Setting the Scene


It takes place in a fantastical world known as Muckety Muck, Wisconsin, near a forest by a lake, in 2024. Everyone knows each other in town. Bronzy is proficient in polka dancing. She has a deep connection to the Earth and its resources. She hugs a tree for mutual support. She prays for the animals and they have a tremendous amount of respect for her. If anyone tried to harm her in any way, the animals would surely protect her. Bronzy has a passion for innovation and sustainability. Her drive is to develop new alloys for electric cars that are both efficient and environmentally friendly. She wants to see the world prosper in various stages. She's always thinking several steps ahead. She is a natural leader and a source of inspiration for others in her community.

Bronzy is working on a groundbreaking project. She is thirty-one years old. She has a creative vision for the future. Inventing an electrical car that would never break down is ideal for everyone; it would repair itself when needed.

Baron Bigwig is a Chinese Industrialist who has incredible talents. He will discover planetary alignments of universal technologies. He is forty-three years old. He is a powerful and influential figure in the small town of Huckingville, Indiana, known as the "Hoosier State" in the mid-western region of the United States. It's surrounded by farmland, reflecting Indiana's agricultural roots. It's located near a river. Attending high school basketball games and county fairs was highly important to him.

Square dancing is fun for Baron. He loves to see the women wearing there square dance dresses. It was to his advantage to do the allemande lefts, since he could turn himself around and meet the women, as their skirts flittered around. They look dainty in their maneuvering abilities. "I love these women", Baron would say. He looked on fleek in his attire. He's a refined and polished gentleman who was looked up to by women, who were elegant stylish, sophisticated, and swanky. Their body image should be flawless (perfect figure, physically fit, and doesn't struggle with communication). If they didn't meet the standards (criteria) for being a woman, there was no place for them in his realm of thinking.

Bronzy has high standards when it comes to polka dancing. The name "Polka" was coined because of the dance's rapid shift from one foot to the other. And, Wow! Her shifting was fast and swift. Her face glowed with anticipation for a better tomorrow. A future filled with desire, hope, faith, and, of course, the perfect gentleman. To her, the perfect gentleman would be well-mannered, devoted, committed, and stout. He would love the qualities of her inventiveness. She would be the luckiest woman in the world, inventing something that would be unimaginable. Her optimism shined in this area. she was genuine; she cared about people and their ambitious nature to finish what has been started. Her heart was phenomenal; she believed in achieving the impossible. Would she meet the man of her dreams? Would she come up with something brilliant enough for people to gawk in amazement? She is capable of achieving what no one has believed was possible. When she starts something, she doesn't give up. Her unstoppable energy gives her that driving force.

How would she find someone who would fit in with her expectations? Would this person even exist? In her mind, the ideal man would soon enter her life. The question was, "Would such a man work well with her, or "Would he end up betraying her?" A betrayal would leave her devasted and heartbroken. If this were to happen, her world would be crushed.

On January 1, 2024, Baron Bigwig noticed that the planet Earth and the planet Jupiter would come into alignment with one another. This meant higher tides, due to the combined gravitational pull of the two planets. Jupiter is a gas giant, so it doesn't have a solid surface to interact directly with Earth. Stronger tidal forces could emerge. Marine life and coastal regions could be impacted. "If Jupiter were close enough, it might interfere with Earth's magnetic field, potentially disrupting satellite communications and navigation systems." Jupiter has a powerful magnetic field. This alignment could be an influence on the Earth's atmosphere, possibly leading to unusual weather patterns or climatic shifts.

The psychological and cultural impacts of such a rare celestial event could significantly affect humanity, inspiring either fear or a sense of unity. The alignment could provide unique opportunities for scientific research, leading to new discoveries about planetary interactions and the nature of our solar system.

Baron had a bright idea. He thought that if he could cool down the temperament of the waters, Earth and Jupiter could come to an agreement saying, "Creating danger for Earth and mankind isn't such a good idea." This would restore peace throughout the land, allowing people to reunite by being friendlier toward one another. " War would no longer be a consideration. The question Baron asked himself was, "How would I be able to pull this off? To bring Earth and Jupiter together, rather than using their powerful forces to wipe mankind off from the Earth."

Bronzy experienced a sudden enlightenment, eager to bring her revolutionary idea to life. She pondered the components needed to invent an electric car that would never break down and could repair itself. "What if I use a copper roof for conductivity, nickel wheels for durability, and soft aluminum for comfortable seats? she mused. "And a touch of Titanium (Ti) on the dashboard would add a sleek, futuristic feel."

Bronzy's mind began to roll around, thinking about entering a polka dance competition. She could relax, and by the swift motion of her feet, new ideas could pop into her head.

