Attic Treasures
by __miasmummy__

Sneaking up the stairs ,
Quiet as a Miamouse. 
Getting really close now ,
Trying not to wake the house. 

Open up the attic doors  --
Careful now, try not to squeak. 
There are many gems up here.
Come on in, let's take a peek. 

Dusty shoes and rusty shields, 
Look closely in case you miss it. 
Our fortune could be in this junk, 
So grab a chair and sit. 

What is this right here? 
Inside this broken old crate:
Collectors items, cards and stamps... 
Now this could be something great. 

A shiver runs down your spine ,
A chill brings goosebumps to flesh, 
Something catches your eye 
Hidden under piles of mesh.

Digging and pulling, you reach 
For the something that is making you shake.
It's warm to the touch, unbelievable! 
An egg and, inside, a new Draik.

Deserted Fairground Vacation Brochure
by Ecobabe

In the month of Relaxing
It gets so awful hot.
Don't you wish to have a chill
At a great vacation spot?
Some may think it's just not right,
Our carnival's "out of season,"
But when the sun beats down upon your home
We're sure you'll find a reason.
Join us for a spooky snack
And it will set your vacation's pace --
I guarantee the spooks you'll see
Will freeze you in your place.
It might make you shiver
To venture in the Castle Nox;
He's now all gone but his home lives on.
You'll be shaking in your socks,
But don't let me give it all away --
Come and see it for yourself!
When the sun beats down upon your home
A chill can be good for your health.

Nitri Cassale, The Valiant Defender
by Fanlia

It's almost that time of year again,
A time of merriment and glee.
It's time for the Altador Cup!
Each team aiming for history.

From Krawk Island, a scrappy bunch,
Ravenous for victory.
One player vital for success,
Who is that player? It's Nitri!

Hailing from a pirate family,
She knew she was meant for greatness.
Surpassing the rest in every sport,
Nitri ended up as one of the best.

Playing in the Cup from the beginning,
Winning first team honors in her third year.
Leading her team to glory a year later,
Her appearance always greeted with cheers.

Through the years, one thing is apparent.
Krawk Island could not do without her.
Yooyuball veteran 
And extraordinary team player,
Nitri Cassale, the valiant defender.

A Cup Of Honor
by Schadenfreudee

It's all a blur, 
Yet more than a dream,
The Altador Cup
of 2014.

Stands are full, 
Not a seat is open, 
My breathing weakens --
I fear choking.

I'm new to this team
Of pirates and players;
I dread playing Brightvale --
That Gordo's a slayer.

A sore thumb,
That's me.
What if that's all 
I'm bound to be?

A sickening thump 
In my chest;
I should really loosen
My goalkeeper vest.

This whole thing is bigger,
Much more than my story.
It's time to play for honor,
To play for the glory.

Maths Nightmare
by Miraday

The palatinate hills oppressively pour
Into the white Aisha's restless trance --
Corrupting her once pristine dreams,
Invading her phantasmagorical land.

The Babaa flock clip clops,
Cascading down in their trot,
Leaping over the clock --
In fighting a losing battle,
Imiya craves for the clock to stop.

Despite your maths endeavor,
The relentless red clock refuses to stall --
The Babaas sustain their omnipotence,
Threatening at any moment to fall.

You falter and confuse a two
Then a three, and the flock accrues!
The Babaas stumble, glancing at you --
You recover, solve and reduce --
Safely, Imiya continues to snooze.

This stressful task is a function of
Skill times practice, add an arbitrary five --
Then subtract your dwindling time.
Hopefully, these dreary clouds will divide.

Oh, Imiya's maths nightmare,
On purple hills teeming, 
Solved barely in time we seek --
No user in Neopia can be 
Hid from her dreaming.
