Spells and Louds
Chapter 120: Different controversies
(Royal Woods DMV)
Luna and Peter are both waiting outside of the building.
"You think she passed?" asked Peter.
"She's your daughter dude, don't you have a little faith in her?" said Luna.
"Sorry. Just concerned is all, the first time I had a driving test I nearly killed the instructor" replied Peter.
Luna had no idea what to say about that. Then they see the doors open.
"Is it her?!" asked Luna.
Instead they just see Dana and Becky high five holding their drivers license. "Wait what?!" said Peter.
The two teens notice Luna and Peter. "Hey guys" said Becky.
"Hey there Dana and Becky, I didn't know you two were getting your drivers license's" said Luna.
"And you both passed" said Peter.
"Well it took two days to study and practice" said Dana. "And eventually we passed together! I can't wait to tell my rents" said Becky.
"Same here" replied Dana. She then turned to Luna and Peter. "So, let me guess. Sam is getting her license today?"
"You guys ran into her in there?" asked Peter.
"We did. She looked nervous at first, but then we told her to calm down and focus on the task at hand" replied Becky.
"She got a huge confidence boost after that" replied Dana.
"Thanks guys, Sam is really excited to make it today" replied Luna. "And in case something bad happens, these guys are here" replied Peter who is pointing to the tiger tank with Leon and Sergei on top with hoses and first aid kits.
"Hey girls" replied Leon. Dana and Becky were shocked by their presence. "Umm, hey" replied Dana.
"Is all of this necessary?" asked Becky.
"Just in case" replied Peter. "He's a real nervous wreck" replied Luna.
"Hey, I'm right here you know" said Peter.
"Well, it was nice running into you guys. Dana and I are heading off to the bus stop" replied Becky.
"Okay dudes. See you guys later" said Luna.
"Later guys" said Dana. She and Becky went off to the nearest bus stop.
Luna and Peter go back to waiting for Sam to come out and sure enough she did come out with the police driving instructor.
"Congratulations Mrs. Sharp, you're now a certified driver. Just obey the traffic laws" said the cop.
"Will do officer" replied Sam as she shakes his hand.
Sam then runs off to Luna and Peter and hugs them both. "I did it! I did it! I passed!"
Luna and Peter return the hug. "I knew you could do it babe" said Luna. "Dang right darling" said Peter.
Peter then looks to Leon and Sergei and hand signals them to leave. The two Spellman's nod and drive off.
"So, I wonder when I'm getting my own ride!" said Sam. "How about now?" said Peter.
"What?!" said Luna and Sam.
Peter then walks them back to the Sharp family truck. "Here she is."
"Umm, dad. Isn't that your truck?" asked Sam.
"Well, yes. But I am handing her down to you" replied Peter. "Really?" asked Sam.
"Really" replied Peter.
"I don't know dad. Don't you still need a ride to go to work, I mean you have a bike but that's not gonna be enough in case your carrying big things" said Sam.
"That's okay I got a new truck over there" said Peter as he points to the large black GMC Pick-up truck with some flame patterns on the side and a large engine sticking out on the hood.
Luna and Sam's jaws just dropped seeing his new truck.
"Can you believe that I won it yesterday at a contest in the mall" said Peter.
(Flashback)
Peter is in the mall wearing headphones and just finished lunch. He walks around playing angry birds on his phone, what he doesn't know he just entered an area where a big contest was happening.
"Alright, here's the big contest people! The one who can guess how many Iron balls are in this crate wins this brand new truck!" said the announcer. Many people loved the looks of the truck.
Spotlights are searching throughout the crowd and many people guess the number but fail.
Then it hits Peter who just passed a level in angry birds. "Ha! 10,995 points fools!"
"And we have a winner!" said the announcer, soon confetti is in the air and many people clap.
Peter then stops looking at the screen and looks around at all the people clapping for him. "I know I passed the level but this is no time to clap for it."
(End flashback)
"That was the best day ever" said Peter.
Luna and Sam look at him with a confused look.
