Spells and Louds
Chapter 382: End of the month.
(Spellman Estate.)
As a normal day should begin for the usual family of the Spellmans, but not today. This is the day two of them have been waiting for.
Lincoln is putting on some black combat boots, blue camouflage pants, along with his signature Freezer Burn suit and Trench coat, fingerless gloves and he checks his Shredder Blaster and his mask if they are adjusted and ready.
Luna comes out of the bathroom already dressed, wearing a light blue shirt showing off her belly, black leggings, purple ice streaked skirt, her signature purple boots whit white straps, fingerless gloves and then she grabs her purple leather jacket.
Luna sees Lincoln grabs Mjolnir and she grabs Frostmourne. "This is it bro, this is the day we've been waiting for, and no one can be able to stop either of is as we go onto this small crusade."
Lincoln then grabs his phone and wallet. "I know sis, I'm as stoked as you are and the louds nor have Pop-pop even called us if they don't want us to do this. Looks like we're all in on the word go and take down. Have you called the backup yet?"
Luna chuckles and she fixes her brother's hair. "Not yet, but soon they will know about this once we find her and when we do, then they will arrive and aid in taking her down. Ruth will be faced with the judgment of death and there is nothing she can do to stop it."
Lincoln and Luna then strap their weapons to their waist. "Then let's lock and load sis" said Lincoln. They both walk out of the room and head downstairs, they then spot the whole team in the living room and Courage and Michelle are serving them all some iced tea and snacks.
Neil, Gwen, Sabrina, Duchess, Leni, Linka, Timmy, Poof, Jordan, Rick, Jesse, Dominic, the Netherdrakes, Leon, Sergei, Loona and they're pups, Lori, Luan, Dana, Becky, Carol, Martin, Victor, Penny, Jack Cyber, Tadashi, Boomer, Bruce Banner, Pyrrha, Doctor Strange, Doctor Fate, Sam, Peter, the Dazzles, Ember, Aggie, Kick and all of their Pokemon.
"And this is bad, let me guess you guys wanna stop us from what we're going to do today?" asked Luna with her arms crossed. Lincoln also did not like the looks of this.
"We're not here to stop you guys, in fact we care little with what you guys do to Ruth" said Neil.
"Mom and Dad have decided on that too" said Lori. "Though she was the close good family member to mom, she literally saw just how cruel Ruth is when it came to trying to get us to do her work."
"Took mom this long to finally see it, also Aunt Ruth isn't in town anymore" said Luan. "We got some word that she fled from Royal Woods, better yet she left Michigan with all of her cats and who knows where she could be."
Martin pulls out his tablet and looks for the target. "Location is not actually out of Michigan. She must've lied about that one to send Luna on a wild goose chase. Ruth Willard is located in Cheboygan, looks like she's trying to set you off course kid."
Luna smirks. "She has no idea what is in store for her when I get there."
"So, what's this big meeting about?" asked Lincoln. He and Luna go over and sit onto the couch next to Jordan and Sam.
"Us." They all see Gyro and Wrathion come in. "We have something to tell all of you, but this is mostly about Lincoln and Luna and their fused form known as Reforger" said Gyro.
This was not making any sense to them. "What does this have to do with our kids?" asked Gwen. "And their fusion form? What the heck is going on?"
Gyro and Wrathion look to each other and nod. Wrathion then hands Lincoln and Luna a book. "This is the book that was given to you by Hex during the time you and your sister were stuck in the alternate Omnitrix dimension and i found some unexpected information regarding Reforger. I suggest you both read what it has to say."
Lincoln and Luna look to the tome of Medivh and they open it. They go through some pages until they see something that shocks them. The others also notice an illustration of Reforger and behind it are two dark silhouettes that look like Freezer Burn and Demon Luna.
"What the hell am I looking at?" asked Sunset in shock.
"This … This can't be real, right?" asked Sabrina.
"By the ancient evils, what is going on?" asked Sergei. "Why is this image even here?!"
Lincoln and Luna proceed to read what the last Guardian had written down ages ago.
