Summer 2020
We are on an extremely hot day in a city in the state of Michigan ... the typical city of Royal Woods, where we see the picturesque and noisy Loud Family, on a typical normal day ... if that is what we would call it normal ... to tell the truth if that house was a sea of chaos, now 3 years later it was a tidal wave of disaster ... after the absence of the eldest of the 11 brothers, there was no longer enough order to control everyone .. .and worst of all sometimes the fights were more violent ...
Lori, had already gone to college with Bobby in Chicago, it seemed to be very far, but at least the contact was not lost ... although the 1st months was a great disaster for the Srs Loud to control most of the girls , with the passage of time everything was calming down ...
Luna must have taken over the reins after Lori's absence ... not that she wanted to let Leni know that she was not qualified to take command, but she knew that she would not be able to be as bossy as her older sister ... And Luan, he still had that indication of making jokes ... but he could not alone, he needed the help of the only family member who was always there to help everyone, the one who was always willing to help his sisters ... except that he believed ... because maybe Lincoln had matured too much, after ... the fight, but now there was no time for grudges, although he did not like to talk about the matter, he needed the help of his brother, although it would be to return to piss him off.
LUNA: hey bro ... are you there? (Knocking on the Attic door, but without receiving any response)
?: Are you looking for Lincoln ...?
MOON: Ahhhhh! (giving a huge scare) ... WITH A DEMON LUCY ..! - Stop appearing always like this, you want to kill me from a heart attack ...!
LUCY: Sigh ... well he went out in the morning with Lynn to the Karate club ...
LUNA: haha good that Sis ... hahahaha and I thought that Luan was the one of the Jokes XD
LUCY: I'm not kidding ... and I'm never going to joke ... you know very well that after ... the fight ... Lincoln said he needed to learn to defend himself ... when Dad mentioned it ... I hadn't believed it either ... Sigh ..
LUNA: So Lynn really convinced Lincoln ... to fight (with a worried tone)
LUCY: the truth is that it was Lincoln who asked Lynn and since then they go every Saturday for 4 hours to the Karate club ... have you not noticed ...?
LUNA: the truth is that no ... I have been very busy with the rehearsals and the worst thing is that now I cannot stay away from home later ... because of taking care of you ¬ ¬
LUCY: Well, no one asked you ... you accepted it just because neither Leni nor Luan could be as serious as you ... and fence that you have changed ... (he retires to his room with an expression of annoyance)
- Those words had reached Luna ... she knew she would no longer be the crazy and fanatical Rock & Roll girl, but she still had time for her rehearsals, her parents would not deny it, while they could stay with the others in home ... now after so long, she understood what Lori had to go through being always on their toes, now she knew what it was like to be an older sister and prevent the house from becoming a pile of rubble ...
- But now there was something that worried her, and it was Lucy and Lincoln ... regarding the fights ... it could be said that both Lucy and Lincoln had changed too much, although Lincoln and Lynn were becoming more united every day ... Lucy was She felt more melancholic than ever, so much so that sometimes she did not go down to dinner and spent more time in the portico of the house during the nights to be able to write her poems, apparently since Lincoln begged her parents for half a year to give her The Attic to be his new room, was one of the reasons why Lucy did not talk to him so much ... In the Attic there were many things that were of Grandfather Albert, the old photos, the Lincoln coffee jars for his Parents, but what was more there, was the old spell book that Lucy used on certain occasions ... along with the photograph of Great-grandmother Harriet.
- Lucy had already turned the Attic into a room for her rituals and spells, but now she did not have that space for those activities, and for her worst surprise came when Lily asked for Lincoln's old room for herself, since it bothered her to spend some nights while Lisa continued with her Experiments ... But who cared ... what they would have done if she refused ... he was less than Lincoln, not even Lynn bothered to help her ... and that was his roommate for years ... and although Lincoln tried to talk to her and to help her in her poems, things were no longer as before, the thing about Lincoln's Attic and proximity to Lynn had really depressed her, although she did not know I noticed him.
- Although Lincoln knew that Lucy was affected by that remoteness ... he had tried to talk to her and apologized for asking for the Attic, but dealing with her was already like talking to a true ghost ... Lincoln knew that He had bothered ... but he needed a new space, he was no longer 11 years old as before, now he was about to turn 15, and now that he studied drawing and art he needed his little studio to be able to develop his comics ... although the apologies were not enough ... he knew that with the ... the fight ... he had to stay there for his sister and now much more with Lucy ... he loved her more than the others, although he did not show it ... he was not a fool ... he knew that some day one of the girls was going to ask him the question he feared the most in his life ... "Who is your Favorite Sister" ... that question terrified him very much, but until now no one had told him ... but despite the fact that he loved his sisters equally, with whom he felt closer to him, he was Lucy, Lynn and Lily, although the latter was barely 4 years old ... but Lincoln did not want to be fighting with another sister more, much less with Lucy, she was that gothic sister who despite appearing suddenly, scaring everyone and personality cold, serious and melancholic, Lincoln knew that deep in his cold heart there was love in between ... and he knew it very well ... since he knew his most tender secret, according to him ... but the truth was not get away from her, and that was how one day a news story in the newspaper powerfully caught the attention of the albino, and it was the great opportunity to spend more time with his dark sister.
