Hey guys! JMbuilder here!
This time, Lincoln and Luna will bond more with their family and tell some of their adventures. And this chapter... May not have the best quality but it's satisfatory for me.
Also, PLEASE favourite, follow and review. I'm going to start asking for that to know more if you are liking my story and what I need to change.
Anyways, before we start, here is a response for Tristen and heavy5commando (Since reviews are of the same topics): Firts of all, thanks. Second, no. I won't activate "Operation Try To Find Our Lost Sisters And Lost Friends To Let Them Know That We Are Fine, And If They Are Alright Too And Think A Better Name For This Operation", yet. First, Lincoln and Luna need to adapt their lives like how it should be. I plan to activate by chapter 10 or later. But I may do it earlier. However, I won't do it right now.
Now, let's go!
Chapter 3 - Family To Hang Out
Almost in the evening...
Pendusky's House, 5:02 PM
In another house, is seen a certain boy called George getting out there with his bag to the car. He wears a green and white shirt, black shorts and black tennis. He has brown hair too and is actually waving to someone at the door.
George (Happy): Bye Jonathan! I see you on the first day of school!
Jonathan (Happy): Bye George! Good luck with your new foster siblings!
George enters into the car. Then, he sees that the person that is driving is Jonathan's Dad as he starts the car and goes to George's house. In the "journey", there was nothing special. No words. Until...
Jonathan's Dad (Not taking the eyes out of the road): So... Did you had fun, kid?
George (Nods): Yup! It was the best sleepover I had before the summer ends.
Jonathan's Dad: Ok cool. (Remembers something as he smiles) Do you know something?
George (Gets curious): What?
Jonathan's Dad: You and Jonathan make me remember me and my best friend.
George (Gets surprised): Really?
Jonathan's Dad: Yes... Except for the videogames and such things... They still existed at my time but we never really interested in that stuff.
George (Gets distracted): Yup...
Jonathan's Dad sees that he wasn't even paying attention anymore. He doesn't mind and, with that, focus on the road. To say the truth, George was excited but also nervous. In a good way, he finally will not be alone in the family. Not that his parents have little time to hang out with him but a weekend's afternoons isn't enough. The parents work many hours to have some quality time as a family only at dinner and when they watch tv. However, know new people is a challenge. Do they have some interests in common? They are friendly? And they will like me how I am? He has friends like its seen but every time its the same story. Awkwardness in the start and then he chooses if he wants them to be friends or not.
These thoughts were interrupted by Jonathan's Dad snapping his fingers at him.
George (Flinching): Huh what?
Jonathan's Dad: Sorry but we are already here.
George looks by the window and sees his house with her mom waiting at the closed front door. He smiles but gets surprised at this.
George: How did get here very fast?
Jonathan's Dad (Chuckles): Thinking looks like a videogame too: Time past faster. I learned it when I played once with Jonathan.
George: Oh... Ok... Right... Anyways, goodbye Mr. Carell!
The boy opens the car door and gets out taking his bag. He waves goodbye to the driver that goes away and runs to his mother to hug her.
Susan (Hugging his son): Hey George. Is everything fine?
George: Yes! It's all alright, mom. Did you miss me?
Susan (Chuckles): Of course I did, son... Now get in this house.
George gets inside the house and before he goes upstairs unpack the things up...
Susan (Almost forgetting): George, by the way: Your foster siblings are already upstairs.
George: Oh really?
Susan: Really. (Yelling to upstairs) KIDS! Your foster brother is already here!
At this Luna, that is relaxing at her bed with the radio on, and Lincoln, that was admiring the new room, hear their new mom's yell and start to get out of their rooms. At the moment they walk from the doors, George is already upstairs. He started to feel nervous like we can expect.
George (Sweating): Uh... H-Hi... M-My name is George... A-And you?
Lincoln (Confused): My name is Lincoln.
Luna (Confused too): And mine is Luna but... Dude, are you ok?
George (Clears his sweat): Yeah... S-Sorry... But I-I get nervous at m-meeting new people... It's n-not easy f-for me...
