The next day later, Lucy was in her poetry journal thinking of new types poems to make for the following events that had been going on the past months.

Lucy: Lets see, Life's hard as fire, path is cool as ice, becoming something inside that... that... huh, this one's a tough note to think of.

Unaware of her, the demons watching her is seeing how's she doing. However, they both seem to be worried about something with them. Short time then, their soul demons appear alongside them noticing them looking worried.

Fiora: It's almost going to happen, right? The vision you both seen.

Shulk: Yes. It will eventually.

Trayen: Then why haven't any of you both warned her about it?

Taylor: The reason is, we both seen another vision. The vision showed us what would if we warned her about the other vision and it would led her to a... tragic loss for herself. But the other showed us that if we continue not to inform her about it, it still would lead to terrible event for a certain time, but eventually everything will turn out fine for her eventually.

Shulk: It is very hard to decide what we should do, but if it's to get us out of the fantasy of our tales to her family and her becoming in very danger to what will so become, then we must let the other vision become reality. We only wish for her to have happiness for her, even if she is going to be feeling hurt for herself for quite some time.

Fiora: Knowing you both, you are will to do whatever is best for you, us and those that you care about.

Trayen: That is was you both choose to use the Monado's so long ago, and without it, many tragic events that would have happened before, would eventually become what they are.

Fiora: Even bring this young girl to us that we believe will finish the battle of destiny you both closed off long ago will be the one to finish it once and for all. That's the Shulk I know.

Trayen: And the Taylor I have known my entire life.

Both demons looks at them smiling as Lucy continues to write her poems.

Lucy: Now let's see, I need a poem written for a journey's end?

Before Lucy could think of what to write, Lincoln come out from the the attic door and looks for her. Once he finds her, he tells her about what going on now.

Lincoln: Hey, Lucy. Luan's putting up show in the living for us to watch, wanna come down?

Lucy typically isn't the whole entertainment person but still thinking of going to watch it for a short time, she tells her brother...

Lucy: You go on ahead, I'll meet up shortly.

Lincoln climbs down from the attic as Lucy closes her journal and places it on the table where the photo of her grandmother and leaves the attic. The demons appears again.

Shulk: It is almost time.

Taylor: Let's follow her.

The demons follow behind Lucy to the living room. Around LA at Stark Facility, Pepper enters the office Obadiah, believing that he was responsible for selling weapons behind Tony's back. She enters his office to see he is not around. She quietly closes the door as she walks up to his computer and grabs the lock chip and inserts it into the computer. It only took about a couple of seconds before the chip managed to give her access to his computer. The computer pulls up the chip and began searching through the files, while doing so, she discover prints about an armor that she recognized before. It was prints for the Mark 1 armor, a small loading screen pops in the center of the computer that said, "Sector 16 File Access." This really surprised Pepper.

Pepper: Sector 16? What are you up to, Obadiah?

She clicks on another file and this one pops up a video that had 10 Ring soldiers and Raza with scarfs covering their faces stand around Tony looking all messy and confused as Raza speaks in Hungarian to the camera. Pepper then has the video translated into English.

Raza: You did not tell us that the target you

paid us to kill was the great Tony Stark.

Pepper is utterly shocked from what she is watching.

Raza: As you can see, Obadiah Stane...

Pepper: Oh, my God.

Raza: ... your deception and lies

will cost you dearly. The price to kill Tony Stark has just gone up.

Pepper then continues to look around the files as she opens up one that showed a crystal that she could instantly recognized, it happened to be Lucy's crystal. It displayed much info and stats that the crystal has. This even frightened her that Stane knows about Lucy's crystal. She then finds another video that seems to be taken not long ago. The video plays Tony in his Mark 47 armor with Lucy in her Blade form up on the Avengers Facility roof.

Lucy: The demons cast a spell to make them believe that they were the ones who gave me the new look. They even explain how my powers work and suggest that I practice using it. They even told me that they I could see them as my mentors. They even made me promise that I wouldn't disclose my powers to anyone, if I did, they'd kill whoever I told and myself as well. But you managed to find out that on your own, but they didn't do anything because they see that you're trusted enough with my secret. Probably because of you being Iron Man.

