And now it is time that we get into the more interesting part of the story. Not only will this be climatic, but it also includes other characters as well. While the previous chapters have included characters from The Loud House and OK KO Let's Be Heroes, this one will explore other worlds within their multiverse.

Also, if some of you haven't read some of my previous fanfic stories, there's gonna be a few references to them throughout this story. Feel free to check those out if you ever have time, but you can still enjoy this story even if you hadn't read the others.

So without further ado, here we go

Location: Tremorton

In a secret underground laboratory, two boys named Brad and Tuck were watching over monitors for signs of alien invasions.

"I'm bored Tuck," Brad said. "B-O-R-E-D bored. Why did we take shifts looking over the space monitors? Because we wanted to see space aliens! And what have we seen so far? Nothing! Nothing! N-O-T…...Aw you know. Nothing."

However, Tuck was busy staring at the screen, looking worried. "B-b-Brad…"

"'Watch the screen' they said, 'keep your eyes on the screen' they said. So we watched the screen for three straight days! And what did we see? Nothing!"

"...Brad…"

"And then there's this light. 'If this light ever flashes, something from space is coming towards earth. Alert XJ9 immediately!'"

"...Brad!"

"Pfft! Like that would ever happen. I tell you little bro, this is the most boring job on the planet. I wonder if I could get my old job back at Mr Mesmer's." Brad then noticed the expression on his brother's face. "What?" Tuck points to the screen and Brad saw what was going on. "Oh. We actually do have one."

Tuck started to panic. "Oh my jeez! What do we do! No one ever told us what to do! The only reason why I took this opportunity is because I didn't have to do anything!"

"Tuck! Stop it! I'm calculating it's impact point." The computer began displaying the location. "It looks like….Royal Woods, Michigan."

"Royal Woods?! That's the same town where Lincoln and his sisters live!"

"Relax! We'll just contact Jenny to take care of it. She's dealt with this kind of business before."

Brad made a phone call to a certain house. The call was sent to the home of Nora Wakeman. Once she received the call, she went right upstairs to a certain room. The room of her robotic teenage daughter.

"XJ9! Excuse me, XJ9!"

"Yeah mom?" The robot girl woke up, accidentally knocking her mother to the floor. She then saw on one of her monitors that an alien invasion was heading towards Royal Woods. "No time now mom. Duty calls."

"I've fallen and I can't get up."

The robot girl opened up the window and blasted off to Royal Woods.

Back at the Loud House, Clyde went into Lincoln's room as soon as the parents and sisters were gone.

"Dendy?"

Dendy arose from the bed. "Greetings Clyde."

"I gotta hand it to you," Clyde admired. "That Lincoln imitation was pretty dead on. I can't believe that actually worked."

"I must say, that was a well thought out plan if I do say so myself."

"Yeah." Clyde then began thinking about his best friend. "I bet Lincoln's having fun. More fun than me anyway. Maybe we should go down there. Just to make sure he's doing okay."

"That would be good."

Clyde activates the inflatable slide outside Lincoln's window, and the two slid down and ran off.

"I sure hope Lincoln's doing okay," the father exclaimed.

"He did seem pretty upset," his wife replies. "But what can we do? You heard Clyde. Lincoln needs to do things independently."

"I know. But maybe we should do something to cheer him up."

"He has been hinted about a new comic book that just hit the stores. Maybe we could find him one to surprise him."

"It's worth a try."

Both parents got out of bed and headed out in the van.

Meanwhile later that night, Lincoln arrived at the arcade.

Ronnie Anne was there waiting. "Well, well, well. Lame-o Loud made it after all."

"Are you kidding? I wouldn't miss this night for anything!" Lincoln exclaims. "Did any other kids sneak out?"

"Everyone else is already inside. You better get moving if you want your share in the spotlight."

"What spotlight?"

"You know what I'm talking about. You better get in there."

"Right. See ya inside." Lincoln was inside the arcade and was very intrigued by what he witnessed. "Whoa! This is amazing!"

"It is quite impressive." Lincoln turned and saw two of his friends.

"Clyde! Dendy! What are you doing here?"

"I came to see how you were doing," Clyde answers.

"And I followed," answered Dendy. "Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to find a friend of my own."

Dendy left the two boys behind.

"Clyde, look at these games," Lincoln says. "These are like super retro!"

"I know," Clyde agrees. "Pac Man, Centipede, Asteroids, E.T., Super Mario, Super Smash Bros? Why are these even here?!"

"Who cares? Let's just play!"

"Lincoln, we can't! What if your parents or your sisters find out you're gone?"

"Clyde, I told you. It's taken care of."

"Still, even if I wanted to play, we don't even have any quarters."

"Ah, that's where you're wrong." Lincoln pulls out a jumbo jar of quarters from behind. "Took me 5 years to save, but it was worth it." Lincoln places the quarter into the machine and began button mashing.

"Link, you're not even doing it right. You're just mashing the buttons."

"Whatever. Why don't you just go home if you're so worried?"

