By. Jaroberts251

Chapter twenty

Hey everyone, its Jaroberts251 here and I'm signing in to bring you guys the latest update of my story, 'The Loud House: Filling the Void,' and in chapter it will be the start of a whole new idea for a Summer Arc I got a while ago from a friend, "iquinn18" as it was a planned to send The Loud Family to a place they never explored before for the Summer. Now if any of you guys don't mind let's move on to the story...

Saturday morning and it was a beautiful day in Royal Woods as all the kids were enjoying the beginning of their Summer Vacation. Now we turn our attention to the Loud House as we find our favorite middle child, Lincoln loud, as he was currently fulfilling his promise to Lily, now they were in the front room as they appeared to be in the middle of video game.

"Wow Lily, you're still good at video game as you were when you only 15 months old." Lincoln complimenting his baby sister.

"Thank you, Linky." Lily replied.

"No problem Lily, just giving credit where credit is due, but that doesn't mean I'm going to seat back and let you beat me so easily." Lincoln said, not ready to admit defeat.

"Bring it." Lily replied.

The duo continued to play their game as they tried to best one another, but as their sibling competition proceeded they were soon interrupted by the sound of the doorbell catching their attention.

"Huh? Now who could that be?" Lincoln asked, pausing the game.

"I don't know." Lily replied.

The doorbell ringed again.

"Uh mom the doorbell ringing!" Lincoln shouted.

"Could you get it sweet I'm a little busy at the moment." Rita replied, shouting back.

"Yes ma'am." Lincoln said.

Lincoln set his control to the side as he got up from his seat and turned to Lily.

"Now Lily no cheating." He said.

"Yes Lincoln." Lily replied.

With that confirmed, Lincoln turned around as he made his way to the front door. When he got there Lincoln opened the door to reveal a tall Japanese man wearing a brown suit with a black tie and white undershirt standing in front of him.

"Konnichiwa good sir or as you, Americans would say, hello good sir." The man said.

"Umm... hello." Lincoln replied, confused.

"Excuse me I don't mean to interrupt your day, but I'm currently looking for a Mr. Lincoln Loud, and due to my resources, they told me that he lives here live at 1216 Franklin Avenue, Royal Woods, Michigan." The man said, "Do you know him?"

"Well actually I do I know him because he would be me, I'm Lincoln Loud." Lincoln replied.

"Oh, really well I guess my resources were correct, anyway it's an honor to meet you, Mr. Loud, my name is Buaro Aisha." The man said, giving Lincoln a bow.

Lincoln continued to look at the man in confused as the man picked himself up.

"Yeah uh... Buaro right," Lincoln asked, receiving a nod from the man, "I'm flatter and all, but I want to know why is it an honor for you to meet me?"

"Oh, I sorry about that I guess I was so busy with my search that I completely forgot to explaining my reason of being here, anyway I'm an assistant that works at the Manga Cooperation located in Tokyo, Japan and I've been sent by the higher up." Buaro explained, reaching into suit and pulling out an envelope and presenting it to Lincoln, "Here you go Mr. Loud."

"You don't have call me, "Mr. Loud", just call me, Lincoln" Lincoln replied accepting the letter.

"Sure, thing Mr.- uh I mean Lincoln." Buaro said, nervously.

Lincoln chuckled at Buaro's action and began to open the envelope. He removed the folded piece of paper and unfolded it as it reads;

Dear Contestant,

If you're currently reading this special mail, then you must know that we received your entree into our Manga Search Contest and are happy to inform that out of all the competitors, who submitted work in the contest that only the top four was select and your work has made it to our Final four and where it'll be chosen between the other three finalists, so you won an all expend paid trip to Tokyo, Japan for you an entire family for the whole Summer. We hope to see you really soon best wishes.

From, The CEO of Manga Industry

After finish reading the letter Lincoln's eyes widened as he looked Buaro, who was smiling at him.

"Oh My God! This can't be happening." Lincoln said, super excited.

"But I believe it is happening Lincoln." Buaro replied.

"This is literally one of greatest moments of my life, right now." Lincoln said, still excited.

"Glad to hear that, so I guess that means we will see you and your family in Tokyo for Final four meeting and final picking?" Buaro said.

