Chapter 331.
In collaboration with longtime ally/reader/reviewer and friends avanger44. Thanks man.
(Skater's Park.)
a beautiful day to enjoy some bike riding or skate boarding at the park, and currently two kids are inbound to the place, they're names are Richie and Flat tire, good friends with Lincoln Loud.
"So glad school is done for the day" replied Richie. "Now we can relax and enjoy some awesome bike ridin' time!"
"Yeah, a shame Rusty couldn't be here to hang with us, or even Simon" said Flat Tire. "Where are they by the way?"
"Hanging out with their ladies, but let's not bother them man" replied Richie. "Let's just hang out and see what kind of new tricks we can come up with."
"Yeah, you're right." Then Flat Tire asks. "Do you think I can hit it off with Jenny?"
Richie stops and looks to him. "Wait what? Dude, you like Jenny? As in the girl we once called Brownie back in Grade School and is related to Katherine Mulligan? That Jenny?"
Flat Tire sighs. "Yeah, that Jenny. I mean I know I'm terrible with girls and it didn't go well with me and Mollie and I know it was all from that bad moment with the Girl Guru thing, but I know even with loud not doing that stuff, I would've failed anyway."
Seeing Flat Tire looking upset was not gonna fly with Richie. "How about ask Lincoln or Simon for some advice, they have girlfriends and are keeping their relationship steady and long. They can help you out."
Flat Tire thinks about this. "Yeah, yeah you're right. I think I'll ask them for some advice, Lincoln is no longer in that old loud we once knew and he knows a thing or two about girl advice and stuff now, but if he is busy then I'll ask our club member Simon."
"See, that's the spirit! The Flat tire I know is back and ready to get into some romance. I mean, when I see it, you and Jenny have some things in common" said Richie.
Flat Tire looks to his friend, a bit confused. "Really? Like what?"
"Well, you both are too busy with what you guys do, you rarely hang out with anyone, you're always on the move and your uncle runs the best bike repair shop in town and her auntie is the top news reporter in town" replied Richie.
Flat Tire thinks about this again. "Well, that does make sense. But I need to know from Jenny herself, if she like me or not. If she doesn't, then I'll accept that. I can always try romance again some other time. I've learned my mistakes and I can be able to pass by them and look ahead."
Richie chuckles. "Okay, now o=your starting to sound a lot like Lincoln, good speech and good way to keep your head up and not let anything get you down."
"Lincoln's a good leader and he'll keep that stick up for a long, long time" replied Flat Tire. But then Richie pushes him aside and they're in the bushes with their bikes. "Hey! What are you?"
Richie shushes him. "Look!" They both spot a very familiar chubby kid, someone who Flat Tire once called friend. Poppa Wheelie!
"What the heck? What's Wallace doing back in town? I thought he was in private school after trying to rob my uncle's store?" said Flat Tire, the very sight of his old friend was enough to make him mad.
"No clue, let's listen in." Richie and Flat Tire then sneak around some bushes and follow Poppa Wheelie and wherever he's going, they then spot the kid with two other boys, one taller than Stella and one at Zach's height. "Well, this can't be good."
"Yeah, I'm starting to see what's happening here, but we can't be sure" replied Flat Tire, they both go closer and listen into what they're saying.
"Okay, so we're here at the now renamed Skater's park, now where the heck is that dork who ratted me out last time?!" said Poppa Wheelie as he looks around, he's sitting on a bike that he stole.
"No clue, but you said he comes here to do some tricks and stunts with his bike" said Scott. "Well, when he gets here I am going to make him do a trick so hard, it's gonna be the last stunt he'll ever try and make!"
"Save some for me man" said Butch. "I wanna see how much his bones can bend along with his bike and maybe when this is all over we can go and raid his uncle's bike shop for stuff."
Richie looks to Flat Tire who is straight out scared for his life. "Well, this is bad."
"We can do that later dudes, right now I wanna look for him and make him pay for making me get into trouble and not get what I want!" said Poppa Wheelie. "Let's keep searching, he has to be here somewhere."
"And let's not forget why we're here as well man, we wanna get the ladies we're looking for" said Scott. "I got my eyes locked onto the gal with the eagle thing, Jordan is so hot and pretty and that white haired kid can just go and eat dirt in the grave for all I care."
"Yeah, Tabby is one sassy girl and she is so cool!" said Butch. "Liam's no good for her, he's just some dumb hillbilly who's below people like me. I'm smart after all."
"We get it man, if we don't find Flat Tire, then we're going after the girls and put up the ransom plan in motion" replied Poppa Wheelie. "We capture those girls and then we send them the message and they have to bring us Flat Tire and Lincoln's little robot car and then we beat him up, we get out with the girls, we steal what we need from his dumb uncles bike shop and then we bail out of this town!"
Richie and Flat Tire are shocked to hear this. "Dude, we have to go and get Linc and the others, now."
"Yeah, good idea." Flat Tire and Richie sneak back to the bush they originally were and they grab their bikes and bail. Poppa Wheelie and his pals don't even notice them leaving, but Butch does see something else.
