Hello! Finally the 19th Chapter of BfD is complete and ready to read!Last Chapter The Mysterians made a deal with ARGGH to search the ghosts that haunt Royal Woods.

And Lola finally got the doll she wanted, but she didn't knew the doll had something wrong with.

Let's see how this deal affected the town.

DISCLAIMER: I do NOT own The Loud House.


A week passed the Mysterians made the alliance with ARGGH. That Alliance consisted with ARGGH investigate and find a ghost for the Mysterians to force it to the other world, being recorded by ARGGH for their TV show in the process.

The entire country didn't speak about anything else, the ratings of the ARGGH!! Tv show was in the space, and it wouldn't drop any time soon. The popularity of the show also spawn a controversy about the existence of paranormal. Some believed in what they seen in the TV show, others, though that everything was fake.

One thing that was also discussed was the group of kids that were fighting the ghosts, the enygmatic Mysterians. And the most discussed thing about the Mysterians, was the one that actually was a ghost. That one, was a strange one. He really was a ghost? Why he allied with these kids? Why he was fighting his own kind?

Because of the fuzz, Royal Woods began to receive a large amount of tourists, people that came from every part of the country to see with their own eyes the called "Most haunted Town in the world".

With the Kids, nothing much interesting happened, well, if you don't count the half of dozen ghosts they fought in this in this very brief space of time.

Any of them were much of a challenge for the Mysterians, that started to get the hand of the job. Of course, some were more difficult, like the one that was haunting the Car Wash, where Clyde almost drowned when the Car Wash flooded.

Others were very straight forward, like the ghost who was haunting a boutique, the kids just arrived there, with the call of ARGGH and almost instantly used the amulet to send the ghost to the other world.

Each victory was a achievement for the kids, two weeks ago, they had barely won against a really monstrous ghost in the shopping, and now, they were defeating ghosts almost every day.

But that wasn't enough for Lincoln. In the dark of the night, he laid on his bed, authout being able to sleep. Had he done the right thing making the deal with ARGGH? He did the deal to have a way to locate the next ghost they should fight, and simultaneously, secure their identities. But was that the best way?

Lincoln shaked that thoughts of his mind. He turned to his side, trying to sleep. But he still couldn't. He sat on his bed and massaged his eyes. Maybe a cup of milk helps

The ghost boy got out of the bed and walked out of the room, don't bothering to even open the door, he walked down the corridor. As he was about to walk down the stairs, a sound of a door opening caught his attention.

Lincoln looked the corridor, and saw that the door of the twins was opened, but nothing had leaved it. The boy went there, and peaked inside the room of the twins.

Due the darkness, Lincoln could only see the shapes of the two sisters in bed, peacefully snorring in their sleep. The boy looked to the floor, maybe one of Lana's pets got out of their cage.

But no, the floor had only one of the dolls of Lola. Lincoln shrugged and closed the door.


In the breakfast, Lincoln munched slowly his cereal, that cup of milk didn't helped much.

"Hello everyone!" Greeted Lola as she entered the dining room, holding her new doll, that Lincoln still didn't knew how she got it.

"Hi." Greeted back some of the sisters.

"So Lincoln." Started Lynn. "You're going to your HQ today after school?" Questioned the athlete. Lincoln shaked his head.

"We decided to take a day off, we've been so occupied with the ARGGH missions that we almost hadn't time for homework and ourselves, this weekend will use for that." Explained Lincoln, eating a spoonful of his cereal.

"No Livy, stop saying that!" Spoke Lola to the doll that was sitting in her lap, Lincoln looked his sister.

"Talking to the doll again Lola?" Asked Lincoln with a tired smile. Lola looked up to the brother.

"Sorry Lincoln, Livy here said she thought you are weird." Lola excused. Lincoln lifted a eyebrow, still smiling gently.

"Why'd she think that?" Asked Lincoln.

"I don't know, she won't tell me." Answered Lola.


