I'm back. Firstly, I would like to say thanks to everyone who followed or faved. Secondly, I am glad to be here. It was hell getting onto this site and even more hell being able to publish. I have an announcement that will come at the end of this story. As for the length of this story, it will be no longer than 20 chapters. 20 or less is my goal. Let's get into this.

One part of the Loud's rebirth is Lynn Sr and Lincoln bonding with each other. Lincoln has always been closer to his mother. But, that changes today. Lynn Sr vowed to teach Lincoln about rock and roll. So far, they gotten farther in two hours than Lincoln has in three years with Luna. Probably because Luna only did Mick Swagger songs. Whereas, Lynn Sr covered Metallica and Nazareth, who was popular in Germany, and the UK, but didn't cut it in the states. Lincoln and Lynn Sr are currently singing a karaoke to a Motorhead song.

Lincoln: I'm a romantic adventure.

Lynn Sr: And I'm a reptile too.

Lincoln: But it don't make no differece.

Lynn Sr: Cause I ain't gonna be

Lincoln and Lynn Sr: Easy. Easy. The only time I'm gonna be easy's when I'm Killed by death. Killed by death.

Rita couldn't help but smile at the two. It was heartwarming for Rita to see her husband and son bond in such a way. Lincoln also appears to be into rock (that new best of AC/DC soundtrack is gonna make a great present for Lincoln. She should probably buy one for Luna too.) At the thought of Luna made Rita realize that she doesn't support Luna or Luan as much as she does Lori and Leni. That made her feel horrible. The thought of any of her kids feeling abandoned made her feel worse. Rita walks into Luna and Luan's room.

Rita: Luan. Luna. I need you to come with me.

Luan and Luna look at each other confused. Nonetheless, they follow Rita downstairs. The three walk outside to Vanzilla. After getting in and strapping their seatbelts, Rita drives off. A few blocks away on Franklin Avenue, Ron, Kenny, and Marvin walk through the door of the safe house with the still unconscious Ronnie Anne and Cristina. Lionel meets up with them.

Lionel: You took two girls?

Ron: Those two couldn't decide which one to take.

Marvin: I wanted to take the ginger. She looks petite.

Kenny: The Mexican one looks like she could take a pounding.

Lionel: Whoa, whoa. No need to argue. I like them both. Tie them up in the basement.

The three goons do as instructed. They find rope and binds the girls' arms and legs. Hannah screams through her tape upon seeing them dropped off. After binding them, Ron pours water onto them to wake them up. Just like clockwork, both girls shoot wide awake. The goons grin evilly at the girls and exit the basement.

Cristina: (groans): Where are we?

Ronnie Anne (groggily): I don't know, but I don't like it.

Ronnie Anne looks around to see that they are in a dark basement. Upon feeling their binds, both girls scream as loud as they can. However, their screams are met with muffled, horrified screaming. The door flies open and the lights switch on. To their horror, they see a bruised and bound little girl tied to a bed. Standing in the stairwell is the face of the man responsible for Abagail Winston's death: Lionel Adams. He is wearing a wide, sinister grin as he approaches the terrified girls.

Lionel: I see you have finally awoken. (Rubs hands together) Now, let's have some fun.

Vanzilla pulls up into the park. Luna and Luan step out, both gleefully excited. Rita first took them to an amazing comedy show. There, Luan met several famous comedians who gave her veteran's advice for comedy and a joke book with autographs from every comedian at the show. She also got an invite to a comedy school in downtown Royal Woods for the summer. After the comedy show, they went to a Rock convention for Luna. Luna got autographed pictures from every band, and a bit of motivational advice from Mick Swagger. Needless to say, happy didn't even come close to the joy they were experiencing. Rita explained during the drive home that she didn't want any of them to feel abandoned. It was an emotional moment.

Rita steps out and the three embrace.

Luna: Thanks for the great day, Mom.

Luan: Yeah. This was the best day ever.

Rita: Don't mention it. I love you girls.

Luna and Luan: We love you too, Mom.

Luna and Luan walk into the house. Once they left, tears of happiness flowed from Rita's eyes. She connected with two of her daughters. By the time Lynn Sr and Rita bond with everyone, the chances of abandonment issues will be very small. Throughout that day, Lynn Sr and Rita hung out with all of their kids. Lynn Sr drove Lana and Lola to the Cartoon Wonderland one week only carnival. They rode the teacups, posed with Blarney, and Lynn Sr watched them eat their first churro. His eyes began to water as theirs' lit up.

Rita took Lisa to a space museum. Lisa was stoic about it first. When she stepped in, her expression changed. She was in awe. Seeing stars and bright planets have that effect on children. She pulled out a pad and pen and took notes about everything the guide explained. The best part was the rocket ship ride. Lisa giggled and played like a normal four year old. Everyone in the museum found it adorable. A commercial crew was there and they just so happened to catch Lisa playing on camera. After getting Rita's consent to use the footage for a commercial and the promise for a hefty check in the near future, the camera crew made the event a commercial. Coincidentally, Lisa's commercial made that museum a huge draw for kids. Their revenue went up 20%.

Lynn Jr was next. Rita took her to watch the latest baseball game. Royal Woods defeated. Hazeltucky by a county mile. During the 9th inning, Lynn Jr caught a ball. Rita's heart was warmed at the sight of Jr jumping up and down in glee. After the game, Lynn Jr got her ball signed by everyone on the Royal Woods team. She got valuable pointers as well. The most valuable was this: Your fans are everything. They are the electricity that keeps you going.

Both parents bonded with Lucy. She didn't want any gifts or special days out. All she wanted was an emotional connection with her parents and that's exactly what she got. She explained that she wanted them to notice her more often. They couldn't help but feel sorry for Lucy. They vowed to start acknowledging her more often.

Later that day, everyone is in Lori and Leni's room, minus Lori, who was getting ready for a date. Each sibling explained their day and flaunted what gift they received. Lori walks into the room, albeit with a distraught look on her face.

Lori: Lincoln, could I talk to you in the hall?

Lori and Lincoln walk into the hallway.

Lincoln: What's wrong? I thought you were going on a date.

Lori: Lincoln, Bobby told me that Ronnie Anne went missing.

Lincoln: WHAT!

The loudness of that got everyone's attention, including their parents.

Here's chapter 8. A good day gone bad. In the next chapter, Lincoln, Lucy, and Leni devise a plan to find Ronnie Anne. Will they succeed? Will Lionel kill any of his victims? What happens next? Find out in the next chapter. Goodbye and goodnight!
