And here we derail the timeline from one of my earlier stories that took place during the season. Like i mentioned before "A single butterfly flap can cause a ripple effect in timelines". One change can lead to many different outcomes.
A song i would recommend you listen to during the scene with the Guardians, Rusherz, legends and the three teams would be "Leap of Faith" from Future World Music. :)
Rush Zone Legends Retold
Season 2 retold
Episode 9: Bonds of Brotherhood
HOK, simulation room...
Torgo stood in the center as the armored Guardians, He had the Guardian Playbook open to a page.
Torgo: -Alright, now we're getting more advance in today's training. You guys shall spar with Ish as he has some more experience, to see how we're doing skill wise.
Ish on one side with the remaining four on the other nodded, though they were hesitate on this.
Ish: What's wrong?
Ash: We're just, worried we might get carried away.
The twins smirked.
Freaky D: You kids should be fine. It's more us Rusherz making sure we don't get carried away.
Deaky D: Yeah, not to mention we do it all the time sparing eachother. We're here too so it'll be okay.
They nodded as Torgo blew the whistle.
Troy: Alright, BRING IT ON!
Troy lept onto Ish who deflected him with his shield, but it was just a distracted as Ash came in for a kick. Ish stopped it as she lept back a bit.
Shock: Nice reflects Ash!
Rush Lee: Way to act in mind Troy.
Ish: Not bad, let's see you think fast with this.
Ish blasted the ground sending Ash to it. Tua went over smirking.
Tua: you sure you want a one on one with me?
Ish: Kinda the point of sparing. Give it you all Tiny!
Tua: Alright, but you asked for it.
Both ran to the center as a flash blinded the Legends, sending both to the ground with Ish getting up fast-that was when Marty soon teleported back and forth on Ish.
Marty: *Teleports* I'm over here! *teleports* No, over here now! *Teleports* Unh-uhn. *Teleports* Now you see-*de-transforms* me...
Torgo: Oh boy *blows whistle*.
Deaky D: That's a wrap guys! Great first spar you guys!
The scene shifted to the normal simulation room as the twins went over.
Freaky D: Good idea on the mind tricks, but we still have to work on that focus there.
Marty gave a chuckled as they got up as RZ appeared.
RZ: Very good first sparing match, as well as a excellent practice today. How was the new training simulator?
Shock: Top notch RZ!
Rush Lee: I must say this room will defiantly help us with more advance training rounds.
RZ smiled at the complements.
Ish: I gotta say, you guys kept me on my feet. I was even going easy.
Marty: That was easy? Dang, you were on fire.
Tua: And it was just a practice run.
Torgo: Heh, yeah. He has the advantage of being the first.
Troy: Well, if it helps I was going easy on you too-not to mention you fell for the old red herring.
Rush Lee nudged him playfully as they chuckled.
Ish: Figured that was why you jumped in.
Ash: It worked didn't it.
Marty: True. But next time i want to try it solo against you guys. I want to see what i can do.
Freaky D: I know, I know. But as much as we like your energy Marster, you still need some more EXP.
Deaky D: Yeah, maybe once you all reach that point. Not to mention you need-those coins right?
RZ: You are correct. Marty still needs to earn his shield coin. While this practice was well, i want you all to remember that a victory without honor, is no victory at all.
They nodded as the Legends went to the door.
Ish: You guys are going to be late tonight right?
Torgo: Yep, we're on Raven Megacore duty to allow Scavenger to attend the Symbol of Sportsmanship award ceremony. His teams coach is receiving a reward so we decided to take over watch duty so he could attend.
Marty: That's cool of you to do. I think he needs a break after-well, all that has happened this season.
Spads: Yeah. You got the competition at your school right?
Tua: Yep, Ish and Ash are representing the Bulldogs so we're going to support him.
Marty: You and Troy will, I'm the announcer so gotta stay biased.
Twins: Nice.
Marty smiled as Torgo went to Ish.
Torgo: Remember, don't get cocky. Be a good spot, and-
Ish: *Smiles; nods* Stay in eye site of what is important.
Football Field...
Marty: Still young at age but these kids are working as hard as the Pros! Welcome back to the Canton's Punt, Pass and Kick competition, the mission that attracts the city's best of the best and the stakes couldn't be higher! The winners if the boys and Girls division will advance to the country's sectionals!
Marty was on a role with being the announcer as Ash was preparing for her turn.
Marty: Next up, Ashley "Ash" Reynolds! She nails this pass she is heading to the sectionals. GO FOR IT GIRL!
Ricky came over.
Ricky: Umm-
Marty: Been doing it all day.
Ash nodded, then threw the football with all her might. They watched it soar before it landed very close to the goal line.
Marty: OH YEAH! Best pass of the day! With that Ash Reynolds is the Division Champ for the girls.
Ash grinned as she went back to her friends, Ish heading over.
Marty: Alright, next up; Ishmael "Ish" Taylor. He is way ahead on just about everyone in his division minus Ricky Cervantes who is close second.
Ricky smirked as he leaned closer as Ish was about to kick
Marty: A good kick here and he will be heading for-
Twins: *to Marty* You forgot you backpack.
Both Marty and Ricky let out a scream of startled fear in the microphone with Ish falling back not kicking the ball. Both boys clutched their NOW racing hearts as Freaky and Deaky (disguised) chuckled as Freaky placed Marty's backpack next to the table.
Ricky: Jeez man! Warn us!
Twins: Sorry about that. You both okay?
Marty: My heart is now racing more than ever, and thank you for bringing my backpack.
Deaky D: No problem, *sees Ish* SORRY ISH!
Freaky D: *worry* Oh geez i hope we didn't eliminate him.
Marty: Don't worry, watch.
Ish took a breath calming his heart as the Referee went over.
Referee: No-Kick.
Both brothers sighed in relief hearing this.
Referee: Alright, that is a five yard penalty, you have another attempt.
Ish: Thanks.
Ish got up as he took a breath before kicking the football. The football flew to the ground after a while, landing at just the right spot as Ish and Ash cheered. Troy and Tua went over celebrating as Ricky slucked. His father came over placing a arm on his shoulder.
