Yay! I'm done with writer's block.

I'll try to publish, but I've also decided that it's my fanfiction. So fair warning, it quickly gets repetitive, but I'm not changing it. But I found it a lot of fun to write, and with the world as it is, I think we all just need something fun and lighthearted (most of the time) to read. Plus, publishing stuff I did like two years ago really has helped me realize how much I've grown, and I think you'll be able to see this as it goes on. I say that because I've been doing some reflecting. At first I basically copy their summaries into episodes, but later on I'm just taking the name and going wild, and even adding in my own ones. What I'm saying is, I'm not changing it. And if you don't like it, well you can leave. Sorry if this sounds rude, but I've just had a long time to think some things over, and if I don't take risks, I'll never grow. And at least this isn't a troll fanfic.

This one was MariotheKing before they got rid of it for...reasons.


"Hey guys! Guess what?" Bobby said, while Carlota was busy doing her zen time. "Me and Ronnie Anne are going to spend a week at Royal Woods!"

"To see Lori and Lincoln again." That got Carlota's attention, did Frida, and Carlos, and her three brothers, and Tia Maria, and….you get the idea.

"You're boyfriend and girlfriend?" they asked with wide grins like a cheshire cat. "Bobby and Lori, Ronnie and Lincoln?" Bobby also smiled.

"No, no, no, no, no." Ronnie Anne said, shaking her hands. "We're not boyfriend or girlfriend. We're just friends. Got it?" they all laughed. Just friends? My boot. "Ugh!" Her Prima groaned. "Anyway, if anyone wants to come, they say they have some room in the attic, just don't bring a lot." Well….I would like to meet the rest of the family, Lori was very fun to do a makeover of, and I would like to get to know my future sisters-in-law.

"I'll come." Carlota offered, "I want to meet my future siblings-in law." she winked at Bobby and Ronnie Ann. Bobby smiled, and Ronnie Anne rolled her eyes.


"So, you're coming as well Carlota?" Lori asked, "It'll be literally the best time of your life! Plus, I know for a fact that we have a ton of good guys our age in huge supply."

"Thanks Lori, but I want a guy who loves my heart, not my body." Carlota said, "But I can't wait to meet your siblings! Though question: why was the light brunette so quiet when we visited for thanksgiving?"

"She lost her voice punning too hard at her various gigs." Lori said, before eye rolling. "Though when Lisa wrote her transcript of events that occurred, Luan hand worte in some jokes she would've made."

"She sounds like a comedian." Carolota said, before tapping her chin thoughtfully. "I wonder how she would stack up to Ronnie Ann's pranking."

"I'd lose." Ronnie growled, "The first year she did it, she pranked the entire house, you wouldn't believe it. Lincoln not having eyebrows, was the least damaged part of him."

"Sounds like the biggest emergency.." Carlota mused, but didn't say anything else. Frankly, now she was a little scared of her, if she made Ronnie admit she was better than her, she was a force to be reckoned with.

"Relax." Lori said, keeping her eyes on the road. "She's only scary on April First. Otherwise, she's more annoying than painful." oh.


Soon they were at a rather large looking house. Lori opened the door, and two little girls were busy fighting each other. "Lana! Lola! What's going on?" Lori asked.

"Lana's snake laid eggs in my gown!" the one in a pink dress-Lola-snarled. "TELL HER SHE HAS TO PAY TO GET IT CLEANED!"

"Tell Lola she should be honored!" The one in overalls replied. "She thinks your gown is a safe and warm place for her eggs." Carlota's face went white.

"Ugh." Lori groaned, "We have guests, so for this week, if I see so much as one scale of any of your snakes….." Lori let the threat hang, before saying. "Here, let me show you where you're staying."

"There are snakes?" Carlota asked in a low whisper. "Seriously? Who let's a little girl have a snake?" Suddenly, a green snake slithered out of a room, and chased after Carlota.

"No! Bad El Dabio!" Lana said, blocking him. "You're not allowed to bug any guests. Got it?" The snake hissed, but slithered away. "No worries, I promise to keep all my animals in my room."

"BUT THEY BETTER NOT TOUCH MY STUFF!" Lola roared, and Lori ignored her, pulling down a string, and showing her the attic.

"Here's our old beds." Lori said, pointing to a corner. "And some beds Leni made." Some beds were interciatly done, woven with patterns of angels, sheeps, and whatnot.

