So, Leonard Loud is here, and this will complicate some things because no one was even told about his arrival and they need to talk to him about some stuff too. But mostly, we need to be ready for some friends they know coming to Royal Woods when tomorrow's chapter comes. Enjoy reading this guys.

Family of Two.
Chapter 642: Gramps is here, huh.

(October 22. The Loud House, Royal Woods Michigan.)

A usual morning for breakfast, and all the Louds are enjoying their food, and s they all silently enjoy their food, Leslie speaks. "So, are you two gonna go and talk to Gramps?"

The others recall, Leonard Loud showed up the other day, which they didn't see coming. The elderly loud explains why he is there, and he also plans to stay till the end of the month, something they really wish they were told through a call, but he didn't because he lost his phone from a salmon, and that salmon lost the phone and it is somewhere in the lake now.

Leonard Loud is living at Tall Timbers Park, and Michelle managed to reason with Mayor Davis, but he has to follow the rules of that lake and the Park or they will kick him out and have his boat taken away, they gave him a book on the rules, and they are hoping he does read them, and yeah he is living in his boat in the middle of the lake.

Luna nods. "We're gonna meet with him later, I just hope he hasn't done anything stupid while he was there. He is a seaman after all, and one could only imagine what an old guy on a boat in the middle of a lake with some new wildlife could do."

They were all concerned, and then Michelle remembers something. "Oh right, guys I got a call that we can be able to bring the three girls from Scotland, here to our country but only for the week!"

This does surprise them. They need to tell Jordan about this, they're all about to get some friendly company. Harriet hears this and she smiles, she is glad that they are gonna have some good friends coming to their home, but then she realizes.

'Wait, should the three girls come here, where will they be staying?'

(Tall Timbers Park.)

The Park is looking as it normally is, and the local dinosaurs and Pokémon are just going about their business, but they are surprised to see something in the middle of Tall Timbers Lake, a boat and it is lowly making its way to the small docks, where Lincoln and Luna are waiting for him.

The boat arrives, and then Leonard comes out. "Hey there fam. Wait, where are the others?"

Lincoln then explains. "They all have plans for the day. Lola and Lana are spending some time with their friends at Ketcham Park. Lisa and Lucy are with their families at Dairyland, Lori, Leni and Luan are at work, Michelle is at work and helping the mayor with the upcoming Halloween party, while Delilah and Leslie went off to do some training alongside Adelaide Chang. They all have their own thing goin on, and we can't bother with them."

Leonard does feel disappointed to hear this. "Oh, okay then. Well, how about I go and visit them and then we can all have some fun?"

Luna saw this one coming. "Hold up, wait a minute and back it up, Gramps. No can do. The one thing we need, is you going to their events and other stuff they have planned, and making it a tad bit awkward, I mean we don't wanna legit ruin their day. We dealt with helping you with the whole Camp Mastodon thing, and we are happy it's still going, but you are not meddling with the others."

Leonard is baffled to hear this. "What? What do you mean? I'm not meddling? I just wanna..."

"Spend some time with us, we know gramps" replied Lincoln. "You already had fun with them the other day during the Festival, but now they wanna do their own thing. They will spend time with you, and since you are staying here for the week, it is best you spend time with them some other day, alright?"

Leonard didn't like hearing this because he wanted to go and see the others. "Okay fine, at least you guys are here. So, wanna go and do something in this lake? Also, these dinosaurs are a bit too much?"

"Ahem!" Dr. Mae Turner walks by them with Bumpy. "Saying that is just as saying how someone doesn't like the modern day animals, and also these guys chose to stay here. Saying that means you don't want them here, and I can talk to those who are above me to talk back to you."

Luna then speaks. "Dr. Mae Turner is right, Gramps. Do not, and I mean it, do not start something with these large reptiles. Some are water based, and like the lake, and if you do anything to harm them then they will fight back, and if you bother one of the long necks in the lake, well... We can't guarantee that we can help you recover what's left of your boat."

Leonard is surprised to hear this. "Alright, alright. Hey, you guys want something to eat? Look what I caught in the lake?" He shows them the large bucket, and inside is a... Magikarp?!

Magikarp.
The Fish Pokémon. Water Type.
In the distant past, it was somewhat stronger than the horribly weak descendants that exist today. Famous for being very unreliable. It can be found swimming in seas, lakes, rivers and shallow puddles. Whoever its opponent, and however horrible the attack it receives, all it does is Splash around. An underpowered, pathetic Pokémon. It may jump high on rare occasions, but never more than seven feet. For no reason, it jumps and splashes about, making it easy for predators like Pidgeotto to catch it mid-jump.

Magikarp is a pathetic excuse for a Pokémon that is only capable of flopping and splashing. This behavior prompted scientists to undertake research into it. Magikarp is virtually useless in battle as it can only splash around. As a result, it is considered to be weak. However, it is actually a very hardy Pokémon that can survive in any body of water no matter how polluted it is. Its swimming muscles are weak, so it is easily washed away by currents. In places where water pools, you can see many Magikarp deposited there by the flow.

