What's this? An update that didn't take a month to come out? It's a Turkey Day miracle XD! But in all seriousness, school has been easing up a bit lately which left me more time for this, Dokkan Battle and Minecraft. So I've actually been able to enjoy myself lately.

This was a chapter that's been planned for a quite a while. Specifically foreshadowing future involvement with one specific character. I'm sure you'll be able to guess who is it after reading it.

Anyway, that's all I have to say. Hope you enjoy the chapter everyone.

Oh! and Happy Thanksgiving! and if you don't live in America Happy Random Week.


It was currently nothing but sunny skies and warm weather in Royal Woods Michigan. There wasn't a bad cloud in sky, it wasn't too hot or too cold. Overall, a perfect summer day for going outside and having fun.

And that was what the entire Loud family was doing at the moment.

All of the Loud kids and their parents were outside all doing various activity's all for the purpose of having a fun summer day. Lori was currently with Luan, Lucy and Leni taking pictures of them while they making finger gun poses, Lynn was juggling around a soccer ball with her legs,, Luna was playing her guitar and singing about how much she loved just sitting around having fun, Lily was playing with Cliff the cat, Lana was playing in the mud, and lastly Lola was sitting on Lincoln lap while the white haired boy braided her hair.

"Thank for doing this for me Linky." Lola said with a genuine smile on her face as she snuggled into her brother's lap.

"Of course, I told you I'd make time for you." Lincoln said sweetly as he continued to braid his little sister's hair.

Meanwhile Rita and Lynn Sr were currently working on the garden next to the house, specifically, pulling out dandelions. When Rita stood up to take a breather, she was currently covered in said weed. "Ich, I'm covered in dandelions." She groaned as, not only that, but her body felt sore from working on the garden so long.

"Well you look dandy and I'm not lion." Lynn Sr joked/complimented as he stood up, also covered in dandelions. However all this earned was an unamused expression from his wife.

However, everyone was interrupted from there activity's when they heard the honking of a car horn. Everyone looked to the streets to see a car holding luggage and having a family they didn't recognize in it.

All of them had giant smiles on their faces with perfect teeth that shined in the sunlight. There were two adults in the front and four kids in the back. The male adult was rather round in shape with light dark skin and brown hair that went down to his ears. He wore a white shirt with a blue sweater tied around his shoulders, tan shorts with a black belt.

The adult female was about as tall as Rita and had a lightly muscular body. She wore pearl ear rings and red lip stick and a white bracelet on her left hand. She had her own pink sweater wrapped around her shoulders with a white sleeveless shirt and brown poofy pants with a brown belt.

The oldest kid was a girl about as old as Lori. She had tan skin with long black hair and a teal head band. She had yellow circular ear rings, a teal sweater tied around her shoulders, a white sleeves shirt and blue shorts with two yellow buttons.

The 2nd oldest was another girl about as old as Luan. She even had a pony tail and braces on her teeth like the comedian. Her skin was dark and her ponytailed hair was dark brown and being held up by a light purple bow. She had pearl earrings, a light purple sweater around her shoulders, and a white long sleeved shirt with tan shorts.

The 3rd oldest was a boy with light tan skin, brown eye brows and hair with a mole on his left cheek. He had a white sweater around his shoulders, a blue shirt and dark blue shorts.

The last and youngest child was a boy about as old as Lisa who had a tooth missing like the twins. He had fair skin with light brown curly hair and square glasses. He wore a yellow sweater around his shoulders, a white shirt and tan shorts.

All the Loud family could do was stare at the unknown family as they drove down the street and eventually stopped at a house they knew was up for sale.

"Who's that?" Lola asked as she stood up from her older brother's lap, luckily he had finished the bradding. "They look so…so…perfect!"

"Yeah I'll say." Lana groaned while rubbing her eyes. "Their shiny teeth hurt me eyes." How is it that looking into their smiles felt like starring at the sun?

"I don't know, there smiles kinda creeped me out." Lincoln said as a shiver went up his spine. He couldn't help but feel like those smiles…weren't quite genuine. "Although it looks like they bought the Crowley's old house."

"Wow, guess we got another new family moving in. This neighborhood is getting livelier every day." Lynn Sr said as he looked at the house where the new family had stopped. First Wendy and Karen and now these people? Lynn Sr can say that the summer wouldn't leave him or his family out of new activity's to do at least.

"Let's put off weeding until tomorrow and welcome them to the neighborhood." Rita suggested as, while she did want to welcome them to Royal Woods, she wanted an excuse to get of weeding for now. But then she looked over herself and noticed all the dandelions she was covered in. "As soon as I clean up."

"On it!" Lynn Sr then pulled up a leaf blower and turned it on in front of his wife and in a matter of moments all the dandelions that were stuck on her were blown off, cleaning her right up. Well, except for her hair which was now blown to the side.


Lynn Sr and Rita, after fixing her hair, were now standing in front of the house of their new neighbors. Lynn Sr had also brought on of his famous dishes as a house warming gift.

As soon as Lynn Sr knocked on the door, it immediately opened revealing the two adults with big smiles on their faces. "Hi! We're your neighbors. I'm Rita Loud, and this is my husband Lynn." Rita introduced her and her husband to them as they all exchanged handshakes.

"Great to meet you. I'm Bumper Yates and this is my wife Jancey." The man, now known as Bumper introduced himself and his wife back.

It was then that Lynn brought up the dish he brought. "And I brought you a little housewarming gift. Some of my famous lynn-sagna" He said as he handed the dish to Jancey.

"Thank you. How nice. Though, we really don't do dairy." Jancey said as she held the dish in her hands. She was grateful that there new neighbors were already being neighborly, dairy just wasn't good for their family.

"It makes our kids sluggish." Bumper explained. "We could share it with the needy."

"Oh, won't you come in?" Jancey offered, stepping aside and gesturing to the inside of the house.

"Uh, we won't take up too much of your time. We're sure you have a lot of unpacking…to…do…" Rita was saying but was silence when her and her husband stepped inside. The inside of their house was already completely furnished with no cardboard boxes in sight. In fact, all the furniture looked really fancy and expensive. All in all…beautiful.

"Or…not." Lynn Sr said, completely dumbfounded.

"Wow," Rita chuckled as she looked over everything. "How did you do that so fast?"

"We don't like putting things off. It sends a bad message to the kids." Bumper explained as he and his wife laughed heartily, followed by Rita and Lynn Sr joined them with their own, more nervous sounding, laugh.

"Oh, speaking of our kids…" Jancey said as the Loud parents saw the oldest Yate child come into the room.

"Hey, Mom and Dad. Can I borrow the car tonight?" She asked with a smile that matched her parents exactly. "I have to be at practice and then my computer coding class."

