Boom-De-Yada Science - Danger Shop, Wednesday, Period 1 [Week 12]

[worsethanaunts.livejournal.com]

Upon entering the Danger Shop, the students found themselves on the side of a mountain. They weren't dangling or anything like that. There was a perfectly good landing to fit them all and a perfectly good (if steep) path leading down to the village below and the water beyond that. Everything was grand as it could be, except for the fact that the mountain had smoke wafting up from its top.

The Doctor waited for the door to close behind the last of them. The ground rumbled underneath their feet. He gave them a look that spelled out their doom, namely a 'this is going to be fuuuuun' smile. Turning to look up at the mountain, he pointed out the smoke. "Volcano. Don't die. Have fun!"

The rumbling happened again and the top of the volcano exploded into life, sending burning rocks and a spray of lava, smoke and ash into the air.

With that, he broke into a trot down the steep mountain path. Anyone not wanting to deal with lava would have been wise to follow.

Claudia broke into a full blown, no holds barred, barely managing to keep from just falling over and rolling down the hill run, throwing in the occasional attempt to hurdle over various rocks.

It's possible she most closely resembled one of the dudes from that Scottish cheese roll thing.
