Chapter 3: Team Meeting Part III: Training Old Ducks

At his remark as he answered that. "Nice touch in taking out the trash, though I think you over did it by throwing said trash into the stands son." he said and Charlie and Adam tried to hold it in at that as the quartet started laughing at that. "Anyone get the memo here, but mess with one duck, they better be ready to take on all of us now. We got each other's backs no matter how old we get, but this was what Bombay really meant."

"Ever see a duck fight no, why, it's the antagonists are too afraid to try it, as they know, mess with one, and they got to take on the entire flock. And Varsity, they just ticked us off at hurting you, again, and in the way Larson and Mcgill did. So stand back or you got all of us coming at you." Connie said to Adam and Banks nodded to the metaphor gently. "Here we go again, guys watch his back, they still got a target on him at the moment."

"I can't believe I wasted two years worrying about what Jack thought and his priorities at the moment, he's happier with you right now anyway." he said and Charlie nodded. "Trust me, with the fact that you got that scholarship into the school for him and us with him. Then it's academics are worth more then athletics, we prove to these guys. That you don't have to have money to be just as good as the rich kids at the moment."

"We can do it, Uncle Peter, but rule one now, the way we are, though low middle class in some areas, we're just as good as they are, but that doesn't mean acting like hot shots. Bombay told me he was just like me, on the fast track track and until thing turned his life around, it was by becoming our coach, guys, that information changed things. For me and for you, but the point is, these last four months now, we had to find our own way."

"And we did now, by realizing that though in a school, dressed in new jerseys, and we have a new coach, the one thing that didn't change was us, we're still us. So long as we had each other, we'd be okay, Jesse and the quintet, they have to learn that too. But sure, new school, new coach, new Jerseys, but the one thing that didn't change. Now, is that they have us original ducks at their side." he said and the sextet nodded to him.

"There, that's the point of a fresh start now, you spent four years together and as a result now, things change, but what didn't was you had each other now. I may be your new coach, but that doesn't mean not falling back on your original training. And combining it with what Gordon taught you at the time." Orion told him and he nodded as he looked at his new coach with a smile ad he answered him then gently at that.

"Yes well coach, you were right all along here, darn good thing you're not their coach, we've seen you when lose your temper, we don't want it turned on us. As such, you earned our trust and respect, our bonds are in place now finally here. But with it, Bombay was getting us on a winning streak, but we let our pride take hold, it causes arrogance." he said and Orion smiled as he rubbed his shoulder smiling gently at that.

"Well I wasn't kidding, if I was, they were on stand down till further notice, you were just activating as high school students, they're juniors to seniors in high school. They knew better then to start something like this, but this was a case of hazing. And trying to force you out of school, by cruel practical jokes likes that, till finally now. Came the fact their parents and the board tried to revoke your scholarships, but this wasn't fair case."

"They're the ones that vandalized certain equipment, and were destroying school property. You guys know better then to steal or get in trouble with the cops." he said and they nodded. "I heard that, so they're the ones that broke a window, just to get at your locker room, I found a puddle leaking out of your locker room. And it was enough to cause water damage along with it there were pieces of clothing frozen solid at the time."

"And a stolen a liquid nitrogen tank." Buckley asked and Charlie admitted to that one. "They were picking on Kenny, acting like the bullies that steal lunch and so on, till finally I reached my limit and let them have it by spiking my lunch. And this is what caused the rush out of the lunch room, as for the tank, well that was a warning to lay off of us. But your ant farm that's when their hazing crossed a line when they left us to pay the check."

"For an amount in money we didn't have, our parents are working double shifts, we're lower middle class, but we've been getting donations from first Ducksworth. And then help from Hans equipment store, but we promise, that's the end of the practical jokes, Dean, Coach." he said and Buckley nodded as he exchanged a silent conversation with Orion and Orion nodded as he turned to them with a gentle, but firm look on his face.

"We'll let you off with a warning, but we mean it now, no more practical jokes starting now, Captain Conway, they're the type of hotshots. Like the upper classmen that try to rag on you to get you out of their bunk or in this case, school. No need to to sink they're level, you're just as good as they are, remember the point of The Outsiders. No matter rich or poor, you're just as good as they are, but now it's time to show it."

"You can raise the money on your own without attempting to show off, like Linda was trying to change the demeaning warrior name of the school. Everyone in the school, they like the idea of having you as their mascot, but a tribe turned into a flock now. And we prefer it like this, so what's the catch of picking on the newest members of the tribe?" Buckley asked and he crossed his arms as he answered him gently at the question.

"How's that any different than a case of money prejudice, where we have a bunch of over violent rich kids getting editorials in the paper. And for being a disgrace to public society one day and a asset to the society the next right now. But as a flock, we stick up for the youngest members, but you hurt one of us ducks in school. And as a result now, you got the others on your head ready to remove it." he said and they nodded to him smiling.

"Bingo, that's exactly the point, how is what these guys are doing to you any diferent then the book, you're just as good as they are. But tribes have prejudice, just like modern times, and certain books now. But to be a flock now, there is prejudice at all attack hurt onr duck you got others on your head ready to remove it. It's like my ant farm, everyone knows their place, but they work as a team, to have the colony now. "

"Working and running smoothly, you just learned the true meaning to Colson's history lesson when he was teaching you that." he said and they nodded to him smiling. "Well having him as a history teacher is interesting, but we've been passing every class. And since we started school now, Sir, but you're the school's head duck, our latest arrivals. They got to get used to this now, we been there longer." Russ told him and he nodded.

"And we know the rules, but another grudge match to change bird mascots, come on enough already, we get enough bumps and bruises as it is. We don't need these guys ganging up on us at the moment, though they get together with Riley and his friends. Then we got serious problems here." Averman said and he nodded to that. "No joke Averman, we got to get to work, but we got a long three months ahead in training."

"Though on break right now, we spend 1/3 of it in training, and during the winter break holidays and the rest as a single flock now." Charlie told him and Orion nodded to that in agreement then. "I take it you had to do that more then once in training the rookies on the stars, Ted?" Reed asked and he nodded. "Yeah I did, but my peers when just arriving knew when I turned on the assistant coach tone, better cool it with the attitude."

"But I retired from professional hockey, after my daughter was injured in a car accident, and decided to be a teacher. Taking on your cubs, well lets just I can teach them plenty now, in being in the real thing, rather then peewees, or the goodwill games. Which explains why Dean said that, he got that from me after I took it to a different strategy. But these guys are head hunters Eric, as such, we go looking for goose eggs now."

"So ducks, stay clear and secondly enough of the practical jokes starting now, we are better then they are, so no need to sink to their level. They can do that themselves at the moment, but they join forces with the varsity, we got a serious problem. And you guys need time to heal and from the amount of damage you took in this game." he said and the team nodded to the orders as Charlie repeated that remark gently.

"Guys, we're not kidding, we had enough of the pranks and counter pranks, we're better then they are, and they're so slimy, no need to sink to their level now, okay." he said and the thirteen nodded as Orion smiled as he looked at them. "But not letting go son, you kids are my pride, we're a flock, we stick together." he said and the team smiled at his claim to them, feeling the first true bonds between them activate then.