Meanwhile, Baron heard about Bronzy being enrolled in the polka dance competition. He thought about introducing himself. His expertise in geometry could inspire different angles to go by, putting his professionalism of square dancing in mind. He could do a allemende left with a four ladies chain across, right on over to Bronzy, doing a do-si-do. He would have to think fast, since her quick shift movement of her feet could land him right smack into her arms. He wouldn't want her mad at him right from the get go. He could think of angling left, angling right, all in the form of the perfect square. They could meet right dab in the center.

Baron would say, "Hey, Bronzy, it's so nice to finally meet you. I heard you would like to invent an electric car that would never break down and always repair itself when it did." Bronzy was intrigued by his charm and good looks. "Well, how do you know who I am?", she said. "I overheard a conversation about you entering the polka dance competition." "I am entering the square dance competition. By the way, can I buy you dinner? We can talk about this idea of yours. We can put our heads together and see what we can come up with." Sounds like a great idea, she said, "We can surely do this." "Then, we have a date", he said.

Bronzy observed Baron sweet talking with all the ladies, and was wondering what she was getting herself into. She figured the ladies would be jealous of him talking to her. Why would he ask me on a date, if he had so many prospects out there waiting for him? After all, he just wants to be leading her on just to break her heart. Her disbelief was apparent. She hung her head low. She was seriously thinking about not showing up. She was humiliated to the point of exhaustion. I don't deserve this

Bronzy didn't show up for her date. She was so disheartened about Baron being the way he was, that she decided "What's the point? He was never serious about wanting to work with her anyhow. When Bronzy became a no-show, Baron began to wonder what had happened. He pondered over this for days. I believed things were going well for us. He was excited about the project they would've worked together on. On a whim, he decided to search for her. First, he went down to where the polka dancers were practicing for the competition. Sure enough, she was there. He approached her and asked why she didn't show up for their date. "You mean you have no idea? she blurted out. He was puzzled by her remark. Remaining cool, he gently asked, "What are you talking about?"

Bronzy stood up for herself and abruptly responded, "I came here and saw you intermingling with a bunch of ladies. It's a wonder you even thought of me. Baron was taken aback. He wanted an explanation.

One month had passed before Baron and Bronzy began to talk. It was during this time when Bronzy came up with a spectacular discovery. She stumbled upon a new element, which she named Nitanium. This discovery was purely accidental, yet the implications were absolutely mind blowing.

Baron Bigwig's mind buzzed with an exhilarating and inconceivable idea. He was thinking about a car that could soar above traffic, when needed, to get out of traffic congestion at will. Titanium, with its symbol Ti, and the atomic number 22, was the perfect element for this ambitious project. Known for its strength and lightweight properties, often utilized in aerospace, medical implants, and various alloys, it seemed almost destined for this innovation. Excitedly, Baron decided to share groundbreaking concept with Bronzy.

At first, Bronzy was reluctant to share her discovery with him. Eventually, she gave in. Baron was intrigued. They decided to work together on this. After some research, Baron found that her invention could calm the waters if Jupiter aligned with Earth. He projected that this alignment would bring the world together in a heartbeat. It would either do that or create a lot of devastation. Having a huge wall of water come down upon the Earth would kill a lot of people.

Nitaniium is a rare, natural element. Its unique properties make it highly resistant to corrosion and capable of withstanding extreme temperatures. It would make it valuable for advanced technology or space exploration.

Baron came up with a superb idea. He decided to add Titanium, Nickel, and Uranium to the mix. Uranium would be the perfect ingredient for its self-repairing capabilities. He happened to think, on the spur of the moment, about elephants. "Elephants never forget," he said, "How about adding peanut oil? This way the car would remember not to break down." The chassis would be a unibody made of iron." Getting back to the car's energy level, the thought of adding orange juice to the ion-battery would give it sunshine during the bleary days. His brain first thought of doing this, when he remembered that adding anything citrusy to an ion-battery could be a dreadful mistake. But then, having a huge container of baking soda on hand, could prevent an accident of devastating effects, like an explosion. He got a huge container for storing nothing other than baking soda. Another thought came to his mind. I could add Ferrouranium, also known as ferro-uranium, to make it more robust and durable. It contains about 35-50% Uranium and 1.5-4.0% carbon. This could create a chassis that can withstand various stresses and strains without deforming. Uranium's presence can significantly lower the melting point of iron, which could be useful in the manufacturing process.

Baron began his method of putting one-fourth cup of orange juice with one-half cup of peanut oil, and one-fourth cup of water. In his crazy and dubious mind, he knew better than to add any citrus or water to an ion-battery. He put this mixture aside, out of sight, out of mind. One day he picked up a bottle of this mixture, not remembering what was in it; it wasn't labeled. He put in this mixture by accident, when he heard some fizzing going on. This was a big worry for him. He immediately grabbed the container of baking soda, ready to quench the sizzling, when a happy sound came out of the engine. It purred like a kitten, regaining an extra amount of energy from the orange juice. The peanut oil wouldn't let it break down. This was a disastrous incident which turned out well.

