The eruption
Poffitt! The Torrid lava breaks out of its shell. It can’t take it anymore. The lava acts like an exasperated bull. Incandescent lava erupts through the top getting ready to burn anything in its way. Snow blankets the mountain all over. Bushes and trees dance in the light breeze. Smoke spreads quickly, completely, blackening the lilac sky making it a struggle for people to breathe or see.

Like when a bone in your body cracks lightning appears almost immediately. It looks like the lean veins of a hand. Faintly pearly white stars twinkle in the background but they are mostly covered up by the lava and smoke. Mountains in the foreground black and bold have no idea what is happening.
Screams are heard from every direction. Some people say “RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!”
Some people are just analysing the scene and thinking “How did this happen all of a sudden?’’ A few minutes later the whole city is quiet because all the people living inside have locked themselves in their homes. But unfortunately, the lava doesn’t wait for anybody. Seconds turn to minutes, as the selfish lava seeps down the volcano like a liquid avalanche leading the villagers closer to their eternal rest...
