Hey, Rad2405 for the forth chapter. Now, in this chapter, Lincoln will personally confront his bully, and with that, there will some mixture of episodes, but they will all add up soon. Disclaimer: I do not own Brightburn or The Loud House.

The next morning.

It's been one day after Lincoln's birthday and the conflict between him and Lynn Sr. To make things better, the Louds are going to their annual trip to Scratchy Bottom Campgrounds. The Loud kids hate it because bears always steal their food, they have to sleep on the hard ground, poop in the woods, and it has mosquitoes the size of weasels. Right now, they're packing everything in the van, with Lori head counting her siblings. "Why couldn't we go to the beach" She mutters. "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 ... Wait."

Lynn Sr. gets out of the front seat and ask, "Something wrong Lori?"

"We're missing Lincoln and Lucy."

Rita gets out of the front seat and says, "We'll go get them. You all just stay in the van." They all nodded. Rita and Lynn Sr. go inside the house to look for Lincoln and Lucy, but then hear the sound of scraping metal. They turn and see Lincoln in the dining room eating cereal. Lincoln still has the spoon in his mouth, still chewing on it.

"Lincoln" Lynn Sr. said, holding his shoulder. Lincoln stops and takes the spoon out of his mouth, which has been bended. Lynn Sr. was stunned, but then gets back to Lincoln. "C'mon, we need to go. Where's your stuff?"

"Oh. Sorry. It's in my room. I'll go get it" Lincoln gets out of his seat, but stopped by Rita.

"No" Rita said. "It's okay. We'll go get it. You go stay in the van." Lincoln nodded. As Lincoln left, Rita and Lynn Sr. went to Lincoln's room. As they got there, they find Lucy next to Lincoln's bag. "Lucy, there you are."

Lucy turns around and says, "Oh, hi mom."

Rita then sees something in Lucy's hands and ask, "What's that you got?" Lucy hands it to Rita and it turns out to be smut (more specifically, women in bikinis). Lynn Sr. walked up and also saw this and both parents were stunned. "Lucy, where did you find this?"

"Under Lincoln's bed" She answered. "I was writing my poems in the vents. When I got out, I saw something under Lincoln's bed. I didn't even know he was into that."

"Lucy, don't look at anyone's things without permission" Lynn Sr. scolded.

"Sigh. But look at the next photos." Rita flipped through the next photos, and saw pictures of organs. Both parents were speechless until Lucy spoke. "I know. I was just as shocked as you are."

"Why don't you go in the van and take Lincoln's stuff too" Rita said, giving Lincoln's bag to Lucy. Lucy nodded and then left. Rita looked towards her husband. "Is this his idea of porn?"

Lynn Sr. shrugged, "I don't know. He is growing up. You think I should give him "The talk"?"

"I guess, but let's just go." With that, they put the smut back under Lincoln's bed and went to the van.

At Scratchy Bottom Campgrounds, the Louds are setting up their camp. Lincoln and Lynn Sr. we're setting up the tent. Lynn Sr. asked, "So, how's school going for you?"

"Okay, I guess" Lincoln answered monotoned.

"How's that bully? Did you tell the principal?"

"No."

"Why?"

"Well, Lori said when a girl picks on someone, that means she likes them."

Lynn Sr. was stunned. "No it does not! The things she'd done to you is straight bullying."

"I just wanted to find out, because, what if Lori's right?"

Lynn Sr. looks to Lincoln sternly. "Lincoln, listen to me. When someone is bullying you, it's because they just want to. Understand?" Lincoln was confused. "Good talk" Lynn Sr. sighed and continued working on the tent.

Tonight

The Louds are asleep in their big tent, except for one. This one leaves the tent and looks at the sky.

In another house, a Latina girl is asleep in her room. This was Ronolda "Ronnie Anne" Santiago, Lincoln's bully at school.

The mic drops, we don't stop

Pretend the sun's never coming up

High tops, tube socks

Following the trends even though we'd rather not

Ronnie Anne suddenly woke up to see her computer opened and playing a pop song. She got out of bed and closed it. But as she went back to bed, she hears the song playing again. She turns around and sees her computer opened. She closed it and put a flower pot on it. As she went back to bed, she hears the song play once more. She turns around and sees her computer opened, with the flower pot off. She turns off her computer, but then hears something else.

"Who's there" She asked in fear. She sees her window opened, with something or someone behind her curtain. It looked like someone with white hair. She backs up to her door, until she jumped when it opened. She saw her mother, Maria.

She turned on the light and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Someone's behind my curtain" She panicked. Maria sees her daughter's window open, but nothing behind the curtain.

"There's nothing there."

"Yes there was!" Ronnie Anne was hugging her mother tightly.

"Who?"

"Lincoln Loud" She whispered. She was on the brink of tears, with her mother comforting her.

Meanwhile, at Scratchy Bottom Campgrounds, Rita was searching for her son. "Lincoln" She called out with a flashlight in her hands. She then feels something pass her. She turns around and sees Lincoln behind her. "Lincoln, where were you?"

"I was doing my business here."

Rita sighed. "Don't run off like that. Let's go back." They both walk back to the campsite "By the way, you're father told me what Lori said to you. You don't actually believe what she said right?"

"Maybe. I'll see" He answered monotoned.

Rita thought, 'What's that mean?'

Well, Ronnie Anne is scared for life. But just wait when she faces Lincoln. Hope you enjoyed it.
