Montoverra was in utter chaos tonight.
Sirens rang wildly in every direction as terrified people flooded the streets below the city hill, screaming and crying while smoke swallowed the skyline.
St. Catherine's Hospital was burning.
One of the upper floors had exploded so violently that entire sections of the building had collapsed into themselves, concrete and steel crashing downward in a horrifying avalanche.
Fire raged through shattered windows and emergency alarms screamed endlessly into the night.
Somewhere beneath all that destruction, people were still trapped inside.
