Rorschach and Lincoln had arrived to the city and they found a building that had sign saying Casagrande Market-.
Lincoln had stepped towards the stairs to knock on the door but was having second thoughts.
Lincoln: "I don't know if I should knock. What if they try to call my family or Lori told Bobby that I'm bad luck?"
Rorschach had started collecting his thoughts and found a one answer.
Rorschach:"I'll leave if it helps. Talk with her. Have to visit my friends."
Lincoln nodded and knocked on the door. A man same age as Lori had answered the door and got down to Lincoln's level.
Bobby: "Hey, Bro. What are you doing all the way out here?"
Lincoln placed his hand on Bobby's shoulder.
Lincoln: "Bobby, we need to talk. It's about what Lori has done."
The two go inside and close the front door.
-Back with the Louds-
Rita came in to check on Luna who hadn't woke up yet. Rita could also tell that Luna had been crying in her sleep and she knew why. Rita had felt angry with not only Lynn and Lynn Jr. but with herself too. She felt extremely bad for kicking out Lincoln and believing Lynn Jr.'s superstitions and having to see Lincoln suffer the torture Lynn Jr. and his other sisters gave him. Rita: "I'll make it up to you, Lincoln. I promise." Rita started rubbing Luna's back in comfort. As for Lori, she had trouble talking to friends or Bobby because of the reception of the rest stop they are at, so she just reads a magazine and she sees an entry from the 40's. Lori was reading it and she came across a interesting entry, It said Minutemen. Lori(reading): "Silk Spectre, the pioneer of the costumed adventurers. Assaulted a Nazi spy on September 12th, 1942. Spy arrested two days after." Lynn was bouncing her ball much to other's annoyment. Meanwhile outside the rest stop, Lola had been looking at the bulletin board to see if there are any pageants available in their location and saw a book signing by a Hollis Mason at a library not too far from them. Lola had remembered that her father read Under The Hood, one of Hollis Mason's books and then she grabs the pamphlet to give to her father but she quickly remembers that Lincoln hadn't come with them to be in the suit for good luck, so she throws the pamphlet in the garbage can to which unbeknownst to Lola, her twin sister Lana was finding all sorts of garbage but the pamphlet was the only thing worth keeping.
-With Rorschach-
Dr. Manhattan: "Good evening, Rorschach."
Rorschach: "Dr. Manhattan, you know why I'm here."
Dr. Manhattan: "Yes. but it's going to disappoint the others."
Laurie Jupiter (Juspeczyk) walks into the room wearing a dark yellow leather jacket.
Laurie: "Rorschach. You shouldn't be here. This is a restricted area."
Rorschach: "Nice to see you too, Laurie."
Laurie: "So you finally remember my name."
Rorschach: "Just come back from taking a child from an empty house, His family broke him."
Laurie: "Wait. Who is the child, Rorschach?"
Dr. Manhattan: "Lincoln Loud, a child who had been kicked out of his home. Lied to his family about being bad luck but when he tried to make amends they shunned him, So he disowned them. And he was their only 11 year old boy in that family. He had lived with his sisters torture for a long time, It was a wonder he hadn't snapped in the beginning."
Rorschach starts speaking after he finished
Rorschach: "Found him setting up a tent. Had come with me by own choice."
Laurie had gotten angry from what Dr. Manhattan said about Lincoln's Family
Laurie(angry): "Why the hell would they kick him out?! Do they know that's illegal?! So what if he lied?! That's no way to treat a child!"
Rorschach gave Laurie a chew-able sugar cube to calm her down and calm down, she had.
Laurie(calmed): "Thank you, Rorschach. Even though I didn't need a sugar cube. I'm just angry that they would do something so stupid and illegal like that."
Rorschach's face had changed and he needed to gather more Watchmen.
Rorschach: "Have to get Dreiberg. Needs to meet the child. As for you, Miss Jupiter, Save your anger for them."
Dr. Manhattan had started think of where Dreiberg was located and sent Rorschach close to the location.
-With Lincoln and Bobby-
Lincoln and Bobby were in the house drinking a few Cherry Lemonades not long after Bobby's little sister and Lincoln's Girl-best friend had come back from her skateboarding run.
Ronnie Anne: "Lincoln, What are you doing here?" Bobby motioned her to sit down, so Ronnie Anne had sat down next to Lincoln and Bobby. Lincoln: "Deep breath, you two. This will be shocking." Lincoln explained what had happened in the past two days and the accusation of Bad Luck along with the family starting to treat him like a talisman despite him trying to tell the truth prior to going to the beach and saying that he met someone who took him to the city. If that didn't shock the two Santiago kids he didn't know what did. Ronnie Anne(angry): Way to be cruel towards you! I can't believe they had the nerve! I hate them, Lincoln! I hate what they did to you! Ronnie Anne had started crying on Bobby after that outburst to which Bobby had gotten angry. Bobby(angry): I'm breaking up with Lori, I could never date someone who hurt someone who would hurt their own sibling. Ronnie Anne had started giving Lincoln a hug. Ronnie Anne: Can I still hang out with Lincoln, though? Bobby: Just because I'm breaking up with Lori doesn't mean you two can't be together anymore. But I do have to ask, Lincoln. Do you know who the guy is that brought you here? Lincoln had tried to figure out his name but tried the first name he could think of and he actually guessed right.
Lincoln:"I think his name is Rorschach or something." Ronnie Anne wide eyed at the word "Rorschach". Ronnie Anne:"Isn't he a vigilante, Lincoln?" Lincoln:"He is?" Ronnie Anne showed him a picture of the Watchmen, to which the picture had Rorschach, Nite Owl II, Silk Spectre II, Dr. Manhattan, The Comedian, Silhouette and Ozymandias.
=Time Freeze=
Lincoln(to the readers): Whoa, I've met one of the Watchmen. Which means superheroes are real, which also means I just got my Family in trouble with them...
-Outside The Casagrande Bodega-
Comedian managed to rescue Silhouette and the two had started walking to Great Lakes and saw the Casagrande Bodega.
The Comedian: "We can rest in there, Ursula." Silhouette looked around but she agreed with Comedian. Silhouette:"Let's hurry inside, Blake."
They both rushed in and unintentionally scared Lincoln, Ronnie Anne and Bobby. The two of them looked at one another.
The Comedian and Silhouette: Looks like we have explaining to do.
TO BE CONTINUED...
(Author's Note: The next chapters will have a few flashback episodes of Watchmen and The Louds. Silhouette and The Comedian are dead in the novel and movie but I decided to keep them alive. I'll also have Lincoln explain to Silhouette, Nite Owl and The Comedian about what happened. I'll also have Lynn Sr. meet Hollis Mason and have him give a few pieces of advice about family. I'll also have Lori and Lynn fight about her superstitions and about causing Bobby to break up with her.)
