“Well, on the tour, the film said they used frog DNA to fill in the
gene sequence gaps. They mutated the dinosaur genetic code and
blended it with that of a frog's. Now, some West African frogs have
been known to spontaneously change sex from male to female in a
single sex environment. Malcolm was right. Look...Life found a way.”

If you ever play “Red Light, Green Light” with someone be sure
to shout “purple light” and see what they do. Anyway onto the
flash fiction!
Snow Blight
“Mirror, mirror on the wall...who has the ugliest heart of them
all?” asked the Sorceress, protector of the lands and advisor to
the twelve kings in time of crisis. An eye appeared inside her magic
mirror and looked at her, it could compliment her beauty and dress,
but being a summoned being it felt like answering the questions given
to it as soon as possible so it could go back to its realm more
important than any small talk.
The mirror told the Sorceress, “Snow Blight, the witch of the
Sickness Mountains is the one with the ugliest heart of them all.”
The Sorceress asked her next question, “Is Snow Blight dangerous?”
“If her and her seven imps are not stopped, then she could hurt
the people of these lands.” Immediately after hearing this the
Sorceress turned away from the mirror. She would have no one,
especially someone as powerful as a witch, hurting the people of
these lands.
The Sorceress went to her cauldron and put her pepper colored hands
into the spices of magic. She brewed potion after potion and prepared
spell after spell. She wouldn't let the witch get her with any
surprises. The last spells created in her spell room were
teleporation spells and she sent herself straight to Snow Blight.
She found Snow Blight in front of her house, an old woman with gray
hair, pale skin, warts and mouth with only half-full with teeth.
Seven red imps helped her garden. The garden looked innocent enough,
but the Sorceress saw that the ingredients for incredibly vile spells
grew in the garden.
“Oh, hello dear,” said Snow Blight smiling. The red imps smiled
and bowed too.
The Sorceress didn't hesitate, she started casting spells, opening
potions and pouring their liquids into the ground to summon
incredible power. Snow Blight responded with great power, pulling out
a wand full of dark power that countered the spells and nuetralized
the light spells. The Sorceress was glad for not underestimating her
foe. However as the battle waged on the red imps joined in and
attacked by throwing rocks. The simple extra distraction prevented
the Sorceress from casting a vital spell and she knew that the
strongest offensive spells in her arsenal were depleted.
“You may have stopped those spells, but enchanted apple increases
the magic power of anyone tenfold. I'll eat it and you'll fall easily
before me,” The Sorceress smiled and held the apple in front of her
face. One of the seven imps snatched it from her and gives it to Snow
Blight.
Snow Blight cackled, “Now I'll be the stronger one and you'll fall
with ease!” she then took a bite of the apple and fell into a
sleeping curse. With the master gone the seven imps vanished. The
Sorceress left Snow Blight to her eternal slumber.
