All the girls piled into Vanzilla, excited for today's events as a family for Lincoln's birthday. The head to the park and once they got there, Lincoln and most of the girls besides Leni, who planned on going with Rita and Lynn Sr., The parents, to go get Lincoln's cake over at the bakery. After they drove off, Bobby pulled up and got out only to be greeted by a cheerful Lori. They all headed to a pavilion and started setting out the food and gifts for his birthday. After a few minutes Lincoln felt a wash of sadness and frowned.
He noticed that everyone he had invited wasn't here. But he did, however, notice that his sister's friends were coming over. It felt weird that his sisters friends have came but not his own. But not unexpected, as of recently they have been visiting more often and even hanging out with Lincoln himself.
When Rita, Lynn Sr., and Leni returned with the cake they all gathered under the pavilion and did the traditional ceremony of singing happy birthday and blowing out candles. After receiving a slice of cake, He sat alone and ate in silence. When he waa done he looked st the Ring. with hus other hand he attempted to pull it off but to no avail. Sighing he laid back on a tree. The event of this morning, caused by the Ring of course
But he heard footsteps and looked up to see Carol, Lori's social rival, and Sam, Luna's old crush and roadie. They sat by him as Carol spoke up "What's wrong Linc? it's your birthday..." Then Sam continued on "Yeah, c'mon we should be celebrating." Lincoln smiled softly, his eyes sparkling in the rays of sunlight. The sight made both girls blush red as he got up without a word and walked back to his family. Lucy appeared from nowhere next to tye girls, scaring them. She sighed and spoke in her usual monotone.
"He's been like that since the incident with Ronnie Anne..." The giris looked confused at Lucy as Sam muttered quizzically "Incident?" Lucy nodded "If you want to hear it, it'll best if you hear it from the very guy involved." She said with a nudge of her towards the direction of Lincoln who waa mingling with his family. Both girls frowned and looked at each other in concern.
after a couple hours, friends said their farewells and departed to their homes. The Loud family cleaned up and headed home during the ever darkening dusk sky. After they got home each one said their "goodnights" and "happy birthdays" to young Lincoln who went to his room. He shut and locked the door before sitting on the bed, letting out a stressed sigh, the Ring was still on his mind. "This can't be normal" he muttered to himself. "It's not." Lincoln shot straight up and twisted around to see someone else sitting on his bed.
The mysterious young man looked around the age of Lincoln, his hair a dark messy brown. He had bright blue eyes that looked at Lincoln tiredly as if he hasn't slept much recently. He was just as pale as Lincoln if not more so, but looked like a sickly skeleton. He was just dressed in a grey t-shirt and camo pajama bottoms. He was also sipping from a mug of coffee
"Who are-?!" The Teen cut him off "Listen, Snow White, I Know you have questions but I don't have time to answer them." Lincoln was perplexed by him and the nickname and The Teen altogether. "But-" Once again Lincoln was cut off "Shut up, you have the Ring right?" He said point to the crimson gemmed Ring "That means you are now apart of the games. Snow White, you are now a participant of the Grand Elementalist Tournament!" He announced with pride as Lincoln was utterly shocked by it
"I understand your Extremely confused so lets start with the Ring. That is the Crimson Ruby Ring, you now hold the power to manipulate your blood and manifest it into weapons, armour, and more! Your objective as a Elementalist, is to kill least one fellow Elementalist's!" Lincoln's eyes widened at the word "Kill" The Teen was smiling wickedly at it though "Don't worry, after the first then it'll be a breeze to deal with. So, every night you Will receive a target and their location. You must kill them before they kill your target, or before your own hunter gets to you. You don't have to kill every night but at least by the end of the week."
"But... If you don't complete that, you and your family will be the targets of the new week. So I hope you understand the gravity of the situation. This tournament will end when one Elementalist remsins. The winner receive a wish, but tye more kills means the more wishes, that's what'll motivate those killers out there. This'll all begin in 3 days time. And to make sure your identity is safe we'll be sending a mask and cloak here on the night of the games, otherwise others might try and kill you in broad daylight. The only rules are keep the fighting within the county (NOT COUNTRY, it's COUNTY). Good luck, Snow white." Without another word The Teen opened the window and leaped away into the darkness.
Lincoln, currently bewildered, just stood there still shocked by the oncoming information that was just given. After properly processing it all Lincoln groaned before falling onto his bed. "Of all nicknames, why did it have to be fucking Snow White?"