LINCOLN: Lucy ... you're there (knocking on the door of her room)
LYNN: What do you want Lincoln ... Lucy is not here, she went to the patio ...
LICOLN: Okay ... you don't have to bother so much
LYNN: Anyway ... I'm tired ... let me take my nap ...-_-
IN THE BACKYARD-
LINCOLN: Lucy ...? (reaching the tree in the yard)
LUCY: What do you want ...
LINCOLN: ehhh well ... I wanted to tell you something that I thought you would like ... it's about ... your Boyfriend (with a smiling tone)
LUCY: What are you talking about ... (blushing)
LINCOLN: (interrupting her) calm ... I'm talking about your beloved Edwin, the one from the vampire series ...!
LUCY: Ah ... (Blushing) ... Lincoln ... you know I don't care much about that series like before ... besides that ...
LINCOLN: I'm not going to cheat on you Lucy ... I know you still see Vampires from La Melancolia ... since you spend the nights in the portico then you will see the series in its night hours ... would you notice?
LUCY: That ... that ... that's not true ... (more blushing)
LINCOLN: hahaha, come on, you know daddy is afraid of monster series and movies and things like that ... Well, why am I telling you this ... it's because after several years ... Edwin will be at the Convention of Comics this coming week! (showing him the newspaper headline)
'' PARASHUT STUDIO ALREADY PREPARES THE PREMIERE OF THE FILM OF EDWIN THE VAMPIRE OF MELANCOLIA, SOON AT THE ROYAL WOODS CONVENTION ''
LUCY: that ... that ... can't be ... (surprised)
LINCOLN: That's right ... after I found out from the newspaper, I knew that your Edwin will be present to sign autographs, as you see it
LUCY: that ... it would be fantastic ... but ... you don't think the tickets will be very expensive ... also, some of the girls, like lana, lola or lily would like to go ...
LINCOLN: Yes ... I expected that, but don't worry ... the twins don't take vampire references too far, and Lily is still too young to go to conventions, also if I can get tickets online I could have VIP passes see him in person and have an autographed photo of him ... Besides, I also want to be in the comic contest now that I'm about to finish my work ... what do you say ... do you want to go with me?
LUCY: Okay ... I would love to go ... if that makes you happy ...
LINCOLN: no Lucy ... (taking her hands), it's something that makes you happy ...
LUCY: What are you talking about?
LINCOLN: Lucy ... I know that I have been acting like a jerk ... and that now I am acting annoying ... I have not been able to try to be like before since ... the fight ... is not something that I can fix quickly, but I want to make passes completely with you ... I don't want to get away from you ... I don't want another sister further from me
LUCY: ... Lincoln ...
LINCOLN: no ... I shouldn't have yelled at you like that ... and just because I was mad at Lori ... you weren't to blame for that fight ... you just wanted to help me ... but ... I was furious with lory and her damn ...
LUCY: ... neglect ... there is nothing to forgive ... besides ... you are always there for all of us ... (with a sad tone) ... I will gladly see Edwin, if you go with me, Lincoln ...
LINCOLN: Sure ... no problem ... I'll get the tickets as soon as possible ... (Thinking): ... Lucy ... I don't want to lose you too ... because ... because I behave like this ... I'm always there to cause problems for my sisters
- Lincoln could not stop thinking ... that this fight was all his fault ... now he was trying to make up for his mistake ... even though that fight with Lori, marked not only his life, but because he always felt weak. ... filled him with sadness ... although he finally got in shape thanks to the help of Lynn, he knew that what he had done on that occasion ... was something that should only be resolved with Lori ... and not take it out with the others and much less with Lucy ... he had already arranged things with the other girls, but only one of his 3 favorite sisters was missing.
- Already in her room, Lucy knew that her brother was trying to mend things with her ... she had already forgiven him for shouting it that way a long time ago, she did not deny having heard Lincoln cry the days following that fight ... But what is still not convincing is that he spent a lot more time with Lynn, not that it bothered her that ... but he thought that just by practicing karate with her he would make him ... more aggressive ... like a second Lynn. ... that was what left her bewildered ... she knew that Lincoln dedicated almost all his life to help everyone in the house that he barely had time for himself and his own things ... that was easier ... but later with time things were changing ...
Leni didn't need Lincoln as much for her fashion tests anymore, since she was working in a sewing studio ...
Luna still had her band and her friends, although she rarely asked Lincoln for help with her songs ...
Luan used to ask Lincoln sometimes at his Comedy Shows, but they weren't that often anymore ...
With Lola it was quite a case, since she now had great modeling ability despite being 9 years old, only once in thousands, she asked the albino to prepare her makeup and dresses ...
