Chapter 631.

"Camped 4."

(July 23, Camp Mastodon.)

Day has come and everyone is enjoying some breakfast, but they all notice that the chef who made the food is not around. They all see the food left for all the campers and they all enjoy the good meal that tastes amazing.

While they're eating, Jordan looks around. "So, where the heck is your dad?"

"No clue" said Lincoln. "We haven't seen him since last night and we still can't forget the state he was in." The rest of the louds recall the other day.

They were all told about Rick Rosato and what he did when he was at Camp Mastodon and how he was the 5 time winner and the one who helped show that Camp Mastodon was the best. While Lynnard didn't do much to help, and Rick had to help him every once in a while.

This made the loud sisters confused, and they knew they're dad isn't the bravest or the strongest, but only skilled in cooking and… ringing a cowbell. But they never thought he was less of a camper, and always tried to have fun, even if it harmed him, but he was always picked on by the other campers.

But hearing the names of the three campers, now that ticks them off. Which means, that all this time, Stan Stankco, Doug Rockwell and Derrick Carson were threats to the loud family since Camp Mastodon, and Lynnard Loud was the one who had to endure them, and couldn't stand up to them.

Michelle is as furious as hell. 'Doug Rockwell?! He was here before?! Are you kidding me?!'

After they were told so much about Lynn Sr, they saw him come back and a total crying mess and he was escorted back to the cabin, with Rita alongside him. Leonard Loud then told them all about what the camp was before, when Rick was around and Lynnard wanted to have fun.

Lynn Jr was totally confused and asked herself. 'Soooooo, I got the sports and hyped up thing from Gramps? Well, that makes sense. He is a fishermen, and he's a pretty strong old dude too.'

Lisa goes through her head on the whole thing. 'Hmm, which is what makes sense for Lincoln and Jordan. Lynn Sr, or father is not the best man to be a brave person, or even strong person, and Lincoln long before he met Jordan was as weak as father was.'

'Rick showed up and was strong enough to stand up for father, and then Jordan came and helped change the life of Lincoln and the rest of us. It almost looks like Rosato's are destined by fate to meet the louds, and aid us from the troubled times, and Jordan has proved to be the change for all of us.'

We go back to the now, and they all see Lynn Sr come out from the outhouse. "Hey gang, hope you all enjoy the food." He goes over and he sits down and enjoys his plate of food.

Lori then asks. "Dad, are you feeling alright?"

Lynn Sr then drinks some orange juice. "Heck yeah I am. I'm not still upset about knowing what happened that I never remembered about. I'm doing fine everyone, no need to worry."

All of them doubt that, and Rick Rosato can tell that something is gonna happen and even Leonard can see this as well. 'Lynn, don't do anything stupid. Please!'

(Later, at the Lake.)

Lori, Leni, Jackie and Mandee are chilling by the pier and they talk to each other about what they plan to do by the time they go back to town. But then they see some kids who have their canoes leaking. "Oh boy. We should help them!" said Mandee.

"I got this!" Lynn Sr races past them and in his speedo, and they cover their eyes. Rita notices this and spits out her drink.

'I thought I threw that thing away! How the heck does he have that thing? Also, what is he doing?'

Lynn Sr goes into the lake and he swims towards the kids who are trying to get to safety. "I got you kids!" But then he sees the kids putting on some life jackets. "Oh, never mind. You seem to have this covered. Alright, so which one of you can swim?"

Three out of five of them raise their hands. "Alright, so those who can't swim, get on my back and…" He sees one kid still raising his hand. "What's wrong?"

The boy then points to the water. "What the heck is that thing?" Lynnard turns around and is shocked, his speedo is in the water, and torn because it's too tight for his waist. He then realizes that he is not wearing anything.

Leni, Lori, Rita, Jackie, Mandee and then Michelle goes over and they see the floating torn speedo. Michelle then covers Lily's eyes. "That is so disturbing, and also no one swim in this lake until it's cleaned!"

Lynn Sr is red with embarrassment and can't move, and he slowly submerges and he stays hidden. "Oh boy, come on." Lori and Leni go into the water and they go over and help the kids get back to the pier, and they pass the other kids to Jackie and Mandee and they help them keep dry with some towels.

Rita looks to the lake, and sees her husband is nowhere to be found. "Lynn?! Lynnard?!" Lynn Sr is hiding in the lake, waiting for someone to bring him something to wear.

Leonard notices this as he's fishing and he's concerned. Then he has the net and Patriot and Bullet fly by and drop off some fish for him.

(Later, by the camping grounds.)

Lisa, Lola, Lana and Darcy are making some marshmallows and then they get ready to make some smores, but the fire is not on. "Should we use some matches?" asked Darcy.

Lisa then stops Darcy. "Negative, since we are camping I suggest we look for the right stones so we may be able to create one spark to make the fire, we may also need some paper to help start the…."

"Got it!" They see Lynn Sr go to them. "Let me help you kids." He uses two stones he found earlier, and he tries to hit them together so that the fire can start, they all wait for him to start the fire and the rest of the campers come around and then back up.

Lisa then looks to her watch. Lola sighs. "Dad, what are you doing?"

"Hang in there kids, I can start the fire and then we can get your smores on!" Lynn Sr keeps hitting the rock, and he tries to do so slowly, and then fast. "Well, something is wrong here. Might be the wood, let me get some wood that could…"

Lisa then stops him. "Father, first off the wood is dry and perfect for combustion for camping, also we need the right stones to make the spark and what you are holding are not rocks."

