Blown Away, Part 2. A windy illustrated story I made in 2016.

Continued from part 1.

Just then the ladies heard a very loud roaring and howling behind them. They both looked towards from where the wind was blowing, seeing the sky have darkened and even more debris flying in the wind and a devastating wave of wind heading towards them, making the grass bend to the ground and picking up everything into air. The wind storm then hit the ladies and made them almost loose their footing, making their clothes and hairs blow even more widly. Katrina screamed at this, the wind again and this time even more fast and violently blowing her hat away from her grasp, while making her dress blow around uncontrollably, tugging hard on to her coat and making it's collars flap against her face even harder, and her hair flying all around. Sandy screamed at this as well as the wind sent her skirt flying upwards and making her loose her footing as well. She also couldn't see anything as the wind blew right into her eyes and made the collars of her blouse flap and sting against her face harder and in a blur and so did the blazer's collars while also it's buttons felt to start rip open any moment. Sandy started pushing her skirt down with her other hand while holding on to her hat with the other, which immetiadetly blew off her head and the wind kept tugging hard on it, making it hard for Sandy to keep a grip on it while she also had to struggle with her skirt and footing.

Katrina immetiadetly went running after her runaway hat again, although it seemed hopeless as the hat flew away even faster and it was even harder to run in this storm. At the same time Sandy lost her grip on to her hat as well and the wind took it for a flight again as well. "No! Not now!", Sandy screamed helplessly after her huge flying hat. Sandy went running after her hat as well, but the wind tugged hard on to her skirt like it was a sail and sent it flying over Sandy's head while she was running, sending her for a short flight until blowing her down on the ground. Sandy tried helplessly push the hems of her skirt down and get it, but it was very hard as the wind kept blewing hard and violently while blowing her long hair high in the air. Katrina, who was still running after her hat, heard Sandy screaming help among the loudly roaring and howling wind and right away started running back to Sandy against the powerful wind, letting her and Sandy's hats fly far away who knows where as the wind kept playing with them.

Katrina managed to reach Sandy despite the wind slowing her down as it was blowing and tugging hard on to her dress, coat and hair. "Are you alright?", she asked and started helping Sandy get back up and push her skirt under control. "I think I am...", Sandy responded, but it was hard to hear each other through the roaring wind and their loudly snapping clothes, to top of that the collars of Sandy's blouse keeping flapping against her face and even blocking her mouth completly from time to time. The ladies eventually got back up standing, but were only greeted with the wind picking up strenght even more. Sandy and Katrina tried their best to brace against the wind, only to have the wind blow their arms behind them as it first tugged to hard on to Katrina's trench coat that it slipped and blew off her before she could do anything but scream as she was pushed by the wind and have her hair blow in her face while her dress billowed around like crazy. Also the wind blew at Sandy's blazer hard and violently ripped the buttons off it, opening it wide open and flap wildly in the wind, now getting to blow and flutter the blouse underneath even more.

Eventually the wind also completly blew off Sandy's blazer off her. Sandy didn't have time to mind on this as they both realized that they should go find shelter somewhere. She grabbed on to Katrina's hand as they started walking slowly against the wind. Katrina kept struggling with her upwards blowing dress while pushing against the wind with Sandy, who had managed to push her dress blow behind her instead upwards and tried to cover her eyes from the wind to see anything, while the wind kept also billowing her hair and blouse, slowly starting to rip it's buttons open as well. The ladies managed to reach a railing to get support on and Sandy grabbed on it. But then Katrina lost her footing and she found herself being in the air. Luckily she was still holding on to Sandy's hand so the wind couldn't take her flying. Sandy kept holding tight on the railing and on to Katrina, who was helplessly floating in the air like a piece of clothing about to blow off Sandy's grasp.

But the wind just kept blowing and blowing, making Sandy loose her footing and the grip on the railing, and so she and Katrina found themselves flying in the air like their hats they had lost to the wind. Both ladies screamed at this and tried to grasp on anything to stop their flying, but it was useless as they were flying high in the air. The wind tugged on to their hems like sail, sending them fly over their heads and make them fly even faster in the wind. They couldn't do anything but just fly in the air and try to not have the rest of their clothes get ripped off them. From the distance Sandy and Katrina looked like two big tulips flying in the air.

The ladies kept flying in the wind some time until they spotted a big strong tree infront of them and them flying towards it. "We must grab onto the branches of that tree!", Sandy yelled through the wind and Katrina agreed. As they flew above the tree, Sandy and Katrina both grabbed on to a branch and held tight, the rest of their bodies still in the air but their skirts down blowing downwards so they could see better, alrhough their long hairs were still blowing all around and in their faces. Eventually both Sandy and Katrina managed to pull each other deeper among the branches of the tree and to saftety from the storm.

Some minutes passed until the wind started to die down. The ladies were sitting in the tree and were combing their windblown long hairs with their nails and looking at their clothes that the wind had ripped badly. But despite all this both Sandy and Katrina just laughed at all this. "Wow, that was just so extreme!", Sandy laughed happily and flicked her hair. "You said it! Shall we do that again?", Katrina laughed as well and joked, to which they both bursted in laugh. Despite they loosing clothes to the wind and being in danger, they both were very happy and will surely always remember this experience. Now both Sandy and Katrina are looking for more wind storms to face and plan what billowing clothes to wear.

Blown Away, Part 1. A windy illustrated story I made back in 2016.

