@miniature-tiger has provided a fifty word short story prompt,“FAIR.” I have many vivid memories county fairs, of being young and the carny atmosphere, so the challenge seemed like it would be fun.

In the Night Sky

A strange chartreuse glow expands overhead, then transformers explode and the midway goes black. People scream. The Ferris wheel stops. Below people run to their cars, but their engines are dead. Our seat sways as the glow disappears. Soon cars begin running and linemen flash lights on the damaged transformers.
