced right through his heart. Okay you caught me. InuYasha! So? At least it isn't Alice in Wonderland! Anyway, i guess this means i don't have imagination...really sorry.
