Fight Back

Ryans POV
My daughter was right. Its high time I fight back against Lydias ruling. If not for me, then for Zoe. "Lydia we need to talk" I say. "Shouldn't you be working? Oh! Did you come up with something?" She asks. "Actually, yes. I dont want to be mayor" I say. "What? But Zoe needs you to be mayor" she says. "No she doesnt!" I snapped. She was taken back. I took a deep breath and calmed down. "Zoe doesn't need me to be mayor. She needs me to be a dad. To be there for her. I missed out on so much with her because of you. You tricked me all those years ago but you wont trick me now. Zoe never wanted me to be mayor. It was just you. You wanted me to mayor so that you could pretend to be some prissy house wife but Im not taking this anymore!" I say. "What I did, was for the good of our family" she growls. "No. It was for you. Its always been for you. You dont care about this family. You only care about yourself and money" I say. I went to walk away. I could see Zoe recording from the hallway. I didnt care though. "Papa!" Zoe screams. I turned around and Lydia punched me in the face. I backed up a but and Zoe ran to me. I looked Lydia dead in the eyes. "We. Are getting. Divorced." I snarled. She hesitated. "Fine. You can keep that thing. I dont want a faggot in my house" she says. She slammed the door on her way out. "Papa are you ok?" Zoe asks. "Im fine" I say. "You're bleeding" she says. "Ill be ok, did you get that on video?" I ask. She nods. "Ok, come on. We have to see Marshall" I say.

Wyatts POV
I woke up with a slamming headache. I went to the kitchen, found the medicine cabinet, and took a Tylenol. I grabbed a Pepsi from the fridge and started drinking it. I went back to my room, changed, and did my morning routine. I was about to head out to work but I stopped. I know I made him sad but he always gets coffee in the morning. I went to his room and creaked open the door. "Dad?" I ask. I went in and theres no one here. I called him. It rang once and then hung up. I didnt hear it go off. I ran out and started my run to the fire station. "Marshall! Misty!" I yelled. Misty walked out into the lobby. "Wyatt. Are you ok?" She asks. "Is my dad here? I cant find him" I say. "No, he's not here. He just left?" She asks. "No. He didnt" Marshall says coming in. "You know where he is?" I ask. "I know where he's headed. He told me to watch over you" he says. "You didnt tell me?" Misty asks him. "I was going too but I didnt think he'd show up this early" Marshall says. "Wheres my dad?" I ask. "Patch left last night after your little chat. He's going to Raiders Valley. He said he was gonna find your mother" he says. I stood there stunned. I hesitated to speak. "When is he coming back?" I ask. "Whenever he finds her" he says. Andy and Spotter walked in. "Guess whos back and ready for training!" Spotter says. Him and Andy are laughing and smiling. "Are you ok Wyatt?" Andy asks. I straightened up quick. "Yeah. Im ok" I say. "Go on back boys. Ill be there soon" Marshall says. Spotter and Andy went to the garage. "He will be back soon Wyatt" Marshall says. "Yeah. Ok" I say. The door opened. Zoe and her dad came in. "Woah, what happened to you Ryan?" Misty asks. "Lydia punched me" he says. "What?!" Marshall and I said. Zoe held up her phone and the video played. "Where is Lydia now?" Marshall asks. "She left. I dont know" he says. Zoe shrugged. Marshall looked at me. "Wyatt, get Andy and go. Search the whole town. Bring her in" Marshall says. "Ok uncle" I say running out. "Andy lets go!" I say. We got in the car and I explained the situation to him. "Where should we go first?" I ask. "I know just the place" Andy says.

We pulled up to the mansion. I whistled. Thats impressive. We got out and knocked on the door. Grand-Fa opened the door. "Hi Grand-Fa" we say. "Boys! Dont you two look good in your police uniforms. What brings you by?" He asks. "We wondering if youve seen Lydia. The mayors sister in law?" Andy asks. "Oh yeah. She drove by here. Parked her car at the convenient store. I dont think she stayed there though" he says. "Thank you Grand-Fa" I say. "Bye" Andy says. "Have a good day boys!" He says. We got in the car and I drove to the convenient store. "Is that your dad?" I ask. Andy nodded. We got out and went over to him. "Dad!" Andy says. "Hey Alex" I say greeting him. "Hi kids" Alex says. "Whats going on?" Andy asks. "I was justworking on the construction for the store after that fire." He says. "Did you see Lydia?" I ask. "Oh. Yeah, she came by here. She parked her car in the lot after I marked it off. Bitch ran over three traffic cones. I think she ran back that way, but Im not sure" he says. "Thanks dad" Andy says. I called Luna. She didnt pick up. I called her dad.

"Hello?" He asks
"Cole, we need a tow over here. Its at the convenient store. Can you bring it to the fire station?" I ask
"Yeah sure. Ill have Luna tow it over. I dont why you didnt call her. Its her job" he says. "She didnt answer me. Anyway I gotta go. Thanks Cole" I say.

"Lets go" i say. Andy and I got in the car and drove off road behind the store. We got onto the back road and took it to the apartment building. "She runs away, and goes to work?" Andy asks. "She works here?" I ask. He nods. "Front desk" he says. We walked in and there she sits at the front desk. "Lydia" I say. She looked up. "You're under arrest for the assult of your husband. Anything you say, can and will be used against you" I say as Andy handcuffed her and brought her with us.

Marshall is dealing with Lydia. Luna is here with the car. "Luna! Why didnt you answer my call earlier?" I ask. She didnt answer me. She just glared down at her clipboard. "How are you paying for the tow?" She asks. "Luna? Talk to me" I say. "Pay" she snaps. Misty came out with a check. "Here Luna. Thank you" she says. "Thank you, Misty" Luna says happily. "Are you mad at me?" I ask. She laughed and looked at me. "You left me!" She says. She bonked me on the head with her clipboard. "You didnt even try to save me. You just left! The second my dad came home, you left. Leaving me to figure out what to tell my dad." She says. "Luna Im-" she cut me off. "The worst part about this, the worst part, is that I told you something Ive never told anyone and you didnt even try to console me" she says. I was speechless. "Im sorry" I say. She laughed. "Yeah. I bet you are. See you at school" she says getting in her truck.