"Wow." Carlota said at one that had an image of a girl brushing her hair with a comb all over it. "Your parents lived the high life." Lori laughed.

"No, Leni made those. I used to tell her to get a ride to the mall she'd have to make my bed….she took it way too seriously. Take your pick."

"I'll take this one." Carlota said, looking at the one that was made like a princess bed, with dozens of mirrors engraved on it. Ronnie Anne selected one that had skateboard marks on it, and Bobby picked a simple one. "By the way, where on earth did your sister learn to make these?"

"Trial and error." Lori chuckled, "Whenever Lola tries to blackmail Leni into doing her chores for her, she makes ten more beds. We sell some of them, but her best work we keep up here."

"The seven year old?" Carlota asked, raising an eyebrow. Lori nodded, crossing her arms. "Doesn't she get mad? She…..seems to have a short fuse."

"I HEARD THAT!" Lola roared from below. "AND….You are absolutely right." she said pleasantly, before shouting again. "DON'T YOU FORGET IT!"

"Yeath, but then when she sees the bed Leni made her, she can't get mad, and we force her to sell one or the other." Lori said like Lola had never spoken.

"Anyway." Bobby said, "Lori and I will be catching up. Ronnie Anne, do you want to hang with Lincoln?" Ronnie Anne smiled. "And Carlota….um...I heard there's a mall here."

"That does sound nice." Carlota said, taking out her phone, and started up her GPS. Suddenly, the attic door barged open, and a girl with platinum blonde hair Carlota recognized as….Lynn was it? Charged up.

"The mall?" she shrieked. "Can I go with you? I know the way." Carlota turned to Lori, who shrugged and walked with Bobby, so Carlota shrugged. Lynn? Walked down the street with Carlota. "Anyway, I know we met at Thanksgiving, but in case you forgot, my name's Leni."

Carlota mentally face palmed, how did she get that so wrong? For Pete's sake, her and her brothers' names were all just variations of Carlos! How was she so bad when the names were only four letter and L names?

Whatever. Plantumbe blond, teenanger Leni. I hope I don't regret using hair color and age. But I'm pretty sure she and Lori are the only teenage blondes. They talked the whole way there-it took like an hour-and then Leni said. "I always think it's best to learn the mall on your own. That way, the experience is truly new." She then gave Carlota her number. "Call me if you get lost."

She then left, and Carlota shrugged. She then walked down the halls. "Hi." She turned and saw a guy with brown hair and dark brown skin, and something about the way his hair was done, or his slightly muscled frame seemed...handsome. "You must be new here, want a fro-yo?"

"Sorry...but I'm mostly just here looking for clothes." Carlota said, walking over to his stand. "Also, how did you know I was new?" the guy chuckled.

"I have a knack for remembering faces. And with the chaos in this town-mudanme and Akuma related-you see a lot of faces...that, and it's a small town. I'm Brian, what's your name?"

"Carlota." Carlota said, sitting down. "May I please have some of that fro-yo. I do have some extra money on me." mostly babysitting money, but he didn't have to know.

"What type?" he asked, handing her a menu. "We got many things! Including the Margo Miracle, Huala for Paula, and the Loud Rebound." she gave him a confused look. "We take sports very seriously, and the burping burger was naming their signature burger after them, so we made some new flavors and named them after them. The Loud Rebound is very spicy-only Lynn has eaten it without breathing fire-while the Margo Miracle is kinda spicy, but also rather tasty. While Huala for Paula is very sweet, but tastes like determination."

"I'll take a Huala for Paula." Carlota said, forking over the money. "So….I heard about this Loud family….what's their deal?" Lame, but it was her only conversation piece.

"Well." Brian said, "I don't know much about them: but I do know that there's a lot of them. According to rumor, their parents had eleven kids!" Eleven? Really? I thought it was extended family, maybe a few adopted. Carlota noted. "They cause tons of mayhem, like one time they broke the historical acorn statue of the high school."

"What?!" Carlota could tell by the tone that that was a huge deal. "How?" and so he told her, and soon, her jug of fro-yo was done, and she couldn't eat anymore without gaining weight.

"Well...I hope I'll see you tomorrow." She said, leaving. She then got a call from Leni and picked up after walking away a safe distance. "Hello?"

