Chapter 339.
(The Loud House.)
The school day is over and now the day has come, the day they show what they can do for the Royal Woods Middle School Talent Show.
Lincoln comes out of the room, with his big sister Luna behind him, both of them with the guitar and keytar they have held for safe keeping.
"Okay, so we have my guitar and Jordan's keytar, and Liam sent me a text that he and Tabby are inbound to the school with their instruments which they kept safe, we did well taking precautions" replied Lincoln.
"Even though she said she wouldn't make any diabolical schemes to get you till the end of the week, we had to be careful in case her friends went rogue and have some evil plans" replied Luna.
"Well, we should get going now, we have so much to set up and make it before the whole thing starts" replied Lincoln. They soon get down from the stairs and they make it out of the house, where they see the rest of the family waiting for them.
"There he is! One of the four in the awesome band, the Four Feathered Winged Friends!" Leni goes over and hugs Lincoln. "We are so proud of you baby brother!"
"The little bro with the musical skills and with the band and his lady by his side, you guys are gonna be champs when the whole thing is over" said Lynn Jr.
"Whatever happens, we know you guys are gonna make it possible and show everyone just how talented at music, and all thanks to your big sis" replied Lucy.
Lincoln chuckles. "Guys, guys. We haven't even won yet, and we're not really caring enough if we win or not, we just wanna show how truly skilled we are with what we can do and have fun."
"He is right" replied Lisa. "There are still other talents who could perhaps win, but it depends on how good they can be in front of everyone at the Talent Show, we should not try and put our hopes that Lincoln and his band would win this."
"Lincoln and his band are talented. We know they can win" replied Lola. But then Lana nudges her. "But, I guess we should be fair and also cheer for the other talents."
"Even though she's not here, Lori will be able to see everything thanks to your plan guys" said Michelle Lewis. "Also, Carol, Dana, Becky and Jessica wanna see it as well."
"Good, and just to be safe. Has Martin McKenzie arrived and made everything ready?" asked Lincoln.
"We got a call from Rick Rosato and he said that the guy was at the school and he already setup the safety precautions and the eagles are also there, with Jordan and her parents. They went there early to check on everyone and everything" replied Rita.
"Thanks mom, we can't let this whole event get ruined by six rich girls" said Luna. "We have to remain vigilant and keep on our toes for whatever they got planned, even if she did promise not to do anything bad for the rest of the week. We can't trust her friends, they're strong and dangerous enough to go rogue and do something way worse."
They all agreed to that one, Luna was right and they have to keep a close eye on Leslie Silver and her rich and mean friends.
Soon they get into their rides and they drive off to the Royal Woods Middle School, time for the talent show!
(Royal Woods Middle School Auditorium.)
Lincoln and Luna arrive to the backstage and they see all their friends getting ready: The Piano rivalry duo - Rusty and Richie check on their pianos for any damages, the dance duo of love -Trent and Kat go through their dance steps one last time and so does the pop-up trio - Chloe, Emma and Sadie.
The Clowning around team – Zach and Giggles are going through what they have to do and they make sure they have the gear they need for their performance, Flat Tire of course is checking on his bike and with the help from Clyde, they see if all the things he needs are ready, but the drama gaming duo – Laurence and Allison are nowhere to be seen for some reason, where the heck are they?
Jenny and Mrs. Veers are going through the stage setup and make sure that nothing has been tampered with, and they even go through some things that Martin McKenzie has left behind, mostly the secured surveillance and the eagles are at the top of the stage setup keeping an eye on the crowd.
The judges are Principal Ramirez, Coach Keck and Mayor Davis, wow! She's part of this?!
Soon, they spot Liam and Tabby, going through their own gear and making sure there aren't any signs of damage. But they look to Lincoln and Luna and wave to them, for some reason they looked excited for something.
Then outta nowhere, Jordan tackles Lincoln from behind, but he stands firm and he counters her and hugs her. "So, that's what they were being so nervous about, nice try and also very impressive" said Lincoln.
Luna chuckles from this. "This isn't gonna get old, I kinda like it when she does this and I am impressed at how you can hold your own when she jumps onto you little bro."
"Well, he has been training from the many times Sergei trained the both of us, so it makes sense why he can hold his own and it's good to see you guys" said Jordan.
Liam and Tabby then walk towards them. "The gear is al set and you're FutureTech friend did his part and made sure this whole place isn't ruined by some rich mean girls" said Tabby.
