AUTHOR'S NOTE: I want to apologize for the lack of updates with this story and the others. I'm reaching the halfway point of my college years where I'll be complete with college. Sadly, my time was taken by not only doing assignments, but also playing game franchises I started to get into like Rayman, Pac Man World, Hat in Time, Shantae, Pokemon, and others. I even purchased the Switch Online Expansion Pack. Sadly, I was distracting myself a lot because of those games from completing these stories. I'm sorry for that. I want to thank people for still checking this story out. I originally was going to end this story with this chapter, but seeing how you guys lacked updates regarding it, I want to split it into parts so you can have something to read to while I plan the big payoff. In other words, you can read the first part of the ending while I go on to continue the remaining parts of the ending so a satisfying conclusion can arrive. I just hope I don't get distracted again. Enjoy the first part of this ending.
(Everything about Weirdmaggedon was gone. The fire was put out, the monsters were back where they belong, Bill has been defeated. The gang regrouped in a big area.)
Ford: Everyone ok?
(The rest of the gang nodded with responses of their own. Some of them were still hurt from their battle in Weirdmaggedon.)
Leni: My arm is in a funny position.
Lisa: Frankly, I have some red liquid leaking from the top of my head.
Luna: My leg feels weird from the kicking I have done to those creatures.
(Clyde went over to pick up some bandages and gauze from a nearby box.)
Clyde: Ok, that was convenient.
(After Clyde gives some of the gang some bandages are gauze to help heal their injuries, Ronnie Anne realized they forgot something—or rather, someone.)
Ronnie Anne: Wait a minute- Where's Lincoln?!
(They ran to the last area they saw him in. They gasped when they saw the area. A lot of car hoods were covering up Lincoln, as well with wheels and telephones wires. The Loud parents panicked while lifting the heavy objects, Ronnie Anne and Clyde helped with discarding any metallic objects, the Stan twins and their allies looked out for any civilians hurt from the Weirdmaggedon disaster. The gang finally found Lincoln underneath some rubble. All of the gang lifted the rubble to retrieve the boy. Lori picked up the unconscious Lincoln Loud.)
Rita: My baby!
Lori: Lincoln?!
Leni: Linky!
Ronnie Anne: Are you ok?!
Lynn Sr: Speak up, son!
Lana: Wake up, big brother!
(Some coughs were heard from him. Lincoln begun to open his eyes slowly. The gang beamed smiles when they see the boy wake up. Lola rushed over to hug Lincoln.)
Lola: Alrighty, Linky! You did it! You beat Bill!
(Lincoln brushed the back of his head before grabbing Lola's hands.)
Lincoln: Hey there, little girl. Nice dress you got.
(Lola was puzzled.)
Lana: Little girl? Linc? Are you ok?
Lincoln: I could be better. Hey, are the two of you related?
(The Louds gasped. Ronnie Anne and Clyde's eyes widened.)
Lynn Jr: Lincoln?
Lincoln: There's that name again. Why are you calling me that?
Lola: Come on, Lincoln. It's me. (walks closer to Lincoln) Linky, it's me! (Lana pulls her away)
Rita: What's happened with my baby?
Ford: We had to get his memory erased to get rid of Bill. There was no other choice we could have done.
Luan: No…
Lana: It can't be!
Clyde: Lincoln!
Stan: Wait! I know what to do!
(Everyone faces him)
Clyde: You do?
Stan: Yeah. When we defeated him before, Bill was in my head. Ford used the same method he did now to get rid of him. Erasing my memory.
Lynn Sr: What can we do about this?!
Stan: I was able to regain my memories with the use of a scrapbook that detailed some adventures I had with my old friends. In fact…
(Two kids stepped from the side. They were revealed to be Dipper and Mabel Pines. The two twins were the nephews of Grunkle Stan and Ford. They approached the Louds.)
Dipper: Hello there, everyone. I'm Dipper.
Mabel: And I'm Mabel! We're the Pines twins!
Dipper: Mabel, now's not the time! We need to help that kid get his memories back!
Mabel: Right! (she runs to Lincoln) Kid, do you happen to remember anything about your family?
