Wow, it always impresses me how much everyone likes this thing. Again, I apologize that my updates are always so inconsistent. Also, for the sake of this story, I am going to make Lincoln a little bit vindictive. Anyways, I hope you enjoy the chapter. Also, I did edit the last two chapters to add the parents back in, and fix some grammar mistakes.
"Kids, family meeting downstairs!" Lynn Sr and Rita called. "Everyone got out of their rooms, and dragged themselves downstairs. "I know your tired, but I feel this needs to be discussed. I know we agreed that Lincoln was bad luck, but since he left, I think it's clear that this wasn't the situation." Lynn Sr said, prompting agreement among the family, except for Lynn Jr. "No, he is bad luck, and he cursed us with it after we kicked him outside." As Lynn Jr said this, she was met with a tired icy glare from everyone in the room. "If that's the case, maybe Lincoln wasn't bad luck, and it was instead you." Lori scowled, along with everyone else.
"W-what are you talking about, it's clear that Lincoln was the cause for all the bad luck before we kicked him out!" Lynn tried to defend herself. "But after he was banned from the house, that's when everything really started to go to hell" Luna countered. "What if Linky was actually good luck to cancel out Lynn's bad luck" asked Leni, which everyone else had the idea of using. "Ok, so maybe we should give Lynn the boot, until Lincoln comes back, and then see how well we do after that" said Luan, pulling a massive clown shoe from her bag of pranks. "W-wait, hold on guys, let's talk this throu-" Lynn tried to say, before she was forcefully ejected from the homestead.
Inside, the family continued to debate about what they did. "Maybe that was a bit har-" said Lana, only to be interrupted by Lucy. "And it wasn't harsh to kick Lincoln out of the house? This is only till she gets Lincoln to come back and fix things." Lucy said, to which everyone agreed. "As much as I hate to admit it, our esteemed brother was the foundational pillar of this family, and I am unsure as to how we have not yet fallen apart further than this" said Lisa before seeing confused looks and clarifying. "Lincoln if the only thing keeping this family from turning to complete chaos, and I'm surprised we lasted this long without him." After this explanation, the family realized that were relying on Lynn to fix everything, and immediately started to panic. "Lynn, you better fix this"everyone said, before trying to get some extra shuteye.
Meanwhile, Lynn was outside, contemplating what to do. Should she go apologize to Lincoln, tell him to fix the bad luck, avoid him and just wait for things to go back to normal? She had no idea what to do now. After taking a few minutes to think, she realized how stupid she sounded. "That's right, if Lincoln was bad luck, than she would have lost every game where the entire family was present." After realizing this, she had made up her mind, Lincoln wasn't bad luck and she was going to bring him back. As she went to Clyde's house to get Lincoln, she encountered some of the neighbors. "Hey Jr" one said with clear tired irritation.
"I heard about what happened, and you better apologize to your brother." Lynn flared up with that line, as apologizing wasn't an easy thing to do. "I can't do that, apologizing isn't how I do things." Lynn yelled in anger. "We're suggesting you suck it up, because this situation isn't just affecting you. We were able to tolerate your family, because Lincoln kept you all at a bearable level. Because he's gone, everyone has been losing sleep." At this, everyone on the street nodded, as they felt strongly about this. "Just get Lincoln to fix things, and we won't bother you again about this." And as the line was said, everyone dispersed, and tried to get some sleep. As the croud disappeared, Lynn continued on to get Lincoln back, and was thinking on a good way to do it.
