- Greetings everyone, today i bring you a special story about how 10 sisters all try their very best to give their only brother in the family a best birthday ever. In this adventure filled with hijinks, love and family morals we will discover how important Lincoln's 12th birthday is to the Loud sisters. Through my speculations in the multi-verse i have ran across this event in a world very similar to the Louds we know and love. Nothing too different but nothing exactly the same but what difference does it make? Enjoy this lovable and heart warming story because i know for a fact that i did. -

Hello everyone. This story is a request. They shared their idea for a story that they has asked me to write. While i am still currently working on Grand Theft Loud as well as the rewrite of Brotherhood, this will mainly be a side project that i intend to finish as soon as i can. This won't be a long story so i'll make each chapter worth it. I hope you folks enjoy this story.

The morning opens up with a beautiful sunny sky that is enough for everyone to enjoy the day. With the long five day week now over the residents of the three story suburban home can now enjoy the weekend that is just ahead of them. But this won't be just any ordinary weekend for everyone. For the only male offspring of Lynn Loud Sr. and Rita Loud, it was his 12th birthday this Sunday.

Lincoln Loud couldn't wait. For him, he felt like he was 11 for ages to come. But now he can celebrate by finally turning 12. The white haired boy awoke in his linen closet bedroom marking off one day off before he gets to draw a huge circle in his calendar the he wrote '12th Birthday!' with a red marker. It was only one day away. Just one day away before he can be greeted with his loving sisters and parents, offering him special gifts and an amazing cake. He just hoped that it wasn't chocolate otherwise his sisters would consume the whole thing before he would even have a piece.

Usually Saturdays in the loud house was chaotic, what with 11 kids running amok in one house celebrating the end of the week by doing what they love best. This time it was quiet...too quiet. He noticed that there wasn't even a peep outside. It seemed almost as if he were the only kid in the house. He headed outside into the hall with his daily outfit in hand heading towards the bathroom.

What surprised him the most was the fact that there wasn't even a line for the bathroom. Not every Saturday started with a long line to the lavatory but it was still strange for Lincoln. He headed straight inside and begun to get ready for 'Birthday Eve'.

Unbeknownst to Lincoln, all of his sisters were all in the eldest bedroom; Lori and Leni's. The night before they had set up a sister meeting to talk about Lincoln's upcoming birthday. The girls loved setting up a surprise for their dear brother, it was one thing none of them had ever forgotten in their entire lives. He was an important part of their lives and this was one of the many ways their thanking him for being the best brother a sister could ever have.

Every year they meet up in the eldest bedroom to discuss about what they were going to do to surprise him. Every year they had succeeded and they don't plan on failing him. Lori had everyone wake up a few hours earlier so that they would all meet in her shared bedroom to discuss business. Mom and Dad were both called in for work so as usual they left Lori in charge.

Once everyone had arrived she had Lisa temporarily soundproof her bedroom so that they don't accidentally shout out the wrong choice of words. Everyone made themselves comfortable and awaited for Lori to begin the sister meeting.

She tapped the heel of her shoe on her dresser, having it act as a courtroom gavel "Good Morning girls, before we begin does anyone have to use the bathroom?" No one had raised their hands. "Good, now Lisa if you please?"

Lisa stepped up in front of the room holding a notepad in her hands. The toddler began to read what was written. "Ahem, during our last meeting we've discussed matters about what we will plan for our brother's 144 month old celebration, in other words 12th birthday. As of now all open ideas are up for discussion."

The athletic sister raised her hand in anticipation "Oh Oh i know! We can plan a sports themed party! I mean everyone who goes will make enough to form a 9 player team for baseball-"

The family rock star interrupted "Dude forget that! We can have a whole musical concert dedicated for him!"

"That would be too much treble for one birthday! Hahaha! Get it?" said the family comedian.

Lori pinched her brow "Girls! Enough please! Look let's all decide on something that doesn't involve using our personal interests for the party. Lincoln isn't all interested in the same things that we like so let's think outside the box here."

The sisters all pondered and wondered about one way to make their brother's 12th birthday amazing. They wanted to make him feel like the best brother they could ever have, and that's something they don't want to fail at.

Lynn knows one thing Lincoln likes a lot, and that would be comic books. "Well he likes those dorky comic books that he reads in his underwear, what about that?" She asked.

"Comic books? What's there t do with comic books? We can't turn an entire party into one big comic panel." said Lori. She then had another idea. "Unless..."

"Unless what?" the girls said in unison?

"Unless...we use Lincoln's favorite character in his comics, Ace Savvy! Of course! Superheroes!" She said in excitement.

"Superheroes? We don't even know much about them except that they wear long underwear and beat up criminals." said Lynn.

Lisa on the other hand decided to stay quiet and watch her sister units talk it all out before she says anything else. Lori understood what Lynn was going at but she had other intentions.

