Hey everyone! Sorry if it's been so long since the last chapter, but I've been really busy working on The Loud House Tales as well as other things. But don't worry, I have the rest of the chapters all planned out in advance so they should be coming shortly. Also I wanted this story to be completed before the Loud House Tales reaches its 50th chapter. With all that said, hope you enjoy.

During the banquet, the kids were all busy having fun and eating food. Over at the buffet table, Lincoln tried to get some food, but ended up getting interrupted by one of his sisters.

"Hey Lincoln!" Lana tugs Lincoln by the arm. "You gotta come see this!"

"I'd love to Lana, but….."

"Come on! You can eat later. You can't miss this!" The young handy woman took her brother to a place where they were in front of a majestic view. The sun was setting on the horizon and the trees and grass were nice and green.

Lincoln was amazed. "Wow! This is pretty nice."

"And you know what else?" Lana tagged him and ran off into the field. "You're it!"

"Oh it's on, little sis!" Lincoln chases after her, but felt very weak. "Alright, Lana. You're it…." Lincoln collapses on the ground.

"Come on Lincoln. It's no fun when you're just lying around doing nothing."

"But I haven't had anything to eat. I'm exhausted."

"I don't think that's your problem brother," Lana said. "First of all, this is not how you behave in the wild. You gotta let out that inner beast."

"I don't even know if I have one."

"Sure you do. Everyone does. You just need to let it out. Come on, who's the man?"

"Lana I…."

"You are! That's who!" The two started running again. "You're the man!"

"Who's the man?"

"You're the man!"

"Who's the man?"

"You're the man!"

"Who's the man?"

"You're the man!"

"I'm the man!" Lincoln starts sprinting and finally catches up to Lana. The two then piled on each other and started rolling down the hill. Then they got up on their feet again.

"That was….BANANAS!" Lincoln shouts. "I've never felt so alive! I should've gone outdoors a long time ago! Let's go wild!"

"Now you're talking bro!"

Next, the two began swinging on a vine doing the Tarzan yell. Then they landed back at the banquet and Lincoln felt his stomach growling. He went back to the buffet table, but found that all the food was gone.

"Hey little bro!" Luna came by. "Me and Harv were about to have a little jam session. Wanna join?"

"Well, I don't know. I mean I'm not sure if I…..okay."

Later, Luna is rocking with a handmade guitar and Harvey has a ukulele. Lincoln was sitting there watching while his stomach kept growling.

"Come on, bro!" Luna encourages. "Let out the inner beast!"

Lincoln got up from his seat and lets out a ferocious roar, like a lion. Everyone stood there stunned.

"Wow! Never heard that one before! Yeah! Go wild!"

Everyone cheered and Lincoln felt very proud. But then his stomach began growling louder and louder. He still tries to keep his hunger and sanity under control, but then…

"AAAAAAAAAAHHHH!" Lana lets out a loud scream which surprised everybody.

"Lana! What's wrong?" Lori asked.

"Something just bit me!" All the others stare at her with an uneasy look. "What? Why are you looking at me like that?" Lori pointed, telling her to look down. Lana then looks down at her feet and sees that her brother Lincoln is biting her leg. "Uhhh…...Lincoln? You're biting my leg."

"No I'm not."

"Yes you are."

"No I'm not."

"You're still doing it!"

Lincoln then realized what he just did and lets go of Lana's leg.

"Lincoln!" Lori said sternly. "What's gotten into you?"

"I don't know! I'm sorry! I don't know what came over me!"

"Well then why did you bite me?"

"Isn't it obvious?" Fee steps in. "It's because you are his dinner."

"What?"

"Don't you see? He was trying to eat you!"

"You're acting crazy," Lynn interrupted. "Lincoln's our brother. He'd never want to hurt us."

"Well your brother has become a cannibal. It's only a matter of time before he becomes completely wild. He can not stay here. He belongs with others more like him. On the cannibal side of the island."

Lincoln loses his self control again and starts seeing everyone as food.

"Look, I'll prove he doesn't want to eat us," Lynn intervened. "Come on Lincoln. Do I look like a snack to you?"

"Yeah….."

"See, I told you he doesn't….woah, woah, woah, wait, what you just say?"

"Oh yeah." Lincoln goes feral again like a lion about to eat.

"He's getting that feeling again," Lola worries.

