Chapter 7: Finish the Fight


Luan's eyes lit up like a Christmas tree. Luna was right in front of her. In front of her sisters. It was truly awesome. It might have been enough to move her to tears. The jokester rushes her rock-star sister.

"I've been so worried about you!" Luan said. She was holding on to her so tight, It was like Luna was a new puppy.

"Missed you too sis..But you're gonna pop me like a balloon." Luna replied tapping her sister's shoulder. She was released and instantly dropped to her knees. Her body still didn't recover from getting hit by a car. Lori noticed this quickly and asked what had happened. Luna was reluctant to tell her however.

"It doesn't matter right now, We need to find Lincoln and Lynn." She insisted. Lori shook her head. She didn't understand why she would tell her but she didn't wanna push the envelope.

Leni stopped Luna in her tracks. "You're clearly hurt. We need to get you to an hospital." But Luna wasn't going to comply. A huge argument became apparent if nobody stepped in quickly. It just so happened to be Lucy to deliver the news.

"Hey. You all should be glad she's here. Who knows what could have happened if we didn't." She said.

And she's right. Nobody wanted to think what could have happened. All that matters is Luna is well enough to speak.

Luna started to stretch again. The sweatshirt with a skull on it was shredded in different places. It was a shame to see this, Because it was one of her favorites.
As she took a long look at all of her sisters, She could feel them literally staring at her She knew they were concerned, But it was creepy regardless. If there was one person she wanted to clear the situation to, It was to Luan. She was the one Luna wanted to see as soon as she saw them. She also felt she owed Luan an apology.
She did fail on her promise and it seems cruel to just leave her out after what happened.

"I'll be back. I gotta talk to Luan for a little anyways." She told her sisters and pulled the jokester away from everyone.


Nightmare charged at Lynn and Lincoln. Lynn closed her eyes and re-focused. It wasn't going to be nearly as easy for her to shrug this guy off. Too strong for that. If they were gonna beat him, They needed to stick together and fast. Lincoln didn't get the memo though as Lynn has to pull him away.

"Lincoln, We're gonna have to get defensive. Do you know any stances?" Lynn asked quickly.

"Um...No! I only came to give you cover." He replied.

Lynn face-palmed. Difficult just turned into impossible. Nightmare turns towards the girl.

"You're wasting our time if this is what you really have to help you out." He howled. "I haven't seen a more unworthy opponent in my life."

"Hey! You don't know what your messing with." Lincoln argued back.

"You two aren't nearly enough to stop me." Nightmare looked bored.

"Well then, Three's company." A voice came from behind. The duo looked to find Rina stepping in. Lincoln flushed red at the sight of her. Lynn shrugged.

Nightmare, of course, didn't care nearly as much. This was all a big way of robbing him of his time. If anything, He should be the one who was robbing people of things.

"Are you three gonna try and mangle me or what?" He said with a yawn.

Rina wasted no time in rushing for a punch. The man laughed and trips her up. Lincoln rushes in and grabs his ankles. While trying to shake him off, Lynn kicks Nightmare in the back of his left knee. He drops to one knee and tosses Lincoln into a bus seat.

"Tim. If you aren't busy just sitting around, I could use you right about now." Nightmare groans.

"I thought you had it under control." Tim says sarcastically.

"I will END you if you don't do something!" threatens Nightmare.

Tim sighs and forces Lynn on the ground. Lincoln gets up to move to her, but Nightmare grabs him by the collar and attempts to hang him across a railing in the bus.

In Desperation, Rina takes Lynn's Bat and swings it with full might towards Nightmare's right kneecap. Suddenly, the big and bad man found himself on the ground swearing up a storm. Lincoln frees himself and looks around for something to restrict Nightmare's mobility. "Think" He whispered to himself while scanning the room.
Quickly his eyes hit the door of the bus.

"That's it!, The doors will stop him! "But how am I supposed to get him stuck?" he thought.

That's when one of Lisa's annoying facts came to him.

"Even the slightest damage to the Achilles tendon, Can limit someone's ability to walk normally. It's a muscle in your legs."

What was there to use? Lynn's bat wasn't going to guarantee enough damage to stop Nightmare from walking, And it would most likely take multiple swings there, And by then he can get up and break the wooden bat. There wasn't anything else around that could help.

Unless...

Lincoln took a strong look at one of the firearms in the drivers seat. He takes a deep breath and picks up a pistol from the pile.

Slowly he turns around and aims it straight at Nightmare's right calf.

*BANG*


"So that's what happened.." Luna said, hanging her head.

Luan didn't know what to tell her. She had so much excitement to see her sister again. Is it time to fight now?

"We should take you to the hospital for sure then." She began.

"It's not that bad Lu!" Luna switched to defensive. But Luan wasn't buying what Luna was selling.

"Not that bad? You're covered in blood!" Luan replied, putting a hand on her sister's shoulders. Luna swats it away.

"You know me, A accident like this isn't going to stop me..plus if I go to the hospital, Mom and Dad are gonna find out what's going on and we're all dead."

Luan was hesitant to answer that right away. Luna was right, But she was also wrong. Yes their parents would grounded them for life if they found out Lincoln and Lynn were gone. But her health trumped everything, Including a search.

"Luna, get the help first." Luan frowned.

Luna shook her head. "I can't do that knowing Linc and Lynn are out there alone."

A silence occurred. Not a word spoken. Just two sisters looking at each other, their eyes deadlocked in a mexican standoff with neither one backing down soon.

Luna's stance was strong, But she knows how Luan gets when things move away from funny. She thought that finding the lost siblings and bringing them home would make her feel better about everything.. If anything it tore her apart in the inside. She might rock on the outside, But her feelings were big like her heart. She hated being away from her family, even if it was a day and a half. Besides, Fighting wouldn't help anything.

"Fine.. I'll get the help." She sighed.


Everybody was dead silent.

Lynn and Rina stared immediately at Lincoln.

"No freaking way..." Nightmare struggled to find the words.

Lincoln had aimed perfectly. The bullet had landed deep into Nightmare's calf. Maybe not exactly hitting the tendon, But He hit it enough to cause damage.

"BOSS!" Tim yelled on his way towards Nightmare. Worried, He kicked Lincoln in the face due to fear of being shot. This knocked Lincoln out and forced the pistol out of his hands. Tim picked up and aimed it directly at Rina.

"MOVE AND I'LL SHOOT!" He panicked.

Suddenly the door busted open. Lynn was right. The bus driver had tipped the police off about the situation.

"FREEZE!" The cops yelled. Nightmare looked all around the bus. More and more cops surrounded them. He knew this was it.

"It's over Tim..Drop the gun" Nightmare muttered. Tim looked at the cops and then over to Rina and slowly placed it on the ground.