Lincoln: It means that... You are a little shy?
George: I g-guess...
Luna (Sympathetic): Don't worry, George. Everything will be fine. How about hanging out more to know each other? In that way, you won't be nervous.
George: Sure... T-That idea is not b-bad...
With that, the three kids enter on Lincoln and George's room and sit on the bottom bed of the bunk bed.
Lincoln (Smiles): Ok... For starters, I have to admit: I like the room.
George (Rubbing his head's back): T-Thanks...
Lincoln: And I need to tell a thing: Looks like that we have the same interests as an average boy have: Comics and videogames, for example.
George: Good. T-That's lucky. (Looks to Luna) And y-you Luna? What is y-your interest?
Luna (Showing a hand with all 4 fingers and another with one): Five letters: Music.
George: R-Really? Well... I listen to it but I'm n-not that fond. How did you get t-that interest?
Luna: From 7th Grade. When I got to the first concert.
George (Smiles): Really? From who?
Luna (Raising the voice but happy): From my favorite artist: Mick Swagger!
George (With wide eyes): Woah! First of all, calm down. Second, that's good. I'm not fond of rock but I heard him and it's a good singer. Sorry for not having an interest in him.
Lincoln: That's ok... (George looks back to him) No need to be sorry at her or at me, since I like rock too.
George: And the favorite a-artist?
Lincoln (Shocks his head): No artist. But yes, band. It's called Smooch. Did you hear from them?
George: Yeah but... Not interested. Honestly, I prefer music like the ones of last and actual decades of Eurovision.
Lincoln and Luna gets surprised at this and gets excited.
Luna: Dude... Do you really watch Eurovision?
George (Smiles): Yes but mostly o-only when it's on YouTube.
Lincoln: Fantastic! I and Luna love that contest! I have seen it since the one of 2 years ago!
Luna: And me 3 years before I got the talent (She was 10 years old, at the time).
George (Gets happy and less nervous): Cool! What is your favorite entry of this year?
Luna and Lincoln: Souls in the Sky!
George (Gets surprised and happier): What? It's my favorite too! Ok, how about last year's entry?
Luna: Tones!
Lincoln: They Let Me Run Alone!
George: I like that entry too, Lincoln! And what is the weirdest of all you have seen? For me is... Teto Rvet!
Luna (Raising an eyebrow): Really? For me is Kaila El Piqui Piqui.
Lincoln (Raising an eyebrow): For me was... Uh... How was the translation to English? Oh right! It was The Fight is Joy.
George: No... For me isn't: The songs Kaila El Piqui Piqui and The Fight is Joy were like joke entries since the singer(s) were comedians. One was to parody some incident between a king and president and the other was more a political message to the financial problems.
Lincoln and Luna were surprised at this knowledge.
Luna: Bro, how do you know that?
George (Smirks): Forgot that we are in the 21st Century?
Luna (Facepalm): Ugh... I was wrong. It was a mistake.
Lincoln: To be honest, I misunderstood too. It doesn't normally happen.
George chuckles at this. It was noted by the ex-Loud kids.
Luna (Grins): Oh... Do you think that this is funny?
Lincoln (Grins too): We will show what is really funny!
With that, the two kids start tickling their new brother. It made him laugh. They did it for a minute until...
George (Laughing): S-Stop! I d-don't want t-to get h-hiccups! P-please!
Lincoln and Luna (Stop tickling him): Ups sorry...
George (Tired due to the tickling): T-That's ok... Fig...
Lincoln (Looks to the clock): We have more than enough time. How about to get in other subjects?
George: Sure.
1 September, Sunday, 10:16 AM, Pendusky's Mall
If you want to know what happens next after that music talk, I'll resume since it was nothing that is not expectable.
Lincoln and Luna revealed to George some of their interests and George end up doing the same back. And here is the list: His favorite subjects are Geography and Science; He likes discovering everything about any theme; He rather sees comedy, action and mystery series and movies; He prefers more of Italian food; He likes drawing and reading, And he liked before collecting different rocks in the past.
