Hey what is up, it is I your Humble Narrator Tobi Yaza for those who don't know me, and I'll be writing this short little fic to get my creative noodle train going for my other work, and based on how good this gets it'll stay stuck in obscurity or I'll put it up for adoption when this is over.

Now without any further ado here's my first ever Loud House Fanfic and not so first Fallout Fanfic, now to disclaimers.

Disclaimers I don't own the Loud House or Fallout, the Loud House is owned entirely by Nickelodeon, and the creative mind of Chris Savino, whom I forgive and I consider it to be a sin for him not to work on animation, while the Fallout series is owned by Inter Play, Bethesda Games, and Obsidian Games, and I can't wait for their next space adventure to come soon.

17 Years ago

I wasn't born before the bombs dropped, so I never got the pleasure to experience life outside the Vault as my parents described it and how it was.

My mother would tell me stories as did my father how their fathers and theirs before them had a long lineage serving the American people as proud military men, and on my 10th birthday I said that if I was given the chance I would damn as well be the next one to continue on and carry out the tradition and give something to make my parents to be proud of.

I never got to meet my late grandfather, but from what my dad told me from his time at anchorage, he and my grandfather shared the same world view philosophy, and that is 'War. War never changes'.

7 years later

"Come on Rita, just one more push" said a muffled voice of a man, "Oh god~ AAAAHHHHHHHH!" screamed the voice of a woman as there was a sudden flash of light for our hero.

"Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Loud, it's a boy" said a doctor as they began to slice off the umbilical cord, "Rita you hear that it's a boy, we finally have a son" said a brown haired man as he held the hands of a blonde haired woman.

"Let me hold him please" pleaded Rita weakly as the doctors handed them their son, as they worried a little as he was a little more pale and his hair appeared to be white, though if he was a natural born albino I assume it wouldn't be bad for them to live in a vault.

"Rita didn't you say that the men in your family are always born with hereditary white hair" asked Mr. Loud, "That's right" smiled Rita as she cherished the moment to finally hold her son, "What should we name him Lynn".

Lynn thought about it for a minute, and although he can't name their first son Lynn Jr. like he wanted to, he thought back to when he made a bet with Rita's father.

They bet on 5 dollars over whether or not Pop-Pop would be alive to see his grand children, and that if Lynn was right he had to give him 5 dollars, but since he wasn't around when the bombs fell and any chance of hearing him is now slim, Lynn Sr. decided to honor his bet to the man today, involving those 5 dollars.

"Lincoln, his name will be Lincoln Loud" said Lynn as he looked at Rita, "Lincoln Loud, I love it" said Rita as their son began to giggle over to the name, "Lincoln Loud, I hope you're ready to meet your sisters".

10 years later

In spite of him not being a bit albino, I guess the closest people can say Lincoln has a problem with that contradicts the idea was him constantly stepping into a suddenly bright room, but then it was always a given for him to accept it whenever it's his birthday.

"Happy Birthday Lincoln" shouted his whole family plus their overseer, Overseer Grouse as they're celebrating Lincoln's tenth birthday with his family.

"Congrats boy your already 10 years old, and because of this, you're given responsibilities now starting tomorrow, are we clear" said Overseer Grouse as he approached Lincoln.

"I understand Mr. Grouse" smiled Lincoln as he was the only one who got away calling Overseer Grouse as Mr. Grouse do to him being the grandfather figure Lincoln never had and Lincoln being the grandson he never had.

Overseer Grouse turn with a smile as he began to wave his hand over to Lisa, the 3 year old genius, "A happy birthday to you brother sibling unit, with the help from Lana and permission from Overseer Grouse, we present to you, the first ever in its continuation of its model, the Pip-Boy 4000" said Lisa his currently youngest sibling at the moment.

It was expected to every vault resident to earn their first Pip-Boy at the age of 10, but to be given a newer improve model to RobCo's Pip-Boy in pre-war America was never thought or heard of .

The device was black on black, and instead of having any knobs or turn dial, it appears to be completely touch screen use, yet still require holotapes and discs as it fit perfectly on his left wrist.

"Thanks Lisa, thanks Mr. Grouse" said Lincoln as he knelt down to hug Lisa as she leaned into his ear, "By the way, I manage to find a copy of Red Menace for you to play with whenever you want" whispered Lisa before she pulled away.

"Happy Birthday son, we're so proud to see you finally turn that age at long last" said Lynn Sr. as he stood next to his wife Rita as she was visibly in the stages of pregnancy yet again.

