Okay, we're at the pivotal end of the middle-series finale for L-UMA, so I guess it's okay for me to take a little break in order to work a bit more on the episode that are still unfinished, right?

Because right now, the next episode is only partially finished. And It'll also help me polish some things, so, yay, win-win situation.

But before we get to the good stuff, let's answer some reviews:

1) Nobody245: Take cover, 'cause we got some bombs coming!

2) ChernoMan: Again, only going to reply to your latest review.

* Thanks, it wasn't that hard to make, but I'm still proud of how it came out.

* Yeah...

* He could still try to make you "bond" with him even as a mat, though...

* May I ask what exactly did I do that made you angry?

* I'll try to keep that in mind, thanks.

* Yeah, kinda should've told everyone about it, Leni.

* Maybe this chapter will help you get clearer thoughts?

And now, to the chapter!


Back where we left off, Lincoln and Lisa had finished explaining what happened to them that caused them to go missing, consequently revealing that Leni had helped them to an extent, and that she knew where they had gone during that time.

However, that was the least of the shocking revelations for the Loud family. The far bigger shock came when Lori said:

"We were worried sick for you..."

Lori's fist shook, and the sisters slowly revealed their furious glares as she continued:

"We literally couldn't sleep at night, because we were thinking about what could've happened to you..."

Leni frowned and lowered her head, her hair obscuring her eyes as she walked back and disappeared into the shadows...

"And now... you're telling us... that you and Lisa... were with us all along..."

Lori lifted her head, flashing a glare, and revealing her eyes were glowing golden as she screamed:

"And you literally never told us about it!?"

The eldest sister threw her spear at Lincoln in rage, only for the boy to casually dodge it and quip:

"Be careful there, Lori, your Eclipse is showing."

The girl turned to see a mirror, and saw her eyes glowing yellow, causing her to flinch and turn back as her eyes suddenly turned back to their normal color.

However, a new thing to worry about came when Lynn, Lucy, Lana, and Lola immediately lunged at Lincoln, and the oldest Loud spotted their eyes glowing golden as well.

Not only that, but she then saw Leni was nowhere to be seen...

At least she calmed down a little when she saw Luna and Luan were standing still, their eyes still their normal color.

"I can't say I didn't think this would happen," Luan remarked, scratching the back of her head. "Not that Lincoln and Lisa would be the enemy, but that we wouldn't like the truth."

"But what's worse is that Leni knew about it, and she didn't tell us anything!" Luna added, stomping the ground. "We need to find her and get her to explain herself!"

"I agree, but we can't literally leave Lily and her group to face off the duo alone," Lori answered, looking back at the quartet attacking Lincoln. "We have no idea what Lincoln and Lisa are capable of individually; Leaving Lily and her friends to face them together would be unfair."

"Then let's leave those four to deal with Lincoln, and the other team deals with Lisa," Luna suggested. "Meanwhile, the three of us will search for Leni and confront her!"

Lori hummed. "That does sound like a good idea-"

Suddenly, the team of Lana, Lola, Lucy, and Lynn came crashing at Lori's feet, looking exhausted as they stood up and caught their breath.

"Dang it, nothing we do hurts him, let alone hit him!" Lynn growled.

"Well, if you four can't deal with him, and I doubt all seven of us can do it, then I guess the only option left is to search for Leni together," Lori sighed. "We'll just have to literally hope Lincoln doesn't hurt Lily too badly."

"I'm not going to hurt her."

The team flinched and turned around to see Lincoln, smiling wide as he clarified:

"You heard me: I'm not going to hurt Lily. That's what Lisa's supposed to do, so, if you want me to help protect her-"

"Don't lay a damn finger on anyone!" Lucy suddenly snapped.

"Yeah, after what you revealed, you have no right to act like you're on our side!" Lynn corroborated. "Just stay there, and don't do anything!"

Luan frowned. "Lucy... Lynn..."

The boy frowned as well, and lowered his head. "I understand."

With that, the sisters began their search for Leni, with Clyde looking back at Lincoln one last time before he joined them.

As for Lincoln, he turned around and watched as Lisa looked at the trio of Kat, Mollie, and Joy, whose cubes were slowly covered in darkness as the scientist smirked with delight.

