The Search for Andy
By Lamont Christopher Doyle Stewart

The Railroaders landed on Earth after the latest battle. Never before had a team member been killed. They were just thinking about what happened.

Eric said, "I can't believe he's gone. We were in class together, and he fought by my side when we were up against Steel Hawk."

Lamont said, "We have to find a replacement for Andy, and try to tell everyone what happened to Andy."

Brad said, "Why don't we tell them the truth."

Jamie Pounds said, "What are you, stupid or something?"

Brad said, "What do you mean?"

Aren said, "What are we going to say? Hi, we have superpowers to fight a couple of groups of people trying to takeover the world, and in our last battle Andy was killed by radiation so we had to launch him to the planet Mars."

Brad said, "Huh?"

Lamont said, "Never mind. Anyway, I've got an idea who can take his place."

"Who?" asked Mandy.

"Jenny Blessing, Andy's girlfriend," said Lamont.

They went back to Vandalia to find Jenny. At first, Jenny was shocked by what they said, but after explaining for a couple of hours, Jenny decided that she would join the team.

Meanwhile in Dayton, Ohio; Charlie's boss was meeting with someone.

He said, "I see you're kind of strong; I need you to do a job for us."

The man said, "What kind of job?"

The boss said, "Bring back Andy's body from the planet Mars. With the radiation and lingering effect of the L-team ring, we can drain him of a lot of energy. But we need to do it fast before all the energy is gone."

The man said, "Sure, but what do you need energy for?"

The boss said, "There is something that is going to happen that we need energy for. Our agent in Vandalia is getting energy from a plant near the rails. The only things stopping him are the Railroaders. We sent an agent to check on him, but we don't know what happened to him. He was to smuggle the Military's Atomic Merger, but after that we lost contact with him."

The man said, "I'll get the body for you." He stepped into the light, he was Steel Hawk.

Back in Vandalia, Ohio, Jenny was completing her training when they heard an alert. It seemed that Steel Hawk was after Andy's body.

Jenny said, "No one touches my boyfriend's body except for me; let's get him."

Lamont Stewart: It's L-team time!

They held their rings in the air.

Brad Bergman: White Wizard!

Brad transformed into wizard of white magic.

Jacob McLaughlin: Trapper!

Jacob transformed into a trapper of the mountains.

Chris Leis: Tracker!

Chris Leis transformed into a master tracker of stuff.

Jamie Moore: Telepathy! Eric Griffith: Promoter!

Eric got the ability to give people more powers.

Jennifer Blessing: Master Black Belt!

Jenny transformed into a martial arts expert.

Jamie Pounds: Medical Doctor!

Jamie transformed into a doctor.

Zach Atkinson: Black Wizard!

Zach transformed into a wizard of black magic.

Mandy Darnell: Red Wizard!

Mandy transformed into a wizard of red magic.

Aren Dyer: Ninja!

Aren transformed into a ninja.

Lamont Stewart: Knight!

Lamont transformed into a knight.

They went to the time machine to chase him back to Mars.

On Mars, Steel Hawk arrived with the L-team close behind. As they were approaching the planet, Aren detected something heading for Earth. He said, "There is something heading for Earth."

Lamont said, "I know, but getting Andy's body is our first priority."

Aren said, "But what if something happens?"

Zach said, "We're in a time machine, we can just go back and stop it."

They landed on Mars, but when they got there, Steel had already tampered with the planet. For it was covered with lush vegetation. They went and found Andy's casket, but when they got there the body was gone.

Lamont said, "Ah, man, we're too late. Andy is gone already."

Just then, Steel attacked and said, "Alright, where is the body?"

Eric said, "He doesn't have him, either."

The L-team broke free of his grasp, and headed off to find Andy. They were about to give up when they saw a body in the distance. They ran to it, and checked its face. It was Andy White.

"He's still breathing," Jenny said.

Lamont said, "When Steel Hawk made the planet alive, it must have activated Andy, too."

Just then, Steel appeared and said, "You deprived me of my bounty, but I'll just bring you all in now."

Lamont said, "You guys get back to the ship; I'll take care of metal man here."

They started to battle it out. Steel was so outraged that he started to break the planet back down to normal. Seeing this, Lamont kicked into action and said, "L-team ring power now!"

The ring fired and blew up Steel's flying device, and he was left floating in space. Lamont quickly made it back to the ship and they took off.

Jenny gave Andy his ring back, and he promised to get her, her own ring. Then they all settled in as they continued home.

Next time during the trip home, an alien will block the L-team. Will they be able to find the thing he is searching for?
