Chapter 750.
"Operation: Hunt down Richmund."

(December 18. Jackson, Michigan.)

We now arrive as the night is closing in on the local juvenile detention center here, and here is where one of the enemies of Lincoln and Jordan reside, and those guys are actually the former henchmen of Chandler McCann. Dennis and Patrick and the duo have been transferred here for some strange reason.

The place is quiet, and no one is making a sound, and then a humming noise is heard and a drone comes to the window of the cell where Dennis and Patrick are, and this drone is different. Now it is just like the one from Edmund Richmund, but it seems to be controlled by something not of warehouse quality.

The drone also has large arms and some different weapons to break open walls, and the drone is headed for the bars and is ready to blast it open and hand a duffle bag to the boys inside, but the drone notices they are gone and the voice of Edmund can be heard from the drone.

"What the heck? Where did they go?" The drone looks around, but then some spitballs are launched onto the drone's camera, and this blocks its view, and it uses its arms to wipe the spitballs off, but then something too fast hits the drone in the head and it loses control and falls to the ground below.

The drone is slowly going haywire and then Ryan Rosato shows up and with some allied troops. "We got the drone." He then lets the troops carry the drone, and then Ryan looks up and he gives the figure a thumbs up.

The figure in that room was none other than Lincoln Loud, and the other one was Commander Freezer Burn, they were wearing disguises to look like Dennis and Patrick. "The plan worked, alright let's get moving!" said Lincoln Loud.

Freezer Burn nods and he whistles for his ride to come, and his Netherdrake comes down and they both jump off the window and they hop onto the back of the dragon and they knock over the wall of the prison, and the whole prison falls apart and is not an actual juvie, the whole place is none other than a fake. It's an old warehouse, meant to look like a fake juvie.

Lincoln chuckles. "The plan worked all too well." He then looks to Ryan. "Hack that thing and make sure Lisa and Caroline Linnaeus get all the information they need, we're headed to Lake Huron and meet with the others there."

Ryan nods. "Got it!" He then watches as Lincoln and his hero counterpart go through a portal and he looks to the drone and grabs some tools and his laptop. "Now, let's see where you're hiding Richmund!"

(Somewhere at Huron.)

At this very moment, at the site not too far from the docks, we have three Listening Outpost Vehicles remaining in cloak, and are picking up hidden signals across the area, tracking down any signs of where their target might be, and they have the best tech on station hidden in the waters of the lakes.

Inside one of them is Lisa and Caroline Linnaeus and they have with them all the drone microchips and all planted to some hard drives and CPU's, and they are tracking down what could be the best operations mission ever for them both. "The signal is weak, and nothing. The chips lead to nothing" said Lisa.

Caroline Linnaeus sighs. "Which then comes to the truth that these microchips from those drones don't have any leads to the whereabouts of Richmund, and it means that these are not drones controlled from his submarine, they are controlled elsewhere to keep us off course."

Lisa sighs. "Then where on earth is that man?" Then she sees a message is left for her in the tablet and she sees what it is. "Ryan Rosato, he sent us some details and coordinates!"

This makes Caroline Linnaeus smile. "Then we have our lead, we have his location. We have to pinpoint where his submarine is, transmit the ping signal and then keep track and then send the actual location to the assault force!" The two smart folks begin to do their work and the listening outposts change their radar positions and are now facing the lake far from them. They got him!

(Harrisville, Alcona.)

In this town, not too far from the docks is where Leslie Silver is, and she had finished her recent shopping spree and seems less than amused. 'Ugh. No matter where I go, there is always no place where they have the fashion meant for me. This stinks big time!'

She then walks down the street and she is headed somewhere, and she doesn't know that she is being followed from the rooftops and those figures are Jordan, Gretchen, Hope, Regina and Chastity and the girls are dressed as ninja's and thanks to some Gym Class sessions and dodge balls, they leap over the roof tops and keep track of Leslie and where she might be headed.

Jordan then uses her comm link. "Guys, we are now on the rail of Leslie Silver, and she is on the move and headed to... A Gold colored Helicopter?!" They stop and see, up ahead is a helicopter pad and that pad has a helicopter colored in gold and with the initials from L.K Richmund.

Gretchen scoffs. "Yup, that's definitely from Richmund and of course Leslie would wanna ride in that. She once wanted a golden helicopter for Christmas."

Chastity then looks to Jordan. "So, now?"

Jordan smirks. "Now." They then sneak off into the shadows and with her hero counterpart hidden in the shadows and waiting for the right moment, and with her vicious predator friend growling at what is to come.

Leslie then heads for the chopper, and she seems less than amused about today. "Stupid town, stupid stuff they have, stupid everything!" She then calms down. "This whole thing of me coming here is dumb, and I wanna go to a better mall..." But then the helicopter is busted through the glass before she gets inside. "Wait what?!"

Leslie turns around, and she gets hit in the gut by a dodge ball, and then Gretchen comes in and hits her in the chest, followed by Hope who lands a punch to the face, and they stand back for Regina and Chastity to tackle Leslie and then toss her away, and the girl tries to get up, but she is face-to-face with a dodge ball. "No..."

