We're about to see what happens at school with Lucy now in the picture. Chances the Young Morticians Club will want her back, will she wanna join them again or will she decline? Let's find out.
Helluva Loud Adventures.
(Royal Woods Grade School.)
The normal portal opens from hell, which everyone is now used to and Jordan and Clyde are waiting for them to come through and then they see them. Lincoln Silva Hound, the adopted son of Loona and brother to Luna, and also one of the most lethal assassins of I.M.P. But he's not alone.
Also coming through are Moxxie and Millie, and with them is their adopted daughter, Lucy Bingham Horvitz. Adopted by the imp couple and now a member of I.M.P. Sorta, she just stays and takes in calls, it was her idea and she even asked why her last name is like this is.
Her answer from her demon parents: Moxxie and Millie had a long talk before they adopted her and they came to a conclusion for the last name. So they came up with two names that seemed to fit them both and now onto Lucy as well.
Lucy looks to the school, this is the same school she went too from before and now she's back in the school. Lucy sighs and she looks to her parents. "This is not gonna be an easy thing for me to go through."
Moxxie and Millie go to Lucy. "Lucy we know it's gonna be hard because your back in this school, but we know you can handle it. You're strong in your own way and we know you can face whatever issues you'll go through" said Millie.
"You're education is important and this is the best we can give to you. You're 9 year's old and we know that you can develop thick skin of your own, plus Lincoln will be there to keep an eye on you as well" replied Moxxie. He and his wife kiss her forehead and are happy at how she looks now.
Lucy is wearing a white shirt with a bleeding black heart in the middle, black jacket with white skull shapes around it, her signature socks and black and white sleeves and black boots. She even has a black bat necklace and a gold ring with angelic marks on them, similar to what Lincoln and Luna have.
What makes her more different, her right eye is slightly visible, which means her blue pupil can be seen.
"You are just so precious with that outfit" said Millie. "So glad you picked it, makes you look so unique."
Lucy blushes and looks to herself. "I do feel different, but in a good kind of way and I think what you guys say is true, I can handle this and I know Lincoln will have my back and….. I'll do my best to have his."
"We know you will" replied Moxxie. They both kiss her on the forehead and hug her. They then depart from the hug and look to Lincoln.
"She'll be fine guys, I'll keep an eye on her as best I can, and I'll see to it my friends do the same" replied Lincoln.
"Thank you Lincoln" replied Millie. "Now go in there and learn." They watch as Lincoln and Lucy walk towards the school and meet up with Clyde and Jordan.
Millie wipes away a tear and she leans onto her husband. "They grow up so fast."
"They sure do" replied Moxxie as he pulls his wife close to her and he kisses her cheek.
"And I didn't have to carry her and you'd endure all the anger and rage i would inflict onto you" replied Millie.
Moxxie sighs. "Yeah, and that….. Wait, what?!" He is so lucky Millie was never pregnant.
(Inside.)
Lincoln, Lucy, Jordan and Clyde walk into the school. "So, you ready for the big comeback into school Luce?" asked Clyde. They fail to notice the looks from other kids who're looking at Lucy.
"I am, and thanks for not hating me guys. Even though I deserve so much after what I did in betraying Lincoln" replied Lucy.
"We know you were just part of something that was too much pressure for someone like you, you were 8 when it all happened, and also become part of the whole sister hive mentality thing" replied Jordan. "We'd never hold anything against you Lucy."
"Yeah, if Lincoln can forgive you, then so can we" replied Clyde. They then see the rest of the friends of Lincoln and Jordan. "Well, time to see what happens with them."
The friends go over and see the little Goth girl. "Hey Lucy, glad you're back at school and we know you still feel kinda nervous of some of us being angry with you, well we're not" replied Tabby.
"We totally understand that you went through pressure and we won't hold the incident with what happened against you, we know better than that" replied Stella.
"But the issue is that some kids in school might not want you around, but that's not gonna be an issue with the many more changes to this school, otherwise they'd be the ones in trouble" replied Zach.
"Sure as heck we ain't gonna leave you hanging dry when trouble comes a hailing down and be lucky Chandler ain't here either and his goons are no longer a threat and more of gentle guys who wanna make something good with their talents" replied Liam.
