The Bomb
Shaped like an arrow, pointing downward. Suspended in the air like a crystal bird, hovering above the dark town. It floated there for a moment singing, singing and screaming.
THUD
It collided with the earth with an inhumane shock. For a moment it seemed as if everything froze in time.
BLAST
Fire engulfed the town, swallowing everything in a fiery blaze. The little girl with the ringlets, the little boy holding his blanket, the elderly woman clinging to her son.
GONE
No time to scream. No time to run. No time to cry. No time to pray.
SILENCE.
