Chapter 2

The following day at Royal Woods Elementary Jordan enters the school with only one thing in her 'Lincoln' then she accidently bumps into someone "Oh sorry about-" she then sees who she ran into "It's good to see you too Rosato" Neil replies "What are you doing here?" Jordan asks in shock.

"Just talking to principal huggins about Lincoln's condition and getting more evidence that could help us in this case" Neil explains "You plan on visiting Lincoln later after school" Neil asks "Yeah and I intend to tell his friends about this as well" Jordan replies "Good idea, well I best be on my way, this whole town is riddling with Loud crime scenes" Neil then leaves.

Jordan proceeds to walk down the hallway and then sees Lincoln's friends "Hey guys" she greets them "Girl Jordan?" Clyde says in confusion "Where's Lincoln?" from Stella "That's what I wanted to talk to you guys about" Jordan was about to explain but then the bell goes off "maybe after class" Jordan tells them they all nod in agreement and head straight to first period, but to Clyde something was wrong.

As all the students take their seats Mrs. Johnson enters with a look of worry in her eyes "Mrs. Johnson you okay?" asked Zach, their teacher sighs "I just got back from a faculty discussion with principal huggins, This will be hard to explain, Lincoln Loud is currently in the hospital" making everyone gasp "What?!" Clyde yells in shock "it's true, after what happened at the beach yesterday with his family" they all turn to Girl Jordan "Jordan, do you know of what happened?" asked their teacher she takes a deep breath and tells them of what Lincoln has been through.

All the students were either shocked, horrified or full of guilt, Lincoln was forced to wear a squirrel suit because his family thinks it will give them good luck and all the students did was laugh and mock him "thank you for the explanation Jordan, you and your parents did the right thing" Said Mrs. Johnson "Now let's get back to… class" Mrs. Johnson felt like she couldn't go further after what happened to one of her brightest students "Maybe we should all just take a break for a while" she says as she just sits there looking down with worry.

"Girl Jordan can we visit Lincoln after school?" asked Rusty "Sure that's what I wanted to talk to you guys about, he needs his friends" Girl Jordan replies "I sure hope he's doing okay there, who knows what kind of boredom he'll fall into" Liam says as they look at him and agree, what they all don't know is that word of Lincoln situation was recorded by a student and spread throughout the school's social media.

After classes Lucy tried to talk to her friends at the young morticians club but instead gets kicked out "But why?" Lucy asks then Haiku steps out of the shadows "We maybe dark and brooding, but after what you did to Lincoln. You are no longer a member Lucy Loud, now leave before I muster everything in my power to banish you to the fiery pits of hell" Haiku threatens as Lucy runs off crying.

For Lola and Lana all their friends in class ignored them and secretly threw spitballs, Lisa has also been ignored by her classmates especially from her friend Darcy what's worse her teacher had removed all of her science stuff from the classroom.

For the Lori and Leni the news of their brother has spread like wildfire every last one of their friends have been giving them death glares and calling them name such as 'monsters' 'brother haters' 'she demons' making them feel uncomfortable they were even blocked form their friends numbers and on social media, Luan has also been going through the same situation being taunted by every student even her crush benny is ignoring her.

Soon after classes Lori has been officially kicked out of the golfing crew, as for Lynn she's got it the worse her friends have been against her from Paula, and Polly even her best friend Margo, eventually she was confronted by her coach and the principal, she was now banned from every sports team and is suspended for a whole month, some part of her thinks this was Lincoln's fault, but she tries to fight that belief because she knows that she brought it to herself, she started it but now she doesn't know how to end it.

Meanwhile outside of Royal Woods lies a small military/government make shift base with an eagle as well as FutureTech logos, within the command center Neil and Martin go through all the footage after looking through the photos that they shot from the family albums "This is a lot to take in" Martin says then they see some old family footage of Lincoln when he was a baby with his sisters "Where did those times go?" Neil says "I don't know what changed chief, guess they were bound to push him soon" Martin replies then they see footage that gave caught their eye "Interesting, I gotta go visit Lincoln" Neil says as he puts on his coat "Oh and go around town and check every surveillance footage there, especially from the supermarket!" Neil yells out as he drives off "Let's get to work boys" Martin says as he and his men board their cars.

Back at the high school class is over and all the students are headed home, all except Luna whose sitting by the benches with nothing more than pain, guilt and sadness, after yesterday's events she's barely had any sleep and has been ignored by her band mates to be specific kicked out of the band, then someone walks up to her and sits next to her by the benches.

