Team-L: Jumpstart
Lori was not having it today. Her lovely date had to be cancelled because some superpowered maniac decided to go on a rampage. It was as if she couldn't get a break. Right now, two of her sisters were down and Leni was still restrained. It was up her and Luna to take this guy out. "Alright freak! Come on and show yourself already. We all literally want to get this over with. Or at least I do."
Lori Loud. Code name: Barrier. Her power: Force Field.
In the smoke, a silhouette of someone began to form from the wreckage. "Ahahahaha! I am, Psychosis! The first and most powerful psychic villain in the world! I can control everything! And soon, not only will I control all matter, but all of humanity as well!"
The smoke cleared, revealing a man in his late 40's that wore a simple purple hoodie, tennis shoes, and blue jeans. He appeared to have some gray that stained his jet black hair and visible purple bags under his eyes. It looked as if the destruction he had caused bored him.
"Hey, dude, sorry to break it to you but I'm pretty you're not the only villain with telekinetic powers," Luna shouted as she began to get up from the asphalt. The guy had chucked her across the street after she attempted to bind him with a street lamp. She had to admit, the guy was tough.
Luna Loud. Code name: Heavy Metal. Her power: Magnetism.
"Even if you were the first villain with telekinesis, wouldn't that automatically make you the strongest? You wouldn't have any competition to begin with," Leni casually said, buried neck deep in the ground as her head stuck out of the sidewalk. The villain got her as soon as she touched the ground, immobilizing her completely.
Leni Loud. Code name: Airhead. Her power: Wind Control.
"She's right. You really did not think this whole introduction through didn't you?" Lori commented.
"Okay fine! I made it up on the spot. Well, sorta. I took it straight out of a comic book. But you know what? I do not care. I'm just here for a thrill seek." Psychosis admitted.
Luna and Lori were next to each other now in fighting stances. "Airhead, since you're facing him, I'm going to need you blow as much wind at the guy as you possibly can," Lori whispered into her communicator.
"But Barrier! I'm stuck and I can't even move a muscle!" Leni whined.
"Then use your mouth for crying out loud!" Lori snapped.
"Oh. Okay!" Leni began to inhale as much as she could. Once her lungs and mouth were completely filled up, she exhaled toward Psychosis. A huge, powerful gust launched itself toward the villain, knocking him back into a pole and struggling to move forward.
As Leni continued her wind assaults, Lori looked to Luna. "While he's distracted, I'll cover for the two of you. But I need you to do that trick of yours."
"Are you kidding? That'll take too long and we'll be toast by the time I'm done."
"It's our best shot. I'm counting on you Heavy Metal."
With that, Lori created a blue dome surrounding her sister and rush over to Leni. The naive girl's wind attacks were becoming weaker. She felt light-headed and was going to black out from blowing to long. Lori created shielding, prevent the various object Psychosis pegged at them from landing.
Meanwhile, Luna began her new move she had been working on in the dome. Metal object were beginning to pull towards her. As her magnetic field became even stronger, so did the attraction of items around her. Once her field became more power, Luna began fluctuating it, causing the metal around her to drop and rise again. More things began to pile around the blue semi-circle, even beginning to shroud her into darkness by their shadows. Cars were beginning to drag to her. Mailboxes flying to her direction. But the various objects never touched her, as the dome around Luna prevented them from ever reaching the hero. Arcs of electricity began to form around her body and Luna smiled. It was working.
Lori, on the other hand, was not having any luck. No matter how many walls spheres, or any construct she made with her forcefields, Psychosis always found a way to counter it. And to make matters worse, he found a way to gag Leni, who could no longer continue with her wind attack. Lori released her largest and hardest wall she could make at Psychosis. The telekinetic scoffed. Opening his hand, stopped the blue forcefield coming towards him. Clutching his hand into a fist, the wall shattered into bits.
"You've been bested, heroes. I am too powerful to stop. Give up." Psychosis chimed.
A loud rumbling noise of metal clanking against each other could be heard to his side. He turned his head and his eyes widened in shock. There stood Luna where the blue dome disappeared, smiling as electricity sparked around her body.
"What in the world? You had two powers all this time?" Psychosis said in shock.
"Nope. How about I teach you a physics lesson on electromagnetic induction. Up close." Luna responded. The rocker held her hands out and aimed it at the telekinetic.
"Heavy Metal's PURPLE BOLT!" Luna screamed.
A stream of electricity shot out from her, hurling to Psychosis. The villain lifted a car next to him, place in front him for shielding. This act proved futile, however, as a gas explosion was released after taking the hit for him. Despite taking the brunt of the attack, the explosion sent him flying back. He crashed to the ground with a smoking jacket and groaned in pain.
It wasn't over yet though. Luna came flying on a car's hood, dropping to where he was lying. The rocker girl rushed over to his body and grabbed his shoulder. "I knew you'd survive that initial hit. Good thing I kept a little just in case." Luna released whatever electricity she had left on to him. He body violently jerked till he was knocked out cold. Checking his wrist, she could confirm his heart was still beating. And there Psychosis laid there on the street, defeated and unconscious.
The news agents was always annoying. Tons of journalist, photographers, and reporters all across town gathered around the aftermath of the carnage. Psychosis mumbled curse words to the interviewers asking him questions as he was dragged to an armored van in custody. Lori, on the other hand, was responsible for answering to all of the interviewers.
