Tornado!

Tornado!

Crack! Roxy dove out of the way just as the lightning bolt struck a mailbox. “ Whew! ” Roxy took a deep breath. “ That was a close--” Crack! Another bolt of lightning struck. Roxy jumped out of the way again. “ You think you're so quick, Rocket Girl, “ shouted Weatherman.

“ I’d like to see you try to jump away from this! “ Weatherman threw another Weather Ball into the air. “ Weather Ball, activate! ” he shouted. A strong wind blew, throwing Roxy off her feet. Rain began to pour down. Crack! Boom! More lightning struck.

Roxy jumped to her feet, dodging bolts of lightning. “ Listen, Weatherman, “ shouted Roxy " Your dumb little thunderstorm isn't goingto stop me! " ” Maybe not, ” sad Weatherman with a smirk. “ But I have something that will. “ He threw another Weather Ball into the air.

“ Weather Ball, activate! ’ Roxy felt a change in the air. There was a rumbling sound, and the wind grew stronger. “ Uh-oh. What's happening now?” Roxy wondered. And then she saw it --a huge tornado was whipping down West Street. “ Whoa! ” Roxy screamed as she was swept upward.

She spun around and around. “ I'm getting dizzy! “ she yelled. Roxy heard voices. " Help! " a woman shouted. ” Rocket Girl! Save me! " shouted a man. The tornado had picked up a bus and a taxi along with Roxy. All the passengers were terrifed.
