Hello Loud fans! I'm NiteOwl18. You might have heard of me from my story Kunoichi of Royal Woods. This story has been going on for about two years now and it's at its fiftieth chapter. I'm taking a break from that because I want to move on to the next story. Originally this was going to be set between Loud universe and My Hero Academia. But I didn't want to waste my time working on one story forever with never-ending chapters. That's why I usually turn several of my stories to trilogies. I'm hoping I won't make the same mistake again.

But this story is going to be great. Since Spider-Man Far From Home is coming soon, I figure I get this story starts.

Before you begin reading, let me point something out. I'm not taking any stupid request. Sorry for being harsh. I have to deal with someone requesting Lobo from D.C in Kunoichi of Royal Woods again and again. They're anonymous, but I know it's the same guy. It got my a lot of trouble from people about me asking requests. For now on, if you guys have requests that actually deals with this story and not set it off course, I'll think about it.

Also for those of you don't understand the story, Lincoln's ability will be similar to Hercules. And I know Marvel have a character for that, but I have a plan in this story. I don't have any rights of Marvel's characters.

Now onto the story.

Chapter 1: Lincoln's Crisis

In the house of 1216 Franklin Avenue, in a house of thirteen people, four pets, and other, the Loud House have never been quiet in any other day. Inside of the house was empty. No fighting on the t.v remote. No loud music. No explosions. No Whining. No crying. The rooms are empty as well.

Except for one bedroom, whose door is ajar.

The last member and only boy in the Loud house was sitting in his room. For anyone who can guess why Lincoln was alone in the house, and no it's not because of bad luck. A look of Lincoln's face spell different then pretending to be bad luck to have time for yourself.

Lincoln peak his head to the readers and greet them "Hello. Fancy seeing you all here. You may be wondering why I'm here alone in the house. And to make your answers shorter, no it's not the you-know-what. The family left to see Luan's comedy act. I know I should've gone like the family wanted me. But I told them I have multiple final exams coming up before the month is over. I'm not worried because I study and prepare for the best. Why am I like this and not reading comics in my underwear? One work. A crisis. A crisis on my twelve year old life. Yes, I turn twelve two weeks ago. I never told my family this. It happened after I turned twelve six months ago. And I'm about to enter Middle School by the time summer is over."

Lincoln hop off out of his bed and left his room. The white haired boy drop to the living room. Behind him were the family's pets, Charles, Walt, Geo, and Cliff. The four pets saw Lincoln and his solemn expression. Sensing some negative aura from him, they walk till the boy stop and stare at the family's trophy. Each achievement brought on by both his older and younger sisters brought his self-esteem down.

Lincoln mumble "Twelve already, and not one I haven't achieved anything," He turned his head to see the family pets staring at their master with concern looks. Charles walked to him with a whine. Giving the doggy a sad smile, Lincoln pat his head, "Don't worry, bud. I'll find something I'm good at," A low chuckle escaped his mouth. "It's funny. You spent twelve years helping your sisters do their things and yet I can't do the same thing as myself."

Charles bark to get an understanding from Lincoln. The boy shakes his head sideways, "I can't let my family know. Not even my sisters. They'll try to make it look like I'm depressed and the last thing I want is to be committed in this house like a patient."

Lincoln and the pets heard the familiar sound of Vanzilla parking up outside of the garage. The boy said, "Family's home," The pets move to the front door as it opens and receive their other master's affection. Rita enter the kitchen and saw her son, "Hi Lincoln," She kiss her son's cheek.

"Hi mom. How was Luan's act?" Lincoln put on his everyday mask to fool his mother.

Rita then made a hiss sound through her teeth, making Lincoln rethink his question. "Was it bad?"

"You have no idea, brah," That was Luna Loud, who overheard the two talking. She was a bit irked. Lincoln saw the rest of his sisters in angered moods. He asked, despite the subject was a touchy "What happened? They didn't like it, Luan?"

"They did," The fourteen year old comedian spoke. "But some jerk didn't want to hear my "lame jokes" and insist I do improv. Wanna hear what he said? "Big jugs waitress in a casino offers you free pizza." I told him "No," and he called me a dyke and throw a bottle at my face."

Lincoln's flag raise to little brother's instance. "Are you alright? Did you got some cuts?"

"Nope. But the other guy didn't stop laughing when Lynn got through with him" Luan reply. Lynn Jr heard her name and rubbed her left knuckles with a smug grin. "He might have throw that bottle, but Lynn deliver a killer throw with the chair. She should've yelled "Cuts up!" She laughs with Lynn Sr backing up while everyone groan. "Get it? But seriously, the manager banned that sucker."

"He got literally lucky!" Lori Loud shouted. "I like to rip his throat if he thinks he can say those filthy words to our sister!"

Lynn Sr objected "Girls, I, for one, thinks that guy should deserve more than L.J throwing a chair at him and banning him from the club. But he would sue us if we try harming him."

