Mik grinned as Jo called the play, "If you want a second down then I'm not sure me running to the outside is the option" he laughed, "I like getting first downs. I'm good to go though, let's hit them hard and fast, eh, and show that these Dragon's breathe fire!"

Then he looked at the faces around him, one or two he was still unsure of. LaRoi was one he didn't like, but they could do with more people like Bronk. He was enjoying his first taste of life with NFL players, he could really get used to this.

   With  Jo's  snap of the ball, she  flicked a pitched to Mik in his  slot,  He turned Up  Adam's Side, as Adam  Let the DB Go and  Nailed the ROLB with his  pads into his Hipe..The rookie  DB  Missed the  tackle  as he was backpeddling to try to  get away from  Adam's  Block, Clark Hit  Mik at the D's 44...2nd  and 1

 The  coaches  didn't  seem to worried  about plays  or calls...they seemed to  be watching people,

   Jo waved everyone up to the line, and  signaled  for  read routes, Adam Drove the DB  Off  and then cut into the Middle, Jo's  pass left her hand  his  hands  came up, His  eyes never left the ball as he reached  a bit  high to get it, Marques  Payne it him the same time the ball did...The Clack of pads, and the  Thud oon the  Turf had the  fans  Roar and Moan  at the same Time...The full wieght of th Linebacker driving the wideout into the turf,  As he  Got Up he Looked at  Adam who smiled  and handed him ball Nice hit!..

  Marques  chuckles  and shook his head with a smile as  a Time out  was called  because  La Roi got  tangled in the  firstdown Chains.

  Stalls  grinned  at Bronk In the Huddle,You'er  gonna  tell me that didn't hurt...

   Bronk  grinned,of  course it hurt..hurt like hell...it  always does...

   Ivan caught  a  quick screen behide  stalls and Gerhart..It  was now  2nd  and 4 at the D's 26...

    Sims   made them Huddle, Took Ivan out  of the  H-back...had  Mik  move to H-back  and Put  La Roi in the slot, gerhart  at the  Right wideout...Alright  Black?..lets  see what you can do..field's getting shorter... and  Sims  stepped back out  of the huddlle to watch  and Listened , Ivan standing next to him

Aaron looks on with dismay people missing blocks and half steeping no sence of pride or team sprit or what ever you want to call it half ass is what he calls it.Fead up with it he looks at coach Lewis the D-cordenater "Put me in Coach and teach the O the importance of blocking,What do ya say let's have some fun?"

Jo thinks then looks at the field. If it worked it could get them the TD but it was risky possibly. It was only so far to then end zone. She looks at her wideouts then at Gerhart."Ger this is coming your way. Whatever you do don't stop till you reach the end zone cause that's where the ball is headed. La Roi....you just stay out of the way. But pay attention cause if they read this I'll need another option."

Jo takes them out of the huddle then looks at Sims for approval. It was risky but in short time it was worth it. She looks at the defense then. Some may be trouble if not careful she would have to watch out for that. She looks again at the defense then Desul."Coach...why ain't he out here? That's the man I need to block for me."

Mik looked at Jo, "So where you want me? Do I block, fake the run or be a short pass option behind the line?"

He looked at the defensive line and then at Desul, "I think he's gonna be on that side of the line mores the pity, perhaps I should stay and protect if he comes in." he gave a grin.

James nodded solemnly.  Long routes were not his forte, and he knew it.  He didn't have the speed to burn a defender, and he couldn't fake at the last second if the ball was already in the air.  Still, he knew he couldn't turn it down.  Maybe he could plan a fake.  "I'll slant in at the five, should be midfield by the end zone."

 After giting the nodd from Coach Lewis Aaron runs on the field his first play as a Jaguar the fans go nuts thay were not expecting him to be in so quick.In the huddle he says"Alright now we separate the men from the boys the play is Cover 2 man under press Payne watch for the short slant or middle draw we have a short QB here,Tibbs The Shad-dooow stick Gerhart I'm gonna put some pressure on the little lady you know pressure will make a pipe bust lets put this Babe to bed."

Finally deciede to come  back? Figured you were on Your  way to Dallas  or the 49ers  Worth Looked at Desul and shook his head,

  Clark  and Worth  dropped back, Clark Shading  Adam's  side of the  filed, Worth taking a few steps up on Gerhart's  side.

