Rock debaury Coffee shop
Before the too many events in their lives, They're still human who cares for each other. A fateful meeting of the one who's afraid and the one who believe. Their resolution and they're goals makes them who they are now.
After passing out...
*throwback*
Lynco remembers his past, his first meeting with Jeremy.
Inside the Coffee shop the young Lynco enjoys his sweet mocachino sundae, while eating a piece of Coffee cake. The happy and cheerful Lynco eats his cake and he's so happy about the sweet cake.
"Madam? You're cake is the best!" Lynco cheerfully praised the owner.
"Oh Really? I thought Merlin is the reason that you're here everyday." She teased him.
"No, Mam! I don't like your son! Were barely talking to each other! " Lynco quickly denied.
They suddenly got quiet and they laughed together. While Lynco and the owner are having fun sharing stories, Lynco noticed a boy outside the shop, weak, frail and he look very sad. Lynco leaves the shop and he goes to the boy and he talked to him.
"Kid? You lost?" Lynco asked.
"No." He mumbled.
"What're you doing out here? Alone? " Lynco curiously asked.
" I'm just dissapointed..."
"On what?"
The boy wears a black jacket and he's covering his face with the hood.
"Myself... " The boy said and Lynco was shocked about what he heard.
"Why?" Lynco asks again.
" I can't be like the heroes that i idolize on Tv."
The boy explained.
" Thats a simple problem but the damage is big ." Lynco said and he smiled.
He removed the boy's hood and he drag the boy inside the coffee shop.
"Mam? Extra coffee cake and another Mocachino Sundae." Lynco ordered.
The boy was still quiet but Lynco pat his head. "Cheer up! Enjoy!" Lynco smiled.
After the boy ate, Lynco gets a picture on his pocket, a photo of a running back that he just got free on a bubble gum wrapper.
"See this? Someday I'm gonna be fast like the wind." Lynco smiled.
"Huh? Why?" The boy asked.
"You wanted a hero, right? So I'm gonna be one for you. " Lynco explained.
"Why would you go that far just for a stranger like me?" The boy asks again.
"I wanted to be the hero that everyone needs, in times of trouble." Lynco explained.
"You'll really do that?! " The boy asks with excitement.
"Yeah, Why not!" Lynco agreed.
"Well! I'm gonna go home now, I'll wait for the next time we meet, mr. Soon to be hero." The boy said with excitement and he quickly leaves the shop. The owner collects their plates and cups, he gave Lynco a sugar ball.
"Thanks."
"I like what you said to that kid." The owner smiled.
" He's no kid, He looks the same age as me. He maybe childish."
" All of us reach that age." She chuckled. "Are you serious about being a running back?" She asked Lynco.
"I'll try it. If i do good then I'm in. Maybe I'll become the hero that kid wanted to." Lynco explained.
"Whatever you choose, Remember that I'm here for you, Merlin, my husband Lan and your grandma. " She said.

Lynco Stest.
Lynco woke up in a middle of a dark room strap in a stretcher bed. Lynco tries to get away but the strap is too hard. Suddenly a light has opened above him, So he's eyes get flashed but when he open his eyes he saw a guy wearing a doctors white coat and a mask to cover his face. Also a glasses like Harry potter wears, the guy scratch his head and he get a syringe out of his coats pocket.
" This might hurt a lot." He said.
"Who the hell are you? What are you doing to me?" Lynco asked while trying to get away.
"It's useless, were not hurting you for nothing. " He replied.
"What? The heck are you talking about?! "
"It's all about evolution baby!" The guy said with an excited tone on his voice.
"We wanted to change you, to test you! For the greater good! " The guy said with an exclaiming voice.
"Why the heck do you think that this is for the greater good?!" Lynco said with an angry look on his face.
"Could you please shut up!!!" The guy shouted and he quickly inject the syringe to Lynco and he instantly lose consciousness.
"Good... good... good..." The guy mumbled and he slowly patt Lynco's head. "The Mad lion is going to be the Temper Liger." The guy said while he keeps patting Lynco's head.
"Sir? Can i ask? What is a Liger? " A guy with a chaufferone suit suddenly appeared behind him.
"Nyle... Dont you sneak up on me!!!"the guy shouted because of the shocked.
" I'm terribly sorry sir." Nyle quickly apologizes.
"Whatever. do you wanna know what is a Liger?" The guy with the white coat said.
"Yes, Dr. Skoll." Nyle said.
"Liger is a combination of a pride of a lion and a courage of the tiger. It really is just a myth and a theory but today... It will happen!!" Dr. Skoll explained and Nyle check his cellphone and he gets a message, he let Dr. Skoll see the message. Dr. Skoll was happy when he saw the message and he clapped his hands twice.
"Ta! Ta! Everybody! Let's do this damn history! Shall we?" He said.
Other lights had opened and its revealed that the room Lynco was on, is an operating room. With too many equipments and too many people like him (Evo's) restrained on beds. Dr. Skoll grabbed a scalpel and he cleans it with a piece of cloth.
"Baby... It's Game Time."