"Well, I'm gonna head home now. You two drive safely" said Peter. He hops into his truck and drives off.
Sam then gets into the driver's seat of the Red Truck and Luna gets to the passenger's seat.
"This is so cool!" said Sam. "Never thought I'd actually own the family truck, mom would be so proud and Simon with be so jealous."
"Same here man. This is like the biggest hand-me-down ever" said Luna. "Plus, we can load all of the band members stuff in here."
"I just hope Chunk doesn't feel left out when he hears that I have a truck" said Sam with some concern.
"I'm sure he'll be stoked dude" said Luna.
(Hours later they head for Chunk's place)
"Smashing luv's! The best thing that's ever happened today for you Sam" said Chunk.
"See told ya" replied Luna.
"So, you're not upset that I have a ride that could carry all of our stuff?" asked Sam.
"Why should I? This is a big thing for a young person's life. You finally have your own set of wheels and I wouldn't be any more proud for you and the plus side, it acts as a storage wagon too" said Chunk.
"But, you've been our Roadie since Luna became part of the band, won't you and your van feel left out?" asked Sam with some concern.
"I wouldn't be concerned about that luv, me van and I have had a lot of good runs with ya, and I guess it's about time something else got to do all of the heavy lifting. But if you ever need to carry more than just one or more instruments, then me and my van can act as back up" replied Chunk.
"Thanks Chunk" replied Sam. "See, he does understand" replied Luna.
"So, how about we all take a cruise in whatever ride we all have. Also Luna where's your car?" said Chunk.
"Oh, I rode with Peter and Sam on the truck to come with them to the DMV" replied Luna.
"That's cool, you can ride shotgun with me" said Sam. "Ohh, me-ow" replied Luna.
"Hehe, just don't start making love in the truck. Otherwise it's going to be very awkward when someone rides with ya" said Chunk.
They hop into the van and the red Sharp Truck and drive off, letting wherever the road takes em. Probably until lunch.
(FutureTech)
Peter's new truck arrives and he parks it. He then enters the building.
He spots Martin, Victor and Penny in the warehouse. "Sup nerds."
"Hey Pyron" replied Victor. "Calling me by my hero name, huh. Didn't expect that one" replied Peter.
"Well, your weapon is ready and locked and loaded!" said Martin. He then removes the white sheet revealing the big red sword.
Peter whistles at the sight. "She is a beauty!"
"Glad you like her. Because she is ready for whatever fight is coming" replied Victor.
Penny then hands him a list of all the configurations. "Here is a list of whatever weapon it can convert into."
Peter reads all of the different weapons configurations. "Shotgun, Axe, Mace, Crossbow, Sniper rifle …. Damn man! This is awesome!"
"You gonna take her home now?" asked Martin.
"Not yet. If we're engaged in a battle between whatever evil, then I'll use her. Just leave her here until then" replied Peter.
"Sure thing dude" replied Victor. "Have you come up with a name yet?"
Peter was thinking. "You know what. I think the best way to know her identity is to see how she fairs in battle, so I'll come up with a name until then."
"Alright man" replied Martin.
"And with your ghost rider powers, it will be enhanced to new heights" said Penny.
"Then I can't wait for the next fight!" said Peter.
(Lynn's Table)
Neil and Gwen step inside and look to their menus.
"He really has a lot of food he's trying to innovate" said Neil.
"Let's hope there's no fish oil in any of this stuff" said Gwen.
Then their waitress arrives. "So have you two ordered yet?" asked Carol.
"Let's see, I'll have the fried shrimp salad with a glass of lemon tea" said Neil.
"I'll have the chicken and eggs benedict omelet" said Gwen. "With the same drink."
"Coming right up" said Carol as she takes the menus and heads for the kitchen.
Then they spot Lori walking around the place in an employee's uniform, she also sees them.
"Hey Lori" said Neil. "What are you doing here? And why are you wearing that?" asked Gwen.
"Well, two days ago I finally decided which college I'm going to attend. So I wanna spend as much time as I've got with my dad here in the restaurant" replied Lori.