"Let's make like cheetahs," Harvey suggested. "And RUN LIKE THE WIND!"

Everyone runs for their lives as Lincoln starts chasing them like a wild animal. The girls and Harvey try to hide behind a nearby tree.

"Guys!" Luna asked. "What's wrong with Lincoln? He's acting crazy!"

"I don't know!" Harvey exclaimed. "I should've known it would only be a matter of time before one of us contracted a disease and then passed it on to someone else! Human bodies are just not designed to survive in this environment! DO YOU UNDERSTAND!? HUMANS JUST CAN'T SURVIVE!"

"HARVEY!" Lola slaps Harvey in the face with her glove. "Sorry, but you were getting hysterical."

"Thanks. I needed that."

"Look," Lori interrupted. "I don't think Lincoln has any kind of disease. I bet he's just getting really, really hungry."

"That would make sense," Lisa theorized. "I suppose that a lack of food has the tendency to make people go insane."

"That explains why he bit me," Lana remembered. "Did anyone notice that he didn't eat a single thing at the banquet?"

The others recalled back and then realized their mistake. "Oh," Luan said. "I guess we forgot to leave food for him."

"Well that's just because we couldn't find a pizza plant," Leni answered. "Once we find one of those, he'll be eating like a mouse in a cheese shop."

"That's a pretty good idea Leni," Lynn said. "Except for one teeny tiny little problem."

"What's that?"

"THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS A PIZZA PLANT!"

"What? Why? I've planted tons of them in the backyard. I even sing to them to help them grow better."

"Leni," Lana groaned. "You can't just bury things, sing a goofy song, and then expect it to grow into some magical plant that makes the things you buried. I mean, if that worked, do you know how many tennis ball plants I'd have around the yard right now? Boy I sure love chasing tennis balls!"

"Lana," her twin sighed. "You've been hanging with the animals too much."

"Okay everyone calm down!" Lori ordered. "All we need is a way for Lincoln to get some food. Once he gets something to eat, he might go back to normal."

"Good idea," Leni said.

"But how are we gonna find him any food?" Lola asked.

"Maybe some of my friends can help," Harvey suggested.

"That might work."

Harvey lead the others to a nearby tree, where they found one of Harvey's closest friends. "Dade!"

"Harvey!" The rabbit shouts with delight. "Thank heavens, you're here!"

"What's going on Dade?" Harvey asked.

"It's awful! The tree is infested with these parasites! And they've been eating all the food on this island!"

"Speaking of food," Leni adds. "You wouldn't happen to know where we can find any pizza plants, do you?"

"What? That's ridiculous! I've never heard anything so absurd. Why would you even ask that?"

"We need it for our brother," Lana answered. "Lincoln didn't get anything to eat at the banquet and now he's gone crazy in the head."

"We're hoping that finding him some nourishment will return him to his normal state," Lisa further explains.

"Dade, you have to help us!" Harvey encourages. "I'll tell you what, the Louds can help take care of the parasites, and you can help me find food for their brother."

Dade finally gave in. "Anything for you Harvey! And to get rid of those wretched parasites!"

"Okay. We'll split up," Lori ordered. "Lana, Lola, Lisa, Lucy, you guys stay here and take care of these parasites. The rest of us will go with Dade and Harvey to go find food for Lincoln. We'll meet up with you shortly after."

"You got it big sis!" Lana salutes. Everyone else took off, leaving the little sisters alone to deal with the parasites. The kids began climbing up the tree through a large tunnel. "Well, looks like we better get the job done."

"Just how big are these parasites anyway?" Lucy wonders.

"Considering everything else on this island," Lola guessed. "Probably larger than life."

Just then, they saw a nest of giant parasitic tree eating worms right in front of them.

"No kidding. These helminths are as massive as an adolescent vombatidae." Once again, no one understood a word that Lisa said. "These parasites are as big as a wombat."

"How do you suppose we get rid of them?" Lucy asked.

"Perhaps if we could destroy the habitat they seem to be coming out of. But what can we use?"

Just then, Lana saw a pile of coconuts right next to her feet. "Hey! Maybe we could throw these at the nests so they'd go away!"

"That might be crazy enough to work. Let's give it a whirl."

Everyone picks up a coconut, but as soon as Lola touches one, she began to shriek. "Aaahh! Nobody told me these coconuts would be hairy!"

"Lola," her twin argues. "What did you expect them to feel like? Silky pillows?"