"I believe it's time to put an end to this court case," Kat stated as she aimed her hammer at the girl and said:

"Lisa Loud, you and your brother, Lincoln Loud, are thereby accussed of refusing to acknowledge the consequences of this experiment, being unsympathetic to the people who were worried for you all the time you were missing, living among said people without bothering to reveal your true identities, manipulation of the truth and responsibility for not only the Shadows that plague Royal Woods, but also the Eclipses."

Kat narrowed her eyes and swung her hammer to her side as she said:

"How do you plead?"

Lisa smirked.

"Guilty as charged."

The trio charged forward as their Lux Aura uniforms turned into Umbra Auras uniforms, just like the ones Girl Jordan had, but with different highlights.

Nevertheless, they attacked the toddler relentlessly: Mollie flapped her wings, and Kat and Joy swung their weapons in unison, but each of their attacks were either blocked or dodged by the Eclipsa Queen nonchalantly.

And as this happened, Lily stood in place and watched, as the truth set in.

"You... did what?"

This caused Girl Jordan to turn to the girl and put a hand on her shoulder as she said:

"Well, there was always the chance that the truth of what happened to Lincoln and your sister wouldn't be pleasent."

Girl Jordan glared at the Eclipse master. "I just didn't expect them to be so dang casual about it."

Lily lowered her head. "Gemini and Divisu were Lincoln and Lisa all along... and they created everything we're facing... for me?"

"Don't be ridiculous," Girl Jordan stated, getting the Lavender Lux Aura's attention. "If they really had done this with you in mind, then they would've bothered to think about the possibility you wouldn't like it."

Lincoln flinched at the statement, which was something that Lily, Girl Jordan, and Mrs. Johnson immediately noticed.

"I'm gonna go see if I can open us an exit," Mrs. Johnson stated as she cracked her knuckles. "You two try whatever you can to beat Mr. and Mrs. Loud!"

Girl Jordan nodded with determination, while Lily did so hesitantly, and the redheaded woman literally spun away moments later.

This caught Lincoln's attention of course, but before he could chase after her, Girl Jordan aimed and shot an arrow at him, with the boy being consumed by the explosion as she exclaimed:

"That's for making me worry about you, jerk!"

Lincoln, however, came out of the explosion unscathed and ran away, prompting Girl Jordan to chase after him as she shouted at Lily:

"Remember what I told you, and use it to your advantage!"

Realizing the possibility that she could've been used, Lily nodded, clenched her fists, turned to the fight between Lisa and the trio, and shouted:

"H-Hey, listen!"

But the fight continued.

"Listen!"

Same result.

Eventually, Lily grew exasperated, so she took out her mace and raised it as she yelled:

"I said, Listen!"

The Lavender Lux Aura slammed her mace down, using enough strength to not only crack the ground beneath her, but also cause the entire laboratory to shake, bringing a stop to everything: Lincoln and Girl Jordan's fight, Mrs. Johnson's attempt to create an exit, and Lisa's fight with the judgement trio.

Seeing as she had her attention, Lily yelled at Lisa:

"You and Lincoln never did this for me, did you?!"

The scientist fell silent and narrowed her eyes.

"The whole "we did this for Lily" was just a sham to cover up your real intentions, right?!" she continued. "You did this for yourselves! So you could feel like you're worth something, even if you endangered all of Royal Woods in the process!"

Lisa continued to refuse to give the girl a proper answer, which slowly began upsetting her.

"Lisa..."

Meanwhile, with the team...

"Answer me!"

Those words were shouted by Lori as she and the rest of the team found and approached Leni, who was standing on top of a chandelier.

Now where the heck the chandelier was supposed to be in the room, that was something to ponder for later.

"Leni, you have literally a lot to explain!" Lori added. "Don't make this harder for us, and give us some answers!"

Leni took a deep breath, and looking like she was on the verge of tears, said:

"You already got the answer to what happened to Lincoln and Lisa, and all that did was tick you off."

Then, the teenager turned to face the team and exclaimed:

"And now you want another set of answer that'll do nothing but tick you off some more?!"

"Hey, it's your fault for not telling us about this in the first place!" Lynn snapped, stomping the ground as Lucy added, "If you hadn't acted like a fool like always, you wouldn't be in this situation!"

"Oh really?" Leni glared at Lucy. "Well, if you had told everybody about the big event happening in this year, which Gemini told you about, we wouldn't be this situation either, right!?"

The goth took a couple steps back, as Lynn exclaimed, "That's besides the point!"