"Sorry to cut short whatever you're doing, but we need to go before curfew!" Leni said, "Meet you at the exit." Does she remember that I'm new here? Carlota wondered. Oh well, she hadn't wandered far.

"Hey." she turned and saw what she for a brief moment thought was a boy. Her hair was cut like one, and she lacked any boobs, with a raspy voice. But her eyes were an odd color, one blue and one brown. She wore a purple shirt with a skull on it, along with a light purple skirt. "I saw you with that dude, you like him."

"What? Who are you?" Carlota asked, before face palming when her face flashed in her head. "You're one of the loud sisters aren't you?" She nodded, how could Carlota forget? "I do not like him."

"Pshh. I'm the third oldest, and I know when someone's got a crush, especially girls." the girl chuckled. "My name's Luna." Carlota did not forget the fact that she pulled that card on Carl more times than she could count. "And I think he's a decent guy. There-"

"I don't like him!" Carlota shouted, before covering her mouth. Luna shrugged, and walked away. Carlota sighed with relief when she saw that Brian didn't hear.

"Hey Carlota!" Leni said, "Come on!" and so they took a very long walk back, and Carlota changed into her nighties….and found an extremely long line. After that, she went to bed. Side note: Lana sleep farts, and Lola snores.


It was Friday, and in two days she would have to leave. She knew the route by heart, and had spent a good chunk of her babysitting money. "Hey...Brian." She said, before buying any Fro-yo, a girl walked by.

"Oh, hey Carrie!" He said, "Carrie, this is Carlota, she's visiting her future family in law, and comes by every day. Carlota, this is my girlfriend Carrie."

Girlfriend. That single, horrible word echoed around her head. It bounced around like a ping pong ball, and each time seemed worse

Girlfriend.. As if she expected it to change or become something else. Something, closer to friends, a place where she might've had a chance. It didn't.

This is my girlfriend. Carlota put on a fake smile and said. "Oh, I just remembered….I gotta go talk to my cousin." she then walked away, wishing she had already got some.


"Ahhh...the sound of heartbreak. Perfect prey for my akuma." Hawk Moth said, akumatized the butterfly. "Fly away my little akuma, and evilize her!" It went into Carlota's compact mirror. "Hello Xo-chi-quet-zal" cue Hawk Moth with a translator book in his hands.

"Brian doesn't want you, well I'm giving you the power to be desirable for any man. All you have to do is give me Ace's Miraculous, Xochiquetzal."

"With great pleasure."


Lincoln was playing games with Clyde, about to beat him in a dance game when Leni came running in. "Akuma on the loose! She steals your boyfriend!" Cue a mass panic, with Lincoln running up to his sister.

"What happened?" he demanded, frantically looking around at the chaos around, trying to see if he could pick out an akuma, or anything else.

"I don't know! A random woman appeared looking like a version of Teri, but prettier, but when she saw Chaz, she became me, but prettier, she then took Chaz away from me!" she sobbed.

"Ok." Lincoln sighed, "Leni, it's going to be ok. No matter what, Chaz's heart is with you, not whoever that woman was." now if only I knew who it was.

"Lincoln! We got a problem!" Luna and her band charged in, minius the boy. "A random girl that looked like a model came in, shifted forms, and lured Sully away! And I think I know who it is."

"Who?" Lincoln asked immediately and impatiently.

"Carlota, she has a crush on the fro-yo man, but whenever I tried to tell her that he already has a girlfriend, she would ignore me or get mad at me for finding out so easily."

"Well….Ace's got to stop them." He said, walking towards the bathroom. "let our younger sisters know.'' Once there, Fluush flew out.

"Yeesh, and to think we hadn't had an attack all week." Lincoln agreed, with a heavy sigh, and transformed into Ace Savvy to fight the villain.

Meanwhile:


Back at the Loud Residence, Ronnie Anne tugged on Lynn's arm, a horrible gut feeling telling her to get to the mall right that second. "Lynn, Race ya to the mall!"

Ronnie Anne dashed off, "You're on Santigo!" The real reason was so that she had backup for the sinking feeling, without it seeming like she had a crush on her 'boyfriend' Lincoln. Soon they approached it, and people were running and screaming. "What happened?" Lynn demanded.