Lincoln: No. I don't know them. Who are all these girls? And who are the rest of you?
(Dipper and Mabel look at each other in concern. It was going to be a lot harder to get Lincoln to regain his memories than it was for bringing back Stan's memories before.)
Dipper: Maybe we should bring him back to his house. The familiar surroundings should help recollect his memories.
(Luna picked up Lincoln from the ground before everyone started walking back to the Loud House. They passed by some familiar areas, but it didn't help since most of those areas were destroyed by Weirdmaggedon. Everyone passed by the forgotten Flip's Food & Fuel, but Lincoln did not recognize the store.)
Clyde: Buddy? Recognize this place? We hid there when we thought we were the last ones to survive.
Lincoln: I don't seem to recall.
(The gang walked by a broken Burpin Burger.)
Lynn Jr: What about Burpin Burger? We went there a few times.
Lana: We even got trapped under snow there one time!
Lincoln: That place should be shut down for a while so it can be repaired.
(The Louds gave each other looks of regret, knowing that they were part to blame for starting the whole Bill Cipher mess. Getting Lincoln to remember the good times he had with his family was not as easy as they thought. Royal Woods Middle School and Elementary School were the next buildings to pass by, but Lincoln was not able to recall any of his adventures he had there.)
Lynn Jr: Linc? You don't remember going to middle school with me? You mostly had it rough on your first day at middle school there.
Lincoln: I was in middle school? That feels advanced. To me, I believe that the elementary school is a suitable approach for me. None of that will matter since both buildings are equally destroyed.
Ronnie Anne: What about the time the two of us took care of an egg for an assignment? Any chance you can recall that?
Lincoln: I don't know about that, but it sure seems like a hard project to do.
(Clyde looked guilty about this since he almost ended his friendship with Lincoln due to Bill's setting up with Lori, but now his stomach was upset since Lincoln doesn't even recognize his best friend.)
(This process was eventually repeated when the gang walked through more locations they passed by. This was not working, as Lincoln cannot remember anything about them. They finally reached the Loud House. But it was in a poor state. Thanks to Weirdmaggedon, the house was destroyed as well. The garage door was busted, the roof was broken, some parts of the house were torn down, and the roof was gone. But it was nothing compared to the interior of the house. Lynn Sr used the doorknob to open the door, but it came right off.)
Loud Family: (except Lincoln) Dang it.
Lincoln: I assume this happens frequently?
Lynn Jr: A lot.
Stan: Not to worry. I can just bust the door down.
(Stan proceeds to walk back before charging at the door. It didn't seem to work, as the door wasn't knocked down.)
Stan: That hurt.
Dipper: How else can we get in?
Mabel: Not to worry. (steps forward) Lucky thing I still got my grappling hook.
(Mabel manages to use her grappling hook to grapple on the top of the house. She found a hole that can gain entrance to the Loud House. After lowering herself to safety, she managed to get the door open to allow everyone else in. The Louds took a glimpse and gasped. Everything inside the house was destroyed. The stairs were broken, the windows were shattered, some paint was peeled off, the TV was badly damaged, there were too many disasters that occurred in the Loud House. Lincoln walked up first to examine the house.)
Lincoln: Wow. This is one huge house you got here. Nice place you got here, I guess. Could take a lot of people to clean this place up.
Leni: But… you live here!
Lucy: Please remember that you were born as the only brother in the family, Lincoln.
Lana: Don't you remember anything about yourself, or even us?
Lincoln: (sits down on a chair) Nope, but I will admit, this chair right here hits the spot! Pretty soft for a house destroyed like this.
(Lincoln tries to relax, but he felt some bumpy objects on the chair. He found out that there were some animals that came out of the chair. More specifically, the pets of the Louds. Walt, Geo, Cliff, and Charles were all excited to see Lincoln again. Unfortunately for them, the boy doesn't remember the pets.)
Lincoln: Whoa! A dog, cat, hamster in a ball, and a canary. You usually never see these animals together at the same time. Surprised they're not attacking each other.