Don Cervantes: Ricky, let's go-
Both stopped when Deaky held up his hand, a clean tissue in it and the small package of them in the other. A warm smile was on his face.
Don Cervantes: What is-
Deaky D: Ricky, you were about to sneeze when we scared you there. Last thing we want is you to get sick before the big game.
Both Don and Ricky were shocked, Ricky grabbing the tissue nodding.
Ricky: Um, thank you?
Freaky D: Thankfully the finals I heard is going to be inside so less worry about catching the cold, the illness not the temp.
Don Cervantes: Y-Yes. We-shall see you all later then.
Both left with Ricky giving a VERY confused look. Ish was expecting a snare, but the twins seem to have changed that.
Ricky: So um-see you at the finals, me vs. you remember.
Ish nodded as both walked off with the twins smirking.
Tua:-How did you? I have so many questions?
Freaky D: Knew he was gonna fake it, why did you think we startle him them.
Deaky D: So we just showed some kindness, competitiveness can only go so far.
Troy:-I swear you two can melt any hearts just by that.
Both brothers grinned.
Freaky D: I hope Scavenger's coach's night goes well.
Deaky D: Speaking which, got any info on him? Curious.
Marty came over smiling.
Marty: Both to be honest. He has a brother that is also involved in this ceremony too. His brother is Jim Harbaugh, the current head coach of the San Francisco 49ers. Before, he was drafted in 1987 for the Chicago Bears and had a fourteen year career as a quarterback, becoming a pro bowl selection in 1996. He started his rookie season as a A.P. NFL Coach in 2011.
Twins: And his brother getting the award?
Marty: That would be John Harbaugh, Coach for Scavenger's team the Baltimore Ravens. He's been coaching since 1984 so he has twenty eight years of both college and pro football under his belt, ten of those being with the Philadelphia Eagles. He currently has forty wins since he arrived in Baltimore as has since led the Ravens into the postseason every season and that includes the current running in the playoffs this season.
Freaky D: COOL! Seems Scavenger got a good coach leading-
Deaky D: *Confused* Why you guys look so shock?
The rest of the Guardians were in a bit of shock but shoke it off.
Ish: Y-Yeah, those two have been making news giving how good both teams their coaching are doing-
Freaky D: Alright, why did you kids look shock?
The Guardians froze there, derailing the question was not a option.
Deaky D: Yeah, Scavenger is a great guy and his team has been chugging hard.
Freaky D: So, why that look?
They were silent for a while there, but Marty sighed taking the reigns.
Marty: It's because of who I am a fan of, the Browns.
Twins: What's the problem there?
Marty:-The Ravens are HATED by most Browns fans for the late founders involvement that caused the Browns to be defunct for a while. It doesn't help when the late owner was in charge of the Browns there were some problems.
Freaky D:-And your opinion on the Ravens?
Deaky D: Your honest opinion Marty, please?
Marty: Don't worry, i don't let what happen in the past judge the team nor Scavenger. It's bad enough Scavenger has to deal with all the stress but-what happened this season-Not to mention-with Modell's passing this season, I'm hoping maybe this will cool down the hatred.
Both were sadden hearing this, but were happy that he had the day off from all the stress and that their linked Guardian held no remorse or anger towards their Raven Friend.
That night; Symbol of Sportsmanship award...
Scavenger had his eyes on his coach and Jim as he began his speech.
John Harbaugh: It is a honor to accept this award and to share it with my brother Jim.
Jim Harbaugh: John and I have a tremendous respect for one another. It could be either on the field or at home.
John nudged his brother as the crowd laughed.
John: Alright Jim. Well, in this spirit of Good sportsmanship *Scavenger turned* Good luck- *his eyes widen seeing a shine of* In Sunday-
Scavenger: *Panic* DOWN NOW!
The sound of something going off was heard as Scavenger tackled both to the ground. The crowd went silent there, panic rolling in.
Rich Eisen: Call the police! Whoever that was could not have gone far! EVERYONE REMAIN CALM!
He saw who it was-he saw what he had-and pure RAGE filled his mind-
THAT WAS THE LAST STRAW.
HOK, Next day...
Torgo: OKAY. Let's remain calm, or try to-
The Guardians ran in seeing the Legends and Scavenger.
Ish: We got the message and came as fast as we could! RZ what happened?
RZ: Guardians, we have just heard of a attempt on John Harbaugh being attacked during the Symbol of Sportsmanship awards.
Scavenger: Yeah, he hasn't been himself since.
Troy: Can you blame him. It's bad enough he under alot of pressure facing his bothers team and the possibility of them facing in the Super Bowl.
Rush Lee: But this attack must of spooked him worse if what Scavenger told us is true. He has not even spoken to his brother.
RZ: As much as it was expect from a small amount of sibling rivalry, seasoned coaches like John would at least keep contact with his brother after a event like this.
Torgo: Ish; you, me, Ash and Shock will be heading to San Francisco to check on Jim and with Pick-Ax, maybe find some information.
Marty: And the rest of us?
RZ: You will accompany Scavenger to Baltimor-
Scavenger: Are you sure it a good idea for Marty, who is a Brown fan, to come to the stadium?
-That was unexpected.
RZ: Scavenger?
Shock: Well, i mean yeah, Marty is a Guarid-
Scavenger: I just don't want him to get hurt that's all. Y-You know the-situation between our teams.
Marty stood firm nodding.
Marty: I'm not afraid of that don't worry. RZ, Scavenger, is it all right if I armor up? Maybe that can ease your worries.
The twins nodded.
Freaky D: Safer that way-
Deaky D: And ready for action.
RZ: That is actually what i wish for all you to do. Until we know what we are dealing with, all Guardians be in Guardian Power Mode. Legends, if a battle comes go into the NFLRs IMMEDIATLY.
Legends: RIGHT!
With a shout the team armored up and went off.
Freaky D: Sooo-Baltimore Ravens.
Deaky D: And the San Francisco 49s.
Both: More details on the teams involved in this Martser?
Marty nodded as they entered with Scavenger...the portal being watched by K-9 in worry.
.
