Spells and Louds

Chapter 405: Good friends coming back!

(Royal Woods, Gus' Games n' Grub.)

The Arcade is seeing some odd things around it and I don't mean the Pokemon. On the roof are Nel'Thorious and Shall'Cross the Netherdrakes and Dominic the Indoraptor is outside sleeping underneath a tree with some Oddish also napping next to him.

Inside the arcade are Lincoln, Linka, Timmy, Jordan, Clyde, Chloe and Jenny. The small group of pals who are now waiting for the return of their pals from their summer vacation. Also with them are some additions to their crew.

Christina (Former crush of Lincoln.), Richie (former associate of Chandler.) and Flat Tire (Once the friend of Poppa Wheelie.) They have a lot of things to explain when they're pals come back from their trips.

"This is it guys, our guy pals and gal pals are coming back and they have so much to tell us and we have so much to tell them" said Linka.

"Should we tell them what we did during the summer, or should we let them speak up first?" asked Timmy as he eats a garlic stick.

"Let's let our friends speak first and then we can tell them what we all did, and a good thing we didn't tell what we did yet" said Clyde. "Best to save it for when they come back."

"Looks like we have some other company here" said Jordan. They see coming into the arcade are their other friends, Tyler, Jennifer Shope and Johnny Test.

Johnny Test starts middle school with them, while Tyler and Jennifer advance a notch in Middle School, so they'll all be together in Royal Woods Middle School.

"Hey guys, glad we made it and we know about the whole meeting back with the crew thing and we wanna be part of it too" said Tyler. "Good to see you commanders."

Lincoln and Linka chuckle. "Tyler, Jennifer. We're not on the Aegis and we're not on missions, so we're all friends here, so you can just call us by our normal names" said Lincoln.

"Sorry, we're just used to being around you guys only when Hybrid or a mission is involved and thanks for the opportunity for us to be part of a squad of troops, the best part of summer is the promotions after training" said Jennifer.

"You two earned it, you guys proved so much from aiding us in all the conflicts. Even though some of them were weak and very much pathetic" replied Linka.

Timmy looks to Johnny. "You brought Dukey with you? I don't really see him."

"Dukey said he's gonna be hanging out with my dad watching a game show where they can call the show and tell them the answer and win prizes, it got so awkward when they started to argue for the year's supply of bacon or cleaning material. So I got out of there before it got super awkward, and so did my sisters and my mom" replied Johnny. He then looks to Clyde "Hey McBride."

"Hey Johnny, glad to be back" said Clyde. "And glad I brought with me my new friend."

"I'm just excited to meet the friends you guys have" said Chloe. Then she sees some kids coming. "And here they come."

They all spot their friends from before the graduation enter the arcade. Liam, Tabby, Stella, Zach, Giggles, Rusty, Polly, Lance, Trent, Artie, Joy, Kat, Cookie, Sadie and Mollie. The pals and gals of Lincoln, Linka and Jordan are back in Royal Woods baby, oh yeah!

"Looks like the gangs all back!" said Rusty as he puts on his shades, but then he takes them off. "Okay, kinda dark wearing these indoors."

Let's do a major recap on where everyone has been through the summer chapters of this story.

So, Clyde and Chloe were at Baking/Cooking Camp, Liam and Tabby with their family went to jolly good London England, Zach and Giggles went to Clowning camp, Rusty and Polly headed off to Detroit to stay with her cousins and help Rusty with some changes and Stella went to spend her summer back in her home country that still stands as the shield of Asia since World War 2, the Philippines. (This seems like I'm over selling it a bit.)

Mollie and Sadie with their families had a blast in New York City. Artie and Cookie went to beautiful Miami, Florida. Trent and Kat were at beautiful Honolulu, Hawaii and Joy and Lance were at lovely Paris, France.

"Hey guys!" said Jordan. She and Linka race to their gal pals and they have a group hug, while Lincoln, Timmy and Clyde fist bump and high fives their pals.

"Man, it feels so good to be back home in Royal Woods" said Rusty. Wearing a Green shirt with a yellow circle in the middle and blue baggy shorts with extra pockets and a logo that says. "R/S" and he's wearing blue and yellow sneakers.

"We have so much things to tell you guys!" said Polly. Yellow tank top, light blue jacket with a soccer ball with a soccer ball logo in the back and velvet shorts with a black belt and her signature roller blades.

