The End of the World

She gazed out of the cave entrance in considerable disappointment. She had been waiting for the end of the world.

“That’s it?” she asked. “Just a little ‘pop’ and a few pretty lights?”

No one answered her question, so she continued.

“This is completely unacceptable,” she announced. “Someone is going to have to put things right.”

No one volunteered to help, so she rolled up her sleeves and got to work. It was no wonder the world had ended so unimpressively. It hadn’t been much of a world to begin with. This time, she’d make sure it was done right.