(Charles got in Lincoln's lap, trying to make him remember. But all that did was make Lincoln pet him and put him down on the floor. Cliff attempted to sit on Lincoln's stomach to purr, attempting to help him regain his memories. That didn't work either. Even Walt and Geo were unsuccessful with getting Lincoln to remember them.)
Lincoln: You pets are sure lucky to be living in a family this huge. I can't believe you guys have it easy. (notices Hops) Hello, what's this? (grabs the frog) This is one impressive toad.
Lana: (upset) He is a frog.
Lincoln: Well, I hope you get your house fixed soon. (sees the depressed Louds staring at him) What's with the depressed faces? You guys are acting as if someone close to you ended up disappearing. And who's that weird guy crying in the corner?
(Lynn Sr started sobbing about his only son forgetting his family. He cried on Rita's shoulder.)
Luan: We managed to save the world, but at what cost? Our brother doesn't remember himself or us.
Ronnie Anne: We need to do something about this.
Clyde: What can we do?
Stan: There might be a way to get his memory back. I mean, it worked with me before.
Ford: He's right. It all seemed hopeless at first when Stan didn't recognize us, but he was able to get his memory back when we managed to remind him the good times that we had with him. This won't be so easy with Lincoln since we are not related.
Dipper: What can we do to have Lincoln recognize his family?
Mabel: Perhaps a scrapbook of Lincoln's memories can help with that. (to the Louds) Anyone of you got a scrapbook of your memories with him?
Rita: I believe so. (notices Lincoln's birth story on some wood) His birth story!
(Rita rushes over to the broken wood. She grabbed the book and gave it to Lincoln. The boy was confused.)
Lincoln: Why is the book blank?
(Rita realized that his birth story was empty when she noticed her son's confusion. Mabel came up to her.)
Mabel: Are there any other books of your memories with him besides that one?
Luna: (realizes something) I know!
(Luna walks over carefully to receive another scrapbook, this time with pictures that have both Lincoln and the Loud family with them.)
Rita: Thanks, sweetie. This has to work.
(Rita opened the scrapbook. She sat next to Lincoln so she can show her son the memories and adventures they had in the Loud House.)
Lana: Don't you remember the time Mom and Dad brought me and Lola back from the hospital when we were born?
Luan: Or the time you suffered all my traps on April Fools to prevent Ronnie Anne from getting hurt by them?
Luna: Please tell me you remember our first concert together!
(Lincoln gives puzzled faces as they scroll through the pages. He stood up.)
Lincoln: Look, I'm sorry. I don't know what this is, or who you guys are, or what this place is. I should probably just leave this place so I can go back where I came from.
(Lincoln tries to head out to the front door, but his sisters held on to his legs to prevent him for leaving. They were being dragged on the floor, but they didn't care about the injuries they would receive from doing that.)
Lori: Lincoln, no!
Leni: Don't leave us!
Luna: We really need you, baby bro!
Luan: This isn't the Loud House without you!
Lucy: Don't give us up.
Lynn Jr: You're our favorite sibling!
Lola: Linky, please remember us!
Lana: I don't want to lose my big bro!
Lisa: Please, brother sibling unit!
Lily: Linky!
(Lincoln looks at the Loud sisters, who were all shedding tears. He had a guilty look on his face when he sees the girls beginning to sob as he tried to move forward. The boy sighed. He looked at the broken picture frames of the Loud sisters. Even by looking at them, Lincoln did not recognize them. However, a small white object was seen from the bottom of the stairs. Lincoln walked to it so he can grab it. It was his toy Bun-Bun.)
Lincoln: This toy seems familiar.
(The Loud sisters peered on over when Lincoln looked at his toy. That look he had on his face, it looked like he was struggling to remember his favorite toy. Everything was quiet for a moment.)
Lynn Sr: You remember that toy, son?
Lincoln: I think so, Mr. Loud. I can't put my finger on it, but this bunny toy looks familiar.
(Lincoln continued to squint at the eyes of Bun-Bun. Soon, he started to put things two by two. Lincoln managed to remember his toy.)
Lincoln: Bun-Bun?