When the talk ended... Let's say that the time "flies". There was dinner, watching tv and going to bed. While Luna and George slept very well, Lincoln had some trouble but he remembered what his new mom said and the advice worked. Next day, that is today, we are now seeing all the family entering the Pendusky's Mall. The reason is to give some extra stuff to the new additions to the Websters since they had nothing except some money and old clothes. The mall, at least for George, Oliver, and Lincoln, was very boring but this is worth it. Anyways, after entering in the building Luna and Lincoln are surprised for how big is the mall.
Lincoln: Okay... I may not like shopping in the mall but surely this is bigger than the one of Royal Woods.
Luna: That is very surprising! How this city could afford to that?!?
Susan (Grins): To who you are asking, Luna? We aren't the ones that built it.
Oliver (Laughs): Good joke, honey! (Stops and clears his throat) Alright, time to split up!
George: You look like Peter from Dcooby Goo.
Oliver: I know. But here the thing is: I, George and Lincoln will find the stuff in one place and Susan and Luna will find stuff in another place. Got it?
Rest of the Family: Got it!
With that, they split up. Now, let's see what they will buy.
Male's "Journey"
As the males of the Websters are going to find some stuff of catching ghosts (From the show ARGHH!!!) and of Ace Savvy, Lincoln tells to his new dad and brother, another adventure that he had.
Lincoln: And that's how I and my sisters were banned from that grocery store but I still got that cereal.
Oliver (Shocked, surprised and jokes): God... You were crazy or what?
Lincoln: Well... Let's say that my origin family was based on chaos.
George: And what happened to your relationship with your mother?
Lincoln (Frowns as he remembers that part): Well... I was a little angry at her for ignoring me at telling the truth. It got for days until she discovered all that really happen and apologized to me by going together to DairyLand.
George (Gets confused face): DairyLand?!? What's that?
Lincoln (Stops frowning and smiles): It's an amusement park of Royal Woods. It's very popular. (Then, gets confused) How you don't know that place?
George: I never went to the outside of Ohio State. Most of my summers were in camping parks.
Lincoln: Wow... At least, you haven't got nightmares about camping: The last time me and my family camp, I couldn't sleep or do anything without having fear of "The Hill People Hiding on the Trees".
Oliver: That type of "People" doesn't exist.
Lincoln: I surely know that they exist, dad! I even saw their eyes in a bush!
Oliver (Surrenders): Ok, I give up! Even movies create realistic monsters to scare kids!
Lincoln (More confused): Woah, dad! Why you are like that?
George (Getting his attention): Trust me. You don't need to know.
Lincoln (Confused but accepts it): Okay...?
The scene changes to a certain place (It's a toy and comic store to get the stuff but that's obvious). As it's found two walkie talkies by Lincoln, he remembers the times that he would communicate with his best friend Clyde. They could use their smartphones but it's funnier in that way. In that...
Lincoln: George! Catch it!
The white-haired boy throws one of the walkie talkies to his new brother and, with luck, he catches it.
George: What was that for?
Lincoln (By the walkie talkie): White Boy calls New Brother! Repeat, White Boy calls New Brother!
The brown-haired boy raises an eyebrow but he calls by the walkie talkie anyway.
George: New Brother calls Withe Boy! Repeat, New Brother calls White Boy! Do you hear me? And why you gave me that?
Lincoln (In normal voice and laughing a little): Sorry... I remembered me and my best friend.
George: Really? Good. And what's about the nicknames?
Lincoln: It's to be funnier.
George: Okay... For a walkie talkie that is from a ghost show, it's not bad.
Lincoln: I surely agree.
George: By the way, what ARGGH stands for? It's just to show the generic scare?
Lincoln (Shakes his head): No, it means Academy of Really Good Ghost Hunters!
George blinks his eyes at that big name and the fact that...
George: The part of "Really Good" looks like they're showing themselves off too much, in my opinion.
Lincoln (Shrugs): It's still a good name.
Voice (From George and Lincoln's Walkie Talkies): Walkie boys are called by man. Repeat, walkie boys are called by man.
