FightingLeaf and Husky

Character History:
The early history of FightingLeaf and Husky had previously been unknown in some of his earlier reviews in his series "You're Gonna Regret It", but some hints of something else going on behind the scenes had been hinted at on a few occasions, like the appearance of the dark green entity known as The Master in You're Gonna Regret It: Alvin and The Chipmunks, or seeing Connan rushing inside and than transforming into Fightingleaf and Husky in You're Gonna Regret It: Speed Racer.

These Are Their Stories( A Halloween Special):
Finally in the Halloween special, These Are Their Stories, unlike Sean and Doctor Menace, his full background is revealed but unfortunately is one of darkness and sorrow. Fightingleaf, when he was young, lived in a forest as his father was a woodsman. During his time there, his father befriended a wolf, now known as Husky ( who would soon be his faithful companion). His father went away and made a deal with Husky, asking him to protect his family while he was away, leaving a leaf pendant as a symbol of their deal. Tragedy struck however when one day Leaf's father returned with a sword in his hand and brutally murdered Leaf's family. Leaf survived with his left hand chopped off, and Husky lost his entire body with his head being removed. Soon after Leaf encountered The Master, a mysterious dark being capable of granting powerful abilities to others, abilities which he promised Leaf and Husky so they could have vengeance if they swore eternal loyalty to him. They agreed, and then The Master granted Leaf new abilities, now known as Awesomness Energy, with Husky now attached to where his left hand once was. Fightingleaf and Husky found Leaf's father, discovering that he had attacked them, because he believed that Leaf and his family were burdens that he didn't have to bear, because of a town he had found. His "new family." Leaf than burnt the entire town to the ground in revenge, leaving him alive.

Fightingleaf Mastery:
A prequel series later showcases early events of Fightingleaf and Husky's life under the Master's control, including his first meeting with Professor Cabbage and learning how to control his abilities. Presumably, this will also show how he began his reviews.

Go out and Buy This:
Eventually Leaf and Husky, now with allies Professor Cabbage, a Pokemon professor, and Rugburn, a Sonic The Hedgehog fanboy, both fellow servants to The Master, were being forced by him to review terrible kids movies in the series You're Gonna Regret It, as negative energy were what gave him strength. Finally Leaf had enough and instead started making small reviews of good movies, such as Scooby Doo on Zombie Island, and The Great Mouse Detective. However The Master found out and began to attack them.

The fightingVibraniumleaf Productions Crossover of totally Neeto-ness:
Luckily Leaf and Husky had already made a plan for when The Master finds out about their treachery. They had worked with Prof. Cabbage to make artificial Awesomeness Energy, in the form of a syrum nicknamed Awesome Sauce, in case The Master removes their natural Awesomeness Energy. Sadly Cabbage ended up having the syrum stolen from him by The Master, who then gave it to Sean Basinger's enemy The Hooded Villain. Fightingleaf asks Sean for his assistance, but in return Sean asks them to join a team of heroes he was working on, first Husky asks that he proves himself in order to see if he is worth it by having him review kids films from the 40's. After the review is done, The Hooded Villain appears with the Awesomeness Syrum and than takes it, making himself bullet proof and super strong. Luckily Cabbage sends a backup syrum, called Lameness Syrum, returning him to normal allowing Sean to beat him up, and take the Awesomeness Syrum back. After all of that Fightingleaf and Husky agree to join Sean's team, becoming the second Crusader.

Showdown With Destiny:
Fightingleaf, Husky, and Rugburn have a final talk, now prepared to fight The Master. Rugburn says that after they finally defeat The Master, they will have no reason to interact anymore. With each hero prepared with a small vial of Awesomeness Syrum only to be used in case of emergency. After Cabbage summons The Master, Rugburn jumps the gun and ends up taking his Awesome Sauce ahead of time, only to discover that another one of The Masters minions, Men's Pocky, switched out Rugburn's Awesome Sauce with the Lame sauce, turning him into an emo. When Leaf and Husky try to take their vial, Rugburn knocks them down and takes the vial offering it to The Master, but luckily breaks from his control and takes it himself returning him to normal. With no more backup, The Master ends up attacking the three with their worst fears, but luckily are saved by Shaynerd the Mac. Finally The Master had enough and took away Leaf and Husky's powers, reverting Leaf into his previously unknown Connan Bell form, and Husky into his wolf puppet form. Rugburn than calls upon the power of the Sonic fanbase turning him into Super Rugburn, and Leaf calls upon his own fanbase and subscribers through a few cameos which included his Crusader ally Sean and his sister Stephanie, restoring their powers and transforming him and Husky into a new form known as Shiningleaf and the three were able to free themselves of the Master's clutches and destroying him. After that Leaf, Rugburn and Prof. Cabbage went their seperate ways.

When Leaves Burn:
After the fight against The Master, Leaf and Husky returned to their You're Gonna Regret It series, but after Sean was contacted by a mysterious figure claiming to be a government agent asking for assistance in finding codes to control the internet, he called Leaf and Husky asking for assistance in getting a piece of the internet code, in the first adventure of The Crusaders team. Leaf and Husky end up going to Japan and meet with Randall, a character who made a brief appearance in his previous video "Supermeme." After defeating him it's revealed that he serves the Master, who survived their previous encounter since as long as he has one servant still alive, he will always survive. The Master's new plan is to use people's email addresses in order to take new recruits, as well as planning to take revenge on Leaf, Husky, Rugburn, and Cabbage.

Leaf and Husky call Cabbage to warn him not check their accounts, when Randall comes back, his body under control of the Master. After using too much power in order to defeat him, Husky ends up completely exhausted of power. Rugburn and Prof. Cabbage meets up with Leaf, where Rugburn says they should check their emails, but Leaf and Cabbage end up arguing about it until Cabbage reveals he has a new plan. He has two key chains that he claims are fusion earrings. Because of the unpredictability and limited time on their super forms, Cabbage suggests that this may be their only course of action in order to defeat the Master. Despite the possibility of the fusion being permanent, Leaf, Husky, and Rugburn agree on fusing in order to defeat the Master. Later, the four end up outside where Cabbage checks his emails, summoning the Master. Leaf, Husky and Rugburn fuse together, becoming Burningleaf, and using the combined power of Rugburn's superspeed and Fightingleaf's teleportation abilities, they end up not only destroying the Master, but also end up separating back to their natural forms and retrieve the internet code in the process.