(The Louds were shocked at this event. Lincoln was able to recognize his favorite childhood toy! They looked at each other, knowing that it was not too late to get his memory back. They walked around to find anything that can get Lincoln's memory back. Rita and Lynn Sr brought the blanket with the seal of the U.S.A president's eagle on it. Lincoln walked to it slowly, touching it. He remembered his birth, as well as his parents. The rest of the sisters started gathering objects to bring Lincoln's memories back. Lynn Jr grabbed the game she and Lincoln played when the boy was just a baby. Luan grabbed Lincoln and used him as a puppet by moving his mouth like one like the time when they were young. Lori and Leni found some lipstick to use on the boy, bringing back memories when they used to put makeup on him when he was a baby.)
Lincoln: Leni? Lori? Luan? Lynn Jr? Is that you?
Lynn Jr: It's working! Keep bringing stuff to make Linc remember us!
(The rest of the sisters grabbed everything they can to reenact their first moments with Lincoln. Lynn Jr had to get Lincoln's old Halloween costume to help recreate his first meeting with Clyde. Some blood leaked from his nose before the cape covered it. Lincoln managed to remember his best friend.)
Dipper: Does this always happen?
Clyde: Yeah. Very often.
Stan: You should really see a doctor.
(What came next was Ronnie Anne's turn to reenact her meeting with Lincoln. It wasn't pleasant since the events that occurred were the stunts the girl pulled on the boy. Even a steak was applied to Lincoln's eye when it was punched by Ronnie Anne.)
Ronnie Anne: Sorry about that, Lincoln.
Lincoln: No problem, Ronnie Anne. (realizes her) Ronnie Anne, I recognize you too!
(In a matter of time, Lincoln was able to regain his memories. He is now able to remember his family, his friends, and all the adventures he had. He also remembered the time Bill tricked him into a deal, as well as the showdown he had with the demon.)
Mabel: Did you remember everything, Lincoln?
Lincoln: I sure do. Who are you, btw?
Mabel: Oh, pardon me. I'm Mabel Pines. This is my brother Dipper. We're twins.
Lincoln: Really?
Dipper: Yeah. I know you think that is weird, but honest.
(Dipper puts his hat on Mabel. Everyone was astonished of how they look similar.)
Mabel: Can barely see the difference, huh?
(Everyone else agreed. The Louds cheered since they were able to restore Lincoln's memories. The Louds hugged each other, happy that they got Lincoln back. Lincoln started to cry in the hug.)
Lincoln: I'm so sorry!
Rita: What?
Lynn Sr: No, honey. No, no, Lincoln.
Lincoln: (sniffs) I know I got a problem. I made the deal with Bill. I got him to possess me. I ended up letting him cause chaos. I'm so sorry about all of this! I don't deserve to be a Loud.
(Rita grabs Lincoln's face, squishing his cheeks together.)
Rita: Lincoln, Lincoln, Lincoln. Don't you dare be sorry! Look what you did!
Lincoln: W-what?
Lynn Sr: You found us!
Rita: That's right! You found us. You found your way back to us by surviving Bill.
Lynn Jr: You really proved us that you are special by defeating that Bill jerk.
Luna: Baby bro, why do you think we all came to save you?
Lori: Because we believed that even though you got possessed, there was still a chance to save you!
Lana: We fought Bill's minions and almost got ourselves killed to get you back.
Lisa: And you fought Bill, defeating him!
Lola: Exactly!
Lincoln: But I thought you would have given me up. The sister fight protocol, the sweet spot, the money incident, the bad luck incident, everything.
Lori: Lincoln, we survived through death traps like guns, grenades, knifes, snipers, all the weapons Bill's army used against us.
Lynn Jr: That alone proves that we care about you.
Lana: Same goes for the adventures we went through together. Like the camping trip we found gold to save Dad's camp, the time we hid some frogs from your elementary school principal, and the time we went on a road trip!
Lynn Sr: It's good we survived that last one.
(Lincoln sniffles a bit less. Rita holds his face.)
Rita: You found us. Lincoln, you know why you found us? Because you proved that you belong in this family.
Lori: She's right, Lincoln. Remember what we told you before?
Lincoln: Yeah. I'm kind.
(Lori nods)
Lincoln: I'm fashionable.
