Author's Note: Any suggestions on what kind of Lori Clones I could put in the Citadel? Please write it down in the review. Also, Question: How would a Citadel of Lenis go down?
At a cloning station, Lori #14 and #16 entered, surprised to see 1999 17 year old Loris, all dressed up in their Uniforms, all lined up in rows.
"Where to next?" The newer clones stated.
"You know, one of the Loris said that the previous batch of Lori Clones were all dressed up and ready to go. Why is that?" Lori #14 asks.
"These are Soldier Lori clones." Lori #16 said, equally confused.
Suddenly, the contractor vibrated, and Lori #16 responded, seeing a map pointing at a facility.
"Soldier Lori clones report at training facility." The contactor said.
"Why?" Lori #14 stated.
"For training for self defense and Citadel Security." The contactor said, insistingly.
"What do you mean? The Citadel doesn't need security from others!" Lori #16 asks, shrugging.
"You'll see soon enough." The Loris in uniforms said, marching out of the room.
"What's the training facility for?" Lori #16 asks.
"To prepare other Lori clones for Planetary base defenses."
"What?"
"The Citadel needs bases on other worlds. For Loris to study other dangers across the cosmos. Now come with us and we'll show you what you mean."
At a cloning station, Loris #50 and #100 are walking into the place, only to see all 1999 Lori clones, each in a 2-Piece Swimsuit, unconscious in their tubes, much to their confusion, they should be out of their cloning tubes by now.
Curious, Lori #50 went over to the computer and turns on the screen, which shows a loading screen saying "High Intelligence download: 97% complete."
"High Intelligence Download?" Lori #50 asks, confused. "What for?"
"To help with interdimensional travel." The Computer replied. "Alongside with other technology on the Citadel."
Suddenly, the download is complete, and the tubes released the clones, and they fell to the ground, coughing out Liquid as they got up.
Lori #50 said, "Are you Okay?"
"We're fine." The Smart Lori clones replied. Lori #100 looked into the closet, and saw light blue labcoats, black slacks and black boots.
"So, where are your uniforms?" Lori #100 asks.
"Those are our uniforms." Smart Lori #1 said, walking over to the outfit, putting it on. "We're scientists for the Citadel."
"Where's your Lab?" Lori #50 asks, scratching her head.
"As soon as we're dressed, we shall accompany you there." Two Smart Loris said as they all got dressed. "Show you around the Lab, while we work out a way to create interdimensional travel."
"What's the point of that?" Lori #100 asks.
"Well, to see if there are other Citadels that are willing to collaborate with us and join us." Smart Lori #31 said, walking to a drawer, finding 1999 pairs of glasses.
"Citadels of Loris?" Lori #50 asks. "With that many Loris, it could be enough to fill 2 Planets."
"No, Citadel of other people. Citadel of Lenis, Citadel of Lunas, Citadel of Luans, Citadel of Lynn Juniors, Citadel of Lincolns, Citadel of Lucys, Citadel of Lolas and Lanas, Citadel of Lisas, Citadel of Casegrande Kids, Citadel of Sam Sharps, and it goes on." Smart Lori #99 said as she, alongside with other smart Loris, put on her glasses.
"But what about the seemingly endless cloning process?" Lori #100 asks.
"We'll cross that bridge when we come to it." Smart Lori #91 said, adjusting her glasses. "But what we're looking at if that place comes in to play, is a possible solar system of us on different planets."
"Now come along, we'll show you the Laboratory." Smart Lori #1 said as they left the room and entered the Laboratory, where various machines and chemicals await experimentation.
"So what is your first Invention going to be?" Lori #50 asks as several Smart Loris took out science equation books.
"An interdimensional communicator. To communicate with other interdimensional beings." Smart Lori #91 said.
"Next, a speed boosting fuel that will get us to the center of the Multiverse faster than a speeding bullet hopefully." Smart Lori #1 said, turning a page in her book.
"And finally, well...science doesn't have a limit." Smart Lori #29 joked, chuckling.
"Of course it doesn't." Lori #50 said, annoyed.
"You mind if we go check out the other clones?" Lori #100 asks.
The Smart Lori clones chattered in agreement that they don't mind if the two left.
Loris #14 and 16 and the new Lori Clones that were with them arrived at the training facility, which consisted of several obstacle courses and such.
"So what's this for?" Lori #14 asks.
"This is where we prepare for missions on different worlds." Soldier Lori #92 said.
"So why go on different places in the Cosmos?" Lori #16 asks.
"To get resources to help the Citadel's technology that is being made by Scientist Loris at our Lab. And we have to be prepared for the worst situations." Soldier Lori #1992 said.
"Is that necessary?"
"Vital."
"What else is out in the Cosmos?" Lori #14 said, mockingly. "A bunch of other Citadels of Lori's bullies?"
Loris #14 and #16 laughed.
"Close, but incorrect." Contatctor replied, getting the girls to stop laughing. "There are multiverses were countless Ricks that might've been in the same scenarios for life on different citadels during the COVID-19 Outbreak in alternate realities. But it played out differently for them. So when we get to our destination, the center of the Multiverse, there could be Citadels of Lenis, Lunas, Luans, Lynn Juniors, Lincolns, Lucys, Lolas, Lanas, maybe Lisas waiting for us. Even Citadels of Casagrande Kids, Citadels of Sam Sharps, Carol Pinegreys are possible. As for Lillith, or as the Loud parents say, Lily, she's just a baby. Too young."
