"*Cough!*,*Cough!*"
Kimberly spat out sand that had accumulated in her mouth and wriggled her body, freeing herself from the blanket of dust that covered her.
She swirled her tongue in her mouth and spat out the grains of sand that lingered, some even stuck on her teeth.
She shook her head like a wet dog and dust rose from it, her once silky black strands now marred by the grime of dust.
"What the..."
She muttered in disbelief, the last thing she remembered seeing was the skies brightly illuminated by thousands upon thousands of spears made of lightning.
A loud ringing sound reverberated throughout her ears, a result of the shockwaves consuming her being.
"Ugh..."
She stood up, her tattered clothes thick with dust, her once soft, pinkish skin now adorned by the color of the earth.
*Crackle!*
She enveloped her being in Mana, the force of its blaze enough to remove the majority of the grime adorning her.