(Leni giggles)
Lincoln: I'm rocking.
(Luna winks)
Lincoln: I'm funny.
(Luan laughs)
Lincoln: I'm tough.
(Lynn Jr gives a thumbs up.)
Lincoln: I'm deep.
(Lucy smiles)
Lincoln: I'm friendly.
(Lola and Lana beamed at their brother.)
Lincoln: I'm smart.
(Lisa shrugs happily.)
Lincoln: But most importantly…
(Lily started to walk to her big brother. Lincoln picked her up.)
Lincoln: I'm Lincoln Loud.
(The Louds cheered hearing this. The others were smiling. Grunkle Stan even wiped a tear from his eye. Mabel caught notice of this.)
Mabel: (smirks) I saw that, tough guy.
Stan: No, no. That last battle with Bill nearly scarred my eye with his claw and—All right, so I'm not made of stone.
(More parts of the house began to crumble. Everyone rushed outside to avoid being clobbered by debris. As the last person exited the Loud House, the house finished crumbling. Everyone gasped at the sight. Everything in the Loud House was destroyed. The rooms, garage, kitchen, bathroom, everything was gone. Lincoln stepped forward to investigate the damage. He saw that many of his possessions were in ruins. From his Ace Savvy comics to Bun-Bun, nothing was recovered. The others investigated what remains of their home. None of their possessions made it out. Items like Mr. Coconuts, beauty pageant crowns, instruments, sports gear, and kitchen utensils did not survive the destruction.)
Rita: It's all gone. Everything.
Lynn Sr: The Loud House is destroyed.
Lincoln: What do we do now?
(Before anyone can answer the question, they were interrupted by some footsteps. Everyone turned around to see the various Royal Woods citizens walking to them where the Loud House last stood. People like Sam, Benny, Stella, Chandler, Hawk and Hank, Chunk, and everyone that known the Louds gathered.)
Dipper: Looks like we got company.
(The Louds knew what was happening. Since Bill wasn't really defeated the first time and caused massive destruction around the area, they only had themselves to blame since they were the reason Lincoln made the deal with Bill in the first place. They prepared to face the constant yelling and insults from the Royal Woods citizens. However, as they waited, nothing happened. They only saw that the citizens were feeling sorry for them.)
Sam: Hey, Louds. Is Lincoln ok?
Darcy: That was one huge meanie Bill was.
Lincoln: Yeah. Honestly, I'm part to blame for this. It is mostly my fault for making the deal with him, unaware that he will possess me, causing chaos in Royal Woods.
Luna: We honestly are much to blame as you are, baby bro.
Lynn Sr: Me and Rita also deserve the blame as well. We should have been better parents to our kids. Letting them solve their own problems has gone far enough. We need to step in their lives more often.
(The majority of Royal Woods citizens were surprised to hear this. They would normally blame the Louds for destruction like this and would want to chase them out of town, but they never expected the Louds to own up to their actions, let alone take responsibility for their actions. Usually, the parents would just make excuses.)
Mr. Bolhofner: Wow. That's new.
Principal Huggins: I know that those Loud kids are mischievous, especially Lincoln. But I never thought I see the day they start becoming mature.
Theresa Davis: Frankly, this could be the start of a new day. (to everyone) Attention, Royal Woods. I have a big announcement to make. But first, let's congratulate the Louds for getting rid of that big monster. To show our gratitude, we all must lend in a hand to help rebuild their home!
(Every Royal Woods citizen cheered in response. They went to grab any hardware stores remaining to see if they can find the right tools to repair the Loud House. It was not an easy process to do since they were limited on tools and boards. The Louds, Ronnie Anne, Clyde, the Stan twins, and the Mystery twins came in to help as well. Lynn Jr helped Hank and Hawk handle some of the cement required to rebuild the driveway. Luna and Sam held some bricks to help make the roof of the house. Rita was mostly in charge at assigning everyone to their positions since she was a crossing guard in the past. Lynn Sr helped the male adults assemble some wood to replace the broken areas that require wood like the stairs, chairs, and floorboards.)
Stan: Wow. This has got to be the most productive city I ever seen participate in!