"So how's it handling?" asked Neil.
"Well, when I first tried it was a disaster. From Scoots, to Huggins and slicing onions, it was literally the worse day of my life. But then dad saw something I could do, being manager. Organizing, arranging deliveries, checking on the rest of the staff and the pay checks" replied Lori.
"Well looks like you have what it takes to be a business woman after all" said Neil.
"Chances your dream career will happen, right after college" said Gwen.
"I know right! I can be able to balance my hero life, my love life and whatever time I have once I go to college" said Lori.
Then Neil understood what she meant. "Hold on, FutureTech University? You're going there?"
"And that was supposed to be a surprise after my graduation" replied Lori with annoyance.
"Sorry it's just it was an easy to guess thing when you mentioned balancing your hero life" replied Neil.
"It is the only thing that could manage that" said Gwen.
Lori sighs. "Well now that you two know, can you not tell the others? I wanna make it a surprise after I graduate high school."
"Neil and Gwen smiles. "Sure, we'll keep it a secret."
"Great, thanks guys. Also how is Leon with the whole online date search thing?" asked Lori.
"Not well I'm afraid" replied Neil. "But he's being patient, currently occupying himself with family and his wrestling career."
"He's really making strides into his life" said Gwen.
"Well, I hope he finds that special someone" replied Lori.
(Ketchum Park)
Lincoln, Linka, Jordan, Timmy, Lucy, Haiku, Lana, Lola, Lisa, Luan, Benny and Lincoln's friends are getting ready for another epic Pokemon battle.
"Alright Absol let's use shadow claw!" said Lincoln.
"Mime Junior double team!" said Luan.
The battle between Lincoln and Luan sparks out an all-out brawl. In the end it was Absol who claims the win.
"Aww, you did good out there Mime Junior. Don't let this lost be downfall of the sport! Hahaha! Get it?" said Luan.
Mime junior giggles from the joke. Benny just smiles and shakes his head. "Same old Luan."
Then they all hear sirens and spot cop cars speed by. "And there's trouble" said Linka.
Lincoln, Linka and Jordan hop onto the vulture and take off with Timmy riding the poof mech.
The others just watch as they leave the park at full speed. "So I guess we'll be here then" said Stella.
"Anyone wanna face me and Crobat?" asked Lucy. "Oh, it is on!" said Lana.
"Get ready for battle then" said Lisa.
Meanwhile Lincoln and the others catch up to the cop cars.
Officer Schoffner sees them and lowers her window.
"What's the situation Schoffner?" asked Linka.
"A bank robbery has just been committed, luckily it was empty of any civilians and employees. But the crooks escaped on a bus they used" replied Schoffner.
"Was there a guard?" asked Jordan.
"Yes, he tried to stop them but they got away. He's not hurt, just his pride though" replied Schoffner.
"Where's the bus now?" asked Lincoln.
"Headed for the outskirts of town. My guess is that their planning to leave Royal Woods, we already contacted Hazeltucky county police to intercept" replied Officer Schoffner.
"Then let's keep up with them" said Jordan.
Lincoln then let's Jordan take the vulture, while he rides on an ice road.
Not too far the armored bus is nearing the county line. The five men inside start shooting at the police cars chasing them, then one of them spots the Vulture Bike and tries to shoot it.
Linka activates the bikes shields. Lincoln blasts the bus with icicle rounds, Linka fires multiple sniper shots and Jordan shoots at the tires.
The bus starts to swerve a bit, all of the cop cars back off.
At the county border all of the Hazeltucky officers get ready with spike strips.
They soon spot the incoming bus headed towards them and soon enough it hits the spike strips and starts to lose control the bus then hits the right to hard and slams onto its side, it then makes screech towards some incoming cop cars. But it gets stopped by a bramble of vines. They all look to see Leni Ivy who was the one who summoned them.
All the cop cars from Royal Woods and Hazeltucky surround the bus, the door opens and coming out are three guys with heavy machine guns.