"Perhaps."

"Well now is not the time for complaining. So buck up and throw!"

She grumbled. "You owe me big time for this."

The kids began tossing coconuts at the parasites' nest until it's completely destroyed. Once it is, they began to proceed. Only to find another nest right in front of them.

"Uh, oh." Lucy gasps. "More parasites. Better get to work."

"Aw….why can't I throw something clean?" Lola complains. "Like antibacterial soap or something?"

"Oh wah!" Lana groaned. "Do you ever stop whining?"

Once again, they began throwing coconuts at the nests. Once they were destroyed, the kids proceeded. Next was not only 3 nests, but Lucy then began to spot some carnivorous condors. "We'd better watch out for those condors."

"Hey," Lana suggests. "Maybe we can fling some coconuts at them!"

"That might work," Lisa confirms.

So they began throwing again, and the coconuts ended up hitting their wings, knocking the condors to the ground. The kids continued to throw coconuts at both the condors and the parasites' nests. Afterwards, they proceeded to the next platform.

"Lola," said Lana. "If you're gonna complain about having to throw these coconuts, I don't wanna hear it."

"You know?" Lola said. "As much as I want to complain, there's something about throwing these coconuts I actually like."

"Really? That's a sudden change."

For the final time, the kids destroyed all the parasites' nests and the tree was saved. Afterwards, they went into a dark cave.

Once they came out, they found they were at a platform high above the ground. They also met up with Claire and Piri Piri.

"Good news guys!" Piri said. "We found the tree parasites' primary colonies!"

"You call that good news?" Lola groaned.

"Well, the good news is that we found them," Claire states. "The bad news is that they're breeding like crazy! And we need to stop them, pronto!"

"That's easier said than done," Lisa states. "There appears to be quite an army of those parasites."

"That's where you come in. We gathered all the dragon fruit we could find. Those parasites absolutely hate these things."

"Dragon fruit?" Lana asked.

Lola shrugged. "At least it's not coconuts this time."

The kids were getting ready to throw, but Lisa stops them. "Hold it!"

"What is it, Lis?" Lana asked.

"This is gonna have to take careful precision and planning."

"What did you have in mind?" Asked Lucy.

"Glad you asked." Lisa wrapped an extra strong vine to a couple of trees, creating a gigantic slingshot. "By calculating the angle of trajectory, and determining the durability of this vine, thus creating a…."

Lisa turns and sees her sisters looking bored and unamused.

"You're not getting this, are you?"

"Mmm-mmm." The kids shook their heads.

Lisa groaned. "Okay, let me put it to you this way. 'We use this to throw dragon fruit, and it brings big boom-boom to parasites' nests'. Got it?"

The girls nodded.

"Good. Let's proceed."

Lana loads the dragon fruit into the slingshot while Lola and Lucy were busy aiming.

Lisa was guiding. "Okay, more to the left. No I meant my left. Little more. Up. Down. That's perfect. Now, on my mark."

The girls prepared to launch.

"Ready…."

"Aim…."

"FIRE!"

The girls let go of the slingshot and the dragon fruit was launched into the air. They watched as it began to hit the ground and destroy the nests.

"Whoo!" They cheered.

Harvey and Dade came into the scene.

"Guys!" Harvey cheers. "You did it!"

"Harvey! Dade!"

"I assume that you have found some form of nourishment for our male sibling unit?"

"If you're talking about food for your brother, no we haven't," Harvey answers.

"And apparently," Dade adds. "We used up the last of our remains getting rid of those parasites."

"Great!" Lola groaned. "Now what are we supposed to do?"

"Well we did find the rest of your sisters," Harvey states. "Dade, you go with Claire to see if you can find them. We'll meet you at the end of the canyon."

"You got it Harvey!" Dade solutes.

Claire went with Dade to go find the rest of the Loud sisters, while the remaining ones went with Harvey and Piri Piri. However, one sister stayed behind.

"Aren't you coming with us, Lana?" Lola asked.

"Oh yeah. I was just thinking about those poor creatures down there. I'm not used to seeing animals getting hurt," Lana lamented. "Come to think of it, do you know how many people we've seen probably get hurt?"

Lola waves her hand down. "Eh, I'm sure they're fine."

"Come on," Harvey said. "Let's get going."

The kids followed Harvey through a dark cave.

