BOOM! The explosion rumbles the Earth, shaking so nothing stands still. BRRIING! Telephones screaming in ears, then, dead silence. BLINK-BLINK! BLINK-BLINK! Car signals flicker, trying to rush where they belong. BEEEP! Fire alarms start going off in every home. BOOOP! Fire engines start roaring down the streets. BLAST! Water hits the burning buildings with bacon-like sizzles.