Some time later, Lincoln fell asleep in the couch as he watched the Ace Savvy cartoon. Finally he had some sleep. When he woke, he cleaned his eyes, seeing that the channel has been changed, to a news channel. He looked around the living room. He was alone. Noises came from the second floor, so Lincoln deduced that his sisters were upstairs.

Lincoln sat up and stretched his arms. What a good nap he had. The boy looked to the armchair to his left, and got a jumpscare as he saw Lola's doll sitting there.

Lincoln took a second to recompose himself from the jumpscare, the doll was sitting on the armchair, pointing to the tv, like it was watching it. Probably Lola had been here, changed the channel and forgot the doll here.

Lincoln shrugged again as he yawned and turned of the tv, walking upstairs.


Hours later, Lynn Sr. Called out to his offsprings for lunch as he put on the table the meatloaf he prepared. "GIRLS! LINCOLN! LUNCH IS READY!!" A stampede could be heard as the siblings walked down the stairs to the dinning room. As Lincoln sat on the table, he noticed that Lola didn't had her doll with her. Good, that doll made Lincoln chill. He also realized that one of his sisters was absent.

"Where's Luan?" Asked the Ghost boy.

"Coming!" Luan spoke from the top of the stairs. She started walking down the stairwell, whistling. And out of nowhere, she tripped. While she fell forwards, she felt like the time froze. As she flipped in the air, she was able to quickly glance in what she tripped.

Lola's doll was laying there in the middle of the step, she didn't saw it before. How? Luan looked up, she saw a step coming closer of her eyes. In the trajectory she was making in the air, she would hit her head. If she was unlucky, she would break her neck. In these microseconds, she felt like she was going to die. Luan closed her eyes as she prepared for the hit.

But she didn't. She slowly opened her eyes, she was at centimeters from hitting the floor. The girl looked back, and saw Lincoln, with his lower body phasing through the wall, holding his sister by her shirt.

Lincoln slowly turned Luan upwards, setting her feet on ground. "Are you alright?" Asked Lincoln, phasing the rest of his body of the wall.

"I... I think I am... thank you Lincoln..." Answered Luan, still startled.

"You need to be carefull Luan! By the way you were falling, you'd had got injured! Very bad!" Scolded Lincoln.

"I'm sorry Lincoln, I... tripped..." The girl looked past her brother. Looking after the doll that she tripped on. But the doll had vanished.

"Tripped?" Repeated Lincoln, he looked back to the stair and back to Luan. "On what?"

"I... stripped my lungs in fear! Get it?" Spoke Luan, before making a awkward laugh.

Lincoln raised a eyebrow. "Ok... come on, let's eat!" Lincoln spoke, floating down to the floor and walking back to the dining room, being accompanied by Luan.


The next day, Monday, Lori took her younger siblings to school using Vanzilla. First She dropped Lisa and Lily on the primary school. Next stop was Royal Woods elementary school. Were Lucy, Lana and Lola dropped. Lincoln saw that Lola still had her doll with her. Lincoln rolled his eyes.

As Vanzilla drove away, Lincoln observed Lola, she was walking to the entrance, although, Lincoln could tell that she was walking in a strange manner. She looked like in those movies where a person is in a trance. But before Lincoln started to get worried, Vanzilla made a turn.


"We're rocking!" Gloated Rusty, it was lunch time and he and the other kids were sitting on their usual table at the corner of the cafeteria. They adopted that table because it was more far away from the others, what gave more privacy for them.

"Keep your voice down Rusty." Warned Clyde looking back to the cafeteria, full of students.

"Oh, sorry. But you have to agree that we are the best ghost hunters in the world!" Spoke Rusty with a confident smile. Zack laughed a little.

"I'm pretty sure that we are the only Ghost hunters in the world." Stated Zack drinking from his grape juice box.

"Or at least from Michigan!" Intervained Liam, and the three redheads laughed. Stella joined them, and spoke with a smirk.

"Are you forgetting that Lincoln is the one who had to be the one gloating right?" She asked, the redheads, and Lincoln, who was distracted looking to a wall, turned his head to her.

"What?" The five boys spoke to the girl.