"We already went to the farm and I'm surprised the crops have grown into something better!" said Liam. White shirt, blue striped jacket and brown shorts with white and blue sneakers. "Them Faunus know how to tend to farming and we sure are glad we have them to call as friends."

"The smell of the arcade and the sounds is what I missed, I can't believe I just said that" said Tabby. Hair is still the same, wearing a KISS logo black jacket, purple and pink striped shirt, and pink skirt with white belt straps, black leggings and white knee high boots and she has crescent earrings.

Johnny goes over and he fist bumps with Trent. "You two must've had an awesome time as a couple huh?"

"We did man" replied Trent. Still has glasses, now wearing a yellow and white floral shirt, crimson jacket with hoodie, blue jeans with an eagle logo and red and blue air-Jordan shoes.

"And it was as romantic and enjoyable as I could've ever dreamed." Kat kisses his cheek. She's wearing a pink and white floral shirt, crimson long sleeve jacket, blue skirt, yellow socks and black shoes.

Stella is wearing a white shirt with a yellow sun un the middle a blue jacket, black skirt with red leggings and red, white and blue sneakers. "Christina? What the heck? When did you guys became part of the crew?"

"That part is a long story, and I think its best we tell you that one now" said Timmy.

"We ordered a pizza for all of us and a big one with tons of toppings" said Jordan

"Cool, so let's start with why the heck is Richie, Flat Tire and Christina part of this crew now" said Rusty.

They then tell them the whole story.

Flat Tire – His pal Poppa Wheelie had moved out and also didn't want anything to do with Flat Tire when he snitched on him for trying to steal someone's bike, but Flat Tire was glad he was gone and decided to go solo. But then he ran into Lincoln and Jordan and they knew he needed some pals to chill with and he was accepted into the group and he also looks forward to making a bike and skateboard club in Middle School.

Richie – The former associate of Chandler McCann, has been busy with chess and piano lessons and after he won the Royal Woods Summer Juniors Chess tournament, he earned the respect from Lincoln and Linka and was brought into their crew. He's a nice kid and being around Chandler made him into a bad person, but now he can change into someone better.

Christina – Moved back to Royal Woods and ran into Jordan, Jenny and Linka in the mall, they had a lovely conversation and now she became part of their friends after she told them she regrets just shunning away Lincoln and that the whole video contest was as much as a shame as it was a sham.

"Huh, so that's the whole story to why you're a part of this crew" said Clyde. Still wearing the same thing.

Lance notices Chloe. "And who might this girl sitting next to McBride be?" Wearing a blue, red and white striped shirt, dark grey jeans and green and yellow sneakers.

"I love the beret your wearing, it's so cute on you!" said Joy. Wearing a purple short sleeve shirt, with a pink jacket and her pink bows on her braided pigtails and violet skirt with brown leggings, pink socks and black shoes.

"Hi, my names Chloe. I met Clyde on the bus to Baking camp and I'm also new in town" replied Chloe. "We've been competing against and with each other and we rocked it at Baking Camp!"

"Wow. New company in town is always welcome" said Sadie. Pink dress, periwinkle and white striped jacket, red belt around her waist, pink socks and blue slip on shoes and her hair is now a ponytail.

"Welcome to Royal Woods Chloe and welcome to the crew guys" said Mollie. She's still wearing the same clothes, she didn't change her look. But she is wearing a purple watch with a snowflake logo.

"Glad to be back with my pal." Zach fist bumps with Clyde. Zach is wearing a blue shirt with a yellow circle in the middle, light blue sleeveless jacket, a small blue flower to the right side of the chest, dark blue jeans and teal sneakers.

"Glad to have you back Zach" said Clyde. He then gets squirted by water. "And of course, Giggles too."

Giggles chuckles. "Nice to see you haven't lost your touch in knowing humor!" She's not wearing her clown attire, unless it's for performance. Now, Giggles is wearing a light green long sleeve shirt with a rainbow flower in the middle, yellow on the sleeves, blue shorts and pink socks with white and pink slip-on shoes.

"So, now that we're all here tell us what did you guys did on your trips around the world and the country" said Linka.

The others are confused. "Are you sure? I mean normally we'd wanna listen to what you guys did" said Stella.

"We wanna know what you guys have been doing elsewhere and we'll tell you guys what we did" replied Timmy.

