As fire rained from above
smoke
dust
and volcaNic heat
stifled her breathe
from the dark bellowing
cloud of toxic fumes
a dusty figure appeared
arching over her
as she lay helpless
huddled
in a small corner
of the erupting room
using his body as a shield
the mysterious fiGure
lifted the girl into his arms
to carry her to safety
moving through the blazing corridors
avoiding daggers of fire
and spears from hell
emerging to the sanctuary of open Earth.
the girl now frozen with shock
is placed delicately on the soft grass
and while flashing Lights come to a halt
she watches as the dusty figure disappears back through the smoke.
gone.
