We know the drill, we saw this coming from the previous chapter, so let this begin and let's see how it all goes down with the Royal Woods Middle School tour, with a familiar someone who will guide Lincoln, Clyde and Jordan. Based off of the episode "Middle Men." Enjoy reading folks!
Helluva Loud Adventures.
(Royal Woods Elementary.)
The front of the school has a lot of 6th grade students and all of them are stoked for the big tour today, the tour to the Royal Woods Middle School and a lot of the gang are all here.
Jordan Rosato, Clyde Davis, Rusty Spokes, Zach Gurdle, Liam Honicutt Lumpkin, Stella Zhau, Giggles, Haiku, Polly, Tabby, Lance, Trent, Artie, Chad, Joy, Sadie, Mollie, Cookie, Jenny, Kat, Flat Tire, Papa Wheelie, Cristina, Penelope, Renee, Richie and Gabby.
But someone is not with them and they all continue to talk to one another. Jordan looks around for the kid she knows and loves. She then walks over to Clyde. "Clyde, anything on where Lincoln might be?"
"Not at the moment, and I thought he'd be the one to come here early and yet he's not. What gives? I mean, Lucy's here in school and already inside" replied Clyde.
Then a portal opens. "Well, here he is now" said Stella. They see the snow-haired kid walk out of the portal and he goes over to greet them.
"Hey gang, sorry for being late." He uses the medallion to close the portal. "Blitzo gave me something for lunch and then I was told to meet on the roof and my secret buddy gave me some candy she made for desserts or when someone tries to be mean to me and I need the not so violent way to handle it."
The others had no idea what was that supposed to mean, but Jordan has some suspicions and she asks. "The candy, what the heck is in them and did "She" make them?"
Lincoln sighs. "I smelled them out, and so did my mom and there's nothing rigged in the candy, and yes it was "Her" who made them."
"Guys, who the heck is this "she" you two are talking about?" asked Sadie.
Lincoln and Jordan know that they cannot know about the Overlord of maniacal madness, potions and murderous intents, so they just think of an excuse and Lincoln has one. "I can't tell you, sorry, but if I do then things could turn sideways into the lava river real fast."
Giggles laughs, but then she sees the serious look from the Silva Hound kid. "Oh, you're serious? Okay, never mind." But Haiku on the other hand knows, Lucy told her and so she shall keep this secret safe.
They see the bus arrive and all of them head inside. "Haven't been in the bus for a long time."
Clyde chuckles. "Lincoln, you've been using portals to get around lately, so it's been who knows how long since you've taken the bus." They all take their seats and Lincoln sits next to Jordan, and the duo watch as Clyde and Chloe sit next to each other and talk it out.
"So, when do you think Davis over there is gonna ask Curda for a date?" asked Jordan.
"Hard to say, chances it'll be around Middle School or the summer" replied Lincoln.
Trent then appears from behind. "Wanna place a bet dude?"
(Royal Woods Middle School.)
The bus soon arrives to the school and they all come out and take a look at the place and all of them saying one thing. "Whoa!"
Lincoln on the other hand looks closely. "I have been here, a few times. Also, did they renovate the place?"
"Yes they are, Mr. Silva Hound." Mrs. Johnson came with them. "Now, everyone listen up. As you all go through this orientation, you will be grouped in three and will have an 8th grader as you're orientation buddy, so behave and do as they say and try not to make a mess of the place."
Kat raises her hand. "What about you Mrs. Johnson? What are you gonna do?"
"Well, I'm just gonna go and check out the place that I once knew and see if I can catch up on some former High School and Middle School friends" replied Mrs. Johnson. "Now, everyone get ready, you're orientation buddies are here."
They all see their buddies and their assigned names as a group of three kids, and Lincoln smiles when he sees that he's with Clyde and Jordan. 'Almost like someone knew that… Oh, obviously either mom or Luna did this. That makes sense.'
Lincoln goes over to Clyde and Jordan and they begin to talk about what they would expect and then they see someone come to them. "Well, looks like I'm the orientation buddy for you guys." It's none other than…. Lainey, she then looks to the reader.
"What? Were you guys expecting Margo Roberts like the other stories? Not this time people."
Lainey Burch – 14 year's old two days ago. She has orange hair with 3 pairs of eye lashes. She wears a light blue eye shadow, a pink shirt with white stripes, a light blue skirt and black flats. She is a proud member of the Roller derby team known as the Roller Woods Roller Queens and she has a girlfriend – Alice Parekh.
She goes over to greet them. "Hey guys, glad I could be the orientation buddy, for once. Well, never have been and same with the rest of those who came here to take this role. So come on, let's get going."
Lincoln, Jordan and Clyde follow her, and they see Margo Roberts wave at them and discuss some stuff with Tabby, Giggles and Haiku. They wave to her as well and proceed to follow Lainey.
(Inside.)
