Chapter 61
(Loud House Residence. Morning)
Lincoln wakes up and looks around. He then realizes he was on Luna's bunk. He looks at his sleeping sister and smiles.
"Keep on resting sis" said Lincoln quietly. He gets to the bottom of the bunk and heads straight to the bathroom.
Later Lincoln is in the kitchen eating a breakfast burrito his dad just made. Suddenly Lynn Jr arrives.
"Morning Lynn" greeted Lincoln. "Morning Bro" replied Lynn, though she still looked drowsy and a bit miserable.
Lincoln knows this has something to do with the basketball team she has. Lincoln wants to say something, but he decides not too and let Lynn eat her breakfast sandwich.
(Later in the day)
Lincoln is in the living room going through the channels. He then sees Lori and Leni coming down the stairs fully dressed for the day.
"Hey guys, going somewhere?" asked Lincoln.
"We're just headed to the mall" said Lori.
"Our friends called us and said there's this big sale on shoes and skirts!" said Leni.
"We'll see you later little bro" said Lori. "Cool, say hi to the others for me" said Lincoln.
"Wait what others?" said Leni. "He means Carol, Dana, Becky and Whitney" said Lori.
"Oh, okay. I'll also say hi for you to Miguel and Fiona, if they're around" said Leni. The two older loud sisters exit the house and board vanzilla.
Lincoln then gets ruffled in the hair by Luna. "Hey there little bro" said Luna.
"Hey there sis" replied Lincoln. Luna takes a seat next to him on the couch and hugs him.
"What's with the hug?" asked Lincoln. "I don't know. I just felt like it I guess" replied Luna.
The two of them spend the whole morning just sitting on the couch watching TV. Mostly just looking for something interesting to watch.
The moment ended when Luna got a call from Chunk and Lincoln heard a knock on the door.
Lincoln heads to the door and sees who is was. "Hey there Beautiful" said Lincoln.
He gets shocked when Jordan hugs him and then kisses him passionately.
They soon break the kiss. "Okay, what the heck was that for?" asked Lincoln. "I have no idea. It's like I felt a weird presence when I was asleep last night. Like I needed to come and see my handsome boyfriend" said Jordan.
It was then he realized. 'This must all be from last night' Lincoln says to himself. He decides to keep it to himself and head to the backyard with Jordan.
For the most of the day. Lincoln and Jordan just spend the day just laying down next to each other under the shade of the tree.
Patriot is sitting on the roof looking over the town and watching over the twins in the front yard.
Patriot does notice from a distance, Lynn and Flip going around town in his car. Like their looking for some players or something.
(A few minutes later)
Vanzilla returns. Lori and Leni exit the vehicle and head inside. Then everyone hears a loud scream.
They all immediately head inside and see that it was Leni who screamed in horror.
And right in the living room is a very large spider. Lori may not be afraid of spiders, but it was very creepy.
Lisa comes down stairs and spots the large arachnid. "Fascinating, a Palystes Castaneus. Very rare to find some of these inside of a house" said Lisa. But all she gets from the others are confused looks.
She then straightens her glasses. "A Huntsman Spider" said Lisa.
"Is it dangerous dude?" asked Luna. "Very much. Known for its amazing speed and venom. Probably one of the venomous spiders in America, next to the Black Widow of course" replied Lisa.
"I don't want it to hunt us" said Leni as she cowers behind Lori. "Leni, it's just in its name and- never mind" said Lori.
"So, how do we get rid of it?" asked Lola. "Well, we have two options. A. we try to contain it, which will be an issue because of its speed or B. we kill it on the spot" said Lisa.
"I'm gonna guess that's not gonna be easy either" said Lincoln. "You guessed correctly" said Lisa.
Just then their dad comes out of his room. "I heard screaming! What's going (sees the spider on the coffee table) AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH! Spider!" yelled Lynn Sr. he then runs off into the kitchen.
"That was very anti-climactic" said Lisa. "We have to do something guys" said Leni.
Just then Lana gets an idea. "Maybe I can have either Hops or Izzy to eat it" said Lana. "You do know they will have a 76 percent chance of consuming the arachnid. It will still inject its potent venom before it gets eaten" said Lisa.
"So, it's like. If it goes down, it's gonna take something else with it" said Jordan. "Exactly" said Lisa. "Wait. So where does it take them?' asked Leni.
"How about Patriot? He's a bird. Don't birds eat spiders?" said Lola. Lisa looks at her sternly. "Speed, Venom, Goes down with its predator" said Lisa.
"Oh, never mind" said Lola.
"Well, we gotta do something dudes. It's already giving me the creeps" said Luna.
"Maybe we can throw something at it?" said Lana. "And risk it running off into a hiding place so it can finish us all off later? I don't think so" said Lisa.
Then Lincoln gets an idea. "Lana, you still have crickets right?" asked Lincoln. "Yeah, why?' said Lana.
"I've got an idea!" said Lincoln.
A few minutes later, Lincoln and Lana come back with a jar and some crickets. Lincoln places the jar on the ground. Next Lana ties a cricket to a string. Then Lincoln uses his dad's fishing rod and puts the cricket on the bait end.
"Whoa!" said Lori. "Nice plan dude!" said Luna. "Mr. Man-with-a-plan!" said Jordan. "This could work" said Lisa. "Wait. I thought we were getting rid of the spider? Why is Lincoln fishing?" asked Leni.
Lincoln then tosses the cricket to the front of the spider. The spider slowly walks towards the bait. "Almost there" said Lincoln.
