After getting hit by a car, you wake up in a video game! You have three chances to make the target fall in love with you or you'll be sent to the netherworld with nothing but terrible demons to keep you company. Will you succeed?
The challenge is to write a short story, with a maximum of 2,000 words, that is based on or inspired by our prompt.
Keep in mind that your story must be Asian Fantasy and must be categorized as Fantasy. You are welcome to incorporate romantic or horror subplots. If you have any questions about what Asian Fantasy is, check out our Profile Guide.
You can submit your entry through this form (also linked at the end of the chapter as an external link).

Do I have to make a new book?
You can submit an existing or separate book, but please ensure that when submitting, the link must be your entry link, and we cannot add your existing book in our respective reading list.
Does it have to be 2000 words, and do I need to write a single chapter only?
Because it's a short story contest, the word limit is that and not over. Adding more than one chapter is welcome but please keep in mind the story must meet our word limit.
Can I do a co-written story with someone?
Yes, you can! However, if you choose to publish on both your profiles, be aware that we can only add one story to our respective reading lists, not both.
Can I enter more than one entry?
Yes, but only one entry can win.
What about Mature? Are LGBTQ+ characters allowed?
Of course! We always welcome LGBTQ+ characters and stories. Mature is allowed so long as it meets Wattpad's Content Guidelines. Stories that do not meet this won't be accepted.
How will our entries be judged?
Stories are judged on various factors, such as writing quality, originality, and the relation to our prompt. Ensure you are proofreading your works before submitting!