"Of course Beatrix." Jancey said as she picked up to bags that had a box inside of them. "Don't forget to eat your protein-based before class, and your carb-based after."

The oldest Yates child, now known as Beatrix, took the snacks from her mom just as the 3rd oldest Yate child entered the room holding a trophy, a large one at that. "I got first place in the State Math Bowl!" He said as he held it up.

"Great work Bumper Jr!" Jancey complimented her son as the Loud parents watch in astonishment. "You can put that in the trophy room."

Rita and Lynn Sr watched as the boy, now known as Bumper Jr, enter the trophy room and set his trophy down on a lower shelf. The two got a clear look at the room and saw it was completely filled with spotless, gold, 1st trophy's and 1st place blue ribbons each having the name of one of the Yate's kids.

Just then the 2nd oldest Yate child enters the room holding a letter in her right hand and a case containing an instrument in the left. "I got the internship at the UN!" She said happily, holding up the letter.

"That's fantastic, Belle!" Jancey said, proud of her daughter.

The 2nd oldest Yate girl, now known as Belle, then opened up her case, taking out a fiddle. "And I finally nailed that tricky passage of Bach's Partita in D Minor!" Belle then proceeded to play out said music piece on her fiddle.

The Loud parents were left astonished at her playing while her parents applauded her. "Almost. But watch your transitions." Bumper told his daughter to which she nodded and put away her fiddle.

Just then the final and youngest Yate child came into the room. "Will you guys take me to my gallery opening tonight?" he asked his parents.

"Of course, Beau." Jancey answered.

"Gomawoyo!" He thanked with a boy.

The Loud parents gained confused looks to the boys, now known as Beau, words and turned to the Yate parents for confirmation. "He's in a Korean-English immersion program." Jancey answered, picking up on what the Louds were wondering.

It was then that all the kids left the house to go partake in their daily activities. As soon as they left, the Loud parents turned towards the Yates with Rita asking an obvious question. "So, if you don't mind me asking, how come you're kids are doing all of that? It's summer."

"Oh, we like to keep our kids minds stimulated year round. We wouldn't want them getting rusty." Bumper answered there question with Jancey nodding in confirmation.

"Well It's definitely working because you kid are impressive." Rita complimented, still completely astounded by the skills sets and trophies their kids have.

"Yeah." Lynn Sr said in agreement. "Is there anything they're not good at?"

"Well, we feel like they have to be well-rounded. It's such a competitive world out there. It's a competitive world out there." Jancey explained. After all, there are lots of competition in all sorts of areas, job market, music, art. Gotta have plenty of skills to outshine the competition and have a successful future.

"If we don't encourage them to realize their full potential, we're failing them." Bumper added. It was a parent's job to make sure there kids will have a successful life when they eventually leave the nest after all. "I'm sure you guys can relate."

Later, after spending a little more time with the Yates, Lynn Sr and Rita were now walking home. All the while there faces had an unsure expression on them as they kept remembering all the stuff the Yates told them about keeping their kids well rounded to prepare them for the future.


"So…" Rita began with her tone matching her expression. "They were nice."

"Oh yeah," Lynn Sr agreed in the same manner as his wife.

"WE'RE FAILING OUR KIDS!"


Before any of the Loud kids knew it, they were all in Vanzilla. All of the kids asked where they were going but Rita and Lynn Sr simply told them that they would find out. But that didn't stop them from complaining.

"Where are we going?" Lana asked for what was now the 3rd time. "I was supposed to meet the guys at the mud hole this afternoon."

"Your father and I signed you up for some extracurricular activities today." Rita said, finally telling her kids what exactly was going on.

"We just feel it's really important for you guys to be well-rounded in this competitive world." Lynn Sr said, quoting what Bumper said to him and Rita.

"Well-rounded?" Lynn Jr asked with an eyebrow raised in excitement. "Ho ho! You want us to buld up? Sweet!" She said as she pulls out a dumbbell and starts lifting it.

"No, Lynn. You're going to the learning center" Lynn Sr immediately said, making Lynn Jr go wide eyed.

"You're great at sports, honey, but to realize your full potential, you could use a boost in your academics." Rita explained to her 5th oldest. While Lynn Jr wasn't really bad at school, she had about a C, B average.

"But…It's summer!" Lynn Jr said in shock. Kids shouldn't be learning in the summer…well, unless your name is Lisa Loud. "Besides, I'm great at math! A TD plus extra points equals 7! But if you go in for the conversion, that is 8. Boom! Math!"

However this just ended up with her parents dropping her off at the learning center anyway.

"FLAG ON THE PLAY!" The athlete shouted in anger as she threw a flag on the ground.

There next stop was a ceramics studio.

"A ceramics studio? Are we lost?" Lisa asked in confusion as to why they were there of all places.

"No sweetie, this is your stop." Lynn Sr revealed, shocking the young genius. "You're great at science, but to be well-rounded, you need to embrace the arts."

They then drop her off before she has a chance to retort and quickly drive away. "YES, GOOD CALL! I WAS JUST ON THE VERGE OF CURING THE H1N1 VIRUS, BUT HEY, WHY DON'T I GO MAKE A COFFEE MUG INSTEAD!" She shouted in the direction where Vanzilla was driving in pure sarcasm and anger.

There next stop was the community college where they dropped off Luna. "What they hey, Pop Star?" Luna asked her father, now confused as to why they were suddenly set on making her and her siblings do all this dumb stuff. On summer vacation no less!

"Luna, we love your fun lingo, but to get ahead in life, it wouldn't hurt to brush up on your English." Lynn Sr stated, irritating the rock star.

"That's wrack brah!" She yelled at him in frustration.

"And Lori, Leni," Rita called on, making the two oldest siblings flinch in fear. "You'll be taking SAT prep classes. That's the best way to get into a good college."

"But I literally already have a college picked out." Lori said as she and Leni stepped out. She was already planning on going to the college in the city where Bobby's uncle taught, and nothing was going to change her mind.

"Please don't make me do this." Leni begged in a whimpering voice. She had to get through the toughest year of school in her life. And she still had more to go! The last thing she wanted was more stuff to worry about. It was summer and she shouldn't be worrying about this sort of stuff.

"I know you're scarred Leni, but this the best way for you to prep you when you graduate High School. We'll pick you up later!" Rita said as they drove. That didn't do anything to ease Leni's nerves as she now had a sickening feeling growing in her stomach.

"IT'S SUMMER. WE SHOULDN'T BE DOING AN EDUCATION!" Luna yelled as Vanzilla drove off.

The family's next stop was city hall, where they dropped off the family comedian, Luan.

"Life isn't all about isn't all about laughs honey. We think you'll learn more about serious matters by interning at the mayor's office." Rita explained to her 4th oldest daughter

"Well, mayor day be ruined, too! Hahahah!" Luna punned before gaining a blank expression and tone. "But seriously, I don't wanna do this."

