Chapter 0 - Football Magic
(Written in 2003) At Hope Island, we find Ma-Ti & Wheeler throwing a
football around to each other. Kwame comes by to
watch and asks if he could join.
"I don't think you know how to play football, Kwame."
said Wheeler, "There's no football teams in Africa."
"That's very mean to say Wheeler." snapped Ma-Ti, "I'm
tired anyway. Let Kwame play with you."
Ma-ti hands the ball to Kwame. Kwame then tells
Wheeler to go long. Wheeler runs deep while Kwame
threw the football into the air & Wheeler catches it.
Then Wheeler throws it to Kwame & he starts running
with the ball. Wheeler starts charging trying to
catch him, but lands on the ground. Kwame then does a
touchdown celebration dance.
Hours later, Kwame had set up a net behind a spare
tire from one of the Eco-Cycles. He had a couple of
footballs & starting aiming for the center of the tire
practicing his quarterback skills. Wheeler came by &
was amazed that Kwame's a natural quarterback.
"Man, you ought to play for the Giants!"
"Thanks Wheeler, but I like the Jets better!"
"Jets blow. Giants won more Super Bowls. Give me one
good reason why you like the Jets?"
"They have green uniforms & green's my color." said
Kwame. Wheeler groaned over that.
At Kwame's hut, we find him watching NFL football on
tv while he's playing on his set of drums. Wheeler
came by and groaned.
"Man, you got the idea from that movie, Johnny B.
Goode, where Anthony Michael Hall's a football player
who played the drums while watching football on tv!"
"I like to play drum soloes while watching football.
Excuse me, Wheeler, field goal time!"
Kwame got up from his drums, grabbed his tympani
mallets & went over to his tympani. He played a drum
roll & when the kick was good, he played fanfare
music!
"Jets win! Jets win!" exclaimed Kwame!
He turned off the game.
"Man I wish I could be a Jet for a day!"
"Why not put on a magic jersey & be transported like
that Disney Channel show, whatever that show's called,
I forgot." quipped Wheeler.
"Get real!" Kwame said, "I'm going to take a nap, so
please leave." which Wheeler did.
When Kwame took a nap, he had a cool dream. He woke
up from bed & discovered by his set of drums, there's
a real New York Jets football uniform with a #8
jersey!
"Wheeler & his practical jokes!" quipped Kwame, "I'll
wear this football uniform for him."
So Kwame changed into the football uniform & then he
placed his helmet on. Kwame goes to his drums & when
he's playing a snare drum roll, Kwame was magically
transported to Giants Stadium in East Rutherford, New
Jersey.
There he saw a sold out crowd watching a football game
between the New York Giants vs the New York Jets. The
Jets are wearing the dark green football uniforms &
are designated as the home team while the Giants are
wearing white jersies & are the visitors. Kwame
looked around seeing television cameras owned by...
"NBC Sports? Now I really must be dreaming!" quipped
Kwame.
"Hey Kambuto!" someone yelled, "You #8, come here!"
To his amazement, Kwame saw Captain Planet in a trench
coat wearing a coach's cap.
"Yes Captain Planet?"
"You read too many comic books kid." said the coach,
"I'm your coach, Tom Coburn. My main quarterback's
injured, you're starting!"
"Cool!" said Kwame, "Why did you call me Kambuto?"
"Your name's Kwame Kambuto, isn't it?" asked the
coach, "Look, you're competing against the Giants
toughest QB, #15, Billy Miller!"
Kwame looks across the field & sees who Billy Miller
really is.
"Wheeler!"
Wheeler was talking with a cheerleader & then she
started kissing him.
"Man, Linka would never do that!"
Kwame looks @ the Jets' cheerleaders with Gi leading
the way. Kwame started drooling looking at Gi. Then
another Jet wearing #24 comes over to him.
"You ready to go, Kwame?" he asks.
"Ma-ti? You've grown big!"
"No, I'm Mateo Garcia, your runningback."
Just then, Billy grabbed a mike & started rappin with
a boom box playing a rap beat.
"Yo, I'm Billy Miller, the Giants QB.
The quickest football player you'll ever see.
Our team is psyched, our team is set,
We're gonna beat the crap off the NY Jets!"
Giant fans cheered over that rap. Kwame saw a green
set of drums & a pair of tympanis. As Kwame went to
the drums,
"Two can play at that game!"
Kwame played a tympani fanfare/drumroll to psych the
fans & then goes to his drums & plays a rap beat,
rapping,
"The name is Kwame playing the drum set.
I'm the coolest QB of the New York Jets!
We're gonna beat the pants off those Giants,
We'll crush 'em & stomp 'em like small ants!"
Kwame ends by playing a cool drum solo. Then as Kwame
got off the drums, Billy charged over & both of them
got into a fight! The referees had to break up this
pre-game scuffle.
The football game began with the Giants winning the
toss & receiving. Billy lead his team to an opening
touchdown drive taking them to a 7-0 lead. Then the
Jets had a turn with Kwame also leading his team down
the field. When they reached first & goal, Kwame ran
the football himself & scored the Jets 1st touchdown
tying the game @ 7 in the 1st quarter.
When the game reached halftime tied @ 17, Kwame was
surprised that The Power Is Yours is performing as
well.
"Man, two Kwames in one fanfic!" Kwame said,
"Unbelieveable!" The other Kwame couldn't believe
there's another Kwame who plays football!
The second half turned out to be a real battle of
defense! The Giants & Jets battled it out only having
a field goal scored for each team, tying the game @ 20
and sending it into OT.
In the middle of the field, Kwame & Billy come out
with a referee flipping a coin. Since Billy was the
visitor, he called heads. But turned out tails. The
Jets got the ball first.
However, the overtime didn't matter because both teams
battled it out for a tie. Billy went over to shake
Kwame's hand.
"Good game."
"Yeah, if you like ties." said Kwame, "I thought I was
suppose to be the football hero & win the game! What
happened?"
Gaia appears,
"I told Larry to write it that way! Wake up, Kwame!"
Gaia echoes that & Kwame wakes up from his nap,
getting out of bed. Wheeler had his bass guitar with
him asking if he's ready for band practice.
"I'll be there in a minute, Billy Miller!"
"How did you know my real name?" asked Wheeler.
"In a dream." said Kwame, "You were a New York Giants
qb while I was the Jets qb!"
"Oh," exclaimed Wheeler, "Speaking of Jets, I got
something for you. It's on your snare drum."
Kwame goes to his drums & finds that on his snare drum
was a New York Jets green football jersey with the #8.
And on the back it had "KWAME".
"Cool, Wheeler!" said Kwame.
Captain Planet & the duo started playing music with
