Around late morning in the Loud House, things were usual as always, chaos. Lucy was in her favorite dark corner in the attic, expressing her current feelings of everything going on in her life, the chaos in her house, and secretly, her powers.
Lucy: "A shed of ice, it hurts to feel your soul lost, you then awaken as a different person, to then experience a new life."
Fiora: That was very sweet poem from you.
Trayon: You must be a very export of making poems, aren't you.
Lucy: Huh,... Oh, you guys, I guess you enjoyed my current poem.
Fiora: You have a lot of creativity in your young mind.
Lucy: Not only have I been into dark stuff, but I always liked making poems by expressing my feelings. It helps me feel more secure of my lifestyle at home.
Trayon: Everyone has their own various hobbies, you have a unique one.
Lucy is only sightly pleased by Trayon's complement. Later on in the evening, half of the Loud children's were in the living room as Lucy came walking down the stairs.
Lori: So, does anyone have any suggestions to do today?
Lana: We can go to the wreaked alleyway that was discovered by my rat friends last week.
Lola: It's probably disgusted by many smelly animals and bugs! No way!
Lincoln: How about grounds keeper Jim's mansion that me and Clyde went to months ago.
Lisa: May I remind you that you tricked him into believing it was an undead soul that did all that made all that event?
Lincoln: Okay yes, but me and Hunter did actually catch him in his ghost containment device!
Lisa: Elder brother, please stop with the whole fiasco and accept that ghost and demons don't exist.
Lincoln gave a upset look while Lucy overheard her saying that.
Lucy (in her thoughts): Though you may claim that you have the amount of knowledge in your brain, this, is one thing you are wrong about. Lincoln probably would be enthuse if he ever proved Lisa wrong.
Lynn: How about we go to Dairy Land. We could just do one of Lincoln's old suggestions, besides, maybe it could be fun.
The group thought about it, then decided to accept it.
Lori: Then it's settled, we're going to Dairy Land.
Most of the Loud kids joined the trip aside from Leni, who has work, Luna, who rehearsing with Sam, Luan, while she's has a business to attend to. Lynn was the last one to nearly walk out the door until she notices Lucy standing at bottom of the stairs.
Lynn: Hey Luc, you plan on coming?
It didn't take but a second for her to respond back to Lynn.
Lucy: I guess. There's not much to do here.
Lynn: Then come on, let's bounce.
Lynn runs ahead while Lucy casually followed by.
While at Dairy Land, everyone was having a good time, even Lucy. (Sightly). While Lori, Lincoln, Lana, and Lily who's with Lana were at their own favorite places at Dairy Land, Lucy, Lynn and Lisa together were shooting water guns at cow figures in one of the attractions in Dairy Land. Lucy didn't want to play with the attraction, so she decided to watch them play. Lynn was currently beating Lisa as her cow's milk was about to burst before Lisa's.
Lynn: You might as well quit now Lisa, cuz I'm about to burst my milk!
It was long until Lynn's cow bursted, Lynn then breaked danced in happiness while Lucy and Lisa watched her.
Lucy: Typical Lynn, always bragging on about how you win.
Lisa: I now start questioning why did I accept your challenge for this activity.
Lynn: Hey, at least I'm not rubbing it on your face Lisa. You guys do know how much I love to break dance.
After a short time, they left the park to check other place they could do.
Lisa: It won't be until a few minutes until our eldest sibling decides it's time to move on.
Lynn: So, do any of you have any other suggestions to do before leaving.
Right then, the three girls started noticing a crowd gathering around an area far from Dairy Land.
Lynn: What's up with those people gathering around there? Hey, let's go check it out.
Lynn dashed ahead while Lucy and Lisa followed behind. They approached the crowd which was not very massive for them to see what's going up. A man in a suit who turns out to be Obadiah Stane making a presentation on Stark Industry's new investigations.
Obadiah: Despite how the industry has been going on, we are trying to make all our best tools out into every single support we can make. This is what I can bring to everyone.
The crowd clapped for the presentation. Everyone started leaving as the girls started too.
Lynn: Isn't he part of that tech industry that your class went to last week Lucy?
Lucy: Yeah. But I have never seen him but a woman with orange hair guiding us around the place.
Lisa: Most facilities never allow beings around top work areas that have much development towards consumers. So no one had any issues with the tour correct?
Lucy (thoughts): Weird for you to say that.
Lynn: Yeah, sure whatever. Anyway, you guys wanna try out the bumper karts that recently just got added?
Lisa: It's probably worth investing into it, for my own research benefits.
Lynn: You tagging along, Luc?
Lucy: Nah, I'm just gonna go take a walk around the park. I'll meet up back at Vansilla.
Lynn: Okay. See you back.
