Horribly Timed Explosion

Boom!

A large explosion startled them awake from their moment of passion. Julian quickly pulled away and ran down to the living room to see what had caused such an explosion.

In the distance, he could see a small smoke stack rising beyond the forest.

Rayne came down to see what was happening. "Do you see anything?" she asked curiously.

Julian pointed toward the pillar of smoke in the distance. "Looks like something blew up over there. Should we go check it out?"

Rayne nodded and brought over another small space heater to use in the driver's cabin while Julian started the RV.

He drove the RV down the winding mountain road, careful to avoid frozen sections. It took them a few hours to fully descend from the mountains and reach the first small village where the smoke pillar was coming from.

Julian drove through the center of the town while Rayne held on to her pistol, ready to shoot if there was any danger.
