Author's Note: Alright, my first Loud House story!
Full Summary: Lincoln isn't as successful as his sisters, or have any special skills like them. However, when you have an invisible ghost that can stop time and punch your enemies into oblivion, Lincoln is quite content with having his loyal stand by his side. Unfortunately for Lincoln, with great power comes great responsibility as he must defend Royal Woods from enemy stand users while keeping his powers secret from his family and befriends a white-haired man that's closer to him than he thinks.
Loud House with some JoJo's Bizarre Adventure elements in it.
Quick Note: Lincoln's The World is a bit different. It has an orange body instead of it being yellow, but it still retains its dark greyish skin(It's based on the anime version of the Dio vs. Jotaro battle) It pretty much has the same stats, power, and appearance as the original The World(where it's at full power when Dio drank Joseph's blood) just with a recolor, having the initials of "L.L" on top of its head, and it has spikes on its shoulders.
KONO LINCOLN DA!
Chapter 1: Za Warudo
Lincoln Loud crossed out the day of Sunday on his calendar that hung on the back of his door. He was excited to see his favorite show ARRGH! and was planning to intercept his siblings before they could get to the tv. The marker floated in front of Lincoln to circle the day of Sunday, however, while the marker looked like it floated in the air, it was actually being held by the hand of Lincoln's stand.
[The WORLD] hovered in front of Lincoln to cross out the day for him. It was a heavily muscled humanoid being; a sort of guardian spirit that Lincoln obtained a few months ago, after he was pierced by that strange arrow. At first, he didn't know what to make of it, but a little help and training from a man that healed him and who also had a stand like him cleared things up. Lincoln enjoyed the power, but he knew that he would eventually use it for justice, to become a real life superhero like Ace Savvy.
After awakening his stand power, Lincoln found himself to be a little more confident and assertive than usual. The teen did say that a person must have a strong will to fight to get a stand, which was strange as Lincoln wasn't the type to resort to violence quickly, Lynn had that covered. Even the teen thought it was odd that he gained a powerful stand, despite being a sweet and innocent boy that shrugs away from violence.
Ever since he started hanging with the teen, his attire changed.
Lincoln was wearing an orange hoodie that he kept zipped up, a black headband around his forehead with the letters "LINC" written in orange on it, black fingerless gloves, and a black belt with an orange belt buckle that looked like a silver medallion, but it had two orange letters "LL" in the middle of it. His usual blue jeans and white and red shoes remained the same.
Smiling at his stand, Lincoln grabbed the marker and put it down on his desk while [THE WORLD] vanished. He spent all day preparing to watch his show, gathering all the supplies and items he needed to distract his sisters. After a chat with Clyde and entering the hallway to satisfy the needs of his sisters, the boy made his way towards the tv, but realization struck when he noticed a certain goth sitting on the couch.
Darn, I forgot about Lucy.
Lincoln thought with dismay. He was so wrapped up in distracting the other sisters that he forgot a countermeasure to use against his little vampire loving sister. It was easy to not notice her as she is very quiet and prefers to watch things from a distant. To Lincoln, Lucy was a whisper in a room full of yelling voices.
The boy noticed that he wasn't scared by her suddenly appearing out of nowhere; in fact, it no longer bothered him, unlike the rest of the family that jumps in shock at her sudden appearance.
An idea formed in his head to get the little goth away from the tv by making her watch dad's old black and white tv. However, after plugging it in while Lucy waited patiently on her bed, Lincoln could have sworn he saw a creature appear in the spark upon plugging in the old tv.
His eyes widened upon seeing it. It was a tall and muscular humanoid like [THE WORLD], but it looked different. It was clad in tall head gear, park of a mask resembling a Corinthian helmet, armor-like plates on many large surfaces of its body, kind of like the armor plates on [THE WORLD]. Cables join the back of its head to its upper back and it bears a dark orange star symbol between the top of its head, its chin, shoulders, celiac plexus, belt and knees, and spikes protruding on its shoulders and ankles.
The "skin" of the humanoid stand was dark orange and its armor-like plates were black.
So, this is the Loud family house? Don't mind if I steal your power for a few months?
It spoke in a booming voice.
"An enemy stand in my house! But, who!?"
Lincoln frowned at the stand and summoned [THE WORLD] to defend himself. He didn't know what this stand was capable of and who it belonged to, but all that mattered is to protect his family from it. He felt the lust for blood surge through his veins as his body was surrounded in a yellow aura.
The intense thirst for battle and the urge to violently beat his enemy into submission was an alien feeling to Lincoln. He still wasn't used to it, but he was making progress as he didn't let the bloodlust get to his mind.
Ah, so this is your stand? I bet I can-
MUDA!
The stand shouted in a deep and masculine battle cry as it violently punched the enemy stand, attempting to land a swift uppercut on the stand, however, the stand quickly evaded his punch.
Whoa, you're pretty fast. Not bad kid, not bad.
"Dang it, the stand is fast. I'm gonna have to use my special power to beat it." Lincoln thought.
Let's see how you handle this, boy!
The stand clenched its fist and attempted to punch Lincoln's face.
ORA!
It shouted a battle cry.
Before it could make contact, Lincoln remembered in his dreams from last night of a blonde haired man yelling out a command with glee while his enemies stopped dead in their tracks instantly.
"Za Warudo." He whispered. The stand froze instantly as the sounds of a ticking clock slowed to a stop. When time was standing still, the world around Lincoln lost its color, becoming black and white. However, Lincoln and his stand retained their color.
