Two dueling tornado chasers compete to impress a famous self-taught scientist and storm-chaser, follow in his footsteps, and become his renowned protege. 


                                            ***
Twenty year old Halle Brennan's obsession with mega storms was born out of intense grief and feelings of powerlessness after her mother, Magenta, died in a sudden tornado. Dissimilarly, her nemesis, James Winter only embraced his famous father's storm chasing legacy out of duty.

Despite a shoestring budget and and her youth, Halle exhibits an uncanny ability to track down deadly twisters. With her scientific mind and uncanny intuition, she intimidates James and his wealthy cohorts who rely on technical equipment and an expensive armor-plated all terrain vehicle instead of sheer guts and expertise.

As a deadly storm descends on the Oklahoma plains, Halle, James and her best friends Amy and Naseem, are thrown into a monster, rain wrapped tornado that wants to kill everyone in its path.

Pursuit | Twisters (2024) by RachelGBWriter

Isabella 'Bella' Harding was born to chase, and raised to make a difference. It wasn't easy following in the footsteps of her mother Callie, and grandparents Bill and Jo, but she and her best friend Kate wanted to do more than increase warning times - they wanted to disrupt a tornado. Bella lived by her mum's old motto: 'It's only crazy if you fail.' And Bella never failed. Until she did. After that day, she kept herself under the radar from other storm chasers, using her old aunt Meg's surname Greene to keep anyone at bay. Bella Greene. But it wasn't enough, and so she moved away, cutting off contact from everyone who meant something to her. Everything that made her who she was. Callie had always tried to keep Bella away from the chasing life. 'Stick to the lab and no one gets hurt.' But she knew she couldn't keep Bella away forever, and now seeing Bella so broken, wishes she could turn back time and fix what happened to Bella and Kate's friends...but Callie knew better than anyone: you can't chase the past. She had to let her daughter ride this storm herself and come out the other side. Javi hadn't heard from Bella since the day the barn doors closed. The day Bella swore she was done chasing. But he needed her, and deep down, she needed her old life back...but was she ready to take it?

Whisper in the Wind ▸ Tyler Owens by ProudToBeSarcastic

Once, long ago, Zahra Howard liked to consider herself fearless. Whether it was a car going faster than humanly possible, illegally racing down the rural roads of Oklahoma, or even chasing its tornadoes. She never seemed to fear anything. Until she did... And after that, she promised she'd never go back. She promised she'd never get that close again. Until, five years later, while she's busy sticking to that promise with determination, the past comes knocking on her door, asking for a favor. She could say no. It would be easy to say no. But the thing about her was once she cared; it was hard to let go. Even if she tried. And somehow, that made saying no harder than the alternative. Which is how she broke her own promise. How she ended up back here in Oklahoma, and right during an unprecedented tornado outbreak ravaging the place she'd once called home. ----- Twisters (2024) Twist in the Tale Series - Standalone Tyler Owens x OC

Four Walls (Book One) ✔️ by neurotick

"You ungrateful bitch. I keep a roof over your head, and this is the thanks I get?" "You could have killed her," I retort, trying to muster up confidence that I don't possess. "What if she goes to the cops, Dad? That bruise on her face is enough to get you arrested and charged with assault." "What? You mean when she tripped over the mess you made in the kitchen?" His smile is so wicked that it chills me to my core. "She ain't going to the cops. Hell, she'll probably be back here tomorrow." "You're a bastard," I whisper, tears filling my eyes. "No wonder Mom left! She probably couldn't bear to spend another second with-" I'm pushed to the floor. I scramble backwards as he approaches me, his cheeks scarlet with rage, his pupils the size of needle points. In fourteen years, I've never seen him this mad. I've really done it this time. -------------------- (COMPLETED) Life is hard when nowhere feels like home. For Layla Dodds, there is only one goal: survival.

Raven Eye Records by rhavnn

A passing grade for two major subjects was hard enough... but with serial eyes watching closely in every turn and corners? It was never about school and graduation anymore. Mitch tossed her last smoke grenade, obscuring the figures in black's line of sight before dashing around a sharp corner in the rain-slicked alley. Echoes of hurried footsteps and shadows revealed an exhausted, frantic group of teens fleeing from the agile figures in crow masks. "I'm out of stuff!" Mitch yelled. "Targets locked on sight!" growled the alpha of the masked figures into a radio. "Initiate Bird Cage. Detain 18-1-22-5-14 at all costs!" crackled the reply, interrupted by static. While one figure lagged, two pairs scurried up the walls with a nightmarish grace. Four more, forming a diamond-like formation, flanked the alpha like a coordinated wolf pack. Mitch, startled by their precision, urged, "Use any disruptions you can!" The alpha raised a hand, signaling a devastating assault of flames, lightning, earth chunks, and plasma bolts. Luna and Remon split, using prismatic energy to glide along the walls, narrowly avoiding the onslaught. Remon faltered, nearly hit, but Rune quickly pulled her to safety. "We need to make it to Unilav Street for our checkpoint!" Mitch gasped, her breath shallow as they sprinted towards their elusive goal. Not until those non-adventurous days grew thorns.
