Defenders I wish this was under better circumstances
It has been five years since we last saw each other, five years since the defenders operated as the global peace keeping force we all vowed to be, five years since the bombing of our headquarters that lead to the accords and the end of the defenders. It was my job as your commander to keep you safe to protect and lead you in our most trying of times. Whether I failed or not..... Well you would know better than I but I do know one thing.
The world needs its shield again
I've kept tabs on most of you so I know you guys know how bad it is out there. The world is once again on the brink of war. Maniacal forces, ancient enemies, and greedy governments have once again rises after they managed to defeat us. Every day some thing new is happening and innocent civilians are getting caught in the crosshairs.
And that I can not abide
Its time for us to come back, to once again take up the mantle of shield and sword for our planet. You all come from different places, different nationalities. The powers you wield and the technology you use represent the best of humanity and our will to live. It is once again time to take up arms, to show the earth its hero's are still here.
That humanity is still defended

The truck bounced across the dirt road its electric engine protesting and whinning as it struggled down the dusty trail. The man in the car shifted his truckers cap bobbing for a second before one large hand grabbed it and pushed it down more securely on his head. The sun was setting to the west providing him with what some would say was a "killer view".
But he wasnt here for the view
"Commander to Central" He said his voice coming out gruff and hoarse "How far until target"
"Just a second Commander" A voice said young and excited "I just about got the old Iris network up and running...."
There was a sudden electric shock to the mans left eye that made him swear. Seconds later a rebooting screen came across his eye. It dinged and seconds later a series of waypoints appeared directing him as well as a total distance to the target.
"All set up" The young voice said huffing with excitement "it was a simple matter of rebooting-"
"No offense Central" The man said shaking his head "but you can spare me the techno babble I wouldn't get it any ways"
"Uh huh" Central said making a huff of disappointment "we really need some more nerdage in here"
"The call only went out three days ago" The man reminded him pulling into another more equally dusty road "the people will come"
"I wish I could share your optimism" Central said for once sounding serious "but after the accords and the battle of New Detriot"
"They will come" He growled finally spotting the police station and pulling up. He leaned back closing his eyes and pointing his head up for a second.
"They have to"
The car door slamming shut rang out over the dessert. The man sized the police station up for several minutes. He was a hulk of a man the simple fatigues he wore doing little to hide his bulk and his strength. The trucker cap pushed over his head kept his face in the shadows but there was hints of some thing more there. A line of red snaking up his neck, a handsome jaw, Of course the eyes were hidden by a pair of sunglasses but other than that the man was clearly downplaying who he was.
"You sure this is a good idea?" Central asked once more as The man stepped inside the police station "this girl... shes got a long list of priors"
"You of all people should know that people who are a little rough around the edges can make for good hero's" The man reminded Central as the police chief came over to meet him. He was a portly man the type that cropped up in dusty towns like these with little to no crime. The man would have to be careful not to break him.
"Your...." The Police Chief said walking over and his eyes widening "really him"
"I prefer John when not in uniform" John said with a wave of his hand "its a pleasure to meet you" he said holding out his hand for him to shake. The man took it keeping a nimble grip as if he was afraid John was going to crush his whole hand.
He had only done that once
"Your here about the prisoner?" The Police Chief asked raising an eyebrow "cant see why you would be..... She's a bit rough"
"I am sure you remember that the defenders were never clean cut" John said smirking slightly "I have her bail money here"
"So its true then?" The Chief asked as some of the other police men rose to look at John and one went off to go get Max "its been all over the news about the call about the defenders coming back its either that or the current escalation between russia....."
"Its true" John said his patented blunt outlook coming through "were coming back you can tell every one you heard it directly from me"
"The defenders are back"