Vanzilla then proceeded to drive over to a basketball court, which was Lucy's, of all people, stop. "Basketball?" The Goth groaned in disgust at the idea of doing…sports.

"We love how independent you are, honey, but when you get out into the real world, you'll need to know how to work with a team." Lynn Sr explained to his spooky 8-year-old which gained a glare from her that made him shiver.

"Of humans? Bleh." She gagged as Lynn Sr quickly drove away.

The next stop was a community center where they dropped up the pageant princess Lola.

"Volunteering at a soup kitchen will look great on your resume." Rita told her as they quickly drove off to avoid her usual temper which was bound to explode.

"You know what won't look great? ME IN A HAIR NET!" She practically exploded in pure fury.

They then finally dropped of the final sister, not counting Lily who was currently sleeping in a car seat with her blankey, off. Lana, who was dropped off at a Finishing School.

"Finishing School with teach you some valuable social graces." Lynn Sr explained to the tomboy as he drove off.

"I'VE GOT SOCIAL GRACES UP THE WAZOO!" She yelled, followed by a loud belch.

Now the two parents were driving with proud smiles on their faces. Now they only had 1 of their children to take care of for extracurricular activities. "Alright Lincoln, you're going to love what we have in store for you." Lynn Sr said confidently.

Rita then looked to the back of the car where Lincoln was sitting…and gained a deadpanned expression. "Uh, Lynn." Rita said, getting her husband's attention.

"Yeah honey?" He asked with an unchanged expression.

"He's gone." Rita said in a deadpanned tone.

Lynn Sr's eyes widened as he looked back to see that what his wife said was true. The seat where Lincoln was sitting was empty, leaving Lily as the only one in the van with them. The disappearance of there only son could be very easily explained.

"Dang it. We should ofhand cuffed him." Lynn Sr said with a frown. They didn't account for Lincoln using the Omnitrix to get away.


"Nope! Nope! Nope! Nope! Nope! Nope! Nope!"

Currently Big Chill was flying away from Vanzilla has fast as he could. He didn't care where he was heading, so long as it wasn't something his parents had planned for him. Especially after what they made his sisters do.

'Could call getting outta there.' Ra'ad said in Big Chill's head. Considering he experiences almost everything Lincoln does, he was also on board for bailing out of that ever his parents had planned.

"Yeah, no way was I gonna stick around for what they had instore for me." He responded. Big Chill had gotten rather used to Ra'ad being in his head. It was nice having someone to talk to while in alien form. Although he could go without the Amperi making wise cracks at every opportunity. "Who knows what they had instore for me. The Police academy, Military school, or worse…summer school."

'…don't see how that's worse than the other two, but, whatever.'

"It's a matter of Principal Ra'ad. Summer time, is not learning time." Big chill explained as he lowered himself in the air a little bit and turned invisible to avoid being seen.

'touché. So, why do you think your parents are suddenly all about this 'well-rounded' stuff?'

"Hmmm, might have to do with that new family that moved in." Big Chill suggested as he rubbed his chin. It would make sense, new family moves in, his parents go visit them, and then this happened. It does all add up.

'Makes sense. So, what do you wanna do now?'

"Let's just keeping flying around until we find something to…hey, is that…?"

When Big Chill looked down, he found someone he didn't expect to find. Currently standing outside of a store that had televisions at the window and writing in a journal was none other than oldest Yate child Beatrix.

Big Chill practically growled and narrowed his compound eyes at her. Big Chill was sure of it. It was her family that made their parents ruin him and his sister's summer fun. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, it didn't matter to the ice moth.

'So, wanna go rough her up?'

"What? No! I don't wanna hurt her or her family…at least not yet." While Lincoln didn't really wanna hurt the Yates, if this kept up with his parents…a little scare couldn't hurt. "Let's just spy on her and see what she's up.

'Alright then, your call.'

Going along with his plan, Big Chill set a course for the dark haired girl. Once he landed, he kept his invisibility on and walked towards the girl to see exactly what she was up to. The ice phantom saw that she was constantly looking switching looking at the tvs in the shop and writing, or drawing, in her journal.

'Oh…'

'What? What's up?' Big Chill asked in his head, making sure not to do anything that would alert the yate girl.

'Look at what she's watching.'

Big Chill rose an eyebrow in wonder, but proceeded to do what Ra'ad said. When he looked to the tv's Beatrix was in front of…he was pretty shocked to say the least.

"And here we have our most popular news story. The Royal Woods alien heroes." It was none other than the news showing various clips of Lincoln in various alien forms doing his heroic acts.

"Ever since the beginning of the summer season, the town of Royal Woods Michigan has been the hotspot for all sorts of alien sighting. It is still unknown where they came from, or even why. But ever since they had showed up, they made a name for themselves in stopping criminal activity and making Michigan a much safer place. I don't know about the rest of you, but I'll be sleeping a little bit better, knowing that these aliens are protecting us from evil doers. And now we bring you to whatever FOX is forcing you to watch if you can't find the remote and don't want to stand up."

'Way to make a name for yourself.'

'Hehe, thanks.' Big Chill said while rubbing the back of his head. But he then turned to Beatrix after remembering why he was there in the first place. 'But why is she watching it?'

"Amazing." Beatrix said in a whispery voice as she closed the journal, putting the pencil in the rings of it, and hugging it close to her chest. "I wonder…if I'll get to meet any of them." She asked her self while…

'Is…is she blushing?' Big Chill thought in surprise as he watched her cheeks turn a light shade of pink…after watching a news story on him.

'Hehehe, HAHAHAHA! Wow, you really do get around huh bud!'

"SHUT! UP!" Big Chill growled through his teeth, despite having a never opening mouth.

"Huh? Who said that?" Beatrix asked as she looked around for the source and the whispery sounding voice. Big Chill quickly covered his mouth and started to sweat in worry. He may be invisible but he still didn't wanna risk somehow getting caught.

Beatrix looked around the area a few times to see who had talked, but a beeping sound interrupted her. She reached into her pocket and pulled out her form and let out a small gasp as she put it and her journal away. "Can't be late." She said as she went into her car and drove away.

As soon as the car was gone, Big Chill released a sigh of relief. "That was a close one." He said as he flew back into air.

'So, teasing you aside, what do you think that was all about?'

"Not sure, guess she's just a fan. I've seen a few before." Big Chill explained, deciding to ignore the first part.

'Like Carlota?'

"…yes." The ice moth groaned. Ra'ad really wasn't gonna hold back on stuff like this isn't he? "So, I'm outta of ideas of stuff to do, you got any ideas?"

'…Wendy's house?'

