7:00 am The rest of the loud family woke up. Lynn jr and lucy was woken up by the sound of the alarm. Lynn slammed the button on the alarm stopping the beeping. The tired lynn got up from her bed she the one that usually wakes lincoln up. She walk to lincoln's room then began to pound on the door. “Lincoln its 7 it's time to get up” lynn said in tired tone of voice. Nobody answered  the door she turn the knob then opened her brothers door Lynn turned on the lights to find no sign of her brother in sight. “ What the where is he?”.

At royalwoods middle school  the bus arrived. Lincoln and renee got off the bus, they both were talking to each other.  Renee look over at lincoln he was looking shamefaced. “What's wrong lincoln” she asked him. Lincoln looked at her then sighed

“ I feel bad for what happen two year ago about the comic book thing” lincoln confessed. Renee giggled then said “ that's okay it water under the bridge lincoln”. He sighed with relief knowing that was off his conscience. The two walked into the school.  Renee and lincoln went to the cafeteria. Renee pointed over to a table of people dressed in a black just like her. “Their they are” they walked over to the table renee and lincoln took a seat. “Lincoln let me introduce you to the group this is peter,kevin,daniel, david and finally amanda”. “ Hey guys  im lincoln loud nice to meet you guy” said lincoln. “ Sup lincoln i'm peter i like your white hair”. Lincoln gave a chuckled “thanks it biological” he replied. Amanda joined in the conversation “ wait your last name is loud right” she asked.

“ yeah why” lincoln asked “ oh my god your lucy sister” she said.

“ Um yeah how you know lucy”

“ well duh dummy she gothic and we are goths” amanda explained.

Lincoln cheeks turned red  “so lincoln want to be a goth” renee said.  “You wanna be just like your sister good choice” kevin told lincoln.  David asked lincoln a question. “ So lincoln do you know anything about the goth culture”. This question caught lincoln by surprise “well not really

I don't ask lucy about that” he  answered scratching his head.

“Well lincoln don't believe the stereotypes. Not all goths are satanist, nor depressed, they  don't dress in black all the time”

Amanda explained.  “oh” lincoln said. “Lincoln loud do you wanna join our group” asked renee. “ yes  i want to join” answer lincoln.

“ Welcome to the group first things first you need to get familiar to the goth subculture” amanda told lincoln. She took out something out of her book bag.

Amanda took out a cd. The album cover background looked book and appears to have a flame on it. It was labeled bauhaus and under the word bauhaus was the word crackle.

Lunch time came around lincoln got his food as he got out of the lunch line he notice renee and her friends. Lincoln walked over to the table the group welcomed him with open arms. He took a seat right beside renee. Across the cafeteria  his friend and right hand man clyde mcbride eyeballed lincoln with his new friends. “ Who are they and why is he talking to them” clyde wondered. “I don't know clyde its pretty suspicious he hanging out with the goth crowd” rusty commented. “ I don't know i think it nothing” liam claimed.

Clyde gave a forced smile. “Ha okay its seem crazy for lincoln to be a goth”. The  end of the day came earlier that day he called his mom and dad that he was walking home.

“ Hey lincoln” renee shouted waving in his direction. “ Hey renee” be yelled back  he walked over to them with a smile “ sup you guys going home” lincoln asked “Yeah we're about to, but we were all wondering if later tonight  at the high school.Then we will go to the cemetery you wanna join” asked renee. “ Sure what time asked lincoln” he asked. “Oh we will meet you there at 9:30pm at the highschool” she answered.  

“ Okay i will see you guys you guys tonight” he replied. Lincoln waved them goodbye and went on his way. The white haired  boy was about two blocks from his house when he pulled out the bauhaus album. He them turn in it over to view the list of songs on the disk. Lincoln reviewed the list

Of the songs but one song caught his eye it was named bela lugosi's dead. “Who the hell is bela lugosi ha only one way to find out” whispered lincoln. He put the  cd album back in his book bag then bolted down the street. Moments later lincoln arrived at his house. He turned his head toward the driveway he saw that the family van wasn't there, So lincoln came to the conclusion that  his mom or dad went to picked his other siblings up from school. Lincoln walked into the house, he ran up stairs lincoln entered into his room throwing his book bag on his bed.

He went over to a his radio, he open it up. Lincoln  went into his book bag taking out the bauhaus cd. He next open up the cd case then took the disk out. Lincoln put the disk in the radio player afterward he shut the lid then pressed the play button. Lincoln then clicked it to the fourth song. The song bela lugosi's dead begins to play.  Lincoln sat down on the bed he started to listen to

it for a good few minutes  then the singing started “White on white translucent black capes Back on the rack. Bela Lugosi's dead The bats have left the bell tower. The victims have been bled Red velvet lines the black box.Bela Lugosi's dead”. Lincoln didn't understand the lyrics but he like the instrumentals of it. He got up from and began to dance as the second verse started. “ The virginal brides file past his tomb
Strewn with time's dead flowers
Bereft in deathly bloom
Alone in a darkened room
The count. Bela Lugosi's dead
Bela Lugosi's dead”. A smile came across lincoln's face as he turned around towards the door he saw a shocked lynn looking at him in the doorway. Lincoln immediately stopped dancing he gave a nervous smile then replied with “Hey lynn nice weather we're having”.
