Chapter 116
(The Loud house)
Luna opens her eyes and sits up, she stretches and yawns and then she sees Lincoln's Deathwing alarm clock says that it is half past six.
She gets out of bed and sees that Lincoln is now gone. "Where is the little dude?"
Luna puts on her slippers and leaves the bedroom. She spots the rest of her sisters already falling in line to the bathroom.
"Hey dudes, has anyone seen Lincoln?" said Luna.
"Not really, isn't he in bed?" asked Leni.
"Nope, I woke up and noticed he wasn't there" replied Luna.
"He's probably downstairs eating breakfast" replied Lynn Jr.
"Why would Lincoln be awake on a Sunday?" asked Lola.
"She has a point, we all don't have any big plans today" replied Lucy.
Eventually they all finish with the bathroom and are all wearing their normal attire, then they all head out of their rooms and smell something very nice.
"What is that aroma?" asked Lori.
"I can smell it too" replied Luna.
"Sure smells tasty!" said Lola.
"You think dad made breakfast?" asked Lana.
"Whatever it is, it's down stairs!" said Lynn Jr.
"Judging by the fragrant scent that has gotten us moved, I assume someone is cooking pancakes" said Lisa.
"Wait, doesn't Lincoln know how to bake pancakes too?" asked Leni.
"You have a point there Leni" replied Lucy.
"Then let's Breakfast our way there now!" said Luan. She then heads into the room to grab Lily.
They all head into the kitchen to see they're mom drinking coffee and eating pancakes. "Morning girls, you're all just in time for breakfast."
Then they spot the plates with pancakes and see Lincoln putting the pan away. "Morning guys."
"Morning Lincoln" they all greeted.
"You made all of these didn't you?" asked Lori.
"Sure did" replied Lincoln.
"But why? And where's dad?" asked Luan.
"You're father had to go to the airport to meet up with an old college buddy of his, probably the one who kicked him out of the band, I just hope there isn't gonna be some tension" replied Rita.
Rita then gets up and puts her coffee mug into the sink. "No need to worry Lincoln, I'll get the dishes."
"Thanks mom" he then looks to his sisters. "Let's eat!"
They all sit down and eat their pancakes, thought something was off about the pancakes, and it wasn't the taste. But instead it was the shape.
"Lincoln, why are these pancakes the shape of Star Wars stuff?" asked Luna.
"Cool! Mine's looks like BB-8's head!" said Lana.
"I have mine in the form of the first order" said Lisa.
"Mines looks like Chewie and feels Chewie too! Oh, there's bacon bits in the pancake" said Lynn Jr.
"Sigh, I have Darth Vader shaped ones. Wicked" said Lucy.
"Mine's is the rebel sign thingy" said Leni.
"Looks like I have the Empire, not gonna be choking on the darks side here! Hahaha! Get it?" said Luan.
"Okay bro, what's this all about?" asked Lori.
Lincoln checks his watch. "The reason why I made these is because I have some big plans for us later at twelve!"
"Really?" asked Lucy.
Lincoln nods. "I know that you guys don't have any plans of any sorts for today and school starts tomorrow, so I thought we could all do some cool stuff today."
Even though they all thought something was up and Lincoln might drag them into something he likes, some part of them thought that they should just go with it.
"Heck, I'm in bro" said Luna.
"I'm in" said Lynn.
"Same here, sigh" replied Lucy.
"So are we" said the twins.
"I did wanted to study more on the device I have, but I guess whatever it is you have plan could do me better" said Lisa.
"No birthday gigs for me, so my day is not booked, as if it was already written on page! Hahaha! Get it?" said Luan.
"I don't know what we're gonna be doing, but I'm sure it will be fun. So I'm in as well" replied Leni.
Lori sighs. "Okay Lincoln, we'll finish breakfast, get ourselves ready and then head off to where you're taking us."
Lincoln then looks to his mom. "Mom, Lily isn't old enough for where we're going."
"No need to worry sweetie, I'll watch over Lily, you and the others go have your fun" replied Rita.
Then Lincoln scratches Patriots head. "You're gonna have to stay here to bud, I don't think they'll let you into wherever we're going."
This made them all confused. They all continue eating their breakfast. Then somethin comes into Leni's thoughts.