"…Yeah why not." And with that, Big Chill was off to his friend's house. Thankfully Wendy was a cool neighbor to hang around with.


WENDY'S HOUSE

"So they really made your sisters do all of that?" Wendy asked as she hung upside down on her bed while reading a One Piece manga. Meanwhile Lincoln was sitting down on her bed and laying against the frame with some Dragon Ball Z manga in his hands.

"Yeah, it's crazy! its summer fun time not 'well-rounded' time or whatever they call it." Lincoln complained as Wendy simply smiled without a care.

"Yeah. My mom does agree that it's important to have a proper education, she does think it shouldn't be all someone focuses on. Even when she kept me home school, we still have plenty of fun time." Wendy explained as she sat back up on the bed. It was her mother that made her the anime/manga fan she is since Karen herself is a huge fan herself.

"I wish she would give me parent's advice then." Lincoln said which made him and his japanease friend start laughing together.

"Lincoln." Speak of the devil, the door opened to reveal Karen coming into the room looking at the Loud boy. "Your families' here to pick you up."

"Well, had to sooner or later." Lincoln said as he put down the manga and got off Wendy's bed. "Thanks for having me Wendy, I'll see you later."

"Bye Linky." Wendy said making Lincoln stop and blush.

"Wh-what?" He stuttered.

"I said 'Bye Linky' I hear some of your sisters call you that sometimes. You don't mind do you?" She asked with a worried tone and expression.

"U-um, uh, no! Its-its fine, just…gotta go! Bye!" Lincoln as he quickly left the house and ready to face his parents.

"Byyyyyyye~" Wendy waved with her smiled back.

Karen then put her arms on her hips and looked at her daughter with a raised brow. "Is something going on between you two?" Asked in a tone that was part worried and part scolding.

"Like what?" Wendy asked innocently, not getting what her mother was implying.

"I mean…never mind. Just tell me in anything happens between you to." Karen said before she closed the door to the 11-year-olds room.

Back outside, Lincoln walked to Vanzilla and saw that all of his sisters were back from there 'activities' and all had unamused faces on them, showing they did not enjoy what they did today. All the while his parents were frowning at him at the front.

Once Lincoln entered the family van, he quickly took his seat and buckled up and saw his parents were still frowning at him. "What?" He asked, crossing his arms, despite knowing exactly why his parents were frowning at him.

"You know mister." Rita scolded her son.

"You used your powers to get away from us." Lynn Sr adding as he started driving away.

"Yeah, sorry I didn't wanna do any of that pointless stuff you made my sisters do." Lincoln said in raised voice as he practically standing from his seat.

"Yeah, I don't blame Linc at all, today was totally bogus dudes!" Luna complained with all of the other sisters nodding in agreement.

Lynn Sr simply sighed and shook his head as he looked in the rear view mirror to look at his kids. "Look, we're just doing this so you all have a successful future in this harsh world." Lynn Sr tried explaining with Rita nodding in agreement.

However all they got were grumbles of complaint from their kids as they all averted their eyes away from their parents. Both parents just sighed as they looked forward. "Let's just go home." Rita said with her husband nodding in agreement.

The next morning, all the kids came down from their all rooms all having faces that were just as unamused as they were yesterday. All of them were very much not looking forward to what their parents were making them do.

"Educational comics." Lincoln said in a bored tone as he held up what his parents were making him read, "Don't know if this is better or worse them summer school."

"At least you don't have to spend the day making ceramic gravy boats." Lisa said as she held one up while wearing an apron.

"At least you can talk the way you want to brah. Uh, I mean, milady." Luna groaned in practically agony at saying that. Her teacher was very against the vocabulary she used.

Just then Lynn Sr and Rita exited there room, appearing to have just woken up and faced there kids with some rather good news. "Kids, what are you doing? Summer or not, it's Saturday, go have fun."

All of the Loud children instantly brightened up and dropped all of the stuff for their 'well-rounded' time and quickly went outside to go about having actual summer fun.

Now outside, the kids were doing more or less the same things they were doing yesterday. Selfies, soccer, Cliff, etc. Only now Lola was driving around in her princess car while Lincoln was reading a comic, although not Ace Savvy, Lincoln decided to pick up and read a Spider Man comic, he didn't know why, but it just…felt right.

Meanwhile Rita and Lynn Sr were just overlooking there kids having fun, looking quite proud of themselves. Just then the Yates came in all with their usual giant shiny smiles while pulling a wagon of small trees behind them.

"Hiya, Louds!" Bumper greeted as he and the rest of the family turned towards the Loud family.

"Hey there, neighbors!" Lynn Sr greeted back. "Got some fun plans for the weekend?"

"Yes we do!" Jancey said, gesturing to the tree's they were pulling. "We're doing some volunteer work for the city, plantings trees!"

"It's all about turning down time into well-round time." Bumper explained as he and his family headed off.

"Najung-e boja!" Beau said in Korean as he followed the rest of his family.

Just as they leave, Rita and Lynn Sr looked at each other in the same manner as yesterday.


And also like yesterday, before any of the Loud siblings knew it, they were now on the interstate wearing yellow vest picking up pieces of trash, all of them having either bored, or angry expressions on their face, in the latter camp was Luna.

"What happened to 'It's Saturday?' The only thing I should be picking up is my axe." Luna said in frustration as she violently stab the trash.

"You'll thank us for this one day." Lynn Sr said with a content smile on his face as he did his own trash pickup.

But just then, a car speed by driving over a mud puddle causing it to splash on land all over Leni who shrieked in response.

"But probably not." Lisa said as Leni raised up her mud covered sunglasses to show a not so happy expression.

"This. Is. The. WORST!" Leni shouted in nothing but anger and frustration, startling the others.

It was at this gained that Lincoln gritted his teeth and threw his crash bag, grabber and vest on the ground. "That's it!" He yelled gaining everyones attention as they all watch him walk over under a road bridge above the road to a point where on-going drivers wouldn't see him. "If you want this place clean, then I'll clean it right up." He stated as he activated the Omnitrix.

"Lincoln…" Rita said in a warning tone.

However it was all for naught as Lincoln slammed down the face plate and was covered by an emerald flash. Before anyone had time to react, two large streams of fire came from under the bridge heading straight for them. All of the Louds had to cover their eyes from the blinding flames. Once the light went out, they all opened there eyes to see that the interstate ground was smoking and all the trash on it had been completely incinerated.

They all watched as Heatblast came out from under the bridge dusting off his hands. "There, no more trash."

All of the sisters quickly cheered for their brother as they went over for him and clapped for the fire alien.

"Way to go Linky." Leni said as she used the heat Heatblast was emitting to dry up the mud covering her and peeling it off.

"That was a real burn, Hahaha, get it?" Luan thanked with a pun.