  Adam left the Huddle,..dunno La Roi...awfully scary in that slot..think you can handle it?..he had the dark grin on his face..His old coach called it the assassin's  grin. ...With No outright  call from the QB, Adam  would run the read routes, Maybe  see if he can get the saftey's attention away from the old guy.

  JO  looked over the  field as she called the set, At the snap the teams  moved together..Clacks of the pads as the D-line  shot forward..Stalls cut off his Read  and helped  to Chip on Desul, between he and the Tackle, they were slowling him up...

   Adam Did  not  have to read  the coverage too hard, Clark moved  over top  the rookie  DB tried to  shade the outside,....But...Bronk knew   La Roi  would not  go into the Middle ...La Roi  Broke out, Adam broke in..Clark froze as La Roi turned up the sideline with the Db turning and  running.. The Right backer  was in the  Flat  and Marques  had stepped Up, Worth turned to Run with Gerhart as he cut to the Middle, Tibbs  Running alongside....Jo had to  make the play  as the  other outside backer came, Just outside Where Stalls  was  chipping on Desul

  Sims  watched  it  all from the back Field, Mik had  stayed home...he watched to see what he would do...La Roi and  Adam run  an almost perfect  Cross...Gerhart  was drawing alot of attention...But   the line  was breaking down.


  Lewis  shook his  head as Desul took the field...better to see what he can do here...and deciede if they were letting him stay or  not.

 As Stalls dubble teams him with the tackle The Diesel uses the ripspin[Were you grasp the Tackle's inside arm pushing the elbow in, plant your cleets in the turf and pivot off your inside leg and push forward with your elbow forcing the tackleinto the path of the out side blocker] and picks Stalls with the tackle seting him up on a inside rush now and with the Outside Backer coming the half back Mikhail has to deside who to block as Aaron comes screaming in arms raised eyes fixed on his target.

Mik had stayed back to protect and saw at once it was the right option, but the defence still had the numbers to overwhelm Jo as 'Diesel' tore a hole in the line. He made sure that he covered the angles of both runs to Jo but he knew he couldn't stop both players.

Making the decision he shouted to Jo, "NOW, NOW, NOW!" and set to block Diesel as he looked the most likely to get to Jo in time - plus he'd probably hit harder. Mik waited for him to come closer and at the last second twisted his weight around the ball of his left foot. As Diesel hit him Mik powered through and pushed him a yard upfield trying to put him in the way of the other blitzing back.

Throw Jo, throw it, he thought, I can't hold this guy back much longer! Diesel was aptly named with his muscular physique and he had hit Mik at full speed too. Mik started to concede ground and could feel his grip slipping so he tried to make sure Diesel came down with him when he fell, twisting his body. I've given her what time I could, he thought as he fell - the sunlight dazzling his vision, hope she got it off in time.

"Dammit!"  This was asking for an interception.  Angry at giving up the chance for a reception, James waved off the throw, hoping Jo noticed.

A massive shadow temporarily blocked the entrance to the locker room tunnel.  Lumbering onto the field strode Kane Mareko, all 360 pounds of him.  The number 99 on his jersey was stretched skin tight over his enormous upper body, just barely containing his sloping belly.  The man-mountain made his way over to the sideline, helmet in hand and fully dressed for the scrimage.  A protective ankle brace was on his left ankle and a knee brace added extra support on his right knee.  Standing near the defensive coordinator, who was practically swallowed up by his shadow, Kane studied the action on the field.  When he saw the small female QB scampering in the backfield, a smile split his lips.  He nodded to himself, as if agreeing with a voice only he could hear, his long black hair done up in a ponytail bobbing behind him.

  The  DC looked at the large  fellow,It  would,  be nice if you folks started  coming in on time...You get to watch for a bit..I am Pulling Desul out  after this play as  well..You guys  haven't earned your  way into the scrimmage yet...I hope you fellows  are happy with the New Dragon's  contracts as well...Going to be alot  differant than you are used to....