"By the way, how did your big date last night go?"
And boy did they have a lot to tell them.
(The Royal Woods Theater)
The Royal Woods Theater is now finally done with restorations, and now it's back in service.
Vanzilla soon arrives and finds a parking space. All of the Louds come out.
"So, this is the place?" asked Lynn Jr.
"Are we watching the opera or something?" asked Lola.
"Please say no" said Lana.
"That is improbable, there are no scheduled Operas for today or any day as of the moment and judging by the now glowing lights. It seems that the Royal Woods Theater has finished all of it's renovations" replied Lisa.
"Well, it was about time, I love being here and reciting my poems" said Lucy.
"And let's not forget that this place is also haunted" replied Leni.
"She's literally right" said Lori.
"Well, let's not get too spiritually into it, otherwise we'll be going down the boat and into the theater! Hahaha! Get it?" said Luan, and they all groan in response.
Luna then looks to her brother. "Linc, what's going on?"
Lincoln checks his watch and smiles. "And now!"
"Now what?" asked Leni.
They soon see some vehicles coming in, from family vans, a taxi and some cars.
It was the rest of their friends, Liam, Tabby, Stella, Rusty, Polly, Zach, Giggles, Haiku, Rocky, Mollie, Joy, Kat, Sadie, Cookie and Sam.
"Oh, Hi everyone!" greeted Leni.
"What the what?" said Lynn Jr.
"What is happening?" asked Lori.
"Now this is what I call, flocking together!" said Luan.
"Why is Rocky and Haiku here?" asked Lucy.
"Odd, very odd indeed" said Lisa.
"This looks kinda familiar" said Lana.
"Why are some of your pals here?" asked Lola.
Then something came into Luna's head. She then gets an idea and looks to Lincoln who is smiling. "Bro, is this a Star Wars gathering thing?"
They all gasp and look at Lincoln.
Lincoln just smirks. "Good guess there sis." Then he gets tackled by Jordan, but he manages to stay standing.
"And you're the last one to check in" said Lincoln.
"Sorry, once again couldn't resists. Also, is this really a Star Wars gathering?" asked Jordan.
Lincoln looks to all of them. "Yes, yes it is."
"What?!" they all yelled.
"Not to be rude man, but there isn't gonna be a new movie right now" said Stella.
"Yeah, they just finished yesterday, what makes you think they're gonna show it today?" asked Zach.
"Even I went to the internet yesterday and saw nothing" replied Sadie.
"Same" replied Mollie, Kay, Joy and Cookie.
"Did you check during the afternoon?" asked Lincoln.
"Yeah, why?" replied all five of Jordan's gal pals.
"Well, I check last night. When we got back home from the Winter end festival" replied Lincoln.
"So, something is being showed today?" asked Tabby.
"Yup" replied Lincoln.
Then Sam gets an idea on what it is. "It's ….. It's the new Star Wars isn't it?"
They all gasp and look to Lincoln, again.
Lincoln chuckles. "Only some of you guys are making good guesses today."
Then Lincoln turns around and sees an employee open the doors and bring out a poster that says, Now Showing: Star Wars Episode 9: the Rise of Skywalker.
All of them just stare with mouths agape.
"And that's what I planned" said Lincoln. "Now come on, let's go in."
But then Lincoln gets grabbed on the shoulder by Jordan. "Lincoln, as cool as it sounds. I doubt some of us have the cash for this movie."
"I brought my wallet with me, sadly some of it was mostly spent when I went to the mall weeks ago" said Lori.
"I forgot my wallet back home" said Leni.
"Same here guys" said Sam.
"Well this bites it" said Lola.
But then Liam and Tabby could see the smile on Lincoln's face.
"Mate, you have a plan, don't you?" asked Tabby.
Lincoln chuckles. "I am the man with the plan after all."
"Dang Lincoln, and you pull it off again!" said Liam.
"Lincoln, what did you do?" asked Lori.
"Last night, I used my money to preorder the tickets. I got a message that I have to pay for them all here at the Royal Woods Theater and it also came with a code promo" replied Lincoln.
They were all shocked. Lincoln just spent his cash for all of them, to be together and enjoy the movie.
"Bro, you really didn't have to do that" said Luna.