Lincoln is confused. "What do you mean? What's up with Dennis and Patrick?"
"You don't know?" asked Jenny. "Dennis joined the chess club and Patrick joined the math club. They found talent within them they never knew, so technically hanging out with Chandler kept their best locked up and now they can have a future that shows their talent."
Hearing that was making Lucy feel bad. "Sigh, like when we were overwhelming Lincoln with our talents and events and we didn't help him find his talent."
Jenny realized what she said. "Oh gosh. I am so sorry Lucy I didn't mean it!"
Lucy wipes away some tears. "N-No, it's okay. You didn't know and I was just feeling a bit more depressed than I normally am. I think I should go t=to class now."
Lincoln holds her hand. "Let me escort you Luce." Lincoln walks off with Lucy to her classroom.
They all look to Jenny. "Guys, I didn't mean it. I was just trying to tell Lincoln about…."
"No. No more talking" said Jordan. She then calms down. "We need to talk about what we say and think about what to say before we even say it. Might I remind you guys that Lucy still sees Lincoln as her big brother even though they're not all that related."
"Even though Lucy's parents are two imps, they count as a family with the work they do and that makes them cousins and not to be messed with" replied Clyde.
They all walk together and Jordan then makes the plan for them to think about what they're gonna say, this makes Jenny feel bad. Clyde can see that Jordan maing a plan, reminds him of Lincoln.
(With Lincoln and Lucy.)
Lincoln continues to walk down the halls with Lucy, he can see some of the kids whispering but he looks to all of them in anger and this makes them stop and walk away, they do not wanna end up like Chandler.
Lincoln then looks to Lucy. "Are you gonna be okay Luce?"
Lucy hugs Lincoln. Lincoln hugs her back to calm her down. "It's okay now Lucy. That was all the past and I forgive you now, nothing bad is gonna happen to you. I promise."
Lucy then wipes away her tears and she looks to Lincoln. "Thanks Lincoln, I know I want to try and grow some thick skin, but it's not gonna be an easy thing for me when everyone might mention what I have done to you. I don't know what to do at that point."
"Then tell me." Lincoln kneels down to her level. "If anyone tries to mess with you, then either tell me or a teacher and the trouble will be dealt with, and chances Moxxie and Millie will hear of this and report it to the principal."
"We may not be related anymore, but we're family and when someone messes with our family, then they better be prepared for the inner demons to be unlashed. Because sure as Satan I am always ready to unleash my inner demons and not show any mercy."
All the students who hear this are now nervous and they back away and decide to leave Lucy be. They do not wanna see Lincoln at his angriest.
Lucy smiles. "I will Lincoln, I will." She then sees some kids go towards them. "Oh no."
Lincoln sighs. "Trouble? Yeah, I figured." He gets up and he turns around and he sees The Young Morticians Club. "Great you walking casket dwellers, what the hell do you guys want?"
Bartholomew steps forward. "Lincoln, we mean no harm and only wish to speak with Lucy if you don't mind."
"Whatever it is, no thank you. So back off and take your pale white business elsewhere" said Lincoln sternly. "Or would I rather suggest some princess pointers in the art of makeup?"
This make the Goths shocked. "How do you know that?" asked Dante.
Lincoln shows them what's on his phone, the incident when the Young Morticians Club were teleported to a little girls party for princess and all of them in makeup and forced to have tea parties and then some little girl takes a selfie.
"Social media moves fast and you guys are on the top line of the comedy club."
Boris then recalls. "So that is why many of the students here were snickering. They were laughing at us."
Bartholomew then calms down. "Lincoln, we only wish to speak to Lucy, no harm and no foul."
Lucy speaks for herself. "Fine, but Lincoln has to be with me right here and right now if you wanna talk to me, that's my final word to you Bartholomew!"
They're shocked that Lucy stood up for herself and right in front of her former friends, this concerns Haiku. She's one of Lucy's closest friends and she feels bad for what had happened to Lucy.
Bartholomew can see the angered look from Lincoln. "Very well then. Lucy…. umm, what is your last name now?"
"Lucy Bingham Horvitz. Adopted daughter of Moxxie and Millie and member of I.M.P."
Bartholomew nods. "Very well then, we would like to offer you a spot to be back on the Young Morticians Club, to be part of your group of friends once again."
