Here I Will Dance

Born in a flash, before the thunder rolls. Born on a branch of redwood. So high. So far from sweet, sweet underbrush. Born a mere spark. Weak and flickering. The Enemy falling all around me. Falling from the sky. So begins the tale of a wildfire. Born from a flash of lightning. It must struggle against the falling rain in its battle for life. Its joyous dance of death. "Here I Will Dance" - an intense, imaginative fantasy short story told entirely from the viewpoint of a wildfire.