The Gift to Mankind:
After all three crusaders defeated their respective enemies and retrieved all of the codes, Sean returned them to the government agent who got in touch with him about this in the first place, which turned out to be a virus created by a scientist named Professor Bernon Loreign. The virus proceeded to prepare to activate all of the atomic bombs on the planet, there by wiping out humanity. Luckily, while the virus monologued, Sean had all of the others listening in, and were now prepared to destroy it. After Sean tried to turn off his computer, he sent the virus to Fightingleaf, Husky, Rugburn, and Prof. Cabbage. While Leaf, Husky, and Rugburn distracted the virus, Sean and Dr. Menace prepared a secret weapon, before Cabbage sent the virus to Menace. Menace used his secret weapon to transport himself into the computer, but sadly had no means to fight the virus. Through a double ending, Menace either asks for Sean's help, who sends a huge amount of spam into the computer, thereby overloading the virus and destroying it, or asks for Leaf and Husky's help, resulting in Cabbage creating a weapon similar to Menace's that allows Husky to blast the virus with a huge amount of Awesomeness Energy, thereby destroying it. Either way, the day is saved and everyone goes home happy.

Counterplay:
After The Master teams up with another one of Sean's enemies, Wolfgang, and Dr. Menace's enemy Dr. Walc, in a team known as The Congregation of Fear, suggesting the three switch opponents in order to defeat The Crusaders, Dr. Walc, working with Frank Franklin, arrive at Fightingleaf's base. Frank puts Cabbage to sleep, and sends Rugburn to meet Dr. Walc, who takes control of his mind. Leaf and Husky end up picking a fight in their super forms, until they eventually break Rugburn from Walc's control. After meeting with Dr. Walc and being immobilized, they absorb his attack and shoot it back, where they are later told the plan that The Master had forged. After contacting Sean, the three along with Dr. Menace end up trapping the three supervillains inside The Master's dark dimension.

Fightingleaf and the Yellow Brick Road:
Fightingleaf and Husky are once again living with Prof. Cabbage, Rugburn, and new character Jerry Jay, a Pokemon trainer/musician. After training and working on their show extensively, Cabbage explains how Leaf has been acting bizarre ever since the Cipher Crusade, and has been getting worse after Counterplay, and explains the extent of Leaf's backstory to Jerry Jay. Leaf laments to Husky in song and Jerry Jay ends up seeing, but threatens him if he ever says this to anyone.

Later he says that he wishes for Rugburn, Cabbage and Jerry to leave the show and wishes for it once again to be exclusively himself and Husky. However, The Master attacks again as he found a whole in the barrier around his dimension big enough to pull Leaf and his friends inside. After being pulled inside, Leaf and Husky discover that the dark dimension has been turned into a Wizard of Oz parody and, according to Shaynerd who made contact with them, that in order to defeat The Master they must find a morale of the story.

After finding the others Leaf has a talk with Jerry describing how he has lost interest in making reviews and how he feels nobody watches them otherwise. Later he and Husky find The Master who says that he has wishes to no longer fight the two of them because he has become obsessed with the thoughts of their death, and so wants the two to leave him be, and he will leave them be. However Leaf and Husky refuse his offer and after returning to the others finds that Wolfgang, Dr. Walc and Randall had layed an ambush. After Randall absorbs the strength of Walc and Wolfgang, it turns out Leaf's Father appears as well and begins to fight Leaf and Husky. After being defeated by his father, Cabbage and Jerry took turns carrying him the rest of the way to the Emerald City.

As it turns out however, the City they were in was an illusion made by Poppies, and end up being put to sleep. Luckily, using his flute abilities, Jerry was able to wake them up. After arriving in the true city they end up meeting with Dr. Menace who was studying the dark dimension's barrier and was contacted by The Master to be the wizard for their parody.

Leaf, Husky and Rugburn end up turning into their super forms but have no luck in fighting the Master, until Jerry reveals that because of the three being rapped up in their own egos that even with both of their super forms they couldn't do anything against The Master, but when Jerry begins playing his flute the two end up being reinvigorated with power and begin to fight The Master again, as Leaf discovers the moral of the story. For a long while Leaf hated himself for having to be helped by others, but now realizes that there is no shame in having to ask for help. Thus Leaf summons more strength not only from his team, but also from Dr. Menace, Stephanie, Sean Basinger, and even the Dumb Burglars, finally destroying The Master once and for all.

Fightingleaf and Rugburn have a last talk, and Leaf says how he now wishes for Rugburn, Prof. Cabbage and Jerry to stay, and even take a break from work. Sadly the dark dimension ends up collapsing, but luckily Rugburn and Leaf pull Cabbage and Jerry, who was knocked unconscious from playing his flute, and jump through the whole in the dark dimension.

After that Cabbage tells Leaf and Husky about how Jerry Jay was able to power up Fightingleaf, Husky and Rugburn because of a newfound energy source that he calls Righteousness Energy. He also reveals that the energy is not as potent as Awesomeness Energy and that The Master also had a strong aversion to it, which is why he was able to be destroyed. He also reveals that not only did Jerry Jay have it but also Sean Basinger, as was shown in Counterplay when he defeated The Master, and neither know that they have those powers. Leaf chooses that none of them should tell either Sean or Jerry they have those powers, because it would be better neither not know what they are capable of.

