The next day, Luke woke up in tears.
Charity was looking at reform schools while drinking her coffee. And she had also called the kids' grandfather and told him everything. He was disappointed, to say the least.
Forest came down and looked at reform schools with Charity.
Remy saw Luke had wet himself in his sleep.
Victoria had to clean him up and give him a bath. Remy had the maids take the bedsheets to be washed before he sat and kept Luke company in the bathroom as he was being bathed.
Skylia told Oliver and the siblings about this whole situation.
"We've been traumatized by worse. Luke will be fine. He can handle himself." Randy says.
But Oliver felt horrible for Luke and wanted to be there for him.
"Sure, go ahead, leave us for another couple of weeks. We won't miss you. Not like you actually want to stay here. Why don't I pack all your stuff so you can leave permanently?" Randy says
"I will!" Oliver says as Skylia was shaking.
"No! Please!" Skylia says.
"Randy. Go to your room. As of now, you're grounded!" Gabriel shouted. Randy stomped upstairs.
Gabriel comforted Skylia as Oliver went to pack a bag with stuff he would need for the next few days as he would be at Remy's place with Luke.
What the Waterlash kids failed to understand is that Luke was taking this harder than anything else he's been through. Plus they've been through worse, so it's hard for them to take things seriously.
At school, Luke was with Oliver, Remy, and the rest of his friends.
They were all comforting him. Stephen saw how broken Luke really was and felt really bad.
The twins looked over at the group.
"They don't need us. Stop being clingy." Randy says. Brandy didn't offer comfort to Luke because Oliver was there.
At lunch, Brandy sat alone like usual.
The cheer squad offered their company to Luke and offered to let him lead today's practice. If he was even able to.
Mugman offered Luke some of his lunch dessert as Elder Kettle always made extra cookies. Luke sniffed and took the cookies as he slowly ate them.
After school there was a note that said: Luke, Stephen, Remy, and the rest of your friend group, you win.
Oliver had no idea what that meant, then remembered the video Stephen uploaded. He split them up for good.
Skylia was going to get something Oliver forgot, but sees the siblings' stuff packed completely with a goodbye note saying that Oliver would be happy if they were gone. But Oliver was the one that left. Gabriel wasn't surprised by the move Oliver made.
"All of them are gone. No wonder Randy wanted Oliver gone. Those kids at his school must have wanted him away from Oliver." Skylia says and was beginning to shake as all 4 had gone their separate ways.
Luke was leading the cheer squad in preparing for the first home football game of the school year, which would take place in two weeks.
Skylia texted Oliver, wanting to know if he saw them, but Remy had Oliver's phone since he was at practice and deleted the text before he high-fived Stephen.
"Without siblings, Oliver will finally be free." Stephen says.
"Should we try this with Luke?" Remy asked.
"Yeah" Stephen says, then quickly changes his tune when he sees Luke sobbing again.
"Or maybe not…" Remy says.
After school, all the siblings do their best to support Luke.
"Here, you can have my snack." Lynn says, not hungry.
It turned out Lucy had a plan that night, which involved getting all the siblings angry enough to beat her up, destroy the house, and she would be alone and the siblings would let their tempers win. She even drew it out. Heck, Plan B had her getting kicked out by Charity, but Charity loved Lucy too much to do that to her.
Plan L was scratched up. It was clear she planned on severing her bond with Luke if things went wrong. All of these plans revealed that she was to go back to her old self.
"Is she going to be okay?" Lincoln says
"Luke needs us right now, not Lucy." Luna says.
Leni already plans to visit Lucy. And Luan was talking to Lori about this.
Ronnie Anne comforts Luke as the cups were considering moving out of the Inkwell Isles for good.
"How is she?" Leni asked
"She's going to have surgery tomorrow, but I don't think she'll survive it. She doesn't have enough blood." Amy says.
"Take some of mine." Leni says.
With Luke, he was sucking his thumb after practice. Oliver and Remy carried him to Remy's car.
They arrive at Remy's mansion as Victoria takes Luke inside.
At the hospital…
"Sigh, even if I do survive, I don't have anyone. Luke got traumatized just by looking at me and my siblings hate me, so I guess I got what I wanted." she says, looking down.
Charity was lecturing the girls. She took it upon herself to give them reform lessons. They listened to each and every word as they regretted everything they did.
A few weeks had passed. Luke was prepared for the game with the cheer squad.
Sal was watching this. It was his birthday, but no one ever remembers as it was the 14th. But he had to lead the Greendale squad. He felt nervous about it, but knew he couldn't let the squad down.
He arrived at the stadium with the squad as they warmed up across from the Oakley Academy squad.
