Spells and Louds.
Chapter 877: The Cook's Criteria.

(January 14. Royal Woods Middle School.)

Seems like a usual day for everyone in the school and lunch is in progress and right now Lincoln Spellman is with Linka and the duo are both talking about more plans about the upgrades to the Vulture bike for the Netherdrake of Lincoln.

"Alright, so all we need to do is adjust the possible chances of adding the Vulture bike engines onto the wings, and perhaps Nel'Thorious will get a major boost in flight" replied Lincoln. "Along with control to fire missiles and armour piercing rounds, he has seen me in action on the bike, right?"

Linka nods. "That makes sense, but it would need some test runs, and it should be made possible by the time a conflict happens. We need to be sure we can see if the adjustments would work and..." By the time they arrive to the lunch lady, but she just gives Lincoln a small chicken drum stick.

Lincoln sees this and then he asks. "Chef Pat, what the heck is this?"

"Lunch, now eat it and get lost!" Chef Pat then hands a large one for Linka, and this confuses her, and so the duo head off to eat with their friends.

Liam sees the chicken. "Dang, that thing is smaller than the worst carrots I have ever seen, is this supposed to be chicken or something we don't wanna know?"

Lincoln sighs. "This has been going on ever since I became part of Middle School, she never even gave me decent food and gave me something that doesn't even seem like good food, and this sucks big time. Glad I brought my own lunch, also is she glaring at me again?"

They notice Chef Pat breathing heavily as she places one large chicken and it lands on Artie's foot and he screams from the pain, then Simon looks to Lincoln. "What the heck is her deal with you? Did you do anything to her?"

Lincoln then recaps. "No, nothing. I have done nothing wrong to her. I mean, what the heck I have done but nothing to do anything wrong to her life here. She's got some beef on me, and that is no pun."

All of them are confused as well, and so Lincoln stands up and he walks towards the Chef, and they can tell that this is about to get serious. The chef sees Lincoln and he looks stern. "What the heck do you want, kid?"

Lincoln then asks. "What the heck is your problem with me? I have done nothing wrong to you when I first came here to the school, and every time I have lunch here you give me something nasty and not even close to be food or at the right portions, so what the heck is your deal with me, Chef Pat?"

Everyone is surprised he stood up to her, but he is a Royal Defender and he is not afraid to stand up to anything that is bigger than himself. The chef however is not intimidated. "Ask your former family, Loud." She then takes her leave into the kitchen and this has Lincoln confused.

This confuses Lincoln, but then it hits him. 'Former Louds? Oh you have gotta be kidding me!'

(The Loud House.)

At the Loud House, we see Lincoln alongside Linka, and they are confronting Lori, Leni, Luna, Luan and Lynn Jr and so they ask them some questions. "Guys, what the heck is up with Chef Pat? She told me to ask former family, and you girls have been through Middle School before, right?"

Lynn Jr speaks first. "I am honest when I speak this, Lincoln. I did nothing wrong to her, when I started there she gave me small meat, and less spicy and I wanted to try the new spicy meatloaf Mondays and so I brought my own lunch."

Luan speaks next. "Her food was nasty, I never did anything to her and there was no pun about that dang garbage. She is the worst, and I chose not to eat there anymore."

Luna then recalls. "Nothing on me, kiddo. I was just my usual self back then, not into rock n' roll yet, and I didn't do anything wrong with her. She didn't give me much of good food, and so I went with eating in the music club's band room and steered clear of the cafeteria."

Leni also agrees. "Totes, I never ever set foot there after one week she gave me some bad food. Even if I was dumb back then, I didn't do anything to her. I did admit on complimenting her nice little pigtails, they made her look young and yet she gave me raw fish!"

They all look towards Lori, and so Lori has no choice but to tell them what happened. "Guys, I did do something bad to her, and that was... I spilled hot soup on her face on the first day I came to the place..."

All of them are surprised to hear this. "You what?!"

"It was all an accident, I wasn't seeing where I was going because I got my new phone, and I stumbled into some kids and the last kid spilled hot soup on her, sticky hot soup that was so hard to remove they had to shave her head, and I avoided going there for the whole middle school time."