"Yeah, you could've told us and we could all pitch in" said Lynn Jr.
"No joke and no cash about this whole or-deal!" said Luan.
"This is just too much of you Loud" said Mollie.
Jordan then looks at Lincolns caring smile. "Guys, it's okay. I did this so we could all enjoy this finally thing that we all have started to love. Like when we all got together to watch the Mandalorian and all of the other Star Wars movies."
They all felt moved by this.
"Nice one man" said Rusty.
"You always know what to say" said Zach.
"Lincoln does it again" said Polly.
"Sigh, which is just too thoughtful of you" said Haiku.
"But wait, what is that code you said?" asked Rocky.
Lincoln goes to the ticket booth.
"Ticket please?" asked the woman.
Lincoln shows her his phone and the code image. She pulls out her tablet and takes a picture and runs the image through a device. "Okay, you and your company are all clear, enjoy the movie."
Then Lincoln hands an envelope with the money for the preorder.
The others were kinda confused.
"What just happened?" asked Leni.
Lisa then realizes. "It appears that image on Lincoln's phone is the ticket. The device scanned it and indicated all of the preorder purchases from their online data bank and the result it read up all the tickets that were required."
At first they were all confused.
Lisa sighs. "The image on Lincoln's phone is the ticket or tickets."
"Oh!" they all reply.
But then the woman calls back Lincoln. "Hey kid! It's supposed to be twenty-seven tickets and you only have twenty-six people, counting yourself."
Lincoln does notice this and does a head count. "Let's see. Lori, Leni, Luna, Luan, Lynn, Lucy, Lana, Lola, Lisa, Jordan, Stella, Haiku, Rocky, Zach, Liam, Rusty, Polly, Giggles, Tabby, Mollie, Sadie, Kat, Joy, Cookie, Sam, myself …. Wait, where the heck is Simon?"
They all notice this, mostly Stella. "Where is he anyway?"
They all look to Sam. "He's not coming."
"What? Why?" asked Lincoln and Stella.
"He said he has some things to do, he took his bike and went off. I have no clue where" replied Sam.
Lincoln sighs. "Well, this isn't good. I was hoping he would love this movie, even though he never saw the other ones."
"So, what do we do with the extra ticket?" asked Rocky.
"I don't think Clyde and Penelope watch Star Wars" said Zach.
"And I doubt anyone in the Morticians club would want to see this" said Lucy.
"Agreed" replied Haiku.
"Margo can't be here. She has to visit her pregnant auntie" said Lynn Jr.
"She's hoping it's a baby girl cousin, who she cans hare sports with" said Polly.
Lisa looks at the movie poster. "I know Darcy cannot come, she cannot be able to understand the true grammar and probably some foul words from the movie."
"She's not wrong, I think" said Lana.
"And one thing I do know, is that they don't give out tickets to eagles" said Lola.
"Lola, they won't allow pets in here. Unless they're gonna have a pet show or something" said Jordan.
"All of our friends are way too busy with their own things" said Lori.
"It's true, same with my friends from work and friends from school" said Leni.
"Guys, we gotta come up with the ticket to our problem here!" said Luan.
Giggles chuckles. "Nice one Luan."
"This sure bites it hard chaps" said Tabby.
"So, now what?" asked Rusty.
Then the woman hands Lincoln back the extra two-fifty bucks. "Here kid, we do refunds if there's a no show. It's also part of the promo."
Lincoln takes the money. "Umm, thanks." he then puts the cash into his pocket.
"Also, don't forget to show the same code promo to the snack bar" said the employee.
"Okay" he then looks to the others. "Come on guys, let's go."
They were all confused and shocked. They were expecting for someone to come and be part of this, but this was easier than they thought.
"Didn't see any of this coming" said Zach.
"The universe has ways to work in ways we cannot predict" said Haiku.
"You lost me back there kid" said Sam.
They all head to the snack bar and order what they all want to eat, afterwards Lincoln shows the employee the code promo on his phone and they were all given the clear to watch the movie, shocking that they were the only ones there.
They all find their seats and wait for the movie to come up.
"This is so exciting!" said Mollie.
"Finally, this ends it all!" said Sadie.
"And we also saw the three different trailers last year!" said Joy.
"I can't wait to see Poe again" said Cookie.