"Barrier, what course of action do you plan on taking to compensate for the damages that ensued today?"
"The families and businesses affected by the fight will be escorted to a shelter or YMCA until Team-L repairs the entirety of all damages. And if you have heard the rumors, it only takes two nights."
"Barrier, as leader of a team with only women, what do you have to say for the young girls of America watching you right now?
"Find your inner strength and grow a backbone. Cause if you're not strong, people can stomp on you. And who wants that?"
"Excuse me Barrier, but are your team and the police department investigating the phenomenon of an unnatural increase of higher powered supervillains?"
"Yes, we are. We have just been informed about that today and we will meet Chief Howett to discuss such matters next week. End of questions."
The crowd of reporters flocked behind her, still begging for her to answer more questions. Lori rolled her eyes. It was typical, but honestly, she didn't know how they didn't get 'End of questions' through their curious, thick heads.
The rest of the girls on the other hand were recuperating. They managed to get Leni out of the ground while the ambulance was giving the two injured sisters treatment. Luan had regained consciousness moments after their victory. "Man, that was some fight. Psychosis really knocked me out of the park, am I right?"
Luan Loud. Code name: Portable. Her power: Teleportation.
Lynn however, was seen struggling to get back on her feet after waking up. "Sheesh, I can't tell what's making my head hurt: me recovering from being tossed seven blocks or waking up to Luan's puns," Lynn gargled, just waking up.
Lynn Loud. Code name: Quake. Her power: Shockwaves.
"I'm gonna say it was both for now," Lynn teased. "So, did I win?
"You got your butt handed to you by the villain," Lori simmered, having just escaped the horde of newsagents. "In a matter of seconds too."
"Dang. Next time I'll try to make my attacks less obvious."
"It's all about technique and approach. You got your technique down. Now get smarter on how you approach situations."
"Yeah, yeah, I got it." Lynn muttered as she began to walk away.
Lori looked over to Luna, who was sitting on the curb, resting. She patted on her sister's back. "I knew you could do it, sis. Good job. You really saved the day there."
She let out a light chuckle."Honestly that went way better than I thought. Still, he was right about calling himself powerful. I never saw such raw strength in a fight before."
"You did your job and you did it well. But you're not wrong about that villain though. Broke down everything I threw at him and didn't even yield once. He pounded Lynn and Luan with ease. I'm telling you, something is making these bad guys stronger. And whatever it is, it's mean our opponents are only gonna keep getting tougher to take down."
"And so we'll get stronger too. So we'll be ready for whatever is coming for us. Plus, we got the little bro joining us soon." Luna cheered optimistically.
Lori pursed her lips."Yeah, only if he can get a grasp on his power."
"SMASH!" Lincoln roared.
BAM
His fist collided with the punching bag, the impact resonating throughout the gym. The thing barely even moved. "C'mon! Why can't I do it this time?"
"Have you tried emotionally charging yourself?" Lola suggested.
"Yes."
"Have you tried to regain that surge of energy?" Lisa asked.
"Yes!"
"Are you putting everything you got into it?" Lana proposed.
"YES!"
"Do you feel possessed again?" Lucy questioned.
"That, um, no… This dang power of mine is too confusing. One moment, I feel like I have dad's super strength. Next thing I know, I'm noodle arms again."
"Perhaps it's only amplified hysterical strength. A phenomenon where you need to be in a life or death situation," Lisa advised.
"But I felt it this morning Lisa. When I woke up, I broke the doorknob to my room like it was a twig. And I certainly wasn't feeling threatened at all."
"You did say something about an entity or some sort leaving your body when you woke up," Lucy added.
"Yeah, I did. It was so weird. Like I had complete control over my body but I wasn't fully aware what I wanted to do. Someone else was in my head giving me power and orders on what I should do next."
"Maybe you have ghost powers!" Lana exclaimed
"Or maybe be you can only use it when you're tired," Lola suggested.
"I am also bewildered by this strange powers of yours. Perhaps the power scanner may not work but a something else. One moment my siblings," Lisa said as she walked out of the relatively empty gym, leaving her brother and sisters.
"Well, only one option left. Putting you in a life or death situation!" Lana concluded.
"Let's put a no down for that. I will not put myself in unnecessary danger Lana."
"But Lincoln, isn't that the very basis of heroism?" Lucy questioned.
Lincoln froze and fell silent before answering, "Um, well, uh. It's not the same thing though! I mean, you're not wrong but it's-"
"Lincoln! Think fast," Lana said as she threw a 10-pound weight at her brother. The boy's eyes immediately glowed green and he caught it in mid-air. Lincoln proceeded to single-handedly crush the dumbbell as if it were an aluminum can and let it fall to his feet. Lincoln turned his head and glared at Lana with an angry stare. The green glowing eyes that didn't belong to their brother never left its gaze on her. After what felt like an eternity, Lincoln spoke. "Lana."
The girls gasped at what was happening, succumbing to absolute shock. His voice had changed, dropping an octave lower and slightly monotone. But oddly enough, his voice incredibly familiar. But it wasn't his. Lincoln, or whoever it was, spoke again. "Lana, I told you not to do that."
When he spoke again, the sisters began to recognize whose voice was speaking through Lincoln, only terrifying them even more. It was Lynn Loud Sr. Their father who had died 2 years ago.
