On Thanksgiving, there was a knock on the door.
"They're here! They're here!" Leni squealed.
"Who?" Luke asked.
"Our cousins you never met because our ex dad and uncle Lance had a grudge and he didn't trust us because of a few misdeeds Lynn started." Lori says.
"Look, we have to be at the parade in an hour." Charity says. "And Luke is already annoyed because he's nervous."
"Okay, I'll tell them to meet us at the parade." Lori says.
Charity takes Luke to meet his bandmates.
"They're all here just to see us." Stevie says as he enjoyed being the main attraction.
"Just remember there are other people and things in this parade that these patrons come to see." Gabriel says. "Not just you."
"We want the Elemental Rebel Revolution!" Fans cheered.
The siblings arrived to find their seats for the Macy's parade. It soon started as there were several marching bands, colorful balloons depicting different characters from books and cartoons, and some very elaborate floats with several well-known musicians and bands.
"I love you, Mick!" Luna cheered.
Soon, Alem tuber and his pals were seen on the Kalahari Resorts float.
"This is totally cool!" Jack says as they perform a Thanksgiving themed song. Fans look bored, just wanting Luke and his band.
"Okay, Tina, we're up next." Savannah says.
"They're going to boo us, they just want Luke and his band." Tina says as they appear on the Toys R'Us float. Most fans were looking around, really wanting Elemental Rebel Revolution to appear.
"They don't look interested…" Tina says.
"Who cares? Let's perform." Savannah says.
After that, it was the time that people finally waited for, Elemental Rebel Revolution, who appeared on the Santa's Sleigh float, performing their rendition of "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town" as the crowd cheered.
Fans cheered and screamed. They also performed "Christmas (Baby, Please Come Home)", much to the fans' delight.
Tina sighed. She wasn't talented at all and just sighed, knowing whenever Luke was around, she'd be an afterthought. But she didn't live with him anymore, anyway, so what did it matter?
"We can still win ANH." Savannah says.
Luke and the band were getting pictures taken after the parade.
"Hey, you're Oliver's step-sibling, right?" A boy asked Randy as that got under his skin.
"I'm Randy Waterlash. I'm more than just his step-sibling." Randy says.
"Then how come people don't know you exist?" He asked.
"Because you kids spend your time only listening to Luke." Randy says.
"He's right. We don't really care for anyone else." A kid says.
"My point exactly." Randy says.
"Shelby!" Luna said as the siblings hugged their cousins. Luke came back for Thanksgiving dinner, slightly annoyed.
"You did great! Oh, Luke, this is Shane, Shelby and Shiloh." Leni says as they wave. Luke waves back as he goes off to decompress before eating.
"What's wrong with him"? Shelby asked Lincoln
"He misses Lucy." Lincoln says.
"Wait, where are Lucy, Lola, and Lana?" She asked, just noticing they were absent.
The siblings look at each other.
"It's a long story. Let's just say they're in the hospital." Lincoln says.
Luke couldn't take it anymore as he left the hotel to blow off steam.
Garrett checks on him. "What's wrong? Are you still worried about her?" He asked.
"I wish they'd quit asking me about her…" Luke sniffed.
"They were just curious." Garrett says.
Soon, they came in just in time for dinner. There was an epic spread.
Luke was starving as he began to had a nice time, and Luke was awfully quiet throughout the whole meal.
"Hey, guys, you wanna come to Luke's birthday party?" Lincoln asked.
That was Luke's cue to leave the table.
"Was it something I said?" He asked.
"I don't think he likes us." Shiloh says.
"It's been rough for him. You'll get to know him soon enough. Just give him some time." Luna says.
Luke sat inside his part of the hotel room, just wanting to avoid people right now.
Meanwhile, Lucy was eating some food and frowning. She knew Amy was off with her family.
"Sigh. You two can have my turkey. I'm not hungry right now." Lucy says, frowning.
"Are you thinking of Amy?" Lola asked.
Lucy shook her head. "Luke. I miss him."
"You have other siblings." Lola says.
"I know. But I miss him more." Lucy says.
"What do you have in common with him? You don't like singing or sports. How did you get so close with Luke?" Lana asked.
"Depression and our love for Edgar Allan Poe's work." Lucy says.
"Okay, if depression is how you got along, then it's no wonder why you're still in the hospital." Lola says.
"Wait, what?!" Lucy asked, about to mentally snap.
"The doctor says you're mentally unstable. Until your mental health lifts up, you can't leave. Maybe you should have listened to mom" Lola says
Lucy looks down, wishing she had listened to Charity about emotions. But she was sick of Lola, too. Lifesaver or not.
"Why are you 2 still here?!" Lucy asked.
"We can't leave you alone on Thanksgiving." Lana says.
Soon the siblings finish eating, but notice Lynn sitting outside, sniffling, as Shelby goes to her.
"What happened?" She asked.
"Fine, I'll tell you how it happened! Just don't hate me or try to hurt Lola and Lana!" Lynn says.
"What?" Shelby asked.
"Lola and Lana beat the tar out of Lucy. They skinned her alive." Lynn says.
Shelby tries to process this, but it was too much and she fainted in Lynn's arms as Lynn sighed, looking down as she drew Lucy's face in the snow.
Soon, they were heading back. When they arrived, Charity noticed Lynn and Luke in Lucy's room.
"Look, I know you miss her, but she'll be okay…" Charity says.
"Why did the twins even come home?!" Luke hissed. "They only made her feel worse!"
A stomach growled as Lynn shrieked and saw Lucy lying in bed.
"Lucy?! Oh, my God…" Lynn says as Lucy had a small smile.
Luke was stunned. He hugged Lucy, smiling. His favorite sibling was back.
"I left food for you, Luke. Or should I say, dessert." She showed him the apple cake that Luke loves on Thanksgiving.
Luke smiled and ate a little bit of it. It was delicious, like always. He smiled, happy to see Lucy was better.