"I have had a vision, a powerful and yet dangerous vision. I saw a powerful and unstoppable being, forged from the inner thoughts of two youths. This being is forged through their devotion and love for each other and is capable to possess powers beyond of that to any being, this being is a Guardian, a new guardian. A Guardian who might one day decide the fate of the cosmos and could be our final hope should any form of even powerful evil rise up. I have hopes that the next Guardian would read this and know that I have had many visions after this one, visions of evil fighting this 'Reforged' being of a guardian."
"If the prophesized being of a guardian should read this, then there is little to know about yourself but I have seen that you are capable of doing much more than just wield the powers of dark and light, for you both have the might and power of immortality. Neither of you can die either from a ruthless attack or critical damage or from age. Almost like the night elves of Kalimdor, you can last longer than any mere mortal, whether you be separated or be in one being. Forgive me that this is a painful construct to know, but just know that with this kind of immortality, you may live longer than anyone, from families all the way to loved ones. This immortal power will only be unlocked whether one of you has made the proper age of above twenty, I pray that you may understand why I have written this down. Live the destiny you were given and do what you can to save the realms from evil, sacrifice some happiness to save others, as long as you have each other. Then perhaps we may all find peace within the infinite cosmos."
They are all shocked and look towards Lincoln and Luna and they all barely have anything left to say.
Jordan and Sam looked more concerned. "Lincoln? Luna?"
Lincoln then looks to his big sister. "So, we can't die or pass away, once Luna reaches the age of 20? Okay, so this is the most unnerving information I have ever heard and I don't know what to think of it all."
"You got me bro, this is some messed up stuff" said Luna.
Neil looks to Gyro. "There's no turning back from this. Is there?"
Gyro looks down with some shame. "I am so, so sorry. But after you both have become Reforger, the faith of the lives you two have lived are now bound to this new path. The path to live as long as I have been, and perhaps for as long as time stands. You have read what the book says and anyone within your family, friends and loved ones will fade away, while you two stand as the sole beings to fend off evil and protect the realms."
"This is one of Medivh's lost tomes, which he wrote before he was corrupted and sent the orcs into Azeroth" replied Wrathion. "This is dark and unholy knowledge, this is the reason why Hex could not wield the books incantations. Because it contains some of the most destructive and untamable powers that only a being as powerful as Medivh can wield."
"Which means Reforger can wield this power as well" replied Martin. "Holy shit. This is so messed up."
They all were stunned to know that this knowledge has come, they will age over time but Lincoln and Luna might remain the same should they reach the age of their lives in time. This is a painful thing to do, and something Lucy did dream of once.
"Lincoln? Luna? Are you guys okay?" asked Ember. They all look to the two siblings who are closest to each other.
Lincoln and Luna are still processing this, they then look to Sam and Jordan. They're lovers are also trying to find some sense into all of this knowledge. "So, what does this mean for us and what we stand for? The love we have?" asked Lincoln as he holds Jordan's hand.
"Sam, anything from you?" asked Luna as she holds her lovers hand. "This isn't the choice of Lincoln and me, but to you and Jordan as well."
"If this is what destiny brings, then I guess this is more than what we can talk about" said Jordan. "Maybe we should talk about this when we're alone."
"I think that's a great idea, we need some time to process all of this and then we can figure out some things on what to do next" said Sam.
Luna and Lincoln smile and they both share a kiss with Jordan and Sam. The others were worried, especially Neil and Gwen. From what Neil and Gwen knows, is that Neil can't age or die, he is bound with Deathwing inside of him, which means he will last long as well.
Gwen needed to talk to Neil about that one, when the time is right.
They then depart from the kiss. "Well, you guys know what day it is right?" said Jordan.
"What are you two waiting for?" asked Sam. "Go after the hunt."
Lincoln and Luna share a hug from Jordan and Sam, they then depart from the hug and they get up. Luna then hands the book back to Gyro.
Gyro denies the book. "No. This book can only belong to the one who was destined to see this and so this book belongs to you both. Read from it and find any other important information. I only read this part and not the rest, because it is not my jurisdiction to be part of what was left of Medivh's legacy."
