Hello everyone! Here's chapter six (finally) in which we will see how Lynn Jr. handles her mistake, as well as the trip that is set to take place on this coming day. I hope you all enjoy!

Lynn Jr. laid on her bed with her eyes wide open not knowing how she could possibly apologize to her recently admitted brother for what she did. She had begun developing a crush on him since his arrival to the Loud residence. He was really attractive to her, especially with that unique white hair of his and his cute smile. The athlete hadn't been able to manage her emotions well, and her tough nature made it difficult for her to easily express sensitive feelings such as love, sadness, and fear. But she realized that she could have and should've made the extra effort to prevent her toughness from surfacing onto Lincoln.

"Man, I really got to work on controlling my nerves," Lynn thought to herself. "I should've kept my cool when Lincoln offered to watch the baseball game with me. But I couldn't help it! I didn't know what to do with that cutie right in front of me, darn it, I'm bringing that up again! Just calm down Lynn, calm down…"

Lynn tried calming herself down by doing some deep breathing exercises and later bouncing a tennis ball off the wall of her room. This thankfully did help her come back to her senses.

"Phew, glad that helped," the jock sighed in relief. "But what am I going to do? I can't just leave things the way they are! I've got to make it up to Linc somehow."

Just then, Lynn heard a door creak open and some footsteps mobilize out in the hallway. She decided to crack open her door a bit to see who it was. She was stunned to see that it was none other than her white-haired brother walking down the hallway to use the bathroom. "Hmm…" she pondered to herself, "There he is, maybe now's the chance I can apologize to him for what I did. But how can I lay this out to him?" The athlete deep down wanted to apologize to Lincoln for having punched him, but at the same time she didn't want to spill the beans and potentially create distance between herself and Lincoln. She had to think of something, and quickly, as Lincoln would soon return to his room.

"Come on LJ, think, think, think! You've got a relationship, uh, I mean, siblingship to save here!" Lynn panicked. Just then, the bathroom door opened. She peeped out her head a bit into the hallway to notice that rather than head back to his room, Lincoln went downstairs into the kitchen.

"Excellent!" Lynn said happily. "Here's my chance!" And without a skip of a heartbeat, Lynn quietly rushed downstairs and into the kitchen, where she saw Lincoln grabbing a glass of water.

Lincoln caught glimpse of her and turned to face her. "Hey Lynn! You still up this late?"

"Yeah, I'm just having some trouble going to sleep," Lynn replied with a hint of sadness in her voice. Lincoln caught the distress in her tone and immediately felt concerned for her.

"I see. Are you feeling alright?"

"Yeah, I just wanted to get a glass of milk to see if that will help me fall asleep."

"That's a great idea, but I'm not sure if that's really what's bothering you. You sound, sort of upset about something bigger."

Lynn sighed, "No, everything's okay, really, I'm just tired—" She was interrupted by a look of disbelief from Lincoln who now stood close to his athlete sister.

Placing a hand on her left shoulder, Lincoln said, "Lynn, if anything is making you feel sad, just tell me. I'm your brother. I know we just barely met but believe me, you're part of my new family, the family I've always wanted to have. I care about you sis and if there's anything I can do to help you feel better, you can count on me. Don't be afraid to tell me what's on your mind, I'm all open-ears just for you."

Feeling a bit relieved, Lynn decided that it was time to make her move. "Alright Lincoln, I'll be honest. I am feeling upset, and it's because of what I did to you yesterday. You came to me wanting to watch a baseball game with me, and all I did was punch you in the face and run off. I didn't mean to hurt you Lincoln, I was just feeling a bit, well, um, shy."

Hearing this puzzled Lincoln a bit. "Wait, is that why you punched me in the face? Because you were shy being next to me?"

"Yes Linc," Lynn said, tears welling up in her eyes. "You see, as an athlete I tend to act tough when I'm around others. I believe that all athletes should be tough, strong, and never let their emotions loose. It's a sign of weakness for an athlete to show sensitivity. That's why I punched you. I didn't want you to think of me as a sensitive girl, I didn't want you to think that I wasn't tough. I didn't want you to think of me as," and Lynn had a hard time pronouncing this out, "a loser." Lynn then sobbed silently. She could no longer hold back.

Lincoln, feeling sorry, closed in on Lynn and brought her into a tight hug.

