Our Little Spot
TIAA Bank Field...
Spot: *Anger* GET BACK HERE AND FIGHT ME!
Spot ran through the hallways of the stadium after Zich, He had spotted the Anticorian trying to get the Megacore and this had lead to a chase around the stadium. Zich had sent wave after wave of blast at the Jaguar. Spot smirked.
Spot thoughts: Perfect, the Megacore should be in the lower area now.
Zich angerly groaned which turned into a yell, as he smacked Spot into a closet, the door knob breaking off and the cleaning chemicals falling and spilling to the ground.
Zich: Let's see you get out of that!
Zich ran off. Spot got up quickly and tried to open the door.
Spot: HEY! Let me out you screw head! Come a fight me like a man-
Spot let out some coughs. He turned at froze to see the chemicals that had spilled fumigating the room. Spot covered his mouth as he continued to bang on the door frantically.
Spot: LET ME OUT! LET ME-*Coughs*
Spot head began to swim. He realized if he didn't get out soon, he would die right here. He frantically searched his helmet and pressed a button on it, a small flash going on a off.
Bit later...
The portal opened and the six Guardians, armored up lept out.
Ish Guardian: The signal is this way. Hopefully we can find out what's going on.
Ash Guardian: Right, let's get to-
They heard feet landing behind them and the turned, the portal closed with now three Rusherz (Lasso, Claw, and Grizzly) in fear and concern on their faces.
Ricky Guardian: What are you three doing here?
Lasso: We're worried about Spot, so we all wanted to come with y'all.
Grizzly: Three of us volunteered to come here.
Claw: Can we please just find Spot now?
The Guardians looked at eachother and nodded, signaling the Rusherz to follow them. They ran through the hallways till they reached a hallway where a closet was.
Tua Guardian: Strange, it said he's right here.
Marty Guardian: You think the signal is on the fritz?
Ish Guardian: No...this is the spot.
As they figured out what was going on, Claw ear's twitched and he turned to hear the sound of weak and faint banging coming from the closet door.
Claw: You guys here that?
They turned and Grizzly caught something, sniffing the air and became worried.
Grizzly: Do you smell that?
Everyone froze at that and realize that the air smelt like chemicals.
Lasso: WE NEED TA GET HIM OUT OF THERE!
Tua Guardian: On it!
Tua super sized and went to the closet door, ripping it off. Everyone covered their noses as the smell increased for a bit. They turned back to see Spot fall over gasping.
Claw: Oh my gosh Spot!
Claw ran over to Spot, getting him away from the smell. As the Guardians handled the smell and the chemical, Claw laid Spot near the wall along with Grizzly and Lasso. Spot eyes were closed as he took deep breathes. Ricky and Ish sent ice and fire blast in to wash away the smell, before they joined they Rusherz.
Troy Guardian: Is he okay?
Grizzly placed a hand on Spot's chest, wincing at how hard his lungs were working.
Grizzly: I think it's best if we took him home and get him proper treatment there.
Claw: .OKAY?
Claw was visually shaking, Lasso giving a comforting smile.
Lasso: Of course he will Claw, you know our little Spot is tough.
Claw turned to the Cowboy, slowly nodding.
Ish Guardian: I'll open the portal and we can get some help.
Lasso: Thank you Ish.
A portal was made, Claw slowly picking up Spot and they all jumped in.
HOK, Rusherz Quarters, one hour later...
Spot was peacefully sleeping, a oxygen mask was strapped on him. He was laying in his bed holding a stuff Jaguar, Freefall sighing in relief as he left and headed into the living room where the Guardians and the Rusherz were waiting.
Beast: And?
Freefall: He's going to be fine. He just need some rest.
All sighed in relief, Claw audibly saying 'Thank goodness'.
Ash: That's good. He's going to be okay.
Swoop: Just...we almost lost him there.
Marty: Come on, he's going to be fine now and-
Claw: *Bit irritated* WELL EXCUSE ME IF WE ARE MORE AFRAID OF LOSING HIM! YOU NEVER RAISED HIM!
Claw blinked as he looked at the shocked Guardians, blushing and sitting back down.
Claw: I-I'm sorry, t-that was uncalled for.
Marty: N-No, it's okay..I-we just, we almost forgot you guys had raised him as a kid.
The Rusherz slowly nodded.
Liberty: No...not a kid.
Troy: Was he younger?