"You betcha I can't wait to tell my family they're about this they're going to be so excited." Lincoln replied.

"That's wonderful and speaking of your family, how many live here so I know how many seats to book on the plane?"

"Yeah there are a total of twelve of us living here entirely." Lincoln replied.

"Twelve people?!" Buaro asked, surprised, "But this house is obviously doesn't suit the living condition of that many people."

"Hey we managed to live in this house for multiple years and there use to be thirteen of us, but one of us moved out so I'm sure that this house can handle twelve people." Lincoln replied, taking offense.

"Okay I can understand, well I'll go purchase your family tickets while I'm gone I do suggest that you should inform your huge family about the trip." Buaro said.

"Sure, will do." Lincoln agreed.

With that said, Buaro walked off and Lincoln closed the door as he walked back over to the couch, when he arrived Lincoln looked to see his mother walking into the room.

"Lincoln, who were you just talking to?" She asked, curious.

"Mom, Lily, I've just received some terrific news that will make you guys super proud of me." Lincoln replied, excited.

"What is it sweetheart?" Rita asked, getting more curious.

"Wait a minute because I before I tell anyone I want everyone to it at the same time so no one can ruin the surprise." Lincoln replied.

"Okay if you say so Lincoln, but I'm afraid they're out doing their own thing, so it might be a while before they all return." Rita said.

"I can't wait that long maybe I could go around and tell them to come because there an urgent family meeting they all need to attend." Lincoln suggested.

"That could work." Rita replied.

"Well I see you two later right now I need to get going." Lincoln said.

Lincoln started to leave until he heard Lily calling out to him.

"Lincoln, what about our game?" She asked.

The sixteen-year-old turned to little sister and he said, "Oh I'm sorry Lily, but can we put it on hold for a minute because I really need to go and take care of this errands really quick."

"But you promised me that we would spend the whole day together." Lily said, starting to get sad.

"I know I know I did, but I really need to get the others together it's really important." Lincoln replied, starting to feel bad himself, "I'm sorry again Lily."

"Excuse if mind me intervening into your conversation, but might I suggest that you both go to get the rest of your sisters." Rita suggested.

"That's a good idea thanks mom." Lincoln said, "So what do you say would you like to take our day together on the road?"

"Yes Lincoln." Lily replied, cheering up.

"Great let's get going." Lincoln said.

"Yay an outing with my big brother, Linky." Lily replied, excited.

With that the five-year-old hopped off the couch and took Lincoln's hand into her own hand and soon the two walked out of the house as they were off on their trip.

(Transition)

The screen shifted as we now find Lincoln and Lily walking down the streets as they were walking Lily took the opportunity to talk with Lincoln.

"Hey Lincoln." She said.

"Yes Lily." Lincoln replied.

"Well you said that you've got some important news you wanted to tell the family and I'm curious to know what it is?" She asked.

"You'll find out soon enough when I tell the others." Lincoln answered.

"Come on Linky, please you can tell I can keep a secret." Lily said.

"I'm sorry Lily, but I think it would be a huge time saver if I just tell everybody at one time so I'm afraid you'll have to wait, okay." Lincoln replied.

Lily sighed, "Fine, but where are we going?"

"Well we're supposed to be heading to find our sisters, so I think it would be best to start by finding the closest sister." Lincoln said.

The two kept walking until they looked to see that they were walking past the park and they looked inside to see a couple teenagers playing kickball, when Lily noticed something.

"Hey Lincoln I see Lynn." Lily said, pointing.

Lincoln looked to where his sister was pointing and saw that it was indeed there older sister, Lynn, who appeared to be stepping up to plate.

"Yeah Lily, you're right that is Lynn let's watch how she do." Lincoln said.

"Sure Lincoln." Lily replied.

The two leaned against the fence as watched Lynn in action.

At home plate, Lynn began stretching her legs as she prepared to kick the ball. Finishing her stretches Lynn lifted her hand motioning the pitcher to roll the ball. The pitcher did as they were told and started rolling. Lynn watched and waited for the ball to get close enough. When the ball got close enough, Lynn took a flew stepped forward as she kicked the ball sending the ball flying. The ball flew through the air until it was declared a homerun. Lynn ran around all the bases as she reached home plate, when she arrived her and her teammates started celebrating.