"Hee-hee, you little sister says Happy Birthday as well" said Rita, "Or it could be my little Brother" said Lincoln as he went to hug his mom and rested his head on his mothers baby bump before feeling the baby kick.

"Don't count on it kiddo" said Lynn Sr., "Anyways go to the rest of your sisters, they have a gift for you, and we can open mine later on".

Listening to his father, Lincoln continued on to greet his sisters starting with Lori and Leni as they were standing next to an all white cake with the counter table lined with Nuka-Cola.

"Happy Birthday Linky" squealed Leni with joy as she ran up and hugged her little brother, "Thanks Leni" smiled Lincoln as he was unintentionally given a mighty bear hug by Leni.

"You're like totes gonna love what I got you" Leni said as she presented a rectangular medium sized box, "Wow, thanks Leni" said Lincoln as he began to unwrap to see that his gift was an interesting vault suit.

While it was none the less a vault suit with the numbers 26 on it like the very same one him and everyone in the vault had worn, but what made it stand out was its color.

While everyone else wore a yellow on blue jumpsuit with black boots, this was blue on orange and came with it's on set of Vault-tech one size fits all red converse.

"Thanks Leni, I'll try this on first thing tomorrow" said Lincoln, "Only for tomorrow Loud, only for tomorrow" said Overseer Grouse.

"I'm glad you liked it Linky" Leni said as she began to hug Lincoln again, before releasing him as Lincoln approached Lori, "Hey twerp, Happy Birthday" said Lori in a teasingly manner.

"Thanks Lori" smiled Lincoln as he accepted this is Lori still being herself all year round, "Here you go, don't say I don't do nice things for you" Lori said as she handed Lincoln a copy of Grognak the Barbarian issue number 3.

"Wow Lori, where did you find this" asked Lincoln as he's been meaning to complete his Grognak collection, "Hey in spite of how we tease you and what we say, we all read Grognak, and that just so happens to be my favorite issue" Lori said.

Hearing this really surprised Lincoln as he never expected Lori to share, let alone give a hand me down like this without their being some sort of hook.

So naturally Lincoln went to hug the eldest of his siblings and sisters, "Thanks Lori" Lincoln said as Lori stood there before genuinely return the love back to him in a hug.

"You're welcome Lincoln" said Lori, before letting go of Lincoln where he ran into Lucy and Lynn.

"Hey bro, happy birthday" said Lynn as she put Lincoln in a head lock before giving him a light noogie, "Thanks Lynn" laughed Lincoln as he got out of Lynn's hold.

"Here you go kid" said Lynn as she handed Lincoln a new baseball and a aluminum baseball bat, "Lynn where did you get this" asked Lincoln as he examined the new baseball bat, as this was never seen before in the vault.

"I made it during my apprenticeship with Mr. Lopez" Lynn said proudly as Lincoln began to feel the newly constructed bat and could feel like with this he could always hit a home run.

"Thanks Lynn, this is awesome" Lincoln said as he was eager to already play, "Hey later on, how about you and me in the main halls" smirked Lynn, "You're on".

"Lincoln" said Lucy as this got his siblings to jump as they completely forgot about her.

"I wrote you a poem" said Lucy as she began to clear her throat, "These walls keep us safe and secure, from a world outside that is now impure. Conformed to wear yellow and blue, that's something we all make do. But my brother makes things bright in spite of the colors we lack, be it orange or black on black"

"Thanks Lucy, that was that was your best work so far" said Lincoln as she was use to Lucy's poems, and could know they are improving through time, "I really try hard, especially when it's your day" Lucy said with one of her rare smiles.

Lincoln then slipped out to greet both his twin sisters Lola and Lana as they were bouncing in place ready to give Lincoln their gift.

"Alright Lana and Lola, what do you 2 got for me" asked Lincoln, "First of all kneel down" said Lola as Lincoln oblige, before Lana went and slammed a helmet on Lincolns head.

"What is this" asked Lincoln to Lana, "I made you a custom made Nuka-Cola helmet" smiled Lana before Lola went and gently placed something on top of the helmet.

"And I made you, with the help of Lana, a custom made crown for you to wear on your birthday, as today is the only day you're allowed to be a prince" said Lola.

Lincoln rolled his eyes before both his sisters hugged him, "Happy Birthday big brother" said the twins in perfect sync, "Thanks girls" said Lincoln as he hugged them back.

As for Luan and Luna, they don't need to really get him a gift as it was agreed and expected their gifts for their siblings were them providing entertainment for their siblings birthday, be it Luan's stand up and prop comedy routine or Luna singing music based on her siblings favorite artist on any string, wind, or drum instrument the vault had to offer.

