Hey guys, here's the latest chapter of Neon Flash as well as the debut of the first villain our anti-hero will face.


"Ok Linky, here we are!" Leni said as she stopped in front of school with a smile. Lincoln, however, was in a state of shock, his hair a mess and his eyes the size of pinpricks as he held on to the passenger seat. "You ok?" Leni asked, noticing his expression.

Just another normal day in the town of Royal Woods. Parents were either going to work, dropping their kids off at school, or both. Lincoln Loud on the other hand was being dropped off by one of older sisters. Normally it'd be Luna or Lori that'd give him a ride to school, but they each had something to do this morning. Lynn had to do something sports related, and Luan an early appointment at birthday party for one of her clients. That left him in the hands of his sister Leni and while she did have her license, she wasn't exactly the best driver in the world. Lincoln didn't know that though…

Lincoln released a few heavy breaths to calm himself. "Uh… I'm fine, Leni. Just fine" He replied as he fixed his hair. "I'll see you after school"

"Wait!" Leni stopped him before he got out of the car.

"Hm?" Lincoln looked over his shoulder at her.

"Aren't you going to give me a kiss goodbye?" she asked sweetly. Lincoln couldn't deny her that, especially with that cute, innocent look she was giving him.

"Alright, I'll give you one" Lincoln playfully rolled his eyes and give ditzy yet kindhearted sister a kiss on the cheek.

"And here are five kisses for you. One from each of your older sisters" Leni placed her hands on his cheeks and kissed Lincoln five times on his face, making him chuckle.

"Ok, see ya" he told her.

"Bye, Linky!" Leni waved goodbye as he exited the car.

Once Lincoln closed the car door behind him, Leni drove off. The white-haired teen chuckled with a light shake of his head. Leni always was one of those people you just couldn't stay mad at, no matter what she did or how ditzy she may have sounded. It was kind of cute. Maybe that's why he loved her almost as much as he loved Luna. Though he'd probably have to be more cautious when it came to her driving him to school… or anywhere for that matter.

Upon entering the building, Lincoln heard other students chatting. That was normal. However, what they were talking about caught his attention.

"Hey, did you hear what happened the other day? Somebody helped the put a gang of drug dealers in jail" A random student said.

"Yeah, they said parts of the place had scorch marks and were glowing with this orange light" another student spoke up.

"Well, that was quick. It's only been a day and people are already talking about me" Lincoln thought to himself with a smirk.

"Hey Lincoln" the white-haired teen was greeted by his new friend, Clyde.

"Oh, hey Clyde" Lincoln replied, bumping fists with the other boy.

"You know, kids are school are already talking about you" Clyde said.

"Yeah, I know. Looks like Neon Flash is the talk of the town" Lincoln said.

"Hey, if a villain shows up, Neon can probably make his debut as a real hero" Clyde said with a hint of enthusiasm.

"Heh, that would be cool. But what're the chances of an actual villain threatening Royal Woods?" Lincoln replied as they made their way to class.


6 hours later, on the other side of town…

"At last, the time has come. The day I take my revenge" Johnathan said, "They'll pay for what they did to me" he said.

"After years of experimentation, I have finally created the ultimate power suit" Johnathan pulled out a remote and pressed a button that revealed a suit of armor, "This suit, comprised of a special chrome and titanium alloy, will allow me to take over science community"

The front of the suit then opened, allowing the scientist to step into it. The suit then closed, its eyes glowing red, as well as the red triangular power core on its chest. Upon the roof of the lab opening, Johnathan used the suit's jet boots to fly into the air.

"Now, to destroy the place where I was first ridiculed by my fellow scientists: The Royal Woods Community College" Johnathan said as he flew.


Royal Woods Community College…

"Well, today was boring as hell. I can't believe how much homework we were given… and it's all due by the end of the week" Lincoln complained as he and Clyde headed towards his place, passing by the community college along the way.

"Ah, there's not that much. If we work together, we can be done with it in no time" Clyde said with reassurance.

"Yeah, I guess you've got a point there" Lincoln replied. "So, what should we-"

*BOOM* The sound of an explosion cut Lincoln off midsentence. The duo turned to see the roof of the community college had a hole blown into it was engulfed in flames. At that moment people began to run and scream in terror.

"Whoa! What could've caused that?" Clyde asked.

"Who cares? It's not our problem" Lincoln said as he continued walking. However, he was stopped by the sound of someone laughing evilly. It was then that they saw a dark green and silver colored robotic suit hovering above the school.

"That's right, run as I destroy this sad excuse of a school. A school that looks down upon its lesser students." said the guy with in the suits.

