Overview: he chubby fists gripped the silken cords.
‘Now pull!’ cried Mrs Braxton.
The opposing teams took the strain.
A leaping flash and a blasting roar. The children were hurled, writhing and screaming, over each other.
Up from the middle of the cracker leapt a rosy shaft of flame which, as it reached the ceiling, seemed to flatten its peak so that it resembled a great snake of fire which turned and hurled itself against the tree in a blinding embrace. There was a fierce sustained ‘Hiss,’ the tree flamed like a torch, and all the fairy globes upon it burst and splintered. And then the roaring torch cast itself down amongst the screaming chaos. For a moment the great pot, swathed in green, was a carmine cauldron and its paint streamed like blood upon the floor. Then the big room was a dream of fire and those within it driven wildly from its heat.