"We've been doing mostly missions and other critical and emotional stuff, we wanna know how's it going with the pals and gals we missed hanging out with and how much fun you've all been having than we did" said Linka.

They all liked the idea of them being the first to tell and they know they're gonna be interested in what the normal things they did on their summer vacations. "Okay then."

The first ones to speak were Rusty and Polly, Detroit. The place is just as normal as it is and Rusty has picked up some new outfits and he does miss his little bro but always stays in contact with him.

Polly has been toughening him up so he doesn't have to be weak and scrawny when it comes to gym or other physical stuff, and both have been having some romantic and fun times in the city where Polly's cousins live.

Rusty and Polly stayed in a tall apartment building where they got a good view of the city and a quick look at the nearest pizza and burger joint, now that's a delicious view for the early morning.

Liam and Tabby have been doing their fun in London, though Liam and his family have a hard time trying to figure out almost every British and old English word around, they eventually got the hang of it and learned so much about the land where the English language originated.

They all stayed in a nice home in the country side, which is owned by one of Tabby's uncles who is in fact a farmer and Liam and his family are impressed at they're way of farming and how they handle the most annoying of pests.

Liam also got the chance to ride them big horses in their land, the hard part was stopping.

Zach and Giggles of course were in clowning camp and like Luan they aced it with honors, so it pretty much is just a camp for clowning and comedy acts and not a single peep about anything alien in nature.

Zach and Giggles had to bunk with two other clowns they met, and they are a good folk to hang out with and are also a part of a big birthday party gig somewhere outside of Saginaw and perhaps they can one day meet.

Zach and Giggles both have a big future ahead of them and clowning is one of them, though Zach would still pick alien observation as a lay back hobby and with Giggles, are both planning to make the clowning and comedy club in the Middle School.

Stella had a blast being back in her home town, she stuck with the normal Tagalog language and enjoyed the sights of her home, she did see some kids going to school which confused those students as to why she's not going to school. She's a tourist on a 3 month stay, she's not a student in the country.

She took pictures, tried awesome stuff, met nice people and ate the best food she could see. She mostly enjoyed Star City and the rides and going to historical places with her granny.

Stella and her family stayed at the house of her uncle, who happens to be the Senator of the place, Manila. She loves being there, and at times she runs into the man who leads the country, the guy who runs the joint and also faces the odds of anti-drugs and terrorism. President Duterte! Oh my, God!

Mollie and Sadie shared to them the awesomeness of their stay in New York City and they got tons of pictures to show them. They went to Lady Liberty, the Empire States Building the Hudson River, the Brooklyn Bridge, Time Square and Madison Square Garden.

But they did some kindness and helped with Sadie's uncle in feeding the poor and with Mollie's family they helped in the lost pets of the city. They did some kind and hard work just as they had fun, and made some new friends there too.

They even had a run in with some celebrities who were there for some visits and they got the pics to prove it. From Tom Cruise, Samuel Jackson, Arianna Grande, Michael Jordan and Angelina Jolie. Now they were all feeling the MARVEL vibe.

Artie and Cookie had summer heated fun in Miami Florida, the sun, the sand and the waves. She had to revert all of Artie's attention to her and not the beach babes, she was kinda jealous at time to time but she knows he would always fall for her.

They had a blast with jet skis and zipline, and they even went to concerts and took pics from sky diving. The most unexpected moments was when they spotted some cop cars taking chase to criminals on the loose, which they all had to be careful about.

Artie and Cookie with their family stayed in a luxury a hotel, they couldn't go and explore the reefs sometimes due to a sudden spotting of Pacific Lion fish, and they do not belong there. But they still had fun with the other sights and sounds and had a run in with Celebrity singer Pit Bull.

Lance and Joy obviously loved the beautiful scenery from Paris France and enjoyed each other's company. With their family, they stayed at a beautiful hotel which the Mayor lives in.

They trekked the tall Eiffel Tower and visited the Louvre, though mimes were one thing they did not like and they made Mr. Mime better than dealing with an actual Mime, they were strong enough to hold their urges not to beat the crud out of any annoying mime following them. Careful Luan!

They mostly had romantic moments, like strolling down the streets with other couples, lovely and fancy dinners and gazing into the lovely night sky of the city of love. Yup, a romantic summer for them.

