Soon, as expected, the burning trails intersect, though both planes fly away unscathed.

The ground begins to rumble, and a deep and ominous sound steadily approaches, increasing in volume. Yet children play, their mothers cook, people shuffle off to work and back, neighbors chat, and elderly men sit in the afternoon sun playing a leisurely game of chess.
