New Year's Angel (R5 Fan Fiction -Rydellington)

Here we go

May 7th 2014

Ross

                “Where the hell is Ryland with that car? It is already almost 2am. If we don’t get this started now we are going to have to call the whole thing off!” Considering we had made this plan around 6pm yesterday you would think that by this point all of our not so hard tasks would have been completed. Rocky and I had only taken about an hour to collect some weapons. Since Riker had called Officer Nichols, we had figured that it would be wise for us to not carry any heavy duty weapons such as guns. So we had decided to go old school Peter Pan style. Basically we had found a bunch of sling shots, collected some rocks, and stuck a couple kitchen knives in our boots. Let’s be honest here. We are not violent people and though I will do anything it takes to save my sister, I am pretty sure that five 6 feet tall guys will be able to take on a couple random kidnappers; especially when they are dads.

                “Ross, relax. He will be here.” I turned to look at Riker. “Seriously Riker, how are you so calm right now?” Riker sat down and put his head in his hands. Now that I think about it he had been doing that a lot tonight. “Honestly I am not that calm. I just keep reminding myself that freaking out is not going to help anything and so far that has helped. On the inside, I am literally freaking out. If I could have thought of any other way to do this, I would not be sending all of us into a potential full out fight scene. I am the oldest. I should be protecting everyone, not throwing them into the fire. The only reason I am still staying calm is because I know that Officer Nichols will be around the corner waiting for our signal.” Rocky sat down beside Riker on the floor. “Riker, you know that is not how it is. We are all here to protect each other. We would never let you go in alone and besides we all want to save Rydel. You know Ellington may want to save her for different reasons but, still.”

                Everyone started laughing. Leave it to Rocky to lighten the mood. Just then a big black creeper van pulled up in front of the house. Ellington stood up getting all of our attention. “Uh you guys, I hate to break up the touchy feely moment here but we got company.” He walked towards the window and suddenly turned back towards us. “Okay you may not want to believe this, but that is Ryland. How did he manage to get a hold of that?” Ryland suddenly came bursting into the door breathing rather hard for having just walked up the drive way. “Sorry I am late guys. It took me a long time to find something big enough for all of us.” Riker ran up and hugged him. We all rolled our eyes as we started collecting the things we had prepared. “Riker, though I am glad to know you are happy to see me, would you let me go. We have a sister to save.” Riker let Ryland go sheepishly smiling. “Sorry, I had been imagining the worse when you did not come back within a few hours.” Ryland patted Riker on the back and started helping us load all of the stuff into the van.

                In about ten minutes, everything and everyone was prepared to go. Ryland had said goodbye to Sabrina, asking that she stay at the house to keep out of danger. Once again my great ability to read people noticed that Ry was a bit too protective of this girl. I am pretty sure these two were developing feelings and though that would be adorable, now was just not the time for a budding relationship. Look what had happened the last time someone had confessed their feelings. Not that it was Ellington’s fault of course. Heck half of the evil plan had actually been set off long before that kiss. Anyway after seeing how heartbroken Ellington was when Rydel disappeared, I am just glad that Ryland was able to convince his Sabrina to stay away from the danger. After they had said goodbye, Ryland got into the driver’s seat of the van and started the engine. Rocky being himself shouted from the back seat “LET’S DO THIS BROTHERS!”

                I had really missed him while he was away. His ability to lighten the mood in any situation would have been a big help during the great depression of the Lynch household just a couple months ago. Once again we all burst out in laughter and Ryland drove away from our safe house. In about 20 minutes we would be facing down the bad guys who had robbed my family of a happy start to the year 2014. Was I ready for this? Rydel can count on it!