As they separated, Lucy went back to stand where Obadiah's presentation and sees the projects that Stane has put up for the people to see and view. She decides to see them. Guns, metal armors, and various weapons that don't seem to have any much of unique features on them compared to what Lucy saw in Stark's Industry Room.
Lucy: From what I tell, it's not very impressive compared to what I saw in the room from Stark's.
Obadiah: Really, that very shameful.
She heard Obadiah's voice next to her, only to see that he is next to her.
Lucy: Oh, um you heard me?
Obadiah: I was just admiring how the people are viewing our gadgets and I overheard you talking about your trip in Tony's secret room.
Lucy: Umm, I didn't actually meant any of that.
Lucy easily kept an emotionless tone to hide what she said.
Obadiah: Oh you don't need to, I know how much children love to make up stories about them visiting or meeting incredible things.
Lucy: I guess, but I'm not the type of person who lies about stuff like that to impress or make others jealous.
Obadiah: I'm sure you are. These inventions are actually my designs. Our stocks have been dropping hard seen Stark shut down weapon development.
Lucy: Really?
Obadiah: Stark is trying to rid much weapons away from catastrophe. But I always believed we were actually keeping the world from falling in chaos by making weapons.
Lucy: I could guess that he witnessed many life's lost from his own weapons that were in the hands of villains.
Obadiah: But that's why military are around to protect life.
Lucy: But have they been doing a good job at it?
Obadiah sighs at her response.
Obadiah: Your really talented to have very good statements, kid.
Lucy: Maybe it's one of my writing skills.
Obadiah: Perhaps. What's your name, kid?
Lucy: Lucy.
Obadiah: Nice to meet you, Lucy. My name is Obadiah Stane. One of the CEO's of Stark Industry.
Obadiah pats Lucy's back.
Obadiah: Wow, you're very cold.
Lucy: Yeah, I get that a lot.
Obadiah: Funny. Are you interested in becoming part of Stark Industry?
Lucy: I can't say, I would want think about it when choosing my career path. (In thoughts) Though, I am going to be living longer than ten years to the point where I would decide on a career.
Obadiah: No need to rush. What don't you just head on home and try not to talk about weapons and chaos with your parents, okay?
Lucy: Okay?
Lucy walks away as Obadiah walks the opposition direction from Lucy.
Lucy: He really sounded like he doesn't care that much about safety of the world but rather the interest.
Fiora: You are not wrong.
Trayon: His soul looks to have tainted in darkness.
Lucy: I... don't feel like talking about this now, or probably ever. Can we just never, speak of this?
Fiora and Trayon didn't expect Lucy to say this, they both looked at each other before turning back to her.
Fiora: If you wish.
Trayon: But just know that Shulk and Taylor will keep their suspect up with him.
Lucy: Well, I guess that makes sense for them to do that, but I'd rather stay away from things like this since I don't want to-
Lola: Who are you talking to Lucy?
She gets startled by her younger sister who was standing right next to her out of nowhere.
Lucy: Gah! Oh, Lola, what are you doing?
Lola: Hey, I asked you a question first! Who were just talking to?
Lucy: No one.
Lola: Really? You were just talking like someone was with you.
Lucy: I am not talking to anyone or to myself.
Lola: You're acting weirder than ever Lucy. Talking to yourself and sneaking out of the house at night.
Lucy: Umm, what makes you think I sneak out at night.
Lola: Because last night, I woke up hearing some noises in the chimney and stomping in the stairs. And when I decided to check it out, I saw you and Lynn's bedroom door closing slowly.
Lucy immediately got scared that Lola nearly caught her sneaking out, doing her Blade activities.
Lucy: So what, it was probably Fangs flying through the chimney and Cliff or Charles making noises around last night.
Lola still thinking Lucy's hiding something from everyone, so she decided to just play along.
Lola: Okay, fine. Maybe I just had too much cheese before going to bed and dreamt the whole thing.
Lucy: I should've known that. Anyway, what are you doing here?
Lola: Lori asked me to look for you, we're leaving now.
Lucy: Okay then, let's go. Let's not keep Lori waiting.
Lola: Why are you even here anyway, Lucy. You're not into technology like Lisa?
Lucy: I was just wondering around the area. I'm really not into any of this stuff.
Lola still felt suspicious of Lucy's strange behavior.
Lola: (In thoughts) Your hiding something Lucy, and I'm gonna find out what it is. Even if I have to lose a lot of beauty sleep to catch you doing your strange activities.
Unknown to them, Obadiah has been secretly watching them from distance. Listening to Lucy talking to Fiora and Trayon and she and Lola's argument.
Obadiah: I guess my hunch was right. She has the power of ice. But, I'll have to learn much more about it before it's time to act.
