Chapter 1: The Start of a New Journey

Our story begins with the eldest Loud sisters walking around the mall looking for some gifts for Lily's birthday party in a few weeks, with Lori having driven them out there while the rest of their family was keeping Lily busy.

Lori: "(smirks) So are you guys literally ready for game night?"

Leni: "(smiles) Totes: I'm, like, hoping to break my losing streak this time around."

Luna: "(chuckles) Good luck with that, though here's hoping that isn't just a product of a world of pure imagination."

Luan: "(shrugs) Well either way, at least she won't be BORED. (chuckles) But seriously: I'm more excited to take part in the Lynn-Sagna that we're having tonight."

Leni: "(gasps) OMGosh, YES: Dad's cooking is, like, totes the best."

Lori: "(snorts) Okay I literally can't argue there. Speaking of food though, it's nearly lunch time, so let's see what they have at the food court."

Luna: "(nods) I'm cool with that."

Luan: "(smirks) Yeah, I think that's MALL right. (chuckles) Get it?"

The other Louds just shook their heads in exasperated amusement...which soon turned to slight embarassment upon running into another group as they rounded a corner, knocking each other to the ground as they did.

Lori (currently getting off the ground): "(gives a nervous chuckle) Oh, sorry about that: we should have literally been watching where we were going."

mystery girl with long flowing dirty blonde hair that reaches her waist, a yellow shirt that reveals her shoulders, and navy blue jeans: "(shakes head) No, no: we're just as guilty as you. (blinks as she takes in Luna's appearance, and smiles) Oi, nice threads there, mate: always good to meet another girl of culture. Oh, he name's Ginny, by the way."

Luna: "(smirks) Thanks, dude, but really, culture has nothing to do with it. After all, I don't care what people say: rock and roll is here to stay. (nods to ) Same to manga and anime, apparently...not that I'm judging: you pull it off the look nicely, dude. Oh, and for the record, I'm Luna."

mystery girl with a white shirt with a blue collar and a red bow, a pair of red and white gloves, a blue skirt, and red knee high heels, as well as hair that was dyed purple that was done up into two buns: "(blushes) Thanks. I'm Kimiko."

Lori: "(smirks) I'm Lori, though maybe we ought to literally meet up at the food court so that we can do this round of introductions properly.

The others nodded and headed to the food court. After chatting some more, they learned that the fat boy with red hair, black sweatpants, and a blue T-shirt was named Brad, the brown haired girl with a Amazon figure - i.e. you could tell via her lean muscles alone that she could hold her own in a fight with a pixie cut, a purple short sleeved shirt, and light orange shorts was called Anna, the light blonde haired boy with a black shirt and blue jeans was named Fred, the girly girl with wavy auburn hair that came down past her shoulders as well as black high heels, pink blouse, and a light blue skirt was named Zoey, the boy with dirty blond hair, a white shirt and black pants was named Mason, and the brainiac with black glasses (like the ones that Lisa wore), a blue and white striped shirt, black jeans, brown hair in a short ponytail was named Quinn. After a while though, Quinn started to look around with a nervous expression.

Quinn: "(gives a sheepish grin) I'll, uh, need to catch up with you in a bit: my drink went right through me."

Mason: "(shrugs) No problem: we'll be here when you get back..."

several minutes later...

Lori: "(frowns) Quinn has literally been taking a while: maybe we should check up on her."

Anna: "(nods) Good idea."

Lori, Luna, Luan, and Anna head to the bathroom...only to horrified gasp as they see Taylor roughing Quinn out in the area.

Taylor: "(gives a dark laugh as she continues to beat up Quinn) You could have avoided this if you just did my homework for me like I asked."

Quinn: "(gasps out in desperation) Please: no more..."

Taylor: "(snorts) Beg all you want: nobody's coming here to save you."

Anna: "(grabs Taylor and tosses her aside) Who you calling nobody?"

Luan: "(smashes a pie in Taylor's face) PIE don't care WHO you are... (sprays the area between Taylor's legs with her squirting flower) ...but you better SPRAY that we don't catch you doing something like this again."

Luna: "(nods as Luan and Anna continue to teach Taylor a lesson) They'll be fine for now. In any case, are you...? (gasps as the hair tie in Quinn's hair comes undone and her glasses fall to the ground, revealing that Quinn was actually fairly attractive without said glasses and with her hair down) Whoa, girl: even with the scars, you are one fine lady."

