Chapter 14: No Such Luck.
On Lincoln's fourth day of sleeping outside of his house. On the fourth month he stayed at the home of his birth family, his older sister Lynn who still did not like Lincoln and his presence disgusted her, was forced to go to a baseball game, after she'd threatened him with a bat and Lincoln knew he could not win that fight, so he gave into her demand and afterwards when she lost the game, she blamed him and labeled him as bad luck for her misfortune. After that day, she went around the house spreading her theory that he was bad luck and most of not all believe her. The ones that did not believe in Lincoln being bad luck, did not want to get involved and be ostracized themselves. And to Lincoln's dismay he overheard his parents that night, that they want to send Lincoln away because of their belief that he caused misfortune to them. Lincoln was furious and wanted to leave himself, he still had the Medallion tied around his neck, but he knew he had to get some of his stuff and Lily. He couldn't let Lily be with these people who were throw away their own child like an animal. He waited until midnight to make his move. When midnight struck, he went through the doggy door into the house and carefully make his way upstairs to his room where he discovered that his room was boarded up.
'How could they do this?' He thought
It didn't matter, he went through the vents Lucy showed him and went into his room and found his few items he had were boxed up labeled "BAD LUCK STUFF", he teared up at the sight of it but he had to move he went through looking for his backpack to collect the stuff he was going to pack up. He took his dagger, some books he stole from school which included "The Sun Also Rises", "The Catcher in the Rye", "The Lord of the Flies", "The Shining", "Night", "The Great Gatsby","Of Mice and Men", "The Red Badge of Courage", and a copy of the Old Testament( Lincoln had became fascinated with other religions and after he read the Old Testament he became a self-proclaimed Jew). He collected those books, because he knew his Alexa would love to read them. He also took some pairs of clothes, a picture of his family that did not include him, an American flag, and of course Bun Bun. He clawed out of the vents and went down the hall into Lisa's/Lily's room and carefully tried not to wake either one of them up. He went up to Lily's crib and looked down to her baby sister, she was fourteen months old and she probably won't remember her family but he knew he couldn't leave her behind. He picked her up carefully taking her blanket and her teddy bear because he knew she'll need it. He also took some diapers and put it in his backpack. While carrying Lily he went downstairs into the kitchen to get some of her baby food. After he collect everything he need he went into the Living room, while still holding Lily and now holding the Medallion in his other hand. He said to himself,
"Goodbye, My Family."
He was gone in a flash and was now inside his Amazon home with Lily, it was in the middle of the night and he knew his mother and aunt were sleeping. Lily began crying and Lincoln began calming her down, he knew he didn't want to wake them up.
"Shh, it's okay don't cry Lily." He told his crying sister.
"Turned Around!" Yelled Artemis.
As instructed, Lincoln turned around looked at Artemis with fear because she was pointing her bow at him. She then had a surprised look on her face and lowered the bow. She looked at him and said,
"Lincoln what are you doing here."