"Hey Lynn!" Someone yelled.

Hearing her name being called, Lynn turned her attention to the direction of voice that called for her as she looked, Lynn smiled as she turned to see her little brother/secret boyfriend, Lincoln, and her baby sister, Lily.

Lynn walked over to greet them.

"Hey guys." She said.

"Hey Lynn." Lincoln replied.

"Hi Lynn." Lily added.

"So what are you guys doing here? Wait let me guess you two came here to see me and my team destroy another team in kickball?" Lynn asked, hoping that was the reason.

"Uh nice guess, but no the real reason we're here is-" Lincoln started before Lily interrupted him.

"Lincoln got some big news to tell the family and we're going around collecting everyone to bring them back home so were here to l get you." She said.

"What's the big news?" Lynn asked.

"I don't know Lincoln won't tell me." Lily replied.

"Yeah because I don't want to repeat myself multiple times or have anyone spoiling it for anyone." Lincoln said.

"This sounds interesting I can't wait to hear it." Lynn replied.

"Yeah anyway will you go home?" Lincoln asked.

"I will, but not right now because I'm the middle of a game so once it's over I'll head home, okay." Lynn replied.

"Great oh wait before I forget do you know where the others are at?" Lincoln asked.

"Hmm not sure, but I do remember that Lana said something going to the Petting zoo, so if you find her there she'll probably know where they are." Lynn replied.

"Okay thanks Lynn good luck with the rest of your game." Lincoln said, turning to Lily, "Let's go Lily."

"Alright Lincoln, bye Lynn." Lily replied, waving goodbye to Lynn.

"Bye guys." Lynn said.

With that said, Lincoln and Lily walked off leaving Lynn. Once they were gone, Lynn turn around as she returned to her teammates.

Later, Lincoln and Lily walked down the streets until they reached the Royal Wood's Petting zoo.

"Lincoln, we're at the Petting zoo." Lily stated

"We are? Good because that means Lana should be here." Lincoln said.

The two of them walked inside, where they found all sort of different types of baby animals in their pens like; goats, horse, ducks, geese, and etc.

"As luck at all cute baby animals, can I let them?" Lily asked.

"Maybe some other time Lily, but right now we need to find Lana." Lincoln replied, trying to stay on task.

"Hey there she goes." Lily said, pointing.

"Where?" Lincoln asked.

Lincoln looked over in the direction Lily was pointing and as he looked over to see that Lily was pointing to the pig pen. Looking closer Lincoln saw that it was indeed their sister, Lana, as she appears to be rolling around in the mud with the baby pigs.

"You're right good job again, Lily." Lincoln said.

"Thanks Lincoln." Lily replied.

The two of them walked over to the pen, but Lana was too distracted to noticed them coming.

"Lana!" Lincoln called out.

"Huh?" Lana answered, setting up in the mud to see Lincoln and Lily, "Oh hey Lincoln hey Lily, what are you guys doing here?"

"Looking for you, what are doing here?" Lincoln asked.

"It's Saturday and Petting zoo always allow their customers to get a more hands on experience with the animals and I love to roll around in the pig pen." Lana explained.

"Make sense." Lincoln replied.

"Yeah anyway why are you guys looking me for anyway?" Lana asked.

"Well we're not looking for you, but the others as well because I've got some important news to tell you all so were having a family meeting." Lincoln replied.

"Alright, what's the news about?" Lana asked.

"No spoilers if you want to figure out you'll have to be there at the meeting." Lincoln said.

"Fine I'll head home, but in half an hour because I want to hangout with some more of the animals before I go." Lana replied.

"No problem will probably have the others all together by then." Lincoln said, "Let's go Lily."

"Okay Lincoln." Lily agreed.

The two turned and started to walk off until Lana called out to them.

"Hey wait you guys."

"What Lana?" Lincoln asked.

"If you're for the others then the closest one nearby should be Lola because we originally came here together, but she decided to leave because she didn't want to get mud on her dress, so she told she was going to a mirror shop." Lana replied.

"Oh thanks Lana." Lincoln said.

"No problem, bro." Lana replied.

Lincoln and Lily took off from the Petting as they headed off to the Mirror Shop.