"Oh Lynn, I'm so sorry. I didn't know you felt this way," Lincoln consoled, brushing his fingers through Lynn's hair.

"No Lincoln, I'm sorry," Lynn said. "I'm sorry for having punched you and for not confessing to you the truth."

"Lynn, it's okay, don't worry about it. I actually forgave you for that after you ran up to your room. I thought you just wanted to play tough on me. You are an athlete after all and so I realized that that must've been the reason why you punched me. But I understand now what really happened. Don't worry, okay? Everything's going to be just fine."

"You sure?" Lynn said, sniffling. "You're not mad at me?"

"No way Lynn! I would never be mad at you, especially after knowing the truth. I appreciate that you were honest. It means a whole lot to me."

Lynn Jr. wiped off the tears on her face and with a smile wrapped her arms around Lincoln and hugged him tightly.

"Aww, thanks Linc," she said, giving Lincoln a soft kiss on his left cheek. Lincoln immediately blushed a bit, not expecting Lynn to offer him this act of love. Knowing now that Lynn did truly love him, he returned the kiss onto her left cheek.

"You're very welcome Lynn. I hope that now that you got this off your chest you can get some good night's rest."

"It does feel good to have opened up and let out my worries. I feel much better now."

"Awesome! Now let's get back to our rooms before someone else finds out we're down here," Lincoln said with a smile.

"Great idea, good night Linc!"

"Good night Lynn!" The two exchanged another quick hug before finally heading on back to bed.

"Ahhh, it sure feels good to have made things right," Lynn said to herself before sleep finally overtook her.


In the meantime, Luna had awoken from what she considered to be a terrible nightmare. She had dreamed about having a typical normal weekday, only that Lincoln was in every scene of her dream. In the dream, Luna saw herself at school sitting in her AP Algebra II class, trying to understand what her instructor was saying. As she listened to the teacher's lecture, she spotted Lincoln all of a sudden sitting beside her, with hearts in his eyes, blowing kisses at her. Luna panicked at this sight and decided to ask her instructor for permission to go to the nurse on the pretext that she was feeling ill. The instructor approved and Luna made her way to the nurse's office. But as she walked along the school hallway, she noticed Lincoln was going after her, as if trying to trap her. Luna began to run, but as she picked up her pace, Lincoln only sped after her. Just as Luna was going to grab the door handle of the nurse's office, she felt herself get dragged onto the ground, only to face a Lincoln gone wild. Luna tried getting off the floor, but felt her muscles weaken until she could no longer fight against Lincoln's hold. Seeing that Luna had been frozen still, Lincoln began to mush her all over her face, causing Luna to scream out of her dream.

Now Luna sat on her bed, not understanding what she had just seen. She was relieved to find out that she had only been dreaming, but the way everything had played out had made her feel as if she had been living reality in an alternate world. She glanced over to her roommate Luan, who slept underneath her mattress, thinking that perhaps her scream had woken her up, but surprisingly, she still remained in a profound sleep.

Luna then softly spoke to herself, "Could it be a vision? A vision that Lincoln loves me? I mean, I do love Lincoln, I love him as the brother I've always wanted, but I think I love him more than just that. Could it be—nah, it's just a dream. I'm sure Lincoln only sees me as a sister. I've just gotta make sure no one finds out about this." And it was then that Luna realized that she was in fact in love with her eleven-year-old brother. Sure, she had recently gotten to meet him and she hadn't yet established a strong bond with him yet, but he was just so adorable to her. She couldn't help but daydream of her and Lincoln sharing a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, perhaps even one day getting married and forming a family—

"No. Bad Luna, bad!" the rocker scolded herself. "Lincoln is your little bro; you can't let your feelings guide your actions. If you want a chance at bonding with him, don't let the cat out of the bag."

Luna then heard Luan yawn and glanced down to see her now awake. "Luna? What's all this yelling about? Who are you talking to?" Luna gasped. She had to come up with a cover, and quickly.

"Lunes, everything okay? What's all that about not letting the cat out of the bag?"

"Uh, everything's okay! I was just reciting some lines of the play I'm performing for school. I just want to make sure I've got all my stuff ready to go for rehearsal on Monday."

"Oh, okay," Luan shrugged. "But try to keep it down please, I'm trying to get some good sleep."

"Sure thing, sorry sis!" Luna whispered. Luan nodded and slid back under her covers to rest some more.

