Family of Two.
Chapter 449: Great Lakes inbound.

(January 8. Santiago Apartment, Great Lakes City.)

The day has come, and right now we see the car of Luna Loud arrive, and coming out are Lincoln, Jordan, Luna and Delilah, and the group look to the Apartment building and then Luna grabs her gear. "Alright, Maria Santiago is gonna be here since she has a day off, you guys have fun with your friends."

Delilah grabs her bike from the back and she helps Lincoln and Jordan grab their bikes as well. "Alright, I'll be off to the local dojo here and see what they have that is possibly good karate, since I was only here to watch the Chavez Academy karate demonstration. See you guys later."

Lincoln and Jordan go for their bikes, but then Luna goes to her son and she kisses his forehead, and this makes him chuckle and then she places some kisses on his cheek and nose, and Jordan giggles seeing this. "Alright, mom, I love you too." Lincoln then hugs her. "We'll be fine."

Luna chuckles. "I love you too, kiddo." Luna then watches her son ride off with his girlfriend for the Great Lakes City skateboard park to meet with their friends Ronnie Anne and Sid. Luna then walks towards the apartment building and then she sees Maria come out.

"Hey, Luna. Alright, I am ready for some musical lessons" replied Maria. "I need to make something for my friends back at the Hospital, because she's gonna have her birthday and if possible, she might also have her baby soon."

Luna is surprised to hear this. "Huh, didn't see that coming. Well, alright then, but one thing to do first..." Luna throws one of the cymbals and it flies off and hits something hiding in the trees, and then cymbal comes back and Luna catches it. "Parrot."

Luna and Maria walk over to Sergio and they see the camera, and then Maria removes the tape. "Hey, that's mine!" Then Maria hands the camera to Luna and she breaks it with her hands. "Hey, that was also mine!"

Luna then looks to Maria, and they both nod. Maria grabs Sergio, and she ties his wings with some metal wiring. "Wait, what are you doing?!" She then spins the parrot around, then she winds up like a baseball player, and she throws Sergio.

Luna sees this and grins, and she uses her electric guitar and she hits Sergio so hard, he flies off. "Looks like he's headed back to the Casagrandes Apartment, has he been spying a lot lately?"

Maria sighs. "Apparently he's back to his old tricks. Sergio doesn't even see the mistakes he's done, and thus he's just being himself. I know that's not what you wanna hear, well don't worry. I spoke with my mom, and... Well, we need to talk about what I have scolded to her on what to do with that parrot."

Luna is curious from this and so she follows Maria into the apartment building, to know what this whole plan is, but what is it though?

(Par's Dojo.)

Welcome to the local and only Dojo in Great Lakes City, and thus there are some students there being taught by a guy whom is always at the Mercado of the Casagrandes delivering the produce, his name is Par and he is the sensei of this joint.

Right now, the students are showing they're moves to the ace karate student from Royal Woods, Delilah Lewis Loud and she observes each one and how skilled they are, and she is impressed at their devotion and how hard they do what they can to show that they are karate material and apprentice material.

Delilah continues to watch this and then she claps. "Well, I have to say. All of you have shown quite the potential, well not all of you..." She then looks towards Carl and the kid grumbles.

Delilah then speaks to Par. "Now, these students are dang good at karate and are also amazing at what they can do. But, they don't seem to have the potential to be even given the tasks of being my student, so I have made my choice on who is going to be trained by my sharpened skills."

Par is excited to hear this. "And who might that be, Delilah?"

Delilah smirks. "The star pupil of the school."

"Yes!" Carl cheers. "I knew that I would be chosen, after all I am the..."

"Carl, you're the former star pupil, after the big mistakes you made last year" replied Par. "Sorry, little dude. But it looks like Adelaide is gonna be the one taught by the ace of karate from Royal Woods."

Delilah looks to Adelaide and the duo bow to each other. "I look forward to training and learning from you, and I must inform my family about this. But, I must ask, how do you intend to come back and forth between Royal Woods and Great Lakes City?" asked Adelaide.

Delilah grins. "Oh, I have my ways Adelaide Chang, I have my ways and a plan." All of the students cheer and clap for Adelaide being picked, they kinda knew because she is the star pupil there.

Then Carl scoffs. "Well, I didn't even wanna be her student, because I am a master!"

Delilah is unsure about this. "Alright then, then let us see what you can do against an ace student." She then stands ready. "I am ready."

Carl growls. "I am a master and I will be the star pupil again!" Carl then charges at her, but Delilah steps aside and she grabs Carl's arms and throws him back to where he was and he stumbles but is back on his feet.