A couple blocks away, Lincoln and Lily arrived at the Royal Woods' Glass Guru Shop. They walked into the shop looking at all the different assortment of glasses and mirrors as they began looking for Lola, but their search didn't last long as they soon found their sister standing in front of large mirror as she appears to be admiring her reflection.

"Aww now this mirror is just perfect." Lola said to herself.

"Hey Lola!" a voice called out.

Lola turned her attention away from her mirror to see Lincoln and Lily walking towards her.

"Oh hey Lincoln hey Lily, look at what I found this mirror is just the right kind of mirror that I would like to be mine." Lola said, "What do you think?"

"That's nice Lola, but I highly doubt that mom and dad would buy this kind of mirror just for you." Lincoln replied.

"It could be a graduation gift." Lola said.

"You're still Middle school Lola." Lincoln replied.

Lola let out a sigh in defeat, "Fine but can a girl dream though, by the way what are you guys going here."

"Me and Lincoln are on a errand to find everybody to tell them to come home for an urgent family meeting." Lily explained.

"Family Meeting? For what?" Lola asked.

"Lincoln got some important news that he wants to share with everybody." Lily answered.

"Really, now what exactly would you want to tell everyone?" Lola asked.

"He not telling because he wants to be a surprise for everyone." Lily replied.

"It must be really important if you want too surprised everyone, Lincoln." Lola said turning to Lincoln.

"Yeah it really an important surprise that I what to share with everyone at the same time, now will you please head home." Lincoln insisted.

"Fine I'll, but I want a chance guess what you want to tell us." Lola replied.

"Don't worry everyone will get a chance to have a guess at the topic I have in store to asked." Lincoln said.

"Alright what's the topic?" Lola asked.

"That's also a secret, Lola." Lincoln answered.

Lola frowned, "Lincoln, you're mean."

"That's what older siblings are for some times," Lincoln said, as he playfully started rubbing her head, "So you're heading home?"

"Yeah just after I done looking at the mirrors in the gallery because can't get tried of having too much of a good thing.

"Alright cool," Lincoln said, "Anyway me and Lily will go find the rest of our sisters because we already found Lynn, Lana, and now you."

"Well I know the closest should be Lucy, she at her weekly poetry read which are usually held in the creepy grave yard." Lola suggested.

"Thank you, Lola." Lincoln said.

"No problem Lincoln." Lola replied.

With that said, Lincoln and Lily turned around as they walked away leaving Lola to her eyes gazing.

(Transition)

A bus stops in front of the Royal Woods' graveyard. The bus door slides opened and Lincoln and Lily stepped down. Once they were off, the door of the bus closer and the door of the bus closer and the bus drove off.

Lincoln and Lily started making their way through the grave yard as they began trying to find their sister, Lucy. Looking around Lily started to get scarred as she tighten her hold on Lincoln's hand.

"Linky this place scares me." Lily said.

"Don't worry Lily we don't have to be here long just until we find Lucy." Lincoln replied.

"But how do you know when we'll find her?" Lily asked.

"We will I be able to tell when she near." Lincoln replied.

"Okay Lincoln." Lily said.

The two of sibling continued their search, but it came to stop as Lincoln started feeling the present of who they were looking for coming from behind them.

"Lincoln, Lily?" The presence asked.

Lily jumped in fear as she grasped, "Lucy!"

Lincoln turned around with a smile on his face as he said, "Ah Lucy, there you are."

"Hey." Lucy said.

"Hey Lucy." Lincoln replied.

"Yeah hey Lucy." Lily added, calming down from being spooked a moment ago.

"Anyway what are you two doing here?" Lucy asked, "Did you decided to join me and my group in our poetry reading, so you can entice us with another one of your poem, Lincoln?"

"Sorry not this time Lucy, but me and Lily are actually looking for you, well it looks like you found us first." Lincoln replied.

"Me, why are you looking for me?" Lucy asked, curious.

"There a family meeting at the house and we're going around to tell all of our sisters to head home." Lincoln explained.

"What's the meeting about?" Lucy asked.

"Lincoln apparently has some big news that he keeping a secret until the meeting?" Lily replied.

