Well the season has come upon us folks and that means It's time for Dusty to get right back to work right where he left off. Now It'll be starting the season off in the ISFL this time and being around some vets show Dusty he hasn't even reached his full potential as an Oline men. We left off with Dusty getting into his new crib and being reminded about a meeting with Warm Palms that were waiting on Dusty's name to be officially called up for the ISFL. The name was called and so his number was too.
**Beginning of Transcript**
5AM -Dusty wakes up in a sweat- -He's shivering wondering why It's so cold, but looks outside to be reminded where he Is- "Were not In Kansas Anymore." -Dusty chuckles to himself till he just decides to stretch on out and take things slow this morning as It's the first practice for him-
7AM -David wakes up late this morning as he was deep in his sleep, but walks into the living room- "Dusty you know what's nice about this new place? I don't wake up as soon as i hear you up anymore." Dusty looks at him, "Is that an insult to me David?" David smiles, "nah I'm calling the place a lot bigger than our apartment back home. which reminds me man, I got the official text from Warm Palms they would love to have a meeting as soon as possible." Dusty claps, "lets go baby, but let's just focus on my first practice first you know?"
David nods, "Right I forgot man, sorry just got used to Kansas City practices I guess. You feeling okay Dusty?" Dusty huffs, "I've got butterfly In my stomachs man, but I've worked for this and got to show these guys I'm worth every penny they're paying me to be here." David comes over to Dusty and grabs his shoulder, "Listen Dusty I've seen you do a lot of things that not even I expected you to do. you've left a mark on the University of Houston and Kansas City man. The Coyotes will not forget you by any means, I promise you they miss you. At the same time It's time to move forward and just be your best out there. Also remember these guys here in the ISFL are a lot stronger compared to DSFL. In the DSFL It's guys that are just making a check week by week or still trying to figure things out with their game." Dusty nods, "I know man ISFL is most definitely different, just looking at the facility of the Wraiths compared to the one In Kansas City. It's crazy that this one Is even bigger to be honest." David chuckles with him, "Absolutely man, just enjoy It and I hope practice goes good, but remember we do have a meeting so Film study will have to come another day." Dusty nods, "Trust me I'm more focused on just learning these new plays, but for today I'll skip film day till after the meeting."
-Dusty and David continue their morning, but not the usual morning routine as practice doesn't start till 12-
11AM -Dusty arrives early to practice to make sure his locker Is organized and didn't want to be late on the first day by any means- -Dusty hops out of the car and David drives off as Dusty walks into the facility- -Dusty walks into the locker room where there's no one there just yet- -Dusty hears someone coming up behind him and It's Daron Arnold the DE-
"Well, Well lookey here the new Rookie OL beat's me to the locker room first day of practice, now I'm going to have to teach you a lesson out there on the field. No one beats me very often, but I'll make sure you know that." Dusty caught off guard says, "Whoa, whoa I just didn't want to be late on the first day of practice." Daron says, "Well I'm sure you'll want to be here a little later next time, but I'll show you that on the field. for now nice to meet you kid, now get ready to get run over by me next time we meet face to face."
-Dusty Is worried about practice even more now, but he at least knows not to show up here first-
-the hour would pass by fast as More guys would pour into the locker room and get dressed including Dusty's good friends Jack and J.T- Dusty asks J.T, "What's up with Daron man." J.T eyes widen, "what do you mean? Dude's a beast on that DL." Dusty answers again, "I mean like why's he mean, I somehow beat him to the locker room this morning." J.T puts his head into his palms and gasps, "Well Dusty you're first practice Is going to be hell then man." Dusty hearing this asks, "wait why?" Jack chimes in, "Well Daron has earned the right to be the first guy into the locker room and the last one out over the past few seasons man. We as vets knew about It, but forgot to tell you, but didn't expect a rookie to show up this early really. So I would just watch yourself out there as I'm sure he's going to request to line up against you on the line." -Dusty gulps, but before he can talk more a whistle Is blown and every runs out to the practice field-
12PM -Coach Jarden has everyone lined up and says- "Get into your stretches and Rookies just watch the vets next to you and just join In when you get the hang of It." -Dusty watches then just follows what everyone else Is doing- -Whistle Is blown and everyone claps- "To you rookies every time I blow my whistle everyone claps. You got that?" -Whistle blows- -Everyone claps again and Dusty joins this time- "Good now, I just want to welcome everyone back to another great season of ISFL and a great welcome to our rookies who have been called up to the roster this season. It's a big step In everyone's careers to make It here, let's just hope It doesn't end soon like some do. Now without Further distractions let's go ahead and get to our Offensive sides and Defensive sides.
