Chapter 312

(The Loud House.)

Lincoln waits by Luna's car and soon enough, his big sister comes out of the house. "Alright bro, let's go and get Jordan, Sam and you're friends Mollie and Sadie and give them a hack of a triple date." Luna then locks the door behind her and then she checks if the keys are in the rose bushes.

"Sure wish Ronnie Anne and Sid were here, they could also use some same gender romance advice, and not just from you two" replied Lincoln. He then sees Bullet in the sky. "No offense sis, I mean you and Sam have been dating longer than them."

"It's all good bro, and I get it. Having two gals who like each other and are the same age as Santiago and Chang is a good thing too" replied Luna. "Also, Bullet will be keeping an eye on us, while the other eagles show their kids he sights of the woods and some more pointers on hunting."

They're both about to get into Luna's car, but then someone arrives, a van and other media vans come and they see the logo on the side. A logo that Lincoln knows. "Oh no."

"Bro, is that the weird ghost hunting guys that you watch?" asked Luna. No she does not mean Ghost Labs.

Lincoln sighs. "Well, this can't be good."

Then the main van opens and coming out is the man who is the star of the whole gig, he then let's the camera point to him and the Loud House. "Hey there young ghost watchers! This is Hunter Spector and you're watching ARGGH! and today we're gonna be investigating the Royal Woods ghost of ghosts, and it's said to reside within the home of a big family!"

Lincoln and Luna sigh. "This is not gonna end well for anyone" said Lincoln.

Then Clyde arrives, on his bike and a bit exhausted. "Linc ….. Linc ….. Lincoln. The …. Oh, never mind they're here."

"I could only guess you tried to contact us about this when you saw them coming here right?" asked Luna. "Also, how the heck did they know where we live?"

"That's the big issue, they came into the neighborhood and asked my dad's and they pointed out to them where you guys live and I tried to warn you guys, but I couldn't find my phone. I think one of my cats has my phone and is using it for selfies, again" replied Clyde. "Sorry guys."

"It's okay Clyde, we'll handle this." Lincoln looks to Luna and both of them nod, Luna then sends a text message to the others louds and the Ghost Labs Team who aren't too far from Royal Woods. Where is everyone and why is it just Lincoln and Luna?

Lori and Leni are hanging out with Jessica and they're gal pals in the mall, with some help from Michelle Lewis. Rita, Lisa and Lily are helping Lynn Sr at the restaurant. Luan, is at a birthday gig with Benny, Zach and Giggles. Lynn Jr is getting ready for the big summer roller derby finals which is on August 31st. Lana and Lola are having a playdate with their friend from school and Lucy is at the cemetery with the Ghost Labs crew alongside the Young Morticians Club, a ghost is there and they need to know why it's not at rest.

Luna and Lincoln also send a message to Sam, Jordan, Mollie and Sadie, that they got trouble at the Loud House. They then put their phones away. "Okay, so this is not gonna be a good day for any of us" said Lincoln,

Hunter Spector then goes over to Lincoln and Luna and then he faces the camera. "I'm here with Eagle champ Lincoln Loud and band leader of the tour Luna Loud, and some random kid on a bike!" Clyde is confused why he called him that.

"So tell us, about this ghost. Has it done any trouble in this house at all?" asked Hunter Spector.

Lincoln crosses his arms. "No."

"Huh, okay so is it a spirit that needs to rest because it's been causing some slight mishaps?"

Luna sighs and shakes her head. "No."

The camera crew look to each other and so does the shows manager. Hunter then asks them again. "Is this ghost a malevolent apparition that has been spooking around the place and showing signs of maybe some aggression?"

"Dude, what the heck is wrong with you?" asked Lincoln. "This is like the same question, but just differently. The ghost in our house is not bad, she's been keeping an eye on us for a long, long time and she doesn't do anything harmful, unless it's someone who would harm the family."

"How do you know that kid? I doubt you're a ghost hunter" said Hunter Spector.

"True, I don't hunt ghosts. Because the best option is to ask what the spirits reason is to be around is and find a way around it and our Great Grandma has her own reasons why she's here and containing a ghost sounds like some kind of rip off mantra from a film back during the early 80's" replied Lincoln.

"Dude, doing that to a ghost sounds almost racist in nature. They were once people and they still have a part of them inside which what makes them still sorta human, and it's also kinda mean that you would dub all ghosts evil" replied Luna. "That's just them being defensive for what they're trying to do."

"And what they're trying to do is learn to live the life they have, like what they did when they were still alive and if the people are feeling disturbed by the presence of the ghost then the best option is to talk, ,listen and figure it out" said Lincoln.