"You really messed up big time huh Lunes?" she turns to see it was Sam, only she doesn't look angry or upset just sad "Shouldn't you be with the others?" Luna asks looking down again "They already left, I just wanted to know how you were doing" Sam asks "What does it look like, I feel like shit right now!" Luna replies with tears rolling down her face making Sam feel bad for her "I know you didn't mean for all this to happen to your brother, you two are very close siblings" Sam says "Were close siblings, he's probably angry at me right now!" Luna cries then Sam inches closer to her and uses her hands to cup Luna's cheeks so she can look at her "Listen, Lunes I'm not angry with you, but I am disappointed for what you did" Sam says "But there might still be another chance to earn his forgiveness, I know that he misses you and wants the sister he knows and loves back" hearing this Luna stops crying, Sam wipes away her tears "You know what you have to do" Luna looks to her and Sam kisses her cheek shocking her "Go to your little bro" Sam says as Luna hugs her "Thank you" Sam hugs her back and soon Luna runs off to the hospital 'Please don't give up on each other Lunes' Sam says in her thoughts.

While Luna is running she sends Lori a fake message saying that she's walking home 'the last thing I need is a whole flock of vultures on my tail' she says in her thoughts and tries to pick up the pace.

At the Loud House the parents return from their work after getting told off by their co-workers of their actions, as it turns out Neil was able to get this story to the newspaper which means everyone is against the louds, when they reach their house they see vanzilla which means their kids were home, they enter the house to see no one around but instead they hear talking from upstairs which means they also have been having hard times at school and are probably crying their eyes out, they needed to do something to fix this, but what.

Jordan's mom has volunteered to bring the kids to see Lincoln, meanwhile inside the room Lincoln just watches from the window thinking of all the treachery his family did to him, then his door opens "Lincoln!" his friends yell "Guys!" he replies as they crowd him "Dude, are you okay?!" "We're so sorry for not helping you!" "That looks painful!" "You look like you've gone been hit by a runaway wagon filled with corn stocks!" "Do you need aspirin?! How about some chicken soup? Are you getting enough oxygen? Please don't tell me you need surgery!" they all clamor in worry making Lincoln happy how worried they are "Guys, guys please don't crowd him!" Jordan says and they do as she says.

Zach approaches him "Here man!" Lincoln sees a new Ace Savvy Comic "What but how did?" Lincoln looks at them in disbelief "We thought about how you might need something so you won't get bored" Stella says "And luckily the comic book store owner gave it to us for free!" Rusty adds "What why?" Lincoln asks "Didn't you know you made the front page! Everyone in Royal Woods has heard of it" Liam says as Lincoln realizes how fast news spread "Guess Neil did everything in his power to make sure justice will be served" Jordan's mom says.

Then Clyde walks up to him "Hey Clyde" Lincoln greets and then sees the tears flowing form his best friend "Oh Lincoln I'm so sorry! I didn't do anything to stop all of this, I'm a terrible friend!" Clyde says looking down, Lincoln pits his hand on his shoulder making him look up "It's okay Clyde, you had nothing to do with the whole bad luck ordeal, you're my best friend buddy, be glad I'm still alive" Lincoln says reassuringly making Clyde cry even more and hug him he returns the hug as well "How long do you think till the damn drains?" Rusty whispers to Zach "Who knows" he replies.

Luna finally arrives at the hospital but doesn't notice the black Mercedes parked, as she goes through the hallway she runs into someone she recognizes "What do we have here" says Neil "Mr. Spellman?" Luna stutters "You shouldn't be here you know" Neil replies to her making her tense but she then gets her courage back "I need to see him! I need to see my brother! I need to see Lincoln" Luna says to Neil "Why? So you can torture him some more?! Is that what you want?!" Neil yells at her "NO!" Neil backs up a few steps from her outburst.

Then Luna breaks down to her knees and cries "I don't want to see him suffer from what happened, I tried to stop this! They wouldn't listen to me! They wouldn't let me approach him unless it was to take him somewhere! It pained me to see him suffer!" Luna cries "I failed him! I failed to be his big sister! I failed to be his guardian! I…. I failed!" Neil walks to her and goes to one knee removing his shades revealing his eyes with concern "Do you love your brother?" he asks as she looks up at him "With every fiber of my body! I'd give my life to take his place!" and that was all Neil needed to hear, he then stands up "Come on" she looks at him confused "Let's go see your brother!"

