THE BIG BANG THEORY

Deafening explosion ensued from the reaction. A box of sodium crystals and a sufficient amount of water could make their lives end up in the backyard.

But... water? The flask contained hydrogen peroxide, not water! This filled upon the minds of all of the three. Just when one of them cursed once more, they were enlightened.

" DAMN, that thing!! For f*cks' sake how can I, the most knowledged chemist in the city, forget that?! " he roared like a madman.

Quite careless, indeed! Hydrogen peroxide was an unstable compound, once exposed , it would immediately turn to water as an oxygen atom left the system. Hence, the once H²O² became H²O within a flicker of a split second!

What was more, all their stuff were left, and of course contained those highly explosive ones. They still had to struggle to the exit, which was already near them. Suddenly..

Boom!

All their chemist stuff were swallowed by the flames. A bang followed the boom and weakening to a thud.

Bang!

All the shelves consecutively fell , like a dominoes crashing and falling!

What bad luck could they get more?

However, before one of them could react, one shelf full of corrosive acids fell on the three of them. The acid almost with a pH¹ of 1 can freely hasten their journey to the end.

And immediately after that, more big bangs followed, completely ebbing their lives away.

Clearly, this night ended up to be a night of Big Bang, which was bound in space but actually happened on Earth!

A/N - 1 - potential hydrogen - the lower the value, the higher acidity, whereas the opposite happens for alkalinity.
