*Rumble!*
The ground beneath Destiny City began to shake violently. The citizens were all huddling in shelters or their homes, waiting for the process of the city rising into the sky to be over. Some braver people were outside on the rooftops to watch the process firsthand.
A large crack began to form in the earth about half a mile from the barrier. This crack began to break apart the earth in a line going around the city. It was not perfectly straight. Some parts were wider than others, but it continued on. Even when it hit the water, this crack broke apart the sea floor and even went out further than it did from the land taking three miles of ocean with it.
This cracking was not just in one direction but both. It was as if it was trying to claim as much land as possible before reaching its limit. The entire process took almost thirty minutes, and when the two sections connected, the true start of the rise began.
