"Rock n' Not Loud Adventures!"
Chapter 20: Several Things going down part 3...

(October 12. The Loud House, Franklin Avenue. Royal Woods, Michigan.)

Just another normal and regular day here in the Loud House, and Lincoln Loud is in the bedroom that he shares with his big sister, Luna, and he is not alone here. Clyde McBride, his best friend is here with him and they go through all of the comic books he's had for a long time, the comic books of Ace Savvy.

"So, why are we going through your comic books and stuff?" asked Clyde, then he sees the action figure of Ace Savvy. "Hey, the Ace Savvy Action Figure that Lynn accidently stepped on, a dang shame he can't deal out some justice anymore, due to a broken arm."

"From what my memory recalls Clyde. You fixed him with glue, and it's all fine with me" replied Lincoln. "Glad that day you helped me happened, and I am glad you showed up and helping me with this. I just... Things are changing and there is some new things I am now into, and I have my girlfriend to thank for that one."

Clyde then recalls. "Ah, right. I remember now. At times, you would have a movie night with Jordan at her place, and you two would watch something awesome, and it only happens on Friday nights or Saturday nights, or that time when it was spring break. I'm fine with it, and this change is alright too."

Lincoln nods. "Thanks Clyde. Glad you're fine with me and this new love for something else, and also the other reason why I am going through the Ace Savvy stuff I have had. Clyde, I think it is best that you keep them. I don't want them around anymore, because they just bring back some unpleasant memories." Lincoln sees the comic they made, called Ace Savvy and the Full Deck Gang.

Clyde sees this and he understands. "I know what you mean, Lincoln. The whole comic, was made during the time you're parents were around, and during the time when you're sisters were the ones we have come to know before all of this change. I can take it up to myself and keep the comic and the other Ace Savvy stuff. But wait, what about the detailed concept art you made of them?"

Lincoln then hands him the box. "Keep them, but I will keep this." He then takes the detailed concept art of the superhero he made, inspired from his big sister, Luna called: The Nightly Ace.

Nightly Ace – Wearing a purple Unitard with some velvet flannel patterns on her upper body with the Ace Savvy logo in the center of her chest with a bow tie. She is wearing a black skirt around her waist held by a white belt with the Ace of Spades logo. She is wearing elbow length purple and black fingerless gloves, an Ace styled eye mask, and her long hair tied into a ponytail to act as a whip or lasso. She is armed with a keytar which can make any instrumental sound energy blast and she uses her purple black laced hover boots to fly or float.

Lincoln smiles. "She is the only one whom I am proud of to make, and inspired by my awesome big sis. Luna."

Clyde nods, and then he takes some of the boxes and closes them, he secures them with tape, and then he recalls something. "But wait, Lincoln. What about Bill Buck? We made the comic, and it's been published, and with our names on it?"

Lincoln chuckles. "Clyde, remain calm. Look, the comic is something I don't care about much. So, it's Bill Bucks thing, not mine anymore. I'm proud of what I am doing now, changing for the better, and the time has come to "Deal me Out" from Ace Savvy, and to "Come together and Stand as One" with Marvel Comics, and also DC Comics."

Lincoln then has a box of these comics, from the Marvel to DC franchise, the comics are: Ironman, Captain America, Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman, The Flash, The Hulk, Thor, Aquaman, The Guardians of the Galaxy, Shazam, Captain Marvel, The X-Men and many more. From posters, action figures, and action cards of these superheroes, and even Lincoln's cellphone casing is the Avengers Wallpaper of the first film.

This makes Clyde amazed, and surprised, and then he sees some comics, and then he asks. "Lincoln, who is Black Panther?"

Lincoln stops what he is doing, and he sighs. "Clyde, that is gonna be hard to speak. Not because of the origin story... Is something you will find interesting, but the real reason why it is hard to talk about him, is the actor who played Black Panther in the film..."

Clyde is confused, and concerned. But he understands. "I guess I shouldn't ask, but I gotta ask this. Is it alright if I tag along with you when you go and watch these Marvel movies?"

Lincoln chuckles. "Why wait, Clyde? When we're done here, we can watch them. Starting with the film, the Fantastic Four." So, Lincoln and Clyde proceed to sort out the Ace Savvy Gear, and then Lincoln will handle the new stuff he has, and Clyde does notice the alarm clock.

"Lincoln, who the heck is that on the alarm clock?"