Game Over:
Sean Basinger calls the rest of The Crusaders and tells them about Zeth Zamora, his evil clone from another dimension and current leader of The 26 Society, in order to get help to defeat him. Just then Zeth himself shows up at his house and transports him into a digital world, he also ends up transporting Menace, Leaf and Husky into the world as well. Fightingleaf and Husky wake up in the virtual world and discover Prof. Cabbage who is now acting like a professor from the Pokemon video games. It is now revealed from the Dumb Burglars that they are in the virtual world and they must complete the game in order to leave. After meeting a virtual version of Randall, who they manage to defeat they are then met by Zeth Zamora who turns them into pure data and trap them in a memory stick. Later, as Sean is being attacked by Zamora, Leaf and Husky manage to use their powers over energy in order to send them, and Menace, back into the virtual world, where they defeat Zamora and save Marketown, before returning to the real world.

You're Gonna Regret It Chipwrecked.
We see a pirate like character, who turns out to be Mister Director from the Guardians of Avalon mini-series, teamed up with a young dragoness called Luna and a small lizard infiltrating a CIA base in California and inadvertently making contact with Prof. Cabbage. Leaf and Husky end up offering to help only if they help them with the review. After the review Fightingleaf and Husky transformed into Shiningleaf and destroyed the base. After that it turns out MD, Luna, and the lizard, disappeared with no trace, but Leaf says they may see him again.

Act I: The Alpha Candidate:
Conner Faraday, a werewolf and latest member of the Crusaders, asks for them to help him when going to the city of Avalon when he goes to try out for becoming the Alpha Male of the Werewolves. After being shot down over the city by some strange magic, The Crusaders meet a man named Lazar Necronis, who Leaf and Husky believe might have something to do with how they crashed down upon sensing something weird about him. Later, The Crusaders discover that Conner has a brother named Miles, who he has to challenge in order to become the Alpha Male, and that he had a uncle named Randolph Marcott, who was the previous Alpha and had tried to turn all the humans in the world into werewolves, before he was stopped by Conner. Husky and Menace were upset about this being kept from them, but Leaf says that he has the right to his secrets, and that he and Husky of all people should understand this.

Later, during the first trial, Leaf and Husky do a search through the building being used for the trial, to be sure that there were no traps laid out by Miles. When Necronis uses a spell to make it nighttime in order for Conner and Miles to transform, Leaf asks one of the judges, Jack the Ghost, where Necronis got some of his spells, as the spell reminds them of the Master's ability to create nighttime, and he reveals that for a while Necronis worked for a demon. During the trial, the dragon member of the council, Sabilina, attacks Conner, forcing Leaf and Husky pick up the fight. However, they end up being thrown into the building, where Leaf is knocked unconscious. Menace jumps inside and tries to help, but Conner is thrown inside too, as Sabilina begins to attack again.

Act II: Shadow of The Master
After being saved by Sean and Todd Jackson in their helicopter, they discover that Sabilina was enchanted, which is apparently impossible to happen to a dragon. Leaf suggests that demonic forces were at work here, implying the Master had a stake in this, but Necronis says that it may have been scientific, suggesting that it may have been Menace who was responsible. Naturally, nobody else believes this, so the Crusaders begin doing their own research in order to prove Necronis was the one responsible, and may have even been allied with Miles in order to stop Conner from becoming the Alpha. Leaf and Husky go to find proof in his room, and after avoiding some traps, they are able to find what they need, but end up being attacked by Necronis. They manage to overcome him, but are caught in a trap called the "Gorgon Stone" which turns them to stone.

Act III: By The Powers That Be:
After being rescued by Sean in The Enchanted Forest using Excalibur, Leaf makes a comment on how Sean is able to use it because of Cabbages theories (referencing the recent discovery of Righteousness Energy), but when Sean questions it, he brushes it aside. When the three return to the main city, they discover that Necronis managed to convince the council that they were responsible for Sabilina's enchantment. After rescuing Menace and Todd from the prison, they are met by Jack, who explains that Conner was fighting Necronis, who made his move and stole the relic called the Merlinian Ring. He takes them to a place where he reveals that Menace, Sean, Fightingleaf and Husky were destined to save Avalon from great evil. He gives Fightingleaf and Husky new armor that will protect them from the magic of the ring, and they all go to fight Necronis and save Conner. They all manage to defeat Necronis, with Conner becoming the new Alpha Male, meaning he would only be able to work as a part-time Crusader. After returning all their relics, The Crusaders return to their homes.

Crusader Adventures Episode 04: The Roxwell Experiment:
After returning from their Avalon trip, they discover that Prof. Cabbage's Awesomness Syrum experiments were stolen from him by a hacker. They also learn that Cabbage was not only working on a more powerful version of the Awesomeness Syrum, that would give the user powers on par with the likes of themselves and Rugburn, but also a form of Awesomness Energy as a clean renewable energy source. After contacting the other Crusaders, they discover that the energy was stolen by The 26 Society, who intended to test it on a serial killer called Charles Roxwell. Later, they meet Roxwell, who was already given the syrum, and through his own insanity, made a new energy called "Epic Fail Energy." After transforming into Shiningleaf, they, with the help of Cabbage and the other Crusaders, ended up not only defeating Roxwell, but making him sane in the process.

Act I: Smart As a Fox.
After Nixon Watergate buys a supposedly haunted castle, The Crusaders go to investigate it after the Dumb Burglars claim they encountered the ghost, and find that the spirit was a fox ghost who ended up merging with Sean, turning him into a half human, half fox hybrid. Later, they discover that it isn't truly a possession, but rather a fusion, and that there is no clear way of telling when or if they will ever be separated. When they're alone, Cabbage later explains to Leaf and Husky that the fox was drawn to Sean because of his Righteousness Energy, but upon being told that Sean won't be harmed by the spirit, Leaf brushes it off as Sean's problem, while Husky is overjoyed at the prospects of the Crusaders entirely being canine themed.

