Chapter four: Sweet Rims (Part 1)

The cop cars were hot in pursuit. Every chance Lincoln turned, there were more and more police piling up on them. Odds were that with one mistake, The three of them would be caught within minutes. Lana knew this and began thinking of a plan.

"Do either of you know any shortcuts we can use to shake the police?"

Both Lincoln and October replied with a dishearting "No." Lana frantically searched around in the backseat for something useful. Besides glass and clothes that belong to October's brother, there was nothing truly useful to aid them at the moment. Lana thought harder until suddenly it dawned upon her.

"Hey October, Did your brother have a cell phone?"

"Yeah, he does. I've got it right here." October replied, taking the phone out of her pockets.

Lana signaled her to toss the phone back and caught it with ease. Quickly, she called home.

"Hello?"

"Luna?! It's Lana! We're gonna need some help!"

"Why? What's going on?!"

"No time to explain. Get Lisa on the phone please!"

Luna called to the young scientist, who quickly grabbed the phone.

"Lana? What happened?" Lisa spoke calmly.

"Police are on our tail! We found some new tires but we tripped an ala-"

Lana's words were inaudible as bullets fired from the cops were overriding her voice. Within seconds, Lisa ended the call and gathered Clyde and Lynn.

"What's going on?" Clyde and Lynn responded.

"It looks like Lincoln and Lana are in deep water. The cops are closing in on them, so I'll need you two to carry out my plan."

Clyde nodded. He would do anything for his best friend.

"What's the idea? Lynn asked."

"We are going over to a potential looting area and reporting a false looting crisis. This should take some of the cops off pursuit to focus on us. Once we notice some of them. I'll send Lana the location we're in to the number she used to contact us." Lisa explained.

"But what if the cops catch us?" Clyde nervously suggested.

"That's where I come in." Ronnie Ann chimed.

"I think the plan will work regardless of your involvement." Lisa sourly said.

"You need me Loud. After all, I think I have a right to be included." Ronnie Ann poked her.

Lynn stepped in front of Lisa. "You put one more hand on a Loud and you'll be a fish out of water."

"How about you try me?" Ronnie Ann said proudly.

"Oh, We can GO sister. I have blood to get back of Lincoln's anyways!" Lynn threatened.

"Girls please!" Clyde interrupted. "We're wasting valuable time to help Lincoln and Lana. Me and Ronnie Ann will cover one side of the area and Lynn can go with Lisa.
The more help we can get, the better results we may get. Now, how does that sound to everyone?"

All three girls frowned but agreed anyway.

"Okay then. Let's do it." Clyde said.

"Lisa just texted me a location. 22th Looper St." Lana declared.

"Where is that even?" Lincoln asked.

"I'll direct us, just focus on the-"

"FIRE!"

One of the policemen pull out a sniper rifle and unloaded a perfectly placed shot into the back of the Eclipse's right rear tire. The damage is enough to cause the car to spin out viciously as Lana and October scream as loud as possible. Any chance Lincoln had to save the car was completely done for, as the cop was able to fire another well-placed shot, this time into the left rear tire. The car immediately began to flip as Lincoln had gotten the car barely inside of an alley moments before the second shot. Once the car was finished flipping, he took a glance back at Lana, who had gotten extremely lucky. Himself along with October, were not as fortunate. Lincoln had cut his face along with his nose opening up again, while the passenger emergency airbag knocked October unconscious. Desperate to help October, Lana reached forward and popped the airbag with a shard of broken glass, while holding the albino girl away from the bag. She was still breathing, but it was at a soft rate.

"Lincoln! LINCOLN!" Lana shook her dazed brother. "We gotta get out!"

"Y...Yeah" Lincoln responded as he tried to force open his door but failed. The car was flipped upside down, So the combined forces of him and Lana weren't enough to do the trick. But then Lana remembered something important.

"Lincoln, stay back." She commanded. The boy watched as Lana pulled out a test tube with the label "DA" on it and poured the entire substance on the driver's seat door. Within thirty seconds, The door became nothing but ashes. Lincoln could only look in awe of his sister's craftiness.

"I borrowed this from Lisa but I forgot to give it back." Lana explained as she crawled out of the car. Lincoln grabbed October and did the same.

"Any way you think we could get those tires? I'd hate to just leave them here." Lincoln asked.

"No good bro, stuff's empty." Lana declined, shaking the empty tube. Bone dry.

Without the substance to get inside of the trunk, the two decided it was best to leave the tires.

"WE KNOW YOU'RE IN THERE, PLEASE PUT YOUR HANDS IN THE SKY!" A voice echoed. The cops were surely at the entrance of the alley.

"Lana here!" Lincoln lifted his sister onto a gate that was close by. Lana was hesitant, but eventually made it to the other side. October would be next, as Lincoln climbed the gate with her on his back. When he reached the top, he gave October the best lift he could and Lana slowly laid her on her side of the gate. Finally, Lincoln forced his way over the gate, but his footing slipped and landed hard on his back.

*THUD*

"What was that?" One of the officers piped up.

Lincoln motioned for Lana to place October on his back so they could crawl into a safe place. Lana agreed and helped hold October, as the three crawled their way to a small blacked out area just a couple of inches away. Once they were there. Lincoln tried to stretch his back the best he could, although the pain never subsided.

"So what do we do now?" Lana asked.

"Now..We wait.." Lincoln replied a bit nervously.