Luna and Lincoln look to the book, this book is there's and they can use it for whatever information it contains. All of Medivh's most dangerous and powerful spells. "I'll put it in your room guys." they hand the book to Michelle and she brings it up to their room.
Lincoln and Luna look to each other and hug it out, this is still a sweet moment for others to see. They then break the hug and look to the door, they open it but look back to the others.
"Go, finish what you marked and come back knowing there is some peace taken care of" said Neil.
Lincoln and Luna smile and nod. Lincoln then rides his Netherdrake Nel'Thorious and Luna summons Sindragosa and she rides the Frost Wyrm Queen. They do one mighty roar and they take to the skies.
Everyone watches as they leave. "So, what does this mean for the rest of us?" asked Loona.
"We wait" replied Gyro. "We wait for when they find anything else within that book. Perhaps there are other ways for them to live their lives with those they love, but it could be a long while. So, patience must be placed onto us."
Sam and Jordan were happy that Lincoln and Luna will keep living to be who they are, but it felt painful for them to know they will soon wither away as their lovers keep living on. They wanted to try and sort this shit out, but how?
Gyro notices this and thinks. 'Perhaps there could be a way for them to live with Lincoln and Luna, but it could be risky.' He then looks to Neil and Gwen who are holding hands. 'And same goes for them. Change is coming and it is not what we have expected.'
"What the hell is he doing?" asked Boomer. They all see Hollow has left the house and is headed back to his TIE Reaper Advanced and he flies off to the direction where Lincoln and Luna are headed.
"Looks like someone wants front row seats" said Duchess.
(Somewhere in Cheboygan.)
Somewhere in a run down and abandoned apartment building, that is where Ruth is hiding. She has boarded up all the window of the place and is living there with her cats. She made sure the law would not find her and she cut off all ties with everyone that she knew and loved.
Ruth looks around her apartment room and sees all her cats just being themselves. "Okay, okay. So, we're safe and no one can catch us here and sure as heck Luna cannot come here and …. And get me."
She looks to the calendar and she sees the date on it is July 31. Then she recalls what Luna said to her, during the day of Lynn Sr's birthday. "I will not kill you now, not yet that is. But once the month of July has come to its close then I will arrive and I will take your soul. You will then forever serve the scourge and be a slave for all eternity as you suffer."
"You're time will soon come. For death itself will come for you and so will your mother Harriet, she too will see fit that you suffer for all of eternity"
The very reminder of those words were enough to send a chill down her spine. But she tries to stay firm and hold her ground. "No, no I will not be provoked by fear anymore. She cannot get me, she cannot come and take me!"
She then looks to the picture of the family she once had. "They all ….. They all don't want anything to do with me. They all abandoned me, they did this to me and what did I do? I just spoke the truth, I spoke my word. I'm not the bad person here, I did not start all of this. They did!"
Ruth then looks to the picture of her younger brother Albert and she tosses it into the trash can. "I have no family anymore."
"Is that so?" Ruth is stunned in place from that voice, a voice she thought she would never ever hear again. She turns to the dark corner of the room and she sees a shadowy figure that soon appears as her deceased mother, Harriet Willard. "Hello Ruthie, been a while."
Ruth backs away in fear. "M-Mom? No, no. It can't be! Y-You're dead!"
Harriet smiles. "Why, I am dead and if I can recall you said that you have no family anymore. Which means, I am not your mother and you are not my daughter."
"She is not wrong." Standing next to her is a large skeleton like demonic being, the Archlich Kel'Thuzad. "Oh, did not think you'd see a servant of the damned here now did you? Well, I guess we finally found you."
"W-What? We?!" Ruth backs up against the wall and all her cats scatter out of the room. "Who … Who's we?!"
Then the windows are blasted open by Ghoul claws, she stays in the middle of the room and watches as the Ghouls claw their way into the apartment, they all seek to tear her apart.
The front door is kicked open and coming in wielding a chained scythe and lantern is Thresh, the Chain Warden and he spins his sickle. "Come out and play, and join in the soul excursion." He laughs evilly.