"Leni, please, listen to us," Clyde said as he took a couple steps forward. "We're not your enemies; We're your friends. We know you're not doing this because you want to-"

"Clyde, please, stop. Just... stop," Leni rubbed her temples. "How can you have the audacity to say you know I don't want to do this, when you're not even aware of just how far Lisa and Lincoln have gone to plan for everything?!"

Lori's eyes widened. "Lincoln and Lisa planned this ahead?"

"Planned ahead?! Every single thing you've done up to this point, everything you've said, everything you've thought, even everything you've thought about doing but didn't, has been something that Lincoln and Lisa have prepared a backup plan for!" Leni exclaimed, stomping the ground and causing the chandelier to move a bit. "You have no idea how terrifying it is to witness as the people who used to be your siblings calculate everything that could happen later in such a cold, emotionless way..."

Leni looked down and shed a couple tears. "Just as how you have no idea how painful it is to know they're like that because of you."

"Leni, all you did was create the plushies that eventually became Gemini and Divisu," Luna said. "As far as anybody knows, what happened that split them apart and caused Lincoln and Lisa-"

Finally, Leni wiped off her tears and yelled:

"Enough of this!"

Leni pulled a pose, and a dark aura surrounded her, causing the team to stop in shock as it then split from the girl, flew up, and morphed into a creature that looked similar to Leni, but with three pair of arms and eight eyes, not to mention small fangs at the edges of their mouth, and a circle behind her made of webbing.

"I, like, didn't want to use this until the project was finished," Leni remarked. "But you totes have forced my hand!"

The creature snapped her knuckles as Leni proclaimed:

"Prepare to be the first to face my Inner Demon, Arachne!"

- Inner Demon of Lies, Arachne -

"Great, another thing we got to worry about?" Lynn growled in exasperation. "First there's the Shadows, then the Eclipses, also maybe the Umbra Auras, and now Inner Demons?! Just how much dang stuff did Lincoln and Lisa create!?"

"That's not as important as how strong this thing is!" Luna stated, with most of the sisters nodding in agreement. "If Leni refused to use this, then it has to be something so strong as to serve as her last stand!"

Then she turned to Lori. "What do you think, Lori?!"

The light blue Lux Aura, however, looked blatantly unimpressed.

"That's such an unfitting face for this situation," Luan said, trying to hold back her laughter.

"What is it, Lori?" Lucy inquired. "We're facing something we haven't seen before, shouldn't you be a little bit more on-guard?"

"Guys," Lori said, getting everyone's attention. "It's literally a spider version of Leni."

Then they turned to see Leni, trying to maintain a tough look despite shaking violently, as the oldest sister added:

"Leni's afraid of spiders."

Clyde rolled his eyes. "I can attest to that."

"Oh, so that's the reason she didn't use that thing until now," Luan remarked. "That actually makes a lot of sense: I'd be reluctant to use a secret power within me if it looked like something I was afraid of."

Then, Lynn looked almost disappointed. "Then, it's not strong at all?"

The inner spirit, seemingly hearing the jock's insensitive words, flashed red glowing eyes and shot spider webs from her fingertips, trapping her in a webbed cage as she exclaimed:

"It's a strong one! It's totally a strong one!"

With her power now demonstrated, the rest of the team got into a battle stance, ready to fight their former ally.

Back with Lisa...

"Did you notice just now?"

That was the answer that the scientist gave the aged-up toddler, and the answer that got all eyes on her as she added:

"Lily, we love you. We really do. But if we were to wait for you to grow up before we asked you if you wanted to get involved, then it would be far too late: Everybody would've gone ahead with their lives, and Lincoln and I would've been left behind as the wasted spaces that amounted to nothing."

Lily summoned her mace and gripped it tightly as the scientist continued:

"Of course, you would never understand how it hurts to be the only one in the house with your level of intelligence."

Then, Lisa turned to Lincoln as she added:

"Or the only one in the house without anything to their name."

Lisa turned back to Lily and finished:

"You would've grown up and joined the rest of our sisters in becoming something far more than just the youngest Loud, while Lincoln and I would rot and be forgotten. Going through the project, while using you as a cover to make it seem more noble, was the only one to gain meaning to our existence-"

"Shut up!"

Lily leaped forward and slammed her mace right at Lisa's face, only for the scientist to block it with dark arms and hold it back as Lily snapped:

"Stop making your actions sound more noble than they are! Stop making you and Lincoln sound like the biggest victims! You're nothing more than the bad guys!"

