Destroy

Mnemonic

A tsunami tips a slide, propelling the drunkard on it to the ground, where there's a fire waiting to destroy her.

Hints

Even though she made it off the slide and escaped the tsunami, she still ended up in a fire. Seems like the world just wanted to destroy this drunkard.

Mnemonic

One could say this drunkard met (めつ) her fate.

Hints

Strangely, she'd just came from a Mets game. (めつ, get it?) So maybe that's why she had such bad luck.
