Family of Two.
Chapter 180: The wounded Maltese.
(Royal Woods Animal clinic.)
Lana and Lola both look onto the poor little Maltese resting on the bed in the room, thankfully she's recovering and doing fine. They managed to bring her to the animal clinic on time, and right before they nearly lost her too.
The twins then see Lucy and Lisa stand next to them. "Don't worry girls, I'm sure she'll be fine."
Lola and Lana hug Lucy and she hugs them back. Lisa then rethinks of the plan on how to handle with Lacey St. Clair.
'If I can recall, Lincoln and Luna are in cahoots with the FutureTech outpost, perhaps they can ask them for the full camera system of the St. Clair mansion so we can figure out what had happened. I have changed and as of now, I do not appreciate someone abandoning this innocent canine.'
Lincoln and Luna soon walk back into the room. "Hey girls."
They all go towards them. "Luna, Lincoln. Please tell us she'll be fine" said the Twins.
Lincoln smiles. "Don't worry girl, Victorie is gonna be fine." The twins smile and they hug Lincoln, and he hugs them back. This makes Lucy and Lisa smile. The Maltese was gonna make it.
Luna then intervenes. "She did suffer from tons of damage, she'll have to remain here for probably till the end of the week. She'll need tons of rehabilitation and also she has no owner, from what I told them."
They depart from the hug, and look to the two louds. "Did you tell them who did this?" asked Lola.
"We did, and the veterinarian is gonna call the cops, but they won't prove she did this unless we have evidence that Lacey committed this crime of animal abuse" replied Lincoln.
Lana then looks to Lisa. "Can't Lisa do her science stuff to help her? She can find the proof and…"
"Sadly I cannot do that, Lana" replied Lisa. "As much as I would love to help with tracking down the evidence needed for the crime that Lacey committed, I cannot be allowed to engage into any form of science or experimenting, otherwise I would be in deep trouble."
This upsets the twins, but then Lucy sees a loop hole to this. "True that you can't experiment and do what you have done before, but it doesn't mean you can come up with a plan."
Lisa grins. "Indeed." She then looks towards Lincoln and Luna. "Would it be possible for the two of you to make contact with the FutureTech allies you both are allied with? Perhaps they could aid us in finding the truth behind the brutal assault and abuse given to this poor creature."
Luna thinks about this. "Hmm, we can give it a shot. But we can't promise that they'll help us."
Then Mrs. Johnson comes in. "Girls." The twins go over and hug they're mom and have tears flowing from their faces and she hugs them back. "There, there. It's gonna be alright."
Agnes then sees the poor dog on the bed and then she looks towards Luna. "So, it is true. Lana did find this poor wounded dog. What happened to her?"
Lola then responds. "Lacey did this, mom. This is her dog and she's the one who left it."
"Yes we don't have proof on how to make sure it was her" replied Lucy.
Then Luna gets a call. "Hello?"
"Luna Loud, this is FutureTech CEO Martin McKenzie. We picked up your message and we're inbound to the outpost. Stand by and get there. ASAP!"
Luna then puts her phone away. "Mrs. Johnson, permission to let Lola and Lana come with us to handle the issue and deliver justice to this dog?"
Agnes nods. "Just as long as I come with them, why? What's going on?"
Luna smiles. "We got an ally who can help us."
(Outside of Royal Woods.)
Luna and Agnes Johnson's car arrives to the outpost and the massive gate opens and they walk inside and see the advanced technology there. Luna, Lincoln and Lucy have been there before.
Lisa on the other hand is fascinated by the advanced technology being held there. From massive four-legged machinery all the way to hovering aircraft with cryo-systems. "This is fascinating and unbelievable!"
"I honestly don't get what I'm looking at" replied Lola. She passes by some Mammoth Tank.
"This place looks so, so cool!" said Lana. She looks to the open hood of the Hunter Tank. "So cool!"
"We've been here before and it all doesn't seem new to me." Lucy then looks to the Great Gate and smiles. "But I like seeing that gate, the designs on it is wicked cool."
Luna then finishes answering her phone. "Alright, Luce I called your mom and Maggie and they said they're fine with you still coming with us to handle this crime we found, and Lisa, I spoke to your mom, Darcy and Teri and they're also okay with it. Just as long as I get you two back home before bed time."
"I can agree to those terms" replied Lisa. "Now, where is this leading role of this base?"
The portal is made at the Great Gate and they see someone fly through and land in front of them. They look to the man in the suit and it slowly disintegrates into nanites and reveals Martin McKenzie and he puts on his glasses.
"Martin McKenzie, at your service Ms. Loud." Martin then looks to the other kids. "What are they doing here?" He didn't seem happy to see Lisa, but he got startled when Lucy appears out of nowhere.
"They're with us sir, they were the ones…. Well, Lana was the one who found a wounded dog" replied Lincoln.
They all proceed to tell Martin what they found and what may have happened and everything they just said is raising a lot of illegal and criminal acts of issues within Martin.
"Sweet Christopher Columbus Saint Josephine, what?!"
Lisa straightens her glasses. "We know Lacey committed this, after her dog made one small mistake at the dog show. It is obvious that she punished her dog and to evade the crime, placed her within the box near the trash cans at the Royal Woods Mall, hoping for the garbage truck to arrive."
Lana likes garbage trucks, but the thought of Victoria being placed into the garbage truck sounds cruel.
Martin thinks about this. "She didn't choose to leave the dog by the trash cans at the neighborhoods because chances someone would notice and report this, so she chose the mall since people wouldn't notice. Clever and yet, vile."
