I don't own Digimon or The Loud House.

Well guys we reached ten reviews and you know what that means, I post the chapter early. This chapter will focus on Not-Leni's past and we'll get to see what happened to her. I remember having fun writing this chapter because I honestly kept coming up with different ways that I could've done this and in the end I could only choose one. So sit back and enjoy while we're all quarantined. If we get another ten reviews I'll post the next chapter early or otherwise the next date for a new chapter will be on the 5th of april.

Also a quick shout out to Fox-Mcloud501 and his story "The Loudest Hero". If you haven't checked it out yet I highly recommend it. He just posted a new chapter and it's pretty good. His story needs some love and reviews so do me a favor and go check it out.

Anyways, enjoy the chapter.

The Digi-Loud Adventure

Chapter 48: Split In The Past

As Leni enjoyed the warmth of her brother's body, she soon got a visitor that she hoped would give her a bit more time.

Hey...

Leni tried her best to ignore her twin.

Yoohoo!

Leni wondered what their first baby would be? A boy or a girl? She would honestly want one of each. They would be totes-

I swear to god that if you ignore me one more time that I'll make you fart right now!

"Sorry, were you calling me?" Leni asked her twin, pretending for once to be an airhead.

You know damn well that I was calling you! It's my turn now!

"Is it? I forgot." Leni said with an apologetic tone. "Let me just tell Lincy and I'll let you go next."

Wait, tell him that we're gonna shower first! Not-Leni sounded urgent as she called out to her twin.

"Why?" Leni asked, confused.

She could actually feel her twin's embarrassment. B-Because! I don't want him to smell me all sweaty and gross! I want my first time with him to be special and for him to think that I smell lovely and divine like a flower! Now go shower!

Leni sighed before she turned to face Lincoln. "Lincy?"

"Yea?" Lincoln asked as he looked into her eyes.

Leni could feel her cheeks growing warm as she stared into his eyes. His eyes were so blue and so warm, full of love and kindness. She almost forgot what she was going to say until she felt Not-Leni give her a mental kick. Leni jumped a bit which startled both of them.

"I, uh, gotta take a shower. Then it's going to be Not-Leni's turn." Leni quickly told him.

"Well why don't we shower together?" Lincoln suggested as he scratched his cheek in a way that they both found adorable.

Tell him nice try but I want to surprise him. I need at least an hour to get ready so he better be too. Not-Leni told her twin. She then added. Tell him that once he's done showering to go and take a walk and then meet us in his room when the hour is up.

'Okay...' Leni nodded. "Lincy, She wants to surprise you so please go shower alone and then meet us in your room in one hour. Take a walk or something please while we get ready." Leni told him.

"Alright, if that's what she wants." Lincoln agreed.

As they watched Lincoln get ready, Not-Leni was hurrying Leni along to leave so that they could get ready. She wanted to make her turn special and since Leni had already had her moment, Not-Leni was determined to make her own. She just hoped that Lincy liked what she had planned.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

As Lincoln walked around the home of Jijimon and Babamon, he couldn't help but stop and reflect about what had just happened. Over the last couple of days he had been intimate with not one but four girls. And after his night and morning with Lori, Lincoln had spoken to Sam in order to confess to her what he had done. He could still recall their conversation vividly.

::Flashback::

"You wanted to see me, Ace?" Sam had said as she wrapped her arm around his shoulder, giving him a side hug. Ever since they bonded, the two of them were more open with their feelings towards one another. Sam was no longer skittish about hugging him or even giving him a kiss on the cheek.

"Sam...I have to tell you something..." Lincoln said as he looked up at her. He could see that as she looked at him, that she would never expect him to confess what he was about to confess to. He was afraid of breaking her heart but he had to tell her, he had too.

"Sure thing, dude, you know that you can tell me anything." She assured him. She smiled warmly at him in a way that made him feel like a worse piece of shit than he already thought he was.

"Sam...I...l slept with Lori..." Lincoln finally said after battling himself. Not because he didn't want to tell her but because he wasn't sure how to tell her. In the end he decided to just come clean and rip the bandaid off.

But to his surprise, Sam just stared at him with her expression unchanged. She almost looked expectantly at him as if she were waiting for details.

