Meanwhile, Volcano City has been changed beyond repair. It will never be the same... Mayor of Volcano city: Hello?(thunder) Mayor's wife: (coughs) what? where(coughs) are we?

By pcwhiz24,

Scientists are absolutely shocked that it's only been 20 years since the 2nd eruption. it happened without warning, there was no time to evacuate. Scientists are climbing the volcano to see wy it erupted. Meanwhile... I was laying down on the ground. When I opened my eyes, I saw the sun, and sky.

From we last left off: Suddenly, the volcano erupts: The eruption isn't as bad as the last one, but the pyroclastic flow was what got the city. The Eruption causes chaos. Then, the ash mixed with the weather, and produced ashy tornadoes. The city was in total chaos: The earthquakes tore through town, and citizens ran for their lives. They fear that the volcano will explode again, and tear up the island. Gas mains exploded and houses meltIed. I saw the ash covering the sky in the mayor's mansion front yard....

Volcano City need help. During it's rebuild, it couldn't produce enough water or power for the city, and now volcano city is dying. In desperation to avoid total economic failure, the citizens built a road that would connect to Oakwood, Woodland, and LakeWood. These small towns produce enough power for volcano city to grow, but the question is, How do you connect an island to 3 cities that is separated by a large body of water? The mayor terraformed, and these are the results: Desperate times call for...

Following the horrible event, the city is once again rebuilding. The rubble of the old town is used for building the new volcano city. As the city grows, the rubble is cleared up for more room to build, just like trees. The city won't have to worry about the volcano for over a century, but the city needs power, and water. It's going to have to trade with the other cities. It's time to see the other towns: Oakland is a nice elegant town with mostly Brick streets. It produces tons of power. It's kind of...

The Doomed City

By pcwhiz24,

A new and last suburban area: Closer: Smoke is coming out of the volcano! Evacuation has began, and people are panicking. Traffic is increasing on the highway side that leads out of town as earthquakes hit the volcano. Citizens are leaving the town as time runs out. The 2nd path out of town has been destroyed by an earthquake, so the only way out is a six lane highway. How do you evacuate an entire city on one little highway? There's no time to answer, people are fleeing the town. odds are, only a quarter...

Volcano city's last eruption is now a distant memory, and for years the city has grown with no concerns about the next eruption, until today. The volcano could erupt any day now, and the whole city is in danger. It has become potentially unsafe for scientists to go up the volcano. Going up the volcano would mean risking your life. We recently had an accident with the hot springs. A couple was relaxing in the hot springs when the magma came up. They had third degree burns all over the body. Now, the hot...

By pcwhiz24,

After an earthquake struck one side of the volcano, a group of citizens went to city hall to complain that it's the city is unsafe and they should make an evacuation plan right away.

Rumors have been spreading about the next eruption, the city's doomsday. They say that the eruption will occur tomorrow, which at first...
