Storm Surge

Ollie agrees to help Javi with a story, but his desire for new tech distracts him from his promise--and the villains are happy to exploit his obsession.

*My POV* 

We were at BuzzBlast waiting for Ollie. I was comforting Javi. When we saw Ollie walk in. "Dude, where have you been?" Javi asked him. "You were supposed to pick up samples for Javi's story, but you never showed, so J-Borg came up with a plan B." I said as I gestured to J-Borg. Ollie took the headphone off his ear.

"Something is starting to happen. Let's watch a little longer." J-Borg said. "Oh, we're literally watching paint dry." Jane said as she walked away from the camera. "Oh shoot! Sorry, man. I totally forgot I was meant to do that. These babies arrived in store today, so I had to pick them up." Ollie said before walking off, causing Javi and I to follow him.

"Seriously, dude? So instead of helping me, you were buying new headphones?" Javi asked. "Hey, these are noise-cancelling, solar rechargeable, and they would have sold out." Ollie said as we walked over to the others. "What was wrong with your old ones?" Javi asked. "What?" Ollie asked. 

"He said 'What was wrong with your old ones?'." Izzy said as she spoke loudly for him to hear. "Well, my old ones were...what do you call it? Old." Ollie said. "Oh!" Izzy said playfully. "I'm all about the new tech. I know you get the importance of quality audio...For your music, right?" Ollie asked and Javi shrugged.

"This sounds like last week's new phone with a better-quality screen." Amelia said as Izzy and I laughed. "And what about your new phone watch?" Zayto asked. "Smartwatch, thank you very much. Check it out." Ollie said as he pushed something. "Well, I think we may have created the most boring BuzzBlast segment ever. Javi, I really need you to complete the stories you promise." Jane said.

"I'm so sorry, Jane. Ollie was supposed to drop off the samples two hours ago." Javi said. "Is this for the new vegetable hybrid you mentioned. Half pickle, half onion?" Jane asked. "Yeah, punions!" Javi said. Jane sighed. "Well...Despite the fact that it would chance the face of hamburgers as we know it, cancel it. I've got something even more important for you to cover." Jane said as she gestured Javi to come over.

"There's been a strange storm lingering over Pine Ridge Bay all week. The weather people can't determine what's causing it. I want a feature for this afternoon's livestream. Maybe a nice interview with an expert." Jane said as she began walking off. "For real? I'm covering weather?" Javi asked confused. "Um, hell-ur? Super-awesome weird weather. Get on it!" Jane said before walking off. 

"Like she said, this isn't normal weather. It's caused by some freaky energy surge. It's not even her field, but my mom's all over it. The electrical storm's too dangerous for boats and planes, so this morning we prepped her submarine drone to search underwater." Ollie explained. "Pine Ridge Bay? That's where the Nexus Prism dove into the sea." Zayto pointed out.

"The Morphin' Masters sent it to look for something, but we ever found out what." Zayto said. "True. They might be connected." Amelia and I said. "Ollie, do you think I can interview your mom?" Javi asked hopefully. Ollie scoffed. "No way. She's busy gathering data from her sub drone. You could interview me instead. Trust me. I helped Mom build that drone. I'm practically an expert." Ollie said.

"Okay, sold." Javi said smiling. "And if we're lucky, Dr. Akana might find a clue about what the Prism was doing on Earth." Zayto said hopefully. "Maybe. I better check on her progress. I'll be back for the interview." Ollie said before he began walking off. "Okay. I really wanna do a good job on this, so be on time. 2 o'clock!" Javi said. "2 o'clock. I promise." Ollie said before he put his headphones on the right way. 

*3rd POV*

Ollie soon made it to his Mom. "Hey, Mom. Find anything?" Ollie asked. "Well, the sub drone's still scouring the floor of the bay. She's doin' her best, but it'll take a while on my old gal. There is a lot of data to crunch." Dr. Akana said. "Well, if the laptop is slowing us down, why not get a new one? I saw the lates X335 model at the store earlier, and it was one sale." Ollie said.