"AKUMA!" one of the passersby shouted. Carlota and Lincoln are in there! Ronnie Anne thought, and Lynn charged forward, a fire in her eyes. Ronnie Anne followed, and they saw a bored looking woman looking at herself in the mirror.

"Ugh!" she groaned, in Carlota's voice. "Where is Ace and Diamonds? They should be here already!" The women had dark brown hair, reminiscent of a forest, with clear blue eyes that reminded Ronnie of a lake.

"Alright akuma." Lynn growled, "Even if Ace is a little late,behind I can kick your butt on my own." Ronnie Anne slapped her forehead, as Lynn charged forward, dodge a hand out and attempted to pull it back Suddenly, the woman transformed into….something that had a six pack, with a certain hair do, but had well built muscled.

"This is what you find attractive?" The Akuma scoffed, grabbed the now petrified Lynn, and threw her aside like garbage. "Oh, Hey Ronnie Ann! Didn't see you there, what are you doing in the mall?"

"I had a feeling something was off." Ronnie Anne said, "I went in to check on you and….bah….bah." Carlota had turned into what was essentially a more handsome version of Lincoln, with well defined muscles and a lean form, but his eyes still had that spark of kindness in his eyes, as well as his chipped tooth and white hair.

"Ha ha ha!" Carlota laughed, still using her own voice. "I knew you had a crush on this Lincoln kid! Ha ha!" Ronnie Anne shook her head furiously.

"Carlota, whatever happens, whatever Hawk Moth wants….don't give into his demands, remember when I became Animalia?" Carlota shifted back into how she normally looked, with an eye roll.

"Please, unlike you I'm not going on a city wide rampage. Also, I'm Xochiquetzal now." Ronnie Anne pointed to the deserted mall, and lack of people. "Well I did need to attract Ace's and Diamonds' attention somehow. I'm just having them keep Brian away from the area."

"Carlota….why are you doing this?" Ronnie Anne asked "I know you are looking for a boyfriend, but…" A realization dawned. "You found someone, but he's already taken." Wrong move, Xochiquetzal instantly shifted back to Handsome Lincoln, and lunged for her, only for a card to come and attack.

"I thought it might be you, but I had to be sure." Ace said, grabbing Ronnie Ann. "Are you ok? And why does she look like….that?"

Xochiquetzal was shifting yet again, this time taking on an older mexican woman form, with large curves, brave eyes, but bright red lips, dark black hair, and tan skin. Her build was even stronger than weightlifters. "Ha ha ha!" Xochiquetzal laughed, "You find this very handsome."

A huge blush was coming to Ace's face, his jaw was dropping, and Ronnie Anne groaned as he deposited him outside. "Stay out of danger." he then flew back in. He's not going to last five seconds.

Ronnie Anne ran back in, just in time to see Lynn was busy duking it out with the older version of her, AKA Xochiquetzal as her, while Ace was too busy swooning. More accurately, Lynn was busy running around throwing whatever she could get her hands on and barley dodging punches and kicks.


"Excellent." Hawk Moth said as a ring appeared on the Akuma's face, he had the translator book under his arm. "Xochiquetzal, at this rate Brian will be yours to claim. Just remove this civilian from the premise."


Ronnie Anne ran to Ace and slapped him several times. "Get it together! You're supposed to be a hero, but right now a civilian is doing more than you!"

"Bah….bah….bah." he responded, and Xochiquetzal smashed apart a metal computer flung at her, her muscles not just for show. Ronnie Anne rolled her eyes, before asking.

"What is her personality?" Ace didn't answer, as Lynn got slammed against the wall, and they all heard a loud snap! CRACK! Lynn folded down, in the most awkward way. The wall had several large cracks where she was, and then immediately gave wat,

"Lynn!" Ace said, snapping to action. "Leave that civilian alone." Xochiquetzal smirked, and lunged forward, while Ronnie Anne ran over to Lynn.

"Are you ok?" Lynn's back was arched in an unnatural way, as was one arm and a leg, her breathing ragged, but somehow she was still conscious.


Hawk Moth couldn't help but stare. That was quite the horrific injury, and she looked like a preteen. But! He had to continue. After all, she did get in his way.


Ronnie Ann dragged her away, while Ace shook his head violently, snapping out of his trance. Who did that?! He glared at the fake Ronnie Anne, who held out a hand and had such a look he felt something further than his heart. "May I have this dance with you?"

