Chapter 35
(Royal Woods, Sunday)
Lincoln is inside the room he shares with Luna, it's been 24 hours since they left Aloha beach and now the louds and the Rosato's are back home in Royal Woods, currently Lincoln is enjoying his time reading comics, then Lincoln closes his comic book and puts it away
"I think I'll go check what's on TV" Lincoln said to himself. He gets out of the room and heads downstairs, he looks around and sees that there is no one there, Lincoln smiles, he has the TV to himself and Lincoln grabs the remote, sits on the couch and turns on the TV
"Oooh! Operation Dessert storm" said Lincoln, the show was about to tell the winner, until Lynn shows up and pauses his show
"Lynn!" said Lincoln in annoyance "Not now! We just got back from our vacation and now one of Lucy's bats attacked me, and now it has a taste for my blood!" said Lynn who then shows Lincoln the bite mark
"Have you talked to Lucy about it, I'm sure the bat just-" "SQUEAK!" Lincoln and Lynn look at the chimney to see Lucy's bat (not fangs) smiling "You should run" said Lincoln, Lynn runs off somewhere with the bat in hot pursuit
Lincoln wants to watch TV, but decides to chase after Lynn and the bat
After only two minutes of chasing, Lincoln returns to the living room, he was able to catch the bat and shove it into Lucy's coffin, Lynn decided to get something to eat so she could gain her energy back
Lincoln, unpause the show, until Lola shows up and pauses it "Lana's animals stink up our room! And look what she did to one of my dolls!" said Lola who shows Lincoln the bald doll
"Yeesh! That is creepy, why would she do that?" asked Lincoln, then Lana runs in with the dolls hair under her arm pits "Woohoo! I got pit hair!" and she runs off again, with Lola chasing her
Lincoln once again goes after them "Better not let them kill each other" said Lincoln
Lincoln was able to stop the twins form strangling each other and got Lana to apologize to Lola, and to tell Lana to never shave her dolls hair again (as if Lana will keep that promise)
Lincoln returns to his show, until Leni pauses it "Lori is the worst roommate ever! Look what her big hair did to my hair clip!" said Leni, Lincoln sighs in annoyance "Look Leni, I don't really have time for this" said Lincoln
Leni notices the show he was watching "Oooh! You're watching operation Dessert Storm! Isn't it awesome that-" before she could say anything Lincoln covers her mouth "Leni! Please no spoilers!" said Lincoln, he lets her go "Sorry, I was just excited, and angry" said Leni
Lincoln knew that something was very wrong in the house, their parents aren't there because they already went off to work, so Lincoln needed to fix this, but he needed some back up
(Ten Minutes later)
Lincoln answers the door, and surprise! It was Jordan "So, you got sister troubles?" asked Jordan "More like sister roommate troubles" replied Lincoln in annoyance, Jordan kisses his cheek " and that's why I'm here" said Jordan
"You always know how to brighten my day" said Lincoln as he returns the kiss "I know, now come on! Let's go see what their issue is!" said Jordan, the two kids head upstairs to help resolve in their sister conflict
Just then Luna and Luan arrive from the kitchen "Hey Jordan, you look like you could use some pie!" said Luna "Haha Luan, I'm not falling for your pie trick" replied Jordan "Dang it! So close!" said Luan
"What are you two doing?" asked Luna, Lincoln sighed "It appears that our sisters are having some roommate trouble" replied Lincoln, this made Luna and Luan gasp "Glad we're not part of it" said Luna
"Yeah, otherwise we'd be in Room-more Trouble! Hahaha! Get it!" said Luan, making them groan "Anyway, me and Jordan were headed upstairs to see what the big issue was" said Lincoln
"Maybe we can help you two" said Luna "Yeah! More than two heads makes it quadruplet!" replied Luan "Awesome! Let's get to it!" said Lincoln
Upstairs all Lincoln, Jordan, Luna and Luan see all the girls (including Lily0 upset, not looking at each other and their arms are folded "Looks like they ate something expired in here" Luna whispered to Luan "Something rotten smells and it certainly isn't fishy! Hahaha! Get it!" replied Luan
Lincoln and Jordan take center of the room "Okay guys, it seems that you're all having some roommate trouble, so me and Jordan were thinking of having you guys switch roommates, but only for a day" said Lincoln
"If it doesn't work out, we can try it again to see which one is a more compatible roomie" said Jordan "I'm willing to try anything, this is my last doll with hair!" said Lola, but she screams when she sees it's hair was missing
"Relax, it grows back!" replied Lana, who was using the dolls hair for a mustache "No it doesn't!" yelled Lola, then a twin fight breaks out, Lori separates the fight "Let's get this over with"
"Alright, Luan the test papers please!" said Lincoln, Luan hands each of them a paper they can use to answer "Just answer the questions and we'll see which one of you are grade A-compatible! Hahaha! Get it!" said Luan, they all groan in response
After they answer all of the questions, Lincoln, Jordan, Luna and Luan check the results "alright dudes! The results are in!" said Luna, then she realizes what she just said "Whoa dude! I sound like my history teacher"
"Okay, so let's see we have Lana and Lynn whose rugger personality makes them a ninety percent match" said Lincoln
"Lucy and Lola for their share in the dramatics" said Jordan
"Leni and Lily for their innocent nature and their way to be cute" said Luna
"And finally there's Lori and Lisa, who both show a close similarity of being smart and referring themselves as superior" said Luan "Guess that was a real smart move! Hahaha! Get it!"