Lana still spent time with Lincoln when they were in the trash can looking for things that she would repair at home ...
Lisa was another case, since she spent more time in her room and now a laboratory, although she enjoyed continuing to use Lincoln as a test subject ...
And finally Lily, the most tender and sweet little of the sisters, always spent playing with Lincoln with her video games and liked to recreate the drawings that she did to her brother, she loved Lincoln, she was his adventure partner and sometimes he slept in your room.
- All those changes had been noticeable since Lori left the house loud ... but the sadness that Lucy felt, was not because of that fight, since both Lincoln and Lori had not yet made the passes ... what else She was sorry that she really considers Lincoln as more than her brother ... it was her Idol ... that young man who defended her from some boys who bothered her ... the one who blamed herself when it was the incident of the toilet and Princess Pony comic ... the one who always listened to her poems and the one who understood her emotional problems ... everything about him made her special ... but since she entered that club so she learned to defend herself .. ... now you spent almost most of the time with Lynn ... he did not bother with her ... she was his sister and he also had the right to spend time with him ... but that generated jealousy of brotherhood for the gothic girl ... .and over time he was moving away not only from Lincoln, but also from the rest of his sisters ... he was already despairing and the most hurt was that his brother Or was he the only close friend he had left ... although his intentions were somewhat selfish, he understood that he only did it to have his brother closer to her again ... The departure of a great person in his life, had It hurt millions of times that a werewolf bite ... the departure of her friend Haiku to Japan, had completely buried her Solitude.
- But now he had a small opportunity to spend more time with Lincoln ... that opportunity to go to that comic convention would give him a full day to spend with his special brother, and not only would he spend time with him, he would also fulfill his dream of Meeting her Idol of Television in Person ... it would be a day that Lucy would never forget, it was just a matter of waiting one more week, until the day that the convention would be.
- While in the Loud House things were going on, a certain actor was preparing for his trip to Royal Woods ... it was that vampire boy who melted the hearts of his fans and admirers with his cold, mysterious and misunderstood gaze, it was Edwin who is her department in the city of Los Angeles spoke to a certain person on the phone
EDWIN: And you already have what I asked you?
?: Yes, but I still don't get it ... do you really think they are back ... not that I wanted to worry, but ...
EDWIN: I know ... but you know very well that that convention in Michigan will be a day before the next Full Moon ... if that happens ... there will be no going back, and it would cause a huge panic.
?: I understand how you feel, but while the family still protects you, nothing will go wrong ... and believe me, you should not fear
EDWIN: Not that I'm afraid ... it's been more than ... (he receives another call on the line) ... hell, he's my agent ... then I'll talk to you, I'll attend to this jerk ... (attending to the call). What do you want now
AGENT: Hello star, what do you think, we have everything ready for the next week to go to the city of Royal Woods ... but first I must ask you something in return
EDWIN: and what would you need (with a serious tone)
AGENT: Well ... since your movie will not be released until the summer season, I wanted to ask you to take part of the merchandise from the movie that convention you know, for extra profit
EDWIN: Hey ... you know I do this for a vocation and not for money ... also I agreed to go to that place to get away from the cameras for a while, after making that movie I just want my vacation now ...
AGENT: And you will have them great, but you still have to finish filming with the 6th season for the promotion on television, then you can think about your eternal rest hahaha
EDWIN: Whatever ... leave me with Julio and have them put them on my plane before Tuesday ...
AGENT: That's how you talk, friend, well I'll leave you, time is money ... (hanging up)
EDWIN: Idiot ... to hire you ...
?: what did you say...
EDWIN: It wasn't for you ... it was for the flaw that I have as an Agent ... well, I'd better go to sleep ... tomorrow I'll have a lot to do ...
?: It is true ... I will call the clan ... we will see ... Guardian ...
EDWIN: bye ... (hanging) ... by the gods ... I never thought this would happen ... not now ... I thought this disaster would not come so soon ... and all these people in the world ... I will have to keep keeping up appearances for a while longer ... I hope that in this city, I find what I am looking for ... I only hope that it is the place that Victor had predicted ...
- For the Actor behind the vampiric character, it was not all glamor, his skills on camera were not things a double would do for him ... he was his own double, but he hid it from his admirers for things that no one would understand, things that could be in danger if life, but the lives of the whole world ... Edwin was hiding a great secret, a legend that says that on certain full moon nights, 3 chosen of God, they would stop an ancient war and that only They would bring peace to the world ... but it was almost impossible, especially in this time when everything that was culture of ghosts, monsters and vampire specters were now only considered a satire or simply something else from science fiction.
- Although for Edwin, it was a perfect facade to prevent them from knowing his true identity ... his true self ... Edwin ... that actor of that great series of vampires that drove his admirers crazy, he was not only a pretty face with thick lips and gleaming fangs ... he was a true and authentic vampire thousands of years old ... and that he was in this world to avoid the extinction of all Humanity, even if life depended on it.