"Phew, that was close!" Luna said. She decided to stop thinking about her nightmare and go back to sleep. Hopefully she wouldn't have another dream with Lincoln in it.


It was now Saturday 9 AM at the Loud house. Every member of the Loud family was starting to awake from their siesta. Lynn Sr. had gotten up a half hour early to prepare breakfast for his eleven children. After all, with a family so large, it took quite some time (and energy) to prepare excellent meals. But at least for him, he was quite the chef and he knew the tastes of his children quite well, sans Lincoln who was new to the family. But soon, Lynn Sr. would narrow down his tastes too.

"Kids! Breakfast is ready in the kitchen! Come on down whenever you're ready!" the patriarch shouted upon placing the kids' prepared meals at the dining table. Just then, all of the Loud children stampeded down into the dining hall to indulge on their freshly prepared meals.

Well, all except for one. Luna Loud. The rocker herself was having trouble going downstairs to eat her breakfast. She still hadn't been able to get over her feud about Lincoln. Sure, she hadn't done anything nasty to him like Lynn Jr. did, but she was still fearful about losing her opportunity to bond with Lincoln. It would be very difficult for her to break free from this constraint, given that she couldn't stare at Lincoln without going crazy. She was about to forfeit breakfast when she heard someone summoning her.

"Luna!" Rita Loud called from the dining table. "Aren't you coming down for breakfast?"

"Coming Mom, just a sec!" Luna then took a couple of deep breaths, telling herself, "Just don't focus on him too much. Act natural. Just eat your breakfast and head on to your room and it'll be all good."

"Luna! Your food is getting cold!" Rita called out again.

"Coming!" Luna replied. She then raced down the stairs and joined the rest of the Louds at the dining table.

"So," Lynn Sr. talked loudly, getting everyone's attention. "Today me and your mother have planned a nice trip for you all. We think it will be a nice opportunity for you and your new brother to get to bond more."

"Yes, indeed," Rita said. "We will be taking you all to Dairyland today." All the kids, except for Lincoln, cheered with excitement.

"Umm, what's Dairyland?" Lincoln asked, puzzled.

"Only the best amusement park in existence!" Lana bursted out. "It has these cool rides like a Ferris wheel, a dragon boat that sways you pretty high up, and best of all, there's this ride called the Milk Shaker which is a rollercoaster that will bounce you around and there are these cows that pop out along the ride that squirt milk all over your body. And best of all, this ride has this crazy, twisted loop that will make you barf as you enter the loop and at the end of it, the barf falls into your mouth! Mmm, good stuff if you ask me."

"Sounds fun!" Lincoln said, although a bit disgusted about the part with the barf.

"And if you're into games," Lori spoke up, "there's also an arcade with lots of different machines. You can play them to earn tickets and win prizes!"

"Oh, that's totally awesome! Can we go now Mom and Dad, please, please, please?!" Lincoln said, now as excited as his sisters.

"Hang in there little guy," Rita said. "We still need to change into our daytime clothes. And we also have to take care of some little stuff."

"Yeah," Lynn Sr. chimed in. "We need to go to the post office to mail our bill payments and we need to pick up our dry cleaning. But I promise you, it's only a few things that won't take long. After that, it'll be hours of fun for you and your sisters."

"Alrighty," Lincoln said, calming down. "I promise I'll be patient."

"Great!" Lynn Sr. said, turning towards the rest of the Louds. "How'd everyone enjoy their meal?"

"It was great!" everyone but Luna said. Luna was still busy with her meal, having trouble chewing because she had these mixed thoughts about how to act around Lincoln. These thoughts were preventing her from feeling her usually happy and rockin' mood. This didn't go unnoticed by the patriarch, however.

"Luna? Are you enjoying your meal?"

"Eh, yeah, it's okay," she replied dismissively.

"Honey, is something the matter? You don't sound like your typical energetic self," Rita inquired, getting a bit concerned.

"Nah, I just had some trouble sleeping last night, that's all," Luna said.

"Oh, I get it. I know how that feels. How about some coffee to get some energy flowing in your system?" Rita offered.

"Sure, I'd appreciate a cup of coffee, thanks Mom."