They all agreed and went with the new roommate plan, Jordan eventually returned home to await Lincoln's call about what was happening
Later Luna and Luan went back to their rooms, Lincoln then walks towards the rooms of Lynn and sees Lana and Lynn enjoying playing in the mud and rugby practice
At Lola's room, she was sharing a tea/blood party with Lucy and her bust Edwin
Leni was kind enough to play with Lily
Lisa and Lori were enjoying the peace and quiet from each other, since Lori needs some silence when she texts and Lisa needs silence to focus on her studies
Lincoln smiles and returns to the shared room with Luna "So, how did it go bro?" asked Luna "doing great! No arguments, no fights and no trouble at all" replied Lincoln, until "Dang it Lana!"
"So close!" said Lincoln, Luna and him head to Lynn's room, especially Luan who hears the commotion, inside they see Lana and Lynn arguing about Lana's pet snake
Another commotion is heard and they see Lola has completely changed Edwin, which Lucy is displeased
Lori and Lisa are having an argument, though Lori needs peace and quiet when texting, she then gets talkative when calling, the result, Lisa couldn't focus and a chemical explosion was made
To Lily's room, they see Lily crying because she accidently ripped one of Leni's newly made dresses, Leni yells at Lily in anger, but then she realizes her mistake and is trying to calm her down and apologize
"This isn't turning out so well" said Lincoln "Should we call Jordan?" asked Luna "I think I should" replied Lincoln "You do that, while we corral the commotion! Hahaha! Get it" said Luan
Lincoln and the others enter the room and help Leni with Lily "I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to yell at her" said Leni who was now sad
"It's okay Leni, you were just a bit angry and didn't know what you were doing" said Lincoln, Lily finally calmed down thanks to Luan
Later again, Jordan arrives, they try another swap, Lana and Lily, Lola and Leni, Lucy and Lisa, Lynn and Lori, the results
Lana is dirty, like when Lily poops, but Lana's animals were a complete danger to the baby
Lola and Leni both love dresses and make up, but Lola was a bit demanding, especially since she wants Leni to be her tea party play mate, but Leni has other things to do
Lucy and Lisa were both silent at some point, but having a sister who comes out of nowhere makes a great explosive story. Get it!