Lucy asks the man. "Can you prove she did it?"
Martin cracks his knuckles and has his tablet and tech glasses ready. "Time to hack." They follow Martin and watch as he just sits down and he uses his glasses and tablet to track down surveillance footage from the Royal Woods Mall.
"Alright, I got something." They see the footage from the mall camera outside and it shows the limo of St. Clair, and they see the girl drop off the box and speak towards it and then walk back to the limo and it drives off.
"She did leave her there!" yelled Lana. "That monster!"
"Alright, time to hack something else." Martin goes to work and he bypasses multiple firewalls and he breaches them. "Got it and…. Sweet Chrysler me."
They look to the footage and see Lacey after the dog show, she places her dog onto the stool and scolds her for failing. Lacey then slaps her dog and then picks her up and yells at her some more, then she drops her.
Victorie tries to go to her owner's leg and whimper, but Lacey kicks the little Maltese away and she hits the wall, hard. Lacey then pulls out a lacrosse stick and she begins to beat her dog with it.
After that, the camera switches to nighttime and they see Lacey drag her wounded dog and she puts the chain on her and tosses the canine into the dog house. She rants and complains as she walks back inside.
The next footage is the day after and they see Lacey go towards the dog house and grab her dog who is begging her to stop. Lacey then drags her to the training ground in a large room and she forces Victorie to train harder for next year's dog show.
Lacey even uses things a dog would fear, such as the dog whistle, a belt and Lacey has a shock collar ready for Victorie. She also seems to be on the phone and talking to someone, something about a delivery of some sort.
After a whole afternoon, Lacey sees her dog on the ground and whimpering from exhaustion and pain.
Lacey yells at her dog and kicks her some more. But Victorie isn't' responding and so she grabs the nearby box and she puts the dog in there and leaves the house and into the limo.
Lincoln, Luna, Lucy, Lisa, Lola, Lana, Agnes and Martin are shocked and jaws dropped. "What?!"
"Did she literally just do that to that innocent dog?!" yelled Agnes Johnson.
"Dude! What the heck?! What the hell?!" said Luna.
"That was way too dark and way too cruel, I wanna bury her in the ground and give her no tombstone" replied Lucy.
"Such blasphemy! She dare do this to an innocent animal! I for one have changed from my old ways, and wish not to inflict that kind of harm to a pure-bred such as her. She has to be taken to justice!" said Lisa. She is really ticked off at what she has seen and sheds a few tears. "That canine didn't deserve it!"
Lincoln remains speechless and he goes over and hugs Lola and Lana.
Lincoln then looks to Martin who managed to record all the footage and he makes many copies. "Sir, we need to….."
"Already on it." Martin then makes a call. "Someone is about to be in for some serious trouble. We should also head to that mansion and watch as it all go down."
Martin also sends the footage to the police and the two detectives and even the recorded confessions on how Lana and the others found the dog.
(ST. Clair mansion.)
Cop cars are all over the place, and cops come out from the backyard with Lacey St. Clair in handcuffs and she is angry, and also covered in leaves. What happened to her?
Lacey overheard the sound of sirens and she knew she was in trouble, so she high tailed it out of her room and tried to flee from the backyard, only to be encountered with the K-9 unit and she gets chased till she lands into a bush and is surrounded by cops.
The parents of Lacey try to speak to the cops on what charges she is arrested for, and so Officer Schoffner shows them the footage and Martin shows everyone else in the neighborhood and social media. His way of justice, through the social hub.
The parents are shocked and horrified, they questioned why the mansion was quiet and they didn't hear the sound of four small legs, the dog was gone.
Lacey then sees Lola, Lana and the others looking at her. "You! You two did this to me!"
"Yeah, we did!" yelled Lana. "Because we found her and we saved her too! You left your dog after you hurt her, she was just a dog who made one small mistake and this is how you treat Victorie?!"
Lacey growls. "That mutt is a disgrace as you are, Lana! You and Lola are just as disgusting and failures as Victorie! She failed me and made me look like a fool, I should've finished her off and dropped her off at the dump, or a river!"
The crowd gasps and Martin is live streaming this. "Someone's in trouble!"
Lacey then realizes what she just said and she looks around and sees everyone who are shocked and angry. "Wait…. I didn't mean to." She then sees her parents and their disappointed looks towards their daughter. All this time, they never knew Lacey was a cruel girl.
The parents then finish talking to the officers and they both walk back into the house, as the husband comforts his weeping wife.
"M-Mommy? Daddy?"
The cops then drag Lacey into the squad car, she'll be going to juvie for this crime and it seems like the St. Clair parents don't want anything to do with her.
Lana and Lola sigh in relief that it was all over. They then talk to their mom and ask her a question, and she agrees to it.
Lincoln, Luna, Lucy and Lisa smile seeing this. "Well, it looks like they're slowly gaining the trust from the people of Royal Woods" said Lucy.
"They're bound to become the talk of the school come tomorrow" replied Lisa.
"That's gonna be something they'll never let down" replied Lincoln.
Luna then sees something. "What the heck?"
They see this delivery truck and the delivery man comes out and sees everything. "Umm, I got a package here for Lacey St. Clair."
They see the box moving and making small barking sounds. Martin is wide eyed and so is everyone else. "You gotta be kidding me."
Lincoln and the others look into the box and see pure-bred poodle looking them and barking. "Well, this turned into a problem" said Lucy. "Now what?"
A/N: Justice for the sweet little pure-bred Maltese, Victorie and down with Lacey! We'll know what happens next in the next chapter. Leave a review and tell me what you all think.
