Chapter 1: Don't be foolish

Luan slept peacefully in the bed of her suburban home, snoring and chuckling in her sleep as she dreamt of various jokes and comedy gags. It was all so normal and quiet.

Until her alarm clock went off at the stroke of 6:00 in the morning. Her arm instantly hit the snooze button and turned it off, silencing the blaring tones. Her eyes snapped open as an evil expression formed on her face. She got up and walked coldly to the calendar on the wall by her closet and double checked the date. Circled in red was her favorite day of the whole year, and for her family, the worst of theirs. "APRIL FOOLS DAY!" She gleefully shouted.

Every year, Luan always took April fools day to the extreme and performed what the Louds called "Prankageddon". She had quite the day planned this year, especially with a bomb of caramel ready to be placed in the fridge. Luan didn't even bother to change out of her yellow pajamas as she ran down to the kitchen to try and snag a seat for the show to unfold.

"This is going to be a STICKY situation for them this time!" She giggled as she got some cereal and pretended to get breakfast as normal. She sat in the chair and waited. And waited, and waited. But after 10 minutes of silencing and eating cornflakes, not a single sound was heard throughout the house. "That's weird… they usually wake up and start panicking." She wondered to herself. "Come on, guys you shouldn't JOKE under the pressure. It would be FOOLISH to just hide from me." She joked to herself while calling for her family.

Curiosity slowly overtook her as she went from room to room looking for her sisters, brother, and parents. But not a one was present in the whole house. "Wow, I must have been TOO on my game to scare them away completely." Luan reasoned with the absence of her family. She felt upset that they had vanished without a single trace of their existence, it was as if they suddenly ceased to be and only their possessions and rooms were what remained in the world.

Not even the family pets and the reptiles of her sister, Lana, were in the house.

A small frown crept on her face, but then an idea popped into her head. "Actually, I shouldn't let this ruin my BUZZ." She laughed as she ran back up to her room. In a couple of minutes, she was fully dressed in her everyday clothes of a white shirt and yellow skirt. She pinned on a gag squirt flower and slipped on a joy buzzer as she prepared to take April Fools day to the streets.

Luan went downstairs and ran out the door of her house. "Look out, Royal Woods! I ain't FOOLING around!" She laughed wickedly like the evil clown she embraced on the first of the month.

But as she left laughing to herself, a figure observed her from afar. It reached into the pocket of its thick coat and pulled out a picture of the whole Loud family together, smiling in front of their home. And Luan's head was circled with red marker. The shadow grunted in response. "There she is…" It hummed.

"…My target."
