I don't own Loonatics Unleashed
Loonaticslover13: Thank you so much for the review! Yep! Ace is almost getting there but will it be too late? The next girl who gets kidnapped will be revealed shortly. Also, I'm sorry for not saying this in the last chapter but you're welcome! It was my pleasure to read your story about Tech. It was wonderfully portrayed and very accurate with the show's details and your imagination combined as well. I hope to see more of those character analysis from you :D Enjoy this chapter! :)
Ophicus Sam limped back to the cabin where Michael rested. A rush of pain shot up through his leg when he walked. He had managed to stop the blood from seeping out but he could do nothing about the pain. He swore that after Croc King was finished with Quinn, he was going to use her pelt as a throw rug.
He finally arrived to the cabin and walked inside the warm shelter. The living room was empty but he heard the crackling fire in the fireplace and muffled voices in another room. He decided to sit down on the green colored sofa that was next to the fireplace and make himself warm and comfortable. Once he sat down and shut his eyes, he heard a creak from behind him. He swiftly turned his head and saw Michael pulling Fleur out of the room. Sam jumped up from his couch and looked at the both of them. "What in tarnation did ya to to her?" he asked as he looked at Fleur up and down.
Fleur's face was terribly bruised. Her lower lip trembled as a line of red blood seeped from the side of her mouth. Sam noticed the harsh bruises on her and the ripped fabric that was swaying about. Michael looked from Sam to Fleur. "Oh, we were just having a little fun," he answered with a dangerous sparkle in his eye, "want a turn?" he asked as he flung Fleur in front of him.
Fleur staggered forward and from her lack of balance she fell in front of Sam's feet. Sam looked down at her and then noticed that she also had bruises on her back. "No," he simply said as he walked around her and sat back on the sofa.
"So," Michael said as he stepped around Fleur's body and approached Sam, "get up," he said in a low voice at her and she immediately obeyed his command. His eyes made their way to Sam, "did you manage to capture that wolf?"
"No," Sam said, "she bit my leg before I could."
"Aww, poor baby," Michael sarcastically said in a babyish voice.
Sam averted his eyes from the fireplace and glared and Michael. "What's that supposed to mean?"
"It means that you're a scardy-cat," Michael simply said, "you're worse than this one," he flung his arm towards Fleur to show about who he was talking about. Fleur flinched at his gesture, fearing that he might hit her again. "I mean, come on I could have taken down that dog myself with no trouble at all."
"Yeah until she bites you," Sam pointed out.
"HA!" Michael laughed, "she can try but I'll pull her teeth out."
"Oh yeah?" Sam asked in a challenging voice, "I'd like to see you try."
"You can," Michael said. "We'll go out and find that wolf now and take her down in one fell swoop!"
Sam wa skeptical about his plan but he only nodded. "Fine but what about her?" he asked as he looked at Fleur who was sitting on a chair.
Michael looked over at her. "She knows that of she does anything that I don't approve of, she's going to get it. Right ma cher?" he asked with a bad French accent.
Fleur was trying to gain back her consciousness. She slowly moved her head around to relieve the pain in her neck but when she did that move, she got dizzy and that didn't make her feel any better.
"See? Too weak. Even for a superhero," Michael said to Sam.
"Then let's go and get this over with," Sam said as him and Michael left the cabin and went to hunt for Quinn.
Once the left, Fleur slowly got up from the chair and looked around the room. She needed to find something that would help her teammates find her. She wasn't going to try running again for she felt that she was too weak to even take another step. Her right vision was mildly blurred from all the hitting that Michael had given her. She turned her head and saw a figure of what looked like a phone or a cell phone. She staggered over to the table and picked up a communication device that looked like a cell phone. This black colored cell phone belonged to Michael and she knew that she wasn;t supposed to touch it but she had to take the risk. She turned her eyes back to the door to make sure that Michael and Sam wouldn't walk in and catch her talking on the phone. She turned her attention back to the phone and punched in the numbers to a phone number that she hoped they would pick up.
The Loonatics were still trying to figure out some more clues. The only big clue that they had was the encounter with Gorlop.
"Don't you guys think that it would be someone from this planet who had contacted Gorlop to come here?" Tech asked his teammates.
"Ya might be on ta sometin'," Ace responded, "but we need ta know someone dats evil enough ta do this."
"The-only-villain-that-I-can-think-of-is-Croc-King," Michelle said. When she mentioned that name, her eyes lit up as an exagerrated gasp escaped from her throat and she looked at her teammates. "Do-you-think-it-was-him?"
"Impossible," Andrea said as her nose twitched, "he's stuck in out handy-dandy security prison cell, which is built by our smart friend, Quinn Wolf."
"Only she makes mistakes on her contraptions," Miranda added.
"And I didn't ask for your opinion," Andrea shot back at the duck.
