Chapter 2

Without knowing what really happened, Lincoln died at the hands of a stranger. The thought that his killer could do the same with his parents and his sisters terrified him, rather than knowing if he would go to heaven or hell...

He had committed several antics in his short life, so he thought it would be the latter.

However, he did not feel the heat of the flames, he did not hear the cry of other souls, there was only darkness... Or was it because his eyes were closed? He also felt a pleasant warmth, his body felt comfortable and more than the smell of sulfur, what his nose perceived was the smell of freshly made waffles.

Were there waffles in hell? No, it was heaven then?... Lincoln wanted to eat them but he did not know where they were.

He focused. Maybe he would find them that way, but instead, he felt the warm sensation becoming more comfortable and pleasant... He felt as if he could move his body, as if he could return to life...

And then he woke up.

"Waffles!"

"Wah! Lincoln! Do not surprise me like that!"

His sudden awakening took someone else by surprise... It was his older sister Lynn, who was placing a plate of waffles on the desk in the room, careful as not to throw any of the action figures that were right there.

"Lynn?" What are you doing in my room? In my room? My room!"

Calling 'surprise' to what Lincoln was feeling to see that everything was in place would be minimizing the word ...

He was astonished!

The room was emptied completely, he was sure of it, but the reality in front of his eyes made him doubt that memory... He pricked his cheek to make sure he was not dreaming.

"Ouch ... No, it's not a dream…"

His eyes met Lynn's, after having been startled by Lincoln's awakening, she had been silent.

"Lincoln…"

If the surprise to see his room back was big, it was bigger to see his sister's eyes get wet ... But they were not accusatory, Lynn did not look like she was about to shout frightened or angry, she did not seem to be upset to lose the game…

She looked relieved, happier than Lincoln remembered ever seeing her in his life...

"Girls! Lincoln is awake!"

Lynn looked away from Lincoln and called the rest of her sisters with a cheerful cry. Immediately, the roar of a crowd made itself heard, approaching the room at full speed.

"Me first ... I want to see Linky right now!" roared Lola.

"Forget it! I'm going to see it first!" roared Lana.

"I'm the oldest, literally I'll be the first to see it."

"Do not push, dudes... It's not a competition."

"Poop!"

Lincoln was familiar with what was happening: the scandal was something that occured everyday in the Loud house, but by the claims of his sisters, he realized that they were competing to see him...

Why?

"Lincoln!"

Lynn did well to move away from the entrance, had been crushed by the others if not.

"Lincoln, what a joy!" Leni pronounced, being first of the sisters to rush over Lincoln.

"Waaaaahhh ... Lincoln! Lincoln!"

"You're crying, Lola!" You are…! ¡Waaaaaahhhh!"

Lincoln's surprise turned into fear, he fought to get rid of the hug in multitude that his sisters were giving him.

"...I want to hug him, too." said a small voice.

"Ahhhh!"

It was the shock that Lucy gave to everyone that allowed Lincoln to get rid of the hug. Confused and frightened, he cornered himself in his bed.

"You're all acting so weird? Aren't you afraid of my bad luck?"

Seeing the state of her brother, the Loud girls understood that they had to give him some space.

"Allow me to explain, big brother ... The emotional state of our sisters is due to the concern about the accident you suffered in my bunker. You were unconscious inside it two days ago and did not leave your lethargy regardless of the stimulus you received... Having said that, being affected by your bad luck is insignificant, and that only in the case that it is true…"

The little genius of the family took the liberty of telling Lincoln about the reason they were all so happy to see him, which made him calm down a little.

"Lisa ... Bad luck is real, and I attract it. No, forget that for now, there is something more important! There was another person with me in the bunker! They are armed!"

The girls looked at each other in surprise. Lisa just adjusted her glasses with ease.

"Lynn was the one who found you and you were alone down there, there was no sign of anyone besides you. Most likely, your subconscious created the image of an assailant while you were sleeping.

Was it really so? That memory was too real to be a dream.

"We'll discuss another time about why you were inside the bunker. For now you have to continue resting."

"I made you waffles in case you woke up and were hungry. I'll leave them at your desk... Although I can stay and feed you if you feel very tired."

"It's not fair, Lynn... I also want to stay with Linky." exclaimed Lola with both hands on her hips.

"Me and Mr. Coconuts can stay too, we did a routine for when Lincoln ceased to be Lincolncious... Get it?"

"I think it's not the best time, Luan. Lisa is right that we should let Lincoln rest, I know we're all glad we have him back but we need to be able to control ourselves. Everyone out."

The oldest of the siblings gave the order to leave the room, not without each one giving a hug to the only boy of the family... Lori had to literally separate them from Lincoln by force because they refused to release him, and she also had to be forced when her turn came.

The only ones to stay in the room were Lynn and Lisa, the first one because she really expected to feed Lincoln, and the genius because she was doing test on him.

"Lynn... You can go, too." said Lisa.

"Okay, call if you need anything, Lincoln." answered Lynn while smiling.