Lincoln enjoyed the company of his friends telling him of what's happening at school especially how worried everyone is and how guilty they were all feeling, hearing this made him shock that they all feel bad, then the doors open revealing Neil "Everyone outside with me now" he motions them to follow him making them confused and they do as he says, Lincoln looks at Neil in confusion "We'll be a moment" he then closes the door, as they all exit they stop and look in shock that someone else was there in the hallway, one of Lincoln's sister's Luna,

Her appearance there only made things worse as they started yelling at her "How could you do that to him!" "You heartless monster!" "I ought to feed you to the foxes!" "You're a horrible excuse of a sister!" "You witch!" as Luna looks down with guilt until Jordan walks up to her and looks at her face, she notices all the tear stains she has "What are you doing here?" she asked in a dark tone "I brought her here!" they turn to hear it from Neil "What!" they all yell "Why would you bring her here?!" Jordan says in anger but Neil just looks at Luna and opens the door "Go" he says as she enters Lincoln's room slowly she then sees her brother a bandaged mess on the bed, he looks and sees her, his expression changes to pure hatred "I'll leave you two be" Neil says as he closes the door quickly and then proceeds to explain to everyone or better yet let them hear the recording.

Meanwhile inside Luna just looks down while Lincoln blocks his face with the Ace Savvy comic 'Come on Lunes don't just stand there!' in her thoughts as she finally walks and stand at the end of his bed "Lincoln?" Luna asks nervously not getting any response she slowly walks towards him "I know you don't forgive u…. me for everything, you have every right to hate me right now, I just want you to know that I tried!" Luna says then looks down in defeat, hearing this Lincoln lowers the comic and looks at her in confusion "Tried? Tried?!" Lincoln raises his voice "Oh you tried that's great, that's real superb" he starts to say "What did you try Luna?" not getting a response as tears start to roll down her face as Lincoln starts to raise his voice "Did you try to convince the others that I wasn't really bad luck? Did you try to convince them to let me back in the house?! Did you try to convince them that I didn't need the suit anymore? DID YOU TRY TO TELL THEM HOW I WAS SUFFERING! THAT I WAS BEING TORMENTED BY EVERYTHING YOU ALL PUT ME THROUG?!" "YES!" as Luna cries shocking Lincoln "What?" Lincoln asks "I knew you weren't bad luck, I wanted you to back inside, I wanted to keep you safe and happy, all I did was get pushed away from you, I'm sorry Lincoln! I failed to be your sister! To be your guardian! I did nothing!" Luna begins to cry making Lincoln look at her with both confusion and concern 'Luna?' in his thoughts, Lincoln then places his hand on her shoulder making her look at him "Luna?" he said with tears forming, with instinct Luna lunges at him giving him a hug and he also hugs her in desperation and starts to let his tears flow "I'm sorry" she says to him making him hug her tighter "I was scared!" he says "I thought that you abandoned me!" Luna strokes his white hair "I would never leave you behind bro" as he closes his eyes remembering.

When Luna made his first concert memorable, when she helped him get into music, when they would sometimes jam together, when she was appointed to be his legal guardian, when she first held him after he was born and he recognized her voice when she sang to him while he was still inside his mother's womb and the words she said to him when they first met "Luna loves you, always" he opens his eyes realizing he was no longer angry at Luna his sister, his guardian, his friend "I love you Luna" Lincolns says to her "I love you too Lincoln, always!" as they both stay in that position.

Peering through the door they all see what has happened then Neil closes it some of them have tears in their eyes "That was touching" "So beautiful" "She really did try to help him" "She does care for Lincoln" while Clyde just balls his eyes out with the two bodyguards and Jordan's mom looks at her daughter "Jordan?" Jordan looks at her mom with tears flowing down "Oh sweetie" they hug in comfort while Neil wipes a few tears from his face "Their Bond is maybe have some cracks, but at least it's healing" He says as everyone else agrees.

Eventually Luna had to go back home "I'll come and visit okay little bro" she says wiping his tears "Okay Sis" they share one final hug then Luna places a kiss on his forehead, as she's about to leave Lincoln thinks "Wait!" Luna turns "Can you get Neil in here? And don't go yet?" Luna nods and gets Neil's attention "What's up kid?" Neil asks with Luna standing next to him "I was thinking about your plan, can I give a few suggestions?" Lincoln asks but wasn't surprising to Neil "Well you are the victim, and my client so it's pretty much your choice" Neil explains then Lincoln turns to Luna "Can you bring Leni and Lily here as well?" Lincoln asks "What?" Luna says in shock and Neil removes his shades "I'm sorry, what?" Lincoln looks down "I know that Lily's just a baby and has nothing to do with all of this, and Leni well we know how she is, she's innocent, she just got caught in the wrong crowd and she might need some help" Luna and Neil look at him in confusion but then understand what he means "Okay bro/kid" they then take their leave.

