Fire The blaze was an intense, hot, dancing wave of destruction. Jumping from house to house, destroying everything in its path with a raging heat. The firefighters struggled as they attempted to keep it contained, futile as it was. The sound of fire engines echoed for miles in all directions. Hundreds of gallons of water being jetted into the flames, a useless attempt. As one flame simmered out, another one erupted, people fleeing as it happened. The sounds were deafening, helicopters of all sorts flying overhead. News crews strewn out across the destruction, people screaming in horror and panic. Such a sight to behold, Nature taking its course. All you could do was observe in horror as one by one homes crumbled in the wake of the Fire's destruction.
