While standing within the explosion, Sera couldn't hear anything, but when Faith took her through the shadows, away from the wave of energy, her eardrums nearly exploded.
The sound was comparable to a giant volcanic eruption. It probably reached even Europe and South America!
The people in the Village just huddled together, covering their ears desperately. Many of them passed out from the loud explosion, but luckily nobody died.
However, while everyone stared out at the energy light show, a lone baby's cry echoed from a hospital room.
Vicky tried calming her newborn brother, but the baby didn't stop wailing. As if he could sense her mother's danger… Or maybe he was just hungry. Vicky couldn't tell either way…
Near the explosion, Sera and Faith watched as the energy formed a mushroom cloud and began dispersing towards the atmosphere. The sight was both terrible and strangely magnificent. Something to be admired from afar.
