New Hero in Town
Three years have passed since last time you saw Lincoln. He was now in 8th Grade, 14 years old, and was still basically a doormat when it comes to social standards. He didn't mind though, as he had his group of friends to be with. Also, thanks to a special power source found a couple years ago, society and technology have both evolved.
He was on his way home, passing by some buildings. All of a sudden he heard some noise, and it seemed like some kind of black blur flew above him. Lincoln turned around only to see nothing. 'The heck was that?' He thought to himself before continuing his walk.
He noticed that some other people looked the same direction too, so he decided to go a little faster to get out of whatever mess could potentially happen. He ducked into an alleyway, hoping that whatever that thing was wouldn't find him. But he ended up in trouble, as two dudes were sitting there with weapons.
The two got up. The guy one the right then spoke. "What do you think you're doing."
Lincoln then looked back. "Just taking a quick breath, later."
The second guy ran to the other side of him. "No you're not. Hey boss, what's the plan?"
The first guy then spoke. "We flip a coin. Heads, we beat him up, Tails, we beat him up."
"Was that the best you could come up with?" Lincoln asked. He was confused, half of it was from the comment just made by the thug, but he also saw some dusty footprints heading up to the supposed boss. Then out of nowhere, the first dude was picked up, thrown at the second dude. And then they both were knocked unconscious.
The invisible force then showed itself to be a girl, probably around 14 like he is right now, in some kind of black mechanical superhero costume that featured several yellow colored neon highlights, such as the eyes on the mask. "Looks like your coin landed on its side."
Lincoln then pointed at her. "See, that's how you make jokes right there. Thanks by the way, who are you?"
The costumed girl then turned. "You may call me, Harvestwoman."
Lincoln just stood there with an eyebrow raised.
Harvestwoman took notice of his silence. "What? You don't get it? Superhero, awesome powers, costumed up." She said.
Lincoln then shook his head. "No no no, I got that part, but what's with the name?"
Harvestwoman blinked. "Oh. Well, you know, typical superhero stuff. Lab accident, blah blah, I got powers that made me like a harvestman, or as you would know it, the daddy long legs."
Lincoln now understood. "Oh, well, what powers are those?" Lincoln asked.
Harvestwoman then scratched her chin. "Well, let's see. Sort of like a pun based on the 'long legs' nickname, my limbs can stretch pretty far. My suit also has built in camouflage mode and four extra mechanical limbs, which can also stretch." She said, as the four mechanical limbs emerged from her back.
Time stopped for a second, and Lincoln then turned to the readers. "If you haven't caught on yet, she's a parody of Spider-Man."
Time then resumed and Lincoln spoke up. "Well, that was pretty cool what you did. I can already tell your suit is covered head to toe in gadgets."
Harvestwoman then looked over her suit. "You must be pretty smart then, cause it is." She said.
Lincoln scratched the back of his head. "If I had to guess, second smartest in the family."
Harvestwoman then scratched her chin. "You like your family?"
Lincoln just sighed. "I guess, but my dad passed away due to an accident nearly 3 years ago, and earlier this year my mom went somewhere, only to never return. That left my oldest sister in charge."
Harvestwoman just stood there. "That's real tough, well, I'll be sure to check on you, you know, in case I ever have to save your butt again." Her arms then stretched to the top of the building. Then she flung herself far into the air, due to her arms retracting so fast.
Lincoln just looked up at the sky, where she flew off. "Note to self, check my sanity." He said as he walked off.
Lincoln finally got home, but looked over at the TV and saw something he already new.
"The masked vigilante who claims herself as Harvestwoman has struck again. Two common street criminals were found unconscious in an alleyway with her card."
A picture of her in her typical costume with her four extra arms out was put on screen.
"For about a week now, this supposedly young girl has used the newest in Neon Corporation's advanced technology to fight off criminals, even though not too many support her actions. Guess we'll just wait and see what's going on with our, quote, 'local crime-fighting Harvestwoman.'"
Lynn was fed up and changed the channel. "I want to watch something decent, not some stupid made up story." She said.
Lincoln walked up to the couch and sat down. "She's not made up, I actually met her earlier."
Lynn just chuckled. "You're just pulling my leg."
Lincoln shook his head. "No, those two guys on the news were going to attack me, and she stopped them, and then we talked for a bit."
Lynn then sat up. "Well, then those guys are lucky, cause if she didn't stop them, I probably would've beaten them up 20 times worse than she did for attacking you."
Lincoln just sighed. "Encouraging as always." He said. The two then heard sirens and horns outside. The looked out the window to see Harvestwoman standing in the road with her four mechanical arms stretched out in front of her. Suddenly a speeding getaway car came flying through, only to be stopped completely by Harvestwoman. Her real arms then stretched through the windows and pulled the robbers out.
After putting both of them on the ground, she left her card and used her stretching arms to swing away.
Lynn then looked at Lincoln. "...so you two dating or something?"
Lincoln just glared at her.
Lynn shrugged. "Sorry. Couldn't resist."
Lincoln just walked away. "As if. We only talked a little."
Lynn's eyebrow rose. "About what exactly?"
"Well, she told me a little about her." Lincoln said.
Lynn nodded. "Typical thing to do."
Lincoln then turned. "Then she told me her powers."
Lynn then chuckled. "Sounds like she trusts you."
Lincoln got slightly annoyed at that comment. "And then she started commenting on my intelligence and family."
Lynn smirked. "Ah, I see, you are dating!"
"Stop that. And no we're not. I don't even know her real name." Lincoln said before yawning. "I need some sleep man."
Lincoln then walked up to his room and went to sleep.
It was late at night, and the camera was looking at the outside of the Loud House. Suddenly, Harvestwoman lands on the roof, and then one of her arms grabs something else as she swings herself at the camera.
A/N: I made this as another little thing for possible continuing. See you next time. Loud House owned by Nickelodeon.
