Thunder Struck

An ear collapsing crack shook the building and ground beneath throwing everyone off balance. Clair shouted EARTHQUAKE!, removing her glasses, shoving them in the case like Cooper instructed earlier. Pike's eyes scrunched following how the air was bending in front of his glasses. Sharp peaks blipped with calmer lines following. It reminded him of the still pond out back of his Uncle's house.

Cooper slid under as all eyes watched upward to see if the roof was caving in.They waited, all crouched beneath the solid frame of the semi's trailer. Pike's jumpsuit tucked across his quadriceps, glasses still on his face with his fingers touching the pavement, he felt the vibrations. "Do you guys feel that?" All heads turned to stare at Pike."Feel what?" demanded Clair."There's that hum again?""What hum?" Clair glanced down and touched the pavement herself. Nothing. "I don't feel it?"Cooper disbelievingly shook his head to match his words. "No. No. No. No. We have… dammit" He stabbed his finger-pointing, "That door." His eyes searched in all directions. He ordered. "Run!"