Baron contributed this to Bronzy's invention of Nitanium. He shared what happened with Bronzy. Bronzy was elated with excitement when she heard about this. "What a relief", they both said at once.

Bronzy went polka dancing to enjoy herself. With fast-stepping moves, she began to put his ideas along with some new ideas of her own. She decided to add a sleekness to her design to her Mugmobile. She thought of the metal silver. It's highly reflective. It has a high electrical and thermal conductivity of any element. Baron and Bronzy had the same idea of adding on gold, since it's highly resistant to corrosion and oxidation.

In the rural part of Muckety Muck, Wisconsin, there is a huge barn underneath a dome, built especially for polka dancing, live bands, and karaoke. There wasn't any alcohol served there. Everyone in this rural community helped each other out when needed. It was all like a close-knit family having fun. All around the barn were warm friendly lights, inviting others to join in their celebrations. Bronzy invited Baron to do some square dancing there. Baron was upbeat about her invitation.

Baron and Bronzy, through their polka and square dancing, had developed new ideas in their heads. They had a blast putting their skills to work.

There was a stranger who showed up at the barn. He was a suspicious looking kind of man. He was known as a spy from a foreign country. Little did they know that their lives were about to change. The stranger's name was Mikail Dolstoyefsky.

Bronzy was infuriated when she couldn't locate the plans for the Mugmobile that her and Baron worked on together. She was perplexed. She tried to backtrack to where she had been. Then it happened. She began to blame Baron for the theft of their project. Baron swore up and down that he didn't do it, but she was totally convinced that he had. Baron suddenly spoke up and said, "You don't think the stranger in town may have taken it." Things went a rhy after that. Bronzy sat in the car waiting for some encouragement. Instead, she got some backlash. The car told her she was incapable of completing her invention. The car was against her; It talked her down.

Bronzy, troubled by what the Mugmobile was doing, decided to go along with Baron's suspicion of Mikail Dolstoyefsky. After doing research, she found out that this person was a spy. She was baffled and stunned by this news. She approached Baron and apologized to him about her accusations toward him. They needed to come up with a plan of action.

An amazing thing happened! The car had a plan of its own. It decided to photograph this man stealing the plans. Bronzy and Baron relaxed in the Mugmobile one fine day. Sure enough, it was none other than Mikail Dolstoyefsky They had the proof they needed,, but how would they get the plans back. Was this spy a Russian? His name certainly indicated that.

Now that the Mugmobile was helping Baron and Bronzy, it told them that their idea of putting the right amount of orange juice and water to the ion-battery gave it the energy it needed to pull it out of its depression. It was able to revive itself to a brighter way of thinking. Who would have ever thought of that? The Mugmobile was happy and purred like a kitten to show how fond it was of them. Baron and Bronzy ended up not being mad at each other.

The plan was underway for determining what country Mikail Dolstoyefsky was from. He had an accent that was hard to determine. Perhaps it had an Hinduism accent. Perhaps he could have been one of our own kind.

Baron Bigwig discoverd a meteor shower display coming from the planet Neptune, which will align itself with the planet Earth. This will become interesting when the planet Saturn interrupts this alignment. If Earth passes through the debris, left by comets or asteroids, the meteor shower could be triggered or enhanced.

Causing it to pass closer to the Earth in a spectacular meteor shower, Neptune and Saturn could influence the trajectory of a comet. Streaks of light illuminated the sky, creating a breathtaking and otherworldly scene. This inspired awe and wonder for Baron. He was entranced.by the beauty of it all. He was thinking of the perfect proposal and wedding for Bronzy. He was always excited to see her.

Meanwhile, Baron decided to do research on what kind of man Dolstoyefsky was. He discovered that he worked hard on coming up with different accents so he wouldn't be recognized. It ended up that he was part Lebanese and part Czechoslovakian. It was a broken accent. This made it difficult to figure out what Mikail was made of.

Mikail tried everything he could to disrupt the lives of Bronzy Nickels and Baron Bigwig. He was in jail for what he did to Bronzy and Baron, but he was soon out on bail. When Bronzy and Baron were aware of this, they became concerned about their safety. Would he attempt to steal the plans for the electric car again? Would they be followed? The uncertainty of this made them feel bombarded with threats against their livelihood.

Baron wondered what Mikail's next step was to be. He didn't want anything to complicate his life. He didn't want Bronzy to mistrust him again. He wanted to get Bronzy to put her head together with him to figure all this out. What it will be, he didn't know.

Baron planned a meeting with Bronzy to put a hiccup into their plans by putting glucosamine into the engine to take away any imperfections or pains the car may be feeling. "This sounds crazy", Baron said, "but it might work for the car.