Keeping one eye on the action on the field, Alexia led the girls on her side of the field in some basic cheers as she had dispatched Nika and Shira to the other side of the field to lead the cheerleaders gathered there.  The women's athletic bodies flexed and writhed, inflaming the imagination of many a man in the stands.  Alexia knew that the squad would look even sexier once dressed in their Dragonette uniforms instead of the mis-matched workout clothes they now donned.

  scattered through the  stands , on both sides, where a few  gilrs , women, men  and boys  who had  some of the Dragonette Pictures  handed out  at the  Amota Enterprises MAll. The waved them at the girls  with Sharpies in thier hands  trying to get  more autographs.

  The Scoreboard crew was having the time of thier lives...the Board  wasn't  quite  as  big as the Board in Dallas..But it was where everyone  could see it..the animation on it was Anime Quailty, designed so the operators  could have differant displays, with out the "canned" displays  at most  stadiums.

  The crowd  laughed and Pointed at the screens  from time to time...One animation  showed an egg...it cracked open  and a small dragon , wearing  a football helmet came out...the  another..then another..then another..and the the words " WELOCME HOME DRAGONS!"  ran across the bottom of the screen.

  Next it showed a small figure whose helmet was as big  as his body..the  small figure  caught  a football  and  its little feet moves  fast  around  some Bigger  players and scored"..Toughtdown ADAm.." it  read

 Shortly there after..it  showed a very feminie form of  a football Player Kicking  another Player over the stadium wall,"..NICE KICK...KAT.."

 In between there  would be replays  of the players  making plays, or shots of the Draghonettes...and onece in a while  a fan group.

Kat chuckled as she stood on the sidelines watching the scoreboard replays. On the field, Joanna was scrambling as the play unfolded. Whoever this Diesel guy was, he had overpowered Mik after a brief struggle and was getting ready to party in the backfield.

Not so good. Kat was praying Joanna got the ball out in time. She glanced down at her warm-up equipment, a football teed up to be kicked into a net, but she ignored it for now as her eyes were mainly on the play going down on the field.

It wasn't lost on her the gentlemen in the stands hooting and hollering, some as much for the cheerleaders as for the team. For a scrimmage, this felt like a game. It felt good. Kat grinned over at Alexia and the cheerleaders before snapping back to the field...

 Jo  looked over the filed, the  protection breaking down, Her first thopught was to let it go..But Gerhart had  altered the  route she had wanted... Stalls broke off his  route  to block, and  Mik  had  Just Flashed in frot of her to  Hit  the DE as he  slipped between the double  team...The LInebacker was picked up  latye by Stalls   as he pivoted around......

  Black  Looked at Adam who was open  for  about 6...But La Roi  was going up the sidelines..Clark , grew  roots as he didn't know  which of the recievers to  clep on...She..against her better  Judgement let fly  at La Roi.

  Bronk's  Hands were  Up  waiting to grab the  past,  the  ball whistled over his  head , staright to LA Roi....The TAll recievers  mouth  was open like  a fish  as his hands reached to grab the  ball..It hit his hands...bounced onto his facemask and Out  in front of him...Clark  had rushed  towards  La Roi after the Throw....The Tall man saw the  charging saftey  and short armed the rebound  Catch....Clark..however..snagged the tumbling  Ball and began to return it, Only to be met with a sloid  tackle  fromm Bronk...

  DAMMIT! yelled  Sims,STEELE!

  Adam  Helped Up Clark who hand a painful grin on his  face,good heads up...make sure you do that to the bad guys!

  When Adam Heard Sims  call for  Steele he  jogged over to  the Coach,Um...Coach...don't  jerk her yet...

  Sims  was Fuming,that's  a turnover Bronk! that ended her series...

  He looked around for  support then back  at  SimsControlled scrimmage..right? She hjas 5  more plays  coming...I mean...cripes  coach..it  was La Roi's  fault..the jerk  screwed up a gimme catch..then wussed out on the rebound...

  Sims  Looked at Nevers who was  staring DAggers  at La Roi..who was trying to stand  behind the Center and left tackle..Nevers  caught Sims  gaze  and nodded,boy's  right..only fair  to her and the Defense..we scored alot a scrimmage points  with Steel in..they  should have a shot at recouping some of them...Not her fault La Roi is gutless...