"Yeah what Lily said, so we're looking for everyone." Lincoln added, "So we need you to head home after your meeting is done."

"Hmm sure I'll go home." Lucy agreed.

"Thanks a ton Lucy, but I have to ask do you know where the others are at?" Lincoln asked.

"Luna and Luan are at the circus, because Luan talked Luna into going to see a sideshow act about a clown, who plays a ukulele and tell jokes." Lucy explained.

"Okay thanks Lucy." Lincoln replied.

"Sure thing Lincoln." Lucy replied.

With that said both Lincoln and Lily waves goodbye to Lucy as they exited the Cemetery and they headed to the Circus to find Luna and Luan.

Lincoln and Lily walked until they arrived at the Circus by the nearby railroad station. They walked around looking for any sign of Luna, Luan, or both. Continuing their search Lincoln and Lily soon found themselves outside with a sign that read, 'Yoko, the ukulele playing and jokes telling clown'.

Reading that Lincoln and Lily looked at each other knowing immediately that they have the right spot and processed to walk inside. Once inside, Lincoln and Lily saw a small size crowd sitting in stands as they were watching Yoko the clown as he plays his ukulele, Lincoln and Lily were looking around for their sisters.

"Well this should be the right place, but where Luna and Luan?" Lincoln asked, still looking around. Lincoln looked up in the back row, where he found them, "Ah there they are in the back row, come on Lily."

The two of them walked up the steps to the back row, when they got up they greeted Luna and Luan.

"Hey guys." Lincoln and Lily said.

"Hey lil bro, sup baby sis." Luna replied

"Lincoln, Lily, well the show did promise special guests and I guess they went all out." Luan said, chuckling at her joke.

Both Luna and Lily sighed in disappointment, while Lincoln gave a slight chuckle as he appears to be he only one have understood the joke.

Luna turned to asked, "So what's up?"

"We're looking for you two, we got some important news and we need everyone to get together at the house for a family meeting." Lincoln explained.

"What's the news about Lil bro?" Luna asked.

"Some secret that Lincoln know about and won't tell us about it until he has a everyone together." Lily answered.

"Lincoln keeping a secret it must be important like the time we found out that Ronnie Anne was picking on him." Luan replied.

"Dude remember we're not to mention Ronnie Anne around Lincoln." Luna stated.

"Oh yeah sorry Lincoln." Luan apologized.

"It's okay Luan I don't mind and it's been a while so I'm fine with it." Lincoln said, "Anyway will you guys be at home?

"Sure I'll go home." Luna replied.

"You can expect to see me their as well Lincoln." Luan added.

"Alright, we got to go." Lincoln replied.

"Hey Lincoln, if you're looking the others I'm sure that Leni said something about spending the day at the day at the mall trying out and buying new clothes at her favorite clothes store." Luna said.

"Thanks you, guys see you at home." Lincoln replied.

"See you later Lil bro, you too, baby sis." Luna said.

"Bye you two." Luan added.

Lincoln and Lily waves goodbye to Luna and Luan as they walked down the steps exiting the Circus tent.

The two of them took another bus ride over to the Mall as they looked to find Leni, but they were surprised to see that she wasn't there and without any other leads, Lincoln and Lily began walking along the sidewalks and we're hoping to find her.

"Ah Lincoln I'm getting tired of walking." Lily complained.

"Here Lily, you can ride on my back." Lincoln replied getting down on his knee.

Lily climbed on Lincoln's back, "Thank Linky."

"No problem Lily," Lincoln replied getting up, "Now let's get going."

Lincoln started walking to again, but stopped as a familiar pink vehicle pulled up besides him, he looked to see the side window roll down as it revealed to be none other then the sister he was looking for Leni.

"Hey guys." She said, happily.

"Leni?!" Lincoln said confused.

"That's my name I think, because it was what everybody calls me." Leni replied, "So what are you guys doing?"

"We're looking for you, first we went the Mall, but you weren't there so we decided to walk home and see if you we're already there." Lincoln explained.

"Lincoln I not home I'm right here." Leni replied.

"I know that now, anyway where are you heading Leni?" Lily asked.

"I'm heading home now, I went to my job to turn in some reports for my bosses, but now I'm going home, so would you two like a ride." Leni offered.