Pepper starts to believe that Stane must be planing on using Lucy for something in his objectives.

Pepper: What do you plan on doing with her, Obadiah?

Pepper then downloads all the files into the chip. All of a sudden, a voices startles her as she looks at the door to see Stane looking directly at her.

Obadiah: So, what are we going to do about this?

Pepper watches him walks towards his table where his drinks are and brings to serve himself one. Pepper looks back at the computer as the files are still being downloaded as she then looks back at Stane.

Obadiah: I know what you're going through,

Pepper.

Stane glances at her for a short time before looking back down to his bottle of whiskey as he holds it up.

Obadiah: Tony. He always gets the good stuff,

doesn't he?

Pepper smiles innocently as Stane pours another glass as Pepper covers up the drive with as a newspaper. Stane carries both glasses of whiskey and then begins to walk up. Pepper slowly moves the mouse to the top right screen and changed the computer to screensaver just in time before Stane could see what Potts was doing with his computer. He believes that she hasn't seen anything in his computer and hoping not to kill her, he then moves on and discussed Stark's returns from Afghanistan.

Obadiah: I was so happy when he came home that long ago. It was like we got him back from the dead.

As he walk around Pepper who was trying to act all innocent he sits right across from her continuing the conversation.

Obadiah: Now I realize, well, Tony never really did come home from those eight years, did he? He left a part of himself in that cave. Breaks my heart.

Pepper remains calm as she speaks with him.

Pepper: Well, he's a complicated person. He's been through a lot. Now as Iron Man, I think he'll be all right.

Obadiah takes a sip of his whiskey as he then change the subject of the conversation.

Obadiah: True, with that tin can of his, he's prevented many tragic from the past, but there still things that still haunt him, the weapons, creating a so-called peace keeping program that cost him to destroy a city, putting away close friends, who apparently knew about his parents deaths, I still feel sorry about his parents when he found out. Now he seems to be teaching young up-starters to working alongside us.

Pepper knows that Stane is hiding that he has Lucy's secret with him and he is trying to hide it.

Obadiah: I was surprised he turned down the high school kid and believed the elementary school girl was worth teaching then him.

Pepper: Well, the boy showed that he was too much productive, but the girl seemed to be handing things slow and shortly. And it's probably why he thinks she could be a potential candidate to us.

Stane gives a brief silent before speaking.

Obadiah: You are a very rare woman.

Pepper smiles by the compliment.

Obadiah: Tony doesn't know how lucky he is.

Pepper: Thank you. Thanks.

Pepper then gets off the seat.

Pepper: I'd better get back there.

She stealthily moves over the newspaper covering the drive with her hand as she removes it from the computer as she takes her purse as she then attempts to leave, before Obadiah stops her.

Obadiah: Is that today's paper?

Still trying to keep quite about event, she replies back.

Pepper: Yes.

Stane then walks up to her.

Obadiah: Do you mind?

He says as he opens his hands demanding from the newspaper. Pepper hands him the newspaper while still hiding the chip in her hand where she was holding the newspaper.

Pepper: Not at all.

Obadiah: Puzzle.

Pepper: Of course.

Pepper then walks out the office as Stane watches.

Obadiah: Take care.

She turns to look back at him before looking away as she looks at the chip as she walks away from the office. Once she was gone, Stane walks towards his computer as he slams the newspapers on his desk as he opens his computer to see a small screen in the center of the computer that read, 'Download Complete'. Now knowing that Pepper has seen and downloaded everything what he is hiding behind them, and knowing Lucy's crystal he now knows that it will a certain time before he gets caught he leaves his office as he makes a call.

Obadiah: Get me a chopper to Royal Woods now! I need to get to that facility's Arc Reactor now!

