I didn’t get as many entries for this challenge as I would have liked, but the entries that were posted were all great. So it was not easy selecting first, second and third place. Thank you to everyone who wrote a ficlet for this challenge as well as those who took the time to post comments on the ficlets, as you helped me make the final decision.

First Place
The 7 Year Old News (What If Challenge)
by Freedom
In my humble opinion, this was the best entry of the bunch. Freedom really took the challenge and ran with it, creating a ficlet that was as inspired as it was funny.

Second Place
Raining Cats and Dogs (“What If” Challenge)
by ChrisWDP
This was just incredibly witty. A pleasure to read.

Third Place
If Children Ruled the World….[what.if.challenge]
by Charlotte Scriversi
Charlotte actually posted two great entries, but this was my favorite of the two.