Marty: Well, let's start with the Ravens since we're heading there. Their inaugural season was 1996, and in only five years won their first Super Bowl with Super Bowl thirty five. They have a reputation of having a strong defense, with their name being from Edger Allen Poe's poem of the same name.
Freaky D: They got their name based on a Poem?
Deaky D: Interesting. What about Pick-Ax's Team?
Marty: The San Francisco 49ers were founded in 1946 and is the tenth oldest franchise in the NFL, having set numerous and notable NFL records since then. They have win five Super Bowls and have not lost in a Super Bowl appearance as of yet. The team has won ten or more games for sixteen straight seasons that started in 1980.
Scavenger:-We're here.
.
.
John Harbaugh walked in to see the Guardians, Legends and Rusherz.
Marty: Excuse me Mr. Harbaugh? Can we talk to you for a minute.
He gave a weak smile shaking his head.
John Harbaugh: Would like to, but we got to run. Airplane to catch.
Scavenger: *worry* B-But coach-
John went down to Scavenger.
John Harbaugh: I know their the Guardians but we have to be aware just, you know. We can't have anyone get hurt.
He got up and walked away.
Scavenger: You see what i mean?
Rush Lee: That is-odd.
Spads: Yeah, he really is spooked if he didn't want to talk to the Guardian-
Marty: Scavenger are you sure somethings off with him?
Scavenger, to the only knowledge of the twins, slightly flinched.
Scavenger: W-Why you say that?
Tua: Marty?
Marty: It's just-you seem off the most and i can understand that you are with-ya know.
Troy: Oh yeah, what happened to you this season.
Scavenger blinked, but chuckled weakly.
Scavenger: Don't worry about me, let's just escort the team to San Francisco just to be safe.
They nodded as they followed-with the twins trialing behind.
Freaky D: You heard that crack in his voice and saw that flinch too right?
Deaky D: Yeah, something tells me it's not the coach we should be worrying about.
Candlestick Stadium...
Ish: Thanks again for talking with us Coach.
Torgo: We know you are busy with the big games coming up but this is important.
Ash: Yeah, not to mention the game against the Ravens.
Jim sighed nodded as Pick-Ax sat next to him.
Jim Harbaugh: Yeah, the two of us have been worried. My Brother has been through the ringer this season what with the-Modell's passing.
Pick-Ax: You noticed how he seems to stay close to Scavs too huh?
He nodded.
Jim Harbaugh: He hasn't been himself with what happened too. So, both of us are glad you all are getting involved.
Shock: Figured Sibling rivalry wasn't at play. But-what then?
Pick-Ax: *to Jim* I know you two have been competing with eachother since you were kids.
Jim Harbaugh: Yeah, he's a great competitor with the upmost respect for me, the game and the others. So, for him to go silent and not contact me if he's okay or not...something is up.
Ish: We'll find out what is really going on sir-
Torgo and Shock went into the NFLRs as the they went on the defensive.
Ash: Think it found us!
A large Blitzbot loomed over then as it's sharp hands spun fast.
Ash: DEFENSE ENGAGE (Shock: STATIC REACTION!)
Ash with Shock's help stunned the Blitzbot in place.
Shock's voice: Get Jim out we got this!
Ash: This Blitzbot isn't going anyway.
They nodded as Pick-Ax lead them away from the battle.
Ish: Where is the Megacore?
Torgo's voice: Yeah, we need to keep it away from them. Last thing we want is more stress on us.
Jim Harbaugh: This way.
Jim lead the small group to a door, sighing in relief.
Jim Harbaugh: Safe. Listen, the only way you could get past the retinal scan is that me, a Guardian or Pick-Ax can us it-
HA!
They turned fast to see Dropkick aiming a weapon at them.
Dropkick: I could get if i wanted to, but where's the fun in that.
He shot at Jim, bit Ish jumped in getting a small hit and-
Dropkick: Dang it i-i was aiming for hi-
He was slapped by Ish, who was silent as Ash ran over.
Ash: Hey back off!
Dropkick: Urg, you ruin everything.
With that Dropkick sent a smoke bomb and vanished before Ash got to him.
Ash: Where is he?
Shock jumped out looking everyone over.
Shock: Everyone okay?
Ish was silent, but nodded...however-
Pick-Ax: Umm, Torgogo?
Nothing...
All three: Oh no.
Later, HOK...
Rush Lee: Is he trapped in there?
Ish was being looked over. Dispite being out of armor he had said nothing and Torgo had not come out.
Tua: So, you okay man?
He nodded again, getting up and leaving.
Troy:-OKAY. He's acting weird. Like really weird.
Pick-Ax grabbed his helmet confused.
Pick-Ax: You think something has gotten him bothered like with John?
Spads: Oh dear. This isn't good. First John now this.
Scavenger eye twitched there.
RZ: Perhaps something has inflected the two. Whatever has inflicted Ish it is being countered by Torgogo.
Shock: At least to the best of his ability.
Ash: T-Then what can we do?
Marty: We should keep an eye on Ish during all this.
Freaky D: *to RZ* And you can see what is going on. Given how things have escalated, we might need to bring out that 'project; we have been working on.
RZ nodded.
Shock: Project?
Deaky D: Something me, my bro and RZ have been working on.
RZ: Until then i shall continue to run analysis. For now keep an eye on Ish. *To Scavenger* And please continue to monitor John.
Scavenger:-Don't worry. I got it...in fact...i have a plan set already.
With that he walked away as the team left.
Marty-You two got a bad vibe from that line?
Freaky D: Yeah, Scavs is definitely feeling and sounding off.
Deaky D: He almost sounded-angry and tired.
Marty nodded...and from afar K-9 watched in worry hearing all this.
.
.
Ricky smirked as he threw another Football in the game-hole.
Ricky: Heh, beat that-
Ish quietly walked over, startling Ricky.
Ricky: Geez man! What gives!
Ish cocked his head, looking at Ricky.
Ricky: Ummm, dude-*Ish brings his face close to eye contact* WH-WHAT THE-?
Ish starred into Ricky, who was a little creeped out on this.
Ricky: O-kay. If it's about what i tired to do at the tryouts-I'm sorry? I mean, I'm still going to the sectionals cause my dad got me into the Massillon local com and won so-
He kept staring. Ricky starred back-and his eyes widen upon realization.
