Return Of The Last Dragon

Return Of The Last Dragon: Earth Ruler

Back at the wreckage that was once the Fort Worth Texas black site facility, five glows billow into the dawn, and then a sixth. The Greeners are hopped up on glow energy rage. They look over at Archie, who looks back at them with a forlorn look in his face. I........I'm sorry for all they did,...I'm sorry for your losses! He glows up his reverberating glow, and slowly floats away into the morning sky.

-Brooke, Gunner, Dre, Shuq and Pique begin the long journey back up north.

This is getting way out of hand!,..says Dre.  What do we do about this?  Do we go into hiding?  Can we go into hiding?...I mean according to the creepy black-ops lady we're all gonna die an apocalyptic death anyway.  What do we do man!?,...This is nuts!!  Well first off, we just gotta calm down!,..replies Brooke.  Look who decided to join us in the land of sanity!,..taunts Gunner.  Remind us how we ended up going over the side of a bridge again..GUN-NER!!,..replies Brooke. !!STOP IT!,..JUST STOP FIGHTING!,..shouts Shuq...YOU'RE ABOUT TO GET RUN OVER BY A CAR!  As the two stop arguing, they all notice a car slowing up to them on the highway.   You guys ok!?,..says a voice from inside the car.  You all must not be from around here!....I'm sure you've noticed it can get pretty hot, pretty fast!  Wanna lift!?  The Greeners all look at each other, but say nothing!  C'mon!,..says the guy in the car.  You don't want to be out here in the hundred plus degree weather!  They begin to get in when Pique stops,...  Wait!,...why are you helping us?  Kinda messed up thing to leave young folks such as yourselves out here in this heat!... besides I'm a priest!...it's pretty much what I do!  They all pile in the sedan. So where you guys heading anyway?  Maybe I can drop you somewhere?  New York!,..says Dre sarcastically.  !!WHOA!...da big apple huh?  Is that where you all are from?  Yes!,..replies Brooke.  Well I can't take you to the Empire state, but I can get you to a nice hotel.  How's that sound?  Oh we don't wanna impose!,..says Brooke.  Nonsense!,...I'm heading out to Florida myself.. to a big convention, and the big boys are fitting the bill....It's all FREE!  What kind of convention?,..asks Dre.  Why a Catholic convention my young man!  ..And what did you say your name was?   Oh I'm sorry, I'm Father Dougherty, but my friends call me Dallas!  Dallas huh?,...replies Dre with a skeptic look.  Ah Father, do you happen to have a cell phone?,..asks Brooke.  Uh no!,..but I'm sure there will proper accomodations at the hotel!  They arrive at the hotel.  It's one of the more expensive ones in a downtown city.  You all go wait in the lobby, while I take care of the valet parking.  As they pile out of the car in front of the swanky hotel, a beeping sound comes from the front seat console. Father Dallas opens it quickly to stop the sound.  Everyone else has exited, but Shuq looks back upon hearing the beeps, and gets a glance at a cell phone in the compartment.  Dallas hits the panic button on the car key fob.  The car makes loud noises, but Dallas quickly stops it.  Shuq is looking back at him.  That's when he notices the rod Shuq is carrying on her back.  It's Kolanji's Spear.  Wow!..That's quite the accessary you've got there young lady!,..says Dallas hoping she didn't notice the phone.  Shuq says nothing, but goes on, and catches up to everyone else in the lobby.  

In the Lobby Dre gathers everyone.  That guy is no priest!  At this point, I don't care who he is! barks Gunner.. I want a shower, some food, and decent sleep!,..And not in any particaular order!  I'm with you Dre!,..says Brooke,.Buuuuuuut, I'm also with Gunner!  I need a shower!!,....but first I gotta make a call!  You guys watch each other!..Look!,.. We all know what we did at that....place!... not too long ago!  What we're capable of!  The others look down and away.  What was that anyway?,..asks Pique.  It was the most powerful I had ever felt, and I didn't even feel like I was in control...I..  Don't worry about that right now!,..chimes in Brooke.  We're gonna  be alright for now!  Let me do this,..Dre...let us have this..we need it, so.....behave!!  Brooke goes to the lobby front desk to make phone calls.  Dallas comes in.  Well that's all taken care of.  I'll get you all set up, and we'll meet back here in say two hours!  I've aten here plenty of times!  The food is amazing!!    They all just look at him.  You can trust me!....it's all on the church's dime...God's will, God's bill I always say! Shuq is about to say something, when the concierge steps up with room keys.  One for the Ladies!, and one for the Gents!  ..Mr. Daugherty has sep up everything for you all.  Your clothing will be up to your rooms as soon as they arrive!  If you need anything at all just ring us up! Thanks madame!,...Five-Star service as always! retorts Dallas.  See you all in two hours!