"Or Kylo Ren" said Kat.
"I for one have only one interest, to see what new technological advanced vehicle they have made for this final chapter of the saga" said Lisa.
"And let's not forget who's the bad guy here" said Lana.
Lola groans. "Yeah, old and ugly face."
"Immortality is truly his greatest power" said Haiku.
"And truly a power I wish I could have" said Lucy.
"Same" replied Rocky.
"Dude, what the heck are you even saying?" said Rusty.
"Leave him be bro, Rocky's just having his Darth moment" said Polly.
"I wanna see some space battles and some physical alien dudes!" said Lynn Jr.
"Let's not forget our gal Rey" said Stella.
"And the iconic Millennium Falcon" said Tabby.
"Or some of them horses we saw in the trailer" said Liam.
"There's gonna be a lot of blasters in this one, I'm sure" said Zach.
"I hope there are some funny scenes" said Giggles.
"Comedy gold, bronzium and silver for sure!" said Luan.
"I hope there will be some romance" said Leni.
"Literally hoping too" said Lori.
"And the signature theme song" said Sam.
"You know it babe" said Luna. She is seated next to Lincoln with Jordan on the other side of Lincoln.
Jordan and Lincoln are both sharing the same Popcorn box. "This is probably one of the greatest plans you ever had handsome!"
Lincoln kisses her cheek and they both blush. "There's gonna be a lot of awesome plans coming for all of us this year my love."
Then the theater goes dark and they all get a message to turn off all electronic devices, in which they all do.
Then the opening titles enter: In a galaxy far, far, away …..
"This is it!" said Lincoln, and the movie begins! (Que signature Star Wars opening song!)
(Meanwhile somewhere in an abandoned open area near some warehouses)
Simon is pacing back and forth.
"Okay, okay. You gotta find a way to tell Luna how you feel and probably Lincoln as well" said Simon. "But how?"
Then he gets an idea and pulls out his phone. "I can text them! Yes! An idea!" he then pulls out a piece of paper in which he wrote down what he wanted to say.
He starts texting: Dear Luna, this is Simon Sharp. Don't ask how I got your number, but I do have a reason why. So yeah, I am gonna tell why,
I Simon Sharp, have had a crush on you since Sam introduced me to you. Ever since that day, I never stopped thinking about you. I have been having some hard time on trying to talk to you because I felt so nervous when I was near you, so I guess you can say I was pulling a Clyde.
And here is my confession.
Every night, I kept dreaming about you. About how beautiful you are with your pixie haircut, you're serenating voice that breaks into my ears, the way you're body moves to the beat is so mesmerizing, you're sweet and adorable laugh is just so divine and the way you slowly turn, stare and bat you're eyes feels like everything is in slow motion and that the only thing that matters is you and you alone.
And if I have to be really honest with you, whenever I start daydreaming of you or even looking at the picture I have of you. I get these strange dreams of you and me, some of them might be a little too far, from kissing, to hugging and cuddling and at some point ….. Some very physical stuff, I even do it …. To your picture, I hope this isn't too disturbing to you. But I just can't help myself, you are like a goddess! a goddess who deserves to be with someone who knows you better, I know some of the songs you love, but I don't know all of things you truly love and I hope that one day I can find out.
So what I'm trying to say is, I love you Luna Loud! I really do Love you!, yours truly Simon Sharp.
Simon then hits send, Simon sighs in relief.
Wait for it.
Wait for it.
And he realizes what he just sent and looks at his phone. "What have I done?! Stop! Stop! Stop!"
Then he sees a notification: The number you have sent to is not available, please try again.
Which only meant that the message never came through.
Simon sighs in relief. "Thank goodness!" He then leans onto the wall and looks at his note and text.
Simon decides to keep the note hidden and place his text message into the drafts.
Simon then looks to the sky and watches the clouds pass by and closes his eyes. "Luna ….. Luna Loud."
Then he feels something weird. "Not again!" he then races into the warehouse and into a private door and locks it.
What the heck is happening here?!
I will not bring out any spoilers to the movie, Star Wars the Rise of Skywalker. But I might add some to the following chapter, and it seems Simon might have some very adult rated thoughts about the musical Loud. Leave a review and tell me what you think.