Back at the Loud House, Lucy walks downstairs to she most of the family gathering together for Luan's big show. As most of the entire couch was filled, including Lucy's favorite spot watch was already seated by Lana. She decides to seat right close to the stage platform. Soon then Lola came by and seated next to her. Lucy takes a short glance before looking away.

Lola: I never would thought you would actually want to see Luan's performance.

Lucy: No, I just don't want mom and dad telling me to come down and watch.

Lola: Oh, makes sense. But anyway, I believe this is gonna an interesting show.

Lucy: What makes you say that?

Lola: I just have a good feeling about it, that's all.

She wasn't sure why Lola is very excited for Luan's show but she pay not much attention to her as the show was soon about to start. The stages curtains opens as Luan in a magician outfit walked onto the stage.

Luan: Welcome, Loud Family to Luan's Magic Show!

The family applaud while Lucy gave a short chuckle.

Luan: For today's performance, I will be doing my usual tricks to warm all of you up for my grand performance, just hope none of you get any blisters from my warmups! Hahaha!

Everyone rolled their eyes from Luan's usual pun making. Luan begins by doing the typical magic hat trick as she pulls out Jerry, Mr. Coconut and was now about to pull out another guest.

Luan: And presto!

She happened to pull out Lola teddy bear, Mr. Sprinkles. Which infuriated Lola.

Lola: Mr. Sprinkles?! Hey, how did you get your hands on Mr. Sprinkles?

Luan: Magic, I'll you. A magician never reveals her secrets.

Lola gets up and climbs onto the stage and takes back Mr. Sprinkles.

Lola: Don't you ever take Mr. Sprinkles like this again!

Lola get off stage and back to where she seated before, with Mr. Sprinkles with her. Luan then goes on by doing a card trick as she pulled one unique card and puts into the others and twisted both her hands as the cards vanished. This really impressed the family.

Leni: How did you do that?

Lori: I agree, that was impressive.

Lana: Where are the cards now?

Luan: Check all of your pockets.

The entire family checks their pockets to find one card in each of their pockets, Lincoln happened to find the one unique card Luan showed earlier.

Lincoln: Hey, I have to one different card Luan showed before!

Luan: Then congratulations, you happened to be lucky viewer to get that card. Consider yourself lucky.

Lincoln: Whenever I had before about that.

Luan: Now that the warmups are done now we get on with the actual show!

Luan goes back stage and moves up props for her true performance.

Luan: For this performance, I will be doing tricks that will involve water and fire. But before I get started, I'll need a volunteer from the audience, how about you Lucy?

Lucy right eyes widen. She gets nervous that Luan wants her to become her volunteer for her magic trick with fire and water. She knows that her powers gets effected by fire and water so she worries that she could get caught by exposing her powers with them.

Lucy: (Nervously) Uhh, I... I don't... I, I'm kinda not the person who's will to do volunteering for performance.

Luan: Come on, don't be such a big stink, it's really not fun to be a party pooper!

Leni: Yeah, like, you should at least give it a try. It won't hurt to just try. Well, actually fire does hurt so you have to be careful, but still, we'd like to see you be up there.

All in unison: Come on. Go for it. Don't be shy.

Lucy: (Softly) Oh no.

In defeat, Lucy walks up onstage as Lola watches with a sadistic look on her face of satisfaction. Lucy stands onstage with Luan next to her as she grabs ahead a couple of things. Luan picks up a bucket that was filled with water with a lid on top of it.

Luan: For my first trick, my volunteer will hold on to this bucket filled with water as she closes the lid as I take my special surprise. Lucy, would you?

Lucy: A-alright.

Luan hands her the bucket as she closes the lid. Once then, she twirls her magic wand as she says the usual magic words.

Luan: Hogus-Pokus! Now if my assistance would now hand me the bucket...

Lucy hands the bucket back to Luan as she hands it back only to discover something off.

Luan:...we will discover that- Wait, Huh?!

The family as well as Lucy were confused of what Luan is confused of.

Rita: Something wrong, Luan?

Luan: Yeah, look.

Luan reveals that the water in the bucket was now completely turned frozen to Luan's dismay. The family wonders if this is part of Luan's act or she really is meaning this.

