Okay, so this is my very first challenge…

But I want to see how people work with this.

This is the challenge.

Write a romance story, no yaoi or weird pairings. Acceptable ones, Ginga X Madoka, Wales X Sophie, Chao Xin X Mei-Mei, Ryuuga X Hikaru (I've fallen with this pairing), and any other character X OC.

The winner will have me write a story with any pairing of their choice, provided it is up there above and that it's non-yaoi.

The story must be a one-shot.

It might seem easy, but here's the hard part.

It must be an Evanescence song fic, without lyrics in the actual story. Song fics are great, but the lyrics just annoy the hell out of me. So no lyrics in the story.

Oh, and the title must be the same as the song you are writing about.

Also, there is a limit of having two lyrics as dialog/description, with certain exceptions.

And there are certain songs that it has to be.

Bring Me To Life, Call Me When You're Sober, Good Enough, My Immortal, What You Want, and My Heart is Broken.

Those are the songs.

That is the challenge.

What are you waiting for? Get writing!

Song Of Hope

Oh, and here's a story to keep my account from getting suspended.

Jamie sat watching VeggieTales. Hope walked in.

"Hey Jamie, what'cha watching?" He started singing along with the theme song.

"Broccoli, celery, gotta be, VeggieTales." She smiled, and sang along with him.

"Lima beans! Collar greens! Peachy keen! Veggie tales! Cauliflower, sweet and sour, half an hour, Veggie Tales! There's never ever-ever-ever-ever been a show like Veggie Tales! There's never ever-ever-ever-ever been a show like Veggie Tales! IT'S TIME FOR VEGGIE TALES!" They watched a lot of VeggieTales together, laughing and smiling, singing along with the songs.

"Oh WHERE is my hairbrush?"

"I can be your friend wa-wa-wa!"

"Love your neighbor."

"She broke the plate it's true!"

"BARBRA MANATEE (manatee, manatee)! I'LL BE YOUR MONA MI (mona mi, mona mi)!"

"God is bigger than the Boogie Man, he's bigger than Godzilla or the monsters on TV! Oh God is bigger than the Boogie Man and he's watching out for you and me!"

"We are the Grapes of Wrath, we never take a bath."

"Because I love my duck."

"Larry-Boy, Larry-Boy, lean and mean, green machine, Larry-Boy."

Soon, it was almost five o'clock and Hope was meeting up with Kyoya soon. Hope looked very sad.

"Oh, I wanted to keep watching VeggieTales with you, but I'm meeting up with Kyoya at Bey Park in a few minutes. I need to get going." Jamie looked sad.

"Okay then. But consider our game, postponed." They always sad that to each other whenever they wanted to watch VeggieTales later. She smiled, and said her reply.

"I've fallen and I can't get up." He smiled really big. She left. And he waited for her to get home before playing the rest of Larry-Boy and the Fib from Outer Space.