Ricky: Was your-eyes always silver?
ISH?
Matt went over removing his son from the VERY Worrisome stare down as the Guardians and Legends came over.
Lt. Matt: Ish, what are you-
Freaky D: It's a LONG story, tell you later.
Ricky: I-I just-what?
Lt. Matt: We'll, call you father and have him pick you up.
Ricky nodded as he walked off.
Ricky: I need to take it easy, this was way to weird.
With him out of site and Ish walking away Matt turned to the team.
Lt. Matt: Torgo is stuck in Ish's soul isn't he.
Legends: Y-Yes.
Spads: NO CLUE WHY OR HOW.
Matt pinched his nose.
Lt. Matt: Never a dull moment with you all.
Ash: What was Ish even doing?
Shock: He just-starred at Ricky.
Rush Lee: *thinking* Perhaps, there is more to Ricky than meets the eye.
Troy: Well whatever is going on we need to help Ish and Torgo.
Ash nodded in worry at this.
Ash: This is really bad. No Ish-
Marty sighed, shaking his head.
Marty: Listen. I know things are, really confusing and off, but let's keep our focus on helping them than the stress and panic.
The twins nodded.
Freaky D: Marty is right! Ish, Torgo, John and Jim, and our friends need us now more than ever.
Deaky D: Us being mopey and stress won't help. So let's put our all into helping our friends team!
They gave the three smiles, nodding.
.
.
.
Freaky D: ANNND, DONE!
It took a while but Freaky and Deaky smiled as they looked at their hard work on a table smiling.
Deaky D: Perfect and on time.
The two smirked looking at the small circular devices before placing them near their shoes. In a flash they device was on. Their shoes had decals; Freaky had flames and waves, while Deaky had lighting and leaves blowing.
Twins: We'll kill it on the floor, both field and dance.
Meanwhile...
Wildcard: So, you failed to get the other coach.
Both sat in the ELL as Dropkick informed Wildcard of the events.
Dropkick: There is the possibility we have a Guardian under your control.
Wildcard was silent.
Wildcard: I control a Guardian-with a legend trapped inside. It appears your incompatence has work to our advantage..Now, let's have some real fun. Get John over to the beach, and get that camera ready.
He nodded-two not noticing the red dot already in San Francisco.
Later, San Francisco Candlestick Stadium...
Ish was in Guardian armor heading to the door. He placed his hand on the retial opening the door when Pick-Ax noticed him running over.
Pick-Ax: Ish?! What are you doing?
Ish (Torgo): *glitched* HELPING A FRIEND.
-Yeah, you are.
Both were side kicked in the head knocking them out. Pick-Ax vision swam as he saw the color purple before he passed out.
.
.
.
Later on, Beaches...
Wildcard and Dropkick watched as John walked over with the 49ers Megacore on the beach.
Wildcard: Now that's brotherly love i can believe in...*walking over* Are you getting this Dropkick?
He nodded holding the camera as it recorded.
.
Jim was looking for Pick-Ax when John appeared, looking worried.
Jim Harbaugh: *runs over* John, where in the world were you?! I heard nothing from you-?!
John Harbaugh: S-Sorry, i was focused on helping Scavenger. He's been out of it since that whole ordeal-
Jim Harbaugh: *confused* Scavenger? I just saw him and he looked like he was doing fine, he told me you have been out of it.
John was confused at that.
John Harbaugh: I'm fine..just worried about Scavenger-wait, why was here-
The sound of banging was heard.
.
Wildcard: Look at this, the Ravens Coach is handing me the 49ers Megacore.
Dropkick: *Still recording* Deliciously evil sir. Very much so.
.
RZ was looking at the map when he got a buzz.
RZ: Hello-
Pick-Ax:*Panic* RZ WE NEED THE GUARDIANS AND TORGO'S TEAM ASAP! OUR MEGACORE IS GONE-
RZ: Is John over there?
Pick-Ax:*Panic* I-WELL-YES!
RZ: I have detected him at a beach near Candlestick, we may find the missing coach there-
Pick-Ax:*Panic* THAT'S THE THING!
.
'John' smiled-it was wrong.
Pick-Ax voice:*Panic* THAT'S NOT JOHN HARBAUGH!
The Megacore burned a bright red nearly burning Wildcard who was taken back by Dropkick.
Wildcard: You idiot what are you-
The two turned to see him laughed, and laughed, a broken laugh-the sky above turned dark as clouds unexpectedly formed as a storm brewed. They watched, in shock-and then to horror as the disguised glowed as shrank to reveal holding TWO Megacores.
Wildcard and Dropkick: S-Scavenger?
Scavenger slowly looked up, his eyes all red as he gave a broken and mad grin.
Scavenger:-Got you RIGHT where i want you.
.
.
.
John Harbaugh: *Frantic* DRIVE! DRIVE SPADS DRIVE!
Jim Harbaugh: *Frantic* CAN YOU DRIVE FASTER?!
Spads was speeding in the 49er's bus to the location as the brother held on with the other Guardians and Legends, Pick-Ax trying to wake Ish up still.
Spads: *Sternly* Guys i am going as fast as this can and b-believe me it's fast!
Troy: Can we take a minute to ask what is going on?!
Pick-Ax nodded fast.
Pick-Ax: Scavenger knocked me and Ish out, and i think with all that has happened he finally snapped and he is-*sees the sky; panic* DANG IT!
They all looked to see the sky turn dark.
Ash: My gosh...
Tua: Is that SCAVENGER'S DOING?
Rush Lee: Great, we're on a ticking time bomb now!
Marty was shaken as he only saw a small ray of light-before something glinted in his eyes as he turned to it-seeing someone on Ish's neck.
Marty: What is-
Freaky D: What's up Marty?
Marty: Look.
All three went down to see a circular device on Ish's neck.
Deaky D: Hey, we've seen this before.
Marty removed it and-Torgo popped out of the NFLR gasping for air as Ish bolted up rubbing his head. Everyone turned seeing this as Ash and Shock tackled them into a hug.
Ish: I-What-what just happened?
Ash: Ish your back!
Torgo was shaken a bit as he looked at Shock.
