Time to continue where we left off... Now, the "Fandom Pains" will be for another thing, maybe. But this will have the stuff that would proceed after "Gown and Out" and "Net Gains" but it would also contain some stuff that would lead to what is from episodes based upon them. Enjoy reading this newly posted chapter everyone.

"Rock n' Not Loud Adventures!"

Chapter 24: Weekend Endeavors part 2...

(October 16. Somewhere at Franklin Avenue. Royal Woods, Michigan.)

Sunday, and that means Monday is coming tomorrow, Lincoln is in the dining room and he is going through some stuff in his notebook, which are some plans on what he can do on Halloween with his little sisters, and with Jordan and Clyde, they did promise them that they would go to where they got that large whole chocolate bars from the previous Halloween they all had.

Then he sees Lynn Jr come down the stairs, and she seems concerned. "Hey sis, you alright there?"

Lynn then sees her brother. "Huh? Oh, hey bro. Yeah, I was just going through some stuff that Michelle told me last night. I don't even know if that will even work."

"Well, you know unless you try it, Lynn." Michelle comes out of her room, and she has her jacket and car keys. "Remember, just because they look lame and don't seem like winner material, that doesn't mean that they aren't capable of playing this game."

"You can't just think or see what they cannot be able to do, you need to figure out how their weaknesses could become their greatest strengths. Paula could see that, and if you two can think of a plan to make it work, then you might win this game. Just try and put this plan to work and see what could happen next, alright, Lynn?"

Lynn thinks about this. "Heh, I guess you have a point. I mean, what they can do is... Is an unpredictable pattern!"

"But you and Paula can predict it, and see how it could work" replied Michelle. "You have all week to make this work before the finals comes this Friday. I know you can make this work, and then when the time comes... The big win, you're Lynn Loud Jr. You can make this happen, you can be a team player, and together with the team, be Basket Ball All-Stars."

Lynn turns red hearing that. "Yeah, I guess we can. Let's go and do this thing!" She then leaves the house, with Michelle following. Michelle does wave to Lincoln and he waves back. Lincoln does see the red Ferrari leave. Then Luna comes over.

"Saw and heard everything, looks like Mom is laying down some good advice for Lynn, because she will need it. I mean, it can't always be about her. The whole team is important, and it can't just have an all-star player, when every one of them can be the best at what they can do."

Lincoln looks to his sister and he grins. "Whoa, sis. You know how the sports thing works?"

Luna chuckles and then she explains. "Yeah, pretty much. I mean, the band and I did perform for their Foot Ball game in the High School and we heard their tactics and words of motivation and those words I spoke are the words of the Foot Ball Team coach, and they are very motivating."

Just then Luan comes down the stairs, and she has her birthday things. "Luan? You got a birthday gig today?"

"Yup." Luan puts on her helmet. "I can handle this guys, my friend Giggles is gonna meet me there. Got this call from last night, and this is a big one. See you guys this afternoon, or something." Luan then leaves the house, and she goes onto her unicycle and she heads off with a wagon filled with everything she needs.

"Looks like a lot of our sisters are busy this weekend huh, little brother?"

Lincoln nods, and then he goes through his notebook, but then he sees this notification on his phone. "Whoa, check out what Clyde found out sis..." Lincoln shows Luna his cellphone and she reads what this is all about.

"This October 22, come and experience sheer thrills, screams and terror at the Royal Woods House of Terror, where it is awesome, scary, awesome, thrilling and filled with Halloween spirit awesomeness. Wow, they really like to add a whole lot of the awesome into this."

Lincoln seems excited. "Is it cool if we go there? Even with Clyde too? He wants to go and see this, and is the month of Halloween, and I wanna check out how spooky and awesome this place is."

Luna thinks about this, and she seems concerned. "I'm not sure, Lincoln. This sounds kinda, too scary for you. Remember when you snuck off to watch the movie called the Harvester? You got so scared, and I had to comfort you through three days, followed by some grounding."

Lincoln sighs and he recalls. "But, please. This is different, I mean this is not a scary movie. This is a haunted house, and it is obvious that everything is fake." Lincoln sees his sister/room mate with her arms crossed and a stern expression and then he has an idea. "How about you can come along, and also Jordan and Lucy?"

Luna thinks about this, and she sighs. "Alright, alright. Fine. We'll go, but we need to confirm this with mom. Alright, little brother?" Lincoln seems excited and he hugs his big sister, and Luna returns the embrace. "Just watching out for you, little brother, as always."

Just then they hear something crash, they both head to the backyard, and see the fence is damaged, and Mr. Grouse is on his lawnmower. "Oops, sorry about that Louds. I think my lawnmower might need a tune up, because she is getting too old. Darn thing!" He kicks the lawnmower, but it turns on and chases the old man, and he makes a run for it.