Lynn and Lori are tough, well, maybe a bit too tough, balls banging, loud arguments, pretty much them at their angriest
"And this one's a failure" said Lincoln "We can always try something else" said Jordan
The other sisters walk up to Lincoln "this isn't working Lincoln!" yelled Lynn "Yeah! And I am not bunking with Lisa even if you tried!" yelled Lola, but Lisa doesn't respond "Lisa? Asked Lori
"Perhaps I may assist in this situation" said Lisa "Now please follow me"
They head upstairs to Lisa's room (also Lily's) and they see a large machine "I built this baby to help pop-pop find a soul mate, but I guess he's not ready for love again" said Lisa, she then places papers into it "I am able to analyze data using everyone's School records, journals and of course DNA samples" said Lisa
"Um, how did you get our DNA samples?" asked Luan "Did I say DNA samples?" Lisa said nervously, suddenly the machine makes a sound signaling it was done analyzing "and we have our matches, but before I read this I should warn you that I used all of the available Loud sibling data" said Lisa
This made them a bit confused, but Lincoln realizes what she meant "Wait a minute! When you said all of the loud sibling data, did you also meant mine, Luan's and Luna's?" asked Lincoln in slight anger
"Precisely" replied Lisa, this shocked the three louds "What the bloody heck brah?!" said Luna in anger "Well I had to, in order to figure out which sibling should be compatible roommates, I had to include all of the siblings" said Lisa
"What? That is totally unfair dude!" yelled Luna "Unfair? You get to bunk with Lincoln and you two are pretty much at peace!" said Lynn "Yeah! While we're stuck with each other!" said Lola
The whole thing spirals into an argument "Alright that is enough!" yelled Jordan, they all remain silent "This is not going well, if you guys want to switch, we should ask Lincoln" said Jordan, they all looked around and he wasn't there
"Lincoln?" said Luna "Lincoln?!" she went out of the room and saw Lincoln walking towards the room she shares with him, the others also see this "Lincoln, where are you going?" asked Luna
"Where else to pack my things and move in with my new roommate" replied Lincoln in sadness, this made Luna's heart break "What?! No, Lincoln you don't have to do this! Please Lincoln!" said Luna
"Luna I know we're both pretty much the only siblings here with no issues, but I don't want things to spiral again, like the sister fight protocol! Because the last thing I want is getting beat up for nothing, or better yet, get beat up for a stupid reason" said Lincoln, he heads into his room and packs his things
Luna was left in shock and remembers the sister fight protocol, how they isolated themselves, made their parents cower in fear and worse take Lincoln's room, the other sisters overhear this as well as Jordan
"What's the sister fight protocol?" asked Jordan, none of them wanted to answer "It's something that we should've stopped long ago" said Luna
Lincoln then comes out with some boxes of his clothes and comics, he walks towards Lisa and takes the result papers and reads it "looks like I'm moving in with Lily" said Lincoln, he then heads inside "I'll be back for my other stuff later" said Lincoln, then he closes the door
Luna starts to cry, she turns around and faces the others "I hope you're all happy!" yelled Luna, she then ran tot eh room, that she no longer shares with her brother, the loud sisters realized what they just did, they just broke apart the Sibling bond that Lincoln and Luna had
Lori picked up the paper and read it "Lola and me, Luan and Lucy, Leni and Lynn, Luna and ….. Lana and finally Lincoln and Lily" but something was wrong "Lisa, why don't you have anyone to room with?" asked Lori with some slight anger
Lisa gulped "Well as it turns out that I match with no one, and in truth I prefer cohabitation, so I can have a living test subject, it's a head scratcher really" said Lisa as she scratches her head, but then her hair falls down and reveals that she may have played with too much radiation
Jordan knocks onto Lincoln's new door "Lincoln, are you okay?" asked Jordan, she then puts her ear onto the door and she could hear some light sobbing while also hearing some comics being unpacked
Jordan backs away from this, she was now filled with anger, Jordan looks at the loud sisters "Meeting now!" said Jordan, Lola was about to object "But you can-" "NOW!" yelled Jordan
They all scrambled into Lori's room, with an upset Jordan following, she looks back at Luna's room and Lily's room and sighs "I'm gonna fix this, for both of you" said Jordan, she then heads inside
All the sisters were seated as usual, Jordan crosses her arms and looks at them with a disappointed look "Jordan, w-we didn't mean for this to happen" said Leni, Jordan stayed silent "Luan, you can go, you had nothing to do with this" said Jordan
Luan nodded and decided to head to the living room for a while "Now, I'm gonna make this question clear! Why aren't you guys cooperating together as roommates?" asked Jordan
They gave her straight answers as to why, arguing, animals, gloomy, smelly, annoying and pretty much all of the things each loud sister is capable of, Jordan just couldn't believe what she was hearing
"Are you kidding me?! You guys do this every day! It's pretty much all of your force of habits!" said Jordan, Lisa then realized "You're right! How did I not see this sooner?!" said Lisa
