Helluva Loud Adventures.
"Taylor the former bully."

(October 1. Royal Woods Middle School.)

Here we are again, and this time Lincoln Silva Hound is trying to fix his locker, because apparently someone tried to break his locker door, and that someone, or some folks are Pablo and Anderson. The duo were spotted on the camera doing this action, and they have been taken away for detention.

Lincoln doesn't show any resent on them, and that they are a waste of his strength and time, and he manages to fix his locker. "There, or perhaps I can ask Tannins if she can make a security measure for this." Because he knows Pablo and Anderson will be back to do more damage and he knows why.

'Ever since Taylor became part of my group of friends, those two have been giving me the stink eye. They don't like me after her change, I know Taylor is their leader and all, but they can handle things on their own… Or, I could be wrong. One of them has a crush on her, and is too afraid to admit it.'

He then sees Taylor walks towards him and she seems upset. "Hey, Lincoln. I heard about what happened and I am so sorry that those two morons broke your locker." She then seems angry. "I swear, if I ever see them again, I am going to break them so hard! Those pieces of shit."

Lincoln goes over to calm her down. "Whoa. Whoa. Chill out, Taylor and calm down. Watch those words, and thankfully Principal Ramirez isn't here to hear this, or else it's gonna be detention."

Taylor does calm down. "Sorry, sorry. I just… I don't like them anymore, and I don't like it when some folks pick on my friends, and you along with the others are my friends and there is no freaking way I would let you guys get hurt by some jerks. Pablo and Anderson will pay for this horrible act."

Taylor then holds onto her bag. "Sorry, I'll see you at class. Bye Lincoln." She then walks away from the boy, and Lincoln keeps on watching her walk away and he is concerned, and thinking of a plan.

"Walk and talk with her." Jordan arrives and they walk together down the hall to their classroom. "Ask her to go out for a walk, such as a Park, and then when the time does come, then ask her what's been going on. Because there's something I need to tell you…"

"The other pals and gals and I, we have been talking and we were also wondering the real truth about why Taylor is hanging out with us, and it's not just because she wants to change and make new friends, and not be alone. We can tell that there is something else behind this whole ordeal."

Lincoln nods. "Looks like we're all in the same curious boat as to figure out what the fuck is going on with Taylor and hanging out with us. Alright, I'll do it after classes and I'll take her to Tall Timbers Creek." He then kisses Jordan's cheek. "Thank you Jordan, this is gonna help and I'll be sure to tell you and the others about this soon enough when I get answers."

Jordan nods. "Glad to help." They continue walking down the hallway, but Jordan has this theory in her head. 'I don't know if I am wrong, but perhaps Taylor is attracted to Lincoln. He did show her that he could overpower her and the other two, and that could be the alpha gene trait kicking in again. Chances it could be true, or it might be something else. Glad we didn't place any dumb bets.'

(After classes.)

Lincoln walks out of the school and he spots Jordan go to the bus and she waves to him and nods. Lincoln understands and he waits for someone to come, someone he needs to talk to, someone who is not telling him the truth, and then he sees her.

Taylor Delaware, and she's seen with her backpack and walking out of the school, and she looks to her paper about her upcoming school report, and she knows she's gonna have a hard time on this. "Taylor." The girl then sees Lincoln and he goes over to the boy.

"Hey, Lincoln. What's happening? Also, why aren't you going home now? Don't you have hell stuff to do?" asked Taylor. She then puts her book report notes into her bag.

Lincoln is confused by her words. "Alright, so it's not hell stuff, it's an assassination/killing gig. Also, I don't have any plans for today, and I decided that perhaps we should take a walk somewhere, and ease the air and then talk."

Taylor is confused by this and asks. "Umm, okay. But we are outside, you want to walk me to my house or should I walk you to your house?"

Lincoln chuckles. "First off, we're not walking to either house. Second, calm down and don't act all nervous, we're friends. Lastly, I know where we can go to walk around and get some peace in the head. Because after what went down with my locker, you need the calm sense of mind."

Taylor blushes with embarrassment, and he is right. Her mind has been a steaming motorbike seeking on how she can make Pablo and Anderson pay for trying to break the locker of Lincoln Silva Hound. "Alright, alright. Where did you have in mind?"

Lincoln uses his medallion and he opens the portal. "Tall Timbers Park. You been there?"

Taylor shakes her head in denial. "I never had the chance to check out the local Park's around the town, sorry. I was… That was the time when I was a…. A bully." she looks away, feeling embarrassed.

