Good luck! I hope a burst of inspiration hits you soon!
Tip: It may help to do something else for a while. keeping it in the back of your head that you want to write a story. If you do get any ideas, write them down on a notepad!

I finished my writing entry! This was by far the hardest entry of them all!
As I sat down looking at the sunset, I ask myself what I can do. I've been stuck with this tent, on this hill, with only all the food I packed. I'm stuck here, all I can do is look at the city below... All I see is lights, no life. As I lie down, I stare up at the stars, unable to sleep.
As soon as I awoke, I started on my breakfast. As I heated my food, I once again looked down at the village, wondering when I'll ever see life again, whether it's from that village or from another country. It's just lonely, too lonely...
I awoke to the sunrise, along with people down at the village. People! There are people! Finally! But, what caused them to come out of their homes at this time? On this day? As I awaited night, I played some games. Soon before sunset came, I walked down to the village. I didn't know how they would treat me. I was filthy, stinky, and tired. As different thoughts and memories rushed through my mind, I kept walking.
I finally arrived at the village. I saw that they were setting up what looked to be a type of festivity. With activities, so different from the rest, art, photography, and writing. They had many more, like pet contests, beauty contests. It was beautiful, unexplainable. I've never seen anything like it before. I went up to someone, and introduced myself.
"Hi! I'm Ceana!"
"Hello Ceana! I'm Maggie!" said the person.
"Where am I? What's going on?"
"You are in Emberton, we are currently setting up for the Fire Festival."
"What's that?"
"It's a festival celebrating the founding of Emberton."
"Oh. That sounds like fun! Is there any place I can stay for a few nights?"
"You can come and stay with me!"
"Really? Thanks!"
I continued to walk around the village. I met many others. They all treated me kindly.
I got to Maggie's house, she asked me if I wanted a shower. I replied saying, "Please!"
Maggie got the shower ready. It really felt nice to be back under a roof, surrounded by warmth and food. She even made a nice room for me.
A few days later, the Fire Festival started. I explored around, entering the art, photography, and writing. There was also a few games, and I won a few prizes. For the whole 2 weeks, red, yellow, and orange fireworks flew into the sky. People carried torches around in the darkest of nights. The whole village was lively, it was like the festivities wouldn't end.
Maggie recommended me some jobs, gave me some money to take care of myself. After I was hired at a job, I was eventually able to buy myself a house in that village. But, suddenly it hit me. I'm far from home. Me and my family got separated while on vacation. They are missing me.
I started for home. There was no airports near. I started to cross the mountains. The nights were cold, food was scarce, survival was hard to achieve. Though, I had to fight all of those, it was difficult.
"I have to finish! I have to get to an airport! I have to find my family!"
After about 5 days, I was only halfway through, I never slept. I had 4 meals a day. I felt as if I was starving myself, and occasionally feeling as if I was slowly dieing.
I finally came through, I was exhausted. I was able to make it to the airport. As soon as I sat down, I started to doze off...
In my dream I was home, playing with my siblings, helping my parents, going to the park. It was all too much, with what I could be doing at that moment. If only I didn't get separated...
I suddenly woke up, nearly in tears, the dream was too harsh. I once again drifted off to sleep.
As soon as we landed I woke up. I felt really refreshed. Since my home was near, I began to walk. It turns out I went clear to the other side. It was dark on that side, the air was dirty. I somehow went to a different city.
I couldn't leave. They trapped me. I didn't have ID on me, they asked for ID. I stayed trapped in a local orphanage. No one helped me out.
The orphanage was worse than the town itself. The caretakers were mean. You were barely fed.
About one month later, they let me out. I walked to the border, and said I got permission the mayor. They let me through, and I walked home.
It took about an hour, but I made it back home. My family turned out to be waiting for me, hoping I wasn't dead. When I came in the door, they all came up and hugged me.
EPILOG
Just like my dream, I played with my siblings, helped my parents, and we all went on a walk. It was all a beautiful ending.

