No Rush

The call came in the early morning, as Archer turned over to grab the phone his arm ran across the girl next to him, Amy or Sharon, Melanie, whatever her name was, he reached past the empty alcohol bottles, and picked up his phone. 

 

It was showing a number from the Yukon, in Canada. Twenty minutes later, Archer was packing all his tacti-necks, as well as all the warm clothing he could find, as he was heading to the Yukon to play for the Rush, not his preferable location, with the lack of scantily clad women in bikinis on the beach, but with the cold and the dark of the arctic nights, he was sure he could find someone to help warm his bed before he and some other girl found their way back to it later

 

His first season, a very raw rookie, in Yukon showed him to be one of the better players on the ice throughout the first handful of games, perhaps due to his defensive awareness and positioning. 

 

"It's all about being in the right place at the right time and the puck not in any danger in your own zone, you need to get the puck away from your zone if it is in danger."

 

That is true, Archer, having the puck on your stick and actively making shots on your opponents net is what leads to goals. Who said you were a bad hockey player?

 

"Someone said I was a bad hockey player? Who? I'd like to have a few words"

 

Relax, it was a figure of speech, Sterling. Meaning to say you are a lot better than expected. 

 

"Than who expected"

 

You know what? Never mind. So with Archers shot having put up 8 goals and 10 assists, good for 5th in league scoring, it shows that through dedication and effort, you will see results. 

 

"What? I show up drunk off my ass every practice and have been trying to get with the puck bunnies since I stepped off my plane."

 

Wait, what? So how have you had time to practice?

 

"Well I am practicing my stick handling skills, so maybe that has to do with it."

 

The Rush themselves are doing well, with 7 wins in 12 games, they find themselves in a three way tie for 2nd place of the eight minor league teams and are doing everything they can to cement it and move up to even bigger accomplishments, namely a championship. 

 

"That is my first to-do, I want to win a championship and I want to win one really soon."

 

You have that winners dedication, that drive to be the best, huh. 

 

"Oh no, can you imagine the amount of booze and women at the after party? I wouldn't be able to move an inch...not that I would."

 

Do you think of anything besides women and alcohol?

 

"Yeah, crocodiles, alligators, and aneurysms."

 

Those are pretty scary yeah, why do you think of them?

 

"Well, I have a fear of the first two, because of what they are, aneurysms can spring up anytime and without notice."

 

Yeah, You could have one in the next thirty seconds. 

 

"Oh god, no. Don't even put that in my head. AHHHH! Now I can't stop thinking of it, you asshole."

 

Well I guess that concludes my interview?

 

"What the hell is wrong with you? I'm going to die, I'm going to die, I'm going to die."

Review: Love seeing characters that people actually follow through on. I expect to see some more golden articles like this from you in the future. "Do you want ants? Because thats how you get ants."
