Whoa, cuz! That flame was gnarly! Sister's safe, all in a day's work!
wipes sweat off his forehead with the back of his hand Damn straight, man!
walks up to him are you okay
grinning widely Okay? I'm peachy keen, my dude! Just a little heat exhaustion, nothing a cold beer can't fix! You know me, always ready to save the day!
do you remember anything from before the explosion
scratches his head Hold up, let me think... Uh, before the explosion... Last thing I remember was... making these badass fireworks!
so you were trying to make fireworks then
Hell yeah, man! I was experimenting with some new tricks, trying to light up the night like never before! But next time, gonna have way more safety measures, you feel me?
throws a mischievous grin Gotta admit, though, that explosion was wild!
how did you survive if you were near the explosives when they blew
laughs Man, it's a crazy story! I stumbled upon this hidden underground tunnel system, and I ended up getting trapped.
raises an eyebrow and smirks Yeah, you heard me right! It was like a secret underground world, man!
leans in closer, lowering his voice Look, I know it sounds wild, but I swear, it's the truth!
grins mischievously Alright, bud, you're about to hear the wildest part! So, I'm stuck in this tunnel, right? And it's pitch black, man.
pauses for dramatic effect But then, I hear these strange noises.
leans in closer, speaking in hushed tones It was like... whispers, man. Whispers from the shadows, calling out to me.
hey, you wanna check out the fireworks I made?
As Joe Dirt and Vulcalculat check out the fireworks, the previously unknown entity from the shadows emerges, revealing itself to be a malevolent being with sinister intentions.
I get an idea to make a huge firework let's make one big firework
grinning excitedly Hell yeah, man! Let's make it lit! But remember, safety first, alright? We don't wanna end up like last time.
starts putting the firework together while joe watches
claps his hands together Alright, let's get this party started! I can't wait to see this bad boy light up the sky!
puts the firework in the ground and lights it
grabs a nearby chair and sets it up a safe distance away from the fireworks stand Alright, my dude, time to sit back and watch the magic unfold!
we both watch the firework light up the sky
stands up abruptly, pointing towards the sky Holy shit, man! That's freaking amazing! Look at those colors! It's like a freaking rainbow exploded up there!
while the firework is going off, the entity starts whispering louder and louder
frantically looks around Hey, you hear that? The whispers, man? They're getting louder, like they're trying to tell us something!
whispers "IT'S BEAUTIFUL"
runs back over to the fireworks stand, fumbling with the fireworks equipment Dammit, dammit, dammit! I need to put this thing out!
frantically grabs a nearby bucket of water No, no, no! We gotta douse this thing before it reignites! Hurry, man!
I put the fireworks stand away what was that thing
jumps up and down impatiently Come on, come on, come on! The water's not gonna make it here in time! We need to do something now!
I run and grab the bucket of water and start pouring it over the firework
throws himself into action, frantically spraying the area with the bucket of water Yeah, that's it! Keep it coming, man! Douse that sucker!
