One day in Rainyville, it was it’s normal daily forecast, rain, rain, rain,
which is precipitation. Until one day it stopped raining. Every little
critter in Rainyville knew exactly what was happening.
The two outcasts Eliza the evil elephant and mustachio the mouse came to
destroy the “The water city.” But all of Rainyville knew that Jumanji
the giraffe and Tornito the turtle would come to the rescue. Everyone
knew that they would be safe and sound
Even though danger was lurking everyone lived their average lives. They
all new that Tornito and Jumanji would save the day. That is what the
two of them always do.
That day in Rainyville all the little critters heard thumping throughout the
town. It was Eliza yelling “No more water for you little bugs!” She
came stomping down and drinking all the run off and ground water
into her trunk.
Her evil friend Mustachio came along stopping the evaporation,
precipitation and transpiration even though he didn’t know it. The
city of Rainyville was getting worried as the bubble covered the city
taking away 3 out of the 6 cycles. What should rainyville do?
All of a sudden Tornito and Jumanji come to the rescue. But they were to
late! The evil team only had to take over condensation cycle in order
to take over Rainyville.
Now that the evil team had 5 out of the 6 cycles the land was soon to be
taken over. But then Tornito had an idea. He got the 2 biggest corks
anyone had ever seen before.
Then Tornito flew up through the bubble popping it with his pointy tail.
Which made Mustachio scared and scampered away. Which made
Eliza wonder where he went.
But before Eliza could find mustachio Jumanji and Tornito jammed the 2
corks up Eliza's trunk. Which made her stop taking the runoff and the
ground water. Jumanji and Tornito both saved the day.
Then as a celebration for the hero's it started to rain. Making the ground
moist again. All the lakes, runoff, rivers, and much more were stored
with water.
This city was happy once again. Rainyville had there normal forecast of
rain, rain, rain. Also the water cycle was back and running like runoff..
But without Tornito and Jumanji the town of Rainyville wouldn’t be
called Rainyville. As for Mustachio and Eliza they were both together
again. But the only thing was the both were in jail for life.
Definitions
Condensation: water vapor cools it forms a liquid that can fall to the
earth
Precipitation: water that moves from the atmosphere to the land and
oceans
Runoff: water that falls on to a mountain and is carried by a river
Ground water: water that may stay in the ground for hundreds or even
thousands of years
Evaporation: the sun’s heat causes water to change from liquid to vapor
Transpiration: evaporation through plants or animals