Lisa shot the dark arms, sending Lily flying away before she then turned to the judgement trio and Girl Jordan, with her eyes glowing golden moments after. With this, Girl Jordan and the judgement trio felt a headache for a little while, until it stopped...

And they stood upright, without the ability to move their muscles.

"Girl Jordan, Kat, Joy, and Mollie," Lisa started, all eyes falling on her as she pointed at Lily and proclaimed, "Shoot your darkness at the Lux Aura, and let her be consumed by it!"

"Shoot their what?!" Lily shouted with a mixture of shock and confusion.

And then, the girl was bombarded with a barrage of arrows, followed by some gusts of wind, a hammer to the head, and a stick as well.

However, the thing that actually caught everyone's attention was that, in the spots where the arrows hit her, Lily's body began being covered in a dark matter, with it going slow enough to ask Lisa:

"How did you do it? How are you able to control Girl Jordan, and her friends like that?!"

"I'm the Master of the Eclipses, dear sister," Lisa sternly answered. "The Umbra Auras are extensions of those Eclipses. They're part of my domain."

"That doesn't explain how you can just take control of their minds and change their bodysuits for full body armor!" Lily pointed out. "How-"

"Ugh, would you stop being so dang inquisitive all the time!?" Lisa snapped, stomping the ground. "Just allow yourself to be consumed by the darkness and despair and all that stuff already!"

Lily's eyes widened in shock as the scientist then added:

"Get it through your head: We used you! Lincoln and I both! You had a purpose in our scheme, and now that it's done, there's no more need for you to hold on to this stupid thing called hope!"

Lily's vision progressively grew blurry as the darkness started consuming her.

"So fall to despair and give up on everything! And maybe then, you'll see things from our perspectives."

And at last, the darkness completely covered the girl's form, with Girl Jordan and the judgement trio shedding tears, with their faces still frozen in a stern, neutral look.

"Well, what's done is done," Lisa sighed. "She should give up on everything and turn into an Umbra Aura any minute now."

Girl Jordan then slowly turned around, and glared at the dark scientist, who simply snapped her fingers and forced her to look forward as she hissed:

"Oh, don't even try to give me that look, missy! I got you under control; You're now being the puppet you were always meant to be. So sit there, and wait for Lily to join our ranks."

Despite being completely covered in darkness, however, Lily's form didn't change, nor did she gain a peculiar aura or mist after a while. In fact, it seemed like nothing was happening at all.

Until a beam of light came out of her...

And then another, and another, and another, and one more that actually struck Girl Jordan...

Until finally, the girl clenched her fists, spread her arms wide and screamed as the darkness covering her was extinguished, and she revealed a new form.

It was similar to Mrs. Johnson and Girl Jordan, in that it was a knight armor that covered her body except for her head. However, instead of being red, or black with golden highlights, it was silver, with golden highlights all around it.

And this was an outfit that got a reaction out of Lisa. One of shock, to be exact.

"I-Impossible... there's no way you could've achieved that form yet!" the master of eclipses stated, taking a couple steps back. "I mean, there was always the possibility of you achieving it, but-"

Shortly after that, Girl Jordan narrowed her eyes, and managing to move her arms slightly, she broke away from Lisa's control long enough to shoot an arrow at her leg, causing her control over the rest of the trio to come off as well.

And as she hit the ground, the judgement trio and Girl Jordan aimed their weapons at her.

"Alright, you've had your shot, now's our turn to ask questions!" Girl Jordan hissed, leaning the arrow closer to Lisa's face as she asked, "Now tell us, what the heck is going on with Lily!?"

"There's an intermediary state between a Lux Aura and an Umbra Aura: A state that's not completely filled with hope, but it's not been completely devoured by despair either," Lisa explained. "But it was only a hypothetical state Lincoln and I dubbed..."

Lisa turned back at Lily, who got ready to slam her mace down again.

"The Twilight Aura."

The girl slammed the mace, and the resulting hit caused the entire laboratory to shake, almost making everyone drop to the ground.

This included Leni and the team, the former who caught a glimpse of what was going on down before she snapped her fingers and made Arachne return to her, saying:

"Well, if that's not a signal to get out of here, then I, like, don't know what is."

And then, just before Leni could run away, her leg was wrapped with some strings that came from one of the members of the team.