"Yeah." Lily and Lincoln said, unison.

"Cool get in." Leni replied.

Lincoln and Lily opened the door and took seat in the car Lincoln took a seat in the front, while he placed Lily in the backseat. "Oh, Lincoln speaking of the Mall look at what I brought," Leni said, pulling out a baby blue dress, "Don't you think it's gorgeous, I wonder who designed it.

Looking closer Lincoln saw that there was a tagged as he read out loud, "Designed by. Leni Loud."

"Hey whoever made this dress has the exact same name on me same name as me and the same type of style I got to me this person." Leni said.

"Maybe some other time Leni, but right now we should really be heading home." Lincoln stated.

"Oh right, let's go." Leni replied.

With that Leni restarted up her car and began driving them home.

Arriving home, Lincoln, Lily and Leni got out the car and walked out inside the house. Walking through the front door of the house, the three were meet with all their sisters from earlier as they were gather around the couch along with their parents.

"Hey everyone, its good to have you here." Lincoln said.

"What's going on son, what is this rumor about some news you need to tell us?" Lynn Sr asked.

"Don't worry it'll all be explained soon since we have everyone here- wait a minute where Lisa?" Lincoln asked.

"I'm right here." A voice said.

Everyone turned to see their second youngest and the smartest member of the family, Lisa Loud, standing by the stairway.

"Lisa, where have you been?" Lincoln asked.

"I've been currently spending the majority of my time in my confined space researching reports for future generations of scholars." Lisa explained. Everyone gave her a look of confusion and Lisa sighed, "I was in my room looking for assignments for my new students after school."

"Okay make sense." Lincoln replied, "Anyway can you take your seat Lisa, so that this family meeting can finally begin."

Lisa didn't bother to reply just did as she asked and took a seat along with the others.

"Good everybody is finally here, now we can get this meeting started." Lincoln said, happily.

"Alright, so Lincoln what is this important that you want to tell us?" Lynn Sr asked.

"Okay well you see earlier today I received some really great news and it involves an all expenses paid overseas trip for the entire family." Lincoln said.

Hearing that the entire family got stood their in shock and then their shock was soon replaced by excitement as they all the sisters started cheering.

"That's awesome, Lincoln." They all cheered.

"Yeah thanks guys." Lincoln replied.

"So where are we going?" Lola asked, "And remember I got first guest so I want to say, Paris."

"Nice guess, but no." Lincoln replied.

"London?" Luna asked.

"No."

"Ireland?" Lana asked.

"No."

"Hawaii?" Leni asked.

"No."

"Egypt?" Lisa asked.

"No."

"Europe?" Luan asked

"No."

"Australia?" Lynn asked.

"No."

"Disneyland?" Lily asked.

"No."

"Transylvania?" Lucy asked.

"No."

"Oh come on Lincoln, we guessed the best places we can think of and none of us was right, so can you at least tell us if one of us was at least closest to guessing we were right?" Lola asked.

"Yes actually the closest one was Lynn." Lincoln said.

"Alright we give up just tell us already." Lola replied.

"Tokyo, Japan!" Lincoln said, excited.

"Tokyo?" They all asked.

"Yes Tokyo, Japan, the Land of the Rising Sun, home of the Godzilla and Kung-Fu movies. That Tokyo." Lincoln said.

Everybody looked at him in shock.

"What aren't you guys excited?" Lincoln asked.

"Well of course we're excited about going on the trip Lincoln, but in Tokyo we'll have so much trouble trying figure out our way around that city." Lynn said.

"Plus there would be nothing for us to do." Lola added.

"Nothing for you to do oh come there will totally not true." Lincoln said, "Come on in Tokyo, we can do a lot of thing like; Luna can add another type style to your music."

"Yeah that some I can rock with." Luna replied

"Luan can see how Japanese does comedy their way and show off some your own comedy." Lincoln said.

"That would global humor expansion." Luan replied.

"Yeah and Lynn, you can try to learn Kung-Fu, Lana and Lily, you two can experience firsthand at what it like to play with a Panda bear."

"I do like learn new ways of hurting my opponent." Lynn stated.

"I took care of a lot of animals before, but I never did get a chance to test my experience on Panda." Lana implied.

