"You have five minutes..."

Ten years ago, you left Elias high and dry at the lowest point of his life. His leg, ruined. His career, gone. That was more than you signed up for so you left him and twelve year old Isaiah behind. Now you're back, and Elias is looking at you like he wishes you'd just stayed gone.

The Renegades were solid and a win here might finally give Elias’s rough team the league respect they deserved. The kids might be a bunch of roughneck assholes but they were damn good players-

Mom is looking for you.

The final buzzer echoed in the arena and Elias joined the scant handful of Brawler’s fans in the stands and his own players, roaring at the flashing lights in Detroit’s net. Nero had flicked the puck right over their goalie’s shoulder in the last second securing the win for New Jersey. An almost feral grin tugged up the corners of Ellas’s mouth as he shook Nero like a maraca, praising him and smacking the kid’s helmet like a proud dad. Nero was a little shit, but he was a hell of a player and to be honest he had mellowed since he went and got himself hitched.