"Wow, sucks for the nerds" Lincoln commented, "Oh well, let's get going, Clyde" he took as step forwards.

"Hold it, Lincoln…" Clyde placed his hand on his friend's shoulder, "I think it's time for you know who to make his debut" he smiled.

"Yeah, but he's destroying a school. Is anyone really going to give a damn?" Lincoln raised an eyebrow.

"Lincoln, if he continues this, he might move on to the rest of the city, then the whole country and who know what else?" Clyde said in an attempt to change the white-haired teen's mind.

"I think that's a stretch. Besides, I think the government will step if he ever gets that far" Lincoln replied.

"He could end up hurting our families" Clyde said.

"Well, I don't give a damn if he hurts my parents" Lincoln shrugged.

"Well, what about your sisters? Doesn't Luna go to school here? What If he ends up hurting her?" Clyde mentioned.

Lincoln stared off into space for a few seconds, the sound of a timer ticking in his head. The last thing he would want was for some nerd in a suit to hurt his sisters, especially Luna. Lincoln sighed.

"God damn it. Fine, give me a sec" Lincoln said.

He looked around to make sure no one was around. When the coast was clear, he ran behind a wall and changed into his costume. This version of his suit was a way better version from the one he wore yesterday.

It was a black suit with long black sleeves. On his hands he wore black gloves along with orange leather braces on his forearms. Around his waist was an orange belt with a silver belt buckle. He wore black pants and black strap on boots with orange soles. The mask over his face had white eyes like that of Spider-Man or Deadpool and wore a hood over it to make him look even more mysterious. To top it all off, the suit had a sharp looking N in the center of the chest.

If Lincoln were to compare his outfit to anything, it'd probably be Noob Saibot's default costume from MK9.

"Hey, Iron-Dork!" Lincoln shouted at the man in the suit, stopping him from destroying the school, getting his attention, "Don't you have something better to do, like failing at trying to get a girlfriend?" he insulted the man.

"You dare insult me? Just who do you think you are?" The man looked down at the costumed teen.

"They call me Neon Flash, and the guy that's gonna take you down" Neon said, clenching a righteous fist at him, "And what about you? Who are you to destroy a school? Not that I really care"

"You may refer to me as Techton, the greatest scientist who has ever lived" The scientist introduced himself.

"That's a bold statement…" Neon thought with a deadpanned expression. "Ok, 'greatest scientist who has ever lived', why don't you give up nice and easy, so you don't get hurt?" he suggested.

Techton replied by shooting a laser beam from his hand, which caused Neon to dodge at the last moment. The costumed teen narrowed his eyes at the armor suited man. Ok, it seemed Neon would have to do things the hard way.

The young anti-hero gathered energy in both his hands and fired a barrage of neon blasts. Techton countered by flying towards Neon while dodging the energy barrage. When up close, Techton stretched out his arm towards the teen and placed his hand in front of his chest before releasing a beam of energy that sent the young man flying.

Skidding across the ground on his back, Neon came to a halt upon his head lightly bumping against a bike rack. Sitting up, he saw a long chain wrapped around the rack. He then saw Techton walking towards him. Being quick on his feet, Neon took the chain off the rack and stood back up. He then pulled at the chain, enveloping and enhancing it with neon light. Swinging the chain, Neon tossed it like a lasso which wrapped itself around Techton's legs.

"Yahh!" Neon shouted as he swung his chain with Techton attached to it. Bringing the chain down, he slammed the man into the ground, creating man shaped hole. With a single whip, the chain freed itself from Techton's legs and wrapped itself across Neon's torso before changing to normal.

Neon approached Techton and leaned in to see if he were alive. That's when quickly turned and fired a beam from his hand. Luckily, Neon was quick enough to dodge it. However, he was caught off guard by Techton flying towards him and tackling him by the waist and tossing him into a nearby tree.

"Give up yet, Neon Flash?" Techton asked as he approached the costumed teen.

"Actually…" Neon gathered a small ball of energy in his right hand, "Not even close!" he slammed the energy ball on the ground, releasing a flash of light.

With his enemy temporary blinded, Neon took the opportunity to fire another barrage of energy blasts. Unlike the previous time, these ones hit dead on, creating small smoke clouds upon impact. When the smoke cleared, it revealed Techton to still be standing, his suit covered with very little scratches.

"You were saying?" Techton said in a mocking tone as he dusted himself off. "Now to-" the scientist was cut off by the sound of static. Looking down, he saw the power core on his suit had been cracked, "If the power core gets damaged any further, it could disable the suit entirely" he thought to himself. "I'll spare you this time, Neon Flash. Next time we meet, you won't be so lucky" Techton said before taking to the sky and flying away.

