Welcome to the Second Round
This one is a bit more of a curious one, before you, are several wheel spins, please read the rules for the wheel spins carefully. There are no further rules than that (save for deadline, other than that, the basic general common sense for writing contest rules are, obviously still in place), what you do with the wheel and how you interpret it is your own choice,
Bear in mind, you have TWO respins allowed (repeats are allowed a rerolls, they don't get included with the respins), so pick wisely, and yes you are going through all these wheels.Yes, some of the wheel options intentionally allow a more broader choice, in case if you are wondering.
1. This wheel is your first genre/theme.
2. This wheel is your second part genre/theme.
3. This wheel is a mash of fun literary devices, remember you do not have to overdo it, less is more, more is less. I want to see them, obviously being used, but do feel forced to make it the majority of the story.
Please list your rolls down below, feel free to research if unsure.
Deadline:March 1st, 11:50PM (game time)
EDIT: Clarification, two respins available for the three wheels, not two respins per wheel, so pick which wheel you are using up a respin for.

Under the mistletoe
Chapter 1
Standing under the mistletoe all dressed in red and green a shy young fae Kyaa waits all alone. Wondering why oh why did she let her friends drag her to this only for them to ditch her right away so they could tease and trick a few mortal men.... and maybe a few women too.
Turning to leave heading home for the night she stumbled forward almost hitting the ground but for a hand rough yet warm that caught her. A soft chuckle she heard as voice softly spoke now now little lady no need to fall for me, for I am just a fool of a man now lost, broken and alone.
Looking up she stares at the tall blonde male looking down at her. As he smiles his bright blue eyes sparkle flickering to shades of purple making her gasp. Tha tha thank my lord for saving me but you are wrong for I see no fool just a king with a heart of gold. She murmurs bowing to the Shifter King Takaio Yohan.
Delight spreads across his face though it does not fully remove the sadness in his eyes. Aye well looks can be deceiving my dear for much can being hidden if one tries. And you are welcome I could not let one of my guests fall without trying to help. after a moment he tiredly speaks again Today is not just any old party but rather to let the world meet my heir and announce that soon I will be standing down as king to let him take over.
Just then a loud cheer interrupted them as two young men began ran a lap around the room before stopping to give the fae woman a kiss on the cheek. Blushing bright red, she turned to Takaio I I I don't know what to say about that. She mumbles nervously.
Which made the tall man laugh heartly It's ok my dear it's a Christmas party tradition for the younger people of all species to compete for the first mistletoe kisses and generally just to beat each other, I think that was Shay Arane a half fae half human versing Hiren Yoka a half vampire half human. Heh not sure why Shay always falls for his teasing every Christmas given he never wins."
He pauses as the two men approach staring apologetically at her. One a blonde male speaks first my apologies mam for the sudden kiss we meant no offence it was just part of a game we play at King Takaio's parties. The other guy steps forward pushing his black hair from his face yes.... we are both... uhhh very sorry he mumbles looking away.
Shaking her head, she smiles well thank you both and.." she pauses glaring slightly at the blond none of this mam nonsense please I'm only twenty-nine in human years. Though it really is my own fault for standing under the mistletoe in my red and green outfit not quite as alone as I once was Smiling softly, she looks at all three of them how about a drink to make up for it??? I mean you too my lord.
Chapter 2
Hiding in a corner for some much wanted peace and quiet Shay Arane sighed tiredly. Every year the Caisuo Orphange where he lived got invited to King Yohan's Christmas party and as the oldest boy still living there he got unwillingly dragged to it. Unlike him Nyrae the oldest girl was happily chatting and working the crowd in hopes of drawing much needed funds for the charity. 'Hmph some charity' he snorted thinking to himself 'most of the money lined the boss and owners pockets and was rarely used on the kids.' Dragged from his thoughts by a loud voice his eyes were drawn to the loud blond male making his way over.
Glaring at the tall teen he sighed really Yoka why are you coming over now?? You know how much I don't want the attention. An old friend and classmate at U.A. High School Hiren Yoka just ignored him grinning widely at the tired boy. Hiiiiiiiii Arane how's my favorite tired kitty today?? he called cheekily earning him another glare. Bored and wanting to be left alone Yoka Grumbled the dark haired male. Laughing hard the blonde just grinned weeeelll that's a shame as there's some gorgeous new fae ladies that just walked in. Annnnd it's new years eve so there's the first kiss of the new year to think about. he chattered.
Sighing softly Arane stared at the blonde. hmmph so what game do you want to do this time loud mouth?? he murmured already knowing the answer. Duuuuh a race of course and the winner gets to kiss the pretty young lady already standing under the mistletoe for us. Said Yoka. Oh and Kayah can start us off so it is fair. he added looking at the tall blue haired woman nearby,
Grumbling fine Arane stood lining up ready. Watching as the two teens got ready Kayah began counting down five, four, three, two, one gooo. Taking off they headed around sprinting at full pace as a cheer went up the two guys were neck and neck till Yoka pulled ahead kissing the woman on the cheek seconds before Arane did the same.
Slowly the two men approach staring apologetically at the woman. Yoka speaks first my apologies mam for the sudden kiss we meant no offence it was just part of a game we play at King Takaio's parties. Before Arane steps forward pushing his black hair from his face yes..... we are both... uhhh very sorry he mumbles looking away.
The woman shakes her head smiling well thank you both and.. she pauses glaring slightly at the blond none of this mam nonsense please I'm only nineteen in human years. Though it really is my own fault for standing under the mistletoe in my red and green outfit not quite as alone as I once was Smiling softly she looks at all three of them how about a drink to make up for it??? I mean you too my lord.
Surprised the three guys nod following her to the bar. Oh by the way I am Hiren Yoka and this is Shay Arane. Says the blonde. Smiling again the woman turns Kyaa Reian soon to be a new student and teacher at the local high school
....To be continued

Okies, there is a third wheel, and remember, pick one from each wheel, and thats the premise of your story.
again, you have two respins, in the off chance if you *really* don't like what it rolled you. Two respins, for all three wheels, not two per wheel btw.
-runs back to clarify-
