...the sky turned Spring side out,
furred at the edges; it
hissed a warning in the
wind, swiping at the Earth
with paws of anger. Mice.
That's all we were, mice
to be toyed with: it got
ugly, real fast. The last
thought I had before things
went black was, "Have mercy!"

This would make a good twist for a scifi/fantasy film... Almost as if the skies and nature itself turned its back on humanity and made life miserable, scary and well yeah, ugly fast. x

Now this was certainly different on what does indeed seem to follow in Spring's footsteps for some. Very creative thinking here. Thank you for taking the time and effort to enter my contest. Good luck!

Indeed.
It is so nice to see you writing these. You always put your special touch to pieces. I have seen three tornados now and that is enough. But I suspect I will see more.