-The wraiths would go over plays with the new rookies and even learn a few new plays to implement into their game plans this season as Dusty would struggle to learn them at first, but eventually got them-
1PM -Coach blows his whistle and everyone claps- "Alright guys as you know I love to challenge you guys against each other. Let's get a offensive possession going and the offense only has 4 plays to score in the redzone. Let's line up boys!" -Dusty hustles over as everyone lines up on the sidelines to watch- -Dustin receives the play call and tells everyone the play as they break huddle, Dusty notices Daron right across from him- Daron says, "It's coming to you now Pancake boy." -The ball Is snapped as Daron gives Dusty hell from the line and gets past him, but not before a pass can be thrown- Dustin says to Dusty, "Hey man you better keep him off me, he will sack me." -Dusty nods-
-Next play Is called and Dusty lines up right across from Daron again, this Time Daron just uses his power moves to beat Dusty, before being blocked by the RB- Daron says to him after a pass Is complete to the 8 yard line, "Damn Dusty need backup to just stop me huh?" -Dusty shakes his head as he can't believe he's getting beat like this- Coach Jarden screams, "Do you need a break Dusty!?" Dusty answers back, "No sir!" "I hope not boy were only 2 plays through and Daron here Is giving you hell." -Dustin calls a play this time where J.T will swing over for a screen- -They line up and the ball is hiked as Dusty holds his block with Daron till eventually the ball is passed to the RB as there's a few blockers the RB is looking for a hole to go through- -Dusty sees Daron just running and the RB coming his way- -Dusty pancakes Daron as he runs into him- -Daron caught off guard gets in his face and says, "The hell kind of shit Is that man?" -Daron pushes him- Dusty laughs, "Looks like a Touchdown for my side by the look of things." Daron looks, "whatever man, you got lucky I wasn't paying attention." Dusty chuckles, "Pay attention more." J.T comes over and high fives Dusty, "Thank you for not pushing him back man, That's maturity right there and I know Daron respects you for not pushing back there. That hit seemed a bit cheap, but he didn't do you any favors on the plays before so just a little taste of his own medicine."
3PM -Practice ends on a good note and Dusty goes to the locker room- Daron walks up to Dusty after practice with everyone watching, "Dusty I want you to know I respect your heart kid, but watch that cheap shit man. Otherwise Respect to you kid." Dusty nods, "Appreciate It, but I'll watch that next time." -Locker room all calms down as they thought something was going to happen- Dusty gets dressed fast and tells J.T "Hey man, I'll watch some film later I have a sponsorship meeting that I have to attend." J.T puts his hand up, "No worries kid, but at least watch some tonight." Dusty nods, "You know I will, It's hard not to." Jack also says jokingly, "And watch that cheap shit!" -All of them chuckle before Dusty exits the locker room-
4PM -Dusty and David arrive at a little coffee shop to meet up with the representative of the company as they shake hands- "Well Dusty I have the guys here on a call, but we are most definitely ready to sign you as a representative of Us. We only ask how many years were you wanting to sign with us." David answers, "Well what do you guys think?" The Representative shrugs, "Well we were thinking 2 years as It'd give us a good test run of things and see If our sales go up or stay the same." David nods, "sounds good to us really." Representative answers back, "Awesome man just get you to sign things here and just go ahead send some pictures our way and we'll get things going on the Warm Palms." Dusty asks, "No photoshoot?" The guy answers, "It's not really needed for just some warm palms and we should get some pictures of you from the preseason."
**End of Transcript**
Preseason would go well for the Wraiths as they'd finish 3-1, but Dusty would struggle pancaking defenders, but still have a great showing for himself and they would send pictures needed for the sponsor after the preseason. Then they would begin their Regular season against the Sarasota Sailfish in which they would lose 31-18 making them start their season off 0-1, but as they would play their next game something would click for them against the Colorado Yetis as they were down, but not before they came back and tied the game 20-20 before winning in OT 23-20. making them 1-1. Then for their double header they took care of business beating Berlin 30-10 in a nice showing for themselves and beating the Chicago Butchers In a close game 27-24 giving them a current record of 3-1. Dusty struggles pancakes wise, but many expect him to get better over time and know It's going to take some adjustment to get used to this competition, but obviously the Wraiths figured he was ready for the big leagues for a reason. The Wraiths are continuing their great level of play and Adding Dusty Into It makes It only better He Is struggling to get pancakes as he only has 17 currently, but those sacks allowed are still only at 1 Which Is a great thing to see for a rookie OL. Let's see how Dusty does the rest of the season with the wraiths!
