Origins Arc

Chapter 1: That Day

"Why don't we have a blast from the past, shall we?"

-*FLASHBACK*-

(*Present Lincoln - "Italic and Bold"*)

"It happened 1 month ago, right after the events of the awesome comic 'incident'..."

Lincoln was just excitedly walking back from school with his best friend, Clyde McBride.

Clyde wore circular glasses with thick black rims and blue-tinted lenses. He had freckles and black hair styled into an Afro. He was wearing black pants, and a yellow-and-blue striped shirt with a white collar. He wore black tennis shoes with three white stripes, and white laces on each.

"I still can't believe it! We were able to win the contest and meet Bill Buck!" Lincoln exclaimed happily.

"I know right?! That was so awesome!" Clyde said with the same enthusiasm as the white haired boy. "I wonder what's going to happen now?"

"We just have to wait for our comic to be made, I guess." Lincoln shrugged, but he did not lose his smile. They reached Clyde's house so the two boys parted. It only took about 8-10 minutes to walk back to his home so it was just a cake walk. Unbeknownst to him, when he passed some bushes, a figure peeked out and spied on Lincoln with narrowed eyes.

He finally reached home, still beaming with joy. He walked to the front door as he heard all the noise generating from his home and family. He opened the door and went inside. The first things he saw in the living room were his two older sisters, Lori and Leni. Lori was talking to someone on the phone, most likely Bobby, using one hand while the other was with Leni. She was painting her nails with light blue nail polish.

"Hi Linky!" Leni noticed the white haired boy and waved at him.

"Hey twerp." Lori did not stop using her phone, but still greeted him using the special nickname she uses for Lincoln.

"Hey guys." Lincoln greeted back as he started making his way upstairs, leaving the two oldest siblings to return to their businesses.

Lincoln finally reached the second floor. That's where he saw the chaos the rest of his sisters were making; Luna was shredding and rocking out with her axe in front of the bathroom door; Luan was giggling to herself while holding pranking materials as she came out of her and Luna's room ["Better watch out for that." Lincoln made a mental note, still having the smile on his face.]; Lynn, at the end of the hall, next to Luna, was readying to play a bizarre sport with the use of a basketball, baseball glove, and bowling pins next to the door of her and Lucy's room; Lucy was sitting on the attic stair, writing poems; Lana and Lola were arguing about something at the door of their room ["What are they arguing about now?" Lincoln mentally groaned but still kept smiling.]; Lisa writing equations on the wall next to the still arguing twins ["I keep telling her not to- Oh forget it." Lincoln sighed but quickly regained his happy aura.]; and Lily just walking around the hallway.

His smile grew when he took a second look at his sisters, it gave him a sense of comfort to know that his family had each other's back. Yesterday's events were one of the reasons to believe in this statement. They may get into each other's nerves at times, but they're still a family like no other. A loving and caring family. He made his way to his room, opened the door, went inside, closed said door, and placed his bag on his desk. He immediately face planted on his bed, really tired. He was so happy, he now only realized how exhausted he was after a long day of school.

"Wow...what a day..." Lincoln muffled because his face was on the pillow. He sat up and looked as the readers. "Hey guys. In a family as big as mine, things can go crazy...but I'm sure you already know that." He smiled and continued. "And yesterday was one of the days where we went crazy."

-*Flashback 2*-

"Flashback in a flashback. Weird, I know. Also, I know I'm breaking the fourth wall to the next level, but this next 4 paragraphs are pretty much the summarized version of Pulp Friction. It has MOST of the spoilers too, so if you haven't watched it yet and you don't want to get spoiled, don't read the next 4 paragraphs."

[And this is the author speaking. Thank you for summing that up Linc. But let's just forget what just happened and continue. Thank you.]

Lincoln and Clyde were showing a comic book to Rusty, Girl Jordan, and Liam. Principle Huggins confiscated the comic book because school time was meant for learning, not for doodling degenerate fantasies. Lincoln and Clyde were in the detention room. Lola and Lana freed them from said room. Lana pushed a janitorial equipment which was occupied with Lincoln and Clyde inside. They reached the principals office where they saw Principal Huggins. Cheryl came to the office saying that there was a situation in the gym. In the gym, Coach Pacowski was running away from bats which were provided by Lucy. Principal Huggins ran to the gym which made Cheryl go to the desk. Lisa distracted Cheryl with the use of the school budget. Lincoln and Clyde got past them and searched through the room for the comic. Lincoln found the comic book, only to hear Principal Huggins coming back to the room. They hid as the principle got the bag with their comic book in it and left.

