Here's mine:
As the dark of night slowly crept along the horizon, and the sun sank below the jagged mountain peaks in the distance, I began my work. My laboratory was filled with the sweet sounds of mechanical humming and the bubbling of beakers left in the sink to soak. I locked the door behind me and flipped a switch on the wall, turning on the lights. Putting on my labcoat, I walked slowly toward my station. The sound of my shoes clacking against the linoleum floors only reminded me that I was alone; alone so I could do my best work. I took a seat in the chair that hugged the edge of the countertop and began my work....
Just about halfway through, I thought to myself just how much I could help people with my knowledge. I could develop a new vaccine, or find a cure for cancer or ALS. -
I could, however destroy everything I know and love with it as well. Within these syringes and beakers, and under these microscopes, I possessed the power to do great good...or evil. And as I closed up the lab, for my work for the night was finished, I thought to myself: What could I do with this knowledge? But deep in my heart, I knew the answer. I knew that my work could help people, and that is what I intended it to do.
It's a scientist!

2nd place entry

As I slowly trudged home one evening, I glanced up at the starry night sky and breathed a sigh. The heavens, in their beauty, masked the painful horrors of this world. The door slammed behind me as I wolfed down my dinner and proceeded to my desk. As I picked up my pen and began to write, I could feel the scenes of another world enter my conscience. Word after word of a heart wrenching tale flowed onto the pale paper, illuminated by a soft glow from my desk lamp. I felt sleep creep upon me, but I persevered, and poured my heart out on the page. As I slowly drifted off into the abyss of sleep, there in front of me lay the key to a mystical world.

quick draw kev
I'm also an inventor. I'm currently working on a very cool invention, that currently has some pretty cool applications. But with future updates could have world wide applications. :) I can't wait to get it out.
(allthough it is missing literary elements, he was the only other person who participated)
