Chapter 1: Projects I & II
The barnyard was having a party when a tornado touched down.
DJ went outside with a bottle of milk & honey (alcohol for cows).
"Have a drink!" shouted DJ and threw the bottle into the tornado.
He got back under the ground.
A few hours later.
Everyone was outside. The dirt was showing, the fences were down and trees were tore apart. The only non-outside thing on the ground was a fortune cookie. It was still in a wrapper. It wasn't dirty or crunched, but as if they'd just bought it.
"Where the hell's the bottle of milk & honey?" asked Miller.
DJ picked up the fortune cookie and broke it open. On the paper was the words 'DESTINY: TORNADO CHASER' in big bold blue letters.
A few weeks later.
DJ was driving his yellow Dodge Ram when a crop duster came by.
"I know Daisy's probably got her whole crew out there." said DJ. "Hell, days like today's to be expected."
"But she said she signed the papers, right?" asked Rosey.
"That's what she said." said DJ.
"But you don't think so?" asked Rosey.
"No." said DJ. "I think so."
DJ pulled in to a field.
"Sorry I'm late." said DJ.
"I suppose it's okay." said Otis.
"Where's Daisy?" asked DJ. "I need to talk to her."
"She's over by the doppler." said Otis.
"Yeah, damn thing's been acting up." said little Ben.
RV.
JoJo had a song on.
Song: I mistreat you
JoJo: I mistreat you
Song/JoJo: I sure don't mean no harm
JoJo walked out of the RV.
RV megaphone on the roof: I mistreat you girl, I sure don't mean no harm.
DJ walked past Joey's station wagon, which was playing Darling Pretty by Mark Knopfler.
"DJ!" said Joey. "We've been waiting for you, buddy!"
"Hi, Joey!" said DJ.
Blue van with tornado on the side.
Talula (BT's Tornado Mix) plays as Daisy and Miracle work on the doppler.
Sparks fly.
"Dammit!" said Daisy. "This thing is useless!"
DJ walks over to the van.
"Hi, Daisy." said DJ.
"Hey, DJ!" said Daisy.
Daisy banged on the roof.
"Break time!" she said, jumping off the roof.
"Okay, mother!" said Miracle.
"I need the papers." said DJ.
"Got a pen?" asked Daisy, getting the papers out of a black Dodge Ram.
"Aww, sh-!" said DJ and walked over to a white moving van with solar panels on the cab and rims. Miller was on the roof of the box with a chemical suit on. He put big a metal container down in the box.
"What the heck is that? The thermold wagon?"
"This is Project 2." said Miller. "It's designed to shoot liquid nitrogen projectiles into tornadoes. My hopes is that I can freeze tornadoes."
"Brilliant, soldier boy." said DJ. "Hope that works out for ya." he said, sarcastically.
"You don't have faith in it." said Miller, jumping down.
"I thought I did." said DJ.
"Why?" asked Miller.
"That's even impossible for me to do and you know what I'm capable of." said DJ.
"You could at least trust it though." said Miller.
"Okay." said DJ. "I'm sorry, big brother."
"It's okay, baby brother." said Miller.
"So what's Project 1?" asked DJ.
"I'll show you." said Miller and brought DJ back to a black trailer attached to the moving van and opened the door.
"Dorothies 5, 6, 7 and 8." said Miller.
"It looks just like the first four from Twister." said DJ.
"Right-o." said Miller.
"One question." said DJ. "How does the thing get exposed to wind if it's in the trailer."
"When we were in Santa Marya, I observed the design of the bed of your Dodge and how the box thing went down in the bed. I designed the trailer the same way.
"Daisy, there's something wrong here." said Otis.
Daisy walked over.
"There's grass in the lens." said Daisy. "You'll have to be getting that out, or you'll be sketching the tornadoes." she said and turned to DJ. "News channel says there's gonna be a breakout of tornadoes. They said they haven't seen anything like it."
"Perfect!" said Miracle getting off the phone. "There's storm activity!" she said to Daisy.
"Alright guys, let's wrap it up!" said Daisy.
"Dorothy V ready!" said Miller.
"Dorothy VI ready!" said Otis.
"Dorothy VII ready!" said Miracle.
"Dorothy VIII ready!" said Daisy.
Everyone got in their cars and headed down the road.
