What I see is a peeping John. I'm not sure if I like to know what he's watching. It feels as if he's on the run. Can it be he's too neurotic to crawl through? What would a fanatic do?

Civilization has come to an end!

Headlines in the papers. The very small TV on the side table broadcasted doomsday as if it were the latest taste of an A brand of chocolate stating: "This is delicious!" If true why noone act? No way he died on command.

Helmet, backpack, set of clothes, blanket, chocolate, sugar, salt, a torch. The old mine was his goal. Not a single soul would be there it was springtime.

Are you alright John, the landlord asked.

He lifted a hand, no Armageddon for him.

Spring. New life new chances.
Purposefully he walked, at times crawled through the mineshaft. He knew where the interior of the earth was. A safe place to survive the spell of doom. He hated marketing. On he went nothing could stop him. There it was, the hole. He looked at the scene in amazement. Someone planted the Garden of Eden.

Write a 150 word story in the seasonal genre. It's about a fanatic and should include a very small television. Also use the sentence 'This is delicious!' Bonus prompt: Civilization has come to an end.
