I am back. You all thought you got rid of me, but I'm here to tell you no. Muahahaha. I'm sure none of you missed me anyways, but I'm glad to be back, and I missed you all! -
Anyways, this fic is a crossover on this one book I read, Apaches. I'm not sure if any of you read it, but just in case, it's pretty much a book about 6 retired cops that band together and try to bring down crime, similar to the LXG style. They're from 1985, so a time machine will be involved.
So, this is a trailer, and you can expect a fic coming soon. I'll try to make it quick, but school can consume my life, not just homework. So, sorry in advance!
Now, I think I've prattled on long enough. For both the fic and this trailer, no flaming, please! Both of these group do not belong to me; LXG was a comic made into a movie by more capable people, and Apaches was a book created by Lorenzo Carcaterra
V-V
Narrator: New York City. Screen pans on all sites of a 1985 New York, like Statue of Liberty, the city itself, etc. Home to the innocent shot of kids playing and scumshows sinister-looking man spying on them.
Not much different a century ago. Goes back in time, to New York City in 1899
Two certain groups are tired of crime screen in split in half, both shot at night. On 1899 NYC, seven shadows are shown on ground, one large and gorilla in form, the other surrounded by bats. 1985 NYC has six shadows, all plain human, and they'll do anything they can to bring justice to the city, even if they are the bizarre and crippled.
Six people (five men, one woman) are standing before a weird-looking machine, with two people next to it. A petite, blonde woman is explaining it.
Blonde: Time is a very dangerous thing, but most seem to cherish the fact of going back to do undo certain mistakes, or forward to see the possibilities.
As she talks, shows the League are standing around 1985 NYC, looking dazed and confused.
Nobody seems to realize that events occur because of a choice.
Shows one of the men from the Apaches looking nervous, faced with a problem
Like, what if we didn't go to war in Vietnam? Or, what if a certain person won, when they were supposed to lose?
Shows a woman standing in the shadows. It's 1985, and she is addressing a large crowd of criminals, from the sly, high-end people, to the lowly slums
Woman: My dears, we have always been looked down on as sinners. We are lower than a slave from a century ago. Remember, though, a change in history is all that's needed.
A man is seen in the shadows as well, talking after her
Man: A certain event was to occur. But, if we disrupt it so that the outcome is altered, then the criminal future can rise above the so-called 'innocent'.