"He's right" said Clyde. "If you just keep pestering the ghost with some fake ghost gear that looks awfully like a some modified vacuum cleaner, then you're just poking a hornets nest and that hornet will linger for a long time and do more than just scare someone and that would mean you caused someone's life to be taken by something that was angry at what you did."

The camera looks to Hunter Spector who was looking nervous and his manager was not liking this. "Umm well. Can we at least go inside and see the ghost?"

"You're in unwanted territory Spector!" They heard the voice from a loud speaker and then they spot the Ghost Lab Bus, and with the car of Sam, Vanzilla, Lori and Leni' cars and a Grizzly Tank.

Brad and Barry and Lucy come out of the Ghost Labs Bus. "Hold it right there Hunter, what you're doing is not right and also down right stupid."

The Manager of Hunter Spector, Allan Veranger didn't like this, he knows the channel they work for. 'Ah shit!' He has brown hair, black suit and looks like he's in his early 50s.

"Ghost Lab guys, glad you're here. Now we can tag team and get this ghost together!" said Hunter Spector.

"Dude that is wrong on so many levels" said Barry. "And so glad we got our camera crew here as well." The camera crew come out of the bus and they have the logo of Discovery channel.

"We don't' take down ghosts, we investigate if there is a haunting or paranormal activity and if there is, then we have to figure out what the heck does it want and we know what the ghost is doing" said Brad.

Lucy then speaks. "Her name is Great Grandma Harriet, she is the mother of our grandfather Albert Willard, and this was once her house very long ago and has been watching over the Loud Family for a long, long time. She was the very same one who led us to find the old farm house that belonged to our ancestors and the ownership of the massive land around it. She only seeks to protect the family and see if they're not getting into trouble, and also deal with pesky and annoying fake ghost hunting dorks."

"Ow! Sick burn sis!" cheered Lynn Jr. She high fives with Lucy. "Heck, Lucy's been talking to Great Grandma Harriet for a long time, I was never a believer at first, but after what the Ghost Labs guys and Lincoln and the others did, heck I am dang right a believer and she is a nice ghost."

"I myself am just a woman of science, but like Lynn I have now become a full believer and I trust the paranormal apparition residing in our home and you are all trespassing and would end up payi9ng for coming here" said Lisa.

Allan Veranger then speaks up. "Look, we're just trying to do our show. So, let's us do this and we'll be on our way!"

Rita is about to speak up, but then Michelle stops her and points to the windows that are now open? They all turn around and see the windows open, and then the door slowly opens on its own and all the pets run for it.

"Well, looks like someone is angry as the fiery pits of hell" said Peter Harris. "Folks, get ready for a paranormal beat down of the most epic proportions!" He gets back into his tank. "Hit the deck!"

The Ghost Labs Teams back up and so does everyone else. Lincoln, Luna and Bullet are still near the house and just stand still.

Lincoln looks to Hunter Spector and the crew. "Go ahead, go in and make this ghosts day."

Hunter Spector then slowly walks to the house with the camera crew, all while everyone else watches and Luan hands them some popcorn.

"The gig was done when you guys called and they let us keep the large bowl of popcorn, since they made so many" replied Luan. "Sure as heck, this is gonna be a poppin' good time!"

Corey and Katie see their camera crew filming this and Barry chuckles. "Ladies and Gentlemen, let the horror fest begin!"

Lucy smiles. "This is gonna get wicked!"

Hunter Spector goes into the house and he sees the place is cleaned, but what was odd that all the furniture was facing them. All the fish in the wall bound aquarium are hiding within the corals.

Then as they walk, the furniture is slowly facing them as if they're being followed. "Okay, so now we're in the house and it seems there is so much activity in here! And ….. And a sudden chill in the air, wow! It is cold in here!"

Hunter Spector sees the AC is off, he then sees the breath from his mouth and the whole house has dropped the temperature like the Arctic. "What the heck? Why is it so cold in here?!"

Then they see the TV turn on and it keeps switching between many ghost related movies: Poltergeist, Haunted Mansion, Casper and other ghost movies that aren't even from the country, but from the whole world.

"Okay, so something very powerful is here and it also seems kinda aggressive" said Hunter Spector, he then readies his ghost containment device.

Then they hear footsteps, coming from the second floor. So, they go up there and when they arrive they see all the rooms have been open. "Looks like this might be the hotspot." then all the doors open and close at the same time and as many times as they want.