Act II: Incursion of The Dead.
Later, Leaf and Husky discover a supposed mobster was murdered by many foxes, or one big fox. They decide to wait and see for sure if it were Sean, given Cabbage's original theories that the fox would not take over Sean's mind. Later, they know for sure it wasn't Sean, upon Sean and Stephanie finding a zombie in the streets. Research reveals that it was actually a dark fairy that was responsible, who they then meet in the form of Lady Victoria Noir, who says that she plans to take Fightingleaf as a form of revenge for destroying The Master, as she is one of his servants. Later, Sean, Fightingleaf and Husky follow Noir to an airfield where Sean attacks the two of them, because of Noirs ability to control foxes, but the two were able to defeat him. Leaf and Husky end up being attacked by a lighting strike from Noir after this, that ends up knocking the two unconscious, where they are taken away by Noir and the controlled Sean.

Later, after the rest of the crew finds Leaf, Sean, and Husky, they make a stand in order to protect Leaf and Husky from Noir's army of zombies. Cabbage ends up bringing Leaf and Husky in an attempt to escape as they get slowly overwhelmed, but Noir ends up jumping the three of them. She's injured by the others, but ends up failing the sacrifice by stabbing Sean. Menace, Leaf and Husky end up finding Noir again and force her to run, swearing that they will find her if Sean dies. Luckily, Sean was able to survive the attack thanks to the fox spirit, and they were all able to go Nixon's castle to have a party.

They than meet the Ringmaster Johnathan Discorde, and see Alexys is one of the preformers. Leaf and Husky end up following the ringmaster and hear him talking to the clown named Quigly. They discover Discorde's plan to kidnap Alexys as an attraction to bring people to the show, and that something is under the bigtop. Leaf follows but is jumped by the clown and is hit with pies, that made him forget his identity, and become one of the clowns. Sean and Menace discover that the clowns are demons and Discorde is War.

Leaf and Husky later describe that Alexys is stronger than she appears with how she was able to free herself from Discorde's mind control, along with the fact that she encountered supreme magic as well as death as a physical entity, yet remains as perky as she normally is.

You're Gonna Regret It Hop & Beverly Hills Chiuahua 3.
During both of these reviews, Leaf and Husky did them as Shiningleaf, but as it turns out according to Cabbage transforming into Shiningleaf takes a great deal of energy and, by the end end of the Beverly Hills review, end up "blowing a fuse" resulting in them temporarily losing the ability to transform. Also in the Hop review, we get a shot of Xavier, clearly studying the Crusaders for their abilities, and at the end of the Beverly Hills review we discover Zamora giving information about The Crusaders to Xavier in return for weapon, which turned out to be Birdemic 2: The Resurrection.

The Crusaders Review: Birdemic 2 The Resurrection.
All three of the founding Crusaders were all sent a copy of Birdemic 2: The Resurrection and they all discover they were sent the copies from Zeth Zamora, Dr. Walc, and The Master. It turns out Zeth had found a way to resurrect The Master and have him possess Clancy Carlton. They also needed to have The Crusaders review Birdemic 2 in order to fully restore The Master's powers or else they would attack other reviewers to make them review it. The Crusaders review it, along with the help of Stephanie, Todd and Prof. Cabbage. After the review however, it is unknown where the villains went. Leaf and Husky at this point also stopped reviewing terrible movies for a time and moved on to a new show called Kid Movie Ninja.

Crusader Adventures Episode 11: Bird of Prey
Jerry Jay and Prof. Cabbage end up being attacked by Miles Faraday. After kidnapping Cabbage, he goes to attack Jerry in order to have no witnesses, luckily Jerry is rescued by a winged girl named Alari Kuso. After returning to the headquarters, Leaf and Husky are unsure whether to trust this new girl or not, but luckily Menace arrives to help back up her story. They are then informed how Alari was a genetic experiment, which is how she got her wings, and after escaping wherever she was (as she has no memory of that) she sees The Crusaders defeat the Loreign Virus, and she began to help people herself. Later she discovers Miles, who is working for The New Congregation of Fear, and how they plan on taking Cabbage's research on Awesomeness Energy.

Later with Jerry and Menace in tow, they arrive at the castle where Walc is held up, and meet Miles. After fighting him, he uses a moonstone to weaken Husky making it easier for him to nearly defeat the two of them, luckily Alari shows up and helps them out forcing Miles to escape. They go inside the castle as Menace and Jerry find Cabbage and get him out of the dungeon. But Dr. Walc shows up and traps Menace in a cube. Luckily Leaf and Alari show up, and force Dr. Walc to escape. Later they report back to Waverly Wednesday and Jason Turner,(who called Dr. Menace on the case earlier). Alari proceeds to depart, saying she'll think about their offer to join The Crusaders. Leaf still has his doubts about her and whether she should be trusted or not, but Jason and Menace inform him how even Sean had his on doubts when he first hired them to join The Crusaders.

We All Fall Down.
After Sean and his sister Stephanie are attacked by the mysterious masked figure known as Xavier, (first seen in The Guardians of Avalon), Prof. Cabbage discovers a huge amount of Righteousness Energy comming from Sean's house, as he managed to tap into it to try and fight Xavier. Leaf and Rugburn are having a discussion as Cabbage brings them this information. After they send Rugburn to investigate, with an energy sensing toaster, they quickly discuss how both Sean and Jerry Jay have the ability to summon and control their Rightouseness energy, usually when they're hit with waves of great inspiration, but have no idea they even have it, than Jerry himself shows up but Leaf tells him it was nothing. Xavier than shows up and says that he wants Husky. Leaf senses that Xavier has control over both Awesomeness, and Righteousness energy, and as a demonstration, he teleports Cabbage away. Leaf and Husky transform into Shiningleaf and proceeds to try and fight Xavier, but none of his attacks have any affect. After managing to stun him, Xavier takes a sword and slices Husky off of Leaf's arm. Jerry tells Leaf he'll call an ambulance, but Leaf tells him to call Rugburn instead, and he than passes out.

