Irrigation

We passed an irrigation tank on a tractor-trailer. With a casual flick of his hand, Percy caused the side of the tank to rupture. A wall of water crashed into the three nosoi behind us.


Somewhere to my left, the ground shook. A miniature geyser erupted from the field. Percy crawled towards it desperately. He thrust his face in the water, washing away the smoke.
My eyesight began to dim.
Percy struggled to his feet. He ripped out the source of the geyser – an irrigation pipe – and turned the water on me.