"You are being too fast, and not thinking straight and that means you have no patience or any forms of thinking on what happens on your next move." Delilah then leaps away from Carl's reckless incoming punch, and then he tries to punch Delilah again.

But Delilah stops it with one finger and she pins Carl to the ground with one arm and Carl struggles to break free. "How're you doing this?!"

Delilah then balances on her arm pinning Carl. "I was trained back then on my birth town and I was a dang good student, and then I was trained by the sensei in Royal Woods, and he taught me so much from his former mentor and friends, and so his knowledge has been passed down to me. How else did we manage to beat Beaverton? We had the skills, patience and honorable ways of karate."

Delilah then leaps off of Carl and she stands on one toe. "Also, my sensei learned his karate from Asia, not from America."

Everyone claps, and so does Par and he wipes away some tears. "I am so honored to know this and perhaps some teaching ways and new skills can be taught here, I must speak with your sensei about this!"

"And I would be honored to allow you to see what we can do." Delilah then looks towards Adelaide. "And I look forward to teaching you more than what you have come to know, to show you that you too can be an ace karate student and possibly, a master."

Adelaide is shocked and she bows. "I am honored to be taught by an ace such as you." Delilah also bows to her, and everyone claps and cheers seeing and hearing this and the whole thing was recorded by one of the students and even recorded the whole small battle between Carl and Delilah.

Carl gets up and he grumbles. 'Stupid karate ace Delilah. I can be better than her, just you wait!'

(The Great Lakes City Skateboard Park.)

We head to the place where everyone enjoys some awesome skateboarding fun, and it's just Ronnie Anne, Sid, Lincoln and Jordan there, the rest of Ronnie Anne's friends have their own plans, and so this is just those who wanna chill and talk.

"So, the whole ordeal with Leslie's grandparents is still ongoing?" asked Sid as she skates around.

Lincoln nods. "Well, sorta. But here's the thing... They haven't been seen in nearly more than a week, and this might be either a good sign or a bad sign. We don't even know where they are, but chances they might be planning something."

Ronnie Anne then lands in front of them after she skates by the fountain. "Chances they might be thinking of some way to bust Leslie out of jail, way too obvious guys."

Jordan then speaks otherwise. "Not possible, girls. I mean they'd need some powerful lawyer to get in and have her busted out. This is the advanced and secured and no way for them to get her out, and bailing is not possible either."

Lincoln agrees. "There is no way for them to get Leslie out, but we don't know for sure. We'd have to check on that place, and it is far away in Nashville."

"That is true" replied Sid, she then looks to Ronnie Anne, and they both nod and it means they have to inform them. "Guys, Sergio is back to his old version self."

Lincoln crushes the soda he is drinking and he doesn't care if it is spilling. "What?"

Ronnie Anne sighs and tells them. "Yeah, apparently Sergio is being himself once more, but with little pigeons in the city he has no friends, and same for the ones in the zoo since they don't wanna see him anymore, and he still thinks he's with Priscilla, but she's in a relationship with a new ostrich."

"But, my mom talked to my Abuela, she had some words exchanged and they came to a conclusion about something once Sergio goes way too far."

Jordan then asks. "And what might that be?"

Ronnie Anne then sees Lincoln looking away, and he has his hands into fist, and so she tells them. "Should Sergio do something troublesome, something rude and horrible and then... Then they will have no choice but to send Sergio away from Great Lakes City, and have him stay with my great Abuela."

"A place where Sergio will be taught some lessons, and made to not do any trouble. To be honest, I wanted him shipped off to the Amazon Rainforest so he doesn't ever come back, Sergio going back to the way he was before, that does not sound good for some of us."

"No kidding." Sid then looks to Lincoln. "Lincoln, are you alright?"

Lincoln sighs. "I'm gonna be back, I need to know if my mom is aware of this." He then gets back on his bike and he rides off and so does Jordan, leaving Ronnie Anne and Sid by themselves.

Sid then looks to Ronnie Anne. "That went well, sorta. You think they're gonna be alright?"

Ronnie Anne has a stern look, and she really hates Sergio and Sancho sits on her helmet and he too hates the parrot. "We're not sure if they will be fine. But telling them the truth is for the best, chances they won't be back in Royal Woods for a long while."

Ronnie Anne and Sid then get onto their skateboards and they race after Lincoln and Jordan, to see what Luna Loud and the others might think about this, because they know Royal Woods and the former louds will be informed about the returning trouble of the parrot, Sergio Casagrande.

To be continued.

A/N: Looks like that parrot is back to what he does troublesome, and hasn't learned anything, sorta. As for Delilah, she found her student and Carl just never learns from his mistakes. I do hope that some of you may have enjoyed reading this new chapter everyone.
