Charles Barkley's Turrible Decisions Vs. TEAM

.Charles Barkley's Turrible Decisions are Tom Bombadill, Smaug, Balrog #1-3, and Robo-Barkley.

TEAM is Capt. N w/ Duke, Kid Icarus (Pit), Simon Bellmont, Mega Man, Rush, The Princess of Video Games, and Game Boy, The Ice Bros., Grizzled Vietnam Veteran: Old Man Parks, and Death Bringer.


“I love the smell of mithril in the morning” Retired Sgt. Parks says to his teammate Death Bringer who is holding his axe menacingly as TEAM prepares for battle. Capt. N heads over to his TEAMmates to join the conversation as well. Capt. N has plenty of leadership experience under his belt from years of leading his video game squad against Mother Brain, as does Death Bringer after running a small army to take over a kingdom; but it is the grizzled combat veteran Dave that they turn to for today's game plan.

“What's the plan boss”?? Asks Death Bringer.

“Not sure yet Kid, still waiting to see what kind of Turrible Decision we're dealing with”. Replies the white bearded Parks.

“BRACE YOURSELVES SOLDIERS”!! Parks yells as he spots a not so groovy duo approaching the ledge the TEAMmates have perched themselves on. As TEAM takes up defensive positions they are attacked by air. Smaug, with Robo-Barkley riding on top of him are quickly coming at them. Robo-Barkley pets the scales of Smaug with his Cybernetic hand and assures himself more than anybody else. Robo-Barkley mutters: “All we need to do is keep them busy for a while. Bombadill swore that once he conjured up the deep demons of this place than this match will be over. SO LET'S DO THIS THING SMAUG”!!

Robo-Barkley leaps off of Smaug's back and screams: “NO FREE BASKETS” as he blasts both the Ice Bros. with his Sneaker lasers.

Smaug swoops down and swallows Duke in one yummy mouthful, but finds Rush to be not quite as tasty after he does the same to him. Robo-Barkley throws down a wicked elbow to the screen of Game Boy which wrecks the animated console quick. Simon Belmont attempts to avenge his friend but Barkley reminds him that: “That is one Turrible Decision” Barkley jumps about thirty feet into the air and comes down hard on Simon's head M. Bison style, cracking his neck. Old Man Parks then sneaks up behind Robo-Barkley with some an amazing stealth for an older fellow. As the man who created Robo-Barkley way back in his youth, he knows exactly where to hit the Cyborg Baller to trigger the self-destruct. Mega Man analyzes the weaknesses of Smaug and comes to the conclusion that teamwork makes the dream work, but not before the dragon scorches Princess Lana. Kid Icarus and Capt. N place perfectly aimed shots into the damaged scale area on Smaug knocking him to the ground, while Death Bringer finishes off the mighty dragon with a powerful blow to his kneck with the Golden Axe.

Meanwhile in the depths of the Moria Mines Tom Bombadill is prancing around merrily, whistfully flinging magic and singing freshly composed songs. Tom takes a swig of wine and sings:

“Oh Tom Bombadil, Tom Bombadillo,
Over the rocks and smelly Dwarf socks
And in need of padded brillo

Oh Tom Bombadil, Tom Bombadillo
I'll undo the latchers and eat some crackers
And free these Mother-Scratchers”

Mere moments after one of Middle earth's most powerful beings utters these words, three large Balrogs are unearthed from the depths of Moria. Ol' Tom grabs his wine pouch and lights a pipe before he grabs a good seat for the fight that is about to happen.

Old Man Parks leads the remainder of his team, which consists of Death Bringer, Capt. N, Mega Man, and Kid Icarus. They focus their attacks on the massive Balrog in the middle (#2). Death Bringer summons all the magic he can muster, whilst swinging his mighty axe into the chest of the ancient creature of the Second Age, while Parks, N, Mega Man, and Pit lay down a suppressing fire. Death Bringer and Balrog #2 topple off the ledge, but before the remaing four TEAMmates can regroup for their next attack, they are destroyed by the two massive Balrog Whips that come down upon them.

Sneaker lasers, hell yeah! That's the kind of quality writing I come here for.

Nice squad TEAM, wasn't expecting to see Universe Destroyer Old Man Parks in the pre-season!

I agree Dave. The mental picture of Charles Barkley riding Smaug was perfect.

Nice work Josh.