"Look, not that we aren't useful, but let's be honest, Lincoln's the one who does the hard part of the job, he is the one who fights the ghosts head on, he is the one who exorcises the ghost, what we do is support him." The boys looked down. They knew that was true.

Seeing that his friends here starting to feel bad, Lincoln, thought quickly. And spoke. "Oh, come on guys, that's not true! Well, maybe the part of supporting is true, but your support is essential for the team! Come on! Without Clyde's strategies, Zack's quick thinking, Liam's skill, Stella's accuracy and Rusty's... Creativity? We wouldn't even be close were we are today." That made the other Mysterians smile.

"Thanks Lincoln. We needed to hear that." Thanked Clyde. "But still... I wonder if we can catch at least one ghost without you."

"Of course you can! You all are great!" Lincoln grabbed the amulet from his pocket. "Anyone can use this, you only need to place on a ghost's forehead."

"Yeah." Spoke Clyde. "But we have only one of this thing, and since you're the one who keeps it..." Before Lincoln could answer, seemingly from nowhere, Girl Jordan popped over Lincoln's shoulder.

"What is this thing?" She questioned suddenly, making Lincoln jump from the scare.

Lincoln took a second to regain her breath before speaking back. "Girl Jordan? What are doing?"

"Oh, nothing." Jordan shoved Rusty aside to make room for her to seat on Lincoln's side. "What were you talking about?" She asked, getting her face very close to Lincoln's.

"Uh..." Lincoln looked to his friends, but they also didn't knew what to respond. "We're talking about our, uh, last movie night!"

"Seriously?" Asked Jordan, moving her face away from Lincoln's.

"Yeah!" Interrupted Clyde, getting into the lie. "Yesterday... We decided to what classics from the silent era of cinema!"

"What?" Spoke both Jordan and the other Mysterians, confused. But the later quickly confirmed the statement.

"I see." Spoke Jordan getting up from the seat. "I thought you were talking about that group that is appearing in ARGGH!!" She turned around and started walking back. But Lincoln asked.

"What do you think about them?" Lincoln wondered what Jordan had in mind about them.

Jordan took a second before answering. "I think they are good people." She paused and turned her head to see Lincoln. "Even if they are working with a ghost." She resumed walking.

For some reason, that hit Lincoln hard. What did she meant by that?


After school, in the Mysterian HQ, The kids were scattered in the place, Lincoln was helping Stella practice her aim, Rusty was taking a nap on a branch of the tree that supported the treehouse, Clyde was ending his homework and Zack and Liam were playing checkers.

They heard honking of a horn coming as the van from ARGGH arrived at the headquarters. As the van was pulling over, Lincoln became invisible for them not seeing him without his wig. As soon the van pulled, Nathan, Mabel and Gideon got out of it. "Heya!" Greeted Nathan.

"Guys!" Called Stella to the other who were inside the treehouse to get down there.

"How are my little allies?" Asked Nathan.

"You have a ghost for us?" Asked Lincoln, appearing, floating down, now with his red wig on.

Oh, we have a good one!" Spoke Mabel excited. "We followed some rumors and discovered this abandoned donut shop that in the dark of the night, exhales the sweet smell of freshly made donuts!"

"Yeah, that sounds cool!" Spoke Clyde. "You're giving us a ride, right?"

"Of course! Hop on!" Spoke Nathan.

When Lincoln was about to move, his cellphone called. "Just a second, it's Lori." He asked as he answered his cellphone. "Hello? Lori?

"LINCOLN, IS LOLA THERE WITH YOU?" Questioned Lori with a desperate tone of voice.

"No, why?" Asked Lincoln, getting nervous.

"She wasn't with the others when I arrived to take them home. Lana even said that she didn't saw Lola all day! She isn't home, the neighbors didn't saw her, she is missing!" Explained with desperation. Lincoln felt a chill.

"Ok, I'm going out to search her immediately!" Said Lincoln hanging up and turning to the others, that were confused. "Lola's missing!"

"Oh god!" Exclamed Clyde.

