'Good Morning Middleburg, today something weird has happened it appears that a thick sheet of snow has covered, the town and people are already taking advantage of this summer snow day,
"That's right chad, no one knows why, but the temperature hasn't really changed, but that doesn't mean kids are enjoying this little snowfall.." The TV said as Akira watched.
"Okay this is getting strange, first that beast, then Excalibur, now snow." He then pulled out his MUHU and contacted Cassandra after a few rings she picks up, looking like a mess.
"What do you want Zero?" She asked obviously still tired.
"Good morning to you too." He said
"It's morning?" She asked looking at her clock.
"Yeah, but that's not what's important, it's snowing outside, I know it sounds strange, but…
"Yeah, I'll check it out." She said
"But I didn't even explain why." He said
"You said it was snowing, so I figured that something weird must have happened again."
'Damn, she is a genius.' Akira thought. "Look, I'll be coming over to pick up Excalibur, I think something weird might be happening." He said
"Alright, just make you don't leave a mess with the snow," She said as she hangs up. Akira puts away the MUHU and went to the kitchen as he sat down, he was met with a plate of pancakes.
"Thanks, Mom." Akira said as she started eating.
"Your welcome, but I'm much too old to be your mother." Akira looked up and saw his grandmother, Bonnie Zero.
"Oh right, Mom and Dad, went out for a while." He said.
"Well good to see you too." Bonnie said, Akira then looked at his grandmother.
"Sorry, it's good to see you again, how's retirement, treating you?" He asked
"It keeps us busy, I love traveling, but maybe working at Hero Works would be a nice change." She said
"Where's Lara and granddad?" He asked.
"He's already at work and your sister had an early start, just like your mother, so are you going to enjoy this snowy day?" She asked
"Maybe later, I need to check on something first." He said.
"Alright, try not to catch a cold." She joked as she watches her grandson left back upstairs, as he got dressed in his usual attire and headed out.
-Meanwhile-
Lara was with Tyler sitting in a cafe, snacking on a bagel, and watched as the snow dropped outside.
"It's weird, right?" Lara looked over and saw her boyfriend walk over.
"Well with what's been going on, this is more relaxing than anything else." She said
"You doing okay?" He asked looking at her arm.
"Yeah, I'm fine." She said, "Just a few weeks and I'm fine."
"Still, I'm sorry that I couldn't protect you." He said
"It's cool, but…"
"Akira?" He asked
"I never seen him like that." She said, "I know that he can be overprotective an all but what happened that day…" She soon felt Tyler's hand on hers. "Look a lot has happened, first our date got ruined then you got hurt and now a snow day! It's a lot to take in, but you and to a lesser extent Akira aren't alone and as your "medic" it's my job to support you" He said with a smile.
"Thanks Ty." She said the soon got closer coming in for a kiss, but soon heard screaming the two looked outside and were shocked.
-With Akira-
The boy was walking out of Cassandra's neighborhood with Bj and Excalibur, well the handle at least, for the best it might be concerning for a fourteen-year-old to have a weapon.
"Your sword just keeps getting weirder and weirder." Bj commented
"Thanks, by the way, you guys find out anything more about it?" He asked
"Well It very picky, Cassandra and I had some trouble trying to hold it, well I did anyway, Cassandra could drag it, but it doesn't seem to want to move when I'm holding it, so I guess it's going by worthy rules." He said
"Worthy rules?" Akira asked
"You "Whosoever holds this object, if he is worthy, shall possess the power." blah blah blah." Bj said
"Yeah, but this isn't a hammer, it's sword." Akira stated
"Look all i'm saying is only you can use it." He said
"Okay, but how do I do that, the last time I kinda blacked out." Akira stated.
"Well, maybe Merlin will show up and teach you." BJ jokes
"Oh haha, very funny." He said. Before Bj could retort they heard distant screaming."
"Time to go to work." Akira said as the two followed the sound and found themselves in an empty lot.
"I was sure it was coming from here." Akira said.
"Maybe we missed it." Bj suggested his eyes then when wide as started to tap on his leader's shoulder
"Maybe, but don't let your guard down, weird things have been happening… would you stop tapping… my…" Akira then looked back and saw a snowman.
"What wasn't here before." Akira said he then pulled out his sword handle and poked it.
"Okay, let's just back away slowly." BJ said as he, just then they felt a pair of hands on their shoulders the looked back and saw another snowman looking at them.
"Oh."
"Crap." Bj finished the Snowman then opens it's jaw and roars, the two screamed as they ran away but soon found themselves surrounded.
"Boy if you're ever going to pull out that sword now would be the time." BJ suggested. Akira then reached for the handle and pulled it out, but nothing came with it, no light or a sword.
"Well, I can still wack these guys around with this." He said waving the handle
"Not helping, dude." BJ said
"Well let's just punch them!" BJ yelled as he got ready to punch but as he did one of the snowmen turned their torso into ice., hurting BJ's hand.
"Ah dammit!" BJ yelled. "Well this is where we die." he added.
"Nice mentality dude." Akira said, suddenly something drops onto his head. He looks down and sees his rusty gauntlet. "What the…" He then looked up and saw a bat fly away.
"Rose?" He then picks up the iron glove and puts it on. "Well, at least I can knock them back." Akira soon throws a punch at the creature shattering its ice body. "Nice didn't think I was that strong." He said the snowmen then jumped up and they all turned into giant blocks of ice. As they started to fall down Akira winded up his arm and sent it towards the blocks of ice shattering each one with his one hand. "Oh yeah, take that Frosty!" Akira quipped as he kicked a chunk only to stub to toe.
"Ow ow ow!" He yelled as hopped around. Just then his MUHU started to ring. He answers and sees Tyler.
"Tyler what's going on?" He asked
"You guys need to get to the cafe downtown now!" Tyler said.
"What's going on?!" Akira asked
"Just get here!" He then hangs up and looks to BJ.
"You okay to go?" He asked
"Yeah, I'm fine let's go." BJ said as the two hurried downtown.
-Elsewhere-
Snowball and Rose were watching Akira's fight, the boy looked at his sister and sighed.
"You know you cheated." He said
"So what were demons, we don't play fair." Rose said.
"Fair enough, your boyfriend seems to be a tough cookie." He said
"What, I-I didn't say he was my boyfriend." Rose said with a blush.
"You know you can't lie to Rosy." He said
"Whatever snowball, but you know I'll win." Rose said.
"We'll see about that." He said as he disappeared into the snow while Rose summoned a horde of bats that took her away towards downtown.
Zoryan El Muerto: Looks like the worse he'll get is a swollen toe in this trial and I can understand if your not liking the direction this story is going but trust me I will try to make it as good as the original
HEROS Central: Let's hope I can do both.
