Chapter 8: Stupid Dwayne

By: WoopWoop87

A/N: Sorry to all you Dwayne fans, but I hate Dwayne mainly because he looks exactly I'm not even kidding exactly like my cousin, he's got the height, the voice, the stupidity (I think), the smile, and the exact look of my cousin and that drives me crazy!

            Since some of the ducks were no longer playing, parts of the roster had to be filled.  Mr. Tibbles, their endorser did some recruiting for the team this time.  They were Ken Wu the figure skater, Julie "the cat" Gaffney an outstanding goalie, Dean Portman a rather rough enforcer, Luis Mendoza a handsome speed skater who couldn't stop, and Dwayne Robertson a cocky puck handler who wasn't very bright.

            It was hard for the ducks to except these new players but with a little bit of time they became to play like a team.  However, Guy knew that Dwayne liked Connie and that made him so mad.  He would interrupt them and start talking to Guy and Connie about cow tipping or pigs or something.  Connie knew of Guy's jealousy and tried to make sure that he knew that she didn't want Dwayne.

            As the two of them walked home to the dorms one night Connie decided to confront Guy about Dwayne.  "So what do you think about the new team members?"  She asked.

            "They're okay," Guy shrugged.

            "What about that Dwayne, he's kind of annoying."

            "That's because he's obsessed with you," Guy said rather bitterly.

            "Don't worry sweetie, I only have eyes for you," she said giving him a big kiss on the cheek. 

Guy couldn't help but smile, "so if I ever go on vacation without you, you won't go hooking up with him?"  He joked.

"Oh well that's another story, did you see that feather in his cowboy hat?  It is to die for," she said leaning her head against his shoulder.

"Oh so I need a cowboy hat for you to love me."

"Definitely," she said as they reached the dorms they were staying at during the Good Will games.

"I'll see you later," he said wrapping his arms around her waist and kissing her softly on the lips.

The team hated to be number 2 and they had lost to number 1, which was Iceland.  They hoped with Charlie benched and Russ Tyler now on the ice that they could win now.  The championship game was coming up and they were coming each with one loss.  The game started with Iceland dominating throughout the first two periods.  Near the end of the second period Guy took the ice ready to score.

The Iceland team was targeting everybody Guy in particular since he was the main shooter on the ice at this point.  He tried to dive the pushes against the ice but Iceland was hitting him hard.  He took a dive into the boards and Iceland hockey stick cutting his eyebrow and getting him a little woozy. 

"Get him off the ice," A ref called getting some medical officials onto the ice to help him off the ice.

"Don't worry I'm okay, it's just a little scratch I don't need anything I'll be fine," Guy said as a stream of blood dripped down his face.  He hated doctors and being hurt so he tried to avoid this check up.

"Connie," Coach Bombay said watching guy get helped of the ice, "go in for Guy."

Connie was still watching him limp away still very worried about him.  "Um right coach," she said jumping out of the box.

"Look out Connie," Charlie said, "They're gunning for you now."

"Don't worry Charlie I'll be fine," She said jumping down to the ice.  She skated onto the ice immediately getting checked into the boards.  She was finally in the position to get the puck but the Iceland team was on her tail.  As she worked the puck out of the jam, Dwayne took his rope and jumped out of the box.

"I'm coming Connie," he yelled as he skated across the ice.  Connie rolled her eyes as he roped the skater causing him to fall to the ground.  "You know where I come from we learn to treat ladies with respect."  He said to the player.

"Thanks Dwayne," Connie said, "but I'm no lady, I'm a duck!" She said pushing the player to the ice. 

The second period had ended and they were walking back into the locker room.  Guy was getting a bandage put on his eye.  "So how's it going out there?" He asked the team.

"We're still losing," Jesse said.  "There was a big bash brother brawl, and Dwayne saved your girlfriend."

"What?" Guy said rather aggravated.

"This Iceland player was about to check her and Dwayne roped him."

"Is that even legal?" Guy said thinking of anyway to make Dwayne look stupid.

"I'm thinking no," Jesse replied.  Just then Connie walked into the locker room, "I'm gonna go over there," Jesse said walking away.

"Hey Guy, are you okay?" She asked sitting next to him.

"Yeah, I just got a cut over my eye." He replied simply.

"So I'm assuming Jesse told you about Dwayne's hero attempt."

"Yep."

"Don't worry it wasn't that big of a deal, don't be jealous."  He nodded.  "Now come on Coach Bombay wants to go talk to us about something."  She stood up and he followed her into the room for a little pep talk.

The team wound up winning the game after a shoot off type round.  Guy was happy when he saw Dwayne try to show off and miss.  After the game they flew back to Minnesota where Bombay promised them to go camping.  They sat around the camp fire as Dwayne began to play his guitar.  Goldberg lit his marshmallow on fire and Guy wore his favorite knitted hat as he sat next to Connie.

"I've paid my dues, time after time," Averman began, "I've done my sentence, but committed no crime."

The whole team joined in, "and bad mistakes, I've mad a few, I've had my share of sand kicked in my face but I've come through.  We mean to go on and on and on and on and," they sang as Charlie, Goldberg, Portman, and Fulton slid onto the dirt head jamming.  "We are the champions my friend, and we'll keep on fighting till the end, we are the champions, we are the champions, no time for loser's cuz we are the champions, of the World!"

Jesse and Banks but their arm around each others shoulder as they rocked back and forth with the music, Portman, Fulton, Charlie, and Goldberg continued to jam on the ground, Dwayne and Luis tried to set Averman on fire, and Guy and Connie sat side by side enjoying each others company, they were now officially the champions of the world.