Having had enough, Miranda did nothing else but glare at Andrea and stick out her tongue at her. Andrea peeked over and saw what Miranda was doing. She didn't know what else to say but glare in silence. Her ears perked up when she heard a cell phone ringing. "Your picked is buzzing," she said to Pierre as she pointed at his coat pocket.
Pierre reached into his pocket and pulled out his cell phone and looked at the number. "Je ne sais pas zis number."
"How many girlfriends do you have?" Miranda asked him.
The whole team, including Duck, looked at her as if she had lost her mind, which was nothing new considering that she had betrayed them four months ago. "Je ne suis pas, how you say, a womanizer," Pierre informed her with a deathly glare.
"Jeeze, can't you people take a joke?" Miranda asked.
"Unfortunately no, considering how bad you are at making jokes," Andrea shook her head.
"You are starting to get on my nerves!" Miranda yelled at Andrea.
"You have been getting on my nerves four months ago!" Andrea shot back at her.
Michelle hit her head with her hand. She had the urge to yell at them but she knew that if did, it wouldn't be at all effective. Thankfully Ace whistled at them and that seemed to get them to stop talking. "Thank-you," she thanked the yellow and black rabbit as he gave her a smile.
"Answer it," Lexi said to Pierre, "maybe it could be Fleur."
"Maybe you're right," Pierre said as he pushed 'answer' on the cell phone and put the phone on his ear. "F-Fleur?" he stuttered.
Fleur gasped when she heard his voice. "Pierre, c'est moi!" she said, thankful that she had managed to reach him.
Pierre's facial features turned in surprise when he heard her voice. "Mon Dieu! Je suis très heureuse to hear from vous!"
"Moi aussi!" Fleur said in a happy tone. "Je suis désolée. Je could have hurt you so much."
"What are vous talking about?" he asked her.
"About moi breaking up with you," she said getting to the point, "un personne set moi up to do eet. Je t'aime toujours. Zis wasn't ze way for us to spend out four month anniversaire."
"At least nous are still together," he said with a slight shurg and a smile.
"Are you getting information where she is or exchanging love letters?" Miranda said to him.
Pierre glared at her yet again. "What I do with mon amour eez my business," he said as Miranda rolled her eyes at him. "Fleur where are vous?" he asked her.
Fleur's eyes searched around the room. "Inside un cabin dans un forest, mais s'il vous plaît, hurry!"
"Okay, okay we'll be over zere," Pierre said, "just, how you say, stay put!"
Fleur nodded as if he was standing in front of her. "D'accord. Au revoir mon amour," she said.
"Au revoir ma cher," he said. The phone lines disconnected and he faced the team.
"Man," Michelle said as she had a dreamy look at her face. She crossed her hands over her heart and looked at Pierre, "you guys are so romantic."
"Compliments to my ancestor," Pierre said, "without his character, I would never be ze person I was."
"You're not," Duck spoke up.
"What do vous mean?" he asked him.
"You're not a skunk, you're not flirting with cats. You're the owner of Ze Max Arena."
"I was ze owner of Ze Max Arena!"
"But Fleur's ancestor was a cat," Miranda jumped in, "so it kinda makes sense."
"Anyway!" Tech yelled as he got their attention. "We're getting off topic here. What did Fleur say to you?" he asked Pierre.
"She said zat she was inside a cabin inside a forest," Pierre answered him.
"Okay good," Tech said, "maybe that's where Quinn and Fleur are."
"And Bridget," Slam added.
"Den let's go and save the goils before it's too late," Ace said as he got ready to lead his teammates to the forest.
"Whoa, hold your horses there cowboy," Andrea said as she held her arms out in front of her, "we stay out here much longer and we freeze to death."
"No-you-don't," Rev shook his head at Andrea.
"Maybe for you but for me, I don't want to freeze my cotton tail off," Andrea answered him.
"No one is going to freeze," Miranda spoke up, "either deal with it or don't help us." When she said that, Andrea scrunched her eyes at the mallard.
Michelle quickly looked from the rabbit and then at the duck. She could sense a major tension traveling through the both of them. "Grab-them-before-they-explode!" she yelled as she and Rev quickly pulled Miranda and Andrea away from each other.
Lexi shook her head at the duck and the rabbit. "Who do those two remind me of?" she asked. Of course she knew the answer but she couldn't help but ask it anyway.
"Me an' Duck?" Ace asked her as she gave him a warm smile in return.
Tech put a hand on his face and let out a sigh. "I think it's a good idea that we should just go and find them. Three girls are missing and we don't know what has happened to them."
"Well we only know that one of them was taken away by Gorlop," Lexi said.
"And two had mysteriously disappeared," Duck said as he waved both of his hands in the air.
"More like kidnapped," Tech corrected him, "which means that where one girl is, the others are more likely to be at the same place as well."
Ace nodded. That seemed like a good possibility. He only hoped that they could get there in time.
