Crisis in Japan

Some boys were playing near the seashore in Tokyo. Suddenly some people who went fishing in the seashore came back. Their trawlers were missing from the sea and two of them have evaporated from the sea shore.

A great earthquake causing a Tsunami of high magnitude has devastated Japan. Those boys went back rushing to the sea shore and then were talking among themselves how the seashore became dangerous, gulping anything that came in the way.

Nikita, a Polish girl, lost her dad in the Tsunami and then asked the people patrolling out there about Makisi,'the trawler' in which her father was going to collect fish.

The crisis in Japan became so big that about 10,000 people died and thousands became homeless. However the Japanese people are a hardworking lot and hopefully will be able to come out of the disaster.
