Chapter 343.
In collaboration with avenger44.
(Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore Camping grounds.)
The sun shines on the early morning and the sound of a bear roaring is enough to wake some of them up. "Okay, we get it, its morning!" yelled The Rock. "And I thought Sgt. Slaughter was the man with the wake up calls."
Everyone in the cabins all wake up and they all get started with getting themselves freshened up and then putting on some fresh clothes, luckily each of the cabins has its own bathroom, but just in case, there are some shower rooms nearby the main mess hall.
As everyone comes out of their cabins, they all smell something delicious and they see who's been cooking, and yes The Rock is cooking breakfast.
But he's not alone. With him is Simon, Clyde, Chloe, Emma, Jordan and even though he's on crutches Lincoln Loud. They all have made everyone some breakfast composed of bacon, eggs and breakfast sausage and for drinks are orange juice, well coffee for Coach Keck, and all was made by the campfire after the bear roared.
Where is the big sleepy bear Toby at? Fast asleep next to the campfire after eating his share of cooked food. Classic Toby.
"Alright everyone, eat up before it all goes cold" replied Clyde and Chloe, they both hold hands when they say it together, which catches the attention of Lincoln and Jordan, they're both into each other.
Everyone enjoys the breakfast that was given to them and all of them like the cooking from the ones who woke up, Stella then sits next to Simon. "So, you learned this from your mom?"
Simon chuckles. "Yeah, I kinda did. She knows how to cook and also teach on how to cook and she says she's gonna take this one week without me as a chance to help Sam out and help her learn some cooking tricks, I mean she is 16."
"Once again, Clyde and Chloe know how to make the best food we've ever tasted" replied Tabby. "Looks like summer camp at baking camp was all worth it and also good for the both of ya, next to meeting each other."
"Thanks Tabby" replied Clyde and Chloe, they both blush and chuckle nervously, and this was cute.
"Dang. You guys should really be cooks when you guys grow up, sure is gonna be awesome if the two of you had your own restaurant" replied Trent as he then drinks his orange juice.
"Actually, if they wanna start on the whole cooking thing, they're gonna have to start as apprentices before they can be confirmed as great cooks" replied Hassan. "But who am I kidding, this stuff is so delicious!"
The eagles soon come down and are also given the same meals and enjoy what the kids have been cooking, but Bullet is still fast asleep and has some left over fish all over him. How many did he eat and catch last night anyway?!
Lincoln then eats his breakfast with Jordan by the benches. "They're not wrong Clyde, you could start as an apprentice for my dad's restaurant" replied Lincoln. "Sometimes we hear him talk about one day letting someone take the place when he finally retires and it could be you."
"That sounds like an awesome thing for you and Chloe" replied Jordan. "Even though your both not of blood, none of the louds are gonna be that good at cooking, but you and Chloe are and I can see a future where the two of you might run the place and make it even better than before."
Clyde and Chloe both eat their meals and think about this. "Well, we can give it a shot, after we have high school and if we ever think about college" replied Clyde.
"But for now, we should enjoy our food and get ready for the activities for the day" replied Chloe. Everyone enjoys having some energy into them, but six girls beg to differ.
"Meh, tastes like something we've eaten before, it's not that special" replied Hope.
"Also, we've tasted better food for the finest of chefs from around the world and this is nothing compared to them" replied Regina.
Leslie snickers. "Oh yeah, and no other sophisticated and proper restaurant would ever wanna let those two be apprentices, they don't have the class or the skills to do make the right dishes for those who demand it and critic it."
Everyone looks to the six girls in anger, Clyde and Chloe do their best to remain calm and then they recall the words from their mentor at Baking/Cooking Camo and remain calm. "Well, I guess some people have their own tastes, no one here has the same tastes and the same thoughts on cooking" replied Clyde.
"Or even the good skills" replied Chloe. This makes them all chuckle, because it's true, those girls don't know a thing about cooking, or baking.
This angers the six girls. "Excuse me! Who the heck do you two dorks think you are talking back to us like that? We can cook, unlike you two wannabee chefs!" said Karen.