The Rusherz looked at eachother, nodding.
Tua: How old was he when you rais-
Pick-Ax: Few hours old.
The Guardians eyes widen in shock.
Ish: You mean...he was just born, then few hours later he's-
The Guardians sat down in shock as they tried to wrap around the information they were given when-
Claw: Many, many years ago *The Guardians turned to him* on Cordalion. It was night time and we were preparing to head to bed-
Many years ago, Cordalion, night time...
Claw was checking over the core, making sure it was in one piece. His back was turned when heard knocking on the door and the fast pace of feet fading away.
Claw: Hm...hello?
Claw went to the door and opened it, his eyes scanned the scene, but no one was there...except a basket, something being covered by a blanket.
Claw: Did, *grabs the basket/closes the door and walks away* Did someone order something?
A load afar gunshot bang rang through, startling Claw. He went to check what it was, when he heard crying, a baby crying. It was a cry/mew combination that caught Claw's full attention to lift the bundle and take a peak...his heart froze as he silently gasped. The thirty Rusherz came running over to Claw.
Liberty: Are you okay Claw?
Claw: I-yes..
Scavenger: We heard a bang form outside, it might have been far away but we wanted to check on you.
Claw: I assure you I'm fine-
Blow-Torch: Well, that's good but we got a bot to smash now-
Claw: Guys!
The stopped when they realize the crying/mewing coming from Claw's arms.
Claw: I-I think we have something more important than the Blitzbot right now.
Claw, slowly lifted the top of the blanket off...and the Rusherz shared a hushed gasp. Wrapped in the blanket was was a small Rusher feline, yellow with black spots...a jaguar Rusher, a baby. The baby jaguar had tears in it's eyes as it cried, it tiny arms close to him. The Rusherz were left speechless.
Freedom:...Oh my gosh.
Claw gentle rocked it a bit, biting his lip.
Claw: Any idea?
Freefall quickly went over.
Freefall: Mind if I take a look.
Claw was hesitant, but nodded and he handed the infant to Freefall. He sat down on a large rock and examined, Claw following.
Toro: How are they?
Freefall: It's a male, and he seems to be a few hours old.
Pillage: WHAT! Who would leave a few hour old baby at a doorstep.
Claw: I-I think his parents didn't have a choice.
They looked confused..before they put all the events together leading to the bang sound they heard. They fell into sorrow at the now realization of the situation.
Lasso: *Takes off his hat (along with Freedom), to his chest* Poor youngin an orphan without even seeing his folks.
The infant gave a squeaky wail as it helped return the others back to the present situation.
Cyclops: I think we should grieve later, right now this child needs help. Anything we can do Freefall?
Freefall: He must be starving, looks like he's hasn't had any substance due to the situation.
Grizzly snapped his fingers and run off. He returned later with a hand made bottle full of warm milk.
Grizzly: Think this might work, it's not from mom but it's a good substitute.
Freefall: *A small smile* This is perfect.
Freefall gently tilted the bottle towards the Jaguar baby. He stopped and sniffed it before latching on it and drinking.
Liberty: He's eating...*sighs in relief* thank goodness he's eating.
Stampede: He was hungry. Glad he's got something now.
The baby finish the bottle, letting out a squeaky mew/burp.
Freefall: *smile* There we go.
Freefall handed the Jaguar baby back to Claw and got up.
Bolt: Well, that's one problem solved. Now, what to do.
Rampage: Guys! *Walks forward* I found this in the basket, it's a note.
Rampage handed the note to Liberty, who opened it up.
Liberty: *Read letter* 'To the Rusherz of the core, please take good care of our son, as we can no longer care for him...By the time you read this, Sudden Death would have killed us, but we manage to save our son. We want you to know he is a Guardian of a particular piece, the Jaguars. Thank you so much and please, take good care of our little Spot.'...
Silence.
Swoop: Well, that proves the truth of our theory...Though i prayed it wasn't.
K-9: What do we do?
Fang: Can-Can we really take of of a infant on top of the Core?
Talon: Well, we can't just put him in a orphanage, that would be the first place Sudden Death would look and he's most certainly does not spare anyone no matter what age.
As the Rusherz talked over what to do, Claw was staring at Spot in his arms.
Claw: Spot...that's a good name.
Spot still had tears pricked in his eyes as he whimper. Claw gently smiled as he rocked the infant slowly.
Freefall: Well what can we do?
