Darkest Night, May 16, 2012

Rain pelted the figure huddled at the foot of the tree. A flash of lightening followed by a booming crash ripped through the night.

            He looked at the sky, pulled his coat tighter around his shoulders. It didn’t help though he was already soaked through and chilled to the bone.

            He saw a flickering through the trees, and thought he heard laughing.

            There was a fire burning, and for a moment he couldn’t see anything else other than the blaze.

            Another flash, and suddenly a giant figure was over the inferno.

            Someone screamed, and he realized it was his own voice.