The Loud siblings came out of the school doors and saw Principal Huggins already leaving in a golf cart. Vanzilla drove up to them which had all the siblings minus Lily in the van. They chase after the golf cart with music, thanks to Luna. Lynn threw a boomerang at the cart, only to miss and catch a raccoon instead. They experienced a little turbulence but Lori was able to regain the wheel. The Loud kids were about to pass through the intersection to follow the golf cart, they were stopped by Scoots, who was taking too long to pass. Lori and Lola got impatient which made the oldest blonde honk and the princess scowl and shout at Scoots. They only made it worse when Scoots made her scooter into slow reverse. Seeing as they were losing the cart, Luan got the slingshot of Lana and the banana Lola was eating, while making a pun in the process. She aimed for the cart and she shot the banana ahead of Principal Huggins. Doing so made the golf cart swerve out of control which made the comic book fall out of the bag and cart.

They got the comic book from the floor and got back on Vanzilla. They were about to drive to the post office, only to find out the van was damaged to even start. Leni was shown to have a sash like Eleven Of Hearts which was used for Vanzilla to be towed by a pickup truck. They arrived just in time to the post office and when they were about to mail the comic book, they saw Principal Huggins doing the exact same thing. All three of them were shocked, which made Principal Huggins drop something. It was a comic book, which meant he was also trying to enter the contest. They asked him questions, but he tried to run for it, only to bump into Scoots and face plant on the floor. They confronted each other, seeing as there was no way out, Principal Huggins told them why he took the comic and placed them in detention. As it turns out, he didn't have as much friends in his childhood but he had Ace Savvy. He wanted to thank Bill Buck for getting him through a lonely childhood. He said sorry to the two as he got his comic and went to his golf cart. Lincoln got an idea as they ran for Principal Huggins. They told him he got them a better ending for they're comic. Principal Huggins bought them a few minutes for Lincoln and Clyde to change the ending of the comic book.

Bill Buck just finished reading the comic book and was amazed. He read many action sequences but never with that kind of heart. Lincoln said that it was inspired by their Principal, who fainted by the sheer amount of excitement and happiness. Lincoln and Clyde brushed it off as the Loud sisters came in. All the kids gathered around Bill Buck to talk about the comic book. Bill Buck ended it by saying..."Whoa! This is kind of a...full house!"

[This flashback was kind of like a recap for the episode to the ones who can't remember it as much...so yeah. Now you know why it's here.]

-*Flashback 2 END*-

"Like I said, crazy." Lincoln ended as he got Ace Savvy Issue#37, took off all his clothes, and laid down on his bed. "With no homework given today and no tests the next few days, I can have the free time I want to do things alone and with my sisters." He popped open the comic book and started to read.

"I was just going to read comic books that day...until I fell asleep...and things just got a little weirder."

Lincoln heard nothing but silence in the darkness of oblivion. Silence, something he's not used to...until...

"AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

He heard his own voice and other familiar voices scream in terror.

Vroomm~...CRASH!

"LINCOLN!"

He then heard familiar voices, ten familiar voices, to be exact. Their voices all had the sense of shock, confusion, fear, relief, anger, and many more emotions.

"Get away from our brother!"

Huh? Lori? He heard a door open rather forcefully and then footsteps.

"Don't hurt Linky!"

Leni? Hurt? What does that mean?

"Stay away from our bro!"

Luna? What's going on?

"You really have the guts to be a 'brother' to us! Hahahaha!"

Luan? Brother?...Bother? What?

"Ya punks are really getting it!"

Lynn? What are they even getting?

"Your souls shall stay in the oblivion for what you are doing."

Lucy? What's happening?

"You mess with one of us! You mess with all of us!"

Lana? One of us? All of us?

"You. Will. Pay!"

Lola? Who are they even speaking to?

"I usually don't give in to inane human emotions but- you idiotic homosapiens are going down!"

