Chapter 633.
"Back home again."
(July 25. Royal Woods.)
The louds and everyone else are back home and they're all just doing fine and trying to relax and calm down. Lincoln is chilling by himself in the tree house, and he looks to the window and smiles at the summer time daylight.
He then gets up and he grabs his phone and sees the text messages from his friends, and also the text about Rusty going to be back soon, and this doesn't seem to make him in much of a good mood. But he checks on the messages anyway.
Jordan. Hey handsome, so Ryan and I are gonna go and hang out by the Arcade and then we're gonna go to the mall and meet up with Gretchen and Hope. Have fun relaxing by yourself, after what felt like a week at Camp Mastodon, we could use some alone time. We'll be able to tell the others what we did, soon.
Clyde. Rusty will be back somewhere this week, and when he does get out from being grounded, then we can talk to him about what he did wrong. I mean, I feel bad that Rusty did that and was caught on camera, also a lot of folks are now rallying against the game that's making other feel twisted. I mean, a vampire lady? Also, I think Polly wants to beat up Rusty.
Gretchen. The so-called Back to School sale has been moved, due to the date of the school release time being changed, so this is super awkward. Also, here's the date of when we go back to Middle School: September 8, same goes with High School and Elementary School.
Mark. Angel and I are at Great Lakes City, and all thanks to her big sister. We're gonna see what Ronnie Anne and Sid are doing and find out what's been happening. Can't wait to hear about what you guys did at Camp Mastodon.
Lincoln smiles and then he puts his phone away. "I could use some bike time." He gets out of the tree house and he locks the door, he notices the science space capsule is open and he hears Lisa is inside and doing something. So, he lets her be.
Lincoln comes down the ladder and he makes it to the ground. He watches as Butterfree flutters by some flowers, and then he spots the eagles flying around, but they're only Raptor the Staraptor and Apollo the Talonflame.
Lincoln then heads to the front yard so he can get to his bike, but then he sees Lori is about to go into her car. "Hey Lori, going somewhere?"
"I am. To the mall, I have to meet up with Carol so we can talk about the whole return to college thing, and that date is on September 1. Looks like I'll be going back to classes first." Lori then goes into her car, and then she looks to her brother. "Need a lift bro?"
Lincoln grabs his bike and he shakes his head in denial. "No thanks, Lori. I don't have anywhere important to be, just gonna ride around and enjoy this day."
"Alright then, see you later, Linc." Lori drives off to the mall and Lincoln rides off to wherever he goes, and with Apollo and Raptor following him
(Later.)
Lincoln continues his ride around the neighborhood and then he spots Clyde talking with Chloe as they walk and he slow down and talks to them. "Hey guys, where were you guys going?"
Clyde smiles seeing Lincoln. "Hey Linc. Chloe and I just got back from her place, and we needed to find someplace else to try this cooking experiment that we had planned."
Chloe nods. "We can't do it in the kitchen, not when my baby sister is doing her… DJ practices. For a young toddler, she knows how to crank it up to eleven. Kinda like, Luna."
Lincoln chuckles. "Yeah, that does make sense. Also, Clyde, I got your text and we're gonna have a serious talk for when Rusty does come back from being grounded. I mean, he did this to himself and he became a mess for doing that, and she's just a video game character!"
Chloe nods. "Yeah, word of him close to being released from being grounded came from Jenny, and she got that Intel from Rocky. He doesn't seem to be okay with his own big bro anymore. I don't think he'll ever look up to him and we're hoping you could chat with Rocky."
Clyde then speaks. "Rocky needs a big brother figure. This state of himself not wanting to be around Rusty and his dad, it might not be good and we were hoping either you or Lucy could help him, or maybe both. From what we heard, he hasn't attended any morticians club lately."
This did sound like a concern towards Lincoln. "Let me see what I can do, and then I'll tell you guys." He then rides off, and Clyde and Chloe wave goodbye to him and they continue with their own walk to the McBride's house.
Lincoln keeps going on his bike and he thinks about what Clyde and Chloe said. 'Dang it, Rusty. You're making a wedge that's going between you and everyone else. That wedge was caused by your dad and his dumb old fashioned hookup advice, and then came you and that damned Resident Evil Game!'
'I know that Lance, Trent and Artie are super miffed at you for going through that and acting all perverted to a video game character. I mean…. I know we're growing up, and hitting puberty, but to be caught on camera while doing something… Totally inappropriate like that and…'
Then this confused Lincoln. "Wait, who the heck posted the video of Rusty doing that?" He then stops his bike and goes through any notifications, and he sees a removed live stream from last month, and it involved Rusty.
Lincoln knows that this kind of information would be hard to find. 'I can ask Lisa later, maybe she can help me. But if she can't, then I'm getting the truth from Rusty on how this messed up thing happened.' Lincoln continues his ride through the neighborhood.
Apollo and Raptor continue to watch over Lincoln and they scan the area for any signs of anything bad, but they don't even notice the hidden black van that is hiding and following Lincoln Loud.
(Moments later.)
Lincoln arrives at the Rosato neighborhood and he stops his bike and looks onto the mansion of the Rosato Family. He smiles as he can see the eagle sanctuary and inside are Harrier and Nora, and both of them are tending to their eggs.
Also with them are Patriot, Valkyrie, Freya and Artemis and they too help make some nests, which could mean Artemis and Freya also wanna be prepared, then Apollo and Raptor fly in and check on their mates, and we all know where Bullets and Swellow are located.
'Pretty soon, those 5 eggs will hatch and then we can see the younglings they have, another generation for the eagles. But this is gonna be kinda confusing… Bald Eagle and a North American Golden Eagle. We'll only know once we see them hatch possibly next month.'
Lincoln then rides off and he continues to enjoy this summer day on his bike, and he doesn't even know that the black van is now hiding at another place, and the periscope above spots the eagles and a woman smiles seeing this.
"There they are. The biggest discovery of the century, and this will make a true mark for Incognito Labs. To be the ones to study all about this hybrid of two forms of eagles and then we may be able to advance and make something out of it. This will be my greatest success."
"Along with capturing one of those odd and powerful wildlife in the town. But I can't do that with those damned FutureTech forces watching over the place and… Wait, are those cameras at the eagle's sanctuary?!"
There are Burst Drone surveillance cameras and they keep tabs on the eagle eggs. This makes the woman in the van growl.
"No! No! This will not do, I must find some way to get in there and not be caught! FutureTech is not going to best Incognito Labs! We are superior and those eagles will be our ticket to our latest experimental projects!"
She then drives her van and it evades cameras and ensures the eagles don't spot her, but something does and it looks to the van confused and some sparks come from it and it hides back into the ground.
To be continued…
A/N: Well, they're back home and they already have some stuff to deal with. Let it be Rusty and the truth, all the day to Incognito Labs, and they're head honcho, Dr. Caroline Linnaeus. Leave a review and tell me what you all think.
I wanna say thank you to "Texasranger1996" for the dates that could work for them to return to Elementary School, Middle School, High School and of course, College.
Date made: 6/19/21 – 6/20/21.