"Sam, I slept with Lori, my sister." He repeated just in case she was in shock about his cheating on her.

"I know who she is, Ace." Sam chuckled.

"Sam. I cheated on you." He repeated a little more loudly, somehow bothered that she wasn't.

This time Sam laughed. She actually pulled back and held her stomach as she roared with laughter. It took her a few moments before she finally calmed down enough to look at him and even then she still had mirth in her eyes.

"Oh Ace, you're too much sometimes." She giggled as she reached over and ruffled his hair.

"Why aren't you upset with me? I cheated on you! I betrayed your trust and your love!" Lincoln wasn't sure why but he was more upset that she wasn't upset. Didn't she realize what a scumbag he was? That he was just as bad as he had always thought he was? That he was a monster that couldn't control his urges?

"Ace, I'm not upset because I already know." Sam finally told him when she noticed how upset he was getting. "Didn't Lori mention that she talked to me and asked me if I was okay for her to make her move?"

That gave Lincoln pause as he suddenly remembered that Lori had mentioned something about that. He suddenly felt embarrassed as he buried his face in his hands. He felt like such an idiot!

"Ace...we talked about this, dude, you gotta stop taking all the blame on your shoulders." Sam knelt down so that she was face to face with him. While not as tall as Lori, she only had to look up slightly to meet his eyes. She pulled his hands out of his face and then cupped his right cheek. "Let me guess, you were starting to think that you were a monster again for hurting me, huh?"

The look on his face was all the answer that she needed. Sighing, she shook her head as she pulled him down so that she could kiss his forehead.

"Ace, believe when I tell you that nothing you do will ever hurt me." When Lincoln looked up in order to protest she silenced him with a single finger to his lips. "Nothing you do will ever be a betrayal of our love. Because I love you and I want you to be happy. So if that means that you also love your sisters like you love me then it's okay because I know that you have more than enough love for all of us. It's one of your most admirable qualities."

"But how can you be okay with this?" Lincoln asked her. "I...I wouldn't be able to stand the idea of you being with another guy..."

This caused Sam to smile. "Ace, So long as you're happy then I'll be happy. I made my choice when I chose to love you. And believe me, no other man will ever have me. I'm yours and yours alone from now until always." She then leaned in and gave him a loving kiss. "But I will probably sleep with some of your sisters, just so you know."

Lincoln looked at her with wide eyes, his face crimson as his young mind tried and failed to not picture Sam in the throes of passion with several of his sisters. Seeing the look on his face, Sam laughed once more.

"Can you blame me? Some of your sisters are hawt!" she smirked at him.

::End of Flashback::

He had Sam's permission to make love to his sisters if they wanted to love him back. And while that in itself was amazing, Lincoln couldn't help but think that they had somehow planned it. He was the man with the plan for a reason, you know. And while he could chalk it up to coincidence that Lori and Luan might've made a move on him one after the other, Leni was too much. They had to have planned it, especially since Sam had told him that if he was happy with loving his sisters then she would be okay with it.

Everything led to her already knowing about their feelings and possibly even telling them about how he felt. Sure, Lori might've been able to figure it out and Leni was already in love with him. But Luan flat out tried (and succeeded) to seduce him, not that he tried to resist very much. And while his near death experience might've been the catalyst to them realizing that they loved him, Lincoln couldn't help but feel like there was something going on. Could things finally be going his way? Could his sisters really love and accept him? So far it seemed like everything was going smoothly but there was still Luna and Lynn left. Would they try to confess their feelings for him? He knew that Lynn at least already had, which made him feel kind of like a dick. And that punch he received from her now felt justified to him. He would have to make it up to her, he decided. Instead of her trying to come to him, he would make the first move and surprise Lynn.

And then his thoughts wandered on his sister Luna. Sam had been her best friend for so long and Lincoln was pretty sure that she had a crush on her. He wondered if perhaps she was feeling resentful towards him and that was why she hadn't really spoken to him since they left almost two weeks ago to find their crests. He honestly couldn't blame her if she did since in her eyes, he had stolen the girl of her dreams. Sighing, Lincoln once again started to go down that familiar road of self loathing.