They enter homeroom class and they look around and see that the students have also come in and they see some others who are their friends. Trent, Lance, Artie, Joy, Kat and Cookie and they're orientation buddies are Maddie and Theo.
Lainey then explains to them. "Alright, so this is Biography class and Mrs. Salter will be here shortly and there are no assigned seats. So, sit wherever you like dudes." She goes over and she sits neighboring her girlfriend, Alice and the two of them boops each other's noses and giggle.
Lincoln, Jordan and Clyde find some seats next to each other and Lainey and they begin the class as soon as the teacher comes in, Ms. Salter and they begin their class.
(Later.)
They then get to the next class. "Alright, so this is Biology class and you guys are gonna need these." Lainey hands them the white lab coats.
Clyde smiles seeing this. "Cool, lab coats. I've always wanted to wear one of these. We don't have any back at the elementary school."
"Try not to get too attached Clyde." Lincoln puts his on and so does Jordan and they see six of their friends there as well. Tabby, Giggles, Haiku, Liam Rusty and Zach and with their orientation buddies, Margo and Elliot.
They then see the teacher speaking to them. "Welcome 6th graders to Biology class, my name is Ms. Pham and today we'll be continuing our work from yesterday, on live meal worms. So, everyone grab a case and let's begin."
Lincoln, Jordan and Clyde grab a box with live meal worms, and then they see Rusty trip and the meal worms land on Liam. "Well, this sure looks familiar and I wasn't even gardening."
Zach and Tabby go over and help him and so does Rusty, at least no one else got hit and no one is laughing either and they all begin with their class.
(Timeskip.)
We now go to the Cafeteria and it's been a few classes later for this one. They all take their seats and speak with their Orientation buddies about what's next and Lainey goes towards Lincoln, Jordan and Clyde and she sees the lunch they brought.
"Huh, you guys seem totally prepared for what comes next, also we're having meat ball subs so enjoy." she hands them some meat ball subs and they enjoy it with the lunch they brought.
"So, how was enjoying the rest of this day?" asked Lainey.
"Pretty awesome and learning about History Class got me thinking that I should look for someone who might know about the history of the French-American alliance, and I know just the folks to look for when I need some early teachings" replied Lincoln.
Lainey is confused by this and looks to Clyde and Jordan. "What the heck is he talking about?"
"In hell, there are tons of folks who died from the past, well those in the past in our country and at times Lincoln goes to them to get some small information on history and other stuff and sometimes Luna and Lucy do the same?" said Jordan.
"Lucy doesn't seem to ask much, but Luan does tag along with me" replied Lincoln.
Lainey chuckles. "Dang. Looks like someone is locked, stocked and ready to roll with Middle School early, and another thing I need to mention is that you guys have to go through the rest of the day on your own. You guys don't need me and we wanna see if you guys can do this thing solo without the buddy."
"Oh, well that does sound okay with us and I think we can handle this on our own. Thanks for guiding through the morning classes" replied Lincoln.
"Yeah, you were a real good orientation buddy" replied Clyde. "We'll keep track of everything you said and make sure not to cause any trouble."
"And we'll try to avoid the photography room too" replied Jordan.
"Good to know and see you guys at the end of the day." Lainey takes her lunch and she meets with her girlfriend, Alice. She then recalls something. 'At least they know not to get into a heck of trouble, like when Lynn first came to Middle School.' She cringes as she recalls those bad times for the former sports jock.
(After lunch.)
Lincoln, Jordan and Clyde walks down the halls and they see the class they were looking for, Art class. "Finally we made it. Now, let's get out water color on" said Clyde.
Jordan then sees Chad, Richie and Hassan about to go into another room. "Guys, stop!" She goes over and so does Lincoln and Clyde. "That's the photography room. Go in there and you guys will be in trouble big time!"
Chad is confused by what she had just said. "I'm sorry, what? I don't get it?"
"She means, that if someone goes in there then all of the photos they took will be gone and those inside are gonna be really, really angry at your guys. Seriously, you do not wanna go in there." the one who spoke is this upper-class teen with blonde hair, blue plaid jacket, white shirt and blue jeans.
"Whoa. Way too close." Hassan and the others back up. "Thanks for the save back there guys, wait how did you know?"
"Our Orientation buddy told us earlier about that room and we avoided that room ever since we were introduced to first period" replied Clyde. "Which class are you going to?"
Richie checks the schedule and sees what the next class is. "We need to go to Science class."
The Upper-class teen speaks up. "Headed there myself, come on I'll lead the way." The three boys follow the preteen and they head to class and so do the others to art class.
(Next Class.)
The next class they go to is Math and they look around and see some students are there and some familiar faces their used to, and then two other preteens come in and greet them.
Byron Dockins – A plus-size boy who has light skin and blond hair. He wears a pink shirt inside of a multicolored jacket, dark gray jeans and white shoes. He also wears a blue cap backwards and has a wristwatch on his left arm.