Lisa? Who are they...?

"Ah bagoo ga ba poo!"

Lily? What...?

He tried to open his eyes, but it was glued shut. He suddenly heard fighting sounds. Crashing, punching, grunting, screaming, hitting, and all kinds of sounds when you hear from a fight.

"Lincoln..."

Huh? What now?

"Wake up."

Wake up? How?

"Lincoln!"

Lincoln opened his eyes and shot up from his bed, but he didn't scream. He looked around his room, he was still holding the Ace Savvy Issue #37. He also saw someone next to him, and that someone was his little sister, Lucy, holding a paper and pen.

"L-Lucy?" He was really confused of the situation he was currently in right now.

"Are you ok Lincoln? You were tossing and turning around your bed. Did you have a nightmare?" Lucy asked in monotone, but with evident worry in her voice. Lincoln looked back at his dream awhile ago. It wasn't really a nightmare from the sound of it. It was just...very confusing and odd for the white haired boy.

"N-No. It's nothing Lucy. Do you need something?" Lincoln started to put on his clothes while he changed the topic on hand. It was pretty evident for him why any of the Loud girls would be in his room, it's that they need or want something from him.

"Well...can you listen to this poem?" Lucy asked, still in monotone. But underneath the stoic face, she was worried for her brother. He was dodging the question; while she wanted to ask some more, she knew he wouldn't answer; so she kept her mouth shut...for now.

"Sure. Shoot." Lincoln smiled as he finished placing his clothes back on. He will always willingly help his sisters when they need him...well...not always...but you get my point.

"Ahem." Lucy cleared her throat and started.

An event that gives a great burden,

We accept even if uncertain,

A fight that ends with zeros,

Can change with rising heroes.

"How was it?" Lucy asked a few seconds after she finished the poem. She looked at her brother, who looked back at her with confusion.

"Uhhh...it's nice, don't get me wrong but..." Lincoln paused for a moment then continued. "...it just doesn't sound like a poem you usually would make. What's with this one?"

"Well...I went with instinct...and...I kind of got inspiration from the comic..." Lucy shyly answered, which made Lincoln surprised. Lucy, the duchess of darkness, as Lynn calls her; got inspiration from the comic he and Clyde made, which were somethings she doesn't usually like?

"Wow...that's a little surprising...but it's nice." Lincoln smiled at his little sister, until a question popped up in his mind. "Also, what do you mean by instinct?"

"I'm not really sure." Lucy replied with a shrug. "It just felt right to me to make a poem out of the comic."

"Heh...the poem's awesome. 10/10, for sure." Lincoln gave a thumbs up, which made Lucy smile.

"Thank you Lincoln." Lucy hugged her brother. Lincoln immediately returned the hug. "Do you want to watch Dream Boat with us? The others are already there." Lucy offered as they ended the hug.

"Sure. Let's go." The white haired boy and black haired girl left the room and went downstairs. That's where they saw the rest of the Loud sisters...who were squabbling and arguing about who Karen should pick to become her 'first mate' while the show's on commercial break.

"Who do you think Karen will pick?" Lola curiously and excitedly asked.

"Totes, Bryant!" Leni dreamily said as she thought how Bryant was so romantic.

"She literally has to choose Bronson!" Lori countered, having her own opinion.

"Blaine!" Lynn said while pumping her fist to the air.

"Brock dudes!" Luna answered back as she thought of what music and songs Brock could play for Karen.

"Bram." Lucy quietly muttered, which was not heard by the chattering sisters.

"Ahha ba goo." Lily smiled happily, watching her older sisters argue and chatter.

"Jeez. Why does this kinda remind me of that time where Clyde and I found out ARGGH! was fake?" Lincoln internally asked in his head and shivered as another thought came in. "And that time, I actually found out ghosts exist. Huh...wonder how Lisa's going to react to that..."

"Salutations there elder male sibling. Care to join us in our little entertainment session?" Lisa noticed and asked him, which made the arguing sisters notice him too.

"Hey big brother!'

"Hi Linky!"

"Sup bro!"

"Heya Linc!"