Walkabout:
Very briefly at the end of this chapter, Husky was seen inside Xavier's secret base yelling at Xavier wishing to watch Tiny Toons, but was than blasted with energy.

The Law of Awesome.
At Leaf's base, Rugburn is explaining to Jerry about how he wasn't able to find anybody at Menace Manor and the place had been burnt to the ground. Leaf says how their all screwed now, but Rugburn tells him to hide at Sean's house while he tries to go find help from anybody at Avalon. Rugburn drops off Leaf at Sean's house where he meets Stephanie. Leaf believies that Rugburn doesn't stand a chance against the masked man, even with Avalon helping him, as Xavier was able to brush off all of his attacks. Stephanie points out that Leaf doesn't sound like he had before, and asks who he is. He tells her that he is Fightingleaf, but she says that he isn't now.

Leaf tells Stephanie that Husky is what made him awesome, and gave him all of his powers, and what made him Fightingleaf. Husky is what gave him Awesomeness Energy, and without him he "downgrades." Randal than appears and wishes to fight "Fightingleaf", but "Leaf" is able to defeat Randal with a single punch. After being asked where his Energy went, he says how Xavier stole his powers from him just like Leaf and Husky. But, he says that he will get his energy back by training and fighting strong enemies.

Todd Jackson then walks in and Randall begins to fight him, but Todd is too strong and begins fireing lasers at him. "Leaf" stops the fight, but Randall than launches Todd into the atmosphere with a single punch. Stephanie points out how Randal may have been right about how he believed that he could get his energy back by fighting stronger opponents. "Leaf" still believes otherwise, but they go inside to check the energy sensor that Cabbage had invented. It didn't work, until they put two pieces of bread in, that's where they discover that the energy sensor works by putting the data on the two slices of toast. Randal begins to train, and his Awesomeness Energy did raise. "Leaf" and Randal than go out to train and Randal asks what Leaf's power is, as he was able to find him because, even without Awesomeness, he still had some power inside him. Leaf reveals that he has the ability to Earthbend, just like his father. Randal tells him to use his power, but the real Fightingleaf appears in "Leaf's" mind telling him that he shouldn't, and couldn't use this power. "Leaf" tells Leaf that if he doesn't than he will die, and Fightingleaf says that he would rather die than have him get closer to becoming like their father. "Leaf" than refuses to do this, and stops training. Later Fightingleaf appears before "Leaf" again, saying how he swore never to use those powers and how he made the right choice. "Leaf" retaliates by saying how now there is no way to save Husky or him, but Fightingleaf says again how he would rather die than be like his father, he also says that there are many lives to live, and how he should pick one and learn to like it. Rugburn than returns and tells Leaf everything going on now with how Nixon and Conner found a way to defeat Xavier, but "Leaf" says how nobody can defeat him, and how he can do nothing to help them. Rugburn says how Awesomeness depends about what you do, doing what you have do despite the odds. Being awesome depends on having the guts to do what is necessary. "Leaf" than uses his power to shoot a mountain some distance. The two decide to return to Sean's house, but Rugburn gets struck by lightning, and "Leaf" hears Randall in trouble. "Leaf" returns to the house to discover Stephanie under the control of someone called Malphas, in a costume with the ability to shoot lightning. Randal wishes to fight her, but "Leaf" responds by saying how they can't fight her as she is still Stephanie, and wishes to fight her alone. After dodging one of her attacks, he uses his own powers to shoot a rock at her head, knocking sense back into her. They bring Rugburn back to the house still unconscious leaving Stephanie to watch him, as "Leaf" and Randal go to Nixon's penthouse to join up with the others. Before he can leave Stephanie asks him what his name is, and he tells her it is Connan Bell.

Beyond Good and Evil:
Everybody, aside from Sean, The Ghoul and The Dumb Burglars, are at Nixon's penthouse waiting for the cure to be finished. They are all suggesting ways to defeat Xavier when Connan suggests the main strategy of striking in teams of two to allow Xavier to get tired enough for the cure to be used, and for some of the others to retrieve their stolen items. Sean than appears informing everyone that Xavier is under the control of the demon Malphas, and how he is going to use their stolen items in a ritual to unleash The Tree of Good and Evil. Once that is done, Malphas will convince Xavier to eat The Forbidden Fruit and unleash a new evil unto the world, a new evil that will be unstoppable, and nobody will stop it. They all arrive at the clearing where Xavier and Malphas are preforming the ritual. Xavier will not listen to their plea, so instead they go onto fight. When it was the pairing of Connan and Randal, Randal attacked long enough for Connan to summon a giant rock to crush Xavier. But Xavier managed to destroy the rock knocking both of them back. Later, after The Dumb Burglars were able to free Prof. Cabbage and the items, Connan was reunited with Husky transforming back into Fightingleaf. The two than resumed the fight assisting in Xavier's defeat, and return to mortality. Sadly they weren't able to stop Malphas from summoning the tree, and it appeared right into the middle of Marketown. Malphas attempts to convince somebody to bite the fruit, but they all refuse and thus he brings Sean, Fightingleaf, Husky, Dr. Menace, Conner, MD, Alari, Avian, Dr. Walc, The Ghoul and Randal into his own pocket dimension. They all begin to fight Malphas and make multiple plans to defeat him and go back home. They start by using Menace's Keyblade/ Soul Rapier mixed with MD's pocketwatch to open a portal back home, while Sean and Shiningleaf attempt to fight Malphas. Shiningleaf accidentally blasts Sean with energy thus knocking him out. Malphas than gets hit by Alari, and Leaf assists but Malphas uses his own energy to temporarily depower them. As they're trying to get their powers back, they convince The Ghoul to use a new Death Sphere. They then manage to gain enough energy to divert Malphas' attention from Sean. They later blasted The Ghoul's death sphere causing it to create a huge explosion right in Malphas' face. But the explosion also ended up knocking them, and everyone else out aside from Sean and Malphas. Luckily Sean managed to immobilize Malphas, in order to allow Menace to stab him through the heart with his Soul Rapier, thus killing him. The others than came to and returned to Marketown. Once back Leaf admits that he had admitted his identity to others, much to Cabbage and Husky's distress. As it turns out, the portal that bought the tree into the world began to collapse and could cause much destruction if left unchecked. It also turns out, that the only way it could be closed by somebody from the other side. After a bit of arguing, Leaf suggests that Xavier should be the one to close it, and he decides to do just that seeing it as a fitting punishment. When Waverly Wednesday wants answers Sean suggests that he tell the truth about everything that happened.

