Crackle* Rumble*
Thunder split the sky, like an axe chopping the wood in half, lighting up the rain-soaked streets for a second. Lightning danced in the droplets and puddles, casting fleeting reflections before darkness reclaimed the scene.
But the thunder wasn't the only sound to pierce the storm.

Someone crashed into a building. People were scurrying away in fear. If they didn't, they would be buried under the collapsing building. The building crashed, trying its best to raise the dust, but the wet ground had already taken care of it, making its efforts vain.
The crowd, now gathered at a safer distance or what they estimated to be a safe one, exchanged whispers, still frightened. What had happened? Was anyone still inside?