"Heatblast for the win!" Lana cheered.

Meanwhile Rita and Lynn Sr were having opposite reactions. Lynn Sr just sighed and lowered her head while Rita pinched the bridge of her noise in frustration. "That's not how you were supposed to do it." She whispered.

Snap! Snap! Snap!

"Oh cool! It's Heatblast!"

"No way! He's my favorite!"

Just then the Louds all saw that people have stopped on the side of the road, all taking pictures and filming the flaming alien while complimenting him. Heatblast smirked a bit as he walked up and waved his hands in the air, basking in the glory.

"Thank you! Thank you everyone!" Heatblast cheered as the crowd kept doing what they were doing.

'Kinda showboating don't you think?'

"Hey, after these last couple days, I think I deserve to bask in the glory, a little bit," Heatblast defended himself as he struck a pose for the camera's with Lola photobombing in the backround.

'Alright. Fair point.'


Now arriving back home, the Loud sibling all entered the house with proud smiles on their faces due to Lincoln pretty much doing all the work in a second.

"Way to bring the heat bro." Luna said as she ruffled his white hair.

"Gotta admit, that was pretty smart Lincoln." Lori compliment.

"Alright everyone," Rita said, still not liking the way Lincoln did things, making the kids flinch in fear in case she had something else for them all to do. "I guess since we got down really early, you're all free to do what you want." She said, making the kids cheer.

But just then Lynn Sr came into the house holding some coffee. "Guys, I just ran into Bumper Sr at the coffee shop, and he said they're taking their kids to the symphony for cultural enrichment!" He announced to everyone making Rita gasp.

"What?! Wash up kids, we're going to the opera!" Rita told everyone making the kids groan.

Lincoln panickly went to activate the Omnitrix to turn into an alien that would get him out of his. "Getting away now!" He said as he tried to activate the watch. But, he quickly saw that it was in the red. "Dang it."

It was then that Rita grabbed his wrist and pulled him to the car. "You're not getting out of it this time young man."

Later at the opera, Rita, Lynn Sr and Lily were contently listening to the Opera. "Do they all looked enriched?" Rita asked as the parents and baby opened there eyes to see that most of their kids were sleeping, not even listening to it. The only exception was Lisa, the young genius actually enjoyed the opera so this was really more a pleasure for her.

But it didn't just stop there. Everyone time the kids thought they were finally done with the day, one of the parents ending up running into one of the elder Yates which ending up in the kids doing all sorts of things that just made them miserable.

Collecting money for schools, seeing if the neighbors we're registered to vote, pulling weeds in various gardens, it just didn't seem to end. While Lincoln was able to use his powers to get a major speed boost on the events, much to his parent's disapproval, it could only go so far in the endless amount of 'well-rounded' time.

It was finally night time and most of the Loud kids entered the home looking completely drained and exhausted. "Can we please go to bed?" Lynn Jr practically pleaded.

"Of course." Rita responded with a smile on her face. "Jancey says kids need 10 hours of sleep for maximum brain growth."

"Oh well thank goodness for Jancey." Lisa said with both sarcasm and a little bit of relieve.

But as the kids were walking up the stairs, Rita noticed that one of them was missing. Specifically Lincoln. "Alright, where's Lincoln." Rita asked putting her hands to her hips.

"Night patrol." Leni answered. "He said he needed some action to get all of today out his head, and right now, I wish I went with him."

"Of course." Rita said with a deadpanned expression. "What are we gonna do with that boy?"

"Well, Lincoln aside, I think we deserve some R&R." Lynn Sr said as he sat down on the couch. Rita nodded in agreement and went to go sit with her husband as he got the TV remote. "You wanna watch that show where they reenact old movies with cars?"

"Do I?!" Rita replied enthusiastically.

Lynn Sr turned on the show, but just as he did, it was interrupted by a news report.

"We interrupt Cats-ablanca for this speical news reports." The announcer said as it cut to a scene of news reporter Katherine Mulligan at a forest Pier with the Yates with Beatrix having a Sea Turtle in her arms.

"I'm standing here with the Yate family who just saved an endangered Sea Turtle who had somehow gotten stuck in the lake." Katherine announced before reaching her mic out to the family.

"We want our kids to appreciate the important of protecting wildlife." Jancey said into the mic with her family nodding in agreement.

"Dang it! We didn't think of that one!" Rita yelled irritably.

Lynn Sr quickly got off the couch to run up the stairs to get his kids when suddenly…

THUMP!

THUMP!

THUMP!

"Hey,whats that?"


THE PIER.

At the pier where Katherine and the Yates were, the interview they were doing was suddenly silence when they heard loud thumping sounds.

"Whats going on?" Beatrix asked as they all looked around to find the source. All their attention was drawn to the water which was vibrating violently. Beatrix took a closer look into the water and saw a dark and very big shadow of something in the water coming up. When suddenly…

"ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAR!"

Just then, something gigantic emerged in the water. What resulted was the dock being destroyed and Katherine and the Yates being flown towards the shore. Luckily Beatrix kept a tight grip on the sea turtle, preventing it from being harmed.

When everyone to look up to see exactly what came up from the water, they had expressions of pure fear. In front of them was what looked like a mutated snapping turtle the size of a small house. It had four eyes, 6 legs with sharp claws, a shell covered in spikes, and its tail resembled a ball and chain. And riding on the mutant turtles neck was someone wearing an old fashioned scuba suit, preventing anyone from seeing who it was.

"Ah, I've been looking for that turtle." The scuba diver said in a muffled voice. The man got off the giant turtle and walked toward Beatrix, who was currently frozen in fear.

"Beatrix! Run!" Jancey called out to her oldest child, but she went unheard as the teenager was breath rapidly as she held on tight to the sea turtle her family saved.

When the scuba diver got to Beatrix, he took off his helmet revealing none-other…

Then Doctor Animo.

"I heard stories about a sea turtle appearing in this lake and I just had to check it for myself." He said with a wicked smily. "It should be fine candidate for my experiments. So if you would just hand it over to me peacefully, there won't be any trouble."

Beatrix tried to move her legs, but the fear in her wouldn't allow them to. All she could do was watched as Dr Animo reached out for the turtle in her arms which was now flailing around trying to escape.

And just as Animo was about to grab it…

"Not so fast Animo!"

Suddenly a barrage of crystals were fired in between Beatrix and Animo, causing the mad scientist to back away quickly and for Beatrix to snap out of her fear-ridden state.

Dr Anime stopped to look at the source of the crystal barrage and growled at what he saw. "You!" He yelled facing Beatrix's savior.

Beatrix herself looked to the side herself and her eyes went wide at who she saw. Standing before them was the alien hero Diamonhead.

"Animo!" Diamondhead growled back at him. "How'd you get out of prison?"

