The earth wakes up
The first faint rays of dawn touched the village. Moko and Mei-Li were both deeply asleep. Suddenly, a strange sound was heard. A low rumbling sound, muffled and far away, as if a storm was approaching… Underground.
Then the whole village started to tremble. Come on Mei-Li, we've got to go see what's happening, said Moko.
Everything around them seemed to be trembling The trees, the houses… The whole countryside. Meï-Li was trembling too, in fear. Let's go down to the beach. Maybe we can hide there, she said. At the beach, Moko pulled Mei-Li behind a large rock.