Once he met his siblings, Lincoln approached his dad as he pulled his son aside from his party to give him his gift.

Now Lynn's job was to act as head of security, and as such had a means to pull certain connections and is entitled to unique perks for his family, like how today he's going to give his sons gift.

"So dad, what is my gift" asked Lincoln, "You'll see in due time my boy, in due time" said Lynn Sr. as they made their way towards the vaults lower levels, where Lynn Sr. had stood in front of a sealed entrance.

"Now this here, I need you to swear to not tell anyone, not a soul what I'm about to show you here as this is to be a secret between father and son, are we clear Lincoln" said Lynn Sr.

"I understand" said Lincoln as his father began to smile, "Very good" said Lynn Sr. as they entered to see some sort of shooting range of some sort.

"I manage to talk to Overseer Grouse and he has agreed to allow me to take you under my wing so that you may become the next head of security someday when I retire" smiled Lynn Sr.

"So starting tomorrow, you'll be training with me from Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fridays, and I figured why not get a head start on how to shoot and use a gun" said Lynn Sr.

"Wait I get to shoot a gun" asked Lincoln excitingly, "Sorry, but not even your mother would approve of that, so I decided to compromise by us using this" said Lynn Sr. as he finally gave Lincoln his gift.

Fresh from out of the box, never been use before, Lincoln was given a BB Gun, something that all American boys should dream of owning and using someday.

"So how are the 2 most important men in my lives are doing" said Rita as she came down and smiled with a camera in her hands, "Come son, let's commemorate this moment with a photo together" said Lynn Sr. as he and Lincoln stood side by side.

"Ok boys, now say cheese" said Rita before the flash of the camera blinded Lincoln once more.

1 year later

In spite of the promise Lincoln made to Overseer Grouse, he would wear the jumpsuit Leni made him on laundry day when he's got nothing to wear, and today just happens to be laundry day.

Right now Lincoln was resting on his bed reading more Grognak the Barbarian with a half bottle of Nuka-Cola, a half eaten box of Fancy Lad Snack Cakes, and what remains inside the box of a sugar bomb cereal.

"Poo-poo" called a small voice, as Lincoln looked away at his comic to see his 1 year old sister Lily sitting next to him with her teddy in her hand.

"Hey Lily, you came here to hang with your big brother" said Lincoln as the one year old laughed as Lincoln picked her up and sat her right next to him.

"You're in luck I'm reading my favorite, Grognak the Barbarian" said Lincoln as Lily, like all the Loud siblings, love reading Grognak.

Just as Lincoln was about to read, both he and Lily felt a tremor, "What was that" said Lincoln, before there was another one that was more louder and violent, before Luna ran in the room.

"Bro, thank god you have Lily" Luna said worriedly as she ran up to get their baby sister who was crying a little, "What's going on and earth quake" asked Lincoln.

"I don't know what's going on, but dad said to hurry up and grab whatever you can and get ready for anything" said Luna, before one light tremor appeared.

Luna made her way out the room as Lincoln began to slip on his red converse, before he looked under his bed and began to grab not only the aluminum bat, but his BB gun with all the BB's and a photo of his whole family, which extended to Overseer Grouse.

"Alright, I've got everything I can get" said Lincoln as he saw Lily back in their mother's hands, while his siblings carried various things in hand, "Lincoln where's Lily's teddy bear" asked Rita as Lily wouldn't stop crying.

Lincoln quickly dashed back in his room to get it, before handing it to his baby sister who began to calm down a little.

"Alright kids, I need you to listen to me and listen very closely, your mother is going to take you back into the Overseer's office where you'll meet Overseer Grouse, you'll be safe in there" said Lynn Sr.

"What about you dad" asked Lincoln, "Lincoln, I need you to promise me that if anything happens to me, please keep your sisters and mother safe as you're the man now" said Lynn Sr before turning to Lori.

"Lori, you're the oldest, so I'm giving you this, though I hope you do not need to use it" Lynn Sr. said as he handed his eldest daughter a 10mm pistol with spare ammo.

"But dad, I don't even know how to use this thing" Lori said as she held the firearm as if it was like a detonation bomb.

"Lincoln will instruct you how to use it, now I gotta go as I got a job to do" said Lynn Sr. as stopped at the doorway before turning to look at his family again before resting his eyes on his wife, "I love you, all of you".

And just as Lynn Sr. left so did the Loud family as they turned around the corner and made a dash towards the overseer office.

