A 50 word flash fiction

Lightning cracked

by Chrissy710


'Twas hot and humid.
Strong northerly winds worried Jim. "Gunna be another bad day love," he announced. "I'll keep a look out."

Mid afternoon; flash, lightning cracked.

Within seconds sparks and flames raced along the dry undergrowth taking hold. 

White smoke alerted Jim, his heart now racing.

"Fire," he shouted.