"I know. How about I show you how it's done?" Clyde took over and did it with more ease. And surprise surprise, he actually did better than Lincoln.

Lincoln scoffs. "Beginners luck."

"Luck ain't got nothing to do with it."

Later, both Lincoln and Clyde began playing more games. Clyde won most of them with ease, while Lincoln was just button mashing.

"Oh! Ten in a row!"

Lincoln was stunned. "How'd you do it? How do you beat the system?"

"It's all about patterns buddy. You just gotta know the point of the game."

"Wow, that's pretty cool Clyde." The boys turned and saw a familiar gigantic-headed blue bird.

Lincoln immediately recognized who it was. "Hey Harvey. What brings you here?"

"Oh. Fee and Foo convinced me to come here. I got a little bored so I figured, why not?"

"You play video games?" Clyde asked.

"Well I wouldn't say that. We don't exactly have any arcades back in Littlebark, but who could resist a fun time?"

"Down with that featherhead," Lincoln said.

Maybe you guys could help me out over here. See, there's this game I'm sorta having trouble with."

"Which game is it?"

Harvey shows them the game RoadBlasters. While playing it, Harvey kept crashing into obstacles.

"How does this keep happening?" Harvey asked.

"Oh it's no big deal," Clyde explains. "You just crashed into another obstacle. That's minus 20 more points."

"How many points does that leave me with?"

"Negative 224."

"How many more minutes left in the game?"

"The game is over," Lincoln states.

"That's enough time. I can make up those points." Harvey puts in two more quarters into the machine and takes another go. He did better than the last time, until the finish line where he hit another obstacle. "Alright! What's my final score?"

"Six," Lincoln answered.

"Whooo! And how many do I need to beat the high score?"

"Six."

"Wooooooooooooooo….."

"Hundred."

"What?"

"Six hundred. You need six hundred to win. You got six."

"Oh. Oh well. That was fun anyway. See ya." Harvey walked off.

"Lincoln, I really think we should be heading back to your house."

Clyde tried pulling him away, Lincoln recognized someone else not too far away. "Hold on a minute Clyde."

The young person was none other than K.O., who was trying out one of the other games, but ended up failing. "Aw! Whipply-dip-dipple!"

"K.O.?"

K.O. turns to see one of his old friends approaching. "Lincoln?"

"What are you doing here?" Lincoln asked.

"I had a little help from Dendy," K.O. answered. "When I heard about the tournament, I couldn't resist. So my mom let me come."

"I wish my parents were that cool," Lincoln complained.

"Uh, Lincoln? Care to fill me in?" Clyde asked.

"Oh, sorry. KO's an old friend of mine. Part of that long story I mentioned. I'll tell you later."

"I see."

"I even have his pow card!" K.O. shows them Lincoln's pow card from the previous adventure.

Clyde took a closer look. "You're on a trading card? Man, they sure don't tell us anything anymore."

Just then someone else came up. This kid was short with a pink hat, brown shaggy hair and two buck teeth.

Lincoln didn't look so amused to see him. "Timmy Turner."

"Well, well, well. If it isn't Lincoln Loud," Timmy gloated. "Whatcha been up to? Dealing with chaotic sisters I guess?"

"You've got some nerve showing up here Turner!"

"Hey, don't blame me because I'm just checking out the competition. And by the looks of it, I already know who the losers might be."

"Are you calling us losers?"

K.O. was stunned. "I…..What? Did he? Did you?"

"He's calling us losers. Look Turner, I'll have you know that I've been playing video games for longer than you have. And I've also grown up with a sister who knows how to handle a competition."

"Well then why say it?" Timmy mocks. "I'm mean if you really think you can just win that easily, you should just prove it face to face. Oh, but that's right. You're not in the tournament."

"And I suppose you're in the tournament?"

"That's right I am. Perhaps you should join in too. If you think you're good enough."

This got on Lincoln's last nerve. "You know what beaver boy? Time to put you in your place. I'll be in that tournament, and I'm gonna kick your virtual butt!"

"Fine. See you at the championship stand. And If you lose, which I know you will, it'll just prove to everyone what a pathetic wuss you really are." Timmy walks away, and Lincoln was still annoyed.

"What's that kid's deal?" K.O. asked.

"That was Timmy Turner," Lincoln answered. "He acts super macho, but he's really just an average kid who no one understands."

"Oh. Well then why did he tease you?"

"He just does that to get under your skin," Clyde answers. "It makes him feel better about himself. It may be annoying, but it's best to ignore it."

"You know where I come from, we call that getting zinged."

"Well zing or no zing, I'm gonna put that Timmy Turner back in his place." Lincoln marched away.

"Lincoln, I never thought I'd say it at a time like this," Clyde said. "But you have my support."

"That goes for me too," K.O. said.

"Thanks guys."

During a brief montage, Lincoln began training for the tournament. Minute after minute, hour after hour. And after a while, it came down to the final event.

The announcer stepped forward. "And now it's time for the final round. Whoever wins this will be crowned the new video game champion of the world! In this corner, we have the undefeated champion, Timmy Turner!"