"Karen that is enough!" yelled Coach Keck. "Now, I don't want any squabbling while we eat, we all have a lot of fun things to do today, and if I catch you girls acting like this to everyone else, then I will put this on written and have Principal Ramirez see them and I know your parents wouldn't want this on your permanent records."
Leslie and her friends remain silent. They did not wanna get in trouble with the coach, or the Rock and the bear is awake and looks to them and then goes back to sleep, only he sleeps by Clyde and Chloe who enjoy his furry company.
Then Rusty whispers. "Sure as heck, they're already in the permanent records since day one." This makes the other students snicker, because it's true.
Leslie and her friends did not like these words or the others making fun of them. 'They have a lot of nerve making fun of us, we're the ones who show them whose weak! We are not weak!' Karen was thinking of a plan, but she knows going against Leslie's back is a total mistake, so she has to think of something else, something that Leslie won't be able to notice easily, same goes with Hope and Gretchen. They seem to be way too loyal and watchful when it comes to those who are Leslie's friends.
(Skip, later in the day.)
As the days go on, everyone are enjoying the activities that they signed up to and the list has been kept with either the rock or Coach Keck, to make sure no one sabotages the activities, though the Rock doesn't seem to be available and said he'll get the other activity ready.
Clyde, Richie, Chloe and Emma are making cherry jam together. Rusty, Lance, Liam and Trent are sailing in the lake, Zach and Hassan along with Simon, Tabby and Stella are trying out the drones they made.
Sadie, Kat, Cookie and Jenny are enjoying the beach side and also helping clean up some trash they found, looks like the last folks who were there didn't bother to clean up and Christina, Polly and Giggles go hiking alongside Paige and Renee and they chat about what they could all do together when they get home.
Artie and Flat Tire are with Morpheus and are enjoying the nice scenic ride on top of the bear, Toby, who is also pulling a wagon of other students and enjoying the nature all around, but sometimes the bear has to sleep again and they're okay with it. Classic Toby.
Haiku, Joy, Mollie and Persephone are checking out the turtle eggs that hatch, but then they back off when the mother snapping turtle comes back and scares them away. Jeez!
Everyone else is enjoying all the fun activities they all wanna try out. Lincoln and Jordan walk towards Coach Keck. "Hey Coach, where the heck is the Rock?" asked Jordan.
Coach Keck smirks. "Looking forward to the activity with him huh? Very well then, Dwayne Johnson should be here in, five, four, three, two and one."
Lincoln is confused by this and then he sees a dune buggy and riding on it is the Rock himself and all his awesome and great glory, he's wearing his life guard uniform.
"He decided to wear that, just in case some of the kids get caught in the water" replied Coach Keck. "Classic Dwayne Johnson."
The Great one arrives in front of them and he removes his shades. "Greetings you two, ready for the greatest ride you two will ever get?" Then he realizes. "Okay, so maybe you guys have had better rides than this, but you know what I mean."
Lincoln then looks to Jordan. "So, we're gonna ride with the rock on his dune buggy?" Jordan nods. "And you forgot to realize I still have a hard time walking right?"
Jordan then holds his hand. "Linc, we have a plan and it's gonna let you have fun even if you're a bit crippled, sorta." She looks to the rock and nods.
The great one nods and he activates the button onto his dune buggy and a special seat is made in the back with a special seat belt harness and some holders for his crutches. Lincoln is shocked by this. "What the heck just happened?"
Coach Keck chuckles. "Yup, this is what he was doing after breakfast, modifying his own dune buggy."
The rock then tosses Jordan two helmets and Jordan then catches the helmets and she passes one to Lincoln. "So, you ready for this handsome?"
Lincoln looks to the dune buggy and then to Jordan and smiles and has a determined look. "Let's rock, roll and ride!" The two kids go to the dune buggy and they strap themselves in and hold on tight. "This is gonna be so awesome! Probably as awesome as sky diving!"
"Hit it champ!" said Jordan.