Epilogue:
At Sean's house, Sean asks if Leaf and Husky were alright after Leaf's identity as Connan Bell was revealed, and while Husky believes that it was a bad thing, Leaf believes that if he can trust Cabbage and Rugburn with their identity, then he can trust Sean, Menace, and the others with it as well. Later, Cabbage checks to make sure if any villains heard him tell his name, but Leaf says he only told those allied with The Crusaders. However, it's later revealed that the Dumb Burglars heard Leaf's name as well, before Leaf's Father appears before them, claiming he has a suggestion as to what they should do with it.

Kid Movie Apocalypse:
Leaf and Husky would later return to reviewing kids movies in a new series called Kid Movie Ninja, where he chose to look exclusively at good kids films like Rango and Coraline. That is, until MD sends him a message from the future, claiming that an apocalypse of bad kids movies would doom civilization, and only Fightingeaf and Husky could stop it, causing them to revive You're Gonna Regret It with The Lion Guard.

Kid Movie Ninja: The Lego Movie.
Leaf would cycle back and forth between Kid Movie Ninja and You're Gonna Regret It, but his next big chapter would begin with his review of The Lego Movie, which ends up with him in a new realm alongside a mysterious entity that bears his face called "The Persona", who continues taunting him and mocking him from the shadows as Leaf and Husky continue through the review.

During the review, Leaf finds himself constantly switching back and forth from Fightingleaf and Husky, to Connan Bell, and even having Husky with Connan on a few occasions. Midway through, the Persona torments Leaf/Connan by asking him why he bothers being both Leaf and Connan when everyone knows who he is now, bringing up how Connan created the Fightingleaf identity after his family was killed, and even claiming that Leaf wants Connan Bell to cease existing.

Eventually, Dr. Menace reveals that Leaf loved the Lego Movie so much that it actually caused him to get sucked inside the TV he was watching it on, and the Persona is actually his Shadow that wants Leaf to deny him so that he could gain power, when in reality, he truly is a part of Leaf. Every negative feeling he doesn't want to accept.

In the end, with the support of his friends, Leaf is able to overcome his own negativity, accepting that he is both Fightingleaf and Connan Bell. The Persona is beaten by being accepted as a part of who Leaf is, before he returns to the real world and continues his reviews.

Powers And Abilities:
Awesomeness Energy: A strange energy that they aquired while working for The Master, and kept after betraying him. Leaf and Husky can harness the energy into multiple forms and combat techniques that Leaf calls his Ninja Arts, as well as long or short range teleportation.

Ninjitsu: Leaf and Husky are also skilled ninjas. mixing their Awesomeness Energy well with their combat. Their main weapon is a single kunai which they use to it's full potential.

Ninja Arts: By utilizing Awesomeness Energy with their own ninjitsu, Fightingleaf is able to access a new set of abilities to better defeat his enemies in battle. Earthbending: Leaf is a born earthbender, as discovered in The Cipher Crusade: Beyond Good and Evil. He had originally sworn never to use it, as he resented being anything like his father, who'd demonstrated earthbending in the past. But after being separated from Husky and reverted back to Connan Bell he found he had to use it in order to help defeat Xavier, save Husky( and in turn Fightingleaf) and save the world.
 * Multi-Man Strike: A technique where Leaf creates multiple clone constructs of himself and Husky that jump at his enemy. (Presumably inspired by Naruto's Shadow Clone Jutsu.)
 * All-Seeing Eye: A technique that allows Leaf to see everything around him, inluding enemies that are invisible. (Has only been used against Necronis in Crusader Adventures: The Shadow of The Master.)
 * Spirialing Fury: A technique where Leaf and Husky spin around at a very fast rate, destroying anything in his path. Originally thought of by Rugburn.
 * Consuming Light: A technique where Leaf blasts energy from Husky's maw illuminating anything in his path. (Has only been used in his battle against Necronis in Crusader Adventures: The Shadow of the Master.)

Shiningleaf: A transformation where Leaf and Husky's Awesomeness Energy is increased in power immensely, offering them a new set of techniques. The transformation is activated by summoning power from his friends and subscribers. As discovered later in Kid Movie Ninja: The Lego Movie, Sean explains that Shiningleaf is fueled by the power of faith, as most times he'd used it he'd had faith from somebody else; The faith of his subscribers in Showdown With Destiny, where he first used it, the faith of Jerry Jay in Fightingleaf and the Yellow Brick Road. Techniques Teamed With Rugburn: As seen in Fightingleaf and The Yellow Brick Road Leaf, Husky and Rugburn can mix techniques with each other when in their super forms to create stronger versions of their original attacks. Burningleaf: A fusion of both Fightingleaf, Husky and Rugburn introduced in the part of The Cipher Crusade, "When Leaves Burn", where they become one being immensely stronger than any of them when separate. It is unknown how strong they actually are in this form, but it is safe to assume they're just as strong as Shiningleaf or Super Rugburn, as they were able to destroy The Master in a single attack. It is unlikely that they will ever fuse again however, as it was a real risk that they could have been stuck together forever, and only separated out of luck (and plot convenience). As mentioned in the film itself, Burningleaf is heavily inspired by Potara Fusions like Vegito from the Dragon Ball franchise.
 * Five-pointed Star: A technique where Leaf and Husky create four clones of themselves, where they all shoot energy beams at each other in a pentagram form, creating a star of pure Awesomeness Energy.
 * Scorched Earth: A technique where Leaf shoots a beam of pure Awesomeness Energy from Husky at the earth under his enemies feet, creating a huge amount of fire made from Awesomeness Energy.
 * Celestial Fang: A technique where Husky harnesses Awesomeness Energy in his teeth in a construct larger than he is, and than bites down on his enemies.
 * Judgement of The Reviewer: Presumably their most powerful technique, where Leaf and Husky blasts pure Awesomeness Energy through Husky, completely engulfing his enemies. At first, in Showdown With Destiny, the screen was merely consumed by white light, but later in Fightingleaf and The Yellow Brick Road, it is shown to come out in an expanding funnel shape.
 * Five Pointed Comet: A fusion technique of Fightingleaf and Husky's Five Pointed Star and Rugburn's Super Sonic Comet techniques. In this version, Rugburn races along the outline of Leaf's star of Awesomeness Energy in ball form.
 * Celestial Frenzy: A fusion technique of Fightingleaf and Husky's Celestial Fang and Rugburn's Frenzy! techniques. In this version, Husky uses his Fang construct which is absorbed into Rugburn's Frenzy! form, making it blue instead of purple.