The two boys get confused and look to all sides to see their dad with another walkie talkie.
George (Annoyed): Seriously dad?
Lincoln (Bored): You didn't even make a good nickname for you and it's not how the calls by the walkie talkies work.
Oliver: I didn't make any effort. It was to call you to come. I already have the stuff.
Lincoln: Great! Can we buy this too?
Oliver (Smiles): Sure.
/REWIND/
Female's "Journey"
Luna and Susan are walking to a music store as they are talking to each other.
Luna: And that's how our control freak sister stops turning our house into a dictatorship.
Susan (Raising an eyebrow): That sister was literally that bad?
Luna: First, "literally" is a word that she uses very much. And second, yes. We had to fight until our parents put a stop to that when they came back home.
Susan (Smiles): Trust me, could be worse. Somebody could be sent to the hospital.
Luna: True.
At this, they reach to the store and enter. Then, somebody calls Susan's name and when she turns to where the voice appeared, she sees other woman coming into her direction. She is wearing a black jacket, gray t-shirt, black pants, and blue shoes. She has black hair too.
Woman (Happy): Hey S Web!
Susan (Happy too): B Camp!
The two woman hugs each other and Luna look to it with a happy face for her new mother. Then, the hug is broken
Woman (Holds her shoulders): How much time... You certainly changed in these last four years!
Susan: Thanks. You did too. I thought that you were in Seattle, working with your brother in that magazine.
Woman (Gets her hands off from Susan's shoulders): Yeah... It didn't work well. I end up making a big mistake on one of the editions and my brother had no choice but to fire me. Fortunately, when I got back here last month, this shop gave me this good job.
Susan (Sympathetic): And it's working well?
Woman: You know it! (Notices Luna in confusion) I thought you had a boy. What happened?
Susan (Realizes it): Oh right! Baylee, this is my adopted daughter Luna. Luna, this is my best friend Baylee.
Luna: Sup' Baylee!
Baylee: Nice to meet you, Luna. (Looks back to Susan) It now shows proof of what you changed in your life.
Susan: True. I have to an adopted son that came with her. It's actually with my husband and my son.
Baylee: Ok. That's good Now to the point: What I can do for you?
Susan: We were looking for a purple guitar... That is right, Luna?
Luna: Yes, mom.
Baylee (Takes her smartphone to check the stock): Okay... In what type?
Luna: An electric bass one, please.
Baylee (Typing on the smartphone): Right... (Gets something) Ah ha! I still have one. One minute.
Baylee goes away as Luna and Susan wait for her.
Susan (Curious): May I ask something?
Luna: Sure.
Susan: How did you get this talent?
Luna (Smiles): Well... I got when I was at my first concert. It was good to listen, soo at home, I tried to sing and... I was doing well. My mom said that my singing even helped my brother and the younger siblings, except two of them, sleeping.
Susan (Suprised): That's surely fantastic! I think that was destined to you get this talent.
Luna (Smiles more): Thanks, mom.
Susan: By the way, what is your idol?
Luna: Easy: Mick Swagger.
Susan (Suprised again): Really? I heard from him. I'm not saying that I'm a fan but I like his songs.
Luna: Good! That is something we have in common, now!
Then, when Luna finished that sentence, Baylee came back with a purple guitar.
Baylee: And here is! (Shows better to Luna) Does Hou want to try?
Luna takes the guitar and plays a little on it. It made something enjoyable. It gives a mix of the sensation of fun and of having a happy day. It made too her foot starting to hit the floor by the rhythm. It took a while to finish it and some claps of five or six costumers made her happier than being herself on that contest show. It was the first time that she made music after these almost two months.
Susan: (Clapping): That was good, sweetie! (Looks to Baylee) How much it costs?
Baylee: This one costs 92,89$.
Susan: That is costly. But I still can have the money for it! (While she gives the money to her best friend) You are happy, Luna?
Luna: Yes. I am. I'm clearly happy.