"Let's rock this ride!" The Rock hits the gas and they speed off across the sandy shores of the lake and cheer for this awesome ride, all while some of the kids also cheer and record all of this. Lincoln Loud, the boy who has a cast, is riding a dune buggy with his girlfriend and The Rock, and living it up to the max!
Leslie Silver and her friends see this and are shocked and they too wanna do the same thing, so they go over to Coach Keck. "Hey coach!" yelled Chastity. "Anything for us to do today? Like dune buggies?"
Coach checks the list. "Sorry girls, but that's the only dune buggy around and The Rock is only letting them take a ride on her for the while dang day, there are other activities, if you girls want."
This makes them angry, they wanted to hang out with the Rock, but now they can't and they think they know who could've done this. Leslie on the other hand, she wants to hang out with Lincoln at one of the activities, and also tend to his needs since he's a bit crippled.
"So, what are the other activities?" asked Gretchen.
Coach Keck then checks the list. "Okay, so we have some sand boarding, canoeing, hiking is still up for grabs, there's space for making cherry jam and then there's plant replanting at the near sight of the woods, but you gotta be cautious about that one."
Leslie and her friends all did not like where this was going. "Fine, we'll take canoeing. That should at least give us something to do."
"Okay then, follow me." They follow Coach Keck to the lake and head for the shed where they keep the canoes, but deep down this is an excuse for Leslie to see what Lincoln and Jordan are up to, obviously.
Meanwhile, Lincoln and Jordan continue to enjoy their time riding the sandy shores and with the eagles by their side, they then stop when they reach a nearby picnic bench. "Well, was that awesome or what?" asked The Rock.
"Awesome to the max!" they both reply with cheer.
The Rock chuckles. "Glad you guys enjoyed it, we should take a break for a while." They get off the dune buggy and Jordan helps Lincoln to his crutches, and they head for the picnic bench and enjoy the rest of the lake, they do see some of their friends and other campers on sail boats.
"So, anything happen after you guys went back home from the whole Aloha Beach Resort and Hotel?" asked The Rock.
Lincoln and Jordan then tell the man about all the things they did after those events, including the return of the Carson brothers, a few other enemies, they're one week stay at Great Lake City that almost turned into disaster and they're return to school and starting of clubs. They kept their stay at Lake Eddy a secret, they don't wanna tell him everything they did.
"Hmm, so I guess it's another normal day for you guys back in Royal Woods?" asked the Rock.
"I guess you can say that, but with the presence of Leslie Silver and her 5 friends, things haven't been the same ever since" replied Lincoln. "Everyone is keeping a close eye on the rich girls and make sure that whatever trouble they're up to, gets reported so we can be able to send them out of town."
"The real issue is that they're parents aren't around to even handle the problems themselves" replied Jordan. "But should the time arise and they do something that goes way too far, then things get personal and the law has to be put into action and fast."
"Which is why from what I heard, you guys got yourself some kind of space ship?" asked the Rock.
"Well, it's not a spaceship" replied Jordan. She then thinks about it. "Okay, so I guess it is a spaceship, but it's more like a front line eyes in the sky instant reinforcements cruiser just in case the Allied outpost can't send any troops fast enough, and it's called a Battlecruiser, Gorgon-class, codename: Gladius and it was made and given by FutureTech and the Rosato name has full control of the ship."
The Rock lowers his shades and is shocked and confused. "Dang girl. You really are this serious to keep an eye on that rich girl and her friends, I did get some messages and notifications from social media about the things happening in your town and I am a total believer with the whole Silver is a bad kid thing, a lot of people are."
Lincoln sighs. "The one thing I don't want, is Leslie talking to my sister's, she even thinks about interacting again or even having one of my sister's get caught in one of her stupid plans, then it gets so personal, that I am going to do everything in my power and will to make sure she never, ever comes back into Royal Woods Michigan, again!"
Lincoln then takes some deep breathes and tries to calm down, this kinda startles Jordan and the Rock and Lincoln tries to keep himself calm.