Lincoln is shocked by this, then he looks to Lucy who is wide eyed. But then she looks down and thinks about this. "No."
The Goth's are shocked. "I think we misheard you, did you say no?" asked Persephone.
Lucy looks to them and this time she shows them both her eyes and all the students see this and are shocked to see her actual eyes, and the Young Morticians Club are also shocked, they have never seen her eyes before and she said that her eyes are not ready for the world to see.
"You heard me and clearly I said it properly and you're all not deaf. I said no. I am not going back to the Young Morticians Club, ever again. Because I am not gonna fall for whatever crazy scheme you have in mind, and I also know this is just a way for all of you to get to me and my family of demons and make contact with the Radio Demon Alastor, who I met and appreciates me, but not all of you."
They are shocked she would say that to her. "Now Lucy, we know you made a mistake and we understand what you have gone through, but we do not have those kinds of intentions. We would like you to be part of our inner circle once again" said Bartholomew.
"And we have a new member you are familiar with" said Morpheus. He steps aside and Lucy sees it was the boy she admired, Elias.
"Hello Lucy, you're eyes look quite extravagant."
Lucy blushes, but she shakes it off. "No. I'm not falling for this trick and you guys can't force me into becoming part of this, I am done with the whole Goth club thing. But I still like wearing black and being called Goth because I am one by my choice, or until my Goth phase is over and I can change properly."
Bartholomew looks to her sternly. "Lucy, I can assure you that we have no intentions of tricking you. You are one of us, and we know you need friends and we are the only friends you got, now I ask you again. Will you come back and be part of the Young Morticians Club once more?"
Lincoln is about to intervene, but someone else does. "He said no man, so back off!" said Rocky Spokes. The little brother of Rusty Spokes.
Lucy is shocked. "R-Rocky?"
"You guys better leave her alone, Lucy doesn't need to be forced into some kind of deadly cult of dummies who keep failing at what they do and yeah I know about the whole demon summoning thing. I saw you guys do that stuff when I was skateboarding past he church and I cannot unsee that spider demon" replied Rocky.
Lincoln and Lucy are shocked and they know who that is. "You guys summoned Angel Dust?" asked Lincoln. "Was he pole dancing?"
Haiku sighs. "Yes, yes he was and we cannot unsee what we saw." Haiku blushes at the sight of remembering the spider demon in the kinky boots.
Rocky looks to all of them sternly. "You guys better get lost before one of you loses a tooth!"
The Young Morticians Club then sees everyone looking at them, this is why Lucy wanted to speak to them there. To let everyone see what intentions they have. Bartholomew knows they can't get her to join. "Very well then, have it your way."
The Young Morticians Club then take their leave from Lucy and walk elsewhere with everyone looking at them and Principal Huggins is also concerned about this as well and is thinking of keeping an eye on the creepy Goths.
Rocky then looks to Lucy. "You okay Lucy?"
Lucy nods. "I am. Thank you Rocky, but…. Why did you do that? Why stand up for me?"
Rocky smiles. "Because there was no way in heck was I gonna just let those Goth kids bully you around just because you have a demon family, also I'll be your friend. Like old times sake."
Lucy blushes. "Yeah, like old times. Though, that was last year when we became friends."
Rocky blushes as well. "Yeah, it was." He then looks to Lincoln. "I got this from here man, I'll keep her safe and if someone causes some trouble, we'll be sure to either get you or a teacher."
Lincoln smiles seeing this. "Okay, I trust you Rocky, and if you guys need some company for lunch, then you know where our table is." He then hugs Lucy and she hugs him back. "Stay safe Luce, we'll see each other again later."
"I will." Lucy and Lincoln depart from the hug and Lincoln watches as Lucy and Rocky walk to their classroom, and he can see that Lucy tries to hold his hand, but is too nervous and decides not to.
Lincoln chuckles seeing this. "Wait till Aunt Millie and Uncle Moxxie hear about this." Lincoln then walks off to his classroom and see what they're up to.
(Cafeteria.)
At lunch, Lucy and Rocky go to the table where Lincoln and his friends are. "Glad you guys could join us, but I do ask about the friends you have Rocky" said Rusty.