And with quick motion the Huntsman spider grabs the cricket. Lincoln quickly reels it in and drops the dangling spider into the jar. Lana gets a lid with small holes and covers it.
Lincoln then drops the fishing rod and lifts the jar. "Success!" said Lincoln. The other sisters cheer for the win.
"So what do we do with it now?" asked Lola. "Well, the humane way to deal with it is to set it free into the wilds or sell it to some weirdo online" said Lisa.
They all decided to go for the first idea. Lori starts vanzilla, Lincoln, Jordan, Lisa and Lana hop in and they head for the forest. Patriot follows them from above.
They're dad comes out of hiding wearing a spaghetti strainer and holding a spatula. "I-Is it gone?!" asked Lynn Sr in fear.
(Royal Woods Forest. Afternoon)
Vanzilla stops in the forest. They all get out and start walking into the woods.
"This looks like the equal environment for an arachnid" said Lisa.
There are some bushes, a stream and they could hear crickets in the background. Lincoln then places the jar on the ground and loosens the lid.
The top of the jar is attached to a string that Lincoln is holding. They all get some distance.
"Ready guys?" asked Lincoln. "Let's just get this over with guys" said Lori.
Lincoln then pulls on the string. The jar falls onto the ground and the spider runs out, but its direction is where they are.
They all start to panic and don't know what to do. Patriot sees this and starts to dive in for the kill. But the spider is then caught by a long tongue and is reeled into the mouth of a large toad.
The toad croaks and hops away. Patriot flies down and lands on a tree branch a little shocked at what just happened. "Well, that just happened" said Lincoln.
"Did not expect that to happen" said Lori. "That was way too close" said Jordan. "Thank you Mr. Toad!" yelled Lana. "Why must you interact with the creatures here?" asked Lisa.
They all walk away and head back into Vanzilla.
(Loud House Residence. Late Afternoon)
Vanzilla finally arrives back home. They all head inside and see Luan on the couch watching TV.
Earlier Rita had to bring Luan to get her braces checked up. Lucy isn't there in the house because she was doing a séance with Haiku and the members of the morticians club.
"Hey guys. The others told us what happened here" said Luan. Then Rita comes out of her room. "Oh good you're all back, your father is finally calm. But we're gonna have to order pizza for dinner" said Rita.
"Awesome!" said the loud kids and Jordan. Jordan called her parents and told them she was going to have dinner with the louds, which they were okay with.
Just then the door opens and they see a very excited Lynn. "You're looking happy Lynn" said Jordan.
"How did it go with your basketball practice?" asked Lincoln. "Let's just say, I had it all figured out and come tomorrow we'll be the ones bringing home the gold!" said Lynn.
"So, what happened here?" asked Lynn. "You have no idea how scary it was here when you weren't around dude" said Luna.
"Really?" asked Lucy out of nowhere. They all scream and back away. "How scary was it?" asked Lucy with a smile.
"We'll tell you guys at dinner. Also we're having pizza" said Lori.
"Whoa! Really? Wait, where's dad?" said Lynn. "And that answer will be during dinner" replied Lincoln.
After a very pleasant dinner with some very unpleasant conversations. Jordan was escorted home by Lori, while everyone else were getting ready for bed.
Lincoln stayed in the living room longer to watch some TV. He is then joined by Luna.
"Some heck of a day hub little bro?" said Luna. "Sure is sis" said Lincoln.
Then Luna decides to tell Lincoln something. "Last night, I had this very nice dream" said Luna.
Lincoln knew where this was going. "What was it about Luna?" asked Lincoln.
"Well, at first I was performing in front of a huge audience and you, Sam and Jordan were in the band" said Luna.
"That's sounds pretty cool sis" said Lincoln. "It sure is bro. but then it changed and I was dreaming of … You, back when we were really young" said Luna. Lincoln felt happy to hear that.
"I was counting to ten, then I went and found you. We laughed and then we hugged it out" said Luna.
She then proceeded to hug Lincoln. "It was really nice, remembering the good times we had back when all of us were just small" said Luna.
"It does feel nice remembering those times" said Lincoln as he hugs her. "But after that. I dreamed of all of the family, under the shade of the tree and I was strumming some good vibes on my acoustic while we're all watching the sunset on the sea side horizon" said Luna.
Lincoln doesn't say anything and just smiles. "Also, I wanna thank you for changing the batteries to my headset" said Luna.
Lincoln then gets a shocked look. "I know you were bunking with me that night" said Luna with a smile. "It was almost like you knew what was gonna happen" said Luna.
Lincoln needed to come up with an excuse, since she probably won't believe what he did in his dreams. "Well, I guess I just felt like you needed some company or I needed some company" said Lincoln.
Luna kisses his forehead and the two continue to watch TV.
A few hours later, Rita opens her door to get something to drink. She then notices the TV is on.
She grabs the remote and turns it off. When she turns around she's shocked and happy to see her third oldest daughter and her son sleeping on the couch holding onto each other with smiles on their faces.
She grabs a blanket from the chair and places it on them. She then kisses both of the kid's foreheads. "Goodnight you two" said Rita.
She then heads into the kitchen to get a drink. Meanwhile upstairs Lucy is secretly writing a poem about her séance while Lynn writes down some new strategies for the big game.
'Can't wait to win it tomorrow, the whole team will understand that I had to do to win' Lynn says in her thoughts before she gets some sleep.
Some of these random stuff I had when I spotted a spider in the bathroom, the touching moments was when I was re-reading the fanfiction "Special Sibling Bond", some of this is linked with my last chapter and the Lynn basketball thing is something we all know. Leave a review and tell me what you all think.
