Johanna × Lugar (crossovers)

Jump City

*Johanna, Hilda, Lugar, and Lincoln had just arrived in Jump City. Lincoln had decided that he didn't want to live in Michigan because of the guilt he felt for what happened to his family. He shut himself out of Lori, Luan, Leni, Lily, Ronnie Anne, Bobby, and Clyde. He even shut himself out from his grandpa, Albert, who was heartbroken. Although Lincoln did call them, and sometimes, they'd call him and check up on him.*

Johanna: Lincoln, sweetie, I'm so sorry that you lost someone that you loved.

Lincoln: Thank you, Mother Johanna......! I wish I hadn't shut out my friends and sisters......!

Lugar: Son, don't worry! They understand! They can see how heartbroken you are right now.

Hilda: They said that they could come and visit you whenever you wanted. You can even go and visit them, too! Like in Jump City or in Michigan.

Lincoln: Yeah, but I still don't know if I can face my own sisters after I was blind by my anger towards them! All I did was say hurtful things to them! If I had just listened to their side of the story, none of this would be happening! I can't believe my former dad lied to me that night at that Motel on April Fools Day! If I had just known, I would've put a stop to him! But did I do that?! No!

Lugar: Son, please stop blaming yourself! It was your former father's fault! Okay? Your mother and sisters would want you to move on.

Lincoln: I understand, dad......!

*They all embrace Lincoln with a hug.*

*Back in Michigan, Albert was sitting in his room at the retirement home. He was heartbroken since his daughter was killed. He was staring at Rita's picture and crying. And no, it's not Rita Repulsa. Anyway, Albert suddenly heard a knock on the door.*

Ronnie Anne: Hey, Albert. How are you doing?

Albert: Not good, Ronnie Anne. I feel like it was my fault in the first place.

Ronnie Anne: Albert, don't say that......

Albert: It's true! I disowned my own daughter without getting the whole story first! If I had known that Lynn Sr. was abusive towards my granddaughters and my daughter, none of this would've happened! I was going to bail my daughter out of prison, but when I went there, Jack, the warden, told me something heartbreaking.

Ronnie: What happened?!

Albert: He told me that he found Rita on the floor and.......

*He shuddered because it was too horrible for him to finish his sentence. Ronnie Anne pieced it together.*

Ronnie Anne: Oh, Albert, I'm so sorry for your loss. Do you want to go visit Memorial Garden later? You can leave some flowers on your daughter's resting place.

Albert: I'd like that, Ronnie. I could sure use some company.

Ronnie Anne: Anytime, Albert.

Note: The next chapter will be where Albert visits his daughter.