This was suddenly freaking them out. "Okay, something is wrong here! Something terribly wrong!"

Then the doors stop, and one door remains open, the door to Lucy and Lynn's room and they see a shadowy figure standing at the doorway. "Stay back!" Hunter points his device to the apparition.

The shadow spirit walks towards him and grabs the device and then looks to it. "This is the saddest thing I have ever seen and also the stupidest show I have ever known, I am so glad Lincoln stopped watching your dumb fake, racist ghost show."

Hunter and the camera crew are shocked. "Y-You're …. T-Talking!"

"Yes, yes I am and I can do so much More." the ghost shows itself to be great Grandma Harriet. "And you are trespassing on the grounds of my family and I hate those who would annoy my family!"

Harriet shows what's underneath her bangs an her eyes are solid black holes and then her mouth opens into a black gaping hole and she screams like a banshee and her hands have claws. "Run for it!" Hunter and the camera crew scramble down the stairs and the ghost hovers and follows them.

They reach the bottom of the stairs and see the door is slammed shut. "No! Let us out of here!"

On the other side, Allan Veranger sees this and goes to the door to open it and he looks to everyone else. "What are you all doing?! Help me here!"

"We'd like to, unless you're willing to stop disturbing our home and town and never come back, and also admit that the show is fake from the start. Because I can tell when the ghost is just a sheet with a rope or not" said Lincoln. Clyde looks away nervously, he was a bit spooked when he thought that was real and at least he knows it's all fake now.

The man ignores them and tries to kick the door open, but the door changes shape and into his head. "That's not very nice!" The man backs up in fear, it's his own head as the door and talking. "You wanted a real ghost for your show, so we'll give you one! Hope you got insurance!"

They then hear screams and then coming out of the window from the dining room is the camera and they see the camera crew and Hunter Spector running past the window and being chased by a shadow.

"Huh, didn't think Great Granma Harriet could be this destructive and dangerous" replied Lucy.

"Thank goodness your father isn't here, or he'd be scarred for life" replied Rita.

"I think some of us are already kinda scarred" aid Jessica. "Wow! Eagles, band tours, fighting off bad people and now a ghost in the house. You guys have one heck of a life!"

The door is then opened and Hunter Spector and his camera crew come out. "We quit!" cried the camera crew and they retreat back into the van and drive off.

Hunter tries to run, but he trips and he's dragged back into the house. "No! No! No! No! No!" His manager grabs him, and then they see the figure of the ghost looking at them and the skis turn grey and everyone else have umbrellas.

The ghost looks to them. "We do not need any more fakers, trouble makers, hooligans, delinquents, menaces, villains and other ungrateful people in this house, in this neighborhood and in this town! Now, leave! And never come back!"

She then let's go of Hunter and he and his manager fall to the ground and see the windows and door to the house close shut. "We're outta here now!" said Allan as he tries to open the vans door.

"I am so going to need a one week vacation after this!" said Hunter with tears and in fear. They both get back into the van and they drive off.

They all watch as they leave. "So long and we hope you never come back to do anything stupid again!" said Jordan. "I never really believed in their show."

They all come together and cheer for this. "Dang! That was by far the most realistic ghost attack I have ever seen!" said Brad.

"I didn't think a ghost could turn an entire house into something more than just make it haunted! Damn!" said Ashlee.

"It was like an actual horror movie, but in real life and far scary than anything I've seen" said Corey

"Looks like we got ourselves someone who might make Halloween better for us" smiled Lucy. They know what she's going to do.

"How on earth did she manage to pull all of that off?" asked Barry. "She was just some normal apparition when we saw her, how the heck man?"

Leni then recalls from a book she found from Lucy and she read it. "Well, from a book I read form Lucy once. Harriet actually made a spell book and she knows a thing or two about dabbling with magic. So, maybe she still retains the spells and magic stuff she had when she was still alive."

"Leni is not wrong, Harriet still retains her form from the living and therefore uses it to her bidding in the world of the afterlife" said Lisa. "That is similar to keeping a trait you've kept for such a long time."

"How the heck did those ghost hunting dorks literally know about the whole Ghost in the house thing?" asked Lori.

"That might be us" replied Ashlee. "When we finished with the investigation with the old farm house that belonged to you guys, we said we would tell this to the ghost investigation community, which is for those who investigate ghosts and not do some dumb hunting thing."

"From what we've know, when it comes to the show ARGGH! They always sneak someone into our community of Paranormal Investigators and get the scoop on an actual ghost just for their show. We do what we do, to show people that spirits are just like us and have trouble with passing on" replied Brad.