"Because you were too busy focused on your own thing and worries, than even noticing the real problem was never the roommate trouble" replied Jordan, they knew she was right
Lori is bossy and always on her phone, Leni isn't bright and she tends to forget, Lola is pink and bossy, Lana is rough and dirty, Lucy is pretty much the duchess of darkness, Lynn is always making things into a sport, Lisa is just her smart self and Lily, well she's just a baby
"You're right Jordan, we always accept who we are, and Lincoln also does it as well, I guess we forgot, we're sorry" said Lori, the others also apologized "Not to me guys" said Jordan, they all knew they had to apologize to the two roommate who were closest to each other
Later Jordan knocks onto Luna's door "What?" asked Luna from the other side "Living room, now!" said Jordan "And what if I don't wanna dude?" said Luna "Now Luna Loud!" yelled Jordan, Luna sighed and opened the door, she was a wreck, her hair was a mess and she was clutching onto Lincoln's hadn-me-down guitar that he forgot to bring with him
When Luna was finally in the living room, Jordan proceeded to Lincoln's door "Lincoln, please come to the living room" said Jordan, the door opens and she sees Lincoln wiping a few tears "okay" replied Lincoln, he heads downstairs with Jordan following
Upon arriving in the living room, Lincoln sees Luna on the couch, and Luna looks to Lincoln, Jordan pulls Lincoln's arm and they both sit, far apart from Luna, Jordan then gets up and stands in front of the TV "Girls, come on" said Jordan
And on cue, the loud sisters come out of the dining room and into the living room (except Luan), Lincoln doesn't look at them, same with Luna, Jordan sighs "Guys, Is there anything you wanna say?" asked Jordan as she looks towards Lincoln and Luna, they didn't know what to say
"Lincoln" Lincoln turns to see Luna looking at him "I-I'm sorry I sorta acted selfish, I guess since me and Luan were roommates we were okay with each other, but when you became my roommate, I felt happy, I guess I shouldn't be hogging all of the happiness in the house when everyone else is miserable" said Luna
Lincoln couldn't believe what he was hearing, the reason why Luna was always agreeing or supporting him almost all of the time, was because she didn't want to lose the one roommate that made her feel comfortable, but Lincoln suddenly felt guilt and regret, he didn't want all of his sisters to feel unhappy or depressed, especially Luna
Lincoln sits closer to his rockin' sister "Luna, I didn't know you felt like this, I should've seen this coming" said Lincoln "We're roommates, the only ones who seem to get along, it's just, I cant help when something or someone in this house goes wrong, I have to fix it, so everyone can be happy, I'm sorry I made you upset" said Lincoln
Luna couldn't just sit there and let her brother feel bad, she slowly approaches him and hugs him tightly, Lincoln isn't shocked by this and returns the hug, both crying onto each other, Jordan couldn't help but shed some tears of her own
The other sisters were now feeling more guilty, all their squabbling and arguing about their roommate troubles didn't start a fight, but instead nearly broke a bond, Lincoln and Luna soon break the hug, and wipe their tears away
"Lincoln, you're right, maybe we should have different roomies, so everyone gets a fair game in this" said Luna
"Are you sure?" asked Lincoln, Luna nods in response "I guess it's time to pull off a page from your selfless book" said Luna as she ruffles Lincoln's hair, they both laugh a bit
"Guys" said Lori. Lincoln and Luna look towards the other siblings "We were thinking and with Jordan's help, we were being stupid, arguing at each other being worst roommates, we do this every day outside of our rooms and we can tolerate them" said Lori
"We never thought that we didn't tolerate them outside of our quarters, we were acting like oversized, Low intellect homosapien's" said Lisa
"Instead of changing roommates, maybe we should try changing our attitudes and dealing with each other's habits" said Lana "Like how we used to accept you reading in your underwear" said Lynn, hearing this made Lincoln blush and Jordan a little confused
"So, we're not switching rooms?" asked Lincoln "No Linky, we're not" replied Leni "Our room feud almost tore each other and you two apart" said Lucy "So, with that being said, we have one thing to say Lincoln and Luna" said Lori "We're sorry!" they all replied
Lincoln and Luna were touched by how they cared for them and how they finally resolved it, on their own (with a little outside help of course), Lincoln and Luna get up and share in the group hug, Jordan smiles at the touching sight
Then she sees them looking at her "Come here Jordan, you're family too" said Leni "We'll gonna be family one day" replied Lynn, Jordan felt a little embarrassed, and decided to join in, Luan comes out of the kitchen and sees 'Huh, guess the problem was solved' said Luan to her thoughts
Luan decided to join in, even though she didn't do anything wrong, Lincoln was glad that it was all sorted out, because for a minute there he thought he was gonna share his room with a baby that poops faster than a soft served ice cream machine (was that too far?)
I know I might get a lot of criticism from this story, but just so you should all know, I had this idea stuck in my mind since I made the chapters of A Fairly Odd Dimension for Spells and Louds and I just needed to let it all out, so please review me and tell me what you think, I can take the criticism!