"Hey man, what's with that flying ship?" They spot the Gladius Battlecruiser high above the town.
"Leave it be, that's not our business" replied Poppa Wheelie. "Come on, let's keep searching."
(Ketcham Park.)
Lincoln, Jordan, Liam, Tabby, Luna and Sam are in the park and enjoying some peace and quiet time and also telling them the song they chose for the Middle School Talent Show.
"Wow. I guess that sounds like a good name for the good month we're in, you guys got the beat to it ready?" asked Sam.
Liam nods. "Darn right we do, and all we need to do now is rehearse, rehearse, rehearse and we'll be rockin' the whole talent show in no time flat."
"We got the tunes, we got the gear and we got everything all set and ready, but before we can get to that, we have to book it later at the tree house for some studying on our test for tomorrow" replied Tabby.
"Well, I'm sure you guys can ace the test and then get back to rehearsals and if the music club ain't available for rehearsals, maybe you can ask Darrel to use the Royal Woods Theater" said Luna.
"That is if the Royal Woods Theater is gonna be available" said Jordan. "Then we're gonna need a backup plan."
Sam then has an idea. "Got it! Tomorrow, or whenever, if you guys can't go to any of the places to practice, then call me and Lunes and I will bring you guys someplace for your rehearsals. I have a plan."
They all look to Sam. "You do?"
"Yup, but it's a surprise and like I said earlier, only for when you guys got nowhere else to rehearse" said Sam. "And you guys will have your little dude minds blowin' seeing it, well not literally."
Lincoln chuckles. "Can't wait to see what you got in store." then he spots two kids coming at them with great speed on their bikes, the eagles land down and also see who they are. "Is that Flat Tire and Richie?"
"Weird, I thought they'd be at the skater's park doing some tricks" said Liam. "What in tarnations are they doing here?"
"They seem scared about something. I can see it in their eyes" said Jordan. Hearing that did not sound good for Luna and Sam, they know trouble has started.
The two bike kids stop and go to them and both of them start talking in gibberish and very fast about what happened, honestly they cannot understand what the heck they are saying.
Flat Tire: Friend back and wants to take things, I am so doomed when he gets to me and wants to make things worse with his new pals!
Richie: Bikes, park and two big kids, coming here and bad intentions. Jordan and Tabby are targets, again and they won't keep they're promises.
Lincoln sighs and he puts the pieces of this messed up conversation words together. "Guys!" Richie and Flat Tire stop talking and Lincoln hands them both a soda. "Here, drink up. You two look like you rode all the way here without stopping."
Flat Tire and Richie then take a drink and they calm down. "Okay, so I think I know what you guys are saying." they all look to Lincoln. "Poppa Wheelie is back and he wants revenge on you and he must've broken out of private school at Beaverton and he has two friend with him who also wanna hurt you and they want to get Jordan and Tabby, and I also assume Poppa Wheelie wants Lulu as well."
They all look to Lincoln jaws dropped. "How the heck did you know that?" asked Richie.
"This is normal, we've been through this kind of hell before and it's not uncommon and we know what to do" said Lincoln.
"So, you got a plan bro?" asked Luna.
"I do, we're gonna need the rest of our friends and once we tell them what the issue is, then they're bound to help us and we're not using the forces from the outpost and the Battlecruiser, we can handle this on our own as a team" said Lincoln.
"Lincoln's right" replied Liam. "We got your back Flat Tire, no need to worry."
"Thanks, we know where they are now and chances they might start they're backup plan to kidnap Jordan and Tabby should they not find me there" said Flat Tire.
Lincoln then thinks. "Then let's rally the others and get the plan on motion." They all nod and begin to make some calls.
(Later.)
Poppa Wheelie, Butch and Scott make it to the park on their bikes and look around. "Okay, so finding Flat Tire was a bust, so we go with the backup plan."
"Yeah, we kidnap the two girls and we have the others know where they are and they bring us the little car and Flat Tire!" said Scott.
"This plan can't fail and sure as heck we're gonna win this" said Butch. "So, where the heck are they now?"
Poppa Wheelie looks around. "They should've been here, from what I overheard, Linc and Jordan are gonna be here along with Liam and Tabby. They posted they're selfie and they should be here."
"If they ain't here, then we go over to Loud's house and get the car or we go to the Rosato home or Tabby's home" replied Butch.
"This is gonna be one long day, but I know we can make this plan possible" replied Scott.
"Is that what you think?" The three boys turn around and they see Flat Tire and Richie on their bikes.
Poppa Wheelie smirks. "Well, well. You saved us the trouble of tracking you down at your own home and also losing our patience. Now I can get even with you for what you did to me!"
"You're not getting even with him." they spot Simon and Stella have arrived on their bikes.
"Whoa! The other girl I like, awesome! This day just got better! Kinda like a dream" said Scott.
"You might wanna keep dreaming punks!" They then spot Rusty, Polly, Mollie and Sadie arrive.
"This is nothing, you guys can't anything to us!" said Poppa Wheelie. "All of you guys are losers!"