Torgo: Oh shards of the core...Shock you were there for that long?
Shock eyes widen realizing where Torgo was during all this. He mouthed a later as Torgo and Ish looked outside.
Torgo: What in sam hill did we miss? Looks like a storm raising there.
Pick-Ax: That's Scavenger..he snapped.
Ish and Torgo eyes widen in fear at this.
Jim Harbaugh: Now I wish he never founded out about Wildcard's plan-
Freaky D: Hey guys, think we have an answer.
All turned to the twins and Marty, who were looking over the circular object.
Deaky D: A Micro Blitzbot, this little bugger must of been messing with your brain waves Ish.
Tua: You mean this tiny thing?
Twins: Yeah.
Marty: It must only work at a certain location, you know where there is close range to the brain. That explains the weird behavior.
John Harbaugh: Then-what's it doing to Scavenger?
Both twins looked serious, something that brought worry in all presents eyes.
Freaky D: For a Rusher brain waves with this, it brings to the forefront their deepest desire.
Marty paled at this.
Marty: He want's to protect the people he cares about...even if it means-
Troy: *rising panic* So we just need to find it, get close enough and-
Rush Lee: *shakes his head* Not possible. In his state, it's a death sentence.
Ish: *realization*-Red eye syndrome.
Ash, the legends, Pick-Ax and the coaches paled.
Troy, Tua and Marty: Red eye syndrome?
Ash: When a Rusherz rage it's at the breaking point.
Shock: At that point, their power is at the most extreme and they will stop at nothing to stop any foes
Tua:-So..your telling us that Scavenger is basically a walking time bomb with the power to level the entirety of San Francisco and him with it...
It was dead silent there-before John took Spads off the wheel and slammed on the accelerator in panic as his brother tried to get him off.
Jim Harbaugh: *frantic* JOHN-!
John Harbaugh: *frantic* I'M NOT HAVING SCAVENGER DIE JIM!
Jim Harbaugh: *frantic* I KNOW BUT TOSSING THE DRIVER OUT!
Marty came up with a plan.
Marty: HEY!
All turned to Marty who stood firm with Freaky and Deaky.
Marty: Does anyone have a flight ability? One of use can get there fast and try to cool the situation!
Ish: No, it's still in the works.
Freaky D: Well-me and Deaky could get Marty there.
All: Really?
Deaky D: *Points to shoes* Remember that project we were working on.
Marty: Alright! We'll go over and try to stop Scavenger and make some calls! You guys be careful getting here but if worse happened-we'll need backup.
The team was quiet before-
Harbaugh brothers: Forget getting the Megacores, just SAVE Scavenger.
Ish: And please, be careful.
Marty and the twins nodded as they went into the NFLRs. John opened the bus door as Marty flew out in a stream of Fire, water, lightning, and earth.
.
.
.
Wildcard and Dropkick were actually in fear seeing the glowing Raven holding both the 49ers and Ravens Megacore.
Scavenger: Well-surprised? You can't trust a Raven you know.
Wildcard: Where is John?
Scavenger: Heh, safe and out of reach from you two. Besides, I don't want him or the others here for this. Things are going to get-messy.
He slowly allowed the Megacores to merge with eachother.
Dropkick: *Realization* ARE YOU TRYING TO TAKE US ALL OUT?!
Scavenger smirked, making Wildcard growl in anger.
Wildcard: Do you REALLY think this would stop any of us! Even if we are taken out temporary I will not STOP until i get all the Megacores, end Football and get my revenge.
Scavenger smirked fell as he looked at Wildcard.
Scavenger:-Would that change anything?
Wildcard was taken aback, but the Raven continued as did the storm.
Scavenger: Would that stop people getting murdered? Would that stop the genocide? Hunger? Assault? Would taking Football away change the past? Or stop the wars past and present? Would taking football away bring back the DEAD?
Wildcard felt something he never thought he would feel-FEAR.
Scavenger: Tell me Wildcard; WHAT WOULD GETTING RIDE OF FOOTBALL DO?
Wildcard eyes shrank at the question, it echoed in his mind. Even Dropkick had to admit he was in fear.
Scavenger: Not that I would allow this to continue-
Dropkick: *Fear* DO YOU HAVE NO SELF PRESERVATION TO YOURSELF! YOU WILL DIE ALONGSIDE US!
He sighed as he closed his eyes.
Scavenger:-Well, at least Browns fans will get what they want-right? I am just as to blame for causing pain as well.
With the Megacores fully merged, Scavenger raise it to the air to spike it.
Scavenger: SAY GOODNIG-
SCAVENGER!
He stopped, lower his arms as he turned to see Marty, Freaky and Deaky. All present on the other side were watching to see who would make the first move in what was thought to be a fight but-
Marty: *calm* Scavenger, put down the Megacore. I know your going through alot and what happened is not helping but-this is not going to help.
Scavenger was shocked to hear that.
Freaky D: *calm* Yeah, Marty told us what happened during your team's tenure. We know you have been healing too.
Deaky D: *calm* And what these metal heads did was NO HELP to your stress at all. But i don't think taking out the tri state area is a good idea.
Scavenger looked away sadly as the bus arrived as the Guardians, Coaches, and Rusherz ran out and over. Marty took a breath and-
Marty: *calm* I'm sorry for what the Browns fans did to you. I get it, the whole situation was a was a mess even before the Ravens came , but we're humans. I know we make mistakes and those mistakes sometimes causes alot of hate and fear. But it shouldn't have to hurt you guys in the process. So-I'll do my best making a future where the rivalry between the Browns and Ravens isn't made of hate.
Scavenger shoke as tears fell.
Scavenger: Marty-it's not that simple. Even if I did not cause physical pain, or was not involved in the battle between Modell and Cleveland, I was still a catalyst for this.
Freaky D: I don't think the Browns blame you for what had happened.
Deaky D: Past or present, they would not blame you no matter what.
Scavenger closed his eyes.
Scavenger: They might, but the fans already voiced theirs. So-I'll give them their wish.
Scavenger lifted the Megacore in tears and a small smile.
All: *Fear* SCAVENGER!
He spiked it to the ground-
Only for the Megacore to be kicked to the air before it hit the ground.
