Far across the great rivers, large mountains, an open grassy fields of the state of Michigan their existed a town that was unique from any other town in the state of Michigan as for those who enter the town the first thing they saw was a sign that told them Welcome to Royal Woods.
Royal Woods, Michigan is like any other town that is slowly developing as time moves on as the population of the town increases either by people moving to Royal Woods or are being born into Royal Woods.
Royal Woods had everything one would expect of an average American Town including its own School district which went from pre kinder all the way to high school.
There we're all so many mom and pop shops all around Royal Woods as everyone including the ones in charge of maintaining the town valued their citizens.
Royal Woods also had famous businesses like Flip's Food and Fuel, home of the Flippy, although sometimes it's hard to know what's fresh and what's expired thanks to the con man who owns Flip's Food and Fuel, Philip Philippini, or better known as Flip hence the name of the convenience store / gas station.
There were also high-end restaurants in Royal Woods like the Aloha Comrade or Jean Juan's French Mex Buffet, two of the most popular locations and all of Royal woods thanks to their fusion cuisine.
There is also the newest trendiest restaurant that has pretty much everyone in Royal Woods going at least once a month Lynn's Table, known for their at home cuisine that is also unique with a bit of a twist!
Many different people called royal Woods their home like the extremely wealthy like local rich man Lord Tetherby or the hard-working middle class like the local dentist of Royal Woods Dr. Feinstein
Many unique groups called royal Woods their home but if there was one group that stood out from among the others it would have to be the Loud family of twelve sixteen Franklin Street, as they lived on Franklin Avenue.
One may asked why the Loud family stands out from the others?
Well the answer is simple...
Rita and Lynn Loud Sr are the proud parents of a whopping eleven children. Ten girls and one boy all of whom are different from each other even the Rita as Lynn Loud Sr's twin daughters.
The Loud children were just as unique as their parents, which they most likely got from their parents as their mother is a writer for the Royal Woods Gazette and their father is the owner and head chef of Lynn's Table.
But if there was one individual that kept the house in check it would have to be the middle child and only son Lincoln Loud.
What this twelve year old boy who for some reason was born with natural white hair didn't know was... he was about to discover something that what changes destiny.
Forever...!

"Uaaahhhhhhh!"said a white haired preteen as he got up from his bed that look like it was in a very small bedroom that was at one point a closet.
This preteen walked over to his mirror to reveal that he was wearing orange pajamas and that his white hair was in signature turkey tail with freckles and his teeth being bucked with a chip in it.
This individual was not other than Lincoln loud the middle child of the Loud family.
"Man I had that crazy dream last night about that... samurai... again"said Lincoln as he began recalling the dream he had just a few minutes earlier.
[Flashback]
Lincoln was walking through a bamboo forest wearing a raggedy yukata that look like it had stitch patterns all over from the various rags sewn on to it.
He was carrying a straw basket and had a traditional Japanese straw hat on his head as he was looking around worried as it was the dead of night with only the full moon allowing him to see into the darkness.
As he was walking through the bamboo forest he heard a snap and looked around.
There just a few feet away from him was someone who look like a samurai as he was wearing a white kimono with Blue Wave like designs on the sleeves and bottom area with a blue obi around his waist.
He was wearing geta wooden sandals with linen wrapping around his arms and legs.
His hair was tied in a traditional Japanese ponytail and he appeared to have bandages around his face.
He looked everything like a normal samurai... except he looked like a zombie samurai.
One the light of the full moon shined on him Lincoln could see that he was not of the living as he had no nose or eyes as they look like they had rotted off and his skin was a gross green color.
Lincoln then noticed what was strapped on his right hip as he tried backing away slowly before the zombie samurai noticed him.
On his hip was a katana but Lincoln couldn't see it too well because it was hidden by darkness.
"You..."said the zombie samurai as he pointed his bony finger at Lincoln.
Lincoln couldn't do nothing but stumbled back in fear falling on his behind as the zombie samurai started to slowly walk towards him.
"What do you want!"yelled Lincoln as he got up.
"Come!"said the zombie samurai is he started getting closer.
"NO!"yelled Lincoln at the top of his lungs as he got up and tried to get away.
Lincoln ran through the bamboo as fast as he could every so often looking behind him to see if the zombie samurai was still there.
Sure enough despite being a zombie the zombie samurai was running after him with the sound of his wooden sandals being heard with each step he took.
Lincoln took a deep breath and began running as fast as he could but no matter how fast or how far he run it's like the zombie samurai was always behind him.
...Finally Lincoln's legs muscles felt like they were on fire and his lungs ran out of oxygen causing him to collapse of the floor tired as they felt like his body was on fire while at the same time he was gasping for air.
As Lincoln lied there on the grassy field he managed to get to he looked up and noticed that there was a tree that look like it had some kind of long wooden box attached to it.
Lincoln was wondering what was in that box until he heard the sound of wooden sandals slowly approaching him from behind.
