After a quick shower Lincoln was ready to meet his best friend at the park. He left the house still thinking of his sister's words.
"Man, I can't wait to talk with Clyde, and who knows maybe we can play football with some kids at the park." He thought. It didn't take too much time, before he met with his best friend on the way.
"Hi Lincoln, Man what happen to you? It seems like you got run over by a giant size truck!" Clyde exclaimed as he saw his best friend appearance.
Lincoln looked down "It seem like a quick shower isn't enough to hide the effects of training the whole morning with Lynn." Lincoln thought as he realized he was indeed .
"Close enough," he answered with a chuckle "try a Lynn size truck" he joked.
"Lynn did this to you?" Clyde asked.
"Yeah, she asked me to help her practise" Lincoln said as both approach Royalwood park.
Royalwood park was an iconic part of the city, many kids gather there to play all kind of sports, so naturally it was normal for the Loud family to visit the park quite a lot thanks to Lynn.
"So I look down and saw that I actually managed to catch the ball." Lincoln said with a smile as he finish telling his friend the events of the morning. They both had already
"Cool, wait, does that mean you can finally play with her team?" Asked excitedly Clyde who knew how much Lincoln wanted to join her sister misterius team.
Lincoln smile faltered a little. "No" he said, "Lynn said that I was still not good enough for her team"
"Ouch, sorry about that" Clyde said
"No problem, she said that if keep training hard maybe one day I ca-"
"WATCH OUT!"
A fiery howl interrupted Lincoln's words as he looked up and saw a football ball soar through the sky like some kind of canonball. Time seemed to slow down as Lincoln as he saw the ball fly through the air toward a bunch of people in the park. Hours of training with Lynn seems start kicking up inside his body urging him to follow the ball.
And he did.
Almost instinctively Lincoln start running after a his target, with a the same determination a starving wolf chase its prey and with a skill that could only be gain after living all his life with a sport prodigie as his sister, Lincoln managed grab the projectile just before it could hit an old lady riding a red scooter.
"Fewh, that was that was a close one" Thought Lincoln as he catched his breath, he started feeling the adrenaline living his body. He never noticed a pair of deep blue eyes that had watch every move he had just made.
"Clap, clap, clap" The sound of applause broke Lincoln's train of thought, he searched for the source of it before finally find it on an older boy with blonde hair, probably the same age as Lynn, that was accompanied by another boy of roughly the same age.
"They are probably the owners of the ball" Lincoln thought as both boys approached him.
"Wow, kid what a great catch" The blond kid said
"Oh it wasn't that good" said Lincoln as he rubbed the back of his head, his sister could have easily catched that throw.
"Dont sell yourself short kiddo, that was a really an incredible catch, tell me: Have you play football before?" The blonde kid asked with a smile in his face
"Not really" Lincoln responded "I just help my older sister practise, she is the real sport player of the family."
"Bullshit" The blonde kid said while his partner quietly listened to the conversation, he looked at his friend, his eyes saying "What the hell are you doing."
"No one gets that good only helping his sister" The blond kid continues "You know what? Me and my friends are putting this little team together and with that little show you just put, I want you to be part of it."
"Wow I don't know what to say ehhh" Lincoln said as he realized he didn't knew the boy's name
"Alpha" the boy answered just as if he had just read his mind "You can call me Alpha" the boy proudly said as his partner groaned while hitting his face with his palm.
"Alpha?" Lincoln asked "Is that your name or a nickname?"
"Yes" was all the answers he got.
"Well, I need to go back home" the now named Alpha said "You don't need to give me a response right now. But if you do say yes" He gave Lincoln a small silver card. "Go to this direction at 4:00 pm next Friday"
With that said Alpha and his buddy started leaving, but not before Lincoln heard Alpha saying "And remember kid, you have a great talent for this, don't waste it"
With both kids gone Lincoln said his goodbyes to Clyde and went home. He had a lot of things he needed to think about.