Jordan's mom brings everyone home, while Neil takes Luna back to the Loud House while at the same time Martin is headed there as well and then calls him, Neil puts him on speaker "McKenzie whats up?" Neil asks "I got all the evidence we need to convict them" Martin says making Neil smile and Luna confused he turns to her and sighs "There's just a few complications now, I'll tell you when we get there" Neil says "Over and out chief" martin says as both vehicles race to the loud house.

Lori looks out the window "Where is Luna? It's getting late!" she says "I hope nothing bad happened to her!" Leni says then they see multiple black vehicles and Police cars including the Mercedes, but what shocked her was that Luna was exiting it along with Neil, Lori then calls everyone else to head downstairs, the doorbell rings and they open to see Neil with Luna and Martin "Hi!" Neil then takes Lily and passes her Luna who then backs away from them "Wait what?! Lily!" but is blocked by Neil "Hands behind your head now!" Neil says "What but-"then Neil pulls out a gun "Now!" he yells as they do what he says cops approach and cuff the parents then take them to their squad cars the kids start asking and yelling "What are you doing?" "Give us back mommy and daddy?!" "Please let them go!" but then see Luna looking at them in anger "Leni come on" she tells her making confused "Leni!" and she walks over and they both sit in the back of Neil's car "She's gonna need her diaper bag" Neil says "I'll get it" Martin races upstairs grabs the bag and puts it in the trunk then Lynn walks up to Spellman "This was all my fault! Please just take me not them! I deserve to be put in jail!" Lynn says in defeat "Okay then" Neil says motioning cops to cuff her as well and put her in another squad car "The rest of you follow" Neil says as three guys in suits motion them to get in the black vehicles and soon they drive straight to police headquarters.

They finally arrive at the Royal Woods Police Department, they send Rita and Lynn Sr. into an interrogation room, the loud sisters in a holding cell, but are shocked to see Luna and Leni with Lily being escorted and put in the waiting area "What's going on?" Lori asks in confusion "Why aren't they with us?" from Luan "something must've transpired" Lisa says as they all look at each other in worry.

With Luna and Leni "What's going on? Why aren't we with the others?" Leni asks and then Luna tells her of her visit to the hospital and what Lincoln said to her, what they don't know is that the other sisters were listening in, after the explanation Leni understands fully "so Lincoln still cares about me" Leni looks down In sadness as Luna nods "I guess he is right, I'm not the brightest sister around, maybe I do need help" Luna hugs Leni while Lily joins in, the other sisters getting more worried at what might happen.

Meanwhile the interrogation with the loud parents Neil tells them of what Lincoln's been through and all the things he tried to fix especially the cowardice of the parents, with each sentence Neil speaks send the two parents to realize what they were doing was illegal, outside police escort an elderly man which gets the attention of the kids "Pop-pop!" they call out but he only goes to hug Leni and Luna "That man over there told me everything" Pop-pop points out to martin who waves "I'm so happy that Lincoln doesn't hate you three, now if you'll excuse me, it's time to be a father again" he says as he heads to the interrogation room passing by the holding cells not even looking at his other granddaughters making them scared.

The grandfather finally enters "May I speak to my daughter and son-in-law please?" he asks Neil with a dark tone making Neil smile "All yours albert" he says as he leaves Pop-pop sits down looking at them "Dad please we didn-" he slams his fist to the table scaring them "How could you do that to your own son?" he yells at them "Me and your mother raised you better Rita, she would be very disappointed in you right now!" making Rita look down in guilt "And you! You're supposed to be the man of the house! Instead you do nothing but leave Lincoln to deal with everything! Put your foot down man and show some discipline to your daughters not hide away and cry on Halloween!" making Lynn Sr. cower in fear, on the other side Neil, Martin and some of the cops look in shock "That is one bad ass old man" Neil says "I don't know if I should be scared or impressed!" martin says as the other cops agree, then they rush inside to stop it after seeing the old man punch Lynn Sr. in the face.

After the whole interrogation Pop-pop arrives with an officer and they open the holding cell "Alright everyone I'm taking you all home" he says making them confused "Now!" as they get out of the cell and outside the station "Luna, Leni you and Lily will be riding with Neil" Pop-pop says as Neil appears with the parents and puts brings them to a police van passing by their kids "It's gonna be alright kids" Rita says as she's loaded inside with Lynn Sr. then they notice Leni looking at them in disappointment and Luna glaring at them "I hope they never let you out" they all turn to hear what she just said "Luna!" Lori yells at her but she ignores her and gets into Neil's car with Leni and Lily "Alright kids inside now" pop-pop says as they board the black suburban and drive to the loud house with Neil following behind.