Feeling like he was going to pee his pants Lincoln slowly looked around to see the zombie samurai slowly walking towards him.
"Find...it!"said the zombie samurai as he pointed towards the Box.
"You...will.. know...where...it...is!"said the zombie samurai is he pointed at the wooden box before walking away.
Lincoln was confused by this as he was panting like crazy as everything that had just happened was so crazy as he sure he was about to be eaten.
What was in that box that the zombie samurai wanted him to?!
Why did he feel compelled to find the Box?!
What was in the box?!
[Flashback End]
"I shouldn't focus on that strange dream as it's a Saturday which means I don't have to go to middle school and spend the next several hours in Mr Bolfohner's class sweating like a pig."said Lincoln as he began changing out of his orange pajamas.
Lincoln started by putting on his gray socks and then put on his usual blue jeans and orange polo shirt. Finally he finished putting on his white sneakers carefully tying his laces nice and tight as he didn't Luan to tie a shoe laces again causing him to trip just because they were too loose... again.
After he was done putting on his clothes Lincoln walked over to the mirror and began combing his hair even though it didn't appear to do anything but Lincoln like doing it as he like thinking of himself as a Savvy man.
"And done... hello handsome what did you do with bed Head Lincoln."said Lincoln as he gave himself a double thumbs up.
"Well time for breakfast."said Lincoln as he walked out of his bedroom only to see the chaos that was his house... on a Saturday morning.
Ever since his oldest sister Lori moved away to a dorm room at Fairway University it's been up to him and Leni to maintain the peace in the Loud house, which is never an easy job since it's hard for Leni to be mean and Lincoln has a hard time getting his other siblings to listen.
All around he could see all the chaos of a usual morning at the Loud house.
Two 7-year-olds that were identical in appearance but wearing completely different clothing which consisted of a pink dress and blew overalls over a green shirt were fighting over a dollar bill.
These where the twins Lana and Lola Loud.
Lincoln let out a sigh as he took the dollar bill away and gave them each fifty cents.
"Thanks Lincoln."said Lana and Lola at the same time as they went back into their bedroom.
"Hey Lincoln."said a dark haired pale skin girl wearing a black dress with black and white leggings and long sleeves.
She was Lucy Loud, the Goth and misunderstood poet of the Loud family and one of Lincoln's closest sisters.
Now normally Lincoln would have jumped in the air screaming as Lucy's usual routine of appearing out of nowhere usually scared him but this morning he just reacted normally and turned around.
"What's up Lucy?"asked Lincoln as Lucy looked at him with a surprise look but only for a split second before she changed back to her usual grim expression.
"Great Grandma Harriet told me you had the zombie samurai dream again."said Lucy who seems you have an ability to communicate with the spirits in the afterlife.
"Yeah... did she tell you anything about that zombie samurai."said Lincoln who told Lucy about the dream as he's been having it quite a few times over the last several days.
"She just said that it's an ancient spirit and that somehow it's connected to you..."said Lucy as when she ask great grandma Harriet about the samurai she wouldn't go into too many details.
"Yeah that sounds like Great Grandma Harriet never telling everyone everything she knows and waits for everyone to find out everything themselves."said Lincoln as this is not the first time they have contacted they're great-grandmother.
"Do you... want to talk about it."said Lucy who was interested since the dream Lincoln was having was basically about an undead samurai and for a Goth like Lucy, it was easy to get her interest.
"Oh please I'm sure this dream about a zombie samurai is just a bunch of hooey."said a small girl wearing thick glasses wearing a green sweater and red baggy pants.
She was the second youngest child but without a doubt the smartest out of everyone in the house including the parents. She was child prodigy with a PhD and a junior Nobel prize Lisa Loud.
"Lisa I know your brain doesn't accept the supernatural but trust me I've seen the supernatural for myself."said Lincoln who one time went ghost hunting with his best friend Clyde and actually saw a spirit orb.
"I still say that was swamp gas."said Lisa whose scientific mind would not accept anything considered supernatural.
"Whatever."said Lincoln as Lisa walked down the stairs to get to the dining room.
"Oh don't worry little bro, I'm sure it's nothing."said a teenage girl with short brown hair wearing a sleeveless purple shirt with a skull on it, plaid purple pants, and knee-high purple boots.
She was resident musician and want to Lincoln's closest sisters Luna Loud.
"Thanks Luna."said Lincoln as Luna waved him goodbye before walking down the stairs.
Lincoln was about to follow her until he noticed the tripwire and step back.
"Nice try Luan."said Lincoln as other teenage with brown hair and a ponytail wearing a sleeveless white shirt with a flower on it, yellow plaid shirt, yellow knee high socks with brown shoes with similar flowers.
She was resident comedian and jokester Luan Loud.
"Oh come on you were going to get me eggcited hahahahaha! Get it!"said Luan as it was revealed that the tripwire led to a bag holding dozens of eggs inside of it that was meant to pour over Lincoln.
"Not today."