"We're not losers, we're good friends and we have each other's backs." They spot Clyde and Chloe on their bikes and looking to them sternly.
"Whoa! Where the heck did you idiots came from?" asked Butch.
"The question is where the heck did all of us come from? You guys really are bad with what you guys had planned." They spot more and more of the kids from Middle School. Kat, Trent, Joy, Lance, Artie, Cookie, Jenny, Christina, Emma and the members of the cycler's club.
The three boys slowly back up, and see that they are now surrounded. "What the heck? Who are these other biker kids and why they are all so awesome?" said Poppa Wheelie.
"Because they're members and friends of Flat Tire of the Cycler's club." they then see Lincoln, Jordan, Liam and Tabby with all five Bald Eagles with them. "I guess you didn't know, Flat Tire started the cycler's club in Middle School, alongside Rusty and Richie and with Simon as well, and right now you guys are outnumbered."
"And outgunned!" said Jordan. Coming out from stealth and surrounding all of them are Duskwing's, Banshee's and Wraith's. Even the trees show they're not trees, but in fact they're Mirage Tanks and coming out from the ground is a Scorpion Tank.
Tabby chuckles. "Looks like you boys didn't think this through!"
They look around at everything. "What the?! What the heck is going on?! What is all of this?! When did this happen?!" said Poppa Wheelie in panic.
"Last week." They see Officer Schoffner, along with Luna, Sam and Bullet. "You boys are in so much trouble and none of you thought the whole town was rigged with so much new surveillance systems."
They spot the Sunburst Drone's that have been kept in stealth and land onto the shoulder of the cop and shows what they spoke earlier at the bike club about their plan. "And we're so glad we made a call to Beaverton" said Luna.
They spot three family vans and coming out are the parents of the three boys, and all of them are disappointed. Okay, so Butch only has his uncle and auntie.
"Wallace? What the heck are you doing?! Why are you doing this?!" asked Poppa Wheelie's mom.
"I…. I…" Poppa Wheelie then charges towards Flat Tire with rage. "You'll pay for this you idiot!"
But then he's hit in the head by Jenny who uses her tablet, thankfully it's got protective casing and now Poppa Wheelie is down for the count. "Don't even think about hurting him! He's our friend and we stick together and look after one another!" Jenny looks to Flat Tire and winks towards him, this makes him blush and chuckle a bit.
Butch and Scott try to bail, but they get ganged up by the cyclers club. "Circle people!" yelled Rusty. They circle around the two boys like how motorcycle guys do to their enemies. Butch and Scott could see just how outnumbered they are and they have no plan on how to get out of this.
Then Officer Schoffner goes to the two boys. "Scott Bowers and Butch Markus, you two just got yourselves a one way trip to juvie, along with your pal Wallace."
The officer then cuffs the two boys and the parents go to them and scold them and are disappointed in them, the other two go to Poppa Wheelie and they take him away as well. They felt ashamed that they're boy led this plan to do damage, he's like every other kid who has been trying to bring harm to Royal Woods and to everyone else.
Lincoln and Jordan and the others cheer and high five each other as they watch the boys get taken back to Beaverton. Jordan then uses a communicator and contacts the aircraft. "Thanks for the backup guys, you can continue back to the Gladius."
Banshees: Copy that.
Duskwing's: Roger and out.
Wraiths: Changing Vector command.
They watch as they reinforcements take their leave, then they start to talk to each other about what they did. They were more proud of their cycler friends for the assist.
Flat Tire goes to Jenny. "Thanks for the save back there, that was kinda awesome of you to do."
Jenny blushes. "Well, I was the closest one to have range to take down Wallace and I wasn't gonna let anyone take down a guy like you. You have been through hard times and made bad choices, but now you're changed and we got your back. You're welcome Flat Tire."
Flat Tire then makes the choice to do it now. "Jenny, I was wondering, if you'd like to hang out with me after the Talent Show? Like, we could do some gaming, and some other fun things to do."
Jenny smiles hearing this. "Yeah, sure. That would be awesome. I know we're all gonna be busy with the whole Talent show coming up, you have to rehearse you're stunt and I have to keep track on everything as the stage manager of the event."
The two kids then high five each other, all while Richie smiles seeing this and the others stand by him and smile at this as well. "Well, looks like Flat Tire doesn't need the advice from us anymore" said Simon. "He has his own idea and made the right move, pretty sweet of him and smart too."
"He already knows what to do and I could only guess we're gonna see more of them being together if they make this work out" replied Stella.
"Way to go man, nice job Flat Tire" replied Lincoln.
Luna and Sam also stand with them along with the eagles. "No one got hurt and this was all easy to handle, nice plan bro" said Luna.
"Flat Tire is our friend and sure as heck we're not gonna let him stand alone against whatever bad happens, we all have each other's backs" replied Jordan.
All while they all celebrate, they fail to see the limo of Leslie spot them. "What the heck happened there and what are they celebrating about?" asked Hope.
Leslie was getting suspicious. "Whatever happened, we'll find out soon."
To be continued…..