But as soon as he did, he could hear Sam telling him to knock it off. Her mental image brought a smile to his lips and he resolved himself to at least talk to his sister. He owed Luna that much at least. Who knew? Maybe Luna was in love with him just like he was in love with her. It seemed like anything was possible in the DigiWorld.

It was nearing the end of the hour that Not-Leni had asked him for and Lincoln was eager to find out what she had in store for him. It was a little strange because Not-Leni was a part of his sister that seemed to have been formed from her own psyche. But she was also in love with him and had sworn to never hurt him. And while she tended to act like a different version of his sister, Not-Leni was still very much his sister too. He could recall moments in their past when he could catch a glimpse of Not-Leni's influence in his normally kind hearted sister.

Lincoln didn't believe that his sister, either of them, was crazy. But he hoped that there was a way to help them become one again. Right now they were split and neither was whole and that made Lincoln want to help them. Perhaps he had a hero complex but he felt a strong urge to be the one to save them. Then both of them could be happy together instead of having one of them trapped inside while watching the other live life.

Sighing, Lincoln knew that eventually he would have to talk to Lori about it. If anyone deserved to know it was her. As the oldest and as Leni's best friend, Lori might have insight on this situation that Lincoln didn't. The only other people that hung out with Leni as much as Lori did were Becky, Jackie, and Mandee. And while he didn't see Jackie and Mandee very much, he was friends with Becky.

This caused Lincoln to stop as he looked wistfully in the distance. Becky was one of the girls that he had a crush on back on earth. He never said anything because he was still a boy compared to her but he did like her. She was fun, beautiful, and she liked Ace Savvy. Whenever there was a convention, she would go as his Lady Ace along with their other friends, Chaz and Joey. She would often joke that Cons were the only times that they could go out on dates because no one would make a fuss. Thinking about it, did she somehow know about Leni's feelings for him? Or was she just being playful?

Sadly, he would probably never know. Not only was he stuck in a whole other world but he also had that prophecy to worry about. He had so much to lose now and that much more to fight for, Lincoln couldn't die now. And he would do everything that he could to make sure that he would survive, even if it meant tearing fate apart. It would probably take a miracle to do that but luckily that was his crest so there was a chance. And that's all he would need.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Lincoln opened the door to his room and stepped inside. It was completely dark and he couldn't see a single thing. But once the door was shut, a single light was turned on over his bed and sitting down wearing a big pink robe was Not-Leni. She was sitting with one leg over the other and she was casually propped up with her hands behind her on the bed. She was staring at him like a hawk who finally caught sight of the bunny it had been chasing. She licked her lips hungrily as she gave him a predatory smirk.

"Hey~ I was wondering when you'd get here..." Not-Leni purred as she slowly made to get off of the bed. Her every movement was calculated and she never took her eyes off of him.

She made her way over to her, her hips swaying from side to side even underneath the pink bathrobe. Once she was halfway towards him, she reached down and pulled off the pink fluffy rope that was tied around her waist. She grabbed each end and playfully threw it over Lincoln's head so that it came to rest on his shoulders.

"Lincy~ Are you ready for what I got planned for you?" She asked as she pulled him in close to her, her eyes piercing through his very soul.

If anyone ever had a doubt about whether or not Leni and Not-Leni were two different people then all they would have to do is look into their eyes. Both of them had blue eyes, that much was obvious. But Leni had a kind hearted and bubbly demeanor that could put even the toughest of individuals at ease. The fact that she was able to make friends with Ogremon and his tribe was a testament to that. And that was another thing that Linc still needed to do, when Ogremon came back to the village he would have to thank the champion Digimon for protecting his sister.

Not-Leni on the other hand, her eyes held a look of a woman who was confident, self-assured, and knew what she wanted. There was a calculated look in her eyes that Leni only seemed to have when she worked on her fashion. And right now, Not-Leni was using that look in order to get what she wanted and what she wanted that night was him. Lincoln Loud.

"W-What do you have in mind?" Lincoln asked. Yea, he was still nervous when it came to sex, alright! He was still 12, damn it, and Not-Leni looked even sexier than Leni did! Her half lidded expression and that lustful smile that she was giving him were almost too much for him to handle. And it was taking everything that he had to not pass out.