"I'm going search her!" Said Lincoln

"Wait, and the ghost?" Asked Rusty. Lincoln grabbed the amulet from his pocket and hand it to Clyde.

"Just put it in it's forehead!" Claimed Lincoln, before floating up.

"Wait, Lincoln!" Asked Lincoln, who looked down. "Are you sure?"

"Yes, You can do this without me!" Assured Lincoln, flying of. The group took some seconds, looking Lincoln flying, before Mabel asked.

"So he's name is Lincoln?" Asked Mabel. The eyes of the Mysterians went wide.


Lincoln flew over Royal Woods as fast he could, think where Lola could be. Where Lola liked to be... Where, where, where... The theater! Where the pageants realized in Royal Woods took place. He flew to the theater and searched the entire building. She wasn't there. Well, she had mentioned that the pageant season wasn't going to start until the next month...

But where she is them... Oh. Lincoln snap his fingers. Her ballet class. Lincoln flew to the community center, where Lola's ballet class took place. Well. She wasn't there either.

Lincoln floated above the city, trying to figure where she could be. Then, he remembered what Lori said. Lana haven't seen her twin all day. He had to search in their school. And there he went.

He arrived at the school as the sun was setting, and the darkness was arriving. Lincoln searched the classes, the cafeteria, the gym, the basement and even the bathrooms. But she wasn't anywhere. Lincoln was starting to panic.

He was about to leave the school grounds when he remembered. The Janitor's shack. He flew to the front of the shack, and saw the door locked with chains. As he approached, he heard muffled sounds. With his heart beating hardly, he grabbed the chains and pushed, without even minding his strength, Lincoln pulled the hinges clean off

"LOLA!" Lincoln exclamed as he saw his sister tied to a pipe with both arms and legs restrained. Her mouth, muffled. "GOOD GOD I FOUND YOU!" Spoke Lincoln as he freed Lola.

"LINCOLN!" Gasped Lola as soon her mouth was unmuffled. "THANK YOU!" She hugged her brother tightly. "She said she wanted to show me something, she tied me and locked me on the shack! I heard Lori coming minutes ago, I think she took Lori too!" Lola was very scared and was talking very fast, Lincoln almost couldn't understand her.

"Lola, breath, Who tied you?" Asked Lincoln.

"Livy!"


Minutes earlier

Lori arrived with Vanilla back at the front of the school. Maybe Lola was there now. She walked off Vanzilla and walked to the front of the building. No, Lola wasn't nowhere to be seen.

"Lola!" She sighed, it was worth the shot. She knew that Lincoln was also searching for her. Lori started walking back to Vanzilla before something moving in the corner of her eyes catch her attention.

She looked in that direction and saw in something laying in the grass. It was dark already dark, so took Lori a few steps before she recognized what it was. It was Lola's doll.

Lori grabbed the doll took a last look around, but Lola wasn't really nowhere. The eldest Loud sighed again and walked back to Vanzilla.

As Lori entered the van, she tossed the doll in the passenger seat and sat in the driver's. As she buckled the seatbelt, she looked to the doll and thought something. The young woman grabbed the doll,l and pressed the bottom in her chest

"I'm Livy doll! Wanna be friends?" The silicone mouth moved as the voice came out. That type of doll always creeped Lori.

Lori turned the doll around lifted her dress, exposing the plastic back of the doll, where the battery compartment was and opened it.

Lori's heart stopped for a second when she saw that was empty.

With a clear turn, the doll's head twisted back, facing Lori and spoke again.

"I'm Livy doll! And I don't like people seeing my private parts!" Lori screamed and tossed the doll against the passenger's door. For Lori's horror, Livy slowly stood up and looked to Lori. The two looked at each other, Lori was too afraid for moving.

Suddenly, Livy jumped against Lori, the girl reflection was quick enough to grab the doll, who was flailing it's tiny arms back and forth. Before something slipted out of the doll's sleeve.

The doll grabbed the knife that slipted and pressed against Lori's neck.

"I could kill you." Said Livy. "But I have other plans." The doll grinned.