Good entry, starting off nice in the begging, but why did it turn so dark? Lol @-@
As the fireflies flew across her yard, Millie endlessly chased them, in a world of her own amusement, completely ignorant of any problems that had been bothering her. The sky was clear, and you could see one million little stars in the sky. After an hour of chasing the fireflies, MIllie was exhausted, and laid next to her older brother, Reid, who was on a blanket staring up at the stars, looking for constellations. “You see that one Millie? That’s the big dipper. Do you see an identical one but smaller inside it?” he asked his sister, who replied, “Ooh! The Big Dipper! That is such a fascinating name! It reminds me of an Ice Cream Scoop!” she said, giggling. They continued to talk about constellations, in their own world of imagination, and eventually fell asleep together on the blanket.
Millie, who was eight years old at the time, loved to see animals and bugs of all kinds. She had always been fascinated with them, and she had developed a very strong passion towards them. Reid, being 9, loved riding his bike, but that was nothing compared to his passion for basketball. He swore he would be on the team of his college. They loved to spend time together, and really empathized with each other. They cared deeply for one another, more than a normal sibling relationship.
The next morning, the siblings found themselves tucked into their beds, wondering how they had gotten there. When they asked their parents, they were told, “Well, maybe it was magic!” This excited both of them, and they spent the day thinking about magic. They went swimming that day, and Millie began to wonder if holding her breath was magic, too. Reid said she had the idea all wrong, and that the water was the real magic. Millie giggled and thought that he might just be right, and they went on to play sharks and minnows with their friends.
That night, there was a huge thunderstorm, and Millie started to cry out of terror. Her brother comforted her, and told her how the thunder was just God telling them that he loved them. This made her feel much better, and Reid felt satisfied that he had made her sister feel better.
The next day, Reid and Millie’s parents had a surprise for them. They had received an email from Walt Disney World with a promotion and an amazing deal on tickets. Their children were outside, playing with their friends, and they knew that Reid and Millie would be so excited. The tickets came in the mail that afternoon. After Reid and Millie had come inside from catching fireflies, their parents asked them to come sit down in the den. Mark, their father, asked them to close their eyes, so they did so. He pulled the tickets out of his pocket and showed them to his children. They opened their eyes, and what they saw, set their hearts on fire with excitement. They screamed and jumped up and down and began to cry. They got so excited that they couldn’t sleep.
Over the next few days, they packed for Disney. Millie and Reid told all of their friends about their trip and they were all excited for them, although also pretty jealous. For these days all the kids could think about was their trip to the best place on earth. They were so excited and just thrilled. On the last day of packing, Millie and Reid stayed up a lot of the night talking about what they would want to do in the most magical place on earth, and which characters they wanted to meet.
During their trip, they went to all four parks. Millie loved Animal Kingdom and the Kilimanjari Safari ride, while Reid loved Hollywood Studios and the Tower of Terror. They met every Disney character you could imagine: Belle, Cinderella, Snow White, Chip and Dale, and many, many more. Overall, their trip was a success, and Mark and his wife were happy to see how happy their children were. On the trip home, it was super quiet because no one wanted to leave this wondrous place. Although, Millie had been thinking the entire ride home that dreams DO come true, a very similar thought in Reid’s head.
Throughout the rest of summer, Reid and Millie constantly talked about their trip, reminiscing, and enjoying the memories that they made. They continued catching fireflies and playing with their friends. As the summer came to close, they went back to school shopping and found out who would be in their classes, although they were sad and didn’t want this summer in particular to end. Reid continued to chase his dream of being a famous basketball player, and Millie chased her dream of being a veterinarian, keeping what they deemed as the best summer of their lives.

I don't know XD. I think it needed more stuff. I needed to reach the 800 words, but with things going with that was gonna end with 600 words, so I had to make it darker so it was longer.
Thanks!

I brought my camera to the nearest park yesterday (when there wasn't any rain yet, not even a cloud in the sky. Oh, how the tides have changed...). After a long time of going through all the pictures I took, I've selected this picture from the bunch. I don't think I'll win seeing all the other creations, but at least I can say I'm proud of my submission! c:
