Chapter 212
(The Loud House.)
Lincoln finishes using the bathroom and then sees Luna waiting for him. "Hey sis, you need to use the bathroom?"
"Nah bro, I was waiting for you so we can all go to the park. Did you tell Jordan to meet us there?" asked Luna.
"I did, she's kinda confused but I told her that it was your idea to go there. Is anyone else joining us?" asked Lincoln.
Luna chuckles. "That's a surprise bro, now come on. Let's get going."
They both head downstairs and into the living room, there they see some of their siblings watching TV. "Hey dues, Linc and I are headed to the park" said Luna.
"Have fun you two" replied Lori.
"Is it okay if I tag along? I could use some fresh air time at the park. And maybe some inspiration too" asked Leni.
"Sure thing Leni, the more the merrier" replied Lincoln.
"Yay!" cheered Leni. "I'll be back, I just need to grab something from my room!" she heads upstairs.
"Well, we should be waiting for her outside then" said Luna.
Lincoln then looks to Lisa who comes down the stairs with a drone. "Going to check on Patriot and Valkyrie sis?"
"Indeed I am. Though I would like to take stool sample from their offspring, they refused too. I do believe they know when their younglings are feeling healthy or not, so I will respect their wishes" said Lisa.
"Respecting the privacy of others, good call Lisa" said Lucy.
"I am five years old now and though I have a new horizon into seeing things with curiosity. I must also be respectful for what I am doing" replied Lisa. "Also, I should suggest to purchase some new Noise-Be-gone ear buds for Lily soon, the old ones will be worn out in a couple of days."
"Can't you just fix them?" asked Lana.
"That would be a good idea, but chances I might make a slight mistake and they would be deemed unrepairable" replied Lisa.
"Noted, I'll put that on my memo to buy some new ones" said Lori.
"Well, Lily better "B" safe than sorry if she doesn't wanna get Noise in her sleep! (Laughs.) Get it?" said Luan. They all groan from that pun. "Come on guys that was pretty funny."
"Not even close" replied Lola who is polishing her nails.
Luna and Lincoln do see their mom on her laptop. "Making another article for the gazette mom?" asked Lincoln.
"I am, and I know you two are busy so you can go ahead and have some fun with Lincoln Luna" replied Rita.
"Thanks mom" said Luna.
Then Leni comes down the stairs. "Okay, let's get going." They notice she brought with her, her purse.
Lincoln, Luna and Leni leave the house and hop into Luna's purple Ferrari. "Let's get going dudes! To the park!" And they drive out of the driveway and leave towards the park.
(Ketcham Park.)
They soon arrive to their destination. Luna parks her car and then they all get out. "Alright dudes, let's head on inside and wait for Jordan and the others."
"We're expecting some company?" asked Leni.
"We are, I don't know who but I know one of them is Sam for sure" replied Lincoln.
All three loud kids head into the park and look around, they see some of Lincoln's friends there and some of Jordan's gal pals as well.
"Looks like your new crew of friends are enjoying themselves" said Luna.
"It looks so sweet, kinda reminds me of when you and Jordan were always spending so much time together" said Leni.
Lincoln also agrees, he can see Trent and Kat by the fountain laughing, Artie and Cookie laying on a field of flowers and looking up and Lance and Joy sitting by a bench sharing an ice-cream. Lincoln also notices some other lovers. "And they're not the only ones here."
Leni and Luna see all three of Lynn's roller derby gals with their dates and they all seem to be enjoying themselves.
"Dang man, this park sure knows how to put romance in the air today" said Luna.
"I guess it all started when Lincoln and Jordan shared their best moments here, like when they first met" replied Leni.
"And I look forward for next year's anniversary for Jordan and me. Now, let's find someplace to wait for the others" said Lincoln.
They go towards some picnic benches and wait there, though Leni sits underneath a nearby tree and looks to the park, she needed some inspiration. Probably for a new fashion line she's making.
Lincoln and Luna pull out their acoustic guitars and tune them and start strumming, then Lincoln feels like something was watching him. And before he could even turn around he's tackled by someone and they both start laughing.
Luna also laughs at this cute sight of Lincoln and Jordan. "Got you again!" cheered Jordan as she's on top of him.
Lincoln chuckles. "Yeah you got me. This tackle and hug thing is gonna be one of these things we're gonna keep having huh?"
Jordan goes closer to his face and they kiss. "You can say that." Lincoln then kisses her again as he sits up. They soon break the kiss and look into each other's eyes.
Luna smiles and Leni sees this and records it, truth be told she saw Jordan sneaking behind Lincoln earlier, so she started recording until the tackle scene. She's gonna be sure the rest of the family sees this.
Lincoln and Jordan then get up and sit onto the benches. "Hi Luna" said Jordan.
"Hey little Rosato, glad you could make it" replied Luna.
"Well Lincoln said you wanted to show us something, but I know you won't show it because it seems you're waiting for some other company" said Jordan.
Luna chuckles. "You're like a black magic woman reading my mind little Rosato."
"Just a hunch" replied Jordan. Then they see three other figures headed towards them
"Luna!" yelled Sam.
"Over here dudes!" said Luna.
They notice with Sam was Simon and Stella. Now they were all getting suspicious as to what these two musical teens are up to.
"Hey guys, let me guess Sam said she has something to show you two?" asked Lincoln.