"Just what we need into this world," Lucy sighed, starling the family from behind. "A white guy doesn't take responsibility of his actions."

Rita asked "Where did you talk like that?"

"The news."

"Well, you can't talk like that. You're too young."

Lynn added as she groans, "The last thing I want to hear is the duchess of doom and gloom speaking like some college jack-off who talk crap about the injustice crimes committed by the white man."

"Oh, careful Lynn, there's some people in the neighborhood who are rational of their opinions," Lincoln said.

"And have you ever meet one, Stickcon?" Lynn turn to her little brother with a low growl.

"No. But you oughta be careful what you say."

"I'm not scared of some overweight frad guy who lives in his mommy's basement and put a lid on what I have to say. I'm starving."

The family sit on the large table with three buckets of KFC ordered by the father. Each plate consists of a leg, a thigh, or both, mashed potatoes, coleslaw, mac and cheese, gravy, french fries, and biscuits. Rita said to her son "You should've gone tonight."

Lincoln took a bite from his leg before answering "I know, but I got finals coming up. It's my last day in elementary school. I gotta make it count."

"What for, dude? You're next step is middle School. You'll have three more years left before you enter high school," Luna reassure him.

"Plus you're totes smart, Linky!" Leni added with a smile. This made Lincoln blush a little.

Lori said, "You could've taken a break and come to Luan's act,"

Lincoln rubbed the back of his neck in embarrassment, "You know how people are when the end of the year comes. I can't put my work till the last minute."

Lisa fixed her glasses as she explains, "I admire your dedication of putting your studies first before advancing to the level of your average education, codename: Middle School. But like mother unit and Luna, Leni, and Lori all point out, your brain should ease up on studying for the finals and support the family."

"And that's coming from the nerd who try to get a lousy poop sample?" Lola scoffed, eyeing on her little sister. Lisa ignore her as she continues eating her coleslaw.

Lincoln sigh a little before saying "Don't worry. After my test is over, I'm free to spend time with you."

Lori chuckle before smirking "You sure you won't spend the time in your room reading comics in your undies?" This got the girls giggle. Lincoln choice not to blush.

"Of course not. I decided not to overdo it like time," Lincoln reply.

Lana points out, "That's what you said before Spring Break and you were in your room all the time," All the girls agree, shaking their heads up and down.

"That's because Clyde went on vacation to see his nana all week. And the gang couldn't make it to my plan."

Rita sighed in bitter "Honey, you really need to break this habit of yours. You just turn-"

"Twelve. I get it," Lincoln kept his tone in check of how many times his family have to remind him. Leni and Luna both saw how uncomfortable Lincoln was when the family mention his age.

Leni asked a different question to step aside the conversation. "Linky, did you have other plans in the summer?"

"Not that I can think up beside seeing the upcoming movies I wanna watch. But I doubt some are gonna be horrible," Lincoln pick on his mac and cheese. "Remember the Ace Savvy and One-Eye Jack movie that everyone got excited over?"

"All that work with us being on the screen for a few minutes and it still bombed!" Lynn exclaim, eating a piece of her chicken thigh.

"Guess some people didn't like seeing The Full House Gang on the big screen; say it ruined the movie," Lucy sighed. Although the goth did had a point, what lead to the movie being a failure was the plot and dialogue into the movie, follow by cliche decisions.

Lola puts her voice on the conversation "Movies today are nothing but the next installment that is likely a big failure, a reboot, or a remake."

Leni hummed a smile "Still, it's nice to put a lot of effort in what Hollywood is doing."

"But not enough effort!" Lynn yell, munching the leg like a dog. "Still, that doesn't mean I wanna see a movie where Hollywood doesn't betrayed us like always."

"Name one," Lana said.

Lisa brag "I can name a million theatrical cinemas that was box office failure."

"Let's not, Lisa," Lynn Sr stopped. He eye on his entire daughters. "As much as the family wants to see the best movie in the summer, you girls have to lived up your promises of passing the grade."

Luna waved her hand in a chill manner "No sweet, pops. We've been preparing my finals on my off days. We got this in the bag."

"And I'm glad after my final tests, no more high school. Just moving to my dream college with my Bobby," Lori swoon of her future already set in motion.

Rita place her hand next to her first born daughter's shoulder and smile warmly, "And we're proud of you, honey! Oooh, my little girl is going to college!" She side hug Lori while Lynn Sr tearfully cry in happiness and the rest of Loud sisters offer their admiration for her. Lincoln smile while giving some wisdom words. But behind that smile was the bitterness and gloomy he held back in his bedroom. He didn't see both Leni and Luna looking at the white haired boy before turning to each other, indicate they'll talk to him at night.

Lincoln returns to his bedroom after brushing his teeth. He wears his orange pajamas. He said to himself "Another day gone," He pulls the bedsheet before hearing the door knock.

"Lincoln? It's me and Leni. Do you mind if we come in," That was Luna. Lincoln didn't seem surprised to see his favorite sisters. Lincoln opened the door and the two eldest sister enter.