"Hey girls." He greeted them back and nodded as they made a space for him. He suddenly had a thought. "Wait. What about Lu-"

"You forgot me." Lucy suddenly spoke up, which scared the other Loud sisters, almost making them jump.

"Heheh...sorry Luce." Lynn apologized for everyone as they made room for her too, so both Lincoln and Lucy sat down and continued to wait and watch Dream Boat with everyone.

"Hey! It's back on!" Lana said as she and her siblings saw the logo of Dream Boat on the screen.

"'Water' we waiting for? Let's get this show on the 'shore'!" Luan double punned, which made everyone in the room groan.

"And now we set sail back to- Dream Boat~"

"Everything was fine that time...but apparently we weren't alone."

As the Loud siblings kept watching on the tv, they failed to notice someone right outside their window, waiting and watching them in the shadows. The figure kept looking at all of them, but was more solely focused on the lone Loud boy. He took out something from his pocket. It was a phone, and he started typing on it, as if he was texting, which he was. He finished and sent the message as he walked away from the window and the house until he was out of sight.

They kept watching Dream Boat until it ended with a cliffhanger, which was not taken lightly by the Loud siblings. Even if they were mad at the cliffhanger, they all decided it was time for dinner. Their parents were not home at that moment, Lynn Sr was having a 2-day business/cooking trip to New York to be a temporary chef at a restaurant there (which made the Loud kids dismayed and down casted because they also want to go their as well...but couldn't) and Rita ended up going with Lynn Sr. because her dental business trip also needed to be in New York (it made the Loud kids even more dismayed and down casted). Since their parents were not home, they left some money that's enough for two days, which they used some of said money to buy a box of pizza.

"We would like a '4 Cheesy Cheese Pepperoni pizza', please." Lori said through the phone, which was obviously to the pizza parlor. In the background, was her siblings with watery mouths and dreamily eyes. "Thank you."

They waited for a little while until the pizza arrived, the pizza guy knocked on the door, which made Lincoln go to the front door to answer and get it. That's where he saw the pizza guy holding two pizza boxes...with an ominous smirk on his face. But since all of them were hungry, they didn't mind nor noticed it.

"Thank you!" All of them said as Lincoln got the boxes and made his way to the table as Lori payed for the pizza. The pizza guy nodded and left without any word said...still having that ominous smile.

Now, if you remember Lincoln Loud's ABCs of getting the last slice, then you should know what was about to happen.

We now see all of the Loud siblings, even Lily, chewing and gobbling up on their pizza, leaving one last slice in the box. They see the last pizza slice and then we start with A. They Argue. After a little while, they decided to do B. They Battle. But since the parents aren't here, it took longer for them to realize the last one, which is C. The Coupons. They never noticed nor knew that they had another box of pizza...even if they never used any coupons in the first place. Most of the coupons were with the Loud parents, but they didn't mind. It meant free pizza and they could have seconds. The last two pizza slices were given to the pets, who at first fought for it, but soon shared it as well.

They finished their dinner and went back to the living room. Everyone agreed to watch something that was agreeable for everyone, more specifically, the tv show, Dessert Storm.

"That's when something suddenly hit us."

"Uhhh...who's feeling like they're having a headache right now?" Lynn asked everyone as she held her head in somewhat pain.

"I." Everyone all nodded and said at once, holding they're head with one hand in pain as well, which made Luna speak up. "Do you think it was because of the pizza, dude and dudettes?"

"Maybe..." Lana and Lola said in sync. The pets came in, also in the same condition as their owners. Everyone's vision slowly but surely started to become blurry.

"I suggest we should be primed to our bedstead so that we can revitalize from this sudden illness we are currently innervating." Lisa proposed while caressing her vexing capitulum, still applying the scientific terms in her vocabulary which was still futile to be distinguished by her blood relatives.

[Oh great. Lisa's rubbing on me. Who's next, Lori? Luan?]

"I literally agree Lisa." Somehow, Lori was literally able to understand what the genius prodigy said, despite the pain on her head and advanced words Lisa used.

"I guess a little shut eye can do with this pain in the head. You guys should don't 'mind' if we go up there now, right? Cause it would be 'aching' if you disagree. Hehehe..." Luan punned, which made the family lightly groan in annoyance. She's literally 'heading' there, wasn't she?

[...I'm just gonna shut up now...]