Trent and Kat had some sun and watery fun in Hawaii and way too many make out sessions which they had to try and hold off. They enjoyed the sights, the sounds and the history of the place and they stayed at a five star grand hotel nearing the shores of the waters and they did see some police car chases while they were there.

Speaking of History, Kat shows them an image of her lover Trent wearing a traditional Hawaiian warriors outfit and he became part of a reenactment of the fight, turns out Trent's origin is also part Hawaiian, removed like ten times from the family tree.

They also said they spotted the Royal Fortress pass by the island and they saw the Royal Defenders and tried to call out to them, but they did not hear them. Too much naval noises going around.

Clyde and Chloe of course dominated the baking/cooking camp and showed that they are stronger together than they are alone. When it comes to knowledge of the kitchen and what to do to making amazing pastries and other fine dishes.

Clyde and Chloe had no bunk mates, but they were fine with it. Gave them time to come up with some new recipes, and they may have met some very competitive young cooks and bakers, what mattered was that they had fun. They did win almost every contest the camp had and became the ace campers in the place, and also rumored as the best couple cooks, which was awkward.

Some part of them feels like they were meant to cook, and they know there's a cooking and baking club in the Middle School and both are going to join it, together.

"Wow. You guys sure had some fun and meeting with so many cool people too" said Lincoln. "The others back home are not gonna believe this stuff!"

"Glad you all had some wicked cool fun and also spotted us, I swear we did not see you guys when we passed by Hawaii" said Jordan.

"We saw you guys and called out, but you guys didn't respond and it seems like McBride and Chloe has some Pokemon with them" replied Trent.

They see Clyde and his Petilil and Chloe with her Minccino. "Wow. They're so cute!" said Cookie.

"Thanks, we got them when we first came back and also Chloe is as good to standing up to my dad's as anyone else does" replied Clyde.

"Nice one girl!" Sadie high fives Chloe. "We're so going to love hanging out with you more often."

"Speaking of which, I heard the Mollie has a Purrloin, where is she?" asked Chloe.

Mollie chuckles. "What Purrloin?" She then whistles and coming in was the evolved form of Purrloin. "Guys, say hello to Liepard!"

They're all shocked to see this, but not the gals from Jordan's crew. "Whoa what?!" The Liepard goes over and interacts with the other Pokemon, they were confused as to how this happened.

"Okay, so as it turns out when we were in New York, some guy tried to mug me and Sadie and my Purrloin got involved and took him down and the cop showed up and tried to taze the guy, but he was strong enough to get the cop" said Mollie.

"So, Mollie's Pokemon deals with the man and uses razor swipe and focus beam and took him down and saved the cop from that man and his knife" said Sadie. "And that's when she evolved and also scared the crook, the cop was confused but we told him where we came from and he understood" said Sadie.

They all chuckle and clap and cheer for the Liepard who bows to them. "Now that is one cool Pokemon vs bad guy tale! Awesome!" said Zach.

"Can't wait to see how strong she is against me and Lopunny" said Jordan, her Lopunny also looks forward to a Pokemon battle.

Mollie and her Liepard also smirk. "We can have that fight after our talk about you guys."

"So, what the heck happened to ya'll while we weren't here?" asked Liam.

"I did hear about someone now being your house maid or something" said Tabby. "And also that you and Luna were in London last month too."

"I just got word from Social Media about a giant ice undead dragon flying around" said Lance.

Stella notices something. "Also, what the heck are you doing with Thor's hammer?!" They all see it and are shocked.

Lincoln, Timmy, Linka and Jordan chuckle and so do their Pokemon, "We have so much to tell you guys, and chances some of you might faint or get angry, like really angry" said Lincoln.

"Try us!" said Kat. They all wanted to know what happened to them and why it sounds so concerning.

So they tell them all the conflicts they went through. Phineas and Ferb, Aunt Ruth no longer alive, Mysticons, Lolirock, Ben 10 Reboot, their farewell to Steven Universe, Michelle Lewis being they're friend, The weakest battle with Snoke, Justice League Unlimited and probably the most dangerous one of all, the other Multiverse!

They are all shocked. "What?!" Yup, exactly what they were expecting from their reactions.

To be continued …..

A/N: Welcome back friends of the Lincoln and Jordan's crew. I would like to thank my good pal avenger44 for inspiring me to add Richie and Flat Tire to the group of friends, just like "A Sparking Relationship." Leave a review and tell me what you all think.