Lincoln flew through the night sky, with Lola holding in his back like the times they played horse. They were flying back home.

"So, your doll talked to you all this time?" Repeated Lincoln.

"Yes, at first, I thought it was just another feature of the doll, but it started to ask our names, and saying mean things. It forced me to carry it around..." Lincoln frowned and curled his hands into fists.

"And you think Lori's in danger now?" Asked Lincoln. Lola felt a tone of anger in his voice. She took a second to answer.

"I heard she struggling..." She spoke.

"And since Vanzilla wasn't there..." Continued Lincoln.

"I have a bad feeling about it." Spoke Lola as Lincoln started to fly down, the Loud House was getting close.

As Lincoln's feet hit the ground, he crouched to get Lola down. Vanzilla was parked right in the front yard, the front door wide open and the light of living Room illuminated the front porch that otherwise, would've been in dark.

Lincoln took a step further, but Lola didn't. The boys looked back, and saw Lola. She was scared. He sighed and walked back, crouching to meet her eye levels. "Lola."

"I'm scared Lincoln." She spoke.

"It's ok being scared." Assured Lincoln to his little sister.

"But Lincoln! Probably that mean doll is inside there right now! And it's my fault!"

"No it's not." Spoke Lincoln.

"Yes, it is! I brought the doll inside our house without even knowing where it came from! All because I wanted that stupid doll!"

"Lola. You didn't knew that the doll had something weird with. Of you're feeling guilty, then come with me help kick that doll's butt!" Said Lincoln, offering his hand.

"Ok." Spoke Lola nodding and accepting his hand.

As they walked in the front porch, Lola asked Lincoln. "Do you have your amulet, I feel like we'll need it."

"Well, I don't have it with me, it's with the others."

"Great..."

Both walked to the house, Lola held Lincoln's hand all the way and both entered the house.

"Oh, there's the two I wanted to see!" Spoke Livy as soon the two crossed the doorway. In the living room, all the other Louds were standing, Livy was on Lori's shoulder, still holding the knife in her throat. Lincoln felt his ghostly blood boiling.

"What do you want with us? What do you want from my family?" Questioned Lincoln with his eyes in fire. Livy chuckled.

"As any other ghost in this town, I was attracted to this house by na enormous amount of ghost energy, but, before I could get here, I ended trapped here!" With it's empty hand, Livy pointed at it's own chest. "But I was able to find my way here, and Lola found me!" the little princess gulped. "I was planning to transfer myself into her today, to get Lincoln by surprise, but Lori here found me and here we are!"

"If you were planning to posses me, why'd you didn't did when I found you?" Questioned Lola getting angry.

"I needed to figure a way to transfer myself from a body to another! Didn't you heard that I'm stuck here you stupid brat?" Spat Livy, making Lola frown angrily and make Lincoln almost foam with rage. "I also thought that, while I wasn't able to transfer myself, I tried pulling a little prank at the prankster here."

"So it really was you who made me trip?" Spat Luan wrathful. "I could have died!" The doll made a malicious grin.

"That was kind of the idea!" It said before chuckling again. "But let's cut the bullshit!" Livy jumped from Lori's shoulder into the coffee table, pointing it's knife at Lola. "Now come here, and let me posses your bod-" Livy was interrupted by Lynn, who swinged a baseball bat on the doll, making her fly and bounce off the wall and to the floor.

"Come on guys, It's just a stupid toy!" Spoke Lynn pointing her bat at Livy who was still disoriented in the ground. The Loud Family approached the doll, Lori noticed that Livy dropped the knife, and rushed to pick it.

"Wait!" Livy said reaching for the knife, but Lori was faster and catch it before the doll could. "Hey that is mine!" Livy said, before turning to the rest of the siblings, who looked down the doll with expressions of rage.

Just Lincoln that wasn't there, menacingly looking at Livy. He was still at the spot he was before. Paralyzed by rage. Trembling. Foaming. How that little thing dared? How it dared to tie Lola in a dark shack? To nearly kill Luan by tripping in the stairs, to put a knife in Lori's neck and take her and his family as hostages? Lincoln wanted to move. Lincoln wanted to attack that little demon. But the amount of anger he was feeling made him immobile. His muscles didn't responded, just shaked like crazy.