The little Loud sisters are at the top of a canyon with Harvey and Piri.

"Have you seen your brother lately?" The female bird asks.

"You mean Lincoln?" Lana replies. "Oh yeah, he's down there."

"I mean, have you seen his condition? It's making me very uncomfortable!"

Just then, they saw Lincoln at the bottom of the canyon, jumping out of a bush with a crazed look on his face. "You guys look delicious tonight! Would you like to come down for dinner?"

Through Lincoln's vision, his sisters, Harvey and Piri all looked like different food.

"This isn't good," Lucy replies.

Lola agrees. "We're hosed."

"Looks like we're gonna have to get across this valley to the cave on the other side if we want to catch up to the others," Harvey observes.

"That appears to be easier said than done," Lisa states.

"Yeah," Lucy agrees. "For all we know, Lincoln could be waiting to pounce on us at any moment."

"Don't worry," Harvey assures. "As long as we stay above the ground, we should be okay."

"And just how are we supposed to get to the other side?" Lola asked. "In case you haven't noticed, we can't even fly!"

Lana then got an idea. "I've got it!" She then pulled out a pile of giant leaves. "We could use these leaves to hang glide over the canyon!"

"Well someone's full of good ideas today," Harvey said in admiration. "Okay, all we have to do is get across this canyon and avoid falling to the ground or…..well let's just say you don't want to know what could happen."

"Right," The girls all said.

With that, the girls each grabbed a leaf and waited for a breeze. Once there was one, the jumped off the cliff and hang glided. Meanwhile, a wild Lincoln was trying to catch up to them, but they were just too high in the air.

"You know, this is actually pretty fun," Lana said. "I almost forgot I'm afraid of heights." She then heard a snarl. "But I think I found something new to be afraid of!"

The kids saw that Lincoln was able to jump higher and catch up. He was about to pounce on Lana until he got knocked in the face with a mango.

"Get away from my twin sister!" The mango came from Lola, which made her brother fall to the ground. "I think I'm getting the hang of this throwing fruit thing."

Finally, the kids reached the end of the canyon. "We did it!"

"Whew!" Harvey sighs with relief. "If we hadn't stayed above the ground, I think we might have been goners."

"Yeah," Lana said. "I'm getting kind of worried about Lori and the others being down there all alone." Then she saw the other sisters (including Lily) coming out of a cave with Fee and Foo. "Okay I'm a little less worried now."

"I don't get this," Lynn said. "Lincoln's our brother. How come he keeps trying to eat us?"

"I'm afraid your friend Lincoln's predatory state is finally awaken," Fee explains.

"What do you mean?" Leni asked.

"Okay, your brother eats meat, right?"

"Yeah? So?"

"So meat comes from living things. And right now he's in a cannibalistic state. And when cannibals want food, they hunt for it."

"How primitive," Lisa rolled her eyes.

"No! You're wrong!" Lana cried. "Lincoln loves us! He would never wanna eat us! I know he's in there! We can't just turn our backs on him now!"

Lana prepared to go back, but Fee tackles her. "Lana! Face it! Your brother is a lost cause! Unless we all want to be food, I suggest we beat it!"

"But….."

"I'm sorry Lans," Luna said.

"We have no other choice," Lori added.

"Okay…." Lana started to follow her siblings, but not before looking back at her brother one last time. Once all the others left, Lincoln took note of that.

"Lana? Guys?" Lincoln started to regain his sanity. "I can't believe what I almost did. What's happened? What's wrong with me?" Lincoln was starting to become overwhelmed with guilt. "I'm….I'm a monster! I just wanted to have some fun, and….and now…...my family's in danger! They're not safe as long as I'm around! I gotta get out of here!"

Lincoln ran off while his sisters walked off feeling quite upset, knowing that they might have lost their brother forever.

"Aw, man!" Lana groaned. "What have we done? First we get lost on an island and now Lincoln's turned into a cannibal. It's all our fault."

"How is it our fault?" Lola asked.

"We got mad at him for smashing the boat. He wouldn't be in this mess if we had just forgiven him in the first place. He was sorry."

"It's okay, Lans," Luna consoled. "At least we're still together."

"I know. But what are we supposed to do?"

"I'm afraid there's nothing left we can do," Lisa states. "Except head back to camp."

Will the Louds ever get off the island?

Will they ever see Lincoln again?

Stay tuned and find out