"Lincy~ you don't have to be nervous..." She said as she began to lead him towards the bed. She gently pushed him down towards the bed and once he was seated, she tied his hands in front of him with the pink fluffy rope. "Just sit there and enjoy the show..."

Not-Leni then walked over to the desk where her phone was located and she turned on a second light in the middle of the room. With another touch of the screen, music began to play and she took that as her cue to stand in the center of the second light. She then slowly reached up and pulled away her robe, revealing a light green see through nightgown with matching panties. Lincoln's breath caught in his throat as he tried and failed to breathe as he stared at the sight before him. Not-Leni seemed to be desire personified as she let the robe fall to the floor and pool around her feet. Her lustful grin only seemed to deepen as she watched how he was reacting to her display. She had him under her spell and all she needed to do now was claim was what hers. She took a step towards him, her eyes on the pri-

Not-Leni's eyes widened with shock as she felt her feet get caught on the bathrobe on the floor. She stumbled and lost her balance and as she fell forward, she heard herself scream in fear. But to her surprise, she didn't fall far as she felt herself get held up by a warm body. Opening her eyes slightly, she saw that her Lincy had managed to catch her. The pink rope was lying on the floor as he seemed to have ripped it off somehow and his strong arms were wrapped protectively around her.

"Are you okay?" She heard him ask.

Not-Leni couldn't help it. She began to cry in his arms as she sniffed.

"Hey, what's the matter? Did you get hurt?" Lincoln asked as he led her to the bed. He sat her down and he began to inspect her ankles.

"N-No..." She sniffed. The reason she was crying was because all of her efforts were totally wasted because she was a total klutz! Not only that but she embarrassed herself in front of her Lincy when she was trying her hardest to be sexy so that he would want her! It was incredibly frustrating.

"Then what's wrong?" Lincoln asked kindly. He was still knelt in front of her and he had placed a single hand on her thigh.

Not-Leni pulled her hands away so that she could look into his caring blue eyes. They always did make her feel better whenever she felt like a loser. "I-I'm crying because I failed..." She muttered.

"Failed at what?" Lincoln asked though he had a sneaking suspicion he knew what.

"At my chance to make you want me..." Not-Leni said sadly as she buried her face in her hands once more.

Lincoln reached up with his hands and gently pulled away her hands so that he could see her beautiful face. "Hey now...what makes you think that I don't want you anymore?"

"Lincy...I'm not Leni, I know that you don't love me like you love her..." Not-Leni told him as she looked down at her hands. She couldn't bear to look him in the eyes and see that she was right. Even though she knew it was true, seeing it in his eyes would only make it more real. So long as she didn't see his eyes, see the truth in them, then she could still pretend. It was all that she had. "You don't know me...you don't know anything about me..."

"Is that what you think?" Lincoln asked her. When she nodded her head, Lincoln stood up and sat down beside her. "Well, it's true that we're practically strangers considering that we just officially met a few days ago." Not-Leni felt her eyes burn as fresh tears threatened to fall once more. "But...I think I've always known you...or at least, I've seen bits and pieces of you over the last few years."

"What do you mean?" Not-Leni asked as she turned to look at him. She was confused as to what he was referring to. There was no way that he knew that she existed before coming there...could there?

"Not-Leni...what's the first memory that you have of just you. Not one that you shared with Leni but the first one where you were aware that you existed." Lincoln asked her.

"I don't see what that's got to do with this right now." She told him.

"Just humor me please."

"Alright..." Not-Leni closed her eyes and began to search her own memory of what she could recall from the beginning.

She tried hard to recall anything that she could. At first all she could see were memories that she shared with Leni. Which made sense since they were two halves to the same whole. But as she dug deeper, Not-Leni was able to find the first memory that felt like her own. They were just around 5 years old and they were standing in the living room eagerly awaiting the return of their parents. Their Pop Pop was sitting down on the couch watching tv while they all huddled around the door. And the sound of Vanzilla pulling into the driveway could be heard.