Ford: Yeah. And people say Gravity Falls is crazy. Hand me that drill, will ya?
(Lori and Bobby grabbed some paint to apply the colors of the house. They covered the bottom area and the top area. Lana and Lola held the ladders to make sure they don't fall. Dipper held onto Mabel as they used her grappling hook to dispose of any ruined wood. Lucy, with the help of her bat, dug out damaged areas to get rid of.
Carol: This is one huge house.
Lori: Trust me. The interior is a whole different story compared to the outside.
Bobby: Even an apartment would not be this chaotic.
Ronnie Anne: Seriously?
(The mayor even helped assemble some material to replace broken areas of the house. She instructed some people to replace the destroyed kitchen. She also had the living room repaired with the help of some construction workers. Some other items like the TV or toaster will have to be replaced later. Lana used her skills to help the adults fix items that they can't reach. Lola, despite her being against becoming dirty when fixing things, participated in repairing their home. Lisa and David got to help pick up any destroyed parts of the house to be sent to the dump.)
Luna: Anyone got some paint buckets?
Chunk: Right here, love.
Sam: Don't forget any spots!
(Some music was played as everyone repaired the Loud House. Chandler and the other kids grabbed some paintbrushes to lend in a hand. Even the small kids like Meli Ramos and Darcy came to fix the house. Surprisingly, it only took a few hours for the house to be completely restored to its old self.)
Lincoln: Wow. It seems better than before.
Theresa Davis: Oh, it is. We also put in some extra stuff to thank you for saving Royal Woods.
(The Louds' eyes widened.)
Lana: Wait, really?
Lincoln: You're kidding.
Girl Jordan: Look inside.
(The Louds entered their repaired home. The sight made their jaws drop in shock. The floor was clean, the couch was bigger, the kitchen was cleaner, everything was improved. But what really improved the mood was that the bathrooms have been increased. There used to be only one bathroom for the Louds. But now the amount has been majorly improved. The Loud family was surprised by this.)
Lincoln: This is amazing.
Rita: This is like the time we went to that castle in Scotland!
Lynn Sr: Very clean! But what about…
(Lynn Sr hears a familiar beeping noise. He looked behind himself. The man was surprised that his beloved vehicle came back. He hugged it with all his might.)
Lynn Sr: Oh, Vanzilla! I thought I lost you for good! I promise to never let you again!
(The Louds rolled their eyes, especially Lincoln. Lynn Sr realized his mistake.)
Lynn Sr: Eh, the new car is nice, but I got something even better. A son.
(Lincoln smiled. The citizens were about to leave them, but Lincoln stopped them.)
Lincoln: Wait. I want to say thank you for helping us rebuild our home. Even though we stopped that invasion, we also want to give our gratitude by helping repair Royal Woods.
Theresa Davis: You mean it?
Lincoln: Well, yes. You could really use the help restoring the town.
(The Louds, Ronnie Anne, Clyde, the Stan twins, and the Mystery twins nod in approval.)
Theresa Davis: Well said, Lincoln Loud. (to the crowd) Now it is time for the announcement. The Louds and their allies will help us rebuild Royal Woods. This won't be easy, but with the support from them, our home will be back to the way it was.
(The crowd nodded in response. The Louds and their allies split up to help fix Royal Woods. Some of the Louds' friends supported them. Even some of the rivals the Louds made over the years also came to fix the town. They went to various locations such as the schools of Royal Woods, the hospital, the town center, and other places the citizens usually go to. Hawk and Hank, along with the Athletic Team, were joined by Lynn Jr and her friends to repair Royal Woods Middle School.)
Hawk: We're going to be honest, Lynn Jr. The way you went all that way to stop that evil being, it was awesome.
Lynn Jr: Oh, really?
Hank: Yes. We aren't kidding. Not even the strong guys like Hawk and I can achieve that.
Paige: What did you expect? She's Lynn Jr. She's a champion at sports. Defending herself isn't a problem.
Maddie: Lynn is the best!
Lynn Jr: Yeah. But honestly, you guys all play a part in the team. Playing these sports really taught me to value the importance of supporting you guys.
Paula: You really mean it?
