With the fire playing wildly around his hands, Hugh found a way to get through the boulder in front of him. He put his hand on the boulder and closed his eyes as he tried to concentrate even more.
He tended every part of his muscle, and his face showed the strain he was going through, but the fire flickered in and out of existence.
He had only gotten this power just recently, so he did not know how to use it. The fire that was in his hands was too weak to melt through the boulder that was preventing him from escaping.
With his life on the line and the pressure building around him, Hugh was stressed beyond belief. The ground around him continued to crack until there was only a little piece of land left that he could stand on.
He was running out of time, and he still could not control the fire properly. Then, the last piece of land that he was standing on started to crack under the constant earthquake in the room.