"I just….. I don't want my family to get caught into this new bad persons misdeeds, she's causing trouble in town with insults and remarks, I don't want my sister's getting mocked and harmed by her and her stupid rich posse" replied Lincoln. "They're nothing but trouble, and it all started when Leslie moved into town and lived there. We have to find some way to get her out of our lives, or we'll never be able to hear the end of it."
Jordan goes over to comfort him and so do the eagles. "Linc, we can handle what happens when she does have a plan. We've fought through so much and learned how to stay strong, even in the face of death. I know we can win and when the time comes, then we'll never see Leslie or her friends ever again."
Lincoln smiles and he kisses Jordan. "Thanks, I needed that and I really hope we don't have to see her ever again. She is such a…. a…. a pain in the ass."
Jordan gasps at what he said. "Lincoln!"
"What? The only person here besides you and me is the Great One and he has said a lot of words like that" replied Lincoln.
The Rock sighs. "Look kid, I know things are gonna be hard now with this new rich girl still in your home, but don't let her presence be the downfall of whatever new lives you guys seek. She's an obstacle and when obstacles are in the way, you find a way to knock em down and keep em down, and if they come back, then show them how strong you've become and take them down, for goof. Whoop they're candy ass back to the main street of the dump site Scrooge McDuck wannabee money bin!"
Lincoln and Jordan feel motivated by those words. "Yeah, you're right The Rock. We can handle her and we will win, no matter what happens, she'll never break us apart. I'd die before she gets to me."
Jordan didn't like those words, but she'd do the same too and they share another hug. The Rock smiles seeing this, but he also has a bad feeling that more are to come for the young couple and for their family. 'They're gonna need all the help they can get.'
But what they don't know, is that Leslie and her friends on the canoe overhear them and are shocked that Lincoln would say that and they now know what everyone in Royal Woods wants, them out of town and no longer able to come back ever again.
They then paddle they're way out of sight. "What the hell?!" said Karen. "We're surrounded by everyone who wants us out of town?! Are you joking me?!"
Regina thinks about everything. "This….. This is bad, we're outnumbered and not popular and now they want us defeated and locked up like the rest of those dorks they fought?! This isn't happening!"
Gretchen stops paddling. "We have tons of plans, tons that haven't been executed and most of them are involving renovations to the town and its places and we haven't even made them happen."
"I guess the weak peasants of Royal Woods are rebelling against us" said Chastity. "They're gonna regret messing with us and doing all of this new planning and rules stuff towards us!"
Hope sighs. "Yup, we did woke up a sleeping giant and they are so angry at us for being in town." They look to their leader. "Leslie, what do we do now?"
Leslie did not like where this was all going. She came to the town, to show everyone who was boss, and then when she met Lincoln, she wanted him and everything he has and now, all she has been hoping and dreamt for, is falling apart and Lincoln is leading the charge, alongside Jordan.
"Girls, this changes nothing" replied Leslie. They're all confused by this. "They have an outpost, and they may have some big ship, everyone in town, that FutureTech Company and whatever friends they got and lots of cash. But we have cash too, and we have all the power we need, to ensure all that we've been planning comes to bear and we win when the fire settles."
"We are not going down without a fight, this battle won't be over, until they surrender and we win! Lincoln will be mine, Jordan will be forgotten and everyone will worship us, respect us, and love us! We will claim what we desire and no one will stop us from getting what we want!"
They all felt confident, like the Leslie Silver they know has ignited a new spark within her, one that seeks everything they need and want and they are all in on whatever she has planned.
Just then a large fish hits their canoe and they fall into the water, they surface and see they're ruined clothes. "Oh come on!"
Day 2 to the 5 day stay in Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore Camping grounds.
To be continued…..
A/N: They all have fun, they all enjoy what they wanna do, and now it seems Leslie and her friends are gonna try and up the ante, to get what they want and make sure Lincoln and Jordan don't win the fight. The future of this story is unknown, but continuing with a new foe who won't go down so easily. Leave a review and tell me what you all think.
