For the second challenge of 2025, write a story in which a character is searching for something specific, and unusual. Make it a physical object. What are they looking for? Why do they want it? Do they find it?
To make this prompt extra challenging, avoid having your characters look for: evidence, love, a person, an emotional state (happiness, recognition, etc.), something people commonly lose track of (keys, wallet, umbrella), animal hunting. Optional bonus points are available if you make us laugh or smile.