"Let's get to bed everyone." She ordered, which everyone immediately complied to. Because of the pain in their heads, they already wanted to visit Dreamland as soon as possible. They didn't notice a black car park in front of their house as they started making their way upstairs.

They all went upstairs, a little disorganized but they managed. They quickly brushed their teeth, used the bathroom, and all those other things you do whenever your about to go to bed. Their heads still hurt, but at least they were going to get a nice, peaceful, and calm sleep tonight...

"Was I?...Nope. I didn't. I wasn't going to get any nice sleep...scratch that...any sleep at all."

Everyone was already in their rooms at this point. Lincoln was the last one to get into his own room. As soon as he closed his door and reached his bed, he immediately face planted on it, way too tired and irritated by the pain to even say anything.

Right out side the window of the lone Loud boy, was a figure, not the one ominously smirking from awhile ago, but the one that used the phone earlier. He came near the moons bright light which made him visible. He was a 21 year-old, blackish brown haired man and was wearing a brown undershirt, black jacket, dark blue pants, and brown shoes. He seemed to be really nervous about something as he took out a grappling hook from his brown backpack.

"How did I get into this situation?" He whispered silently as he aimed the grappling hook at the circular window. He fired as a grapple shot up and grabbed on the window. He climbed in to the circular window and miraculously fit in it. He entered the room of the white haired boy and looked at the deep sleeping form of said boy. He grabbed something from his bag, it was a cloth and a sack.

He reached and grabbed Lincoln by the mouth using the cloth. Lincoln immediately woke up from this sudden movement and struggled against the hand that was pressed against his face.

"Sorry kid. Just doing my job." The intruder whispered as Lincoln slowly drifted away in to unconsciousness. He finally fell unconscious as the man placed him inside the sack. He got out of the house the same way he got in. The man carried the sack on his shoulders as he entered a black car. He quickly but silently turned on the car and drove away.

Inside the house, Lisa peaked out of her room.

"Where was that sound wave coming from?" Lisa questioningly and annoyingly asked while holding a green filled syringe. "Must be some kind of stray varmint outside. I must get back to finishing my antidote. I can not hibernate with this laceration in my systems." She just shrugged and went back in to her room.


Lisa was just waking up from her sleep. She felt great and she did not have the feeling of any kind of pain in her head or body.

"It seems my nullifier was a rousing success." Lisa proudly praised herself but then turned to a questioning look. "But why would the flat, open-faced baked pie have some sort of acidity in it?" She asked herself as she brainstormed millions of possibilities. She snapped out of her thoughts as she heard multiple groans from the outside and one small cute groan inside her room. She went to check on Lily, who looked like she was better than last night.

"I see that you also had good suspension of consciousness Lily." Lisa smiled, seeing her little sister ok. She may be a mad scientist, but that doesn't mean she doesn't have a heart. "Good thing I gave you the anti virus last night. Now I must give it to our older sibling units."

Lisa grabbed 9 small green filled syringes/pills which she placed in her pockets, then her only younger sister and they both went out of the room. That's where they saw the rest of the sisters in the middle of the hall...looking disheveled, tired, unkempt, etc. The general thing was, they were not looking too good.

"Uhhh...even with sleep, the pain is still here mates." Luna groggily said as they all held their head.

"Why must life torment us in so many ways?." Lucy asked, her monotone voice breaking with the replacement of agony. Lola was the first one to notice the genius prodigy and cute baby.

"Why do you look like you two had a good sleep?" Lola asked as she tried to shake the pain away, but failed. Everyone else finally noticed Lisa and Lily and shot a questioning look at them.

"That's because me and Lily did have a good suspension of consciousness last night." Lisa said in almost Layman's terms. She felt bad if she used scientific terms to her sisters, who were clearly ill. "I injected an antidote into me and Lily."

"What?!" All the sisters shouted in unison, still not feeling well but managed. Their vision and hearing kept decreasing rapidly every second that past.

"Why would you inject Lily with one of your experiments Lisa?!" Lori demanded an explanation from the genius prodigy.

"Before that, I must give said experiment to you." Lisa said as she brought out 8 injections from her pocket. Everyone's eyes widened at that statement. There were only a few sentences left in all the sisters' minds before everything went blank from the pain.