Liberty: I-I don-
The were all silence when they heard a small melody being hum. They slowly turned to see Claw, rocking the infant with a smile on his face, humming to it. The infant tears faded as he calmed down. He finished and looked slowly up to see the others gathered around.
Claw: I-I want him to stay, i think we can do it.
The Rusherz gave him warm smiled as Spot stirred, opening his eyes a bit, reveling teal eyes.
Claw: *To Spot* Hello there little guy, you gave use quite the scare back there. Don't worry though, your safe with us.
Liberty: *Sits next to them; To Spot* That's right, we'll be taking care of you. We'll make sure you won't be lonely again.
Beast: *To Spot* Right...we'll be your big brothers now.
The Rusherz all gently smile at the infant, their new little brother of the team.
Present...
?: Guys...
Everyone turned to see Spot at the entry way. The Rusherz had tears pricked in their eyes as did the Guardians.
Spot: Oh no...sorry for the scare I-
Liberty: No, no...it's just...reminiscing. How are you feeling.
Spot slowly went over and sat on the couch.
Spot: Lungs are not working into over drive anymore, but my head is still swimming a bit.
Alto: Can you tell us what happened?
Spot: Zich happened, didn't get the Megacore but he rammed me into the closet and split the cleaning chemicals and broke the doorknob locking me in.
Spot and the Guardians saw the Rusherz had a bit of rage towards the information given.
Ish: Uhh..guys, your not going to-
Thor: We shall deal with him later. Right now we're just glad nothing serious happened to you Spot.
Spot gave a smile, curling up next to Claw.
Spot: What were you guys tearing up on then?
Stallion: Just telling the Guardians how we got you
Spot smile grew a bit, snuggling closer to Claw.
Ash: Do you know-
Spot: Yeah...I do, but I consider the others my family. They took care of me.
Steed: Still remember your first word.
Troy: What was that?
They Rusherz turned to the Guardians.
Soar: It was a few months later, a Blitzbot had enter the area and we were fighting it. We didn't know that day Spot would be able to crawl out of the crib...but we're glad he did..
Many years ago, Cordalion,
A very small Spot wobbled outside, seeing the Rusherz battle the bot.
Liberty: Keep on going boys! He can't stay up fore-
Liberty was smacked away to a wall. The Blitzbot sent a wave of energy that threw the other Rusherz to Liberty, all laying on the ground. Spot began to tear up, his little legs falling to the ground as the Blitzbot went towards them with murderous intent.
Baby Spot: B-B-B-
BROTHERS!
Something sparked inside the Thirty one Rusherz as the quickly got up and tackled the bot, stunning him before destroying it in a matter of minutes.
Pick-Ax: How-I thought-
Peck: Did you hear that? Was that any of you?
Freefall: It didn't sound like-
The turned to see Spot wobble over, hugging Liberty's leg.
Liberty: What the-HOW DID YOU GET OUT HERE!?
Pack: You don't think the bot saw-
Baby Spot: Brothers.
They froze...looking down at Spot, Liberty picking him up.
Liberty: What did-do you just say-
Baby Spot: Brothers.
Tears pricked their eyes, as smiles formed.
Claw: H-His first-first words.
Blow-Torch: *Tires to hold* Not gonna cry, not gonna cry.
Stampede: Did he call us his-
Baby Spot: *smiles* Brothers!
Blow-Torch: *Fails* DANG IT!
They all hugged the infant, tears of joy falling.
Liberty: T-That's right..we're-we're your brothers, and we'll always will be.
Present...
The Guardians wiped their tears that pricked their eyes.
Ricky: Dang it, just...that is just the sweetest thing I heard.
Spot purred as Claw rubbed his head.
Troy: Your really lucky to have these guys with you.
Spot: I am...
Tua: So, when you guys got to earth...did you-
Beast: He was already ours, but still the president wanted us to sign the papers that we adopted him.
Ash: So he's been your little brother ever since?
Lasso: Yup. Been ours and always will be.
Marty: *Smiles* And we wouldn't have it any other way too/
Their NFLR' rang, showing that the Jaguars were being targeted.
Ish: Normally we would be on the case, but it's Zich sooo-
Ish gave a sly smile, as it was received back by the Thirty one Rusherz.
Liberty: We would be honored to teach Zich a lesson.
Spot smiled...he really did have the best big brothers in the universe
THE
END