"Who's Leni, Luna, Luan, Lynn Junior, Lincoln, Lucy, Lola, Lana, Lisa and Lily?" Lori #16 asks.
"In many worlds,they are the Prime Lori's siblings. Lori is the oldest out of them." Contactor replied.
"Perhaps we could learn more about Prime Lori's family?" Lori #14 said, curious.
"Perhaps, once Nightfall begins." Contactor said. "Now, you must leave the Soldiers to their training."
Lori #14 and 16 shrugged and left.
The two Loris found tons of Loris getting accustomed to their places on the citadel. Well...except for Lori #36, who was getting really irritated with all the Nerdy 12-year old Lori Clones. By now, it's a miracle she didn't try to kill them. The Nerdy Lori clones wore an outfit too. A White shirt and white legging tights with a light blue leather jacket, in addition to white boots, black gloves, and matching epaulets on their jackets.
"Uh..." Lori #14 and 16 ask.
"Please. Do. Not. Ask." Lori #36 said, gritting her teeth. "Let's just get these girls to the child base and go on with our lives.
After minutes of looking for a place to settle down, Lori #2 found herself in a base for the younger Loris, which looks like an indoor playground for little kids as the younger Loris get acquainted with one another.
Young Lori #1999 was looking for board games to play with the other Younger Loris, and the possibilities were endless. But suddenly, Young Lori #194 grabbed something in the closet, a stuffed bear, and when she pulled it out, out came tumbling a bunch of other stuffed animals, toppling her and a few other clones. They got out of the pile of stuffed animals and laughed playfully.
"So, which one should we play with?" Young Lori #1942 asks.
"Why don't we ask Mr. Bear to play Candy Land with us?" Young Lori #1502 said, happily.
Suddenly, Lori #14, Lori #16 and Lori #36 arrived with the Nerdy Lori Clones, gaining the attention of the younger Loris.
"Hi, wanna play with us?" Young Loris ask.
"Really?" Nerdy Loris happily replied, the child Lori clones replied with a nod.
"I'm sure we can find some thing here." A Young Lori said, walking over to a button that says "Open Ball Pit". She presses the button, and the ground opens, alarming the Young Lori Clones as they saw something exciting, a ball pit. Excited, the younger versions of Loris squealed and laughed in delight, jumping in and having fun in the ball pit with the nerdy Loris.
As Lori #12 chuckled at this, a worried Lori #2 went up to Lori #12, walking with her to a bedroom. This piqued Lori #14 and 16's attentions.
They fallowed them into the bedroom.
"What's going on?" Lori #14 asks, curious.
"We need to talk about the Real Lori." Lori #2 said.
"What about her?" Lori #12 said, surprised.
"She used to be a controlling jerk! I don't want the other Lori clones to end up like that." Lori #2 said, annoyed.
"What?" Lori #12 said, skeptically.
"Controlling jerk, how?" Lori #16 asks.
"Lori always tried to use her age as an excuse to get her way, she always ordered everyone around, and she threatened to turn her siblings into human pretzels!" Lori #2 said, angrily. "We can't let these Loris learn about who they once were, if we do, they might end up exactly like her!"
"That's ridiculous. they're just Little kids." Lori #12, giggling.
"Yeah, I fail to see how this will work out like that for them." Lori #14 said, confused.
"I don't see that happening any time soon." Lori #16 said, confident.
"You know what I mean!" Lori #2 said. "I am not letting other Loris grow up to 17 just to behave like the original. Especially when they can do better than this!"
"So what? They can learn from her mistakes." Lori #12 said, then she pointed out in the playing room where all the younger Loris are playing with each other.
Lori #16 said, "And besides, they'll have long ways to go before it should be a concern."
"But things can develop at an early age!" Lori #2 said, grabbing her double by the coat in anger. "We have to put Lori in a good light and leave out the bad stuff."
"That's a bad idea." Lori #12 said, concerned. "If we do that, they're inevitably going to find out about Lori's behavior. And it will blow up in their faces badly."
"Fine, then I'll have to talk to the Council of Loris, again." Lori #2 said, sternly as she walks away. "Maybe they'll do something about it!"
"I'm not sure if that's smart." Lori #14 said, stopping her. "You shouldn't give people false hope."
"Even if it was False Hope, it's better than no hope at all!" Lori #2 said, annoyed.
"Look at those younger Lori clones," Lori #12 said, pointing to them with joy. "They're happy, do you really want to take that away from them?"
Lori #2 noticed the Lori child clones playing with one another, and she noticed how happy they were, and how much playful energy they had, Lori #2 would feel like a total bitch if she took that away.
"No, but what if they do find out about the Original Lori?!" Lori #2 said, regretfully.
"We'll help them get through it." Lori #12 said, reassuringly.
"Why don't you go get some rest. You're overthinking things." Lori #14 said.
Lori #2 started to get relieved, maybe she's just being paranoid.
"In fact, why don't you play with us?" Child Lori #19 and Nerdy Lori #15 said, happily.
"Maybe that will take my mind off of things." Lori #2 said, rubbing her neck. "What did you have in mind?"
"Maybe hide and seek?" All the child Loris laughed as they went to seperate places, prompting Lori #2 to try to find them alongside with Lori #12, #14 and 16, who decided to join in on the fun.