Trimat, 11:52 AM
After these two moments of shopping, they meet each other to find the rest. It was bought two laptops, school stuff and now, they are going Trimat, to buy some clothes for the two adopted kids. In the middle of buying stuff, Luna and George are talking to each other.
George: And that's how it happens.
Luna (Chuckles): That is no surprise. Little Bro is like that.
George: It's funny. You even chuckle about that.
Luna: That is right, Little Brother.
George (Raising an eyebrow): "Little brother"?
Luna (Smiles): I always call Lincoln of little bro, soo to not confuse anyone of what brother I'm talking about, I call you of the extended version of " bro".
George (Understanding): Not bad thinking of a nickname. (Gets an idea) How about I create a nickname for you?
Luna (Shows her hands): It's your decision, George!
George: Alright. (Try to think something) Mmmm... How about... Lunes? It's good to use your name as template.
Luna: Sorry dude. That name is already taken.
George: From who? Lincoln? (Luna shakes her head) Any other relative of your old family? (She shakes her head again) Friends? (She shakes the head for the third time) Boyfriend?
Luna (Gets nervous and rubs her back): Uh... You need to change the gender.
George (Gets wide eyes): Girlfriend? (Luna nods her head) Ok. Now... How about... Rocker? (Changes his mind) No... Very basic. How about... Ah ha! I have a decent nickname: Luna Swag.
Luna: May I ask why that?
George: You told me that you love Mick Swagger, right?
Luna (Slowly getting to the point): Yes...
George: With that, I took the part of "Swag" from Swagger. Got the idea?
Luna (Understanding): Yes! I got it! That's actually a good idea.
George: Thanks. But don't tell my mom: It's similar to her nickname's template from a friend.
Luna chuckles at that. They continue to find clothes to Lincoln and Luna. In that, the white-haired got 3 orange polos, 2 orange t-shirts, 2 white t-shirts, 2 blue pants, and 1 black pant. As for Luna, she got 3 purple t-shirts, 1 black t-shirt, 2 purple jumpers, 1 black hoodie, 2 black pants, and 1 purple skirt. Of course, they bought underwear and new pajamas (They slept just with underwear and a t-shirt if you're asking) but it's not necessary to tell it.
After that, they got to a shoe shop. Lincoln was 2 pair of white tennis and 1 pair of black shoes. As for Luna, she got 3 purple boots and 1 black tennis. After all of this shopping, it was 12:57. Since it was close to the lunchtime, they got to a restaurant. And the chosen one was the one of AKEO. Sure, it is a furniture huge store but they give two food services there, in the two-floor shop. In the first floor, it's a barroom where you can order to lunch some tasty hot dogs or pizzas. As for the second floor, there was an actual restaurant. And that is the place where the family is going.
When they got there, Richard and Luna were requested to conserve a table to them to have a spot to eat. Thirty-five minutes later, the family was, right now, eating some mashed potatoes with meatballs. During the eating, they were talking a little more.
Lincoln: And that's why Lynn Sr. made our neighbor to fake that he was robbed.
Susan (Suprised): Ok, I agree that you need to close the door and windows for safety but that was very exaggerated. And how your neighbor accepted helping him?
Luna (Putting a portion of meatball on her mouth): To say the truth, it was effortless just for our ex dad's cooking.
George (Drinking a little of cola): That's funny. And for curiosity: How much adventures you have in your memories?
Lincoln (Picking a meatball): 20 times more than this meatball. Thanks to what my and Luna's family are based about: Chaos.
George: And that is usual for your family?
Luna and Lincoln (Nodding): Yes!
Oliver (Snickers): Well... Now I comprehend why your surname is Loud.
Everyone else snickers too at that. Ah... Laughing with your family... How much time the white-haired boy and the rocker girl didn't laugh with anyone except themselves... In the middle, the mother gets an idea from nowhere.
Susan: Hey, before we go back home, you want to see some things in a shop?
Lincoln and Luna (Curious): What shop?
Susan: It's called Flying Lion.
George (Gets happy): Oh yeah! I and my parents go there when we have nothing more to do here.