A huge and possibly very devastating windstorm was forecasted to strike on that day. By the afternoon the wind had picked up strenght a whole lot and most people in the village were heading inside for shelter. Sandy was right at that time visiting few shops, while waiting for the storm to strike. She was just visiting a hat store at that time and as soon as the storm struck, she hurried outside being very excited and happy. The store owners were puzzled at her hurrying outside into such "terrible" weather instead of staying inside, especially with that big, very wide brimmed hat she just bought from them. The wind will most definetly grab on to that hat very easily and it's hard to keep on! Sandy of course didn't care if the people didn't understand her huge affection to the wind and loving to struggle with it.

Alongside her new big violet hat with a cute pink bow tie on it's crown Sandy was wearing a violet blazer and underneath it a light yellow silk blouse with very long collars, and a long and wide silk skirt. Her knee-lenght blonde hair she was keeping open as always. To her this outfit was almost perfect for windy weather like this, only things missing were a big cloak and a scarf, but she was unable to get suitable ones today so they may wait for the next storm then.

Sandy opened the shop door that got slammed wide open by the wind, and walked out into the storm, while the store owners told her to be careful and closed the shop as they headed to shelter as well.

Sandy walked out and was immetiadetly greeted by strong winds blowing through her. She just laughed happily about this, her long hair starting to whip around and the long collars of her blouse flapping around and the skirt starting to billow wildly. Of course the wind also noticed her new big hat right away and grabbed hard on it, forcing Sandy to grab on and hold on to it. But Sandy didn't have tight enough grib on her hat as the next big gust of wind blew it off her head easily as the gust caught her off guard. Sandy gasped at this and ran after her hat, the wind blowing hard at her back. Before the hat would have flown far away, Sandy managed to catch the hat from it's flight and giggled happily. "Whew, made it!", she laughed and put her hat back on, holding tight from it's wide brims to which the wind tugged on hard.

The wind kept blowing stronger and stronger at Sandy's back as she walked to the fields to enjoy the storm. The wind started tugging on to her skirt even harder and started blowing it upwards, forcing Sandy to push it's hems down with her right hand while holding on to her hat with her left hand. The wind kept blowing her hair all around and in her face and flapping the collars of the blouse at her face as well, so seeing around started getting harder and harder. She of course didn't mind this and couldn't do anything anyway since her hands were full with keeping her hat and skirt under control. She did eventually turn herself against the wind to brush her hair off her face and look around the wind storm raging around her. This all was so exciting and fun and she just stood there against the wind, feeling the wind pushing at her and billowing her hair and clothes uncontrollably. The storm was about to get even stronger, as if it wasn't already extremely strong.

While Sandy was enjoying the wind, not far away from her another lady was having trouble with the powerful gales. This lady was Katrina, who was also there enjoying the wind as it got very strong. Katrina's black knee-lenght hair was flying all around and the wind was tugging hard on to her big tan women's fedora, long tan trench coat and red silk dress. She was having trouble with holding on to her hat and keeping the hems of her dress down as the mighty gales blew against her, flapping the collars of the coat at her face and blocking her vision.

Right at that moment there was a very loud roar as the wind got even stronger and blew a huge gust through the area and at the ladies. The wind blew violently at Katrina, ripping her large trench coat open and making it billow wide open. Katrina screamed as the gust hits her, blocking her vision and making her almost loose her balance. She managed to keep her dress under control but her hat slips out of her other hand and the wind takes it for a flight. Katrina looks at her hat flying away from her, while the wind blows her hair all around and tugs hard on to her coat, making it billow and snap loudly alongside with her dress. She could only just gasp at this and go running after her runaway hat.

The gust kept blowing through the whole area, now striking hard at Sandy as well. This time Sandy manages to brace herself against the gust of wind, lowering her head and the hat against the wind and held tight on it's brims. She felt how the huge gust made her skirt billow and snap even more wildly and made her hair fly like crazy. While she managed to keep a grip on her hat and her skirt blowing behind her, not upwards, the wind ripped off the bow tie from the hat. The wind managed to take a hold on the brims of the hat from below and made Sandy rise her face alongside with the hat to face the wind. But Sandy still managed to keep a grip on her hat, despite the wind tugging very hard on to it's brims. She just closed her eyes and laughed happily, the long collars of the blouse flapping, ruffling and smothering at her face like crazy while her long hair blew widly in a straight line.

But then Sandy heard a familiar yelling in the roaring wind, screaming "My hat! Get back here!". Sandy opened her eyes and looked towards the wind. Despite the flapping collars of her blouse and her hair kept smothering at her eyes from time to time, she saw a big tan fedora flying in the wind right towards her. Sandy reached at the flying hat as it blew towards her, catching it from it's mid-flight. A bit further away Katrina saw this happen and that indeed that was her friend Sandy who just caught her runaway hat. Katrina smiled at this and waved to Sandy as she walked towards her, wind blowing hard on her back.

Sandy laughed and waved back to Katrina as they walked towards each other. "Hello Katrina! I assume this is your's?", Sandy giggled as she handed Katrina's hat back to her, holding tight on to her own hat's brim with her other hand. "It is! Thank you, Sandy!", Katrina giggled as well as she grabbed her hat and put it back on, holding tight on it, her long hair blowing straight and reaching and gently whipping at Sandy's body from time to time.

"It sure is so wonderfully windy today, isn't it?", Sandy laughed, holding tight on to her hat with both hands, her hair blowing all around behind her and her clothes billowind and snapping wildly. "It sure is, but I think it's maybe getting a bit too windy. It's getting hard to even move or see in this storm!", Katrina laughed back, the wind blowing hard at her back, billowing her coat all around and make it's collars flap hard against her neck and cheeks. "Maybe, but it's making all this even more exciting!", Sandy giggled, fixing her grip around her hat that the wind kept tugging on hard. "Heh, you are such an extreme maiden of the wind.", Katrina responded, they both then laughing.