Amidst the commotion, Lincoln took note how everyone else was instructed or ran back into their vault rooms, while all the security officers or fathers ran towards the entrance of the vault.

They went up the stairs and made it inside the overseer office where they saw Overseer Grouse waiting for them, "Thank god you all made it here alive" said Overseer Grouse.

"Overseer Grouse what's going on" asked Rita, "I'm not sure, entirely, what I do know is that these men claim to be from the United States Government and call themselves the Enclave" explained Overseer Grouse.

"Are we gonna be alright" asked Rita as Grouse couldn't lie to the Louds as they are the family he's had since the day the bombs fell, "I'm not sure Rita, I'm not sure" said Overseer Grouse.

Soon Lily began to cry louder, before the Loud siblings she's missing her teddy bear, "Oh no, Lily must've dropped it while we ran here" said Luna, "No worries I'll get it" said Lincoln as he saw this as an excuse to get his dad.

While Lincoln slipped passed his siblings and ignored his sisters cries for him to return, Lincoln saw the teddy bear right outside the door, but ignored it as he really wanted to get his dad and escape from this hell.

He ran down the stairs and made it halfway through the halls of the second story before seeing every adult male and security guard that remained running back inside.

"Retreat back into your rooms now" shouted the security before Lincoln had witnessed a true horror show.

Anyone coming inside the halls where someone would normally would have to enter back in from the vaults main entrance was turned into a bloody mess from the sounds or rapid gun fire.

Amidst from all commotion and screams, Lincoln saw a man wearing a clean officer uniform, and 2 men decked in power armor wielding miniguns as they annihilate everyone in their sight.

"Sweep up the area down here, I'm going upstairs and continue my mission" said the officer as Lincoln couldn't move, he knew what he saw and yet he was frozen stiff.

"Well what do we have here, tell me little boy shouldn't you be with your mommy and daddy" belittled the officer, as this broke Lincoln from his trance.

"Where is- what happened to my father, he was with anyone else who went to the vaults entrance" demanded Lincoln as he stared at the Enclave officer.

"If your father was one of those fools who were at the vault door, then like those other fools he's dead" said the Enclave officer with a shit eating grin.

"You son of a bitch" Lincoln said as he gain the nerve to take out his BB gun and shot the Enclave officer in the eye.

"Ah, you little bastard" said the Enclave officer before he took out his plasma pistol and blindly shot at Lincoln's BB Gun, turning it into hot molten goo, as it slipped out and burned the 11 year olds hands.

"Damn it, I won't miss this time" said the Enclave officer as he aimed his weapon again at Lincoln, "How leave that kid alone if you want to get your hands on the G.E.C.K" called the voice of Overseer Grouse.

"Ah, the old fool who's responsible for all this" said the Enclave officer as he removed his hand from his eye where Lincoln could see not only his eye red, but the BB stuck in his very eye as it bleed out in a manner that looked like he's crying blood.

"Lincoln, hurry back to your family and take this with you" Overseer Grouse said as he handed Lincoln, Lily's teddy bear, "Don't want to come back empty handed do we, now go".

Lincoln hurried back to his family and didn't look back and regrets not thanking Overseer Grouse for his courage.

Once back in the Overseer's office he saw the overseer's desk had moved and shown a secret passage or exit perfectly suited for anyone to use as he saw Lori waiting for him.

"Lincoln hurry and get your ass over here now" shouted Lori as Lincoln did so, "Where's Overseer Grouse".

Lori only had to look at the pain look on Lincoln's face to know that he won't be joining them, "Alright let's go and hurry up with mom and our sisters" ordered Lori before closing the passage.

Running and looping back to the halls, Lincoln and Lori made it back where the rest of the Loud Sisters ran and hugged Lincoln with a few letting out tears, before saying things like 'We were worried about you', 'thank god your alive', and 'don't ever do that again'.

Once Lincoln broke free he made his way to Lily and gave her, her teddy bear which she happily took and hugged.

"Lincoln thank god you're alive, now kids we've got to hurry and leave the vault, as instructed by Overseer Grouse" said Rita as hearing his name reminded Lincoln of his guilt.

Hurrying where their mother was going, Lincoln saw them enter a room cauld escape supply closet.

Inside where at least enough backpacks containing supplies specifically to suffice for the Loud family incase this happened as Lincoln notice there were at least 5 more Pip-Boys ready to be used when his sisters come of age like he and his older sisters did.

This along with enough guns and bullets to last them whatever is out there and a strange device called C.A.M.P., to Which Lincoln wasted no time in throwing over his shoulder.