"But, when I graduated from High School years ago, I went to confront her and I told her how sorry I was, and I even gave her this dress that suited her form and even some new shoes and some cash to pay for what I have done, and she seemed calm and alright with that. How come she's picking on you guys?"

This is so confusing. "Then, what the heck is even going on?" asked Lincoln.

Luna then stands up. "Well, if you ask me, I think we should pay her a visit and then get Principal Ramirez involved! I am not gonna just sit here and let some angry lunch lady treat my kid like that!"

"Same here!" Luan and Lynn Jr also stand up and they are ready to face her and see what her problem is, but then Linka stops them.

"Everyone shut it!" They all remain silent, and even Lucy who is sitting on the arm chair. "Guys, I think the problem is not with the louds of today, but the louds from the past, and I think I might know..."

"Hey everyone." Rita walks into the house and she sees them all here. "What the heck is going on here?"

Linka sighs. "Rita Willard Loud, the obvious reason as to why Chef Pat is so angry and upset. I mean, Lynnard Loud wouldn't have done anything bad, he's a good chef and she's a good cafeteria chef. So, the one who did something was you."

Rita is confused and then she recalled what she had said. "Wait, Chet Pat? You mean, Patty? She was my friend back in High School and here's the thing. I invited her to a graduation Party back then, but she never showed up. She was so rude, and I don't even know..."

"This story is not making sense!" said Lincoln, he then has an idea. "Everyone, we're going back to Middle School."

(Royal Woods Middle School.)

We arrive to the Middle School, where right now Chef Pat is done cleaning her station for the day, and then she sees the doors swing open and she sees who are coming. Linka, Lincoln, Luna, Leni, Lori, Luan, Lynn Jr and Rita, and this upsets Chef Pat. "Great, what the heck do you want?"

Rita then speaks. "Patti, I get how angry you are and all. But, I don't think we both have been on good terms, such as you not coming to the High School graduation Party which I invited you!"

"What?! You didn't invite me! You never did invite me!" said Chef Pat in anger. "You ignored me, you never sent me any invite, and that made me see that you were nothing to me!"

Rita is confused. "Wait what? Pat, I did invite you. Long ago, when I went to the library I saw you busy chasing down flip, and so I placed the invite into the book you were reading about Icelandic Dishes and cuisines. After that, I left to go and invite others."

Chef Pat is surprised. "Wait what?"

Lori sighs. "Well, this literally turned into total confusion."

"Time for a trip to the library" replied Luan.

(Royal Woods Middle School Library.)

They all make it there, and they are unaware that someone is watching them and seeing what is going on. Lori then goes through the books. "Here it is." She hands the book to Chef Pat, and the lunch lady opens it and she is surprised by what she sees.

"What? An invitation? You did invite me?"

Rita nods. "Yes I did, we're friends and I wanted everyone around the school to come and party. My dad even brought a hover craft, and we had a great time, and at that point I was confused and concerned as to why you never showed up."

Chef Pat now sees what she has done. "Oh, oh boy. I just... I am so sorry for this." she then looks to the Louds and former Louds. "Kids, I am sorry for that stuff I have done to all of you. I didn't know, and I thought that I would..."

"Be getting into trouble?" They see Principal Ramirez and she does not look pleased. "Pat, you and I need to have a talk, and a new way for you to repay the Louds for not giving them good meals, I cannot believe this was going on for so long!"

Chef Pat sighs and she understands, she then looks to the others. "Everyone, I am sorry for what I have done and I will do something to make it up to all of you." She then looks towards Rita. "I am sorry for being like this, I shouldn't have been putting my hate on your kids, well former kids."

Chef Pat then heads off to follow Principal Ramirez and accept what consequence she will get for what she had done, and the others watch this go on and then Rita has an idea. "Perhaps Patti should also get something in return, something she should've gotten long ago."

Leni and Lori know what she means, and so does Luan and Lynn Jr. Luna, Lincoln and Linka also know and they too wanna help. Well looks like we got something to setup for later tonight" relied Linka.

To be continued...

A/N: Well, that problem is done with, and now they can ease things down now that Chef Pat's problems have been dealt with. Now they can go about their day, and Rita has made amends with her old friend. I do hope that some of you enjoyed this new chapter.