"Now all we gotta do is get ourselves ready for the big performance ahead of us!" said Liam. "Dang. I am as excited as when I was able to take down my first fox!"
Luna then hands Jordan her keytar. "Okay dudes, the gear is ready and everyone seems stoked for this. Just know, that what matters is that you dudes have fun and show respect. Got it?"
"We know sis, and don't worry about us. We can handle this" replied Lincoln. They then hear the crowd cheering and announcing all of this, is they're teacher Mrs. Veers.
"Hello everyone. Welcome to the Royal Woods Middle School Talent Show. Today, we are going to see some amazing performance from the best and finest new students and now without further ado, I present to you our first talent, the Drama Gaming Duo – Laurence and Allison!"
Everyone cheers and gets ready, though amongst the crowd is Leslie and her friends and they seem unamused by this event. "This is the worst thing for us to go to, what the heck we are doing here again?" asked Chastity.
"We're her because Leslie wants to see Lincoln perform and we're not doing anything to ruin this" said Gretchen. "And even though some of us wanna do something, we can't since word of FutureTech advanced stuff is here and keeping an eye on things, so we'd be in deep trouble if they caught us in the act."
Regina scoffs at this. "This sucks and I hate this new tech company for keeping us from doing what we want!"
"Would you guys shut it!" said Hope. They see Leslie looking forward to all of this, mostly to what Lincoln can do. "Let's not ruin this and make her angry, we do not like it when she gets angry."
They remain silent, all the while the eagles and some officers there are keeping an eye on things, mostly onto them. The louds and Rosato's ready their cameras to see just how talented everyone else is gonna be.
Leni and Michelle ready their cameras for Lori and the college girls to see the talent from Lincoln and his band.
Soon, they see the first performance and it is amazing to see. Laurence and Allison keep swapping clothing and show stories from games that have made time possible. They start with old arcade game characters and they keep advancing throughout games from generation to generation. So, it seems they're performance is magic and dance.
Next, they see Kat and Trent do a romantic dance, with the theme song "Smooth." and they seem truly passionate with their dance performance.
Chloe, Emma and Sadie perform a K-Pop dance, with the aid from the song "Pop Star" by K/DA. Thank you Lincoln and Jordan and the Gaming club for this suggestion.
The comedy is raised when they see Rusty and Richie perform their piano performance and end up turning into a contest to see who can keep playing with some obstacles: From pies, cakes, water and whipped cream. Yup, this is just like when Daffy and Donald did the same thing in the film. "Who framed Roger Rabbit?" and a lot of people are laughing from this, and yet they are good at holding their own with their piano skills.
The comedy is raised once more, when Zach and Giggles begin their comedy routine and Luan couldn't be any more proud at how well they are doing this, this is as good as what she did back when she did the Middle School Talent Show, and only this one isn't making everyone get hit by the act.
But things get into suspense when they all see Flat Tire with his performance on his bike and he is as incredibly skilled as he says and far more better than his old pal Poppa Wheelie. He rides his bike upside down, he does it with no hands on some well-placed railings and finally he passes through a burning hoop, with his eyes closed and blind folded. The very sight of this, was enough to make Jenny faint and also make Flat Tire's parents faint, his uncle is proud of him though.
Lincoln, Jordan, Liam, Tabby and Luna smile seeing this, these guys are giving it all they got to show just how talented they are.
Soon, they hear Mrs. Veers make the announcement for the final act, the Four Feathered Winged Friends. Luna looks to the kids. "Guys, do your best and have fun with it and whatever happens, show them what you guys can do!"
They smile and head on stage, the curtains are still down and they get to their instruments. Lincoln looks to his sister and friends who all give them a thumbs up and wish them good luck with their performance.
Lincoln looks to his band mates. "You guys ready for this?"
Jordan: We're with you all the way, this will be a performance everyone will never forget.
Liam: We've come this far, and now it's time to show how awesome we are with music as our talent!
Tabby: Let's rock this joint and show them just how much of a good time we can bring!
Lincoln then snaps his fingers and the lights go out, and then the beat of the song begins, and right in time for Leni and Michelle Lewis to turn on the cameras for Lori and the others at College to see this.
All four band members: Whoa-oh, Whoa-oh-oh.
Lincoln: Do you remember the.
21st night of September?
Love was changing the minds of pretenders.
