Shooting Stars


I was reading something this week and it mentioned shooting stars, so that stuck in my brain as a good idea for some prompts.  Of course, I can't remember for the life of me what the heck I was reading :facepalm:  And I've had Bad Company's Shooting Star playing in my head ever since as well.  So let's shoot for the stars and see what we come up with.  After a bit of a sing-along, of course :whistle: 

 

 

PT Prompt #251

You've had a week from hell and on the drive home from work, you see a shooting star and instantly make a wish.  What was the wish and did it come true? 

 

PT Prompt #252

Astronomers discover that there's a meteor shower on a collision course with Earth.  It's an endgame event they say will destroy all life on the planet.  It's due to arrive in one week.  What do you do for that week and what happens when the meteor shower arrives? 

 

Please include the prompt number either in your story/chapter description or title to help readers who would like to search for specific prompts. Also, please remember that stories less than one thousand words must be posted as part of a collection.

If you check the subgenre 'prompt' in your story tags, then people/readers can find everything here:

And don't forget our Prompt Team Event that's in full swing!  Message either me or Aditus and we'll assign you a random prompt :devil:

I guess I am really old, because the first two songs I thought about concerning "stars" were Perry Como's "Catch a Falling Star and Put it in Your Pocket, Save it For a Rainy Day", and Jiminy Cricket's "When You Wish Upon a Star".

I almost went with "When You Wish Upon a Star" as the title, but decided to with Bad Company's since that was stuck in my head.

I hope no one used a target arrow or a dart gun to stick it in your head.  :gikkle:   :hug:  :heart:
