I got the idea for this fic while watching the local news here in Chicago.
They were talking about some deadly weather that hit parts of Illinois,
Kansas, Minnesota, Indiana, and Oklahoma and I was thinking that Chandler
was working in Oklahoma so maybe I could make a story out of it.
This fic takes place in the present. Chandler and Monica are married. Chandler didn't quit his job in Tulsa and they never went to a fertility clinic. Monica has just found out she's pregnant but hasn't told Chandler yet. Rachel is living with Joey but she's dating Ross and Phoebe is dating Joey. Charlie doesn't exist in this fic.

Chapter 1:Weather Watch
Chandler sighed softly as he sat in his office so many miles away from his home and his family. He hated being out here in the country where the only people he knew were the few he worked with. He'd been a city boy all his life and that's the way he liked it. He didn't think he could wait two more whole days to go home to New York. He missed Monica. He couldn't wait to hold her in his arms, to kiss her, to make love to her and maybe even make a baby this time. That was the only reason he kept this stupid job. The pay was good and hopefully they'd have a baby on the way soon and they'd need the money.
He looked at the photo of Monica and their friends sitting on the desk then he glanced out the window. It was only two in the afternoon but the sky was so dark and the rain was falling heavily. He wondered what the weather was like in New York. He glanced out the window one last time before getting back to the paper work on the desk.
Half an hour later his coworker Wendy came rushing in. Chandler looked up. "Wendy I already told you I love my wife" he said. "Chandler they're evacuating all the upper floors everyone is going down to the basement" she rambled. "What, but why" he asked. "A tornado its headed right for us Gina in accounting saw it from her window" she told him. Chandler grabbed his briefcase. He took the photos from his desk and shoved them in his briefcase. He and Wendy were headed for the door when they both heard a whistling sound very close by. They turned and saw a huge gray funnel right outside the window. It broke through the windows sending shattered glass and papers everywhere.
Chandler grabbed Wendy and pulled her out the door just as his desk hit where they'd been standing just seconds earlier. The funnel was ripping through the building like scissors through paper. Everything was blowing and crashing around them. Wendy was trembling. "We're...we're gonna die aren't we" she whimpered. "Not if I can help it" he said. He suddenly remembered something he'd learned in grade school. "Come on" he said grabbing her hand. He pulled her down the hall away from the funnel. He pulled her down on the ground. "Get against the wall and cover your head like this" he said showing her what to do. She nodded. She did as he showed her. He got down beside her and did the same. He reached for her hand. She squeezed it tight as they heard the funnel approaching them at high speed.
Chandler closed his eyes and thought of Monica and his friends as he felt the powerful winds of the funnel hit them. Something flew through the air hitting Chandler causing him to lose his grip on Wendy's hand the last thing her heard was her screaming his name as everything went black.
Chapter 2: The Aftermath....Will Chandler be alright? How will Monica and the gang react when they learn of the disaster in Tulsa?...Coming Soon!!
Author's Note: Hello Little Ones. Here's yet another new fic by me! I hope this is good! I've been hearing about tornadoes and the destruction and devastation they've left behind in all these cities around the US all weekend so I decided to turn it into a fic. I myself have never been in a tornado and hope to never be in one! KOW!! But I have seen specials on TLC and movies about them so I guess I know some stuff. That thing Chandler learned in grade school was something I learned. You get against the wall and kneel down covering your head. We had them in the spring they were tornado drills. Anyway please read and review. Thanx!