Susan: It's almost all the times, son.
George: I know.
The two adopted kids give a moment to think a little. Then, they decide to go.
Lincoln (Smiles): Alright.
Luna (Smiles too): We can give a shot.
Flying Lion, 1:48 PM
After eating their dishes, the family goes to that shop. To say the truth, this shop never enters on Royal Woods soo that's why the ex-Loud kids never heard of Flying Lion. And when they entered, it was a new "world". There were many products and, unlike any other shop, it has only a pathway where you can find all the merchandises. In the middle, George called the new Websters to see two boxers that actually are pens.
George: Look at this! (Takes one of the pens) Time to fight!
The boy starts to make the "boxer pen" punch them. It ends up making them laugh and take two pens to simulate a boxing fight. In the end, Luna won.
Luna: Ah ha! Did you enjoy my victory?
Lincoln (Sarcastic): Yes... I really did.
Luna (Ruffles his hair): No need to be sarcastic, little bro. I was just messing with you.
Lincoln laugh at that. George smiles at this as they continue to walk with their parents. In the middle, Lincoln stop his tracks to see a frame where it's drawn people there to simulate photos of people. And to be honest, they look ugly. And that is noted by his new dad.
Oliver: I know what are you thinking. But it's not easy to draw people into a realistic way.
Lincoln: I know that. At least, it doesn't scare m- AHHH!
Lincoln scared when George appeared in his vision with a mug, in front of his face, where it's drawn an ugly face. In that, the brown-haired boy chuckles at this reaction.
George: Seriously? How could scare at that?
Lincoln (Sweating, still with fear): I-I-I'm not the most courageous person of all world... I-I-I even got nightmares from a scary movie!
George (Regrets): Ups... Sorry...
Lincoln: T-T-That's ok... Y-Y-You didn't know...
Luna appears with something in her back. Seeing the frightened expression of the white-haired boy, she chuckles at that.
Luna: Little brother, what you did to Lincoln?
George (Showing the mug): Oh, I was showing this mug in front of my face.
Luna (Chuckles again): That should be expected.
Lincoln (Sarcastic): Ha ha ha... That is very funny! (Normal tone and curious) But... What you have in your back, Luna?
Luna: Let's say that... We may need to start dancing.
Luna shows, from her back, a tiny party mirror ball. In that, Lincoln grins at that as George puts the biggest smile that any human being can. Or even bigger!
In that, the parents were seeing the tree kids having fun together. Oliver puts his arm behind Susan's back and she looks at him.
Oliver: I think that this adoption was a better choice than expected.
Susan: I agree, honey. I agree.
Susan kisses Oliver cheeks as the scene fades away during this commotion.
And there it is! God... Sorry if the chapter was not with the best quality but to say the truth, I had to take breaks to not stress myself on this. Fanfictions are for fun, not for real work, for me. Anyways, thanks for reading.
One thing is that, finnaly the app added the horizontal lines. Now I can divide this story in sections without adding "/TIME SKIP/" there.
Another thing that was hard is that I needed to add a bunch of parodies here since... This a cartoon and normally, the shop's names, the music names... Are parodies. Here is the list:
- Souls in The Sky (Spirit in The Sky);
- Tones (Bones);
- They Let Me Run Alone (You Let Me Walk Alone);
- Teto Rvet (Leto Svet);
- Kaila El Piqui Piqui (Baila El Chiqui Chiqui);
- The Fight Is Joy (The Struggle Is Joy/A Luta É Alegria);
- Peter (Fred, from Scooby Doo);
- Dcooby Goo (Obviously, Scooby Doo);
- Trimat (Primark);
- AKEO (IKEA);
- Flying Lion (Flying Tiger).
And there is all of them.
More: The part of Luna telling her new mother about No Guts, No Glori events, is part of an alternate one-shot story that I'm going to publish soon. Also, from Lincoln telling Cereal Offender events to George and his dad, the part of being angry at his old mother, is from an alternate ending of the episode that I'm planning to do too.
Thanks again for reading and I see you soon!