The cops take cover behind their cars, Linka uses a shield barrier, Jordan hides inside the Arct mech, Lincoln creates an ice wall and Leni makes a vine shield.
Many of the cops try to shoot and take cover.
Linka then throws a smoke grenade onto the bus. Then Lincoln shoots out an ice blast freezing the armed men.
The other two men try and make a run for it, but they get hit in the heads by Timmy inside of the Poof mech. "you guys aren't going anywhere!"
The cops apprehend the armed men and put them into the Royal Woods cop cars. Lincoln and Linka help retrieve the stolen cash, but it turns out they weren't stolen cash. It was bars of gold.
Lincoln whistles at the impressive sight. "That sure is a lot of gold" said Linka.
"So this is what they were after" said Jordan.
"Huh, I was wondering why we were catching up to the bus" said Officer Schoffner.
"Guess there was too much weight" said Timmy.
Meanwhile Leni provides some healing saplings to the injure cops, not all of them were injured badly.
Then Leni feels something unexpected from behind when one of the Hazeltucky County cops pass by her.
She then turns around to face the young cop. "Hey there sweet thing" said the officer. He was 19 in age and a blonde with some freckles.
"I'm sorry did you just slap my butt?!" said Leni in anger. Lincoln, Linka and Timmy take notice from hearing that.
"Who, who! Easy there tree hugger, we're all good guys here. Can't be any harm in having fun" said the cop. "the names Marcus by the way little lady."
Leni was at this point irritated. "That was rude and inappropriate you pervert!"
"Well, if it makes you feel bad we can both talk, hang out, maybe catch some dinner or a movie. What kinds do you like sugar?" said Officer Marcus.
"Neither! Stop what talking to me you sick bastard!" yelled Leni.
"Oooh, getting a little wild now are? I like em wild" he says as he slowly approaches her. Leni felt completely threatened and was about to unleash a plant monster, but Lincoln, Linka and Timmy get in front of her weapons pointed at the cop.
"Stay away from our sister you moron!" said the young trio.
"Hey now kiddies. I was just asking if the little lady was okay" replied Officer Marcus.
"You have no rights to do that to her!" said Linka.
"You better make your leave right now!" said Timmy.
"Back off punk!" said Lincoln.
Marcus wasn't even intimidated. "And what if I don't?"
"Then we will intervene" replied Schoffner and her officers who all had their weapons ready.
"What you're committing is sexual harassment and sexual assault to one of our iconic heroes of not just Royal Woods, but to the whole freaking universe!" said Officer Schoffner.
"Easy there officer, you're in my county terf now" said Marcus. "And did I mention I'm the sergeant?"
His officers also had their guns ready. The Royal Defenders were ready to aid their fellow cops.
Then the sheriff's car arrives. "Stop now Marcus!"
"Hey Chief, these people were just leaving" said Marcus.
"No you are leaving! The rest of you stand down now!" yelled Sheriff Samson. A cop in his early thirties with a beard and mustache and has a small scar on his left cheek from a bullet shot.
The rest of the cops lower their guns. Samson faces the Royal Defenders. "I'm so sorry for what my idiot sergeant did."
The also lower their weapons. "You better keep your men in line! Otherwise FutureTech will hear about this!" said Lincoln.
Samson sighs. "I know, and I apologies for Marcus's actions. He just became Sergeant today and he will be demoted."
Marcus is shocked hearing this. "Wait what?!"
Officer Schoffner steps in front. "I suggest you fix whatever parasites are in your cop's heads, the last thing you don't want is FutureTech all over Hazeltucky replacing all of your cops with Peacekeeper's. Understand?!"
"Yes Schoffner, again I am so sorry" said Samson.
"We both know each other Samson, we both go way back and I trust you" replied Officer Schoffner as she heads to her squad car along with the other cops.
Samson sighs and looks to all of his officers in anger. "Back to the fucking station all of you!"
They all head into their squad cars in fear. He then looks to Marcus. "You just got demoted back to traffic cop son!"
