Helluva Loud Adventures.
"Aftermath from the previous event."

(November 13. Somewhere in Royal Woods Michigan.)

We are at Ketcham Park, and some damage has gone down after some hoodlums from outside of Royal Woods attacked, and threw homemade pipe bombs all over the place, and right now everything is being repaired, and those hoodlums have been dealt with and are locked up, thanks to Lady Ace, and she is still here and she sees the damages being undone.

Lady Ace sighs in relief. "Everything here seems A-Okay now." She then recalls, she got a text message to come to the Silva Hound House, and so she sees that everything is fine, and "A-Okay" and so she takes off, leaving the others to handle this.

Tannins and Athena are there, and helping see the damages, and investigating the remains of these homemade pipe bombs. "This is low grade, and yet very effective" replied Tannins. "They seem truly capable of inflicting damage, and thus causing what we see now."

Athena then has an idea. "We could replicate them, and perhaps the crew of I.M.P could put them to good use, I mean they need something to dish out some area of effect bullshit, and I learned that one from a video game."

Tannins is confused and she looks to her sister. "Which one was it? An RTS or a MOBA?"

Then they hear some panic, and so the two sinners see a dead turtle, underneath the back treads of the Tiger Tank, and Leon and Sergei Spellman come out, and see this and Tannins doesn't seem surprised seeing this. "Congratulations, you murdered a living creature."

"Oh my lord, I didn't mean it!" said Sergei.

"You are so screwed! Wait, we're screwed!" said Leon.

Stella Zhau then comes over, and she has a remote control with her, and this gets Tannins attention and that's when it hits her and she snickers. "Hey, assholes. Look again."

They all look closely, and they see that it is not an actual turtle, and then Tannins speaks. "It is remote controlled, and not an actual reptile, it is a mere creation from Stella Zhau."

"Yeah, and I built this last month, and took me two weeks to make" replied Stella, and she doesn't look pleased. "Seriously, this thing was hard to make and now you broke it!"

"Oh, thank god it wasn't a..." Leon sees the stern and angry look from Stella. "We can fix this, and also pay for if we can't fix this." Martin McKenzie goes over and sees this and he is so confused, then he speaks to Tannins and Athena.

"Alright, so everything here in the Park will be undergoing repairs, and even this damaged toy turtle robot as well. Also, there is this very odd and weird incident going on near the border of Mexico."

This has them confused and they ask. "What?"

"Apparently, there have been rumors of some illegal pug smuggling going around..."

They all remain silent, and then they ask. "What?"

(Somewhere at Franklin Avenue.)

Lady Ace is flying towards the Silva Hound House, and she is kinda confused as to why would Lincoln Silva Hound wanna talk to her, but another part of her knows that this has something to do with what had happened days ago, and she is still upset about that.

'I hope Katherine Mulligan and Alyssa DiMartino are doing fine, they didn't deserve that.'

Lady Ace spots the house, and so she lands at the backyard, and then she heads inside using the sliding backdoor and she goes to the Living Room. "So, what's going on with..." Lady Ace sees Lincoln Silva Hound is here, alongside Katherine Mulligan and Alyssa DiMartino. "You? Wait, what is this?"

Lincoln then speaks. "Just here to let you check on the two women that you helped save."

Alyssa and Katherine go over, and they ask. "Are you doing alright?"

Lady Ace nods. "Yeah, I am and thanks for the concern. But, are you two doing fine? I mean, what went down was horrible and you two didn't deserve to bear witness what would happen to the two of you, especially you Katherine." Katherine Mulligan knows what she means, but Lady Ace also doesn't know about something that she secretly has within her emotions.

Alyssa DiMartino speaks first. "After what went down, it was uneasy for me to sleep in my own home, because that is where I was abducted and I spoke with Lincoln, and he is alright with it and so is his family. I am moving out of my home and headed somewhere safe and where it won't be trouble. Franklin Avenue, and not too far from this place."

Lady Ace is surprised, and she nods. "If that is your choice, then I'll be alright with it. What about you Ms. Mulligan?"

Katherine Mulligan looks down nervously. "Not doing so well for me, I didn't wanna do what she was going to force me to do. I just... It felt wrong, and I didn't wanna do something such as that to you..." She then turns red. "Without permission..."

Lady Ace goes wide eyed, and she is surprised. "Wait, what?"

Katherine Mulligan nods, and she blushes. "I have a thing for you, and it happened a day after you showed up and started being this icon and superhero. I have had this crush for some time, and I just... didn't know what to do, and it would be embarrassing for me to say this, but I sometimes have dreams about you... Very, romantic and intimate dreams."

Lady Ace didn't see this coming, and neither did Alyssa DiMartino. Lincoln doesn't seem surprised. 'I saw this shit coming.'

Lady Ace is baffled. "Wow, this is just... Wow, I didn't think." she sees the nervous look from Lady Ace, and deep down Amanda Bright knows her well, they have been good friends and a part of her likes Katherine Mulligan, and they have been through a lot for some time for the past few months, and then Lady Ace places her hand onto the shoulder of the news reporter, and this gets her attention.

"Katherine, I am flattered and a relationship is something that seems too fast for me and dangerous, because I am a superhero, and I don't wanna put you in danger." Katherine Mulligan nods, but then Lady Ace continues. "Because, Lady Ace doesn't wanna put you in danger, but I doubt the other me would wanna get you in harm's way, and perhaps things could simmer down and we can spend some time to truly get to know each other, outside from the work we do."

Katherine Mulligan is confused, but Lincoln knows what is going on here.

Lady Ace then has rectangular glasses in her hands, and she puts them on. "Because I would be A-Okay to go on a date, with you."

Seeing her eyes like this, makes sense to Katherine Mulligan and now she knows who she is. "Amanda Bright?"

Alyssa DiMartino is surprised as well. "The Journalist?"

Lady Ace then holds Katherine's hands. "I trust you, and I hope you won't tell anyone who I am. After what had happened, I think I wanna try something new that could help comfort us both, and then see where it would all lead for the both of us. I wanna try it, and I know you do too."

Katherine smiles and she blushes. "Yes, yes I will keep your secret safe and... I guess it's a date."

The two woman blush red and are happy for this, and so is Alyssa DiMartino and she speaks. "I will keep this a secret too, you can trust me." she then looks towards Lincoln and she whispers. "Also, tonight I could use some Silva Hound time."

Lincoln chuckles. "Yeah, alright. I guess, we can make that happen tonight."

Katherine Mulligan is confused. "Ummm, what?"

Lady Ace blushes and then she speaks. "That one is hard to explain, but if we make this work then we can see if a threesome is possible." Lincoln can tell where this is going.

"To be continued in the next chapter folks!"

A/N: Things are doing alright now, and even for Lady Ace and her new future with someone she has a liking to. I hope that you all enjoyed reading this newly posted chapter folks!