Meanwhile, Lucy was sleeping.
Lola was using crystals to tear her skin off. Lucy did not plan this and was screaming then Lana hit her with the very expensive vase.
Lucy woke up in tears. "Stop, please!" Lucy screamed. Amy heard about who was really to blame and was soon calling Charity.
Oakley Academy won their game as the siblings cheered, happy for Luke. Oliver noticed none of his siblings were around for him.
"We got to celebrate!" Leni says as the credit was going to Luke. But Luke was sharing the credit with Oliver. He wasn't going to be selfish about this.
"At least you have siblings." Oliver says.
"You actually have me." Remy says.
"I mean my step-siblings, Brandy, Randy, and Emma." Oliver says.
"The ones you're better off without?" Garrett asked.
"Wait, you guys sent that video?! My new mother is a shell of her former self. She hasn't talked to me in months. She just sits in her room now." Oliver says. "Dad is at work and I never go back there. So she's all alone."
"I heard your dad plans on marrying Remy's mom…" Garrett says.
"What?! But I thought dad loved my new mom…" Oliver says.
"It's hard for him to communicate with her now." Stephen says.
"Yeah, because you were hell bent on breaking them up and wanting them to divorce. I actually cared for them, but now you just tore my life apart!" Oliver cried, actually wanting Skylia as a mother.
"Don't worry, we're going to be brothers and I promise to be a better brother to you." Remy says.
"Um, guys, our celebration?" Chalice says.
They arrive at Lush Rooftop. Oliver wasn't in a party mood. Neither was Luke. So they just grabbed mocktails and watched the others dance.
"He'll be in a party mood in December. He won't remember getting traumatized." Lynn says, knowing Luke's number 1 thing was his birthday.
He hadn't given it much thought.
"Come on, it's your birthday, the only thing that matters to you among other things…" Lynn says, trying to get Luke to forget Lucy, even though she missed Lucy.
Lucy was dreaming.
They slammed her head on the wall as Lisa used lasers to blast Lucy, causing her to scream in pain. They tossed her down the stairs as she fell through the sculpture as the chandelier fell on her, along with parts of the ceiling. They planned to toss her in the oven, but that was cruel. So they slammed the fridge on her legs as she was screaming.
"Come on, Lucy, you want love, here's some love!" Lola says tossing Edwin to her head, causing Lucy's head to split open as blood came out.
"I think we're going too far…" Lynn says.
"Did Lucy hold back when breaking our stuff? Come on, let's finish the deed!" Lola says as Lynn ran to her room, unwilling to continue the beating. Same with Luan.
"Cowards!" Lola says.
Amy was finding all this out and updating Charity, who looked more and more horrified by it all.
Lucy shook in her sleep.
At the manor, Charity wasn't hesitating to pack Lola and Lana's things. She was sending them to a strict boarding school in Illinois and had no plans to have them back in Michigan any time soon.
Lisa was upset. She had no gift for Beau. Lucy destroyed all of Beau's gifts that day, which was the only way to get under Lisa's skin. But Darcy had come a couple of days later and helped her fix one of the gifts. Lisa was very grateful for Darcy's help.
With Luke, he had loosened up a little. But not much. He danced with Ronnie Anne as fans cheered.
He then sat on the couch, drinking another mocktail.
Lynn left as she was feeling sick. She regrets everything she did to Lucy. She then heard the twins were being sent to a strict boarding school with no chance of them returning.
"Lola deserves a little tough love…she was the ringleader of everything we ever did to Lucy. Maybe she'll actually learn something this time." Lynn says coldly as she throws up. Luke noticed her vomiting.
Later, he was given September's Captain Of The Month award.
Lucy was getting dragged upstairs as she was hurt. They were going to toss her out, but Lynn stopped them long enough for Charity to come. Lucy used the little rush of adrenaline to run to Charity.
Lucy sniffed, feeling lonely. Silas came to see her. He was one of Lucy's nicer and much kinder friends.
"Silas?" Lucy asked.
"Hey, how are you feeling?" Silas asked her. "I know you've been through a lot over the past few days and all."
"I'm in a lot of pain. Rocky is finally moving back to Royal Woods in a week." Lucy says, blushing a bit. This was kinda troubling as Cuphead still had feelings for her. Tabby did, Silas did, and even Rocky, though they both denied it.
"Thanks for coming." Lucy says. "It means a lot."
"Of course." Silas says.
With Luke, he had left the celebration to help Lynn. They came to the manor as Lynn stumbled in. Luke took her to the bathroom and held her head over the toilet as she threw up 4 more times.
