Jacob was enjoying the first decent hotdog he'd had in a number of weeks as he watched the gathering group. "Hump. Change. It's always how they'll change the world. Yet the world is still the same as it has been. Little steps people." He stuffed the remainder of the hotdog into his mouth and chewed as he hopped up grabbing his jeans jacket. "Little stepsss...." He trailed off looking at the sky as it started to change color. "Oh no. Not again." He thought and looked around for a shelter of some kind. Green sky meant tornado. No funnel yet but it was coming. He always seemed to have the bad luck of being in just the wrong place at just the wrong time. He was busy looking down when the streaks came and he never saw what hit him in the back driving him into the ground with the force of a piledriver and knocking himsenseless.<br/>...............................................<br/>"Oh man... my head is killing me." He groaned and rolled over and looked up at the night sky. He sat up and winced as something pulled in his back. He reached back and felt he back through the large burned hole in the back. "What the hell!" He jumped up and tried to look at his back and succeded in just making himself dizzy. He felt around and around and couldn't find anything wrong... but there was a large scorch area of his shirt missing. "Ok Jake... what happened? Something hit you. Ok... then what? I... don't... know. Scorch mark? No pain. Burned shirt... damnit I liked this shirt! It was comfortable. Focus, but I'm not hurt. Ok..." He scooped up his jacket and checked the pockets. All his stuff was still there. He couldn't have been out that long. He slung the jacket on and covered up the burned shirt. He'd check it out more completely when he got back to his apartment. That was about when he noticed that a lot of other people were also on the ground and starting to come to. "What just happened to everyone" He said stunned as he looked around. Medical teams seemed to be helping people up and he made a partial step towards one before changing his mind.