"Yeah, they don't want anything to do with me anymore" replied Rocky. "They don't like me hanging out with Lucy, but who cares right? They're not real friends and I know there are others who'll be my friends soon."
"Good call little dude" replied Polly. "So, any trouble happened to the two of you at classes?"
"Besides the kids all glaring at me, but they then stop because they know who I'm related too and don't wanna make a certain hellhound kid very angry" replied Lucy. "So today has been quite peaceful than the usual peace I would seek."
Lincoln chuckles. "I'm not letting anyone hurt you, or they will answer to me or to the demon family we have, also how's the ring handling?"
Lucy looks to the ring. "The ring has glowed a few times, almost like it's trying to sense for danger and keep me safe. I can't believe I'm wearing a heaven forged object. Never thought the day would come."
Lincoln looks to his ring. "This is the one thing that can keep us and Luna safe from anyone who wants to harm us. We owe it to the angel, Eliza who gave these to us, though yours came from Alastor."
"I can't believe Lincoln survived an angel attack" replied Mollie. "The scar still there?"
"Yeah, still is and chances I won't let anyone see it until tomorrow" replied Lincoln. "You guys know what I mean."
"Oh yeah! Jordan's big pool party birthday is tomorrow!" said Zach. "We are so going to have an awesome time! We are invited right?" They all look to Jordan.
"Of course you guys are invited, a lot of kids in school can be part of it and I'm okay with Lucy and Rocky also coming along as well" replied Jordan. "But I have to make sure no one cause trouble, or someone's getting kicked out."
"Wow! Really? Thank you" said Lucy and Rocky, they realize they spoke at the same time and they blush and chuckle nervously.
Lincoln smiles and he elbows Rusty to see this. "You seeing this man?"
Rusty smirks. "Dude, I am so believing this now, and I won't meddle with Rocky and Lucy, they have it all figured out. But if they go kinda over the top with this, then we have to intervene."
"Spoken like a true big brother." Lincoln and Rusty fist bump each other. Then they all begin to trade lunches and this is the first time Rocky and Lucy are doing it with the big kids.
Clyde has his whistle ready. "So, what does anyone have for…..? Lucy, Lincoln what is that?" They all look to the lunch that Lucy and Lincoln have for lunch.
"This is a crispy fillet Devil Trout from my grandpa Blitzo" replied Lincoln. "I got five more."
"My parents gave me three devil trout sandwiches for lunch" replied Lucy.
They're all shocked, that there is fish in hell?!
"So, how does it taste?" asked Jordan.
Lincoln and Lucy then share what they have to their friends and all of them like it, and now Clyde is interested on getting one of these fish.
Meanwhile, the Young Morticians Club sees this. "Lucy has made a terrible mistake at denying our request and at this point we may never be able to summon the powerful Radio Demon" said Bartholomew.
"There has to be a way for us to get Lucy to be part of the club" said Morpheus. "We cannot let this opportunity slip away from our fingertips, she is the only one who has been close to the demons and is not a threat to us, much like Lincoln and Luna."
"Chances she may have been given some kind of knowledge and also a book on demonic history and through that we may be able to summon more than just The Radio Demon, perhaps Lucifer or Lilith" replied Boris.
"She must come back to our group, or we will never be able to serve the demonic cause and be part of their society and fulfill our destiny of living immortal lives" said Persephone.
"Yeah, and I wanna try whatever sandwich she's eating, they look really good" replied Dante.
They all look to Dante. "Seriously?" asked Elias. He then sees Haiku looking to Lucy. "Is something wrong Haiku?"
Haiku snaps out of it. "What? Oh, well I was just thinking of how we can be able to get Lucy back into our group, perhaps my plan will work. But we must commence it on the day after tomorrow."
Bartholomew smiles. "Very well then, we shall discuss more about this after school." They continue to eat their food.
But Haiku looks to Lucy and is worried. 'Lucy, I am so sorry for not being there to stand up for you. I am not a good as a friend to you as I was before.' Haiku feels bad for the plan she has and she's hoping Lucy won't fall for it.
To be continued…..
A/N: Well, looks like the Young Morticians Club is a new threat and chances that trouble won't last long, for that will be after the next chapter and the next chapter is a Pool party at Rosato Mansion! Leave a review and tell me what you all think.
