The house on the hill

The house on the hill neglected and old, but still standing and holding on top of the mountain.  A darkness of clouds arriving in the background, below the mountain. A staircase curving around the mountain, leading to an old wooden structure, standing on nothing but wooden pillars. The mill still turning when the wind blows against each of the four wings turning the old rusty turbine underneath the floor of the mill. The old water tank gathering algae and collecting water and dew from the skies above, the tank sat on the back of this old houses roof next to the tower prevailing through the roof, the roof over shadowing the clothes line, on the line clothes flapping effortlessly in the winds direction. The old house has 5 visible closed windows, and is only has 1 floor, a death trap stuck on a mountain.

Section B (blown off the mountain)
Suddenly, a strong wind approaches and tiles from this old poor houses roof start to dislocate themselves from their nails, the door starts beating itself against the frame. The mill spins out of control  as it flies off into a distance and the floor board one by one fly away  twisting and spiraling into the air, the mountains surface starts to crumble, the pillars crack and get  split into two as the house is blown off and shattering to a million pieces of wood in mid air, the tank of water bursts and spills liters and liters of water that sprays into a mist of tiny drops forming a small clustered rainbow as the fragments of the house disappears into the background , the mountain gives in and crumbles to the bottom of the peak.
