Skate: You got an alert on your phone saying dangerous thunderstorm warning. You thought it was nothing so you ignored it. Little did you know, you shouldn't have ignored it. The wind was terrible and it was strong. You could tell stuff was being thrown along outside. You saw huge things of lightning and it made you jump every time. Skate was concerned about you but you kept telling him that you were fine. Thunder growled right after the huge lightning scaring you even more. You were never scared of storms, you have always loved storms, they have always put you to sleep. This storm just wasn't doing the trick. "Come on, let's go down to the basement." Skate would tell you but you would decline. After about a couple of minutes you finally agreed to go down to the basement. The power went out by now and you were definitely scared. Skate would get a candle and some lights while you sat on the couch in a ball. Skate walked over to you, wrapping you up in his arms and keeping you safe. 

Sammy: It's winter. There really hasn't been much snow fall lately. Which is unusual. It's always snowing and it never stops. You put on the news one night and kept watching just until the weather came on. You and Sammy were sitting on the couch at the time, when you noticed that it was starting to snow. "As you can see, it's just snowing for a little bit now, but there is a big snow storm on it's way. So if I were you, I'd get the extra blankets, flashlights and anything else you think you would need when the storm hits. It's suppose to have power outage too." the weatherman had said. You got up off of the couch and walked to the closet and grabbed as much blankets you could possibly grab. "Honey, I don't think we will need all of those blankets. If the power goes out, we can just get a fire going." he said to you and you looked at him. "Yeah I have I question for you, how would we keep getting the firewood for the fire? It's going to be to wet if we bring it in now." you said to him and he nodded his head. "Okay, then I will go upstairs and get some more blankets then. Can you go and see if you can find any of the flashlights?" he asked you and you nodded your head. You walked to the closet grabbing any flashlight that you could find and you went and found the lighter too just in case you needed to light some candles. You two came back together, putting the blankets on the chairs and the flashlights on the coffee table. You two waited until that snow storm hit and when it came, it hit hard. You two enjoyed watching the snowfall together. 

Gilinsky: You two decided to go ahead and go to Texas for the weekend, just to get away. The bad part about it, you had no idea that there was bad storms coming along the way. You two were out and about hanging around looking at the different cultures that hang around in all sorts of different parts of Texas. You two were walking past this store that had a radio on and you couldn't help but hear that there was sightings of tornadoes happening around the area and it was more likely to start taking shelter. You and Jack have never experienced tornadoes before and you both wished that you never started experiencing them now. You could tell that something was coming, the wind was starting to pick up and the sky wasn't looking too pretty either. The temperature seemed to drop all of the sudden. Jack looked off in the distance and you followed where his gazed was going. You looked out across the field and you could see something up ahead. "Oh my god. We got to go find shelter. We all need to go find shelter now." Jack said as he was hurried like. "Where is there a place that is good for shelter?" You asked a man that was just sitting there not moving a muscle. "Over here you two. Come on. If you want to be safe, please follow me." a lady had said over to you both. She waved her hand in a motion to follow her. You both walked around the building and noticed that there was an underground shelter. "Come on, get in here. You'll be safe." she said and you and Jack walked down with her. Jack was the last one and he shut the door and locked it. You knew that locking it wasn't going to do anything good.  "How long do you think we will be down here for?" you has asked and she looked at you. "Well whenever we hear on the radio that it is all clear." she said and you nodded your head. You could hear the tornado coming and go over you all. Sooner or later the radio had said that it was safe to go ahead and go. You and Jack went straight to your hotel room soon after and packed your bags up and checked out and went home. You two had enough and never wanted to experience that ever again. 

Johnson: You two were at a friends house, just hanging out. You were suppose to have a BBQ and have some fun in the sun but that actually never happened. When you and Jack had got to the friend's house, it was nothing but sunny. As your friend went outside to start cooking on the grill, he came inside soaked. "Well doesn't look like we will be having a BBQ on the grill or having any fun in the sun today or as of right now." your friend said and you just shrugged it off. "Oh well, doesn't mean we still can't enjoy spending some time together." Jack said and you nodded your head. Your's and Jack's friend's wife decided that she was just going to go ahead and make some stuff on the stove and you didn't realize that she was doing all of it by herself. The football game was on and you decided to just let the guys go and do their little thing while you went out to the kitchen to help. "You think it will ever stop raining?" she asked you and you looked over at her after you finished washing your hands. "Um I am actually not sure. It's raining pretty hard out there right now. I won't be surprised if it doesn't stop raining." you had said and she nodded her head. Just as you said that, your phone went off letting you know that there was going to be some flash flood warnings going out until 8 that night. "And as it says, it won't stop raining. We're suppose to get some flash flood warnings and the end of it won't be until 8 tonight." you had said and she nodded her head. Well the warnings were right. You looked out the window and you noticed that it was starting to flood. You walked the back of the house and looked out the back door to see what the backyard was looking like. They have a creek in the back of the house and as you could see, it was starting to flow over. "Does your basement ever flood or your garage or anything that matters?" you asked as you walked into the living room. "Um no just our yard floods, that's just about it." your friend said and you nodded your head. "Well in that case, that's what your yard is doing right now." you had said and he looked at you. "Eh oh well, let it be. We just need to get some pipes to fix that." he said and you nodded your head making your way back into the kitchen. It came to be that time when you and Jack had to started heading out and going home. You were tired and you couldn't wait to get into bed. As you and Jack walked outside you noticed that the street was all flooded. You two walked back inside and closed the door. "Yeah, if it is okay with you, is there any way we could just spend the night here until the water goes away off the roads?" Jack asked and they nodded their heads. "Yeah go ahead. You know where everything is. Don't be afraid to just help yourselves." she said and you two nodded your heads and sat down and just enjoyed your night and not caring about what was going on outside.