A few moments later the front door was opened and in came their parents with their mother holding a small orange bundle in her arms. She smiled as she introduced them to their new baby brother. They waited patiently for their turn as their grandfather and Lori got to hold him first. And then it was their turn.

She could see their younger self reaching out with trembling arms from both giddy anticipation and nervousness. They gently took their baby brother into their tiny arms and gazed upon his face. He looked so adorable that they couldn't help but fall in love with him. And when he looked up at her and smiled, both of their hearts burst with happiness. At that moment they had never felt more at peace with themselves and for the first time in their lives, both of them felt like they were on the same page.

But then as she took her time to enjoy holding her new baby brother in her arms, Luna and Luan, both who were impatient by that point, snatched her precious Lincy away. While outwardly Leni only showed sadness at having her precious brother taken away from her. Inwardly, Not-Leni felt herself burning with an uncontrollable rage. How Dare they take her precious baby brother away from her! But as Not-Leni tried to fight back against her sisters and take her precious Lincy back, she felt something holding her back.

Turning towards her side, she saw a young Leni holding her wrist as she cried silent tears. Not-Leni, being the same age, tried to pull herself free.

"Let go of me!" Not-Leni shouted as she tried to break free.

"No..." Leni said with a shake of her head.

"Why not? They're taking our Lincy away! He's ours! He's ours!" Not-Leni stopped struggling against her twin and began to shout in her face.

"Because..." Leni reached up and wrapped her arms around her angry twin. "I don't want to hurt them...it's not nice to be mean."

"So you want to be sad then?" Not-Leni demanded as she tried to push away her nicer counterpart. She struggled a bit but she managed to push Leni away and she stood in what used to be their room. "You want us to not have Lincy in our arms because you don't want to be mean?"

"I don't want Lincy to see us be mean..." Leni tried to plead her case to her twin. She had her hands closed into tiny fists and she held them right underneath her chin. Sniffing, she continued. "Lincy won't love us if we're mean so we have to be nice..."

"No! Lincy will hate us if we don't fight for him! They can't take him away! Not from me!" Not-Leni said as she tried to shove past Leni. But as she tried, Not-Leni found that she couldn't leave the room. The door wouldn't open no matter how hard she tried. "Let me out!"

"No..." Leni said sadly as she slowly began to fade away. "Until you're nice, I won't let you out."

"You need me! You can't live without me to save you!" Not-Leni shouted but even as she did, fear was quickly gripping her chest as she rushed towards her fading twin. She didn't know how but Leni had somehow taken control from her and now she was the one who was stuck inside of their head. "Please, Leni! Don't do this! We just need to get our Lincy back! He's mine! He's mine-

"He's mine! He's mine!"

"Not-Leni, snap out of it!"

Not-Leni felt herself get shaken out of whatever memory she had been in because all of a sudden she found herself being held at arm's length by Lincoln. Her precious Lincy. As she tried to speak, she found that her words got caught up in her throat and Not-Leni broke down for the second time that day. This time however she was being overwhelmed by the powerful emotions that she recalled from that day. The day that she and Leni split for good and Leni had locked her away in their subsconscious. From what she could recall, she and Leni had always been together but that one moment had split them apart. Because while she had wanted to take back what she saw as hers, Leni chose to be the kind and forgiving one and allow her sisters to also enjoy their new brother. And it was perhaps that love of their brother, for their brother, that gave Leni the strength to lock her away. And as much as Not-Leni wanted to, she knew in her heart that Leni had done the right thing. She had avoided a fight that could have ended up hurting their new born brother.

Not-Leni was barely aware when her precious Lincy had wrapped his arms around her and began to whisper sweet words into her ear. But she did know that she didn't deserve him. Yet despite not deserving him, she clung onto him greedily as she sobbed into his chest. That memory had reminded her of how destructive her anger could be and she was scared of what she could've done that day if Leni hadn't stopped her. Leni had every right to lock her away and all of the anger that she had towards her twin instantly vanished. She now hated herself for the monster that she was.

And as she held onto him, Not-Leni hated the fact that she still couldn't let him go. She didn't want to and that made it worse because she was a danger to him. She didn't deserve him...

To be continued.