They sat down on his bed. Luna said "You alright, dude? You were quiet during dinner."

Lincoln shook his head, "I'm ok, Luna. Just stress about my finals," He felt Leni grabbing his hand. Her voice lower in concern.

"Linky, don't lie. You promised not to lie to me and Luna," She console him. Lincoln gave in at the second born sister's request.

Sitting down between them, he began "You ever felt like your life isn't turning out the way it is? You listen to your parents, go to school, learn something and always know right and wrong. It felt good but after sometime, it's the same thing over and over. What I'm saying is I'm having a crisis."

"A crisis?" Luna repeated. Her eyes narrow. "Is someone harassing you? If it's that bloke Chandler again, I'm gonna break his ears!"

"No!" Lincoln shouted, starling the two sisters. He lower his voice quickly to not let the others hear them. "I mean, no. No one is messing with me. Have you two know what a mid-life crisis is?"

Leni said "Isn't that what old people get when they're sad with their lives?" Lincoln look at Leni in surprise to hear her understand. "But what does being old have to do with you? You're not old, even when you have that cute white hair."

Luna took time to understand what Lincoln meant. She corrected "Leni, I think the little dude is experiencing the same thing as what old people face, But why?"

"Let's face facts. I'm twelve. I'm about to enter middle school. Everyone is moving a grade up. Lori's moving to college. And on top of all that, I still haven't accomplished anything."

"That's not true, dude," Luna argue. "What about that comic you and Clyde made based on us? That's an accomplishment."

"It's just one comic I thought off. And I used to take pride out of that. And don't get me started on the whole "King of the Cons" disaster," Lincoln lower his eyebrows, flinching both eldest sisters how he and Clyde got the worse roles in the movie while the rest got the big roles for the cameos. Their attention return as Lincoln's face turn sad. "But when I turned twelve, it's like something convince me about my future. There was this door I didn't saw and it opened my eyes how much time my future is slipping. I like helping you guys, but when I try and find my talent, I get no result," His hands clutch his pants as he tries to not muster his tears from letting out. "I'm really scared, Luna and Leni. What if I can't find my talent? What if I tried really hard and I kept failing? What if it's too late?"

"Oh, Lincoln," Luna and Leni gave Lincoln a hug, feeling their hearts streams pull from his little sob story. "If you're like this, then why you didn't come to us?"

"I didn't want to be a pest," Lincoln shiver from his tiny tears.

"But you're not a pest, Linky," Leni cooed, rubbing his cowlick. "You're our little brother. Is that why you didn't want come to Luan's act?"

"I didn't want the family to see me like this. It hurts, you know. Seeing you guys talented and bringing home an achievement, it's like I'm nothing but a stranger in your shadows," They pull apart to see Lincoln's tears coming out more. "Do you think...I can find a talent...even if I'm a late bloomer?"

"Of course, Linky!" Leni soothed him, her tears coming out her own eyes. "Some people don't start out their talent young. Even if they're seven, nine, or twelve, it's not too late! They're still young."

"But I'm twelve," He reminded. "Which means I'm one year close to being a teenager."

"And what's stopping you?" Luna said, finding it nonsense. "You're the Man with the Plan. The Jack in our family. There's nothing embarrassing to be a late bloomer. Most musicians weren't big time prodigies; they discover talent in their own way. You can too."

Lincoln nod his head a little. His crying stop but his worries are still in his mind. "What if I do find my talent and it's not what I hope? What if my family are against it?" He said. His family might have objections about what Lincoln is following his path to.

"If you find your talent and they're against it," Luna said, determined. "We'll talk to them. In the meantime, tell us first if you feel like it."

"Thanks Luna," Lincoln said with a small smile. Luna return a smile as well and plant a kiss on his forehead. He releases a clear breath. "I feel better. Thanks, you two."

Leni offered "You want us to sleep with you?"

Lincoln blush a little before clearing his head "N-Nah, that's alright, Leni."

Leni then pout "What, you're twelve and you don't want to sleep with your big sister?"

"I'm good. I don't think the family would like it to see you and Luna sleeping with me," He said, making the two laugh.

Luna pinch his cheek, "That's suck. I like how you want us to sleep with you," A grin appear in her face. "I seem to remember you like to sleep on top of my chest and hug Leni throughout the night."

Lincoln laid out a huge yawn and drag his giggling sisters out of his room. "It's late. You two should head back to your rooms before Lori and Luan finds out."

Luna ruffle Lincoln's hair, "Night, bro,"

Leni kissed him on the cheek, "Goodnight Linky!"

Lincoln closed the door and felt the kiss mark Leni left behind. From words of encouragement to kissing on the cheeks, they were great lifting the boy's spirits. He enter the bed and cover his body with his sheet. He looked up at the ceiling with no more worries about his future. As he let his eyes close, he heard himself speak, "I'm going to find out what my talent is. Whatever it is, I can become something more than just being a figment from my sister's shadow."