The ground glows green and standing next to Thresh is Kalista, the Spear of Vengeance. She then points to Harriet. "You have brought misery and suffering to the people who trust you, your demise will enlighten the world and vengeance shall soon be served."
The wall opens into a fiery circle and stepping out is none other than the Radio Demon himself Alastor. "Well, well. What do we have here? A retarded sinful woman who needs to be crucified? Well, this will be very entertaining!"
The wall again shutters and shakes and busting into the place is the Traitor King Crypt Lord, Anub'Arak. "Glory to the Scourge and to the almighty wielder of Frostmourne! Feel the chilling embrace of the dead!" He roars and impales three of her cats.
Then the wall of ghouls is broken and looking into Ruth is Mordekaiser, the Iron Revenant. "There is no escape, for death has come to you!"
"It is all over Ruth" said Kel'Thuzad. "This is the end of the line and your soul now belongs to the scourge, or better yet shall be sent to the fiery pits of hell."
"And I will make sure you stay there, for all of eternity" said Harriet. They then hear a massive roar from outside. "And the Grimm Reaper has arrived, time for a death sentence."
They then feel the while apartment shake as if something has landed. Ruth only covers her ears and sheds tears. "No. Please no. Stop. Leave me alone. Please go away!"
Then the ceiling is frozen and they hear some blasting, like something is coming down from above and it keeps going and going and going and going and then the frozen ceiling cracks and something busts through and lands in front of her.
Ruth opens her eyes and she sees standing above her is the Lich King Bolvar Fordragon. He's here! He's not at Icecrown! Holy shit!
"The Time of your death, has come!"
He then steps aside and right there, is Luna Frost and next to her is her brother Lincoln. Lincoln is in his hero attire and has his mask on and his weapons ready.
Ruth then tries to plead with them. "Lincoln, Luna. I am so, so sorry for what I said. I should never have said all those things, I shouldn't have mocked Lincoln. Please, don't kill me, let me live! Please! I beg of you! Spare me!" She sheds tears as this happens.
They all look to Luna and see what she thinks. Luna then looks to Lincoln. "What do you say little brother?"
Lincoln just looks onto the sad person who was once family. "You pushed me, all you wanted was people to do the things you didn't wanna do. You provoked all of this, you really think I would forgive someone like you. Of all people I thought you would know better, but sadly you didn't. I don't see any reason for you to remain, in the world of the living."
They all then look to the cowering woman. "No, no. No. No!" Ruth pulls out a pistol she had in her pocket and she shoots towards Lincoln, but the bullet stops a few inches from his face.
Ruth shoots again but all the bullets stop in place. Then they see someone come in with the Infinity Gauntlet in hand, Lord Hollow Cabal. "I am so glad I came on time. Now, it appears she has proven to be a far greater threat to others than to herself." He then turns the bullets into dust.
"I couldn't agree more." Luna enters her demon form and pulls out Frostmourne, she slowly walks towards the woman who is now backing up. "Time for a killing spree!"
Ruth tries to throw things at her, but they all just break. "Leave me alone! Go away! No! Stay back!"
"So annoying." Luna is irritated by this and she just throws Frostmourne at her. Ruth is then impaled onto the wall, she looks onto her chest and sees the Runeblade stuck to her and she sees Luna hold the sword. "You are a wretched piece of shit onto this world and I think it's about time I got rid of it."
She then yanks Ruth and her sword off the wall and she kicks Ruth off the sword and she stumble and almost falls into a fiery portal underneath her. Ruth holds onto the edge of the portal, she looks down and sees countless souls trying to drag her into the portal with them.
Ruth then sheds tears and looks up to see all of them surrounding the portal. "Please! Spare me! I don't want this! I'm sorry!"
Lincoln then looks to her fingers still holding on. "Say hello to the devil for me."
Ruth's eyes go wide and Lincoln steps on her fingers and she's sent plummeting into the endless void that leads to hell, the souls pull onto her as they rip her apart, all while she screams for them to save her and it all fades to black.
To be continued …..
A/N: The truth of the Reforger has been found, but who knows what other secrets does Medivh's tome contains and Ruth is gone, forever and that stain on the earth is never coming back. Leave a review and tell me what you all think.
