Rosa is still in mourning over her daughter's death. But has she really lost her only child forever? Or does God have something else in store for them?

Tatum Hampton, is now a foster girl. She has ran away, done everything under the sun, and yet she's trapped with people she can't stand. The count down begins.91 days until she leaves, or so she hopes.

Once upon a time in the Kingdom of Sonas, the finest kingdom out of all the kingdoms in the land, everyone was so very happy since King Kindely and his wife Queen Caroline were so very, very good.

But one day King Kindely lost his wife and very young daughter, Princess Priscilla. Upon returning to the Kingdom of Sonas, the King's finest ship carrying the Queen and the Princess was swallowed up by the biggest fish anyone had ever seen on the Salty Sea.

The King was very sad and for years cried and cried. Soon, the Salty Sea began to rise and with it many, many islands that were as big as mountains too. Also, the fish were found no more.

On the land the driest drought anyone had ever experience was taking the only fresh water left leaving the people worrying that one day it would all be gone and they would perish.

But one day the King cried his last tear and came to his senses. He believed if the fish could be found the Queen and Princess could be rescued from its belly and the Kingdom of Sonas would once again be the happiest kingdom in all the lands.

He sent out a plea asking all to help.

And the story begins when the plea reaches the hands of a son of a simple farmer. The son reads the plea and decides to help The Lonely King.

Not many will take on the responsibility of caring for an elder loved one. In that missed opportunity they will deny themselves the beauty of a lesson in compassion.

I wrote this short story for a contest that I competed in my freshman year of high school called Young Georgia Authors. I was pronounced grade representative with this short story. It qualified for the regional competition, but didn't get any farther than that. This story is set in Medieval Times. It's basically about a war that takes place- a fictitious war of course.