"Pretty much" replied Stella.
"And Luna must be planning the same thing as well for you two" said Simon.
"Yeah, so now that we're all here. What's the big news before I say mines?" asked Jordan.
"Take a seat dudes" said Luna. They all do as they're told.
"Alright, so some of you guys know that I had to cat sit for the McBride's right?" asked Luna.
"Yeah" said Lincoln and Simon.
"Not really" replied Jordan and Stella.
"Okay, well to those who did not know, I took the gig into taking care of the McBride cat's Cleopawtra and Nepurrtiti. They had to go to a McBride family reunion and they're usual cat sitter canceled at the last second" replied Luna.
"Well, that's some good information. And I could only guess the cats were giving you a hard time" said Stella.
Luna chuckles nervously. "Yeah, they were. I mean I can handle Cliff but these cats were feisty and very much uneasy with how I was trying to keep them in line. I did find the book on Kitty care that the McB's told me about, I had to feed them before 10 and then I realized it was way past ten and they got cranky, next I had to give them walks and then the walks turned to running and finally was bath time and they did not like that word at all."
Lincoln could tell his sister had a hard time. But then something came to his mind. "Why were you going to give them a bath? Did something happen?"
"We ran and we hit a guy delivering cake and I guess you can say I got icing on me and the cats real good" said Luna.
"That sounds like something Luan would wanna see" replied Simon. "And I could guess that's when Sam came into the picture right?"
Luna nods. "You guessed it little dude. Sam is great with animals, the only animals that seem to be okay with me are the ones we call family. So, I called Sam and she came to help."
"I came as fast as I could to help out, the little kitties were cautious at first because they can't be around more than one new person who comes through the door. But they were comfortable with me when I made contact, and with my help we aced in taking care of those fur babies!" said Sam.
"Sam distracted the kitties while I gave them a bath" said Luna.
"We gave each of them a massage and pedicure" said Sam.
"We played some games, from Tag to hide and seek and nothing was broken. Those cats are good when it comes to playing games and keeping the house stuff from breaking" said Luna.
"Then we took some selfies with them and made them look pretty in the pics" said Sam.
"And finally we sang them a lullaby and put them to sleep" said Luna.
"Though I don't know what happened after we did that" said Sam. "Until we woke up and realize we both fell asleep with the cats and we were face-to-face with the McBride's."
"They were kinda shocked that I brought someone over, but I told them that I was terrible with animals and I needed help. They were glad I was honest to them and they were proud at how we handled it as a team, so they gave each of us forty bucks which they pay us by the hour" replied Luna.
"But …. I gave all of my earned forty bucks to Luna" said Sam.
They were all confused by that last part. "Why?" asked Jordan.
Luna and Sam were both smiling. "So we can show you guys there!" They place in front of them the tickets for the Kid Rock live show.
"What?!" All four kids say in shock.
"No freaking way!" said Lincoln.
"Kid Rock!" said Simon.
"You guys got the tickets?!" asked Jordan.
"These things cost a lot of cash, I saw it from an online add" said Stella.
"We know, I was able to have the cash I have saved and thought I should get three tickets for me, Simon and Stella" said Sam.
"And even though our family is loaded with mad cash. I wanted to earn my keep to get the tickets for me Jordan and little bro, and that's why I took the gig for cat sitting. For this!" said Luna.
All the kids grab their tickets, get up and hug Luna and Sam. "Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!"
Luna and Sam smile and hug them back. "Anytime little dudes. We both did this so we can all have a rockin' good time!"
Leni sees this and then takes a picture. "So cute! The others are so going to like this!"
"Not as much as me" Leni turns around and someone grabs her purse and runs for it. "Hey! My purse!"
Lincoln, Jordan, Luna, Sam, Simon and Stella see this. "Stop Thief!" Leni chases after him. The others also take chase. "Hey!"
The man continues running away from all of them, but then he's leg swiped by Trent, he gets up and gets punched in the face by Lance and then Artie hits him with a leg kick to the face and the crook lies on the ground unconscious.
Cookie gets the purse and hands it to Leni. "Here you go Leni."
"Thank you so much boys" said Leni.
"No prob" replied Trent, Lance and Artie.
Lincoln was shocked and impressed. "Wow, nice one guys!"
"Hey, when we saw the whole ordeal we had to take action" said Trent.
"Also, I saw that guy earlier when we went into the park. I thought he was just a homeless man" said Artie.
Lance then drags the unconscious man and ties him onto the lamp post and puts a sock in his mouth. "This should keep him from running, thank goodness my uncle taught me how to tie a knot."
"I am calling the police" said Kat.
"Good idea" said Joy.
Lincoln and Luna then hug Leni. "Are you okay sis?" asked Luna.
"I'm fine, at least it wasn't one of those mean kids that wanna come for revenge on us" said Leni.
Hearing this made Lincoln a bit worried, he then looks to Trent, Artie and Lance. 'They trained for combat and all I have is little experience and little to know stuff from Lynn and the baseball bat I got. I think ….. I think I should toughen up even more, just in case. But I'm gonna need someone else to train me, someone who can make me stronger.' Then he gets an idea. 'And I know just the mentors to do it!'
A/N: Sorry if this is short, but I promise this'll make sense once Lincoln takes his footsteps into learning how to fight! And on Saturday is the big concert hang out. Leave a review and tell me what you all think.