  Coach  Looked at Bronk and Nodded,Alright  Bronk..these next 5  plays are on you...if there is a tunrover in those  five plays , You and the offense that is on the filed owe  me 5 laps  around the outside lane of the track.

  Bronk  grinned as the ref  set the ball at the 20, going the other  way now as he reached the Huddle he said to Jo,You got  5  plays to score...doesn't have to be a Touchdown..we got Kat on the sideline  looking for work...oh...if there is a turn over..we all have to run 5  laps on the outside lane of the track..."

  He grinned at everyone, The Left Tackle Punched La Roi in the shoulder,Get yourself  some Guts, board  hands...  And  they Turned to Jo  for the next call............

  Lewis Yells Desul's Name  and the DE who was out there before trottd onto the Field,Alright , Desul...You and  Kane here get to watch some..most of these folks  were here  for  the begining of  Minicamp...you want to play..you have to earn it...now then...after this series is over...the scecond teams  will be in..That's  when you and  Knae  will go in...go ...loosen up..you  get hurt..I'll cut you on the spot...

Mik grinned in the huddle, "Well I reckon we hit them quick eh, perhaps a short pass to Gerhart over the top to grab a first down and then no huddle just launch one to the endzone for Adam to collect. I'm ready to fake the run and occupy some backs - should give you room eh?" he said to Adam.

"We have five plays so let's do it in less and make sure that there is only a chance of incomplete and not interceptions. We can use the remainder if it doesn't work eh?" He said looking around the huddle. When his eyes fell on La Roi he spoke again quickly "And I don't know what your problem is but out here we give our best or we go home. I got no time for anyone who isn't giving a hundred percent - so get in the game eh, or you might find yourself taken out of it, hard."

 As Desul runs to the side line he looks at Sims smiles and says "That Half Back has Hart and good blocking skills you got a good one there" he runs off right by Sims "Jo's got Hart to I have seen Pro Bolw quaterbacks go doe eyed seeing me come in on an inside  she stood in the pocket and dlivered Good D  caused the pick.Like I alwase say presure will make a pipe bust "  Aaron looks at the mammoth that came to the side line a he was a good sign if he was in the last play would have been a sack it still should have been had the HB not stayed in to block he saved Jo from a sack being Minicamp he would not of full on hit her more of a hard bear hug but she would know it was a sack.Not waiting for a reply or response from Coach Sims he has more things to worry about he runs over to the DL side and welcoms the other new guy.Diesel sticks his hand out "Aaron Desul teammates call me Diesel"

At the defensive coach's comments, Kane didn't say anything, a frown briefly appearing on his face.  He had worked under a different defensive coordinator last year in his rookie season with the former Jags.  Now, brought back under a reworked contract despite his lawyer's best efforts, Kane wasn't exactly pleased with the situation.  Plus the fact that a family emergency had made him miss the first days of training camp didn't improve his mood any.  Well, once this old man let him on the field, he would show him why he was the best thing this team and defense had going for it right now.  Whether he stuck with the Dragons or managed to get traded to another team that would pay him what he deserved didn't matter to Kane.  The only thing that did was getting playing time and getting paid.

Kane looked up at the taller man.  He seemed to remember seeing this guy on another team last year and had been impressed by the man's speed for someone his size.  Kane took the man's hand in his larger one, giving his arm a firm pump.

"Nice to meet you, Diesel.  Name's Kane."

Kane pointed the offense on the field with his chin.

"How's the offensive line holding up?"

 "Nice to meet you Kane. Thay'll do alright alittle lazy but Coach Sims will wip them into shape with his blocking scheme that new HB is fearless and blocks well that will help out our QB in protection.But as a unit they'll be good" Aaron lets his attention drift to the field to watch the next play a little disturbed that coach Lewis pulled him after one play and thinks to his-self That Old Geeser wants to show every one that he is in charge,Well fine let him have his power trip I'll show him on the field that I'm still  the best pass rusher in the leage  Diesel turns back to Kane "It's good to see that thay drafted you I saw some clips of you at U.S.C. you should have been a first rounder.If you'ld like we can train together I can show you some tricks of the trade  take you under my wing so to speek "    Desul looks down at Kane with a questionable glance and a smile."You don't have to answer me now just chew on it for a while"Aaron then turns his attention back to the game