"Coming right up!" she said to Luna. To the rest of her children she said, "Alright kids, go on upstairs and get yourselves fixed up. We'll be leaving very shortly." The ten Louds then raced back to their rooms to get ready for the exciting day to come. In the meantime, Luna remained seated at the dining table, finishing up the leftovers of her meal. She felt a bit relaxed, now that Lincoln had left her field of view. "At least little bro doesn't seem to be uncomfortable around me. In fact, I don't think he's aware about me feeling weird around him."

But she was wrong. Lincoln was aware of Luna's strange behavior. He just decided not to ask her about it at the moment because he wanted to give her some space. However, he promised himself that if he kept seeing Luna acting odd that he would check up on her just to make sure she felt alright.


The Loud family was now within the crowds that toured the popular theme park in Royal Woods: Dairyland. As part of the Louds, Lincoln took the pleasure of spending some quality time at his first visit to an amusement park. And he would get to spend this time with the family he loved dearly.

"Well kids, here are your day passes," Lynn Sr. said, handing the passes to his nine oldest children. "Don't lose them or else you won't be able to access any of the rides!" The nine oldest Louds grabbed their passes and took off.

"And for you, Lisa and Lily, since you're too young to go on any of the big rides, these passes will get you onto the small rides like that train over there, or into the arcade if you want to play some games," Rita said.

"Fair enough," Lisa said. "It's good to know that you and Dairyland are looking out for our safety and well-being. I could use a good round at the arcades either way. I'll take Lily with me if you don't mind. I'll make sure she's safe and sound."

"Poo poo!" Lily said, letting out a giggle.

"Great! Have fun!" Rita said, waving to her two youngest daughters. To her husband, she said, "Lynn, how about we go play Whack-a-mole? I bet you'll never beat me!"

"Oh, it's on!" Lynn Sr. replied competitively.

Meanwhile, Lincoln decided to join Lana, Lynn Jr., and Luan on the Milk Shaker. He was quite excited about experimenting the ride, given the way Lana had described it. Of course, the barf part still caused him discomfort so he pledged to keep his mouth shut as much as possible to avoid having to taste some quite nasty material.

"You ready to taste some barf Linc?" Lana asked her brother, excitedly.

"You bet!" Lincoln replied, "I can't wait to taste that milk too!"

"Let's get some action!" Lynn Jr. exclaimed.

"Let's get those COWards milking! Hahaha, get it?" Luan said jokingly. Just then, the rollercoaster operator spoke onto the speakers giving riders the typical safety instructions (e.g. keep your hands inside the vehicle, don't loosen your safety belt, etc.). Afterwards, he activated the ride yelling out, "Have a MILKtastic ride folks!"

Everyone cheered on as the chain attached underneath the coaster began pulling the wagons up the steep incline.

"Here goes!" yelled out Lincoln, bracing himself for what was to come.

"You said it Linc!" Lana said. "Hang on tight!"

The coaster finally reached the top of the 400-foot-tall incline. Lincoln braced himself for the speedway, with Lana prepping him, saying, "Get ready to milkshake, don't give out on us!" Lincoln patted Lana's baseball cap before being pulled down in a quick motion. Soon, Lincoln found himself screaming along with his fellow riders as they were all swooshed around turns, ups and downs, and whatever else the ride had to give them.

"Here comes the dairy!" Lana warned. Lincoln then heard a loud "MOO!" before the cows sprung up and began spraying him with milk.

"Mmm, tastes very good!" Lincoln said, trying out the milk.

"Sure does, it's 2% reduced fat. And watch out for the last cow, it's brown and spills out you know what," Lana said smiling.

Lincoln understood what Lana meant, and sure enough the last cow sprayed chocolate milk, much to Lana and Lincoln's satisfaction.

"Now that's what I call quality milk!" Lincoln exclaimed. The coaster then took a sharp left, leading the riders towards the famous barf loop.

"Here it comes Linc, the best part!" Lana said, savoring the barf in her mouth.

"Better make sure I don't open up my mouth," Lincoln said to himself a bit fearfully. After a few more small mountains, the coaster made its way onto the barf loop, and sure enough, it was so large and terrifying that it caused the riders to vomit, including Lincoln. Because everyone was still screaming due to the magnitude of the loop, the vomit spilled out of their mouths as Lana had mentioned. Unfortunately, Lincoln had to let out a scream, causing the barf in his mouth to exit.

"I just got to keep my mouth shut for now," Lincoln said. However, as the coaster exited the loop, Lynn Jr. caught sight of Lincoln's closed mouth and decided to pinch him.

