A Matter of Scale

It roared, sending shockwaves rumbling through the air. Turning, it stomped its feet down hard as it lumbered over the forest, snapping trees like twigs. Gripped with fear, Mark began to run for cover as a giant foot stepped down out of the sky, intent on crushing him.

It shouted, sending vibrations through the air. Turning, it stomped its feet down hard as it lumbered over the field, snapping twigs. Gripped with fear, Mouse began to run for cover as a giant foot stepped down out of the sky, intent on crushing him.

It squeaked, sending ripples through the air. Turning, it stomped its feet down hard as it lumbered over the leaves, twisting them slightly. Gripped with fear, Beetle began to run for cover as a giant foot stepped down out of the sky, intent on crushing him.

It chittered, sending murmurs through the air. Turning, it stomped its feet down hard as it lumbered over the blade of grass, lightly bending it. Underneath, microbes continued happily dividing, blissfully lacking consciousness.
