Happy Easter everyone. It's time for another chapter. Let's see what's next for Lincoln.
Chapter 5: The wisdom calling
As the night rolled in the three friends who were in their set up camp shelter sleeping. Ronnie Anne and Clyde were sleeping okay, but Lincoln was tossing and turning in his sleep.
In his dream
Lincoln looked around and saw he was back in Royal Woods in front of his house.
Lincoln: (Confused) Huh? I'm home? What am I doing here? (Calls out) Clyde? Ronnie Anne?
He hears screaming coming from inside the house. He rushes inside and sees his parents being sucked into a vortex as they we're holding onto the couch.
Rita: (Panicking) LINCOLN!
Lynn Sr: (Panicking) HELP US!
Lincoln: (Freaking out) MOM! DAD!
He was about to run in to save them. But strong hands on his shoulders held him in place. He turned and saw Christy holding him back with an evil smile on her face.
Christy: Let them die. Trust in me.
Lincoln: (Turns back to his parents in worry) No. (Tries to break free) NO!
But it was too late. Rita and Lynn Sr fell through the vortex screaming.
Rita and Lynn Sr: (Shouting in fear) LINCOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLN!
Lincoln breaks free from Christy and was gonna jump into the vortex. But it disappeared just before he could reach it.
Lincoln: (Shocked and worried) MOM! DAD! (Turns to Christy, angry) You!
All Christy did was laugh evilly. Then suddenly she disappeared and his sisters appeared laughing sinisterly.
The girls: Hi Linky.
Lincoln: (Confused) Girls?!
He backed up into the wall but when he did, the wall fell apart into pieces until the hole showed a cliff into a fiery pit. He looked around and saw there was nowhere to run.
Lori: Join us Lincoln.
Leni: You'll love it.
Lucy: The world will belong to us.
Luna: And you'll be a prince of the whole world.
Lynn: Now stop being a baby and join us.
Luan: You'll live forever.
Lisa: And you get a personal butler.
Lola and Lana: Join us. Please Lincoln.
Lincoln: (Tries to be brave) I'LL NEVER JOIN YOU! I'D RATHER DIE!
The girls just glared at him because he was still refusing.
The girls: Then…. DIE!
The pushed him off the ledge and he fell into the pit of fire. As he fell, he screamed in horror.
Lincoln: (Screaming) AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
Suddenly he didn't feel like he was falling anymore. He looked around and saw an empty land which resembled a desert with night skies and grey sand. He sees some people around a fire.
Man: Ah. You've have arrived. You must be Lincoln Loud.
Lincoln: Uh…Yes. Who are you guys?
Man: We are the legendary Vampire Slayers from long ago. I'm James.
Woman: I'm Bella.
Man: My name is Michael.
Man: I'm Maurice
Woman: And I'm Alice.
Bella: We fought Vampires for ages and ages.
Michael: Way before you were born.
Alice: We've fought descendants of Vampire kings and queens.
James: And from what we've seen from the heavens, one descendant yet remains.
Lincoln: Christy. She made my parents disappear and turned my sisters into vampires. Now me and my friends are trying to find a way to set things back to normal. I just don't know how. I'm mostly worried about my family.
Alice: Yes. You're sisters may not be thinking straight due to Christy's power.
Michael: Once you're turned into one, your mind is corrupted with the powers of darkness.
Bella: Such a sad thing it is.
Lincoln: Where did Christy even come from? And why is she rising now?
James: She knew the when all the Slayers of Vampires were no longer existing in life, that was her perfect opportunity to escape from her prison she was sentenced to many ages ago.
Michael: Now that she has, she plans to rule the human race as they tried years ago.
Ashley: And she want's that legacy to expand. So she needed a family to do it.
Lincoln: And she chose mine.
Maurice: Now with none of us left, it's only a matter of time before the world is consumed into bloodlust chaos.
Lincoln: What am I gonna do. Me and my friends, Clyde and Ronnie Anne are the only humans left from Royal Woods. And the worst part is I don't even know if my parents are okay.
