Chapter 31
Few weeks later...
Judge: In illegal abuse, cheating and working with a criminal, I hereby sentence you to life in prison and you in juvenile. Dismiss.
Bruno and Jack's former Step Father were lead away in chains and the court room dispersed.
Judge: Wait!
Everyone stops.
Judge: There was another person with you, where is she.
Both males bite their lips.
Sheriff: Sir, while the Rusher were here with paper work, they wanted to drop this off explaining here whereabouts.
He handed the Judge the paper and then he read it out load.
Judge: 'Turned into a kijju abomination then exploded in a high powered tackle'.
The judge was quite amazed and confused as he re-read it a few times.
Sheriff: If anything, these men are lucky they were not her.
They both grunted in anger.
Judge: What was the other paper work.
Sheriff: Adoption papers, making the person the new legal guardian of Jack.
Bruno: Wait what-
Step Father: who in their right mind would adopt that brat!
Meanwhile...
Jack: Okay, i can do this!
Jack was pumping himself up for the wresting match that was up next in the room.
Jack: I can do this, i am in my element.
Blow-Torch: You mean you have an element that does not including destroying bots.
Jack gave Blow-Torch a smirk, the steel city Rusher in disguised.
Jack: Besides that.
Blow-Torch chuckled as he walked over.
Blow-Torch: Now remember, don't let this guy get into your head, stay focus and make sure you use that anger not a fuel but as energy.
Jack: Right!
They heard the announcer and Jack headed out. Blow-Torch smiled as he took out a document with his signature, the words 'Adoption; Official Guardian' on it.
The Guardians cheered as Jack made his way out to the ring.
Announcer: In this corner! The survivor and defender of the weak, L-LUCKY LEPRECHAUN JACK!
Jack jumped up as the crowd roared, Blow-Torch applauding from his side of the ring where Jack was stationed.
Juniper: GO GET HIM JACK!
Announcer: And in this corner, the opponent for the evening, BLITZER BERNARD!
A tough looking male came forward, Jack bringing over the announcer.
Jack: Did you just say his nickname is 'Blitz'er.
Announcer:Yes i did.
Jack smirked.
Jack: Oh this is going to be fun.
And with that the bell rung.
Therapist: Shall we continue this next week Warren?
Warren Zimmer nodded, getting up from the couch.
Warren: Yes, thank you.
Therapist: I must admit, lots of these events could have been prevented if you were sent here instead of a prison cell.
Warren sighed, how many things could have been prevented.
Therapist: Oh yes! You have a visitor downstairs in the courtyard.
Warren: A visitor?
Therapist: Yes, he said he's been waiting to see you since you got here a few months ago.
Warren gave his thanks and walked out, seeing other patients walking around. He soon came to the court yard where he was surprised to see who the visitor was. There under the tree on the bench was-
Warren: Toro.
Toro looked up and gave him a small smile.
Toro: Hello Warren.
Warren walked over.
Warren: What are you doing here?
Toro: I want-I wanted to see you.. I haven't seen you since, well...
Warren: That day.
Toro nodded as Warren sat down next to him.
Warren: I still can't believe you did that for me.
Toro: I never gave up on you...
Warren: And I'm really thankful for that...How everyone doing?
Toro: The Guardians lives are doing well, Blow-Torch got the paper signed so now he's Jack's official Guardian. Chief is still working on the teams name and Bolt-
He trailed on that one.
Warren: I take it Bolt is still the same.
Toro: Y-Yeah...been a few improvements here and there, he's up walking but his lungs...Their still bad.
Warren: I see...and fa-I mean RZ.
Toro: He's doing well...he told me to say to you that he's sorry.
Warren quickly turned to Toro
Toro: He's sorry for not being there for you and putting you though all that. He really wanted to protect you and give you a bright future but...well, Drop Kick kinda messed that up.
Warren sighed, placing his hand behind Toro's back.
Warren: I don't blame any of you...to be honest, I was blaming football for causing so much pain of me in the past when I became Wild-Card, but now that i look at it...it wasn't the sport that caused the pain, it was me. Toro, I want to apologies for putting you and the others through my antics as Wild-Card.
Toro smiled at Warren.
Toro: I'm glad to have my friend back.
Warren smiled.
Back with the Guardians...
Announcer: AND THE WINNER BY A LANDSLIDE! LUCKY LEPRECHAUN JACK!
The crowed went wild as Juniper ran up to the stage, Jack pulling her up dipping her as he brought her into a kiss. Blow-Torch was cheering as the others meet with him. When the crowd finally dispersed after an hour, all that was left were the Guardians as Blow-Torch went back to get Jack's stuff.
Juniper: You were amazing out there.
Jack: Got a great girl cheering for me.
Juniper chuckled as she gave Jack a peck.
Ish: You defiantly gave that guy a run for his money.
Jessica: Yeah! You got to teach us some techniques in the future.
Jack: Sure things.
Ash sighed in content.
Ish: You okay Ash?
Ash: Yes I just...I can't believe it's been a few weeks since that battle, I haven't had a nightmare based on Endgame during that time.
Joseph: Well, we did blew her and that kiju women thing up...i don't think even a spirit can come back from that.
Kristie: I agree, there is no way she's going to make a comeback.
The Guardians sat there with content grins.
Troy: Yeah, i have to admit... as interesting as that battle was, i would not want to go through the mental part again.
Tua: I agree, the mental battles were the hardest ones. Chief's wound on his face is still healing from his battle.
Their thoughts soon turned to a particular Charger Rusher.
Ish: Bolt is still healing...
Ash gave Ish a gentle hug.
Ash: At least those things won't hurt him again.
Ish sighed, hugging her back.
Ish: Your right.
Dean: Not to mention you got some payback against those things AND a Crusher singlehandedly.
Arron: That was pretty awesome.
Ish chuckled at that.
Jessica: I'm just glad those three won't bother anyone else ever again.
Marty: Yeah, those three made the three Anticorians look like saints.
Jessica: Let's not go that far Marty.
Jessica giggled nuzzling into Marty.
Layla: So, what's going to happen now. Warren is back to normal and we still have those three Anticorian running around.
Hunter: Simple, we keep our eyes open...until it is time to pass the torch.
Amara: Do you think whoever our apprentices are will be able to do it?
Ricky: That's way in the future, we still have plenty of time to learn ourselves.
Ish: Ricky's right, for now we will focus on the present.
Everyone nodded.
Blow-Torch: *Walks over* You guys ready?
They nodded as they got off of the seats and went with Blow-Torch.
To Be Continued...