Marty and the Twins: -sighs in relief- He made it.
Scavenger eyes were wide, his hands gentle being held as the person, or Rusher, sweating from running and teleporting here, holding them was-
K-9: Scavenger what are you doing?
Scavenger was speechless as the skies cleared slowly, K-9 lowering the Ravens arms.
Pick-Ax: How did he-*realization* You called him.
Marty: He knew something was wrong too.
The Guardians and coaches turned to Marty, the realization that he had called K-9 over fast.
K-9: I swear you keep piling these on your shoulders and you keep hurting yourself.
The Raven was shaking as K-9 placed a hand on his cheek.
K-9:-I-I'm sorry there isn't much I can do with the fans. But-I don't and will never blame you, or the Ravens, for what happened. I'll always have your back, not matter what.
Scavenger irises returned going in and out as he sob mouthing 'HELP ME'. Realzing that Scavenger had been mentally fighting HIS OWN DESIRE, the Guardians tired to run over only to be stopped by the Rusherz could still feel the overwhelming energy.
Deaky D: It's still too dangerous for humans to cross, one foot in that field circle and your fired.
Freaky D: First where is the-THERE IT IS!
They saw the Micro Blitzbot on the Ravens back with Marty looked at Pick-Ax.
Marty: Pick-Ax!
Pick-Ax nodded as the twins spun in place before-
Twins: SPIRAL SNAP!
-sending a cool burst of wind at Pick-Ax who was launched with a cry as his namesake swiped the Blitzbot off. The Megacore, from all the energy, engulfed the area in light destroying the Micro Blitzbot and un-merging. Dropkick grabbed one before taking Wildcard back in the ELL and fleeing. Blinded for a moment, the light fad as the heroes opened their eyes. Scavenger was limp in K-9's arms with the Rusher shaking him and Pick-Ax running over with the others following suit after getting the okay from the Legend Rusherz.
John Harbaugh: Scavenger-
Pick-Ax: *feels Scavenger's forehead* He's burning up.
Ish: We gotta take him back to the stadium now!
Troy: Wait- where's-
Jim saw a glow as he went over, paling when he came back with only one Megacore, HIS TEAM'S. But there was also something else, the camera that Dropkick was using-and it was still recording.
K-9: Oh no-the teams are going to be broken at this.
K-9 looked down at Scavenger, who had not woken up.
Later, HOK...
It was quiet as the team sat in sorrow, RZ looking at them sadly after looking at the screen.
Torgo: How bad RZ?
RZ: -sighs- The teams feel heartbroken. Both the Ravens and 49ers are at a unrest and in stress, and then there's the Browns-
He trailed off, needless to say Brown nation went completely silent after seeing the video. Ish covered his face with his hands.
Ish: I can't believe it gotten this bad. Marty your quick thinking just prevented a even worse tragedy.
Marty nodded, but-
Marty: A-Any updates in Scavenger?
RZ shoke his head sadly, the twins comforting Marty.
Freaky D: Freefall should be heading over to see what he can do.
Deaky D: Yeah, I'm sure he could find out why Scavenger hasn't woken up yet.
Freaky D: Besides, Ish is right. You just save both Scavenger and San Francisco.
Deaky D: You were quick on not only your feet but with mind given the situation.
Marty gave a small smile, as did RZ.
RZ: Marty, i do believe you have earned this.
Ash nodded as she handed Marty a Shield coin, surprising him and the twins.
Marty: I-Sir I-it's a great honor.
Deaky D: Does that mean Marty is a full Guardian?
RZ: Yes, he is and i know he will use it wisely and well.
The twins gave a smile, before the legends became serious.
Freaky D: What do we do about the current situation now.
RZ: With the high possibility of Wildcard attacking, everyone remain on duty and alert. I will call you when Freefall has examined Scavenger.
Troy: Yeah-with this time Ish, I think you need to apologies to Ricky for freaking him out.
Ish and Torgo:-I'm sorry what did I (He) Do?
Football field...
Ricky sighed seeing the postpone sign. The again he couldn't blame them given the news that slammed everyone.
Ish: Uhh, hi Ricky. Glad i ran into you.
Ricky turned fast seeing Ish and Torgo (disguised).
Ricky: Your-glad, really?
Ish: Yeah, i want to apologizes for-well, the weird reaction from earlier today. I was, a bit off with all that's been going on.
Torgo: Yeah-*sees the sign* I take it the game is postpone.
Ricky: I don't blame them-I feel bad for the Rusherz. Yeah I might be all for competition-but-not when it's hurt people. So-I'll catch you in the finales okay?
Ish nodded, reaching out his hand as the two handshake. Ricky gave a nod heading off.
Torgo: Proud of you Ish.
Ish: Yeah, sometimes you just get caught up with the competition.
Ish's NFLR beeped as he looked at it with Torgo-and they paled in horror and sorrow.
Candlestick Stadium...
Pick-Ax: *Tears* WHAT DO YOU MEAN HE WON'T WAKE UP AGAIN!?
Freefall was pinned to the wall by Pick-Ax, who was shaking in anger and sorrow. K-9 had tears running down his face with the teams, Guardians and Legends left in shock, Shock holding the ICON in his hands. Freefall sadly shoke his head looking at Scavenger, who was laying on the bed.
Freefall: I tried everything guys, but-with all the energy he used merging the Megacores and his brain waves going all over the place fighting back, his energy was left at a stand still.
Tua: What about the-
Freefall: Wildcard has it, and even with that it won't be enough. I tired with the ICON and even the strong power from that wasn't enough.
John Harbaugh:-What's going to happen to him if we don't get his energy moving.
Freefall looked away.
Freefall: It will build up, before heating his entire body and-
K-9: It's gonna kill him?
Freefall didn't respond. He didn't need to as Pick-Ax let go sinking to his knees as the news hit everyone present hard. K-9 shoke.
K-9: Scavenger-he's gonna die...
He took a deep breath before seeing the map showing a red dot heading over. Dispite being in tears, his eyes narrow in anger as he got up, and began to walk.
John Harbaugh: K-9-Where are you going?
K-9:-I'm defending your team, coach. Let my fans scoff I DON'T CARE.