Lynn Jr: Of course. You guys matter to me as much as the sports do.
Maddie: Good to hear.
Hawk: By the way, Lynn, there is something we got to address.
Hank: We want to apologize on being hard on you. You really are a better sports person than the both of us.
Hawk: And we also want to say that we are sorry for being harsh on your brother as well. That wasn't very cool of us to harass him and his friends that Halloween night.
Lynn Jr: You guys mean that?
Hawk: Yup.
Hank: Definitely.
Lynn Jr: (raises an eyebrow) What made you guys become so nice to me?
Hawk: Hey, that Halloween thing really scared us. Scared us straight.
Hank: That sure taught us a lesson. Not to mention that your brother started to creep us out. Especially when he chased us with a chainsaw. That kid has some real problems. No offense, though.
(Lynn Jr was surprised to hear that as well. Although she was relieved that her rivals owned up to their mistakes, she was still concerned about the damage Bill did in Lincoln's body.)
Lynn Jr: (in thoughts) I'm going to need to have a serious talk with little bro. Bill really messed him good.
(The two strong athletes carried scrap metal while Lynn Jr and the others used some nearby trash cans to collect any damaged debris. Later, Lola is with some of her opponents from her beauty pageants. They are using some brooms to clear any messes.)
Lola: This mess is huge compared to the one back home.
Winston: No kidding. Property damage by that devil was huge.
Meli Ramos: It's a relief that meanie and the other bullies are gone.
Roxanne: Sadly, it will be a long time before beauty pageants can continue in Royal Woods again.
Meli Ramos: You sure are lucky to have a good brother, Lola.
Lola: What can I say? I'm Lola Loud.
Lindsay Sweetwater: Yes, you are.
Lola: If you are here to gloat, you are wasting your time!
Lindsay Sweetwater: Actually, no. I'm not here to gloat.
Lola: Then what are you here for? Aside from cleaning this place.
Lindsay Sweetwater: To admit that you are better than I am.
(Lola gets confused about this.)
Lola: Excuse me?
Lindsay Sweetwater: I'm not joking about this. Proving your bravery against that demon shows how much of a true pageant queen you are. Plus, you were able to use weapons properly! You're better than I am.
(Lola smiles hearing about this.)
Lindsay Sweetwater: I honestly was really terrified when that white haired kid chased me with a scythe. I bet you would have torn him apart. You got no fear.
(Lola gulped hearing that. She had Lindsay as a rival, but to hear that her possessed brother almost kill her big competitor, that was way too far, even for Lola Loud.)
Lola: (in thoughts) Maybe those people are right. I am too harsh on my big brother. Because of me, it is what caused him to make that deal with Bill.
(Lori is with her friends repairing Fairway University. Lori and Carol were using shovels to dig out the dirt from certain areas.)
Lori: This place is literally in shambles.
Bobby: No surprise there. An apocalypse did happen.
Carol: The skills you have did to fight off those demons, Lori, your golfing days really paid off!
Lori: Yes, they did. Those brainwashed slaves of Bill might have overpowered us, but me and the family managed to defeat their leader.
Bobby: I'm really surprised my sister knew how to handle weapons. I know she is a tomboy kind of person, but damn.
Carol: So, Lori. What are your plans in the future?
Lori: What do you mean?
Carol: What do you plan to do when you finish college? Time will be passing by as the years of college roll by.
Lori: Well, I happen to know what I will do to prepare for the future, but I don't want to gloat about it. We still must fix this place.
Carol: Good to know you have a future planned. Nice to see you matured. That night we spent together on a senior night in the high school was honestly one of the best times we did together.
Bobby: Babe, do you believe Lincoln will be alright?
Lori: I bet so. Why are you asking?
Bobby: Because during this whole disaster event occurring, I saw him chasing Carol with a flamethrower. Not to mention that he trapped me by using a bear trap.
(All Lori did was stare at the sky.)
Lori: (in thoughts) I really was harsh on Lincoln. Ever since I threatened to turn him into a human pretzel, my actions toward him became more hostile than ever. And because of that, he got tricked by Bill to take over his body. I need to reconcile with him.
TO BE CONTINUED…