Alice: Then why don't you ask them.
Lincoln: What do you mean?
Voices: Lincoln!
Lincoln turned and saw none other than his parents. But they were disembodied ghost heads. The condition of them made Lincoln jump.
Lincoln: (Jumps in fright) Aaah!
Lynn Sr: Hey it's okay son. It's us. Your mom and dad.
Lincoln: Yeah dad I know. It just look completely strange seeing you two as disembodied ghost heads.
Rita: Yeah. I suppose that's true. Are you okay sweetie?
Lincoln: I don't know mom. A lot is going through my mind. What happened to you guys?
Rita: When you went to see Clyde and Ronnie Anne, that vampire broke into the house and opened a portal banishing me and your father to the nether world.
Lincoln: (Overwhelmed) Wow. This is a lot to take in.
Maurice: I'm sure it is my boy.
Lincoln: And now she turned the girls into vampires. Lori, Leni, Luna, Luan, Lynn, Lucy, Lana, Lola, Lisa, Lily, all of them.
Lynn Sr: (Worried) Oh no. This is horrible. Not my daughters.
Rita: (Worried) Not my babies.
Lincoln: And now Christy and the girls are after me. But luckily, me, Clyde and Ronnie Anne escaped and fled from Royal Woods.
Rita: Where are you three now?
Lincoln: Mississippi. Now we have to figure out how to stop Christy, turn the girls back to human, bring you two back and save the world. But I just don't know how. I mean, I'm supposed to be the Man with the plan. Yet I don't know how.
James: We know how you can do it?
Lincoln: (Turns to the slayers) You do?
Bella: Yes.
Lincoln: Well can you tell me please. It's up to me and friends to stop the madness. I want my sisters and parents back. I don't want to live in family of vampires.
Michael: And you won't.
Maurice: What we'll tell you will truly help you and your friends.
Alice: Now listen carefully.
James: Many years ago we've created a magical artifact that has the ability to control and banish vampires. The Tentizone. It's a rare powerful orb that we used in our days among the living. We've sealed it away to keep it away from our enemies.
Lincoln: (Thinks) The Tentizone. I think I remember reading about it somewhere online. People thought of it as a sheer myth.
Michael: It's not a myth.
Bella: It's very real Lincoln.
Lincoln: Okay. So where can I find it?
Michael: We sealed it away in a chamber in North Dakota.
Maurice: However, the chamber is not as simple as opening a door. The chamber can be opened with three items. The Amulet of Courage.
Alice: The Pendant of Bravery.
James: And the Gauntlet of Loyalty.
Bella: When you've collected all three, the doorway to the Tentizone shall open.
Lincoln: And where can we find those?
James: As we speak, we've sent you and your friends a map in your backpack as you sleep. With it, it will reveal the locations of the items. Lincoln, the fate of the world is in your hands. You must do everything in your power to stop Christy, and save the world from chaos.
Lincoln: I won't let you down.
Maurice: We know you won't.
Alice: You have a brave heart.
Michael: Now go Lincoln Loud.
Bella: End the vampire terrine.
Lincoln: (Turns to his parents) Hang in there mom and dad. I'll save you.
Lynn Sr: You can do this son.
Rita: We believe in you.
Lincoln smiles and the dream fades away.
James: Farewell Lincoln. Good luck.
Back on the beach
The dream was over and Lincoln woke up and found himself back with his friends.
Lincoln: Wow.
He saw his friends waking up.
Ronnie Anne: (Yawn) Wow, what a night.
Clyde: (Stretching) I'll say man.
Lincoln: You guys won't believe what happened last night.
Ronnie Anne and Clyde looked at each other in confusion.
Ronnie Anne: Try us.
So they sat down as Lincoln explained what happened.
There you have it. Lincoln has meet the legendary Vampire Slayers, discovered his parents are still alive, and now knows what he and his friends have to do. What will the sisters think about this? Will they stop Lincoln? Will they transform him? And will Lincoln, Clyde and Ronnie Anne discover the Tentizone? Find out next time.