As they arrive at the loud house they see two officers taking away Lisa's inventions and hear multiple banging and wood ripping sounds inside the house, they then see a six foot two tall man also in his early thirties wearing a black suit as well he has long dark hair that reaches his shoulders a beard and mustache combo and is holding a tablet like device that is scanning the house "Unknown metallic object inside dining room wall below your feet, be careful" he says then they heard what sounded like a sledge hammer being used "Victor " Neil says "Spellman, just in time we've confiscated all of the chemicals within the house and we're still tracking down more than forty three inventions inside the houses interior" Victor explains and shows him the tablet "Good, very good" Neil replies then Lisa speaks "You can't do this!" as the two grownups turn to her "I'm sorry are you the boss of me? Because your still pretty much a suspect in your brothers torment" Neil says making Lisa feel depressed again then they see two men in hazmat suits carrying a strange machine "What the hell is that?" Neil asks "I'm detecting radiation within it" Victor replies "Take it back to base and have Martin have a look at it and be careful" Neil says as the machine along with everything else is sent back to the Forward Base.

The Louds enter the house and see multiple holes in the walls and they all turn to Lisa "What the heck Lisa?" Lori yells "Were those things in the house the whole time?" Luan adds as Lisa looks away in fear "Alright that's enough all of you to bed now!" their grandfather says then Luna whispers something to Leni and they both agree and take Lily with them and tell pop-pop who also agrees and head to the attic, after changing into their sleep wear Luna and Leni leave their rooms, Leni gets Lily and head for Lincoln's room while Luna heads to the attic to help her grandfather find the extra mattresses and the three siblings sleep in their brothers empty room, making the other sisters worry at what's happening to their family.

The following day word of the loud parents being sent away has already spread saying that they will be awaiting trial once Lincoln is all healed up, at school though the younger loud sisters had endure another day of torture, same goes for the middle school and high school but the only ones not getting pushed around or teased was Luna and Leni who were glad that their friends trust them again, it seems what Lincoln had said was spread through social media that he forgives three of his sisters and understands that they did care about him, soon after school Luna and Leni plan to visit Lincoln then they see a purple station wagon pull up revealing Girl Jordan "Need a lift?" she asks as they board the vehicle, once inside they see Jordan holding Lily "What's Lily doing here?" asked Luna your grandpa decided to let her go see her brother as well, you grandpa will pick up your other sisters and watch over them" Jordan's mom says making the two older sisters smile and they drive off to the hospital.

At the Hospital Leni was thrilled to see her brother again "Oh Lincoln, I'm so sorry for what I did!" she apologizes while hugging him "it's okay Leni, I know you didn't mean it" Lincoln returns the hug, then Lily crawls up to him "Wincon!" she laughs as Lincoln hugs her "I missed you too Lily" and soon Luna and Leni join in "We're so sorry Linky" We'll make sure nothing bad happens again Lil' bro" "Poo-poo" making Lincoln cry knowing he still has some family that cares about him, soon after the hug "So Lynn Sr. and Rita are in jail until court?" Lincoln asks still shocking that he's just saying their names "Pretty much bro" Luna says "Good, that's what they deserve for letting happen" Lincoln looks down in anger then Jordan holds his hand to assure him, they both look at each other for a moment, then Luna coughs "Lincoln?" making the two kids turn red and let go, seeing this making Leni, Luna and Jesse smile knowing that what was happening was too cute.

Then Neil comes in "Hey there Lincoln, you doing alright?" he asks "The fact that it gets lonely in here, the food tastes awful and there's absolutely nothing good on their TV, I'm doing pretty fine" Lincoln replies "Good to hear because I want to talk to you about your plan against the rest of your family when court comes up" Neil explains "I've already written it down" he shows him the envelope "But I'll only reveal it when the court begins" they all nod in agreement knowing of what may happen when justice comes.

Meanwhile news of the whole ordeal is spreading throughout the nation and eventually arrives at great lake city, Carlotta is scrolling through her phone until something catches her attention a news article from royal woods she starts reading and then gasps "Dios Mio!" she then races out of the apartment passing by her family " Carlota where are you going? I made flan!" Rosa calls to her, she ignores her calls and enters the Mercado "Bobby! Ronnie Anne!" the two Santiago's look at her in confusion "Yeah?" she then shows them "You have to see this" as they start reading the news article their faces turn to complete shock "Lincoln?" they say in unison "But what? Lori?" Bobby says "Guess she wasn't the Sweet Beautiful angel you thought huh?" Carlota says to her cousin "We have to get to Royal Woods!" says Ronnie Anne they all agree and close the Mercado, return to the apartment and tell everyone else who gasps in shock and they all get in the Mercado van and race to Royal Woods with one thing on their minds "We're coming Lincoln!".