Nine seconds.
Nine seconds that time was frozen, but it was more than enough to deal out a lot of punishment. [THE WORLD] balled its fists and got ready to unleash a barrage of attacks on the stand.
It got close to the stand and…
MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA!
[THE WORLD] punched the knight at high speeds; its fists moved faster than a speeding bullet and the noise of the punches sounded more like shotgun blasts and less like fists striking flesh. Lincoln called off his stand with a wave of his hand.
"Time resumes again." He said. Time began moving again and the world around Lincoln regained its color.
The stand was violently launched backwards with cracks appearing all over its armor-like plates. It transformed into pure energy and fled into the outlet when it got close enough.
Sweat started to form on his forehead as he gazed at the outlet. His family was in trouble and he had to defeat it. Lucy sat quietly on the bed, not moving a muscle when the house was plunged into darkness when the stand fled into the outlet.
"The spirits said that you called upon your guardian spirit when the lights went out. What happened, Lincoln?" She calmly asked.
Lucy is the only one in the family that knows about Lincoln's stand; she couldn't see or hear [THE WORLD] per-say, but to his confusion, she just knew it was there because of her 'spirits' or the ghost of their great grandma Harriet telling her. When he told the teen this, he thought Lucy was a stand user too, but she wasn't.
"It was to protect myself from the large spark." He lied.
Lincoln walked out of the room to find most of his sisters in the hallway; he couldn't see them, but he can hear their voices and knew who was there. Sighing in irritation, he took the bullet on why the house was left without power, knowing very well that it wasn't a normal blackout.
"I was just trying to plug in the old tv for Lucy, but it must have made the lights go out." Lincoln said to his sisters.
"Of course it was your fault." He heard Lori. After that, Lincoln was verbally assaulted by all of his sisters due to his mistake. Luan told a joke to calm everyone down, much to the annoyance of her fellow sisters. Normally, Lincoln would pay attention to the antics of his sisters, but there's a dangerous stand lurking in his house and he needed to stay alert.
Lincoln and his sisters followed a glowing Luan towards the door leading down to the basement, thanks to one of Lisa's experimental cookie that makes the person's body glow in the dark. Unfortunately, the effect didn't last long and that was only a prototype that Lisa created. Lincoln heard the sounds of electricity and scratching come from deep in the basement, so he volunteered to go down by himself after comforting a terrified Lola and Lana.
Luan was kind enough to let him use her camcorder that had night vision built into it. Lincoln stared down into the basement while clenching his fists.
"We can't let you go down by yourself. We should-"
Lincoln interrupted Lori.
"It's okay, I can do this by myself. I am a ghost hunter." Lincoln smiled at his big sister. Lori nodded as the white-haired boy descended into the basement. Lucy watched him go quietly as some of the sisters commented at how brave Lincoln was.
"Please protect him, guardian spirit." She whispered to herself.
When Lincoln reached the bottom of the basement, he took out his walkie talkie. However, it was an all-black walkie talkie, it wasn't his usual one that he uses to speak to Clyde. He was contacting a different person.
"Come in, JoJo, I need your help, over." He spoke into the walkie talkie. A few seconds later, a grown man replied.
"What's wrong, kid?"
"A stand has broke into my house and took away our power. I'm in the basement to deal with it, over."
"What does it look like, over."
"A humanoid stand like mine. It's dark orange and black with these weird stars on it, over."
"Ah, I know what it is. The stand's name is [THUNDERSTRUCK] and it belongs to me. Don't be scared, kid, over."
"Huh?" Lincoln said in confusion.
"Why is your stand attacking me, and how did you get two stands, over."
"I have four stands, kid...well, five if you count [BAD BONE] but it's a support stand. Anyway, I sent it to your house to test you. After all, an assault from an enemy stand is always unexpected, over."
Lincoln sighed.
"Well, can you call it off, please? It's Sunday, my sisters are scared from the blackout, and I want to watch my AARGH! tonight, over."
"Alright, Lincoln. You gave me quite a wallop earlier when you used your stand's power against me; ya damn near put me in a hospital after your attack rush, but I'm fine. I'm proud at how calm and mature you acted during the blackout, over."
Lincoln couldn't help but smile at his compliment. However, concern washed over him.
"Hey, Lincoln! Are you okay!? Do you need us to come down!?" He heard Lori's voice.
"Yeah I'm fine, give me a second!" Lincoln answered.
"Are you okay, over."
"Yeah, I'm good. I'll call off my stand and turn the lights back on, I suggest you run upstairs and get the remote before your sisters get to it, over."
"Gee, thanks, JoJo." Lincoln smiled.
"Also, I want you to meet me after you go to school on Monday for more training, over."
"You got it, over."
The sounds of static stopped as the lights came back on.
He heard the excited chatter of his sisters happy that the lights are on as he ran up the stairs. The girls may have a head start to the couch because they were in the kitchen and he was in the basement, but unfortunately for his sisters, they didn't have the power of Za Warudo by their side, and unfortunately for Lincoln, he missed his show no thanks to JoJo's unexpected lesson.
Author's Note:
I've had a lot of fun writing this and the next chapter is coming soon. I will be taking ideas about stand users and their stands; OCs that will either be friend, or foe to Lincoln. However, it will be later, not right now. Thunderstruck basically looks like Josuke's Crazy Diamond, but with a recolor.