With proper training, this little useless Pokémon can become something awesome and worth the partnership, but if you dare to mock, or call it useless, and then abandon it... Then be ready for your death bed, this little guy evolves into Gyarados.

Lincoln and Luna are alarmed seeing this. "I have been trying to break this guy open, but he sure is tough and I already lost a lot of sharp objects. Even my harpoon shattered. You guys think you can help me break her open so we can cook it?"

This alarms Magikarp, but then Lincoln takes the bucket. "Hey! Linc, you don't have to take it from me, just ask and..."

Lincoln carries the panicking Magikarp and he brings the little guy to the shallows. He then tries to calm it down. "Hey, hey. Hey there, little guy. Calm down now. Calm..." the Magikarp no longer panics, and then it looks to the white-haired boy and this makes Lincoln smile. "Hey now, nothing to be afraid. You're not gonna get eaten, I can promise you that. Swim along now, and avoid getting washed up."

The Magikarp then swims off, and Leonard is shocked. "What the heck are you doing kiddo? That could've been..."

"You're death!" yelled Lincoln. "That was not a fish that was a Pokémon!"

Leonard is confused. "What? But I thought those things were supposed to be like you're..."

"There are wild Pokémon's dude!" yelled Luna in anger. "They don't always have to be tamed or as pets, and they choose who they seek as a partner, and there are different types and that fish was a Magikarp, an armoured little fish that shouldn't be mistreated as food or called useless, that thing will kill you!"

Leonard scoffs. "Oh come now, that's just a bluff. I doubt that little guy could..."

Lincoln explains. "Gramps, Magikarp evolves into Gyarados if you threaten to harm it, and Gyarados is a large sea dragon Pokémon that can lay down a ton of damage despite being categorized as a water type but can still inflict dragon type moves and attacks and have been known to sink ships, and this lake doesn't need one or else he will destroy everything by summoning a monsoon!"

"The many water-type Pokémon reside alongside the local fish life here, and the folks in town have learned to adapt and evade catching the water-type Pokémon and just go with the usual water life when the fishing season is on. What you just did is a violation to the rules, you could've ended up being responsible for the destruction of this Park, and the lake. Also, Gyarados will eat you."

Luna then shows him the image, and this shocks Leonard, and he sees Magikarp looking at him sternly before diving back into the lake. "Kids, I didn't know. I just... I'm sorry, I didn't even..."

"Didn't even know?!" Luna is pissed off, and this gets the attention from someone who goes over to them. "Dude, the mayor have you a book on the new rules and regulations of this lake! It has everything needed to know when it comes to the local new wildlife..." she then realizes it. "You lost the book, didn't you?"

Leonard Loud chuckles nervously. "I may have accidentally lost it when I was reading near the edge of the boat, and it's in the bottom of the..." The book is spit at him and is wet, and they see a very pissed off Magikarp. Lincoln calls out.

"Thank you!" the Magikarp then leaps into the air and then back into the water, and then Lincoln looks towards the elderly Loud. "Pop-pop managed to adapt and change after everything here, you managed to change after we helped you with Camp Mastodon, and yet for some reason you just... Ugh, this is pointless!" Dartrix lands on his head, and also looks to Leonard angrily, and so do a lot of water-type Pokémon, and a... Feraligatr, and some Totodile. Then Mayor Davis shows up, and this startles Leonard Loud.

"Oh, madam mayor... I was just, ummm..."

"Two chances left, Mr. Loud" replied Mayor Davis in a stern tone. "I will give you another book, and I expect you to at least not commit anything from breaking the rules here, and also the fishing season will be over at the end of the month. My watery friends here will be keeping a close eye on you." she means the Feraligatr and Totodile, they are actually friends with the mayor. She then takes her leave.

Then someone snaps a photo of the old man. Amanda Bright. "Permission to use this as a scoop news for the Royal Woods Gazette and my blog?"

Luna and Lincoln look to Amanda and nod, and she heads off to make this story be heard, and warned. Lincoln and Luna take their leave, but then Luna sees her son head back to the lake, but to the shallow waters and he interacts with the Magikarp there, and they seem to be becoming good friends. This makes Luna happy, but then she realizes where this could lead.

Leonard Loud sighs and he goes back into his boat and he thinks about this. 'Dang it, what have I done? I just wanna spend some time with the kids, this new change... I gotta try and adapt to it, or else I might not be here for less than three days. I gotta try harder!'

To be continued in the next chapter everyone.

A/N: Leonard Loud is gonna be here for a while, possibly. But tomorrow, we got three girls who will be coming to town soon, this is gonna be great! I hope that you all enjoyed reading this new chapter guys.