Jordan is in front of her. "Lights out, Silver." She winds up and hits Leslie hard on the face with the dodge ball, then a guard in the helicopter is about to attack, but an Indoraptor attacks the man and then Major Rosato attacks the pilot and knocked him out. Jordan sees this and nods. "This plan is doing well, now all we need is Richmund."

Jordan then sees the rest of her friends, and all of them seem happy at what they did to Leslie. Jordan then uses her comm link radio. "Everyone we have taken down Leslie Silver, I repeat... We have taken down, Leslie Silver. All we need now, is Edmund L.K Richmund."

Lincoln. "Solid copy. Ryan got the location, we're inbound to Lake Huron!"

Jordan smiles and she ties up Leslie Silver, and then she sees a dropship arrive and she waves to it, time to send this girl back to jail where she belongs.

(Lake Huron.)

Far off the coasts from the mainland of Michigan, a gold submarine is underwater and is making its way across the waters and inside is Edmond L.K Richmund, and though his company and business have been shut down for good, the man still has lots of resources and is not planning to give up just yet.

Edmund is confused. "Darn it, what the hell happened to the drone? Why did it shut down?!" He then goes through the recordings of what happened afterwards and he looks closely and sees the blurred image, of someone he hates. "Lincoln Loud?! How did he know?!"

Then one of his men reports. "Sir Richmund, apparently the helicopter with Leslie Silver has not arrived, and we were expecting it at the coordinates right now, but we have received no transmission from the pilot or anyone, sir."

Edmund Richmund is confused and concerned. "Something is not right here." Then the Submarine shakes, rattles and rolls and the crew inside panic as they try to stay balance. "What was that? What is going on?!"

Then one of the crew members speak. "Sir, we have been hit and we do not know what hit us. It looks like we have a breach in the hull, lower deck!"

Richmund growls. "Bring us to surface, now! This submarine is not going down, and it costed me money!" He then holds on and they feel the submarine is rising, but then it shakes again and they feel like they are moving fast. "Why are we surfacing faster than normal speed?"

The crew member checks the sonar. "We do not know sir, there is nothing seen on sonar, but something is shoving the submarine to the surface and a little too fast!" They all brace for what is to come.

On the surface, the gold colored submarine is shoved out of the water and it flies into the air, and then lands down onto the surface of the lake, and is damaged, and the ones who forced it out are two Akula Submarines, after they struck it with one of their torpedoes.

The submarine hatch opens and Edmund L.K Richmund looks around and is surprised by what he sees, he is surrounded by a large naval force, and it is composed of: 10 Assault Destroyers, 10 Akula Subs, 10 Naginata Destroyers, 1o WePeng Sub Chaser Strike crafts, 15 Riptide ACV's and 15 Pacifier FAV's, while artillery platforms are standing by art the coast and have range of the submarine.

Richmund is confused. "What is this?!"

"Edmund L.K Richmund!" The Assault Destroyer has Peter Harris calling. "You are under arrest, surrender now or we will use force to take you down and I wanna use these depth charges on ya!"

Then a Netherdrake flies by and Lincoln is onboard with his hero counterpart. Then the submarine is blasted by an ice blast and a giant undead skeleton dragon of ice flies by and this startles the rich criminal. "What is this madness?! How did you find me?!"

The Frost Wyrm now flies above, and onboard is Luna Frost and Luna Loud, and so Luna Loud speaks. "We had a plan and played you like a fiddle, there is no way to escape Richmund It is over!"

Lincoln also speaks with the mega horn. "You're annoying actions and attempted kidnapping is over, and you're not gonna get away with the acts of stupidity you tried to do. Surrender now, and you will..."

"Never!" Richmund then goes back into his submarine and it prepares to dive.

Lincoln sighs and sees the Frost Wyrm escape from what is about to happen, he then looks to Peter Harris and he nods, and the man knows what that means, and all of them yell out. "Open fire!" Every ship, submarine, artillery vehicle from the cast... They all fire they're weapons onto the one spot, the same spot where Richmund's submarine was.

The vessel below is not safe, as the blasts hit the submarine in all directions and is causing major damage and then one depth charge hits the bow and the whole submarine is critically damaged and then it surfaces from an Akula Sub torpedo and they watch as the wrecked dub is now out of the water, and this allows the Cryocopters to come in and freeze the submarine in place, and the Frost Wyrm comes and helps freeze the thing.

But then the front of the submarine breaks and a small high speed one-man submarine ejects and is traveling fast and Lincoln sees this. "Richmund!" The other boats and vessels give chase, but the small sub deploys some smoke and this obscures their vision and they watch as the submarine escapes at high speed, and continues to send smoke canisters to blind the pursuers.

Peter Harris yells. "After that thing!" He then goes to the bridge of the Assault destroyer and the fleet advances at full speed.

All of them then give chase and try to catch it if they can, but to Lincoln and the others, it means one thing. 'Just when we are about to get the trouble, he escapes. Which means, this is far from being over, not by a god dang long shot!'

To be continued in the next chapter.

A/N: Well, they did manage to take down Leslie Silver, and also sorta track down and slow down Edmund L.K Richmund, but god damn it, he escaped! This is bad, they are gonna have an even harder time finding him this time. Leave a review and tell me what you all think everyone.
