"Holy smokes!" Leo's voice cracked. He stood transfixed, arms crossed tight across his chest. The neighbor's ancient pine had splintered, a green and brown mess. It was covering a significant portion of their lawn and had crushed the little gazebo.

He couldn't tear his gaze away. The sheer audacity of it, the unexpected drama of it all, had him mesmerized. He took a few steps closer, the better to observe the havoc. It was an awesome sight.

The air around him hummed with an almost electric energy. He chuckled, a short, sharp sound. He was utterly entranced by the upheaval.