He got onto his card. "Let's dance." he then slammed into her, moving as fast as his card would allow him to. She slammed back into a magazine stand, before she got back up to her feet.

"Clever." She said, her body shifting again. He felt a growing blush on his face, as she gained curvier hips and front, her lips becoming rounder and fuller. Her arms shrank down. She was now wearing a dress, a purple one, sequenced with amethysts that glittered and seemed to make her bronze skin glow all the more brightly. Before he could register it fully, he got a fist to the face. "This is what you really want isn't it?" she asked as she pounded his face in. "A pretty girl, one to love you and care for you."

Shaking his head, he snarled, kicking her in the stomach, forcing the frail girl off of him. "I love the girl! Not the look!" he drew himself up, before charging at the akuma again. "And that's your weakness isn't it? You're only as strong as your physical strength."

She shot him a look. A look that was so tearful, and sad, and yet so dreamy that he froze on the spot. Powerful teary eyes, so tearful that somehow it completely hid, yet also revealed the eyes. So large. So round. So sad. It was swiftly broken by a punch, but not to him. "Have fun seducing me!" Diamonds shouted, throwing another punch. "Ace, are you ok?"

"Why is love so difficult?" he asked, shaking his head to clear the image out of his head. He then glared at the akuma, who was currently taking on a formless red blob shape, with only a mirror that wasn't made out of the blob, in the center. "I bet that's where the akuma is, but how are we supposed to get it?"

"Rip it out of her?" Diamonds suggested, as the blob grew some more. Growing to about six feet tall, packed with a ton of muscles. "Yawn. Is that the best that you can do?" seven feet tall? Ace wondered. Is she getting tired? His eyes widened. Or, she's bound to the physical laws of humans.

"Diamonds, I need you to blind her, and then do rush attacks as much as you can." Ace whispered. "This should try to force her to turn into something she can't."

The blob settled on a little toddler boy with pale skin and light blonde hair with steady blue eyes. Charging at them, Diamonds shouted: "Flashlight!" a blinding light, and Ace charged. Running up to the boy he saw the shapeshifter turn into a different form, whose head was snapping around, as though it was listening to something. The form itself was indistinct, with a mix match of colors in hair, skin and clothing. As though it had just stitched together the form out of desperation.

Taking his chance, Ace surged forward like a tidal wave, and slammed into the akuma. The akuma flailed around, and was turning again, but he kept punching, feeling Diamonds join him. The akuma curled itself up, and melted into the red blob. Reaching in, Ace snatched the mirror and tore it out, before throwing it to Diamonds who threw it against the wall.


Hawk Moth snarled angrily, his gray eyes blazing. Was this his fate? To be continuously outsmarted by these idiots?! ARGH! "I swear Ace," he snarled. "I will be the one to end your existence. No matter the cost."


"Hey." Carlota looked up, and saw a blonde haired girl with a light skin color in front of her, with beautiful brown eyes, sitting across from her. "You were the akuma just a few minutes ago, weren't you?"

"Yeath." Carlota said sheepishly, squeezing her ponytail. "Sorry about that." Sorry? She had trashed the mall and all she could say was 'sorry'?

"It's ok." The girl replied with a wave. "We all make mistakes. And if the akumas keep going at this rate, everyone's going to get akumatized."

"Yeath," Carlota agreed, looking down at her hands, as though they were still made of jell-o. "but I got akumatized over a guy who's dating."

"No worries." The girl replied back. "Take it from me. When it comes to relationships, don't mess with them on the off chance that the guy your after will like you. You'll just dig yourself in a pit. Better to just leave it be, and try to be there for the guy." she made a head gesture to the fro-yo stand.

Carlota smiled warmly at the girl. "Thanks for the advice." she said. "I think it'll really help me."

The girl smiled back, and moved to get out of her seat. "No problem. I've had dating issues too, it seems like all the good guys are taken."

"Same. What's your name?" Carlota asked, also getting out her seat. "I'm Carlota."

"Carol."


Not promising regular updates, but I'll try to update every Monday and Friday like before. Because like I said, it's not the best, but it's my guilty pleasure. And hopefully, someone else will at least get some enjoyment out of it. Have a good day.

Till next time-Star.

Edit: Changed it so lines indicate prescriptive changing.