"What? What did I do?!" said Marcus. Then he gets grabbed by the leg by a vine, it then proceeds to wedgie him onto the highest branch on the tree.
It also stuffs his pants with acorns, which means here come the squirrels.
Marcus screams. "Someone help me!"
Samson chuckles. "Someone call a ladder and get that moron down."
Leni smiles. "That was for being a pervert jerk!"
They all head back to Royal Woods. "So, we're telling dad?" asked Linka.
"Yes!" replied Lincoln, Timmy and Leni. "What is wrong with cops these days?" asked Jordan.
(Meanwhile outside of Greenwich)
Leon and Sergei are both eating some takeout on the tiger.
"So, no woman has answered?" asked Sergei.
Leon sips his soda. "Not yet man. This is really hard."
Sergei needed to cheer up his brother, then he gets an idea.
"Okay, so from all the ladies you've met. Who do you think is the cutest?" asked Sergei.
"Dana" replied Leon.
"Okay, so if you and – Wait a minute, Dana!" yelled Sergei.
"You said the ladies I've met and I think Dana is cute" replied Leon.
"She's seventeen!" said Sergei.
"I know" replied Leon.
"She's a minor!" said Sergei.
"I know" replied Leon as he takes a bite from his pizza.
"And you're twenty two!" said Sergei.
"Dude, I know!" said Leon.
Sergei sighs. "Alright, how long have you had a crush on her?"
Leon swallows. "Since I first saw her on TV with her powers or was it when we talked during Luna's birthday. I honestly can't remember."
Sergei could not believe what he was hearing. "What the hell dude?!"
"Sorry, it's just she's nice, sweet, smart, caring, supportive, fun and open to anyone who has problems. She was the one who helped Lincoln with the whole bad luck thing, alongside Becky and Carol" replied Leon.
Sergei stayed silent. "Stick with the online dating man."
"Whatever" replied Leon as they both continue eating.
"You think Martin needs a girlfriend?" asked Leon.
"A guy who is always making new tech almost every day? Yes I think he needs one" replied Sergei.
"Let's ask him next time" replied Leon.
(FutureTech)
Martin and Victor place the sword into a black vault. "This will keep it safe for Peter" said Martin.
"So, what do we do with Tadashi?" asked Victor. They both look towards the teen with some missing limbs inside of the healing tank.
"That part is not gonna be easy, the only way to save him is to add some mechanical parts. Like a cyborg" replied Martin.
"For a minute there I thought you were gonna say Terminator or Robocop" said Victor.
Then Martin remembered something. "Do you remember the AI of Japan's tech division? The one who's been helping us with their transformation mechs?"
"Yeah" replied Victor.
Then Martin shows him a blueprint of something. "They were asking me if I could create a cybernetic and yet human like body for him, just like how I gave Penny some robotic organs."
"So, you wanna help put the Japanese AI Tech genius into a body?" asked Victor.
"Yes I do. With his help he can help us fix Tadashi. Plus he wants to understand human nature and emotions" said Martin.
"This isn't gonna be an Ultron thing is it?" asked Victor.
"What Ultron thing?" asked Penny as she enters with some coffee.
"Your dad wants to put the Japanese AI genius into a body" said Victor.
"Oh, that sounds terrific" said Penny.
"It's not gonna be an Ultron thing. Like Harv Japanese AI Cyber was designed to be almost as emotional and understanding as a human and I'm going to do the unthinkable" said Martin.
"You sure we can't ask Kane to fix Tadashi?" asked Victor.
"Kane's cyborgs are malicious and devoted psychopaths, hell no" replied Martin.
"Alright then. Let's make this robot body" said Victor.
They take a sip from their coffee and get to work.
Martin looks back to Tadashi. "Don't worry kid, we'll get you fixed up, but right now we need someone who can do the job."
To be continued …..
Some of these scenes have been bugging me in my sleep, also I don't know if pairing Leon with Dana is a good idea. I mean I know Leon is half immortal thanks to Gyro and the Aswang powers and he can slow down his age, I just want your opinion guys. Leave a review and tell me what you al think.
