Excellence Award in the 'Word Zone 2016' competition
Masses of grey swept over.
Strike. Strike.
Their path of destruction followed.
Boom. Boom.
The sky shattered in a forking flash of white.
Splash. Splash.
The rain came down in pounding torrents.
Screech. Screech.
Cars came to a sudden halt.
Gush. Gush.
Towns flooded instantly.
Scream. Scream.
Lives are taken forever.
