A tornado and a hurricane don't exactly meet as they occur on completely different scales. A hurricane is its own large-scale storm system while a tornado is a small-scale phenomenon that occurs within a larger system. Hurricanes often produce tornadoes. Such tornadoes behave more or less like those produced by other systems.