"AAAAHHHH!" Lincoln yelped, only to open his mouth to his barf raining into it.

"Yee-haw! That's some good stuff!" Lana cheered as she tasted her vomit.

"Bleh! Yucky, yuck! Lynn!" Lincoln exclaimed disgusted while hearing his athletic sister laugh wildly. Still, however, he wasn't too distraught by the barf loop and managed to retain his fun state.

Shortly after, the ride approached the loading dock and Lincoln and the other riders were let off the ride. But before Lincoln could step fully out of the loading dock, he was stopped by one of the helpers.

"Here you go young man, enjoy this milktastic milkshaker," the helper said to him, offering him a strawberry milkshake.

"Wow, thanks!" Lincoln said to the helper. And to himself, "Now to wash off that nasty vomit in my mouth."

"So, what'd you think Linc, fun or not fun?" Lana asked her brother.

"Totally fun Lana. Thank you so much for bringing me onto this ride!" Lincoln said, giving Lana a hug.

"No problem Linc, I'm glad you loved it!" she replied, returning the embrace.

"How about let's hit the arcades?" Lynn Jr. offered.

"Sure thing! Just let me take a quick trip to the restroom, my bladder's really full," Lincoln said, straining a bit.

"Oh, alright, go ahead and relieve yourself, we'll wait for you right next to the balloon pop stand," Lynn Jr. replied.

"Yeah, we wouldn't want you to, you know," Lana added.

"Yeah, I got that. Be right back," Lincoln said, racing towards the restroom. It took Lincoln three minutes to do his necessities before he began walking back out to the park. Just then, two male teenagers approached Lincoln. One of them wore a red T-shirt with the Dairyland logo on it, with brown shorts, and the other boy bore a plain neon blue shirt with black jeans. Lana, Lynn Jr., and Luan took note of these two teens, curious to hear what they wanted to tell Lincoln.

"Hey kid," the boy with the red Dairyland T-shirt spoke up.

"Yes, how can I help you?" Lincoln inquired.

"We were just looking for this ice cream parlor and were wondering if you know where it is," the boy said, handing a Dairyland map to Lincoln.

"Oh, let me take a look," Lincoln said, studying the map. "Ah, yes, it appears that the ice cream place you're looking for is down that way," he spoke, pointing towards an isolated portion of the amusement park.

Lana, Lynn, and Luan were watching the three boys converse, being close enough to overhear some of the conversation. It was then that Luan and Lynn began feeling suspicious about the two teens. Lana, however, being pretty young in age, didn't quite know how to distinguish between a passive person asking a simple question versus a suspicious person looking to cause trouble. Thus, she only stared at the teens, without concern.

"Hmm, I don't trust these teens, I think they're up to something," remarked Lynn.

"Yeah," Luan replied. "The teens apparently are looking for a parlor that's in a lonely area," the comedian pointed out.

"You're right! Let's keep listening to see what else the teens have to say," Lynn said. Lynn and Luan then ceased talking to focus their ears on the conversation.

"Ah, so it's over there you say?" the boy in the blue T-shirt asked.

"Yeah, looking at the map, it must be in that direction," Lincoln said assuringly.

"Hmm, how about you take us there," the boy in the blue T-shirt said. "And we'll buy you an ice cream of any flavor you want."

"Alright, sure! Follow me," Lincoln said, leading the way towards the alleged ice cream parlor.

"Hmm, something smells like booby trap to me," Lynn Jr. spoke up. "Can't the teens just walk over to the parlor themselves? It's so easy to get there!"

"You're right Lynn," Luan replied. "I think our brother may be unknowingly walking himself into trouble. Let's follow them to see if this ice cream parlor is real or not."

"Good idea Luan, but let's follow them with caution. We don't want them to see us," the athlete suggested. "Follow my lead."

"Lana, follow us, we've got to figure out what those boys are up to," Luan then said.

"Well, duh, they're just going for some ice cream. Nothing wrong with that," Lana said.

"Um Lana, I don't think you understand strangers the way we do. We'll talk about that later though, right now, we just need to make sure our brother's safe," Luan responded.

"Okay, roger that," Lana said following her other two sisters.

Lincoln and the boys walked for a short distance before making it to the alleged ice cream parlor.