Lincoln smiles. "Taylor, come on. Let me show you the calm and peace of Tall Timbers Park." He then allows her to step through, and she does. She also blushes at his gentleman nature to let her go on first, and then he follows next, then the portal closes.

But he didn't notice the angry looks from Pablo and Anderson as they press their faces to the window of the classroom and have watched what happened. Now, they are miffed at Lincoln and what they want is to make him pay for taking Taylor away from their group.

The duo then go back to their seats and they begin to plot their scheme, to make Lincoln Silva Hound pay, but then they have another idea… they come up with a plan to make someone pay for betraying them, and that someone is Taylor Dalaware.

(Tall Timbers Park.)

The duo are now walking in the Park, and Taylor takes a good look around to the place, and Lincoln notices how she looks at everything, almost like she never has spent a time in any of the local parks. Being a bully, well former bullying times, she never bothered to look around the peace of the Parks.

Lincoln also looks around and he smiles when he sees Luan is watching over Lisa and Darcy. The two girls are reading a book, while Luan is going through a script, almost like a play he wants to make for her school, which means she is planning something big.

Lincoln then speaks. "Taylor, why are you hanging out with me and my friends?"

Taylor is confused on why he'd ask those words. "Umm, because I wanna be friends with you guys. You knew what I was going through in life and showed me that I don't have to be alone, and that I don't need to pick on others just to show that I am above them all."

"Also, I see now that the social system of the school is no longer needed. I can see now that I have done so many dumb wrongs as a bully and made things hard for everyone I have ever messed with, and so I wanna change and become someone else, someone better."

Lincoln nods, but then he asks. "You're still dodging the question, the real one. Taylor Delaware, why the hell are you hanging out with me and my friends, and I want the truth this time."

Taylor is surprised by this and she looks away with embarrassment and feels nervous. Lincoln notices this and he sees what this is all about. "Oh…. Oh wow. Did not see that fucking shit coming, looks like my alpha gene trait made you attracted to me, huh?"

Taylor blushes a deep red and is nervous. "What? What? No, no way I just… You already and… Well, you see…" she sees the concerned look from the boy, and it seems adorable for her. She then admits it. "Yes, yes I am attracted to you. Heck, I have a crush on you after the time you beat me and the others."

"I just… I wanted to follow you, to be there to help keep you safe, it's like this dumb bully rules instinct I have…. When someone beats me, then I feel like I owe them for showing that they are better than me, and you ate better than me, and also kinda cute. I have a crush on you Lincoln Silva Hound."

Lincoln is about to speak, but Taylor beats him. "But I know that you have a girlfriend, and I don't wanna break apart the cute romance you have for each other, and since I can't have any romantic stuff with you…. I think its best I follow and keep you and Jordan safe and together, like a bodyguard."

Lincoln is not surprised, and so he speaks. "Taylor, that is flattering, and nice of you to do and admit. All I wanted was the truth and that was the truth. I won't make things go bad or awkward between us, because we are friends and certainly the others will be okay when they know about this."

Taylor didn't like the sound of that. "A-Are you sure? I mean… I don't wanna, what if Jordan…."

"She won't, and the others won't either" replied Lincoln. He then stops walking. "Taylor, listen to me. They will understand, I can reason with them, they'll be alright with this and they know you wouldn't be a bad person, they gave you a chance and they see you as one of us, a friend and as for Jordan… Well, she'll understand too. Besides, I had sex with several women before I was her boyfriend."

Lincoln walks away from her and he hums the song that Velvet performed months ago. Taylor feels touched hearing this and she can trust Lincoln with… Then she realizes what he just said. "Wait, what? Hold up, Silva Hound! What do you mean you had sex with several women before?" She follows the boy as they continue to walk down the path, and he explains to her everything.

What Taylor hears is something she did not see coming, and now she feels even more interested in the white-haired boy with the hellhound blood in his veins.

What they don't know, is that Loona is there and heard everything, and she was walking Vark to the Park and she smiles hearing this. 'Well, looks like Lincoln was right, we can trust her… And yet, chances we might have a gal who wants to get laid by my son.'

Loona snickers from this. 'I am dang fucking proud of you kiddo.' She then walks away and looks for Vark and she is less than amused by what she sees. "Seriously? This is ridiculous, Vark." The four-legged shark demon is barking at a squirrel, well several squirrels on a tree, like a dog.

To be continued in the next chapter folks!

A/N: Well, now Lincoln knows why Taylor is hanging out with them, and that means he has to tell the others about this, this is going to be awkward but chances Jordan will understand and she'll need to have a word with Taylor next time. Leave a review and tell me what you all think folks!