"Well, that sucked…" Neon gave an annoyed expression.

"Not bad for your first fight though" Clyde commented as he approached his costumed friend.

"Yeah, I didn't lose, but I sure as hell didn't win either" he replied before sighing, "C'mon, let's get out of here before the cops and news reporters show up. I'm keeping this chain by the way" he added as they left the scene.


The Loud House…

It was dinnertime at the Loud House. It was Rita and Lynn Sr.'s date night, so Luna decided to make dinner. They were having porkchops, mashed potatoes and gravy, and macaroni and cheese.

"Did you guys here about the fight that happened at the community college?" Lynn spoke up as Luna put the bowl of mashed potatoes on the table.

"Yeah, it was all over the news" Luan said, "Luna, don't you go there?"

"Yeah, I just started today. People said it was between a guy in a suit of armor and some teenage kid with powers" Luna told them.

"You ok, Luna?" Leni placed a concerned hand on her sister's shoulder.

"I'm fine, Leni" Luna smiled at her slightly older sister.

"If Clyde hadn't convinced me to step in and take that guy on, he might've hurt Luna…" Lincoln thought to himself.

"I was there as well. They interrupted the guest lecture I was giving to a class" Lisa spoke up.

"Lisa… Meh, she's less important to me. Though the others probably feel different towards her, so it's probably a good thing I saved her too I guess" Lincoln added with a shrug.

"Speaking of school, does anybody have anything they want to share?" Lori asked the younger siblings that were still in school.

The sisters began to chat about their day at school, from Lily talking about her finger painting she made in class to Lucy talking about her school's poetry club. Lincoln, however, just drowned them out, thinking about the events that had transpired today. Everything was normal until he got into that fight with Techton. If he hadn't cracked the power core on his suit, who knows what might've happened?

"Lincoln?" Lori called.

Either he could've drawn out the fight until he trains Techton's suit, or perhaps Techton could've…

"Yo, Lincoln!" Lori spoke a little louder.

"Huh? What?" Lincoln snapped out of his thoughts and looked at his eldest sister.

"I asked you how your day was" Lori said.

"My day was… something, alright" Lincoln replied before taking a bit of his mashed potatoes. "Nothing special" he added with a shrug.

"Hey, Lincoln, do you think you can help me with my homework after dinner?" Lily spoke up.

"Sure, Lily" the white-haired teen smiled at his youngest sister. "No doubt you're worth protecting, little sister" he thought to himself.


Royal Woods Community College…

The next day, after school, Lincoln and Clyde were walking by the community college again. The roof still had a hole and scorch marks from when Techton blasted it yesterday. And yet, people were still going to school like it never even happened.

"I can't believe you had your first fight as a superhero here" Clyde spoke up.

"I can't believe no one got the fight on video. I'm just glad Luna's safe" Lincoln said, smiling.

"What about Lisa?" Clyde raised an eyebrow.

"Yeah, her too…" Lincoln replied with a deadpanned expression, unenthusiastic about his genius younger sister.

"Anyway, hope that Techton guy doesn't return anytime soon" Clyde said.

However, that's when the sound of jets in the air. Looking to the sky, the two friends once again saw the man in the armored suit.

"You just had to say something…" Lincoln looked at Clyde with a slight irritated expression.

"Well, you know what you've gotta do, don't you?" Clyde raised an eyebrow.

"Yeah, yeah" Lincoln rolled his eyes. Walking around the wall like he did the previous time, Lincoln changed into his superhero costume. Once fully dressed, he walked towards his opponent.

"Good luck out there" Clyde said as his costumed friend crossed the street.

"Whatever. How about you call the media, so they can record me kicking this guy's ass?" Neon said half-jokingly.

"Now, to finish what I started" Techton said as he raised his left arm. He was about to fire, when he felt something hit him in the back, catching him off guard.

"Don't you know when to give up, you armored geek?" Neon asked in a mocking tone.

"You again" Techton looked down at the costumed teen.

"Just what the hell's your problem, Techton? What's your beef with this school?" Neon asked as the armored man descended to the ground.

"Not just this school, the science community. But if you must know…" Techton began.

[Flashback]

Techton: It was several years ago that I went to this very school. I was fascinated by robotics, machinery, you name it. I even made a remote-controlled tank capable to firing real lasers. I had hoped that one of my inventions would be used to better mankind…

Techton: But my fellow peers didn't think so. They all laughed and mocked my inventions. They even went as far destroying my precious inventions. However, the government saw my genius.