"Here we are guys, here's the parlor...wait, what?" Lincoln suddenly examined the booth that stood before him, realizing that it was completely empty! Yes, a sign hung overhead indicating that the booth was used for an ice cream stand, but it looked as if the booth had been abandoned for quite some time. The booth emitted a foul stench of dead animal bodies.

"I guess they closed shop for the time being," Lincoln said. "So sorry about that guys, but if you want, I can take you guys to an ice cream stand that's open," he offered.

"No," the boy in the red T-shirt said. "Right here is fine."

"Okay, well, I guess I shall be going then," Lincoln said, turning around to walk back to the main area of the amusement park. But he was stopped by two hands that grabbed a hold on Lincoln's shoulders.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, not so fast there young man," the guy in the blue T-shirt said. "You're not going anywhere." Meanwhile, Lana, Lynn, and Luan watched the scene unfold from behind another nearby abandoned booth.

"What? What do you mean?" the white-haired boy inquired, confused. "I can't stick around; I have some company waiting for me at the arcade."

"Well I guess they'll just have to go on without you," the boy in the blue T-shirt said. "Because you and us, we're going to have some fun in that ice cream booth.

"What? Nooooo!" Lincoln screamed, realizing now that the teens had set him up on a trap. He tried breaking free from the hold of the boy in the blue T-shirt, but his grasp was too firm.

"Come here!" the boy in the blue T-shirt yelled commandingly. The boy in the red T-shirt had opened the door leading into the stinky booth while a desperate Lincoln cried for help.

"Help! Help, somebody help!" Lincoln yelled, now tearing up.

"Shut the hell up!" the two boys yelled.

"Help! Somebody, please—"

The boy in the blue T-shirt dragged Lincoln into the booth and forced him onto the nasty floor, which was in fact filled with a few dead animals and had blood spilled all over. He held Lincoln pressed firmly onto the floor while his buddy pulled out a piece of cloth, placed it on Lincoln's mouth, and tied it around the back of his head. Lincoln continued to yell, but to no avail as his cries for help were now muffled. Then, the same teen grabbed a nearby rope and used it to tie both Lincoln's hands and legs so he couldn't escape.

"There, there, now," the boy in the blue T-shirt said. "Now let's have some fun shall we?" He then proceeded to strike a blow on Lincoln's stomach and kicked his left side powerfully. Lincoln only twisted around in pain, unable to defend himself.

"See, isn't that fun?" the boy in the red T-shirt said. "Now it's my turn!" he said, delivering a strong kick on Lincoln's right rib cage, and two blows onto his chest.

"Hahahahaha!" the two teens laughed maniacally. "And this is only the start, we've got plenty more to come, and with the rest of the day free for us, this party ain't going to end anytime soon!" the boy in the blue T-shirt said, smiling evilly. To his companion, he said, "Robert, pass me that metal pipe please."

"With pleasure Dennis," the boy in the red T-shirt said.

"Oh no, this is it. I never thought a simple offering of help could result in my fate," Lincoln sobbed. "Well, I guess this is what I was meant to be, just a dead body in an abandoned booth in Dairyland." The white-haired boy then braced himself for the time of his life.

Meanwhile, the three Loud girls had seen the entire commotion from their hiding spot.

"You were right Luan!" Lana gasped in horror. "Lincoln is in trouble! I'm so sorry for not understanding you earlier," she spoke, worried that she could lose her only brother.

"It's okay Lana, you're too young to understand this stuff. Like I said, I'll explain it to you later, but now, what do we do?" Luan asked, panicking. The three Loud girls then glanced at the ice cream booth only to see Robert hand the metal pipe to Dennis so he could "party" with Lincoln.

"Guys! They're gonna kill him!" Luan shrieked in terror. "Nooooo!"

"Leave it all to me," Lynn said. "You two stay here, I know exactly how to save our little brother." And without hesitation, she sprung out and raced towards the abandoned ice cream booth.

"Lynn! No!" Lana and Luan both yelled, but Lynn refused to let them stop her from saving the life of her one and only brother.

"I hope she'll be ok," Lana wept.

"I hope so too," Luan said, enveloping Lana into a warm hug.

"Alright Dennis, you go first," Robert offered.

"Certainly," he replied, preparing himself to deliver the first blow with the pipe.

"Well, here goes," Lincoln said, shutting his eyes and squirming tightly to try to dissipate the force of the blows to come—

WHAM! CRASH!