Timmy enters from the right of the stage.

"And in the other corner, we have the runner up, Lincoln Loud!"

The two boys glare at each other.

"Well I gotta say Loud," Timmy mocks. "I'm surprised your fingers can even find the start button."

"Save it for the loser circle Turner," Lincoln glares. "My fingers happen to be in the best shape of their lives." Right as he says that, his thumbs made a cracking sound when he moved them.

"I'll alert the paramedics."

"Get ready to battle!" The announcer declares.

The final game was Donkey Kong. The boys pressed the start buttons and the games began. Once they started, they began battling like there was no tomorrow. Many minutes passed by and at the very end, what appeared to be a close game, was ultimately the final result.

After the game was over, Timmy turned to Lincoln. "Well, congratulations."

Lincoln looks confused for a second.

"...on coming in second!"

Everyone cheered for the Turner kid, while Lincoln just stepped down looking discouraged.

K.O. and Clyde tried to cheer him up.

"Aw don't worry about it Lincoln," K.O. assures. "You did your best."

"Yeah, but I lost!" Lincoln griped. "I lost the game, I lost the tournament and most of all, I lost my pride."

"It could have happened to anyone."

"Yeah," Clyde agrees. "Besides, we can still make the best of tonight."

"How?" Lincoln asked.

"Don't you remember? There's games you play for fun, and there's games to play for the prizes."

"So?"

"So why not try those? We could probably find something that your sisters might like."

"Yeah, I guess we could."

"Come on Lincoln!" K.O. convinces.

"Well…..okay. Why not?"

So later that night, Lincoln, Clyde and K.O. began playing more games. Winning tickets for prizes as well as finding some things in the claw machine.

Afterwards, they all met up at a table to take a look at what they got.

"Okay, let's see here." Lincoln looks in his bag. "I have a unicorn plushie, a rubber lizard and cell phone case. How'd you guys do?"

Clyde looks in his bag. "I've got a ukulele, a self inflating whoopee cushion and a teddy bear."

Finally was K.O. "I got a few hair clips, a football, a writing pen with a bat on it and a textbook on calculus fundamentals. Though I don't know why they would give away that last thing."

"That's great!" Lincoln says. "Now we can all head home. We just need to make sure that my sisters don't find out about tonight. Or if that doesn't work, I could just give them these so none of them say a word. Not that I'd need to."

"Are you sure that's a smart idea Lincoln?" Clyde asked.

"Clyde, will you stop worrying? It's 11:45. They're always asleep before then on school nights. By the time I get home, they won't even know I'm gone."

In Lori and Leni's room, the two sisters were thinking about what Lincoln had said.

"Hey, Leni?"

"Yeah Lori?"

"You worried about Lincoln?"

"A little. Do you think that what he said was true?"

"I don't know. Maybe he's right. Maybe we do meddle too much."

"Well we did make him kiss Ronnie Anne. And they became good friends."

"Yeah, but she also gave him a punch to the eye. Remember what he said afterwards?"

"You mean every time we butt into his life, we make things worse?"

"Bingo."

"Come on Lori, I'm sure it's not that bad. So we're not perfect, but we are his family."

Just then, they heard a clunking coming from downstairs.

"Is there someone in the kitchen?" Lori wonders.

"Our kitchen?" Leni asked. "I didn't hear anything."

Lori points to the door, meaning she wanted her to go down and check. Leni got out of her bed and headed out the door.

In the hallway, Leni saw Lisa come out of her bedroom.

"Leni? What are you doing up so late?"

"Lori thought she heard something downstairs, so I was gonna check it out."

"In that case, allow me to be the judge of that."

Lisa drowsily follows Leni downstairs to see what was going on. Along the way, they noticed a bright orange light coming from the kitchen.

"Did someone leave the orange light on?" Leni asked.

"That's preposterous," Lisa claims. "Why would we have an orange light in our kitchen?"

"You never know."

The two girls made their way towards the kitchen.

"Lincoln? Is that you?"

"I see what's going on here," Lisa said. Unfortunately though, it was hard for her to see anything. "Actually I don't. My glasses are all fogged." Lisa took her glasses off and rubbed the lenses against her nightshirt. Once she could see more clearly, what she saw was a little orange ghost with two eyes.

"O-M-Gosh!" Leni shrieked. "This is so cute! Aw, it's okay. Are you lost little guy? Don't worry, we're not gonna hurt you."

But right as Leni touches the little ghost, a really bright light engulfed the kitchen. The girls' bodies were slowly turning into pixels and floating away.

"Leni?" Lori heard all the commotion and went down to the kitchen to check it out. "Leni? Are you alright? Leni?"

But right as she entered the kitchen, she began to disappear too as she screamed.

Outside the Loud house, the light appeared to be coming from a tractor beam coming from a giant spaceship. As fast as they could, the girls immediately ran out of their bedrooms. But as soon as they did, they all started to disappear too.

All 10 of the girls (including Lily) got beamed up into the spaceship as the hatch closes. Once they were gone, the ship blasted off into space.