Techton: They told me to create suits of armor as a means of defense in there were to be war. I did as they asked, but alas, the suits were complete failures and I was ousted from the science community. That day I vowed vengeance on those that ruined me…

[End of Flashback]

"Destroying this school is the first step in that quest. Once done, the government is next. Anyone that opposes me shall feel my wrath" Techton concluded.

"Aww, did the little nerd not get the appreciation he wanted?" Neon mocked the villain in a baby voice, "Both of my parents neglected me since I was kid, you don't hear me complaining!"

"Hmph…" Techton scoffed.

"Now shut up and let's continue the fight where we left off" Neon said, gathering energy in his hands.

"Agreed" Techton said as he raised his hand.

Neon reacted quickly and side-flipped and ran as he dodged laser after laser shot by Techton's armored suit. Neon countered by firing a barrage of energy himself. However, Techton deflected each one, some scorching the ground while others destroyed parts of buildings. One of them almost hit Clyde, but he was fortunate to narrowly dodge it.

Unwrapping his chain from around his torso, Neon pulled on it and enhanced it with his powers. Techton used his jet boosters to charge at the costumed teen. However, Neon was quick enough to leap over the armored man, giving him the opportunity to toss his neon chain around Techton's torso. With his opponent caught, Neon swung his chain which slammed the scientist into the tree from earlier, the tree breaking in half upon impact.

"Eat this!" Neon shouted, firing a barrage of energy. However, Techton flew out of the way, thus making the energy attack hit the destroyed tree instead, the remains of it being scorched.

"Very good. Now it's my turn" Techton raised his arm and fired a laser from his hand, hitting Neon square in the chest which sent him flying.

With a backflip, Neon landed on his feet with a small skid across the ground. The teenage anti-hero looked at the armored villain with a narrow-eyed glare.

"Damn, this guy's tougher than the guys I've faced in juvie, that's for sure…" Neon thought to himself, "Hell, that last fight only ended in stalemate when I damaged that power core on his chest… Wait a minute!" he remembered.

Neon then set his eyes on the power core in the center of Techton's chest.

"Yeah, if I can somehow damage that power core completely, then it should cause his suit to disable" he thought. The question was, how was going to damage that thing enough to render it useless?

"You ok, Neon?" Clyde asked, helping his friend up.

"Yeah, I'm fine. But I need to find a way to destroy that power core on his suit" Neon replied.

"Hmm…" Clyde rubbed his chin. He snapped his fingers once an idea came to him, "Hey, I know!" Clyde took off his backpack and opened it up, rummaging through it. "Maybe you can use… this!" he pulled out what appeared to be a hilt.

"What the hell is that?" Neon looked at him with confusion.

"It's the hilt of a sword I was replicating" Clyde told him.

"You're making a fake sword?" Neon raised an eyebrow.

"It's for a history project I'm working on about knights in the medieval era. I saw what your powers did with your chain, maybe they can do something with this" Clyde said.

"Well, it's worth a shot…" Neon took the handle from Clyde.

The costumed teen focused his power into his hand. His neon power flowed into the object, change its color from brown and silver to orange and gold. Then, out of the hole of the hilt, came a long blade made entirely of neon light.

"Cool!" the boys said in amazement.

"Now this is what I call a sword!" Neon said, twirling it around before clenching it in both hands. "Thanks, Clyde"

Neon stepped towards his opponent, starring him down with a glare. The teen raised his hand and motioned for the armored scientist to attack him. Crossing his arms over his chest, Techton gathered energy. Neon seized the opportunity and gathered energy in his left hand. Aiming downward, Neon blasted the ground which launched him into the air. The anti-hero was coming at his opponent with everything he had. He stopped his blast and let the force propel him.

"You won't be able to dodge in midair. Take this!" Techton said. With his laser fully charged, the scientist fired at the young anti-hero.

Lowering his arms, Neon was able to use his neon blade to cut the laser in, spinning around counterclockwise as he grinded against it. Techton gasped in surprise as his attacked missed and the costumed teen appeared in front of him face to face.

"How about you take this!" Neon shouted as thrusted his arm, impaling Techton's power core with the tip of his blade.

"NO! The power core!" Techton said in disbelief, electricity surrounding his suit as its power core was destroyed and Neon brought down his sword, cutting the armored suit like a hot knife through butter.

With the power core destroyed, this left disabled which left Techton and Neon to fall to the ground with a thud, leaving a man shaped imprint. Luckily for Neon Techton's suit broke his fall, so nothing of his was broken.

"Ugh, finally!" Neon said as he stood up, removing his weapon from Techton's suit. He then depowered the sword, returning it to its normal hilt state.