"Kids let's get a move on" Rita said as she held Lily in one hand and a strange looking brief case in the other, as she lead her children out the vault.

Turning the corner and discovering a latter to an escape hatch, Rita handed Lily back to Leni as she was the first to exit.

When their mother didn't say a word, her kids assume it was safe as one by one they followed.

Lincoln was the last to see and could understand what went wrong as his family was now surrounded by the Enclave, as Rita stood there with the 10mm pointed at the now open brief case.

"Ma'am let's not do anything we might regret" said the same Enclave officer that Lincoln had put his eye out, as apparent by the new eye patch he's wearing.

"Make another inch close and you can say goodbye to the G.E.C.K." warned Rita as the officer gestured his power armored soldiers to lower their weapons, "What are your demands Ma'am" asked the officer.

"Let my children run free, and you can have the G.E.C.K." offered Rita, "Mom no you can't" Lincoln said as he began to protest.

"Lincoln be quiet and Listen to me, I need you to promise me like your father, that you're going to always keep your sisters safe no matter what and ensure that they're always happy, are we clear" said Rita as she scolded her son.

Lincoln already guilt trip over nearly dying and letting Overseer Grouse died may have swayed him, or it could be that he couldn't find it in his heart to disobey his mothers last wish.

"Ma'am I assure you that I will comply to your demands, as I, Captain Vito Lorenzo, always keeps his word" said the now revealed Captain as Rita turned back and looked at Lincoln.

"Alright mom" said Lincoln as Rita tossed her son her spare back pack, "Kids run and whatever you do don't look back, and know that your father and I will always, always love you and are proud to raise all of you" Rita said trying to hold in her tears.

All the younger siblings cried, while only Lincoln and Leni cried, "Come on guys let's go" said Lori as she was trying her hardest to not cry then in there and leading her siblings to the unknown wastelands that is once known as Royal woods, of the Great Midwest Commonwealth.

Later that night

By the time night had arrived, the Loud siblings weren't loud as their name sake suggested as they had set up camp for the night, and were trying to cope what went on today.

Lori had a brief moment of sadness when they had ran for their lives, before instructing her siblings to set up camp for the day.

Leni had to take out a heart broken Lily, with Luna and Lincoln helping her throughout, before inevitably passed out alongside Lily after what happened today.

Luna was playing music on her violin of the one of the 2 instruments she brought, the other being the banjo, as she played what was in her heart that night on the fiddle.

Luan, couldn't think of a way to brighten the mode with any of her comedy bits as today wasn't a day of laughs or jokes, and had opted to do it by making sure everyone ate tonight.

Lynn had tried her hardest to not show any emotions, until she was by herself where she began to cry for the next hour, before coming back with their dinner that night, being rabbit.

Lucy was more down than ever and she and with all of her younger siblings, including Leni, seeked comfort with Lincoln, as she didn't utter a word vocally at least to anyone but Lincoln.

Lana and Lola had tried to comfort each other the best they could, and even with Lincoln being there, they found the whole ordeal to much as they passed out hugging each other as they shared a sleeping bag that night.

Lisa for the longest had never showed empathy till today as she either clung to Lincoln or any of her older siblings as she knew the reality, but couldn't help but hope for the better possibilities.

This was definitely the saddest day for Lily, as it pained Lincoln's heart for feeling like he failed her the most as she didn't sleep till much later.

Lincoln was to emotional to sleep and waited for all of his sisters slept and their security was set up, before he left them a note saying he would be back.

Using his Pip-Boy to guide him back where this day started, it wasn't until 5 in the morning that Lincoln had arrived to where he found his mother dead on the ground, and her head splattered all over.

It was heart wrenching for Lincoln as he collapsed and angrily pounded the ground while damning the Enclave, and more so Captain Vito for what he's did to his family that day.

In effort to gain some closure for not seeing his dad again, thanking Overseer Grouse, Lincoln began to dig and bury his mother in proper grave as it took him a long time to do.

By the time it was 9 in the morning Lincoln's sisters had hurried and made their way to Lincoln and saw the most saddest sight of their lives.

Their brother coming back to bury their mom and not seeing what sort of state of death she was in for their sake so they could properly pray for not only her but everyone back in Vault 26.

Hearing their footsteps, Lincoln turned to see his sisters before he ran and hugged Lori and began to cry like he never had before as all of his sisters circled around and hugged him telling him that they're ok and that they love him, while their futures in the wastelands is anyone's guess.

I'm gonna stop right there as this is the first chapter and introduction to what comes next, sorry I didn't give any detailed looks to any of the Loud Sisters, but I assure next chapter I will.