Cici Thompson – is a small and thin girl, who has tan skin and two pairs of eyelashes. She has black shoulder length hair, pink eye shadow, bushy eye brows and small pearl earrings. She wears a green sweater, with a yellow star design. A plaid blue skirt and brown boots.
"Hey there, you must be from the elementary school. Well, we know that you guys learned about the other classes with no assigned seats, but in this class there are assigned seats" replied Cici.
"There are some extra seats over by the window and be warned about math class, Mr. Bolhofner can be a bit… Strict and seems to always fail those who don't get to their seats, making them have zero grades."
"Harsh." Lincoln, Jordan and Clyde go to the window seats and wait for the teacher and with them are Cristina, Mollie and Sadie. They then begin with class and they experience for the first time how… Well, a bit mean Mr. Bolhofner can be.
This is something they all need to be cautious when they head to Middle School for reals.
(Gym class.)
This time, the entire class from the Elementary School are there, with some students from the 8th grade, and the one person who looks forward to this is none other than Jordan Rosato. Lincoln looks to her and smirks. "You looking forward to what sports is coming up today?"
"Dang right I am, and whatever I learn will bear fruit the following day" replied Jordan. She is unaware that the others hear this and are feeling nervous about what happens next and tomorrow.
Then they see Coach Keck arrive, and she pushes a TV on a stand to the middle of the gym. "Alright everyone, bad news for all of ya. Because I just waxed the floors for the big PTA meeting later, we're not gonna be having dodge ball and…"
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" they all stop and look towards Jordan. She realizes what she did and she blushes in embarrassment. "Sorry about that."
Coach Keck chuckles. "Don't be sorry kid, I feel the pain too. But, be glad that this film showing is something you might like." she turns on the TV and they all watch the documentary on… Dodge Ball skills, oh god.
Jordan grins and she observes and so does Lincoln, everyone else from the elementary school are scared and have one thing to say in their thoughts. 'We're doomed.' and so they too try to observe and learn from the documentary.
(After classes.)
With Middle School done for the day it was time to head on home. "Well, looks like I got something to look forward to for tomorrow" replied Jordan. "So, Clyde Davis. I suggest you stand by the same team and Linc and I and try to stay alive, and survive. Just giving you a heads up."
Clyde gulps. "Noted." Clyde then thinks of telling the others, because even though they watched the TV at Gym, Jordan will still obliterate them all when tomorrow comes.
They then spot their orientation buddy, Lainey and with her is Alice. "Hey gang, you guys look like you all had fun. How were the classes when you three were flying solo without me?"
Lincoln was about to speak, but then Jordan speaks up. "I am so going to use what I learned from the gym class and I am gonna dominate dodge ball again!"
Lainey and Alice have no idea what to make of what she just said and they look towards Lincoln and Clyde. The two boys nod, confirming to them that what happens tomorrow is a war zone and Jordan Rosato is gonna be leading the charge like a one woman army.
Lincoln hears his phone ringing and he checks who the gig is about. "Well, well. Looks like I got something to do tomorrow, a gig and this one is so worth it."
Clyde and Jordan go over and check out who it is and feeling kinda curious, so does Lainey and Alice.
Client: Nancy "Nene" Breslin – An African-American fashion designer who is the best in the city of Detroit and then some jerk comes and criticizes her boutique and even ended up going too far and threw a molotov which burned the down the whole place.
Eliot "Eltio" Robinson – A French-American man who runs a book store, and all of a sudden some jerk comes in and criticizes the place and even spreads lies about the place and then does the same thing and threw a molotov and the book store burnt down and the man is dead.
Target: Jake "The Ass" Meyers – A very rude, very mean and also racist 69 year old man. He's been known as a critic, until he lost his mind and became obsessed in criticizing everything in Detroit and even the mayor and has made so many attempts to shut so many stuff down and is also responsible for shutting down the local High School and two famous restaurants.
Responsible for killing two folks but has managed to evade the law, and continues to ransack the city with more criticizing and possible chances for more local businesses could end up on fire and more lives getting killed.
Results: Send the bastard to hell, but first remove the arms, legs and vocal cords so he won't criticize who they are in hell and how they live. Also, needing a soul orb because the clients will kill this asshole when they finish the tormenting process.
Lincoln chuckles. "Well, I am so going to enjoy this…."
"That man is dark, rude, and is insanely dumb" replied Alice. They can see that she does not look happy. "I hope he suffers."
"Yeah, you and me are gonna be elsewhere." Lainey drags her girlfriend away. "You guys have fun with the gig tomorrow."
Lincoln, Jordan and Clyde did not see that one coming. "Well, I should head home now." Lincoln opens up the portal to hell and he kisses Jordan on the cheek and fist bumps with Clyde and he walks through the portal back home.
They got a son of a bitch pain in the ass to take down and send to the fiery pits of hell. This should be very entertaining.
To be continued folks!