"Oh, a panda, I want play with one I want to play with one." Lily added excited.

"You will get a chance to Lily, also Japan also has a way different types of shopping malls and district that would wonderful for both you and Leni."

"Really?" The two asked, curious.

"Indeed, especially imagining you going to Japan, buying one of their most fabulous dress then bring it back here to wear in one of your pageants, you'll be the girl that stands out the most which will totally earn you first place." Lincoln explained, "And Leni, your bosses wanted you to get more cultural from different parts of the world, so this trip could be exactly what you're looking for to impress them."

"Hmm you could be on to something there Lincoln." Lola replied.

"Well I like it sounds so, sup per Lincoln." Leni added.

"Thanks, plus I wouldn't forget that also give Lisa the chance to learn a new language that she can add to her resume which she can use to teach more than just a chemistry teacher at her school."

"Seems like a task that intrigues my interest." Lisa said.

"And I know for a fact that Lucy has an interest in Japanese comic books also known as Manga."

Lucy looked away, but Lincoln could tell that there was a small smile forming on her lips.

"So anyway, you guys what do you say, are you willing to give the trip to Tokyo a chance?" Lincoln asked.

The sisters huddle up with one another as they began whispering on their decision. Soon they separated as they turned their attention back to Lincoln.

"Lincoln, after carefully talking it through we decided that we're in." Lola said, speaking for the group.

"Yes! You guys won't regret this decision, now go upstairs and pack your bags because we leave first thing in the morning." Lincoln instructed.

The girls got up and made a quick race upstairs as they went to start packing their bags, when they were upstairs Lincoln was about to follow them but stopped by his parents.

"Excuse me, Lincoln before you do anything we need to have a little talk." Lynn Sr said.

"Sure dad." Lincoln replied.

Lincoln took a seat on the couch.

"Lincoln, how exactly did you get the family a trip to Japan?" Lynn Sr asked.

"Well a while ago, I entered a manga writing contest which was similar to that comic book contest I entered a couple years ago and today someone came here earlier today to inform me that my entry made it to the final four so they're flying the contestants and their families out the for the final picking." Lincoln explained.

"So you're saying that you entered a contest to win a trip for the entire family and you're expecting for us to put everything on hold and use an all expenses pay trip to fly overseas to Japan to watch you in a completion which you may or may not win as a family vacation?" Lynn Sr asked.

"Yeah pretty much." Lincoln replied.

"Okay I can do this, what about you honey?" Lynn Sr replied, turning to Rita.

"That would be wonderful after all I knew this family could do something for the Summer Vacation." Rita agreed.

"Well its settled the Louds are going to Tokyo." Lynn Sr said, excited.

"Great!" Lincoln replied.

With that said, Lincoln headed upstairs to his room and began packing his bags of the clothes he was taking to Tokyo. Finish packing, Lincoln took a shower and headed to bed as he drifted off to sleep imaging about his upcoming adventure he is soon to have in a new country.

The Next day, everybody in the Loud House woke up bright and early as they hopped out of bed, got dressed, and grabbed their bags as they ran downstairs to loaded their luggage into Vanzilla. Once they were done packing their stuff, the family drove off to the airport.

The Loud Family arrived at the airport as they parked their car and unloaded their bags as they walked to airport entrance, where they were stopped by Buaro.

"Aww there you are Lincoln." He said.

"Hey Buaro." Lincoln replied.

The two shook hands and Lincoln turned their attention towards his family, "Buaro these are my parents; Rita Loud, my mom, and Lynn Sr, my dad, and mom and meet Buaro Aisha, he works for the company that held the contest I entered."

"Hello it's pleasure to meet you, Mr. Aisha." Rita said.

"Nice to you, sir." Lynn Sr said.

"It's more of an honor to meet you." Buaro replied.

"Yeah and Buaro allow me to introduce you to my sister; Leni Loud, Luna Loud, Luan Loud, Lynn Loud, Lucy Loud, Lana Loud, Lola Loud, Lisa Loud, and my baby sister, Lily Loud." Lincoln said.

"Hello." All the girls greeted.

"Uh hey nice to meet you lovey young ladies," Buaro replied, surprised as he leans down to Lincoln, "Woah Lincoln when you said there was twelve kids living your house you weren't kidding."