While chasing the clouds away.
Jordan: Our hearts were ringing.
In the key that our souls were singing.
As we danced in the night.
Remember how the stars stole the night away.
All four band members: Ba de ya - say do you remember.
Ba de ya - dancing in September.
Ba de ya - never was a cloudy day.
Ba duda, ba duda, ba duda, badu.
Ba duda, badu, ba duda, badu.
Ba duda, badu, ba duda.
Tabby: My thoughts are with you.
Holding hands with your heart to see you.
Only blue talk and love.
Remember how we knew love was here to stay.
Liam: Now December found the love we shared in September.
Only blue talk and love.
Remember the true love we share today.
All four band members: Ba de ya - say do you remember.
Ba de ya - dancing in September.
Ba de ya - never was a cloudy day.
There was a
Ba de ya - say do you remember.
Ba de ya - dancing in September.
Ba de ya – never was a cloudy day.
Lincoln and Liam: The bell was ringing, aha.
And our souls were singing.
Do you remember?
Never was a cloudy day.
Ba de ya - say do you remember.
Ba de ya - dancing in September.
Ba de ya - never was a cloudy day.

Ba de ya - say do you remember. (Say do you remember.)
Ba de ya - dancing in September. (Dancing to December.)
Ba de ya - never was a cloudy day. (Till the summer day!)
Everyone cheers at this awesome performance they just made, they literally got a standing ovation. Everyone was cheering for this song.
Lincoln, Jordan, Liam and Tabby smile and they take a bow from everyone cheering. Soon, the curtains come down and everyone cheers the name, the Four Feathered Winged Friends.
Leslie and her friends were stunned by what they did. "That song was nice and all, but what the heck is everyone cheering about? Didn't seem special to me" said Regina.
"The people here have their own tastes in music and no idea how real songs are made" replied Karen.
But Leslie was blushing, the song was so beautiful and she could only dream…. That it was her on stage instead of Jordan, this truly does fuel anger within her. 'This. Is. Not. Gonna. Fly with me!'
At the backstage, Lincoln and Jordan are hugged by Luna who has tears in her eyes. "That was awesome! You dudes were awesome out there and I couldn't be any more proud of all of you!"
"Thanks Luna!" They also hug her back, then they're friends go to them and so does their music club leader and congratulate them at what they did and loved the song, but then they break it up as they hear Principal Ramirez go on stage with the other two judges to make the announcement on who won.
"Okay everyone. We made our choice and now the winners of this talent show are… The Four Feathered Winged Friends!"
Everyone cheers and claps at this, the louds and Rosato's are the loudest and beat Leslie at her cheering.
Lincoln, Jordan, Liam and Tabby are shocked by this and they go on stage and they are given the trophy and the grand prize which was then changed, all four of them now have a whole year of free dinner at Bangers n' Mosh!
They then take a bow at the cheers they got and the congratulations from their friends and other talents, even they knew they would win this talent show.
Lincoln then sees his band mates agreeing to what they plan next and he's handed the microphone. "Everyone, even though we did an awesome performance, there is only one person we would like to thank and it's to the best mentor we have ever had, my sister Luna Loud and of course her girlfriend, Sam Sharp!"
Sam is shocked he would say her name, Luna then goes on stage and Simon and Stella drag Sam to also go on stage and as they get to the stage, Lincoln, Jordan, Liam and Tabby hug them for everything they have done for them, all the teachings they got from the best musical teachers ever.
Everyone cheers at the sight, and soon Lincoln and Jordan share a passionate kiss and so does Liam and Tabby, but Luna and Sam share a quick kiss onto each other's cheek. This makes everyone cheer even more and with their phones recording the whole event, from song to end.
Soon, the rest of the louds and Rosato's join on stage, cheering for the victory the band got.
Though, this makes Leslie Silver angry. 'I hate that girl and I hate those other people! That should be me with him!' She then calms down. 'Just you wait, for soon when this week is over, I will get you to love me Lincoln Loud, and I won't stop until you do!'
To be continued….
A/N: This has been not so hard to make and I feel like this is the start of good and bad events and soon to come will be their five day stay at Sleeping Bear dunes, but next chapter as promised is a nice hang out, or date for Lincoln and Jordan. Leave a review and tell me what you all think.
Also, this song version is from Justin Timberlake & Anna Kendrick from the animated film Trolls.
Date made: 9/2/20.