Lincoln then asks. "Should we help him?"

Luna nods. "Let's go and get some of Lisa's things, she might have something that can stop that thing." The duo head back inside, and would also need Lana's help to put that thing to a screeching halt before Mr. Grouse becomes lawn mulch.

(Later in the afternoon.)

The afternoon is here, and Lincoln is watching TV alongside Lucy, and they are both watching the series called, My Ghost Stories. "This seems suitable for us, since it is the month of October" replied Lincoln.

"Indeed, a shame that there is no new season of Ghost Labs" replied Lucy. "We both enjoy that show, and I respect how they wish to seek out the spirits within the house."

Lincoln nods, and he recalls something. "But there is going to be a new season of Haunted Asylum. Are you in Luce?"

Lucy looks to her brother and she smiles. "Most certainly, yes. I am so in, also thanks for inviting me to come to the Royal Woods House of Terror. I wish to see how truly scary it is, and then I can judge it myself, and perhaps inform of how it goes to the rest of the Young Morticians Club, since some of them have never been, I think."

Lincoln nods. "Luna was fine with it, because it would help if we had someone way spookier than what we are about to embark on... Hey, Luce. I have noticed something, it has been a while since you have jump scared anyone."

"Sigh, I only have been doing it a few times. The twins, Lynn, Lisa and Leni, and sometimes Luna. Mom, I mean Michelle seems to be the only person who has never witnessed what I can do when no one notices me, she has yet to be a victim of when I appear out of nowhere" replied Lucy.

Lincoln smirks. "Luce, it's alright for you to call her mom. Seems to be the new normal around here anyway."

Lucy looks down. "You are right, but I just... I wanna only say that to her when the time does come, even though she told me that she will make sure she talks to Lori and Leni about something which they have mocked me, and also I don't know what her big plan is with the show I am watching."

"Well, whatever it is. I know it will work and your show can be at peace for you and your friends" replied Lincoln, the door then opens and they see Lola.

"Hey guys." Following behind Lola is Lori, and this causes Lucy to get up and she takes her leave, and this is noticed by the eldest amongst the siblings. "Lincoln, sorry for not informing you, but I didn't win the pageant."

"Wait, what?!"

Luna also comes out from the dining room and she has a bowl of popcorn. "Lori, is this true?"

Lori nods. "Lola here accepted the loss. She understood that she has to accept one loss, and that it is a lesson that she can't always win every pageant there is, she was also kinda nervous when she was gonna go on stage, because she was facing other pageant winners, from around the world."

Lola then continues. "The winner was little Ms. China, and I am fine with her win, and also impressed. They were all skilled, talented and filled with the true spirit to win the pageant, and I am alright with everything now. One loss is fine with me, at least I got to spend time with Lori... But we are not going back to that hotel, ever again!" Lori also agrees.

This confuses Lincoln and Luna, and they both ask. "How come?"

Lori then explains. "Wrong Masseuse, the one we got was the one who deals with rough back sores and pains, and uses her feet. At least we got the sauna and hot tubs as an apology for booking us with the wrong Masseuse." Lori and Lola then head upstairs to unpack their things and see how Leni and Lana have been doing with them not around. Leni is not there though, she went to work.

Then the door opens again and this time it's Lynn Jr. "We did it! We won the game, now all we gotta do is hit the next one! The plan worked!"

Luna chuckles. "Let me guess, the advice and idea worked?"

Lynn Jr nods. "Uh huh. I used the weaknesses of the team, and made it into their strengths and the enemy team didn't see that coming, ha! They can't be able to predict when one of them could sleep, and some of them didn't wanna touch a sweaty basketball either, a bunch of wimps!"

Michelle arrives, and she has Lynn's things. "Lynn came, saw, sorted out the plan, and they conquered. See, you can be able to win it if you know how the team works, there is no "I" in team, but there is one in win!"

Lynn smirks. "That's true. Now, I gotta go and make a new plan, we might not expect what the Belchers can do when we face them!" She then heads back upstairs, and she has some conflicting thoughts. 'No, no. Michelle is not my mom, and she is not the mom to the others either!'

Lincoln and Luna however are happy that Michelle helped Lynn, and Michelle is proud to have helped Lynn try and make this plan work, then she looks towards Lincoln and Luna. "So, what did I miss while I went to get your sister?"

Lincoln looks nervous, and so Luna goes over, and she explains to Michelle about what is to come, which is the Royal Woods House of Terror, and this has Michelle confused, and concerned. "Wait, what?"

A/N: That ends the other two ones based on the episodes, bu "Fandom Pains" will be settled soon, and the start of what is to come "Jeers for Fears." I hope that you all enjoyed reading this newly posted chapter guys.