Allies:
Themselves: Leaf and Husky seem to have a mutual respect for each other. Leaf does get easily frustrated by Husky on numerous occasions, which results in him continuously abusing Husky in numerous occasions, most typically by slamming Husky's head against any object he can find, or stuffing his mouth with socks. However, Leaf does seem to value Husky quite a lot and will get mortified and start to panic whenever Husky is in danger, like when he was incapacitated during their chapter of The Cipher Crusade, when he lost Husky after their powers were cut by the Master during Showdown With Destiny, or when Husky was captured by Xavier during The Cipher Crusade 2: Beyond Good and Evil. Likewise, Husky values Leaf quite a bit as well, even referring to Leaf as a hero on numerous occasions including Fightingleaf and the Yellow Brick Road or Kid Movie Ninja: The Lego Movie. In short, the two value each other quite a bit and while they don't always show it, can't imagine their lives without each other.

Rugburn: Leaf and Husky first met Rugburn when working for the Master. Although they only tolerated each other at best because they served The Master, after being reunited in The Cipher Crusade, they have soon become good friends (or as friendly as Leaf can ever be towards anybody). Rugburn is one of Leaf and Husky's most trusted allies and have acted in a begrudging friendly rivalry, even if Husky might brush Rugburn off at times, Leaf himself acknowledges how helpful Rugburn actually is, like the many occasions where Rugburn has to reign them in whenever they may be acting too cynical or too violent, showing that Rugburn is among the few to be able to get through to Leaf. They can get frustrated with one another at times however, due to their different personalities, most notably seen in Fightingleaf and The Yellow Brick Road. Rugburn is usually the first person Leaf turns to in order to fight enemies, mostly The Master, except when Leaf and Husky are working with The Crusaders, implying that Leaf sees Rugburn as one of the most powerful allies he knows. Rugburn also helps Leaf in his reviews by filming them and retrieving movies (most of which are Sonic The Hedgehog related, naturally).

Professor Cabbage: Leaf and Husky first met Cabbage when working with the Master. They usually ask for Cabbage on scientific advice, like when they asked for his help when Sean transformed into a fox, or when they temporarily shorted out their Shiningleaf transformation from using it so often. Many times Leaf and Husky blast Cabbage with their Awesomeness Energy, using him as their resident punching bag, but they never try to kill him. Leaf appears to trust Cabbage very much, as it was shown in Fightingleaf and the Yellow Brick Road that Cabbage knew his full background, or how Cabbage was the only one who was let inside or knew the full extent of what Leaf meant when he was "Powering Down" during Crusaders Adventures: "Homecoming". In the end, while Leaf and Husky tend to brush Cabbage off as they do most people, they truly understand how valuable he is as a friend and ally.

Jerry Jay: It is unknown when exactly Leaf and Husky met Jerry Jay, as Jerry Jay never worked for the Master, but they have since trusted him as a part of their inner circle. He has proved that he has great potential to them many times in the past by helping him out in their adventures, like when he helped defeat The Master in Dark Oz by fueling them and Rugburn with The Light (or "Righteousness Energy" as it was called at the time), and when he assisted in rescuing Prof. Cabbage from The Congregation of Fear in Crusaders Adventures Episode 11: "Bird of Prey." It's also been shown that Jerry is far more useful in spirit than he is physically, like when he talked to Leaf about why he loves playing the flute so much, and how Leaf and Husky don't have to make videos if they don't like doing it anymore during Fightingleaf and the Yellow Brick Road, even if he was being subtly manipulated by the Master. This showed that he is one of the other characters that can get to Leaf on a mental level that others cannot, thanks to his optimistic spirit. He also has his been given permission to do his own series of videos on Leaf's channel, like playing Pokeflute versions of many of the songs from the Pokemon series of video games, as well as his own let's plays of many video games, showing that Leaf trusts Jerry to do these. In the Gotta Review Em' All video on the Pokemon movie "Destiny Deoxys", Leaf even trusted Jerry to do the video, even implying that Jerry would be trusted to do the rest of his reviews, only to later say that he was just kidding.

Sean: Sean is one of the people that Leaf trusts most outside of his inner circle. Much like how Jerry's own optimistic spirit can resonate with Leaf at times, Sean is able to do the same. While Husky was more uncertain, Leaf trusted that Sean could handle the Master during the events of Counterplay, showing that he trusted Sean's abilities, which would later extend to the way he was willing to assist Sean on numerous occasions like obtaining the Internet Code during The Cipher Crusade, or how he assisted in systematically eliminating the 26 Society in Crusader Adventures Episode 04: "The Roxwell Experiment". A good example of the trust and respect that Leaf and Sean have for each other was shown in during the Lady Noir Act of Crusader Adventures, when Sean was willing to protect and rescue Leaf after being returned to his hometown, which caused Leaf to be utterly thrown in response. Leaf was also willing to chase after and stop Lady Noir in a fit of revenge after Sean sacrificed himself to save Leaf. In short, Leaf seems to respect Sean and see a lot in him, more than most people.