Dennis and Robert suddenly found themselves dizzy and in extreme pain in a corner of the booth. Upon regaining consciousness, they noticed a young girl with thick brown hair in a ponytail, with a red jersey sporting a number 1 standing before them, a metal pipe in hand.

"What, wait, what the heck just happened?!" the two teens asked in unison.

"Looks like your party just got crashed!" the girl before them exclaimed.

"Wait, no, it can't be—" the teens said in shock.

"That's right, it's me, Lynn Loud Junior. And I ain't going to let you hurt my little brother. You may have hurt some of my friends, but now you've crossed the line."

"Dennis! The pipe!" Robert frantically said.

"I don't have it, where could it have—oh crud…"

"Oh, you guys looking for this?" the athlete said smiling. Lincoln now had calmed down, relieved that his tough sister had come to the rescue.

"Go Lynn Go!" Lincoln chanted, though his voice was muffled by the cloth on his mouth.

"Um, actually," Dennis began, "we have a meeting at school to get to, so if you excuse us." Dennis began inching towards the main opening in the booth but was halted by a metal pipe that swung directly in front of him.

"Uh uh uh, you guys aren't going anywhere. After what you did to my brother, you won't be going anywhere for a long time…"

The teens gulped and crowded themselves into a corner of the booth.

"Lynn, we're sorry! We promise not to hurt anyone ever again, in fact, we'll do anything you ask, anything!" Dennis implored.

"Nope, sorry is for the losers," Lynn said. And without any hesitation, she began swinging at the boys with the metal pipe in her hand.

"Nooooo!" the teens yelled. Afterwards, it was only a loud sobbing from the teens that could be heard as Lynn struck them with fierceness.

"Go Lynn Go! Go Lynn Go!" Lincoln chanted on his sister who had just saved him from the pain of a lifetime. After about 50 strikes, Lynn's arm finally grew tired.

"That ought to do it!" she said, throwing the metal pipe out of the booth. She then proceeded to remove the cloth covering Lincoln's mouth and untied the rope from his hands and legs.

"Lincoln, are you ok?" Lynn said, worry evident on her face.

"Oh Lynn, yes, yes, I'm okay. I'm only hurting a bit from the few punches and kicks these boys gave me, but otherwise I'm fine."

"Oh Lincoln, I'm so glad to hear that. Next time be careful with who you talk to. Not all strangers are good people. If you want, I can teach you some martial arts at home. That way, if you ever end up in a situation like this again, you'll have the tools you need to send your enemies away forever."

"I will Lynn. Thanks for rescuing me, you don't know how much this means to me!" With that, Lincoln took Lynn into a strong, tight hug and kissed her several times on her cheeks.

"You're welcome bro, I'll always be there to protect you," she replied, embracing the hug and planting some soft, soothing kisses on Lincoln's cheeks and forehead. After a short while, the two stood up and exited the booth, leaving an unconscious pair of severely injured teens on the bloody interior of the ice cream stand.

Lana and Luan were immediately relieved when they saw both Lynn and Lincoln exit safely out of the booth. "Guys, you're okay!" they both exclaimed, and rushed over to envelope Lynn and Lincoln in a group hug. After separating from the hug, Lincoln spoke up.

"Guys, thanks for looking out for me. I don't know what I would have done without you. I love you guys so much!"

"We love you too Lincoln!" Luan said. "Now when we get home, I want to have a serious talk with you about looking out for strangers. I don't want you getting into trouble like this ever again!"

"And that's why I'm going to teach him some martial arts!" Lynn said, motioning some punches and kicks.

"Great idea guys," Lana said. To Lincoln she said, "Don't ever scare me like that again okay?"

"I won't."

"You promise?"

"I promise." With that, Lana sprung into Lincoln's arms for a warm hug, with Lincoln happily taking it.

"Alright guys, let's head on back to the arcades, there's a competition I've got to win!" Lynn Jr. said in her typical competitive manner.

"It's on!" Lincoln, Lana, and Luan exclaimed. And the four headed back into the amusement park, with Lincoln carrying Lana in his arms.

Alright guys, that wraps up chapter 6 of "The Loud Crush." It is a bit long, but hopefully that makes up for my absences! As always, please leave your honest feedback, it's all appreciated! That said, I hope to publish chapter 7 within the next two-three weeks, and let's see how things start to play out. This is Erik from EAP715, signing off, God bless. :)