The Guardians nodded with Pick-Ax.
Pick-Ax: *grips his weapon; tears falling* Right behind you Karnivious.
Ish: *to the Legends* Can you guys stay here?
Legends: Yes.
Spads: We'll keep an eye on Scavenger.
Freefall: I'll head back to the HOK to find anything to get his energy back moving.
They nodded as The Guardians headed off with K-9 and Pick-Ax, with Freefall making a portal and heading to the HOK. Before all of them left, Marty stopped at the door, turning to the teams.
Marty: I promise, no matter what, we'll find a way to save him.
Marty left, and Torgo slumped on the wall falling to the floor sitting.
Torgo: What are we going to do? There's got to be something...
With that, the room was left in sorrowful silence.
.
.
.
A missile from the ELL headed to the stadium, only for the Guardians and two Rusherz to appear.
Guardians: DEFENSE ENGAGE!
With the the missile was deflected and clanked on the stone ground.
Marty: Okay, did we get it? I mean didn't use my new powers but if it gives us more time to help Scavenger-
Troy: Not over yet-Look!
The missile formed into a large Blitzbot. It fired a eye lazer to which K-9 responded with a blast from his Browns Growl.
K-9: Alright-full power, no holding back. That goes for you guys.
Pick-Ax: HERE COMES ROUND TWO!
It was about to fire again-when a loud roar and a fiery wave stopped it. The Guardians and two Rusherz looked behind it to see Fang and Blow-Torch, both in rage and tears even though Blow-Torch welders mask was on.
Fang: No holding back, right?
Blow-Torch: Right, -raspy breath- I'll turn this nut into mercury!
The two tackled the Blitzbot, though nothing had happened as the two joined the heroes.
Ish: EVERYONE SPREAD OUT!
They ran and spread out as the Blitzbot walked and fired at the heroes. Tua tired to stop it in place before being thrown to the side.
Ash: That is as FAR AS YOU GO!
She kicks it, and even though she was in armor, the strong hard metal hurt as she grabbed her foot before knocking back Ish and Troy.
.
.
.
The teams and Legends we sitting in silence sorrow-until finally, Torgo looked up, determination on his face.
Shock: Torgogo?
He got up going over to Scavenger, the teams noticing a golden yellow glow outline him.
Freaky D: Torgogo? Are you sure? Do-Do you think it'll work?
Deaky D: And if it does, You know the others will start asking questions.
Torgo *echo*: It's our only option left.
Jim Harbaugh: W-What are you doing?
The legends looked at the team, before turning to eachother nodding. They closed their eyes as a golden glow shone from them. They opened their eyes reveling the same golden glow.
Spads *echo*: Man, it's been decades since we been in this.
Rush Lee *echo*: Through, i wish it was not for, dire reasons.
John Harbaugh:-This can save Scavenger?
Freaky D *echo*: We're hoping it will. We have no other options and if we do-it'll be to late.
Deaky D *echo*: However, we have no idea if us and the ICON would work-we're missing one-
Both coaches: LET US HELP!
They turned to the coaches who stood firm in assisting them.
Shock *echo*: *To The others* They are powered by the past heroes on and off the field. This would be beneficial.
Torgo *echo*: Alright *nods; holds hand out* You two ready-
They nodded, however the players, assistant coaches, staff stepped forward.
John Harbaugh: Guys-
David Reed: Yeah we're all helping too. Scavenger has gone through enough and we can't stand him getting hurt from Humanities madness anymore.
Patrick Willis: We put our all in the game, so we're going to put in our all into saving Scavenger. Just tell us what to do coach.
This brought pride to the two coaches hearing this, The Legends nodded, holding their hands out as the coaches grabbed them with the teams placing their hands shoulder to shoulder. One the legends grabbed eachother hands, they slowly closed their eyes.
.
.
Marty looked on as the Blitzbot marched to the Stadium.
Marty: *to the Rusherz* There got to be someway to stop him!
Fang: He must be powered up by the Megacore, Pick-Ax's who's is-
Pick-Ax: Ravens.
Both Fang and Blow-Torch paled, but shoke their heads.
Blow-Torch: Dang it..
Pick-Ax gripped his weapon, tears falling.
Pick-Ax: I should had gone with him that night. I should check on him afterwards. I-Why didn't i go with him. I promised him it'll all be okay AND I LET HIM WALK TO HIS GRAVE-!
K-9: *Tears falling* I feel just as bad too! My team fans have been nothing but more weight on Scavenger's stress and this season alone has punched that into his face...You know that most were HAPPY that Modell DIED?! I get there were problems when he was there but HE'S HUMAN! HE WAS HUMAN AND HE WAS FIGHTING A ILLNESS AND HE HAD A FAMILY AND YOU ARE CHEERING THAT HE DIED!
The Blitzbot froze and both Guardian and Rusherz hearing the scream as they turned to see K-9 shaking in tears and anger.
Pick-Ax: K-9-
K-9: *tears and anger* I-It's sick, isn't it. Even with the power of the Browns Shard, even being a powerful being, even with being a Rusher...I CAN'T DO ANYTHING TO STOP THE HATE AND PROTECT MY FRIENDS.
K-9 sobbed as he fell to his knees, Marty running over making the Rusher look at him
Marty: NOW you all listen to me!
Marty's voice sounded cracked as he spoke.
Marty: You done all you could. It's not you, nor Pick-Ax, nor anyone other Rusherz fault! We humans tend to hold on to things too long and it escalates to the point we it still can be fix but there is damage. It's not Scavenger's or anyone's fault for what happened in the 90s, it's not your fault for how fans react, it NONE OF YOU GUYS FAULT! AND I SWEAR ON THE CORE ITSELF I WILL DEFEND THAT NOTION!
It was there the sky went dark, a almost purple hue to it. The Guardians turned, Marty and the Rusherz looked at the stadium which glowed.
Fang: Guys...
Marty, though he had no idea how, knew the Legends must of come up with something as he turned to his friends.
Marty: GUYS HELP ME WITH THIS!
Marty shared his energy with his link; followed by Ish, Ash, Troy and Tua. K-9 got up, took a breath, before sending some of his energy over to the stadium.