"For real, Luan? First a rubber chicken, then an array of pranks, and now strings?! Pick one single weapon, will you!?" Leni snapped before she turned around and yelled, "And also, those are, like, supposed to be my weapon!"

But the one who summoned the strings wasn't Luan, and in fact, it wasn't any of the Loud siblings.

It was Clyde.

"Oh, well, I guess that's a little bit better," Leni narrowed her eyes. "Stil, I don't appreciate the fact someone other than me can use strings."

"Leni, whatever's going on, we're not letting you get away!" Clyde exclaimed.

Leni shook her head and took a deep breath before she snapped her fingers, trapping everyone in string-like webbing as she stood up, broke Clyde's strings and said:

"Save that for when you're not facing someone who has more experience with her powers than you."

And with that said, the girl then wrapped everyone inside a large ball of yawn, and began swinging them around as Lincoln appeared with Lisa, and blinded everyone with a flash of light as he grabbed the girl and fled.

"I told you that Lily would unlock the Twilight Aura state," Lincoln stated as he helped the scientist stand up. "If there's someone in our family who could've done it, it was her-"

"Oh shut up, will you!" Lisa snapped as she grabbed and took off the arrow. "That must've been a fluke! Nothing more!"

Then, she looked around. "Where's Leni?"

The duo turned around, and saw Leni throwing the large ball of strings at the wall, with them barely dodging the incoming ball before it crashed through it, giving the trio a way to escape.

As for Lily and everyone else, the girl went back to her Lux Aura form and nearly collapsed, until Girl Jordan ran to her side and helped her stand up.

"H-Huh? What happened?" Lily asked, rubbing her head.

"You helped us, that's what happened," Girl Jordan answered, gently helping the girl stand up. "Now the only thing left to do is get out of here."

Lily frowned. "But what about Lincoln, Lisa, and Leni?"

Girl Jordan put a hand on Lily's shoulder. "Right now, what matters is that we get to live another day. We'll just have to give them their just desserts another time."

Lily sadly nodded in agreement, and seeing Mrs. Johnson had destroyed a wall already, she and the woman jumped through the hole and fell down on the ground next to the now-untied Loud sisters and Clyde, with Girl Jordan and the judgement trio leaving soon after.

Once out, the team took a moment to rest as they looked at the sky, to see the laboratory now resembled some kind of mix-matched building, which was propelled by some kind of apparatus at the bottom, with some rockets attached to the side.

Finally, it resembled a rabbit's head, for some reason.

"Well, that was... certainly something," Luna said, scratching the back of her head. "Can't say it was what I was hoping we'd get, though."

"So, to recap, not only did we find out Lincoln and Lisa are the ones that started this madness, but we also lost Leni, who's decided to join the liar side!" Lynn growled, folding her arms. "Not only that, but they also have something planned for the end of the year, which will definitely put all of Royal Woods in danger!"

"You forgot to mention we got more Umbra Auras to worry about," Lily remarked, leaning against a tree with her arms folded. "The girls with Girl Jordan turned into Umbra Auras after Lisa explained everything."

"I'm assuming they joined Girl Jordan too, because I don't see her or them anywhere here," Luan said as she looked around. "I just hope they don't decide to attack us right after we found out all of this."

Lily lowered her head and frowned, which caught everyone's attention.

"Lily, if you're thinking about the idea that Lincoln and Lisa did this for you, then don't do that," Lori said as she walked to her youngest sister's side and put a hand on her sholder. "They literally admitted that they were only thinking about themselves."

"That doesn't change the fact that they used me as a cover for all that!" Lily snapped, tears appearing at the edge of her eyes as she added, "I trusted Lincoln when he was Gemini! I believed that whatever had happened to them, that they wouldn't be related to what was going on!"

Lily frowned and calmed down. "And now, it turns out they really are behind everything that's happened."

The girl looked away. "What's worse is that they dragged Leni into this, too."

"Yeah, we lost an ally, gained an enemy, not our best day," Luan remarked. "But hey, we should try to stay a little positive: At least we managed to get out of there alive, right?"

Everybody nodded in agreement, and after a little bit more resting, they all went their separate ways and returned home, with Lily taking one more look at the building before she left.

Meanwhile, with Girl Jordan and the Judgement Trio...

The archer, the jackhammer, the one with the stick, and the literal wingwoman were resting at the park, the latter three taking their time to analyze their situation while Girl Jordan took her time to look at the laboratory, which could be seen from afar.