"No way Lis!"

"Nuh-uh!"

"Not happening!"

"Like, your not getting me Lisa!"

"Your already too late." Lisa flatly said, holding 8 empty syringes. "I already injected the antidotes in to you."

The sisters sans Lisa and Lily looked at their arms, now with a bandage on it. They were surprised on how Lisa was able to inject them without their knowing and how fast she did it.

"How did you-" Lana started but was cut off by Lisa.

"It took 5-8 minutes to inject and cover your arms with bandages. We all had viruses in our systems which makes you not be able to think straight, have a slow reaction time, and generally just have illness. Now you know the reason of why I was able to do it quickly in your perspective. The counter agent will take up to 3-5 hours for it to completely clean your systems." Lisa explained, still in almost Layman's terms. "I was able to make the antidote last night...though the process was painfully slow and painfully agonizing..."

-*FLASHBACK 2*-

We see Lisa in her and Lily's room studying the blood sample she got from herself while a contraption on the background was processing something. Lily was on her crib with earplugs on as she slept rather uncomfortable with the illness she had. There was a screen on the contraption that said '13% Complete; Time Left: 3 hours'.

"This is going to take awhile...a very painful one, I must say..." Lisa groaned in pain and annoyance.

-*FLASHBACK 2 END*-

"And it really was a painful experience." Lisa internally cringed as she recalled last nights events. "Thank goodness that the illness was able to decrease our auditory, or else you would had marched in to my room last night."

"Was it because of the pizza?" Luan asked which Lisa nodded to. "Well this is really 'slicing' me up!" Luan punned. Naturally, it got groans.

"Ok. Note to self, never buy from that pizza joint...ever." Lori quietly made a mental note to herself.

"So...the thing you just injected us with will stop the pain?" Lynn asked, slowly but surely regaining her senses back. Same with the other sisters.

"Precisely. Now I must go and find Lincoln to give it to him as well." Lisa declared as she gave Lily to the fourth oldest and made her way to Lincoln's room. Everyone else thought it would be a good idea to go downstairs to have breakfast already. She opened the door, expecting a white haired boy in the premises...only to see nobody in there. The room was a little messy, while the circular window was wide open. That made Lisa confused and a little nervous. She examined the surroundings and got even more nervous than before.

"Why are there signs of struggling?" Lisa nervously asked to herself quietly. "And what was it I heard last night?"

She thought of millions of possibilities about these information given to her. She concluded it down into three assumptions. One of them, she didn't like one bit. She had to make sure, she went into her room and checked the surveillance system.

"Let us see what ensued last night." Lisa said as she looked at the screen while the screen portrayed Lincoln's bedroom. She saw Lincoln face plant on bed right as he closed the door. After a few minutes, a figure emerged from the window, which made Lisa wide eyed. The intruder grabbed Lincoln by the mouth and made him go unconscious. The intruder sacked him and left through the window as the video ended.

Lisa was wide eyed, jaw dropped, and at a loss of words. She immediately regained her senses as she ran down to her family. They were all in the dining room, eating on the adult's table with their usual chaos.

"Girls!" Lisa called out but it was in vain. "GIRLS!" She tried again, but to no avail. She sighed and ran upstairs and went to her room. She came back down with a megaphone at hand. She cleared her throat, readied herself...and screamed.

"GIRLS!"

Now that definitely got the attention of the Loud sisters, who had their ears buzzing with noise, and they were not happy about that.

"LISA!" They shouted back, annoyed and frustrated,

"Before you homosapiens destroy me, I have some very crucial and dire news!" Lisa said as she threw the megaphone to the living room.

"What could be so important that you had to scream using a megaphone right at our ears?!" Lynn retorted with annoyance, rubbing her already sore ears. They were thankful that the antidote was helping them feel better, and that is including the pain in their ears. Lisa took a deep breath, fully knowing the reaction of her sisters when she says this sentence.

"Lincoln's kidnapped!"


So...there's a cliffhanger...yep...anyways, again, I most likely won't be able to update next week cause I'm really busy. And again, sorry if this chapter seems rushed. Just stressed with some things right now. Sorry. Reviews are appreciated btw! See ya later!