Lynn Sr is confused and he chuckles. "Lisa, Lisa. I think I know what kind of rocks these are. I found these in the woods and I know what kind of rocks these are…."

Lana then sniffs. "Dad, those aren't stones or rocks. That's defiled poop, bear poop and I have seen poop when it gets stuck in the heat for too long, and those stones are bear poop." They all back away two steps.

Lynn Sr then panics and he races off to clean his hands, the others watch him race off and Rita goes after him to see what was wrong. Darcy then asks. "So, matches?"

"Let me help guys." Ryan Rosato goes over and he helps start the fire, with the right stones for the job and he joins the little girls with marshmallows, and then Trent and Kat join them, and they make smores.

Leonard spots this and sighs. 'Lynnie. What the heck are you trying to do?'

(Later, at the Hiking Trail.)

Lincoln, Jordan, Simon, Luna, Sam, Luan, Lucy and Lynn Jr are now hiking up the trail, and leading them is Lynn Loud Sr, and he does so while looking around the pathway and then he sees the pathway splits in two. "Well, we should take the left."

Jordan isn't sure about this and she has the map. "Mr. Loud, we're not supposed to go left. The trail has been changed, the new trail is right."

Lynn Sr chuckles. "Maps, maps. Well, sorry to tell ya this. But I was a camper here and I know that the left trail is always the fun trail and I don't think this right side trail was her before."

"Because it's a new trail, that is not like the left side" said Simon. "My parents told me that the camp has been changed, year's after you were here, sir."

"Well, I know for sure that the real and safe and fun path is this one, so follow me." Lynn Sr goes on ahead, and the others did not like this.

"This is not gonna be an easy thing to do. But, we're gonna need to watch over him." Jordan turns on a barrier for the others and from her watch-weapon Queen. They then follow the loud patriarch. "Mr. Loud, we're not supposed to go down this path. We should go…"

"Jordan, I know what I am… Whoa!" Lynn Sr falls into a hole, and its 5 feet deep. "What the heck? When was this here?!"

"This is just the start, isn't it?" asked Sam. They go over and help him out.

(Moments later.)

The whole hike, was less than 5 minutes and the others at the camp see them come back, and they drag Lynn Sr using a stretcher they made out of wood, leaves and vines, and this makes Rita, Leonard and Rick go to them. "What the heck happened?!" asked Rita.

Lynn Sr has some bruises, scratches, bandages, a lot of rashes, his left shoe is missing and some bee stings. He then speaks. "Well, I was letting them see the best and fun way to hike up the…."

Luna speaks. "He fell into a hole, and we had to get him out. But he said that he had this covered, and then he grabbed onto a root, which is not a root and is actually a rat snake underground and it attacked him, at least it wasn't poisonous."

Sam continues. "He then got hit by some low tree branches as he was singing the camp song, and then he tried to move all the low heighted branches aside, and he accidently knocked away a young squirrel and then several other squirrels attacked him."

Lincoln speaks for them. "Then he tripped over a rock and then it turned out it was not a rock, it was snapping turtle headed for the lake, and it tried to attack him and Luna and Sam managed to get the turtle away and gave the little guy a piece of meat to eat. Can't say much about his lost shoe though."

Jordan continues next. "After that, he accidently went up the log, and it was very, very weak and it crumbled and he fell into a lot of poison ivy and we helped him out with our gloved hands. Then he backed up and said he was fine and he accidently ran into a bee hive."

Luan continues. "He ran around in panic and hid in a small pond, and the bees left. He came back out, and one bee stung him and it that pond was the watering hole of a bear, and the big guy got angry, but then Bernardo came and did a loud roar to scare off the bear."

"Huh, that explains the loud roar earlier" said Rick.

Simon then finishes it. "Lynn Sr was so badly hurt, and we made a stretcher out of whatever we could find and we escorted him back down the trail and he said he could lead us, but then Luna took charge and told him to shut up and stay quiet and Luna and Sam guided us back to camp."

Leonard sighs. "Kids, go and have some fun. We'll handle this." Rick escorts the kids back to the picnic benches, because that's where everyone is having lunch and they all begin to talk about what Lynn Sr has been doing all day.

Rita then looks to her husband sternly. "What on earth are you doing?"

Lynnard sits up. "I just… I wanna show them that I can be more like him." He then refers to Rick Rosato, who is showing some campers about proper knot making to keep the food away from bears. "Look at him, he still has his camping skills."

"I wanna show that I am not the same Lynnie from before and that I am a good camper who learned something, I mean sure I wasn't much of a good camper with other stuff, but I was good at baking and winning the talent show that one time."

Leonard sighs. "Lynnie, we need to talk. Step into my office." But then he realizes. "Wait, we need to tend to your injuries, and no way can you be part of the fun tomorrow either."

Lynn Sr then gets up. "There's no way I can be that hurt, I'm fine…" He gets up, but then he feels pain. "Oh, never mind. Everything hurts so much." He sits back down, and so Rita and Leonard escort him to the infirmary.

The others see this and the louds are now concerned. 'Dad, what the heck are you doing?'

To be continued…

A/N: Well, looks like Lynnard Loud is trying to show everyone he can do something, but it doesn't seem to be going so well. Let's hope he doesn't do anything else that would risk so much more. Leave a review and tell me what you all think.