"So, it looks like we're all part of the same problem now, huh?" Mollie remarked, folding her arms. "We began as Lux Auras, and now, we're Umbra Auras. We'll have to go into hiding, won't we?"

"We have no choice," Kat stated, shaking her head. "Almost everybody in our class is a Lux Aura: Trying to go back there in our current state would be suicidal."

"I knew allowing Girl Jordan to come with us was a bad idea," Joy sighed. "We wouldn't be Umbra Auras right now if we had just gone core hunting on our own!"

"Hey, blaming the girl isn't fair for her: It was Lincoln and his scientist sister who caused this entire mess," Mollie stated, throwing a disapproving look at her friend. "Girl Jordan is as much of a victim as we are."

"And besides, there's no reason to believe we wouldn't have encountered Divisu if we hadn't met and grouped with Girl Jordan," Kat added, with Mollie nodding in agreement. "At best, she'd tell us and we wouldn't bring her, thus not having someone who knows how Divisu looked like, and at worst, we would've been completely unprepared for when that thing attacked."

"And you don't have to attack anybody."

The trio turned to look at Girl Jordan, who was the one who said that.

"All you wanted to do was help protect Royal Woods, right? We can still give that a shot," the girl explained, looking at the sky as she added, "And as someone once said to me: Just because you have the power to destroy Royal Woods, doesn't mean you have to."

"And what if we can't do that?" Joy asked. "What if, no matter how hard we try, we can't do anything but help destroy the city, huh?"

"Then I'll find a way to absorb your darkness into myself, so you can go back to being Lux Auras," Girl Jordan answered with no hesitation. "I know it's a baffling idea, but it's the least I can do."

With that said, Girl Jordan stood up and left the trio alone as she headed home, leaving them to exchange looks and think about what she said.

Finally, with Lincoln, Lisa, and Leni...

The trio were at an unknown part of the laboratory, the former two looking at a progress bar connected to a giant egg-shaped machine, holding whatever project they had been working on for months.

"It seems the project is going smoothly," Lisa remarked with slight satisfaction. "I might even get away with saying it could be finished before the end of the year: Probably a month or two before, to be exact."

"You won't, 'cause I'm pretty sure it'll only be finished by the end of the year: Rushing things has never worked out for anybody," Lincoln answered.

"Well, how about we ask our third wheel?" Lisa asked. "What do you think, Leni?"

The teenager walked towards the duo, stopped when she was close enough, and sternly asked:

"Are you two happy now? Our sisters know everything, the project can no longer be stopped, and we can't go back home and, like, face our family ever again!"

Lincoln and Lisa remained silent as they stared at the progress bar, which slowly started to fill up.

"We know we can't go back, and we know that after this is done, we may need to escape from Royal Woods," Lisa stated, looking firmly at the bar. "Or worse, put an end to everything, including our lives..."

"But, hey, at least nobody's redundant now, right?" Lincoln argued, with a shaky feel to his tone. "At least we all have a purpose, now."

"What purpose? To be lied to? Manipulated? Almost getting sick from all the concern we had for you, only to find out that it was for nothing?!" Leni asked, narrowing her eyes as she growled, "Do you really think that's a purpose our siblings are happy with?"

The duo fell silent, allowing Leni to continue:

"What's the Lux Auras and Squires' purpose? To be conscripted into a magical girl mess, just to survive the Shadows? Do you think any of them are happy with that?"

Lincoln lowered his head, almost as if the statement got to him, as Leni added:

"What about the Umbra Auras? What's their purpose? To be put through the wringer repeatedly until they snap and decide to take down everyone with them? Do you think they're happy with that?"

Normally it would be Lisa's turn to lower her head and look shaken by the statement. However, she kept her head high, seemingly ignoring the teenager's words.

This didn't stop Leni from babbling on:

"And what about our purpose? Is it to be liars, manipulators, and just all-around awful people just to feel like we mean something? To feel like we're not just redundant wasted space? Is that something you're happy with?"

This time, the statement struck, and Lisa lowered her head, allowing Leni to finish off the duo with:

"Because let me be very, like, blunt with you: I'm not happy with this. And from the looks of it, neither are you. At first, I thought this would be fun, but this has gone too far."

Leni turned around and walked away, angrily muttering:

"So far, in fact, I wouldn't be too surprised if everything bites you in the butt in the end."
