Luna walked tiredly through the halls of the facility. She had barely gotten 5 hours of sleep and she felt as if she had been run through a wringer. She had micro slept through nearly every single one of her classes and learned little to nothing today. Not even coffee was enough to save her. But with school being done today, she could go home relax, and take a peaceful power nap before late-night patrols. Luna kept her groggy pace, disregarding her surroundings. That why she found herself oblivious to the fact she was completely walking straight in another girl's way. Luna found herself wide awake when she was startled by the sudden bump into her shoulder due to her unawareness.
"Sorry," Luna duly apologize, not even bothering to look at the person she grazed and continued to the exit.
"Shesh Luna. You look like you could use a nap," the girl responded with a chuckle. Luna felt her heart sank as she immediately recognized who it was and quickly turned around to meet a girl around her height with blonde hair and a blue streak that was wearing punk attire.
"Oh gosh, I'm really sorry Sam. I didn't even notice it was you. And yeah, you're right. I didn't get much sleep," Luna apologized frantically. She mentally began to curse at herself for how awkward she was making this and had to digress about her whole life story. Gosh, why couldn't she just act normal for once in front of a cute girl?
Sam noticed Luna's shift in behavior and laughed. She couldn't help it. This girl was too cute when flustered and she loved it. "It's totally cool, I'm fine Luna. It's not like you severed my arm or something," she joked.
Luna nervously laughed and nodded her head. God, she had a nice smile. "Yeah, you're right. Just tired."
"Well, just be awake for our concert in two weeks. I'd hate to see you snoring on the amplifiers," Sam reminded.
'Crud. I completely forgot.' Luna subconsciously facepalmed. "Uh, of course! I'd hate if that happened too," she said with bravado.
"I'm sure your snoring would still sound great too," Sam joked.
Luna then began to rub the back of her neck. "You think my singing is that good?"
"Yep!" her crush said with a supportive and cheery tone. Luna felt herself begin to go red, which Sam noticed. She knew Luna was totally crushing over her and was all ready to date her, only just waiting for the day she would ask her out.
Luna, on the other hand, was internally fangirling but kept her composure. She couldn't start freaking out like some toddler and their first crush. She needed to play this one cool. "Thanks, dude," Luna said with a chill tone, unaware she was still red. The two stared at each other for a bit with smiles on their faces. Luna began to get scared as she realized they weren't even saying anything anymore and Sam merely raised a brow, wondering what her crush would say next.
Before Luna could open her mouth, she heard a loud ding from her pocket. Sam heard her own phone go off too. "Sorry, let me just look at this really quick," Luna excused herself.
"Yeah, same," Sam agreed. The pair turned around and looked at their notification on their small screens. Luna's face morphed into that of annoyance as she read the block of text.
Lincoln: Hey Sis. Mind running an important errand when you get home?
Luna sighed, immediately understanding what Lincoln was telling her. Another freaking mission. She just wanted a nap, what more was there to ask. She quickly punched a short response on the digital keyboard.
Luna: sure Whatever
The rocker girl looked at her friend who had also finished replying to a text. "I- um, I gotta go Sam. Thanks for waking me up," Luna explained.
"Hehe, wouldn't want folks to think you're a zombie. But yeah, I gotta be somewhere after school. It's kinda important," she responded.
"I can relate. Have a nice day dudette," Luna waved.
"I guess I'll see you tomorrow and get some sleep. Bye, Lu," Sam said, turning around and departing the opposite direction Luna was going.
Luna smiled as she felt her vitality restored and was ready to face the day at full strength again. Though a nap did sound nice to her still. When she opened the exit door, Luna suddenly halted to a stop as she had just realized something. "She called me Lu," Luna whispered to herself excitedly.
Luna was seated at a table with three of her siblings standing in front of her: Lincoln, Lisa, and Lucy. "Here's your objective for today," Lisa said as she slid a sheet of paper to her titled, 'Extraordinary Human Profile #21' with a detail description of some girl and her powers, as well as an image taken of her.
"I don't know her real name but she goes by Bender. She knew but she's gonna be tricky. She's been having a hay day lately with her new found abilities and needs to be put to a stop. However, police have been having a hard time lately trying to catch her," Lincoln explained. "You think you're up for this?"
Luna read over her bio. Abilities: Elasticity Bestowment it said, causing her to raise a brow. "What exactly is her power? It sounds weird," Luna asked while scratching her head.
"She makes anything rubbery except sentient lifeforms. She can also change flexibility and toughness of the things she makes elastic," Lucy informed.
"She sounds tricky to beat. Is there anyone else that could take her on?" Luna wondered.
"We thought Luan or Lola could do it. But today, Luan got injured pretty badly in a fight and Lola is sick. So as of right now, the rest of us decided you'll be the best candidate for this mission. You're our most versatile member," Lincoln told her.
Luna tapped her finger on the table as she read over Bender's profile more. She looked at the image of her that appeared to be taken as she was evading police. Luna got a hold of her features and imprinted it into her brain to remember for later. She looked young, sporting jet black hair and blue eyes, wearing what appeared to a brown leather jacket, black jeans, and boots. She couldn't have been any older than she was. If this chick was stirring up so much trouble, Luna couldn't say no to this, even if she was a little tired. Her family needed her for this, and she wasn't gonna just let her personal issues get in the way of being a hero. Luna stood up and made her decision.
"I won't let you guys down," she said confidently with a smile. She tapped her chest and immediately her hero costume began to form around her body, starting off with a metallic grey color. Once her iconic suit design finished its transformation, the metallic grey shifted to The Nightclub's color scheme of purple, white, and black.
"Nightclub's on the case!" Luna shouted enthusiastically.
This series is cancelled... Yeah...
I tried, but I couldn't continue it. I'm too stressed out and this series is basically the reason why our writing group split. So I'm going to release the rest of the unfinished chapers, then I'm gonna reboot it, restart from scratch, "One Eyed Jack: Genesis" is basically it's disguised pilot while at the same time, being the final chapter with Lincoln as One Eyed Jack.
On this chapter? I honestly think it's dumb. Meh Writer's ideas are usually great but this is honestly the dumbest he did, he thought it was original, clearly he didn't read chapter 20 of "Loud heroes", to me this is a rip-off of that chapter: Saluna based chapter, elastic based villain, Luna and Sam get together at the end (which didn't happen in this chapter). Only difference is that Sam was supposed to be a hero named 'Red Sparrow'.
More unfinished chapters soon.