It was then that steam let out of Techton's suit. The suit then opened, revealing the person that controlled said suit. It showed a man somewhere in his 40s wearing lab coat over a black sweat shirt, gray khakis and black shoes. Not only that, but he was bald, wore glasses and had a light gray goatee.

"An old dude in a lab coat? What, did you have midlife crisis or something?" Neon joked.

"It took me two decades to perfect that armor. If had destroyed the school then I, Johnathan Brent, would've been one step closer to my revenge" Johnathan glared at Neon.

"Oh, yeah, you were so close Brent. Too bad you got stopped by a teenager in a costume" Neon said mockingly.

"Tom, I'm standing here in front of Royal Woods Community College where a battle had ensued" A voice said, getting everyone's attention. Everyone turned to see a woman standing in front of a camera, signaling she was a news reporter.

"Oh, sure, NOW the stupid media shows up" Neon gave an annoyed expression as the news reporter approached him.

"Excuse me, would you mind telling us the details of what happened?" The newswoman pointed her microphone at the young anti-hero.

"Yeah, this douchebag was attacking the college, I stepped in, we fought, and I ended up kicking his ass" Neon replied nonchalantly.

"And just who might you be?" the newswoman asked. Neon glanced between Clyde and the newswoman before giving his answer.

"They call me… Neon Flash" he said, and then stomped on the scientist's head, knocking him unconscious, "I'd send this bastard to the slammer while he's out if I were you" he told the news reporter, pointing at unconscious scientist with his thumb before walking away.

"Uhh… What he said" Clyde said to the newswoman, running after his costumed friend.


The Loud House…

It was late in the evening at the Loud House and Luna was on the couch with watching reruns of the classic anime, Sailor Moon. That's when walked in.

"Hey Linc, where've you been?" Luna asked, turning her attention to her brother.

"I was at Clyde's working on our homework assignment" he told her, "We were supposed to—are you watching Sailor Moon?" Lincoln glanced between his sister and the anime she was watching.

"Yeah. Hey, you're not the only one here that likes anime" Luna told him, crossing her arms.

"Well, looks like I learned something new about Luna…" Lincoln thought with a smirk, "Good to know. So, how was your day?" he asked.

"That armored dude tried to attack my college again. Good thing that other dude with the superpowers was there to stop them. I think he said his name was Neon Flash or something. It was all over the news" Luna told him.

"Of course, it was" Lincoln playfully rolled his eyes. "Anyway, I'm going to go relax in my room. Let me know when dinner's ready" he said as he walked upstairs.

This had certainly been eventful two days. Lincoln was able to utilize his powers in fight against an actual villain and win. The people of Royal Woods may not know it was Lincoln Loud that defeated Techton, but as Neon Flash he had saved them and won the day. Maybe Clyde was on to something about this superhero thing… or anti-hero in Lincoln's case. Whatever he'd call himself, this experience was kind of fun and the end of the day his life returned to normal. Well, for the time being, at least.


And there's the end of this chapter. This chapter was pretty long, which is rare for me. Anyway, time for an announcement.

I'm creating a poll. This poll will be about one of the sisters having a crush on Lincoln's alter ego, Neon Flash. Why? Well, one, it would add more to said girl's character and two, it'll be funny when or if the girl in question finds out. You guys will have 5 choices: Leni, Luna, Lucy, Lana or Lola (ironically). It'll be up on my profile and it'll stay there for about a month… or at least until I post the next chapter, whichever comes first. And please say why the sister you chose should have a crush on Neon, don't be biased and pick that one sister just because that she's your favorite or because you ship that sister with Lincoln or whatever.

Speaking of sisters, next chapter is going to involve Bobby's little sister, Ronnie Anne! What's her role? You'll have to read the next chapter to find out. And I hope you all enjoyed this chapter.

Oh, and I'm still accepting ideas for villains, so if you have any I'll be more than happy to look them over. Just remember to put their name, secret identity, and how they become Lincoln/Neon's enemy.

Also, I thank Zachlor16 for the villain of Techton, the villain of this chapter. If he were to return for a future chapter, how do you think he'd return and why? Feel free to answer.

There's one more thing I'd like to announce, both good news and bad news. The good news is, since I'm going to college for computer animation I plan to eventually turn Neon Flash into a web series. The bad news is, once that happens it won't be a Loud House fanfiction anymore, it'll be its own thing with its own characters. The web series will be on YouTube account (same name as my fanfic account) and will have 5-minute videos. But that won't happen for a long time and even then, I'll still be working on the fanfic version of the story, so you don't have to worry. Wish me luck in that.

Anyway, that's enough of me rambling. Remember to Read, Review, and Favorite/Follow and I'll see you all in the next chapter.