    Jo  Looked  around, watched the Pic, then the  tackle. She gave Mik  a stern smile,Thanks  for  keeping him off me... he  heart sank a bit when she heard Sims yell for Steele, But  saw Bronk Jog over and plead  thier case...after  Bronk came  back to the Huddle and explained  what was at stake..she nodded

  Alright..alright...Bronk...stalls ..in the slots....La Roi...Gerhart  at the wides..Mik at the H....Bronk  Cross the middle if its  there..stalls  take it to the Out..La roi..take  it up the field...Gerhart  Cut Inside  Under Bronk  and Stalls... every one nodded  Bronk leaned  a bit to Gerhart,  The Corner should  wait on Stalls.. I will make sure to  Rub off On Payne...Thier  right side backker  should be  waiting for you...if he blitzes..no one  will be there....La Roi will draw Clark and the  Rookie up the field...

  they Left the Huddle, Bronk as  Slot back on the O's  left...the  outside  backer was creeping, Bronk Called out the hot  read..or what the defense thought would be the hot  read..Jo  called the snap...Once more the Lines  came together..a little  more power in the hits...The  Backer swimmed past  Bronk's "missed"  block.. He  Cut  across and  Noted Tibbs  Drew up . waiting  for a pic on Stalls...Payne Dropped intom Covverage  and Gave  Bronk a whack on the  way past, and Turned to Run with Him,....Worth Read. skinny post  and was waiting on Bronk...Gerhart came under them  all. Jo's  pass lead him just enough to  be able to turn Up behind the Back who was chasing La Roi..

  Mik  had leveled the Backer who came  from Bronk's  side...the DE who took Desul's  place  Gave  Jo a extra push as he reached her late..and sent her rolling, though she  came up to  see the play...

 Bronk, Pivoted into  Payne and the two hit the ground, causing the  leftside backer to get tangled up as well...Bronk Looked up field  from Under the defenders

 Gerhart was already  at the  33..and Calrk was yelling  and Pointing to him, the rookie  was trying to Pivot  around..La Roi  kept  running..........

Well I'll be damned.  Not only am I getting another attempt, but this one is my kind of route.  Maybe that interception calmed her down.  He ran the route as directed, picking up the pass and taking a couple of steps to get away from La Roi's defender, surprised that he hadn't noticed what was going on.  Turning, he began working his path up the field, holding the ball securely.

 The  Rookie DB, Just missed  Bringing  Gerhart down...Clark, once again  made a solid  tackle..this  scriammge  was making him look good...Ball was now on the O's 43...4 plays  left

  The  rushed  back to the  BAll..all But La Roi who was walking  back after his sprint  down Field

  Coach Nevers went  bananas  again,Dammit ! La Roi! RUN!!!...you are paid to Run..dammit  run back!

  La  Roi Hustled  back  a bit  and Lined up outside again, Bronk whacked Gerharts  Pads on the way back,way to go..way to Go... he nodded to  Jo  as he took his  place in the  Slot...

 Lewis was shouting  at the D...he signaled into  Payne  and Worth who began to  bark out signals  as Jo  set up, Bronk  Turned  and said,Zone..Zone...

  Jo  Nodded, but  didn't  say a Thing...this  is what she needed to learn about these guys...and Underfire was a good  way to find out...She snapped the Ball.

  In the short  while these folks were together, The O LIne  began to move  and fireout..Sims   and Amota  spent alot of time Looking  for  guys  who..LIKED..to pass block..they hit  and Passed along defenders..the Zone  giving them a chance to set up a pocket.. Mik, didn't  see anyone so he took the left  flat..The Rightside  backer hustling  to try to catch him.. LA Roi Took off deep..never even bothered to look back...Bronk  Grinned..The backer  moving on Mik, the Corner on Laroi..Clark  Dropping  and reading... he Moved  down field  and curled in a nice opening at about 12 yards.....Stalls Curled up  Between Payne  and The outside backer..Worth  was over Top...Tibbs backpeddled  and stopped as Gerhart Curled out about 10  yards to the  side line......... Jo Noted all this  as the  shotgun snap  hit her hands, and she set her feet to throw......
