A single burst of lightning shoots across the sky. A blue flame against the grey cotton hovering in the endless midnight. Sparks fly from it in waves as it whips through the air, cutting through like a razor. The oxygen just around it catches fire for an instant, adding to the brilliant, electric blue glow. It turns in sharp angles, a jagged stroke straight towards the ground. Suddenly, it branches off, making a second path for itself. Both branches strike the ground at once, causing a marvelous explosion as grass catches flame in a moment's notice and dirt flies through the air. Beneath the soil the electricity races towards a nearby tree and finds its way into its root system, igniting the tree in an orange-red flame.

Thunder booms, rolling through the air like a giant wave. The bass of its great voice shaking the Earth to its core. Rain pours from the sky, the graceful droplets of water extinguishing the flaming tree and settling the dirt that was loosened.

In an instant... lightning struck.