Doctor Menace: Leaf and Husky presumably met Doctor Menace sometime after Sean recruited him for the team. Since then, the two have remained friends and valued allies of the group. Usually they both make cameos in their videos, making snarky comments to each other, Menace's eccentric personality bouncing off of Leaf's usually calm and collected straight-man routine. The two were also the ones to first meet future Crusaders member Alari Kuso and considered her as a possible future member for the team. One of the other things that they share with one another is the fact that they are among the few capable of breaking the 4th wall, resulting in numerous exchanges that often leave Sean just confused.

Connor Faraday: Much like Menace, Leaf and Husky presumably met Connor sometime after Sean and Menace recruited him to the team. Since then, Leaf and Husky have viewed Connor as a valuable member of the team, as seen in the fights against Lady Noir, Johnathan Discorde, and Xavier. Husky seems to quite enjoy Connor's presence thanks to the fact that he is another wolf on the team.

Alari Kuso: Leaf and Husky did not have much trust for Alari at first, feeling that there was too much they did not know about her, and too much they felt she was not telling them, even brushing off her numerous attempts to prove how much she idolized him. Later, however, in The Cipher Crusade: Beyond Good and Evil, he did have enough trust to share his identity with her and the rest of the Crusaders allies, presumably able to vouch for her help after their past encounters. Although, it's safe to assume that he still hadn't taken up her request to train under him.

'''MD/Mr. Director''': Leaf and Husky first met MD when reviewing Alvin and The Chipmunks: Chipwrecked, when they "commandeered their lives" for the review, in return for later helping MD and his friends escape the base they'd invaded. They both acted rough towards each other, as either side were under their own strenuous circumstances at the time, although Leaf and Husky helped MD in his mission, claiming they would see him again. Which they did later in The Cipher Crusade: Beyond Good and Evil, trusting him with his identity. MD would later appear again to warn Leaf of the Kid Movie Apocalypse, knowing he would be the only one capable of stopping the oncoming storm.

Stephanie Basinger: Leaf and Husky had no real connection with Stephanie during the early adventures with the Crusaders, save for her being around during the fightingVibraniumleafProductions crossover, or the review of Birdemic 2. That is, until Xavier took Husky and reduced Leaf into Connan Bell. From there, Stephanie and Connan appeared to act as crutches for each other during their dark time, with Stephanie even recognizing that Connan was not the same as Leaf, and was instead a different person entirely. In the end, Connan seemed to trust and confide in Stephanie, even trusting her as the first person to tell his real name to.

Enemies:
The Master: The Master is Fightingleaf and Husky's ultimate enemy. They hate the Master for everything that he's done to ruin Leaf and Husky's lives and controlling them for as long as he had. Every time the Master is alive, Leaf and Husky become outright obsessed with finding him and putting a stop to him before he becomes a real threat, acknowledging just how powerful and evil he truly is, getting frustrated and angered every time the other Crusaders downplay how dangerous he is, even if they have defeated him numerous times. However, with the time that has passed, this feeling of paranoia seems to have calmed as Leaf and Husky have made no indication they've directly looked for the Master even after he's been resurrected and is working alongside Zeth Zamura.

Leaf's Father: If there is one enemy that Leaf and Husky seem to hate more than even the Master, it is Leaf's Father. Leaf's Father is one of the only enemy that has truly gotten to Fightingleaf on a personal level, causing him to lose focus and go into a homicidal rage during their fight in Dark Oz. It is his connection to his father that caused Connan Bell to forget his own identity and create his Fightingleaf identity in order to separate himself from his father, thanks to his father murdering his entire family and nearly killing Husky as well, resulting in them making their deal with the Master. It is this hatred that is the only feeling they have with Leaf's Father, nothing more.

Randall: For the longest time, Leaf and Husky merely saw Randall as another mindless servant of the Master and a minor villain to overcome, but it is during the chapter of Cipher Crusade 2: Beyond Good and Evil, "The Way of the Awesome" where Connan got more respect for the villain, seeing how he was so deadset certain that they could regain Awesomeness Energy after training. While he honestly brushed off the idea, it turns out that Randall was right, albeit slightly. While Connan/Leaf still views Randall as a villain, it appears there is more of a respect for him now, although that may have just been due to their mutual alliance against Xavier.

Lady Victoria Noir: Another servant of the Master, Lady Noir had a powerful hatred for Leaf because of how he killed the Master. Leaf and Husky were repeatedly infuriated and filled with rage by Lady Noir thanks to her repeated taunts and personal stabs at them by reminding them of the death of Leaf's family, which finally came to a head when she presumably killed Sean. He seemed to trust Menace's method of removing her by merely sending her into a panic, however, instead of choosing to kill her. Ever since, Leaf has never mentioned her.

The Persona: At first, Leaf and Husky had no idea who the Persona was, merely being enraged by them at their repeated jabs at Leaf's identity. At first, Connan/Leaf was ready to declare him as a perversion, until he was convinced to accept him as a part of himself. Considering the nature of the Persona, it was more like Leaf/Connan was dealing with a part of himself instead of a new enemy, forced to embrace everything that they didn't like about themselves.

Zeth Zamura: Leaf and Husky never truly took Zeth as a personal villain, but viewed them as a real threat based on what Sean had reported about him in his control of The 26 Society. This feeling seemed to persist during the events of Game Over and his later return during the Crusaders' review of Birdemic 2: The Resurrection, especially in the way Zeth was now allied with the Master. Overall, Leaf and Husky seem to know that Zeth is a real threat that should not be ignored, even helping the Crusaders take down the Society before it could persist even without its leader.

Trivia:
• Despite being one of the most mysterious and secretive members of The Crusaders team, oddly enough we know the most about his backstory out of all The Crusaders members.
