After being set on fire this is what it: felt like, smelt like, sounded like and what it looked like: 

As I took my cardigan off for my own safety as it my have caught of fire, I wet my hands from my fingers to my elbows so the water could protect me from getting burnt. I scooped as much bubbles as I could hold then slowly walked towards Mr Stock, as he got closer with the lighter the more nervous I got, he placed the lighter under my hand and and lit the huge flame that rose to the roof , the orange and red flame grew bigger by the second. I wanted to pull my hands away from the flames but I knew not to. Then suddenly I felt a short burning on my hand then it faded away fast. I smelt a strong odour from the gas that increased. I later saw a black ring rise to the top of the Laboratory. The heat from the flames got colder and soon vanished.