Lana: It's frozen.

Luna: Dude, is this part of you act?

Luan: No seriously, this isn't what was supposed to happen.

Lori: What was suppose to happen?

Luan: It was suppose to vanish out from there as I show it sprouting out from my hat.

Lola: Really. Mmm, that must've been really strange. Do you have any idea what could've happened Lucy?

Lola says in a suspense tone. Knowing that her powers turn water into ice, she plays it off as she too doesn't know.

Lucy: I-I don't know. I just hold the bucket like Luan told me to and this happens.

Lola: If you say so.

Lucy takes of Lola tone of voice. Luan then walks back as she grabs another bucket.

Luan: Alright, lets try this with warmer water.

Lucy eyes widen as Luan said that the next bucket is warm water then normal.

Luan: Lucy, would you mind.

Lucy: Uhh, I don't... I mean... I can't...

Luan: Water you waiting for? Just hold for me. Hehe.

Luan hands the bucket to Lucy as not even two seconds, Lucy's hands started getting blisters from the hot water.

Lucy: Ah, ow!

She lets out a shout of pain as she dropped the bucket as she shakes her hands trying to ease off the blisters. The entire family seemed dumbfounded from what just recently happened.

Luan: Jezz, I knew it was hot but I didn't think it was that hot? Okay, forget this act let's go for another one.

Soon then, Luan comes out with a couple of candles and a mirror with her.

Luan: This trick, I have my volunteer stand in center of these candles as I chant the magic words to reveal a side of my volunteer's persona.

Lisa: This is very unusual for Luan to do.

Lincoln: You think, what could give Luan an idea like this?

Lincoln says as Lola watches in amusement.

Lola: (Quietly) You'll see why, Lincoln.

Luan sets up everything as she aligned the mirror and lights up the candles around in a circle.

Luan: Now, if my volunteer would kindly step into the center of the circle and face towards the mirror, we'll then begin the act.

Lucy walked into the circle of candles as she looks directly at the mirror. While Luan was preparing the act, Lucy takes notice that she is beginning to sweat from her head as the candles her making too warm. Lynn takes notice of it first.

Lynn: Hey Luc, is it suddenly getting hot to you or are you just getting nervous because you seem to sweating?

The entire family too notices it.

Lynn Sr.: Are you getting a fever, Lucy?

Lucy: N-no! I-I just nervous l, alright.

Luan then begins the following performance.

Luan: Now I will chant the magic words as the mirror will reveal a part persona of my volunteer.

Luan wiggles her fingers as she begins the act.

Luan: Obro-Ryiugen, Person-Asondia, OPEN SESAME!

The mirror slowly fogs into a blur as it catches everyone's attention, including Lucy's. As the mirror was soon to back to reveal Lucy's so-called persona, the mirror forms to show Lucy dressed more dark with a glowing light on her chest. Turns out the mirror is revealing her Blade form. The family sees it only slightly as it was slowly was coming clearer in the reflection and gasps from the sight of it. Seeing her family's reaction to it, she immediately kicks the mirror down as it shatters into pieces.

Luan: Ah! Hey, why did you do that?

Lucy: Uhh, sorry, I thought I saw a bug on the mirror.

The entire family looked at her again dumbfounded.

Luan: Well, you're owning me a new mirror. I'd make a joke about this now, but now I'm not in the mood for it.

She and Lucy cleans up everything before continuing the act.

Lucy: Can I leave now? I said before I'm not volunteering type.

Luan: Not yet. Just one more trick.

She draws her attention to the family.

Luan: For my last act, I will make this small rag disappear from all of your very eyes, and make it return for your very surprise!

Luan hold up a small rag as she puts it into her hat as she taps her wand on the hat to then show to everyone that the rag is gone. The family applauded to it.

Lana: So, where's the rag?

Luan: Glad you asked, why it so happens...

Luan starts walking towards Lucy as she starts getting unease.

Lucy: What are you doing?

