6 parts Complete Thunder rolled heavily across the sky, and Dreamer looked up from her writing to see that the lights inside Thunder were on, beckoning her to come inside. A few raindrops fell from the sky, and she quickly took her piece of paper out of the typewriter to preserve the ink. At that moment, a flash of white cracked across the sky, coming down, down, down. A bright bolt of lightning zigzagged down from the heavens, thin and white. With the pass of a single heartbeat, the single blink of an eye, all was quiet. A small stream of smoke rose slowly from Thunder's bed.
The valiant truck twitched and moaned, small arcs of electricity passing through his undercarriage to his roof. His headlights flashed on and off by themselves, over and over, until they stayed on. Thunder's engine sputtered to a steady hum. His headlights flickered, the small lights above his windshield visor illuminating themselves as well.
The whisper of a word on the howling wind could be heard, repeating over and over: Thunder, Thunder, Thunder...