"This is for trying to kill me!" Cried Luan kicking Livy across the floor.

"Good kick sis!" Complimented Lynn.

"Thanks" Said Luan. Lori approached Livy who was trying to get back on it's feet.

"This is for pressing this knife on my neck!" Lori also kicked Livy, who flied right into the fireplace of the house. The possessed doll shaked it's head and slowly raised it's head, seeing Lola, right in front of her, ready to lit the fireplace.

"Huh... Lola, sorry for tying you, please, we still can be friends to the end!" Pleaded Livy.

"This is the end... Friend." Said Lola, turning the register, litting the fireplace. Livy screamed as it's body burned. The cries of pain made Lincoln smile for a fraction of second.

And slowly, the cries of pain turned into laughs of joy. This catch the attention of everyone, including Lincoln. From the fireplace, emerged a tall, greenish, translucent ghost of a man he skinny, had a greasy hair that went just above his shoulders.

"How I didn't thought about that earlier? Destroying that ridiculous vessel, I would had possessed You brat much earlier!" The ghost spoke, diving in Lola's direction.

But Lincoln tackled the ghost before it could touch Lola. With the tackle, both ghosts flew through the walls, hitting the grass in the backyard of the house. As the Louds ran to the backyard, Lincoln and the other ghost traded punches in the air. With a quick swoop, Lincoln was able to pin the ghost to the floor, and started to punch the ghost's face mercilessly.

"You. Don't. Even. Think. In. Touching. My. Sister. Again!" With each word Lincoln spoke, he punched. With each punch, Lincoln's strength grew as he stopped holding back. A minute passed, and Lincoln was still punching the face of the ghost, now buried in a little crater. The face of the ghost was completely painted in red as the blood from both the ghost's face and Lincoln's knuckle. But Lincoln didn't cared about that, he was discounting all that rage he was feeling. He didn't felt so much anger before in life or death. His eyes, glowing a fierce red.

Either the siblings and the parents were shocked at what they were seeing. They hated that ghost and all the danger it put them, but seeing how brutal Lincoln was, they couldn't feel anything but pity for that ghost.

"LINCOLN STOP!" Shouted Lori, she couldn't see her little brother doing something like that anymore. She and the other older sisters sprinted to hold Lincoln back

"LINCOLN STOP!" Pleaded Luna, holding Lincoln's arms, but she wasn't strong enough, to hold him. He just continued punching

How a ghost of 11 year old boy can be so strong? Though Lynn as she also struggled to hold Lincoln.

"LINCOLN! IT'S OVER! THE GHOST IS DOWN!" Screamed Lori again, trying to pull his brother back by his shoulder.

"IT'S GOOD LINCOLN! YOU MADE IT? YOU CAN STOP!" Spoke Luan also holding him.

"LINKY PLEASE, YOU'RE SCARING US!" Shouted Leni, tearing up. This made Lincoln stop.

His fist still raised. Blood droplets dripping from his wounded Knuckle. The glow in Lincoln's eyes faded. The anger in him faded. And guilty took it's place. Tears started to flow out his eyes. The ghost was completely immobile. He knew the ghost wasn't dead, because, well. But that thing he made the ghost's face.

How this happened? How he could feel so anger? These thoughts paired his head. He felt a warm hand in his shoulder. When he looked up, Lori looked back at him.

"I'm sorry." Lincoln said with his voice breaking.

"It's okay Lincoln. I called Clyde and the others, they'll be here to exorcise this one in no tim-" The girl looked at Lincoln. He had broken into sobs.

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry." He spoke between sobs. Lori hugged the boy, and the rest of the sisters joined, one by one, into a collective hug.


N/A: This chapter was obviously inspired by child's play, even the name I took it. so, well, I think I don't need to explain much what inspired me with Livy doll.

I even took a line from the movie, one of my favorite One-Liners of cinema.