"It's all good guys, I don't think this was anyone's fault but the show ARGGH! At least they won't be causing any more stupid fake stuff the next time they come back, or they might stick to the fake and away from the realism" said Lincoln.

"Well, now that that's done. I think we should all go back to what we were doing" replied Rita.

They all nod and get back to what they were all doing earlier. Rita, Lisa and Lily go back to Vanzilla to go back to the restaurant, and Luan also tags along to help. Lori, Leni, Lola, Lana and Michelle head back into the house. Lucy goes back with the Ghost Labs Team to the Cemetery, Lynn hitches a ride with them to drop her off so she can continue practicing with the roller derby team and Clyde heads back home and has to tell his dad's what happened, which was also slightly their fault

"Well, we should go and pick up Mollie and Sadie, we still got time for this triple afternoon date" said Jordan.

"They are so going to be shocked at what we did today" said Sam.

"Let's hope they're not too skittish with ghost stories and stuff" said Luna.

"We should also tell this to Liam, Tabby, Artie, Trent, Lance and Zach about this. They'll be in for a big surprise about what ARGGH! almost did" replied Lincoln.

They all get into Luna and Sam's rides and drive off to go and pick up their friends Sadie and Mollie, and Bullet stays in the sky and watches over them, and he does run into Patriot and Valkyrie and they're young eagles, and he has so much to tell them about what happened.

(Huntsville, Alabama.)

Within the State Juvenile Hall known as Rainsbrew, lies a boy who was known for his attempts to kidnap and possibly almost abuse Jordan Rosato, and that boy's name is Andrew Hopkins.

Andrew smiles as he lies in bed and he looks to the ceiling. 'Just gotta be patient, and when the time is right then I am getting the heck out of here.' Then he hears some guards panicking and taking down some other inmates. 'And there it is!'

He gets out of bed and he sees his cell door open. "Thanks boys, and I was about time too."

Andrew made some new pals in jail, and he promised them something. But who are they and what did he promise to them?

Viktor Michtal – 12 years old, taller than Stella. Brown hair, wears a black jacket with a brown shirt inside that has a skull logo, black jeans and has skull earrings. He's in for making so much graffiti that pissed off the whole neighborhood.

Julian Malfoy – 12 years old, at the same height as Tabby. Blonde hair, wears a dark brown shirt, red pants and yellow sneakers. Sent here for breaking into cars, hacking into them, and driving them around like a maniac and crashing them. His dad is a former convict who stole cars.

Jack Kyle – 12 year's old, and taller than Chloe, but not as tall as Jenny. Black hair, wears a black shirt, brown jeans, red sneakers and glasses. He's in the joint for breaking into shops and stealing electronics and selling them back at a high price, some of the stuff he sold have been used, or have been busted up.

"Hey man! We took the privilege of getting our clothes back and yours." Julian tosses Andrew his signature clothes. "Let's bust this joint man, and quick before the cops realize that they're missing 4 dudes!"

Andrew changes out of his prison attire and into his clothing and they leave the area, they caused some trouble by tricking the guards, taking him down, using his keycard and releasing all the inmates, even the ones in maximum lockdown.

"Good job with that plan boys, now we're free from this hell hole!" said Andrew.

They then escape through a broken fence and head out to an abandoned refinery nearby. "As much as in like the smell of freedom, what we want it what you promised us Andrew!" said Jack.

"You had better not be tricking us, or there'll be hell to pay! And we care little about what you want and who you want dead!" said Viktor.

Andrew is not intimidated by them. "Relax boys, I promise you three that I will give you guys the prettiest girls to be by your side and I know just the trio to be your babes, all we need is some equipment for my plan to work and then we need a way to get some wheels."

Julian sees something and smiles. "I think I found what we need boys." They spot the broken down Volkswagen Beetle. "Just give me an hour and I'll have that piece of junk up and running!"

"Alright, now let's salvage what we can find in this old refinery and get to it!" said Andrew. They not and split up.

Andrew then looks to the horrible drawing he made of Jordan. "Soon, very soon. You will be mine and no one, not even the louds can stop me this time!" He then picks up a rusty pickaxe and a broken sledge hammer. "Time to force some love into my life!"

To be continued ….

A/N: I'm not a fan of shows that have fake ghost stuff, the Ghost Labs is legit to me and I like their show and what they do, and I would like to thank Avenger44 for the idea of the return of Andrew and his new goons in tow! Leave a review and tell me what you all think.

Date made: 8/3/20 – 8/4/20.
