Soggazoic Extinction Event

The Soggazoic Extinction Event was the deadliest extinction event in history, and caused the end of the Floppasaurs and therefore the Soggazoic Era.
It wiped out 75% of all species in existence, including:
Sogylosaurus
Googeratops
F.rex
Flopalodon 
Sogonites
Plingiosaurs
And 6.5 million others.
It was caused by the impact of a giant asteroid in what is now the Gulf of Flopxico.
== Events ==
The day of the Soggazoic extinction event was normal, however multiple Floppasaurs noticed a large star in the sky. Obviously, via lack of intelligence they didn't care, or even notice. Day after day, it became larger until it looked like another moon, and disappeared behind Flearths shadow. 
In the morning, the object is back but this time MUCH bigger and brighter. It would take the asteroid only 2 seconds to pass through the atmosphere and into the ground. 
Once it hit the ground, it vaporized and released the energy of billions of nuclear weapons all at once. A giant white sphere grows over the Gulf of Flopxico, and bedrock melts into plasma as the ground is shifted and warped into a crater 50 kilometers deep and 100 kilometers wide.. The thermal radiation of the explosion immediately burns everything in 1500 thousand kilometer radius. The crust bounces back and forms a temporary mountain, while an insane amount of material is blasted into the higher atmosphere or space. In minutes, a magnitude 11 earthquake hits, and it POSSIBLY shaked gigantic lava fields in Flindia and caused volcanic eruptions. The extreme violence of the explosion causes a shockwave that moves at several thousand kilometers per hour and shreds and launched any thing that isnt a mountain hundrends of kilometers away. Eventually, the temporary mountain collapses and causes tsunamis thousands of kilometers tall, drowning huge amounts of earth. However, the debris catapulted into space, will either orbit Flearth for thousands of years, hit the Soog, or even Bafy. But a lot falls down to earth, heating up the atmosphere to either hundreds or thousands of degrees, killing a lot of plants and animals that werent sheltered. Together with the debris, it ignited entire forests and caused gigantic wildfires. 
The day draws to an end, and most lifeforms are dead. But it gets even worse. 
The explosion created a titanic plume of vaporized material that spreads across the world. Together with soot and aerosols, the planet is covered in darkness, with only the remaining fires lighting up the place. Whatever plants somehow survived the fires will now most likely die to a lack of sunlight. The oceans were very hard hit, with 90% of plankton killed, resulting in mass starvation, ultimately ending the age of the marine reptiles and soggamites that used to rule the seas. The survivours will be hard pressed to survive due to the lack of food and cold, but at least fungi are having a good time. 
== Aftermath ==
The Soggazoic Extinction Event killed off the floposaurs, but lead the way for other creatures.
Mammals, long pressed by the dinosaurs, were now free to rule world, and birds which are considered the last remaining floposaurs.
Who knows. Maybe without the asteroid, we would never be here.