"That's for me to find, and for you to never to find out!" Dr Animo said, clenching his fist at the alien hero. He knew it was that same boy that ruined his plans the first time. Not only was this chance to obtain a rare animal to mutant, but also to get some long awaited revenge.

"Well it doesn't matter because I'm sending you right back there!" Diamond said as he turned his right arm into a sword and readied for battle.

'Really? That's your best one-liner?'

'Shut up Ra'ad!"

Dr Animo growled and walked backwards toward the mutant snapping turtle for protection. "Creature, attack!"

Following his masters order, the mutant turtle let out another ground shaking roar and charged at Diamondhead at rather surprising speeds for a giant turtle. Most likely a boost from being mutated.

Diamondhead decided to go for the defense and place his palms flat on the ground and made a giant wall of crystal in between him and the mutated animal. The turtle rammed into the wall and cracked it, but didn't penetrate it.

As the turtle continued ramming his head into the wall trying to break it, Diamondhead took the opportunity to run towards Beatrix and help the girl up. She saw he fearful expression of looking at Dr Animo and his monster, to one of awe at seeing Diamondhead at work.

Ignoring it, he took the girls hand and helped her stand up. "You ok?" He asked. He may not like the Yates all to much, but he could just tell something about Beatrix was…different.

"Y-yeah." Beatrix responded quietly.

"Good, now get away quick, protect the turtle!" Diamondhead ordered to which Beatrix responded quickly and ran to where the rest of her family were while keeping a firm hold on the sea turtle. It was at this point that Dr. Animo's monster broke the crystal wall and roared at Diamondhead.

The crystalized alien responded by firing crystal shards at the monsters face. However all they did as shatter against its head and not do any damage.

'Not working!'

"I can see that!" Diamondhead responded as he jumped out of the way of another charge. The turtle quickly turned around and opened its mouth wide at Diamondhead, who saw a bright light forming in its mouth.

The boy turned Petrosapion eyes widen and seemed to know what was going to happen as he brought his hands together and formed a shield in front of him. Just then the mutant turtle launched a large stream of fire from its mouth, hitting the crystal shields. "Fire? Seriously?"

"You won't beat me this time you little nuisance!" Dr Animo cheered for his mutant as he watched from a distance.

It was then that Diamondhead felt a something trying to crush him. He instinctively made dropped his shield and pushed up trying to keep whatever was coming down on him at bay. Turns out the turtle was using the fire as a distraction to keep in close to the alien hero and trap him in his jaw.

Though Diamondhead was able to keep it at bay, the turtles jaw was slowly getting the upper hand and the crystal aliens grip started to loosen. The turtles jaw was slowly closing on Diamondhead.

Uh if you have any ideas, now's the time to use them!'

'I'm thinking!' Diamondhead mentally screamed back.

'Think faster!'

Meanwhile Beatrix was watching from the sidelines in worry. The alien hero that had just saved her life was currently in danger himself and all she was doing was watching. She had to something. He save her! She couldn't stand around and do nothing. And just then, something hit her.

"Muzzle its mouth!" Beatrix yelled out as loud as she could.

"Beatrix!" jancey gasped out as her family looked at her in shock.

Luckily Diamondhead heard the girl's ideas and smirked. "Not a bad idea." Diamondhead said as he spread out his feet a bit. Diamondhead then used his limbs to spread crystals around the mutant turtle's mouth. In a matter of seconds the turtle's mouth was full of crystal keeping him from closing his mouth.

Diamondhead jumped out of its mouth and smirked as the turtle roared and flailed its mouth around trying to get the crystal out. "It's rude to talk with your mouth full." Diamondhead quipped.

'Booooo.'

'I'm not asking for your approval!' Diamondhead responded in his mind before noticing the turtle was glaring at him through all of its eyes. Diamondhead simply glared back and made a 'Come on' gesture with his finger.

The mutant snapper roared again and charged towards the hero. Right as it charged at the right distance, Diamondhead jumped up high in the air and landed on the turtle's spiky ball tail. "Now let's anchor this ship." Diamondhead then placed his palms on the tail and spread crystal around it in large amounts. Soon enough, large chunk of crystal was around the ball and chain like tail. And it was heavy. The crystal around its tail kept it rooted to the ground in sheer weight keeping the turtle from moving.

With its mouth muzzled and tail anchored, all the monster could do was wore as it was completely immobile.

"No! No! NOOOOO!" Dr Animo yelled. His plans, foiled. Again! By the same boy!

However, the mad scientist screams drew Diamondheads attention to him as he turned around and glared at him. Animo flinched and quickly started to run away but a wall of crystal popped up in front of him, stopping him. Animo tried to run to the left but as soon as he tried another crystal wall came up. The same happened with the right direction.

All Animo could do was back against the wall as Diamondhead walked up to him, still having his glare. As soon as the crystal alien as right in front of him, all Animo could do was smile and laugh nervously. "Mercy?"

"Um, no." And with that, Diamondhead slugged Animo right in the eye, blackening it and leaving him unconscious.

It was then Diamondhead tore of Animo's scuba suit revealing what he thought he would find. Another mutating device like he used the first time he encounter the mad scientist. Ripping it off his chest, Diamondhead threw it onto the ground and crush it.

What resulted was the mutant turtle starting to shrink and being freed of all the crystal Diamondhead made around him. And just like that, it had turned into a plain ole snapping turtle.

"Done and done." Diamondhead smirked as he dusted his hands off.

'Good job kid.'

"Um, excuse me." Diamondhead looked to the side and that Katherine and her camera man we're standing right in front of him with Katherine shoving her mic in Diamondhead face. "I'm Katherine Mulligan for Royal Woods news. Would you mind if I ask you a few questions about the battle you just fought?"

Diamondhead raised his wands and waved them a bit to try and get them to move a little. "Uh, sure. Just let me go check on something real quick."

Diamondhead then went past the news people and headed to the oldest Yate child who was still holding the turtle and staring at the alien hero with stars in her eyes. "You ok?" He asked in legitimate concern.

"Y-yeah." She responded, gettint rid of her awestruck face. "Thanks for the save back there."

"I should be thanking you." Diamondhead said with a thumbs up. "If it wasn't for that muzzling idea, I would have been toast."

"Well-"

"Beatrix! Get away from him!" Diamondhead and Beatrix looked to see the rest of the teen's family speed walked towards them with Bumper grabbing his daughters arm and pulling her away.

"Uuuuh, hi." Diamondhead said to the Yate family confused as to why they just did that. He then saw that Bumper and Jancey were frowning at him with the rest of their kids hiding behind there parents.

"Listen here you, stay away from our kids!" Jancey yelled at Diamondhead making him surprised. Meanwhile Beatrix just looked away and rubbed her arm nervously.

