Ten tongues of fired poured off of Valerie's hands, one from each finger, and began to rapidly swirl together to form a singular ball of roaring fire. That ball grew and grew, until it was the size of a baseball and the fire from her hands cut off. All of this happening over the course of a single second.
The fiery baseball crackled with barely contained power before finally it launched itself. A trail of flames was left in its flight path as it illuminated the long, metallic runway wherever it passed.
After 20 metres of uninterrupted flight, the balls structure collapsed in on itself and it erupted into a roaring explosion of devastating flames. The force of the explosion caused the bunker to shudder ever so slightly, but that was all.
Once the flames dispersed, there was no smoke left behind nor did the metal around it look even remotely hot. But that did not do anything to minimise Percy's excitement.