Lincoln notices it and he explains. "Thor Odinson, God of Thunder." they then continue to sort through all of the stuff, and Clyde will have to keep all the Ace Savvy stuff someplace, and he will deal with his dads when they ask him about this stuff.

(Later in the day.)

Luan sighs, and she has come back from a Birthday Party gig, and she had to do what she can to keep the smile and comedy routine up to please the birthday twins, she does feel concerned about the other day when she had that talk with Lincoln and Luna.

Last night, Lucy didn't bother to look at her or talk to her, and this is something that concerns Luan, because Lucy is her roommate, and she knows something is wrong with her little Goth sister. 'I guess they were right, I was so jealous, that I didn't know what I was thinking. I should be proud of the hard work I put into helping Lucy accomplish something, after all I did the same thing on my own. Lucy is a little Goth kid, and she has more sensitive feelings than Lily, I think.'

'I need to tell Lucy how I have been feeling after she got that gig at the Royal Woods Theater, because she deserves it for doing such an awesome job. She knows how to do poetry well, and she is no longer asking Lincoln for stuff that could rhyme with the other, and she tends to do that, since season 1 and a portion of season 2.' Luan looks to the reader. "You guys know what I mean..."

Luan then goes upstairs, but she does overhear some laughter somewhere, and she checks it out, and she sees that inside the bedroom of Lisa and Lily. She sees her 4-year old sister, Lisa, and she is having a playdate with Darcy, and of course they allow Lily to join them.

Luan smiles seeing this, her little sisters are having fun and for once, Lisa is not doing something crazy with her experiments, and she recalls the other day about what had happened when Lisa nearly joined some science group and she would become homesick and thanks to their caretaker, whom they see as mom, Michelle. She managed to ensure Lisa wouldn't make a mistake.

Luan then recalls, that she has a little sister to talk to and then she goes to the bedroom which she shares with the Goth kid in the house. "Hey, Luce?" she then sees Lucy, laying on the bed with her arms over her chest as if she is dead, and she tends to do that. "Hey, Lucy. Can we talk?"

Lucy then sits up. "Sigh, I know what this is about. Luan, I'm sorry that I've managed to accomplish the dream that you have worked for so long. I didn't know, and I wish it never did happen. I just... It was something big, and I didn't wanna deny such an offer, but then I heard about what you talked about with Lincoln and Luna the other day, I feel bad for what had happened."

"So, I wanted to wait till you get back home so I can call my teacher in poetry and inform her that I will not be doing the Royal Woods Theater speaking of my poem. It is better that way, I don't deserve that moment because it was yours. You worked hard to help me, and this is not how I wanna repay you. You deserve to be in the Royal Woods Theater, Luan. Not me... I'll call my teacher and..."

"No, stop." Luan takes the phone and she throws it out the window, and they can hear Leni outside yelling...

"Ow!"

Luan then looks towards Lucy. "Luce, don't do this. Look, this is all on me. I should accept what you have accomplished and not be jealous. I know that I won't be dubbed the youngest performer in Royal Woods Theater History, but I am fine with that. Because, my student whom I have helped and is my sister and roommate did something awesome and accomplished something amazing."

"This is an opportunity you cannot miss, and I don't want you to back out because of me. You earned this, Lucy. I am proud of you and what you have done, I know you'll be great on that stage and I'll be rooting for you all the way little sister." Luan then hugs Lucy, this surprises the little Goth girl, and she returns the hug and she has tears of joy and a smile on her face.

Unbeknownst to them, Michelle notices this and she takes a photo of this moment, why? Because she noticed that in the photo albums, she never sees a photo of Lucy smiling, or even hugging someone on purpose, and this is going to be a keeper. 'The others are gonna be surprised when they see this photo, and when the parents come back, well if they come back... They are going to lose their minds.'

Michelle then heads off to the living room, and she didn't know that Luna is in the dining room and she looks out the window and she is concerned. 'Dang, what the heck do I do? Tomorrow, Mick Swagger is coming, and from what the others told me at school... He's not just here for the concert he will be putting on. Either I do this on my own or...'

She then sees Michelle heard to her bedroom and this gives her an idea. 'Or I get someone with musical management experience to help me out of this bind, because we all know one thing...' Luna looks to the reader. "I am Rock n' Not."

A/N: Looks like Lincoln is done with the whole Ace Savvy gimmick and has stepped into an awesome path of superhero comics, and the conflict which is based on "Head Poet's Anxiety" is now over, but come tomorrow... Someone is coming, to Royal Woods, Michigan. I hope that you guys enjoyed reading this newly posted chapter everyone.