Luan: Relax, it so happens that it's underneath my volunteer shirt. Oh, but what's this?

Luan pulls out the familiar rag out behind Lucy's shirt as she starts pulling out more rags tied to the first one. Fearing of Luan spotting her crystal, Lucy tries to make stop.

Lucy: Luan, please stop! You're making me feel uncomfortable!

Luan: Hold still, just a couple more-

Before Luan could finish, she spots a turquoise glow underneath Lucy's shirt as she jumps back in shock as the remaining rags she pulls out from Lucy's shirt happens to covered in ice. The family sees it as they wonder what just went on.

Luan: W-w-w-what was that?!

Rita: Something wrong, honey?

Lynn Sr.: Everything alright?

Luan: I-I think I just saw something glowing underneath Lucy's shirt! And I know it's my tricks because my rags are completely frozen!

Lola: Really?! What are hiding underneath your shirt, Lucy?

Said Lola in a non-suspense tone. The family looks directly at her as Lucy is beginning to get scared of her family getting suspicious.

Lucy: Uhh, I- ummm, well, er...

Luan: Lucy, hold still and let us see what is under there.

Luan gets close to Lucy as she tries to see what's underneath her shirt, not wanting them to discover her secret, she tries to get Luan to back off.

Lucy: No! No! No! Get away! Please don't get any close to me! Noooo!

Lucy tried to fight off Luan as she tries to see what's underneath Lucy's shirt. As it goes on, Lucy backs away as she doesn't noticed that she was about to walk off stage.

Lincoln: Luan stop! Lucy's about to walk off stage!

It soon prove futile as Lucy step back once more as she loses balance and falls back off stage.

Lucy: Whaaaa!

As she hit the floor, her crystal then activates as it glows through her shirt as it then turns her into her Blade form. The entire family gasped in shock as they witness Lucy's transformation. Lucy sits up as she realizes that she turned into her Blade form and her family is looking directly at her in complete shock.

Lucy: Uhhhh.

Leni: What just happened?

Luna: Dude, how did she change her outfit in sudden spark?

Lana: Is that glowy thing on her chest is what she was hiding from us?

Lisa: I cannot being to comprehend the following event happening now?

Lola: I knew it! Lucy had superpowers all this time! And she's the Ice Princess!

Now that her family now knows, Lucy begins to be scared as her everyone begins to get up.

Lori: Lucy, would you like to explain all of this?

Lynn Sr. : What happened to you, honey?

As everyone started speaking, in complete fear, Lucy immediately gets up and runs back towards the kitchen.

Lincoln: Lucy wait! Where are you going!

Not listening, she runs through the kitchen and burst through the back door and runs out the backyard. The family tries to follow her only to then lose her as they stood out the backyard in disbelief as they seen that she's nowhere to be found.

Lynn Sr: Lucy! Lucy!

Luna: Dudes, she's pretty fast to outrun us like that.

Rita: Lynn, what's happened to my baby?

Lynn Sr.: I don't know.

He held onto his wife as he looks towards their kids.

Lynn Sr.: Loud family, I know we're all still in shock from discovering what your sister was hiding from us, but now is not the time to think of this. Right now, we have put that aside and look for her. Lori, Luna, Lana, and Lisa you girls, with me, we're going to ask around the neighborhood if they spot where Lucy had ran off too. Rita, you, Leni, Luan, Lynn, Lincoln, Lola and Lily take Vansilla and go straight to police department and file and lost child report! If anyone finds anything about Lucy, call either me or your mother. Everyone clear?

The entire family nods in understanding, especially Leni.

Lynn Sr.: Good, Loud family, Fallout!

The entire family goes to do their task their father had assign them to, however only Lynn was still standing where she still is and looking out at the field where they assume she run off to.

Lynn: Lucy, what is going on? What are you, or what's happened to you?

Rita: Lynn Jr.!

Hear her mom, she turns to head towards her only to stop as she turns her head back towards the field.

Lynn: Luc, whatever's going on with you, please be alright.

She then turns back and heads back with the family in their search for her.