"Of course, I wasn't kidding about that, I would never kid about my family like that, plus I had another sister but she got married to her boyfriend and moved out." Lincoln explained.

"Really, oh anyway I got the tickets now let's get going our flight might take off at any now." Buaro stated.

"Alright everybody you heard the man let's go." Lynn Sr instructed.

"Yes sir!" The group replied.

They began walking through the airport with Buaro Lynn Sr and Rita, and the little sister were in the front, while Lincoln, Leni, Lucy, Luna, Lynn, and Luan were behind a couple distant to where they wouldn't lose their family, but their family couldn't hear them talking. With this Lynn took the opportunities to start a conversation with Lincoln.

"Hey Lincoln." She said.

"Yes Lynn." Lincoln replied.

"I want to know who exactly are you sitting by on the plane?" Lynn asked.

"I don't know." Lincoln replied.

"Cool because I want you seat by me." Lynn stated.

"Umm sur-" Lincoln started but was interrupted by Luna.

"Hang on a minute Lynn if Lincoln is going to seat by anyone it's going to be me." She said.

"Well I asked first." Lynn replied.

"He didn't answer yet." Luna said.

"Yeah because I want Lincoln to be my seating buddy." Leni implied.

"No because Lincoln will seat by me." Luan replied.

"Lincoln is seating by me and that's how it goes." Lucy stated.

With that the five girls were starting to get into an argument with one another about who would get the chance to seat next to Lincoln, which made Lincoln nervous that it would attract unwanted attention.

"Okay, okay you guys I get you all want to see next to me, so I figure out a way to solve it. One of you can try to guess the number that I'm thinking of that's between 1-100." Lincoln suggested, "So I'll started with Lynn."

"Easy that should be #1, because that's the best number when it comes to the game." Lynn answered.

"Uh sorry, but no Lynn." Lincoln said.

"What? Why not." Lynn asked.

"Because you're trying to figure out the number I'm thinking of not what you're thinking of Lynn." Lincoln explained.

"Ah man." Lynn sighed in defeat.

"Alright Luna, you're next." Lincoln said.

"Hmm, 27?" Luna answered.

"Nope good try through." Lincoln replied.

"Dang it." Luna frowned.

"Okay Luan your turn." Lincoln said.

"41?" Luan answered.

"That isn't it either." Lincoln replied.

"Man, I guess I'll leave the numbers to Lisa." Luan chuckled.

"Lucy." Lincoln

"99." Lucy answered.

"Unfortunately, that isn't correct." Lincoln stated.

"*Sigh* It appears I have yet to fully understand your mind set Lincoln and I've failed to guess the number you were thinking of." Lucy sighed, disappointed.

"Don't worry you'll probably get next time." Lincoln said.

"Yeah or you probably don't have to wait that long because Leni is next and I highly doubt that she'll get it right either." Lynn added.

"Hey don't be mean because there are a lot more to Leni than what other people think of her." Lincoln said.

"Fine." Lynn replied, rolling her eyes.

"Leni it's your turn to guess." Lincoln said.

"Guess what?" Leni asked.

"Haven't you been paying attention we've been trying to figure out what number Lincoln is thinking of to get the seat next to him on the plane." Lynn explained, annoyed.

"The number Lincoln is thinking of? You mean 6, right?" Leni asked.

"6, how did you get that?" Lynn asked.

"Well there are 11 siblings in our family and Lincoln so happen to be the sixth child in the family." Leni explained.

Lynn, Luna, Luan, and Lucy all looked at Leni in confusion as they didn't know that Leni was able to come up with that situation to come up with an answer. Lincoln was the first to break the silences as he smiled, "Wow that was smart observation Leni and congrats you got it right."

"I did?" Leni asked.

"She did?" The others asked.

"Yeah 6 was the exact number I was thinking of and Leni got it right, so Leni get the seat next to me." Lincoln said.

"Yes." Leni cheered.

"Man." The other said in defeat.

"Alright now that is settled let walk up so we can catch up to the others." Lincoln instructed.

"Yes Lincoln." They agreed.

With that they went to catch up with others in the back of Lincoln couldn't help but think, "Man looks like this trip might be a little more exciting than I thought."
