"Well isn't this a fine afternoon, I guess." Jack thinks to himself as he flies over the city in a bright sunny day.

"Should probably go home, seeing how the town is peaceful at the moment."

BRUMBLE!BRUMBLE!

"An earthquake? It never happens in this location! Wait what's happening to the sky?"

The red sky and black clouds swirls above Hickory Clock tower with a black spot above the towers.

"Oh crap, gotta get everyone evacuated from here."

SHING!

A huge white flash blinds the city.

BADABOOM!

"What the hell! The city! It's all gone!"

The ash of the city covered the sky, buildings burning, glass shattered, streets and highways destroyed, the city floor almost covered in lava.

SYUUUHF!

"That sound!" Jack looks over at the top of Hickory Clock tower.

"It's the portal! Here's my chance!" Jack shouts as he flies over there.

"Wait a sec. What are those things?"

Numerous of giant human hand like creatures the size of a large dog with long nails landing on all fingers excluding the middle, which it appears to be its head.

BAM!

"Rikuh! Tikuh! Tuh!" The hand cried.

"Kyuh!Get off of me!" Jack shouts as he struggles to get one off of him.

"FROST CASE!"

VIRRR! Jack cloaks himself in ice.

"Reeteek!" The hand cried as it flew away.

"That takes care of one!"

SYUUUHF! Another portal opens at the bottom of the tower.

"A second one? Oh no! The first one is closing!" As he flies to the portal.

SHUN!

"Dammit! Wait, what the hell is the second one doing?"

CREAK!As the clock tower begins to tip over.

"It's being sucked in!" He cries as he flies to the bottom.

"Rikuh! Tikuh! Tuh! Rikuh! Tikuh! Tuh!"

A swarm of hands attack Jack.

"Not! EHN! Now!"

Jack struggles to get them off. The hands sink in their nails in Jack.

"GYAAAH!FROST BOLT!" He struck himself with ice.

"Reeteek!"The hands cried as they flew off

SHUN! The half of the clock tower was gone.

"You can't be- You can't be serious..." He worries as he looks at tower.

"No..."

He flies down closer to the clock.

KIRIK!

"No no no no no no no!" as he looks through the destroyed clock.

"The portal should still be here!"

He looks at the red sky.

"God dammit..." He breathes as he begins to tear.
