"What's going on, RZ?" Ish asked his leader as he and his fellow friends all arrived at the Hall of Knowledge after being summoned.
"Guardians I'm sorry to pull you away from your activities, but I'm afraid this cannot wait," RZ said as the six Guardians all assembled around their leader, "today the New England Patriots, New Orleans Saints, and Washington Redskins are inviting some local schools to visit their stadium for a tour, on the tour are the teams Megacore vault, with the increasing attacks by the Anticorians and this new unknown threat, I'm splitting you up in order to blend in with the school kids, and be there in case an attack is launched." RZ instructed his Guardians which earned head nods from them.
"Who's going where, RZ?" Ish asked his leader.
"Troy and Tua, you are to report to New Orleans," RZ told the two Guardians as they nodded and quickly ran over to the Portal that would take them to the stadium and stepped into it, "Ish and Ricky you are to report to Washington," RZ ordered them as they ran to the passage for the Redskins and stepped into it, "and lastly Ash and Marty you are to report to New England." RZ said as the last two remaining Guardians as they went over to the passage and stepped into it.
-New England-
"I cant believe my luck." Ash whispered in an almost giddy tone.
"Why's that?" Marty whispered back as he and Ash walked along with the tour group that was currently walking through the halls of Gillet Stadium.
"I'm on guard duty for my favorite team." Ash said simply with a smile on her face as she removed a strand of red hair from her eyes.
Turning around a corner to their right the school group came face to face with the teams trophy case and inside it was the prize of every NFL season, the Vince Lombardi trophy, five of them to be exact since the Patriots had just won Super Bowl 51 a few months ago.
Suddenly their NFL R's began to beep on their wrist, indicating an incoming message. The two young Guardians snuck away from the group and quickly answered the incoming transmission.
"Guardians is everything alright?" the voice of RZ asked them over the radio.
"We're all clear here, RZ." Ash responded to the question. Just as they ended the call they could hear shouting from the tour group, fearing the worst Ash and Marty quickly ran out form behind the corner thy had hid behind and quickly identified the source of the shouting, and let out a sigh of relief, for the shouting was shouts of joy, for the Patriots Rusher Freedom had just arrived and was currently signing autographs and taking selfies with the kids. After a few minutes of the kids interacting with the Rusher they moved unto the next part of the tour, but upon seeing the two Guardians, Freedom stayed behind.
"Good to see you, Ash, Marty." Freedom said as he gave the two Guardians fist bumps.
"Good to see you, Freedom," Ash said before pausing to take a breath, "With the tour of the stadium, RZ sent us here as undercover security, just in case somebody tried something," Ash explained to the Rusher, which earned a head nod from him.
"Yea, RZ told me two Guardians would be arriving, good to see I'm among a Patriots fan." Freedom said with a laugh, which earned one from the red headed guardian. The three of them quickly caught up with the tour group and quickly saw that they where at the most dangerous section of the tour, the teams Megacore vault.
"In front of us is the New England Patriots Megacore vault, and the Patriots Rusher has agreed to allow us a rare entry into the vault," the tour leader said as Freedom went up to the vault and pressed a hidden button, and the solid steel door slowly opened, allowing the kids and tour guide entry into the vault, where there, sitting on a pedestal covered by a blue force field was the New England Patriots Meagacore.
Just sitting there, Ash had to acknowledge that is almost looked peaceful, that this almost normal looking football held such power... well as peaceful as a dark blue metal football glowing with a white aura could be.
Freedom walked up to the Megacore and deactivated the force field and took it off it's pedestal and into his strong hands, carrying it like you would a young child.
"Can I touch it?" one of the younger kids asked. Freedom smiled and put the Megacore within arms reach and allowed the small child to touch the Megacore, which brought a smile to her young face. Suddenly the floor above them began to shake which earned a confused look from all of them. Then the floor above them gave way and in dropped a very familiar looking female Anticorian.
"The Meagacore, give it to me!" Stellaria asked as she held out an armored hand and demanded the Rusher to give her the Megacore.
"Never," Freedom shouted as he tucked the Megacore into his left arm and took up a defensive stance. The tour group had gotten over their initial shock and where now quickly trying to flee out of the Megacore vault, but the Anticorian threw three mechanical balls on the ground in front of them and they quickly grew into horrendous Blitz Borgs, trapping the group between the borgs and the Anticorian.
"Should we fight back?" Marty whispered into Ash's ear.
"We cant, we cant risk exposing out identity to the world, and these kids would definitely tell everyone they know." Ash said as she maintained a look of calm upon her face as she tried to use her brains and find a way out of this problem, true the Anticorians knew who they where already, but these kids did not, and the last thing Ash wanted was these young kids to know who the Guardians of the NFL truly where. They would have to just ride it out here and hope that something happened, but unknown to Ash, something would happen, but it wouldn't be something good.