"Dang ever since you been having that weird dream your senses have become really sharp... hahaha get it, because you're having dreams of a samurai."said Luan as the sound of a cricket chirping be heard.
"Eh... no one appreciates good comedy."said Luan as she walked down the stairs.
"I didn't get it at all."said a teenage girl wearing a light green sundress with white sunglasses on top of her long yellow hair.
She was the second oldest Loud child and the current oldest child of the house, fashionista Leni Loud.
"Hey Leni."said Lincoln as his older sister noticed the bags under his eyes.
"Oh Lincoln are you having that bad dream about that samurai who chases after you. It's a darn shame since I've always loved Japanese clothing since I've seen you yukatas and kimonos that are just that are just... so cute!"said Leni who one day hope to make a beautiful kimono for herself to wear.
"Yeah Leni I know"said Lincoln as Leni walk down the stairs but not before Lincoln stopped her from falling for the egg trap Luan set up.
"Man Lincoln you need to man up everyone has bad dreams now and again like I had that bad dream the other day where I ended up in second place."said a teenage girl with her brown hair in a ponytail.
Unlike Luan this girl was wearing a red and white jersey with a number one on the front, red athletic shorts, an athletic shoes.
She was the jock/massive sports fan of the family Lynn Loud Jr.
"Lynn I don't know what's bothering me about that dream it just feels so...real."said Lincoln as Lynn tried to punch him in the shoulder but he got out of the way.
"Dang, Luan's right ever since you been having you have been having those samurai dreams you're moving faster and seeing Luan's traps you normally would have fell for. I try to say I'm impressed."said Lynn as she patted her brother on the shoulder before walking down the stairs.
The twins walked down the stairs as well after bumping into Lincoln before heading down the stairs as it was almost time for breakfast.
"What could the dream mean Lincoln?"asked Lucy as although her expression didn't show it she was worried about her brother as he always looked out for her.
"I don't know Lucy but strangely I feel like that's samurai is trying to tell me something I just don't know what it is. Maybe it's a premonition."said Lincoln as he and Lucy walk down the stairs as their stomach started.
Their stomachs were basically saying go down and get breakfast!
A short while later Lincoln and the rest of his family were sitting at the dining table waiting for their breakfast.
"Daddy hurry up I'm getting hangry!"said Lola who needed her food at a specific time or at least that's what she says.
"So kids you have anything planned for this very Saturday."said a middle-aged woman with blonde hair wearing a red blouse and purple pants.
She was the mother of the Loud family, Rita Loud, local author and writer for the Royal Woods Gazette.
"Well Lori is coming back to Royal Woods for the weekend so we are going to the mall."said Leni with the rest of the Loud sisters agreeing.
"Eh... not me I'm just going to walk around and try to clear my head a little."said Lincoln surprising his sisters and mother.
"Are you still having that bad dream about that zombie samurai?"asked Rita with concern as in this house there was hardly any secrets so pretty much everyone knew about Lincoln's bad dreams involving the samurai.
"I just don't know what what the dream means."said Lincoln as a balding man wearing a green sweater and brown pants walked into the dining room with several plates with food on them.
He was their father and the owner of Lynn's Table Lynn Loud Sr
"Eat up and remember since it's Saturday it will be the busiest day of the week for the restaurant so I'll be home late."said Lynn Sr.
"Thanks Dad."said Lincoln as his father handed him his usual breakfast which was a cheese burrito with potato.
Lincoln happily started eating his meal as it was the first good thing that happened to him today ever since he had that strange dream.
"The Woods..."said the voice of the zombie samurai causing Lincoln to stop eating wondering why he was hearing it as he was awake.
'Did anyone else here that?!' wondered Lincoln looking around noticing that his family was busy eating which told them they were not hearing what he was hearing.
"Go...to...the Woods! Find it!"said the samurai voice as for some reason Lincoln felt compelled to go into the woods.
'Okay I need to put a stop to this now so I'll do what the voices telling me! If it means I will finally be rid of those strange dreams then so be it!'thought Lincoln as he took another bite of his cheese burrito.
What Lincoln didn't know that going into the woods would change his destiny forever!
Hey guys PrimusPilus here with some news.
You guys basically already know what's going on thanks to the summary so I'll get right to the point.
Yes I have decided to do a story where Lincoln find the sword in the woods as that was the one that was most requested.
And that Sword is none other than Shusui!
To those who have read One Piece or have watched the anime you known everything about the legendary national treasure of Wano Shusui!
Now the reason I did not put this on the crossover section is because this story will lean more towards originality than anything the Great Oda, who I dearly respect has created.
This story will lean more to my own personal writing style and I don't want to disgrace Oda's good name with my amateur skills.
So yeah... that's how things are going to work.
Anyway next chapter Lincoln will find Shusui but what he doesn't know is by doing this things will forever change for him!
How well thanks for ever change for him?
Well... you will just have to read the next chapter to find out what should be up in a couple of days so until then.
This is PrimusPilus signing out and hoping to see all of you wonderful readers next time as the journey continues.