"What do you mean?" Diamondhead questioned, now frowing at the Yates. "I just saved your lives!"

"We don't want our kids hanging around such inhuman creatures." Bumper said making Diamondhead glare at him. "This place would be a lot better if you or your alien would just go away instead of starting fights every which way."

"Come on kids, we're leaving." Jancey said as she, her husband and their kids started to leave. Diamondhead continued glaring at the family and grumbling, but saw Beatrix turn around to face him and mouth out 'I'm sorry.' Diamondhead smiled a bit at her and waved goodbye, to which she responded with a smile before facing forward again.

'Racist Jackasses'

'Ra'ad!' Diamondhead scolded the ampere for his language.

'It's true though. At least one of them is nice'

"So about those question?" Diamondheads attention was drawn back towards Katherine as she was eagerly awaiting the interview of a lifetime with one of the alien heroes.

"Well, uuuh, the thing is I'm late for something. So gotta go, next for sure though!" And with that, Diamondhead ran off into the woods as fast as he could before he timed out.

"O-oh. O-ok then! Next time." Katherine said, a little bit discouraged.

As Diamondhead was running through the woods to avoid the media, the Omnitrix started beeping red. In a flash of red, Lincoln returned back to normal, thankfully without anyone in sight. "That was a close one." Lincoln said as he straightened out his jacket.

Just then he heard a rustle in the bush. Was someone following him? He quickly grabbed a stick and held it like a bat ready to defend himself. But what emerged from the boat was a snapping turtle smiling at him. Lincoln looked at the snapping turtle and smile. "Hey, you were the guy Animo mutated her? You ok little guy?" He asked to which the turtle nodded. "Good, now go back home, don't wanna make your turtle pals worry do ya?" He said while patting its head. The turtle shook his head in response and started walking in the direction of its pond.

Once the turtle disappeared, Lincoln looked at the Omnitrix and saw that it was still in the red. "Guess I'm walking home."


A FEW DAYS LATER

About 3 days later, Lynn Sr and Rita could be seen relaxing on the couch. They were stilling following after the Yates example of making their kids 'well-rounded.' Granted they still had to deal with Lincoln using the Omnitrix to either make a massive shortcut or to flat out get out of it. But they were doing the best they could.

Their attention was drawn to the door where they saw Lana enter with a stack of books on her head wearing a green dress with a blank expression on her face. "Hey, mom and dad." She greeted in an equally blank tone. "I passed Finishing school with honors."

And then Lynn Jr entered the room wearing clothes that were just plain nerdy. She was also holding a big math trophy. "I took first in the State Math Bowl."

Next Lori and Leni entered the house. "We just took our practice SAT's. My verbal score went up 200 points." Lori said while Leni came in after her making grumbling sounds that couldn't be made out.

Next up was Lisa who came in with a wagon of various ceramic dish sets. "Behold the fruits of my ceramic labor. 13 full plate setting."

After Lisa, Lucy came in wearing a basketball uniform with her hair in a ponytail while spinning a basketball on her finger. "I made the all-star team."

And then Lola and Lincoln came in wearing the same yellow vest when they cleaned up the interstate. "We cleared the entire interstate from here to flint."

Next Luna came in holding a large stack of papers. "I tutored some new citizens in English, then registered them to vote." She said as one of the papers from the stack fell.

The paper was picked up by Luan who was wearing a business suit with her hair in a bun. "I helped solve the city's parking crisis."

"Wow, guys! This is amazing we're so proud of you." Rita said to her kids. She was extremely proud and happy that her kids were on their way to having a successful future.

"What say we take a little break and get our ice cream on, huh?" Lyyn Sr suggested. After everything there kids have done, an ice cream break was the least they deserved.

"Sorry daddy. Ice cream doesn't look good on a resume. Especially if you spill it." Lola answered, surprising Rita and Lynn Sr quite a bit.

"Plus, it'll literally make us sluggish." Lori added, unknowingly quoting Jancey's opinion on dairy.

"Well, how about a trip to the movies?" Rita suggested, starting to feel a little uneasy.

"I don't see how that will help us get ahead in life." Leni stated, further shocking the Loud parents.

"Regretfully, I must concur," Luna added. "Now we must excuse ourselves to study our state capitals flash cards." And with that, the Loud kids all went upstairs, not acting like the children that Lynn Sr and Rita had the honor and joy of rising.

"No ice cream?" Lynn Sr said in a shocked and worried tone.

"No movie?" Rita said in the exact tone.

"WE'RE FAILING OUR KIDS."


"Kids! Come outside!" All the kids pop out of their rooms and responding to their fathers call for them and meet their parents outside, still with blank expressions on their faces.

"Can we make this quick? You're cutting into our 'well-rounded' time." Lisa said with the rest of her siblings nodding with her.

"Forget about 'well-rounded' time." Lynn Sr waved off with Rita nodding in agreement with her husband. "Forget about everything. Just go have fun."

All the kids gained surprised expressions at this. After all that, they just wanted them to forget about it and go back to having fun? There has to be something behind this. "Is this a trick?" Lola asked with a suspicious look and tone.

"No." Rita confirmed. "We're sorry we've been forcing all these activates on you guys. We got so caught up in worrying about your future that we forgot about your present."

"But what about college?" Lori asked.

"And our resumes?" Lucy added.

"And embracing the arts?" Lisa said.

"That's stuffs important, but there'll be plenty of time for that." Lynn Sr assured everyone. "You're kids. And it's summer. You should enjoy being kids in the summer."

All the kids cheered in response. Finally, it was all over. No more of that 'well-rounded' stuff. They could finally do what kids we're meant to do in the summer. Have fun until you drained yourself dry. And that's exactly what they all did.

All the Loud family went back to what they loved to do. Lincoln reading comics, Lola in her car, Lana in the mud, Lily playing with Geo, Lynn Jr playing soccer, Lisa with her science equipment, Luna shredding on her axe, and Lori taking pictures of Lucy, Leni and Luan…only Luan was slowly lowering a fake spider to Leni.

"Leni, there's ah…whatever." Lori simply decided to just let it happen as she smiled and readied her camera for an instant upload. "Say hi to the internet!"

"AAAAAHHH! SPIDER!"

Meanwhile the Loud parents were watching their children contently. This is what their children should be doing. Just being themselves and having fun. They knew they would be ok for the future, one way or another.

Just then, the Yate family came walking by with their signature smiles, and stopped to greet their neighbors. "Hey, Louds." Bumper greeted. Lincoln heard the man wave to his parents and narrowed his eyes at them. He still remembered what they said about what they said about him, indirectly although, and definitely wasn't exactly happy to see the family. Especially after how they influenced his parents.

"We're off to the postal museum." The Yate father told their neighbors.