"No guys just hear me out. We all know Lincoln literally loves Ace Savvy as a hero and character. I mean he made his own costume with his underwear on the outside. But what if we improved on it? And not just his costume, but with everything else? What if we throw a superhero themed party for Lincoln? Clearly we don't have many suggestions."

They all thought about it and realized that Lori was right. Most of their ideas consisted of things they like to do. Lincoln always put his interests aside for the sake of his sisters. He's done everything they like so that they could be happy, so why not return the favor and do this for him? While they may not be interested in comic books or superheroes, they're doing this for Lincoln. Besides they'll find a way to make this suitable for them all.

"While i do find all that nerdy and geeky stuff boring, Linc's our bro. Why not take one for the team?"

"Yeah dudes. Doing something he likes may not be our best interest, but he always puts our happiness before his own. Let's rock guys"

"I totes love Linky just like he loves us. This is for Linky."

"We're in" the twins said in unison.

"Count me in, let's Ace this party! Hahaha get it?"

Everyone groaned at Luan's pun to which she had expected. Lisa decided now it was time to speak.

"While i do agree with our choice of theme, may i remind you all that we have 24 hours to get everything prepared and ready for our male sibling's birthday. I've been doing research about everything we need. For starters we need our party guests. We need to notify them of our updated event. We should expect last minute changes if anything."

"Well we literally got that covered a few days ago. Everyone is still on board with the party." said Lori

Lisa checked the box next to the 'party guests' list. "Very well, that is one of the requirements that is done so far, but onto my next listed requirement. We also need decorations and proper party food. Cake included."

"Okay then, guess we should literally start with that today when we go to the mall."

"Next, since this is a superhero themed party we should at least try to get suitable attire for the party. In other words costumes."

" I am totes on that! I already have designs for all of you!"

"Very well" Lisa checked the box "Next would be proper entertainment for tomorrow's celebration."

Luna and Luan immediately jumped on the wagon as soon as they heard entertainment. Luan spoke first "I'll definitely have a comedy routine that'll be super! Hahaha get it?" The rest of the sisters groaned at her attempt to make a pun. Luna shook her head and spoke afterwards. "I can get a gig together brah, I'll just get the band together."

Lisa checked the box next to entertainment "I believe that is all that we would have to require for the entire party to come together."

"Okay then, so those who have to get things ready here at home will stay and get started as soon as possible. The faster we get things done, the better. Everyone else will come with me to the mall and get everything else that's left." said Lori. As soon as she finished speaking she grabbed her shoe and slammed the heel on the dresser, indicating that the sister meeting was now over.

Leni started to work on everyone's costumes immediately after everyone went about. She had a list of everyone's sizes, including the party guests. Luna and Luan went into their rooms to begin working on their entertainment, the two parties locked their doors and made sure to avoid having Lincoln come in and spoil the surprise. Everyone else made their way to Vanzilla and headed their way to the mall.

Lincoln had hopped off a shower and got dressed for the day. He walked out of the bathroom and the first thing he noticed was a sign that read 'Do not disturb!' pasted on the door of Lori and Leni's room. He noticed the same sign on Luna and Luan's door. He knew better than to let curiosity get in the way, the last thing he needed were angry sisters whom have been disturbed. He went straight downstairs and awaited the breakfast that he solely craved.

He arrived into the kitchen only to find it empty, without a sister in sight. He figured maybe everyone had things to do, but at least he'd have some alone time. He made himself Bacon and pancakes for the morning. He felt bad about making bacon for himself. He knew that both Lynn and Lana both loved bacon for breakfast, he knows how crazy they'd get at the slightest scent of bacon.

After eating his breakfast he washed his plate and went upstairs into his small converted bedroom. Having nothing planned to do for the day he took out his radio and decided to contact his best friend, Clyde McBride.

"Clyde! Clyde come in!"

"Hey Lincoln! Clyde here! What's up?"

"You doing anything for today? Maybe we can do something since i got nothing planned for today."

"Got nothing so far, yeah we can hang out. I'll just ask my dads and see where we'll go. Maybe you can meet by my house."

"Sounds like a plan bud, I'll see you soon." With that Lincoln turned off his radio and prepared to meet Clyde by his place.

Lincoln left the house leaving a note behind explaining that he went to hang out with Clyde for the day. Little did he know that today was going to be a day full of misadventures.

A/N: Hello guys and welcome to the first 'Candle' of Twelve Candles. While this is a side project i will do my best to juggle around GTL, this and the Brotherhood rewrite. This will be a small addition to the "LoudVerse" collection as it has been given an introduction above. So a little things I'll mention about this AU. For starters i decided to make a few sisters' age gap smaller, in this case Lucy is only 10 years old, Lynn recently just turned 13, the twins are 8 and Lisa is 5. Secondly Leni won't spoil Lincoln's birthday surprise here. I made her smart enough not to do that. Not too many AU differences but just enough to make this universe different. Anyways i hope you guys will enjoy this addition as i will try to get this done ASAP. Stay tuned folks, FrostbiteFear out.