Blow-Torch: YOU HEARD THE KID! FULL POWER!
Pick-Ax, Blow-Torch and Fang followed seconds after.
.
.
The room glowed with a mix of gold and purple with the Legend Rusherz eyes opened as them floating a bit. The teams concentrated as the Ravens, 49ers and-Both teams looked beside the other to see a third team involved being-
Jim Harbaugh: *shock* WH-What you-Doing here?
The BROWNS were there helping the teams and Rusherz.
John Harbaugh: *shock* N-NOT TO SOUND RUDE-BUT WHY-
Randy Lerner: WE ARE NOT LOSING SCAVENGER, NOT LIKE THIS!
Jimmy Haslam: THIS RIVALRY IS NOT GONNA TAKE HIS LIFE!
Josh Cribbs: BESIDES, RIVALRY OR NOT WE DON'T LEAVE A BROTHER BEHIND!
With that all three teams determination became a blinding light upon the Raven as Scavenger slowly rose glowing. Soon the room was covered in light..before red and purple eyes snapped open.
.
.
The Guardians and Rusherz opened their eyes from the blinding light seeing a large glowing brid flying towards them.
Ish: Whoa-
Pick-Ax blinked before turning to the Guardians.
Pick-Ax: Hey, put your NFLRs together and give us a hand.
They nodded and placed them on Pick-Ax's, raising their hands as a large Pick-Ax appeared. K-9, Fang and Blow-Torch rose their hands to the large weapon. The large pick-ax was soon engulfed in a reverberating flame as the raven flew over. They looked closely seeing the Legends glowing in the wings..and the one control the large Raven was-
Rusherz: S-Scavenger.
The Guardians starred in awe, before nodding.
Marty: Okay-that is the most awesomeness thing I have seen in my life.
Ish: One three we throw..ONE-TWO-
ALL: THREE!
Scavenger, Blow-Torch, Fang, K-9, and Pick Ax: SUPER SOAR (STEEL GRIP!) (SUPER SNARL!) (BROWNS GROWL!) (SUPER PICK)!
With that the Raven with the pick ax was launch with help from the Guardians and Legend. It flew fast and made contact with the large Blitzbot, destroying it to small bits. The Ravens Megacore went flying as Marty ran over.
Marty: I-I GOT IT! I think-*aims, positions and-caught it!* GOT IT!
The Guardians cheered as the Legends glow vanished as the twins ran over.
Freaky D: Marty! That was a amazing catch!
Deaky D: Great thinking there Martser!
Marty: Great thinking, we should be telling that to you guys!
Troy: That-was INSANE! How did you-what was-
Tua: We have so many questions.
The Legends chuckled blushing a bit.
Spads: It's-a long story.
Ash stepped up.
Ash: As much as we have questions-look.
The Large Raven landed in front of the team, before fading as Scavenger landed on the ground. Opening his eyes, he looked at the heroes as K-9 and Pick-Ax tears fell, Fang shoke and Blow-Torch removed his mask eyes wide.
Scavenger:-Hi guys. I-I heard you all.
K-9 ran over making the Rusher look at him.
K-9: My heart can't take two of my friends being in trouble in one week i swear if you ever do that-
He looked him over shaking, before he and the others hugged him in relief. Scavenger was taken a back a bit, before he slowly warmly smiled as he hugged back with his own tears.
Meanwhile...
Dropkick groaned in anger seeing the heroes win before he turned to the pondering Wildcard, who had said nothing even on the loss. The words now swarmed in his brain, forever burned within.
Scavenger voice: Tell me Wildcard; WHAT WOULD GETTING RIDE OF FOOTBALL DO?
Deep down, slowly bubbling in the future, Scavenger had a point-WHAT WOULD IT DO?
Candlestick stadium...
John Harbaugh: *Looking over* Scavenger are you sure your alright?! Nothing broken or-
Scavenger: I-I'm fine coach.
Scavenger was being looked over by John and his team, before the coach sighed in relief hugging the Raven tightly.
John Harbaugh: Scavenger, NEVER DO THAT AGAIN or i SWEAR-
Scavenger: *hugs back* I promise.
Jim went over nodding as the two broke the hug.
Jim Harbaugh: Glad to see you alright Scavs, you really scared us back there.
Scavenger: I'm very sorry about all that, But i am very grateful for all of you helping me-WHOA!
Pick-Ax and K-9 lifted him to the air smiling with Fang and Blow-Torch. The Guardians and Legend chuckled. The brothers smiled
Harbaugh brothers: Who's got it better than us?
All five Rusherz: NO-BODY!
Marty smiled behind his armor, with the twins giving him a sweet grin..cause behind that armor Marty was shedding tears of relief.
Marty: Yeah-you guys sure do.
Meanwhile, Canton Ohio...
Ricky was practicing on the field, mind still wondering on what was going on recently and the sky TURNING PURPLE WAS NOT HELPING. He sighed in frustration.
Ricky: Come on focus! You have to win this! You GOT to win this! I want to beat Ish fair and square-
?: Would be cautious on that mind set kiddo, that'll get attention to the wrong eyes.
Ricky heart jump once again as he looked to see-someone leaning in the shadows of the bleachers.
Being: Something tells me you been spooked enough today, so apologies.
Ricky: *Slowly walks over* And-how would you know?
Beings: Face it, this Wildcard guy is going to be after folks who mirror him weather it be major or minor. Train them to make an army or something cliche like that. Besides, I think you would want to be train by someone more leveled headed and not heated up.
Ricky was speechless right there, before he shoke his head.
Ricky: How do you even know this? And what could you do that no one could teach me?
He chuckled sliding over with smoothness that Ricky would admit he had seen in film.
Being: Kid, i can make you just as equal to Ish and his friends so much that your father would go crazy over. I can make it so that you can go beyond even your wildest dreams. You just need to help me gather some intel on this Wildcard, of course under my protection that is.
Ricky was stunned at the offer, it was an offer he believed NO ONE could refuse. But first-
Ricky: Who are you even?
The being brought down his sunglasses, reveling Amber red-orange eyes.
JUST CALL ME SPIKE, LIL BIRD.