"Learning about the past will help our kids shape the future." Jancey added on. "What are you guys doing?"

"Just having fun." Lynn Sr said in a nonchalant manner.

"Fun?" Bumper asked with a slightly puzzled expression. "What's the purpose of that?" It just didn't seem like fun would help any kid prepare for the future. So what would be the point?

"Well, we think that in this competitive world, it's good to let kids unwind a little." Rita explained with her husband nodding in agreement.

"Huh, we never thought of that one." Jancey said, put a finger to her chin with a thoughtful expression.

Bumper then checked his watched. "I guess if we switch from the 12 o'clock tour to the 12:15 tour, we can squeeze in…seven minutes of fun." The Yate father deduced before turning to his children. "What do you say kids?"

The Yate children smiled in response, but they seemed to be more…genuine and excited smiles as opposed to the ones their family usually had.

The Yate children ran to the join the Loud children in their activities. Bumper Jr was with Luan, making her laugh with Mr. Coconuts, Beau joined Lincoln in reading comics, Belle was currently playing her fiddle along with Luna, and Beatrix was joining Lynn in Soccer.

Meanwhile the parents were all watching their respective kids just having a fun summer day. And then Lynn Sr asked the Yates…"Hey, while the kids are playing, you wanna watching videos of old people falling out of boats?"

"Do I?!" The Yate parents responded eagerly.


LATER

A little bit after the Yates left, all the Loud kids were picking up there stuff, preparing to go inside. Once all the sisters were side that just left Lincoln outside all by himself. The Loud boy stretched out, breathing deeply through his nose before sighing in content.

Lincoln just decided to look around the area a bit, enjoying the sight. But, it was then he noticed something in his yard that he didn't recognized. Walking to the item, he saw that it was a journal. "Have I seen this before?" He asked himself. It looked familiar, but he knew it wasn't one that belonged to his sisters.

Then it hit him.

"Wait a sec, this is Beatrix's." Sure enough, this was the same journal he saw her writing in the other day. She must have dropped it while she was here.

Soon enough, Lincoln's curiosity took over him. He remembered her writing in this journal while watching news story about him in his alien forms. What was she writing in here? The white haired boy look around to make sure no one was watching him, and when he was in the clear, he opened it to find something quite surprising.

The first page of the journal contained a very detailed pencil drawing of Four-arms. The drawing was so food it almost looked like a photograph. But that wasn't it. The page was also detailing all of Four-arm's abilities and move. Super strength, high jumping, sonic claps. It was pretty much a full analyses.

Turning to the next page, Lincoln saw the exact same thing only for NRG. He continued turning pages and saw one for every one of his alien forms. Except Gray Matter and Loud-gax of course.

"Wow, these areimpressive." Lincoln said as he continued looking over each page. It really was pretty cool how she was essentially documenting his aliens. "I should probably return this."


THREE HOUR LATER

After waiting a couple hours, Lincoln made his way to the Yates house with Beatrix's alien journal at hand. But it did make him wonder. All the other Yates seemed to be against aliens. Granted not at Zed's level. Not even close. But still, why was Beatrix different? Hopefully he could get some answers.

Knocking on the door, Lincoln only had to wait a few seconds before it was answered. And coincidently, it was the oldest Yate child herself that answered the door. "Oh hi, Lincoln was it. From the Loud family."

"Yep. And you're Beatrix right? Nice to meet ya." Lincoln said they shook hands. "Anyway, I found something that belongs to you." Lincoln then showed Beatrix her journal making the Yate girl gasp and quickly grab it and hold it close to her chest.

"Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I was looking everywhere for this!" Beatrix said gleefully. But, her eyes soon widened as her face turned a light pink color. "Um, you…didn't happen to…look inside it, did you?"

"Uh, yeeeeeah." Lincoln admitted making Beatrix gained a panicked expression.

"Ok, Lincoln, please do me a favor and don't tell my family about this. Please." The teenager practically pleaded.

"Alright, Alright I won't. But if you don't mind me asking, why? I saw what was in your journal and it was really cool and impressive." Lincoln admitted. Honestly, Beatrix's drawings were even better then Lisa's.

"Hehe, thanks." Beatrix sleepily said. "Well, the thing is, my family aren't really fans of them."

"Oh really?" Lincoln said with a blank tone and expression. Yep, still remembered the experience.

"Yeah, they think they're inhuman abomination's that can't solve any problem without violence and creating lots of collateral damage." She said, unknowingly being extremely bunt to all the boy who was all the heroes.

"…Oh."

"As for me, I don't know, I just feel like there's more to them. I don't know why, but I just wanna do what I can to support them. I know they're doing good, but my family just won't listen." She explained, sound kind of sad about it.

Lincoln felt a bit of sympathy for the oldest Yate child and smiled softly at her. "Well you know what," Lincoln said getting her attention. "I think they really appreciate you."

"You really think so." She asked, raising her head up a little bit.

"I know so." He said confidently. And he wasn't lying at all to her. She did really help him out during his fight with Animo.

"Wow…thanks Lincoln." Beatrix said sweetly. The Yate child then looked around to see if anyone was watching, once she saw that no one was, she leaned in close to Lincoln's ear. "And between you and me, I'm kind of a Sci-fi nerd."

"Really?" Lincoln said with a smile.

"Yeah, it's a bit of a guilty pleasure." She admitted. "Well, thanks a lot for returning my journal."

"No problem, and hey, Beatrix," He called out, getting her attention. "If you ever need a place and person to talk about aliens with, I'm always free."

"Really?" She said with interest. Lincoln simply nodded and gave a thumbs up in response. "Wow, thanks. I might take you up on that when I'm free. I'll see you later Lincoln."

"See ya later Beatrix." Lincoln said before closing the door and walking home, putting an end to another summer experience.


Alright, this was slightly longer then I thought it would be, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. And I hoped you did. Now to answer some potential questions.

1. Are the Yates like Zed? HECK NO! While the Yates aren't fond of the alien heroes, they are nothing like Zed. They are essentially just Xenophobic. For comparison, they think in a similar manner to Will from the actual Ben 10 series to Lincolns aliens.

2. Will we be seeing more of them. Yep, I have some plans. I really hate it when shows introduce us to some really cool or interesting characters and have them rarely show up, or not show up other than for that one episode. It's kinda why I don't like writing about the popular ship, you know Lincoln x Ronnie Anne or Izuku x Ochaco for RWBY Academia. I like doing some unique. Fun fact, Haiku was gonna be the original ship with Lincoln when I was planning this fic, before I even started writing chapter 1 even, but decided on making an OC instead because I wanted to do something fun and unique.

Well, that's about all I can think of, so with that, I'm off, see you next time for a chapter where Lincoln spends some time with another family...

Next chapter...

"Time with the Casagrande's"
