Brock Sampson's Fighting Murderflies Vs. The Syracuse Valley

The Murderflies are Sandworm #1-5, Jawa #1, & Marine #4, 7, & 14-73.

The Valley is Star Fox (w/ Darth Maul's double-bladed lightsaber) in Ratts Tyrelle's pod, (young) Anakin Skywalker (w/ a blue lightsaber) & Kister in Odee Mandrell's pod, Moritani #2-15, Kree Soldier #2-36, Giant Hammer Bros. #1-10, & Little Goomba #7-34.

Star Fox races thru the dunes in his pod, not at all looking forward to the match that he is about to lead his team into. He contacts Anakin over his com and tells him: “listen kid, I’ve encountered these Sandworms before. Now we are going to try a few attacks on them; but if it doesn’t work out then we are going to turn these pods around and get out of here. Is that clear“? “We heard you boss”. Kister says into the com for Anakin (he’s gotta do something while Anakin does most of the work). Star Fox radios the rest of his troops to tell them to stand at the ready for what is about to attack. Star Fox would do anything for The Syracuse Valley and his loyalty runs deep, but he doesn’t get why they even have to show up to a battle like this: “Of all the weeks to have to fight The Murderflies” McLeod thinks to himself “and they don’t even bother to give me a ship with any weapons on it”. The bullet catchers, I mean Little Goombas are The Valley’s front line with The Giant Hammer Bros. right behind them. The Kree Soldiers are next with The Moritani ready at the back, having convinced the coaching staff of Commander Dogstar and Mcgruff that they were “the elite force”. The 62 Marines actually summon the worms with a new and improved Ronco thumper as they are going to attempt to ride the worm like they were ridden by The Fremen back on their planet of origin: Arrakis. Jawa #1 runs away from his own team and the plan that has more potential for failure than the drafting of Wu-Tang in the first round. The Jawa succeeds in getting away from his own team, but in the process wanders over where the Valley are set up and gets conked in the head by a giant hammer from Giant Hammer Bros. #2. The Marines begin to see wormsign as the sand seems almost electrified, but they quickly find out 2 things. 1 being that it takes more than being addicted to spice to be able to ride a sandworm, and 2, that Ron Popeil’s thumper works a little to well, as it summoned not 1 worm but the other 4 as well. The marines might be well-trained fighters, but they simply do not have the know-how of a Fremen who was born being taught the skills of worm-riding among many other needed desert talents. The worms go crazy when they eject from the sands and see a desert landscape littered with trespassers. The worms come crashing down on top of the people around and onto themselves. Although there is no sandstorm raging at the time it seems as if there is from the amount of upturned sand at the rising of these massive beasts. None of the 62 marines are able to carry out the plan, as they all fall victim to their own sandworms. The Moritani Soldier’s personal Holtzman shields offer no protection from the mighty makers and the Giant Hammer Bros. seem anything but giant once Shai Halud shows himself in the open desert. If the Kree soldiers are stronger and more durable than humans as most are certain that they are, then it was not noticeable while they were being attacked and quickly engulfed by the Sandworms. One can guess what the Little Goombas accomplished against the worms: nothing. In the end, all of the soldiers are no where to be found and the only dead things visible to me as the watcher are the enormous dead carcasses of Sandworms #3 & 4 who did not end up on the right side of the territorial battle with the other worms. Anakin sees this and gets caught up in the moment. Star Fox orders the retreat but before he can even spit out the complete order he finds himself yelling: “ANAKIN NOOOO” when he sees Anakin ignite his lightsaber and race head on toward the giant worm. Fox’s initial reaction is to chase after the pod and rescue the 2 kids, but he sees that Anakin is way to far away for him to do anything about it. An old soldier like him knows the difference between nobility and foolishness, he just wishes he had enough time to teach it to Anakin. Star Fox guns his pod and retreats back to base like his team has had to do more times than he cares to admit.
BROCK SAMPSON’S FIGHTNG MURDERFLIES ARE VICTRIOUS!

The red lantern ring went to Guy Gardner. No additional cost, because he is already a lantern.
