Once upon a time, in a faraway, unknown kingdom far away in an unknown place far away, there lived a group of powerful sorceress sisters who want to take control of the world. One sorceress came from the sun, Feisty. One came from the moon, Noisy. One came from the wind, Witty. And one came from the wind, Sturdy. They were La'ud sisters, and they were very greedy for control and power. But most of all, they were after the greatest treasure, the precious baby Lincoln.
Yet, baby Lincoln is with the care of the lost sorceress sister, Leni, who came from a dimension that her sisters never knew. She is special, caring, lovable and beautiful. She is a lover of all creature and the giver of love. She may not be even called a sorceress but a fairy queen. While the sisters see the precious baby with richness, Leni sees the baby with love.
One time, when Leni was asleep, Sturdy bursts through Leni's home in the forest and takes baby Lincoln from his cradle. Leni tries to catch Lincoln but Sturdy's playful natures gets the best of her. The brave fairy runs through the meadows to chase Sturdy and rescue Lincoln. But with the combined forces from Fiesty's hotness, Noisy's noisiness and Witty's galling bombs, Leni lost him.
Poor Leni felt weak from losing to Sturdy, but most of all, to losing precious baby Lincoln. But being a fairy with a good heart, her spirits were lifted up and they made her fly to the secret lair of the sorceress sisters.
At the lair, which is so dark that a firefly cannot light up, Leni used her smile and her heart to become the light that will guide her way. And there, she found precious Lincoln in a cage and surrounded by the harsh presence of the sisters. Their fangs are sharp. Their claws are pointy. Their growls are loud. Their gnarling looks scary. And their eyes see evil.
By this way, Leni panicked because she sees the menacing menace from the faces of the sisters. She knew that their scary selves are a big weapon. And baby Lincoln is afraid. She tried to find a weapon. And then she thought of something. If her love became light, she can make the light a weapon since the sorceress sisters don't like love.
Now, in a new battle dress, made out of yellow roses and blue sunflowers, Leni floats to the sisters and uses her love, her hugs and her grace to fend off the sisters. Speaking of the sisters, the troll-looking sorceresses feel burnt and painful from the "love" and they ran away from her, going to their mommy troll. But thankfully, they left behind precious baby Lincoln.
She then releases him from the bastardly clutches of the bars and carries him away back to the forest where they belong. Baby Lincoln felt proud and safe in Leni's arms. They return to the forest, and all the creatures celebrate. And one prince charming blooms out of the flower and praises Leni for her bravery and love. And they all leave happily ever after.
"And that's a good memory I have with Lincoln," Leni concludes her story. "The end."
But her brother and sisters have their jaws drop to what Leni shared. Lynn, speaking on behalf of the befuddled siblings, says otherwise, "Leni, aren't we supposed to be sharing memories of Lincoln, not your self-insert fanfics?"
"Uhmmm, I don't know what fanfics are, but yes?" Leni answer hesitantly.
"Then share a memory!" Lynn berates her sister.
"I did. I did share a memory," Leni defends.
"Was it a memory or was it a memory to a dream?" Luna asks.
"Maybe. Or I don't know. If it was a dream, then I should be asleep already."
"Man, why do we need to literally count on Leni to recall her memories?" Lori retorts, "She cannot even recall the last tee she bought."
"I do! It was Lipton." And just at that response, Lori facepalms.
But Luan laughs at it. "Ohhh I got that one! Hahahaha!"
"Though, if I have to be honest, her vocabulary needs work," Lucy comments, "But I like her story."
"You sure have weird tastes in fiction," Lynn responds, "Is there anything I missed from you Lucy?"
"None of your business, Lynn," the 8-year-old goth replies, "Though the half-burnt mangas and soaked paperbacks should have given you a clue."
"Ahhh…I don't read, in case you might now," the sports junkie emphasizes.
"That's why book so miserable. Hehe. Get it?" Luan jokes, to everyone's exasperation.
"Look Leni, what we have been doing is tell real stories when we were kids," Luna firmly explains.
"I know what I told is real," Leni points out.
"Real to you? Or happened in real life?" Luna raises.
"I…I…I don't know anymore," the 16-year-old utters in a quitting tone, "I think they were real. But I think talking dolphins with capes and who do rap battles might also be real."
Even amidst the ignorance, Lincoln sympathizes with his sister's efforts to contribute a story from his infant years. "Leni, I know your heart. I know you can remember something from the past, when I was a little baby. Come on. Anything."
"Forget it Lincoln," Lori says, "Leni cannot pick up the pieces. She can't even make up her mind if what she told was real or not."
But when Lori spouted the words "make up", Leni receive a certain recollection of memories involving makeup with Lincoln. And from there, she takes the first step on memory lane. "Makeup? That's it. I think I might remember something."
"Yes, we know Leni," Lori replies, "You forgot to put some blush on." She then hands her blush kit to Leni. "Here you go."
"No, not that makeup!" Leni emphasizes. She cannot help but feel excited having to remember something from the long past. "I think I just remembered something about dressing up and putting makeup to cutie-patootie baby Lincoln."
Okay, there was this one time when I went to mom's room to get her dress for playtime. I always love her pink dress. It keeps me alive and believe that I could be a princess like her.
Then as I walk to the room, I saw something unbelievable.
As Leni opens the door to her parent's room, she sees a year-and-a-half Lincoln playing with their mother's makeup. He has blush, powder and lipstick on his face. He keeps tapping the foundation and the rest of the blush on the floor, thus making a mess.
"Ohh Linky, loving mom's makeup?" Leni asks her baby brother while cuddling him.
Baby Lincoln responds with cute laugh.
"Don't worry," Leni responds. "We'll get you cleaned, and we can play at my dollhouse."
She then lifts up Lincoln and brings her to the room for a little makeover.