Quinn: "(shaking in despair) No, please, don't look at me. It's my fault that she was harassing me like that. Really, it's like my step-father always said, if I wasn't so worthless, so weak, so ugly, I'd never be receiving as many scars as I have. Please, just... (gasps as Lori suddenly pulls her in for an embrace) Wha...what are you doing?"

Lori: "(looks Quinn in the eyes with a kindhearted smile) Something that a wonderful girl like you literally needs. After all, no one should feel that they don't literally deserve a little kindness...and if this step-father of yours seriously thinks that you should be bearing scars, then I happen to know a few people who could literally give him a little...talk. Just please: don't close yourself off: you might think that you're ugly, but from what I've seen, you're literally a diamond in the rough, inside and out. (holds Quinn close as she breaks down sobbing in her arms) Shh, it's okay: you're safe here: just let it all out."

After they had finished eating, the group ends up exiting the mall.

Luna: "(smiles) I don't know about you, dudes, but I don't feel like parting ways just yet, as I'm glad that we've had this time to spend together."

Ginny: "(nods) I know how you feel, mate: it doesn't feel right for the fun times to end."

Lori: "(chuckles) Alright then: all in favor of going somewhere else to hang out, say aye."

Everyone else: "Aye."

Mason: "So, uh, where do you guys want to go?"

Leni: "Well, there's, like, a costume shop we could check out."

Kimiko: "(smirks) Not going to lie: I'd be interested in seeing that..."

Lori: "(looks at her watch...and winces) As fun as the idea of visiting a costume shop sounds, we literally need to leave, as we still need to be getting the gifts for our sister's birthday party back home before it literally gets too late."

Ginny: "(smirks) No problem: we can go ahead and help you guys out on that front."

The other non-Louds just nod in agreement here.

Mason: "(quirks an eyebrow after they reach the house) So this is where you live?"

Luna: "(smirks) Yep, this is Casa de Loud alright. Feel free to look around, but don't break anything, or our folks will be a mad, mad world all their own."

Lisa: "(smiles as she comes down the stairs with Lily in her arms) Greetings elder siblings, and I see you brought some companions with you."

Quinn: "(stares at Lily with wide eyes alongside the others) Oh...my...goodness..."

all of the non-Louds: "She's so CUTE!"

insert scene of the non-Louds fussing over Lily here ^^;

Lisa comes over and starts poking Brad, much to the annoyance of the boy in question.

Brad: "(gives a flat look) What are you doing?"

Lisa: "(hums to herself) Fascinating: how is it that one so young could acquire so many lipids around his abdominal region?"

Mason: "(blinks) Uh, what?"

Quinn: "(shrugs) I'm pretty sure she's asking how is it that a teenager could be so fat."

Brad: "(huffs) I'm big boned, and either way, I don't appreciate you poking my stomach like that..."

Lisa: "(gives a blank expression) I'm just performing my basic duties as a scientist."

Brad: "(rolls his eyes) Whatever..."

Anne walks around the house, whereupon she stumbles upon Lynn's room.

Anne: "(whistles) "I see we have a fellow strong woman in this household: hope that I can test myself against her at some point."

She then sets about testing herself with Lynn's dumbbells and other exercise equipment.

Kimiko ended up doing some exploring of her own, whereupon she stumbled upon the room of Lola and/or Lana.

Kimiko: "(whistles at what she sees) Wow: I thought that beds like this only existed in fairy tales..."

She then froze as she felt El Diablo wrapping around her leg.

Kimiko: "(screams) Get it off of me!"

Quinn would likewise walk around the house for a bit, whereupon she stumbles upon Lincoln's room. Upon looking around the room a bit, she finds an issue of Ace Savvy among Lincoln's belongings.

Quinn: "(smiles a bit) Nice to see I'm not the only one who likes this stuff..."

Quinn then sat down to take a look at the comic in question.

Mason: "So what do you want to do?"

Lori: "(smirks) Well aside from that costume shop, we should literally check out the makeup shop, as I need to stock up on some stuff."

Zoey: "(shakes her head in amusement) As tempting as that is, we should probably think about going to Dairy Land so that the boys can have a bit of fun of their own."

Bruce: "(nods as he comes down the stairs) Sounds good to me. Anyways, I'm good to go if you are."

Quinn: "(frowns) Aw, I just got started on this comic."

Luna: "Just bring it along."

Later we see Leni, Luna, Luan, Anna, Fred, Zoey, Mason, Kimiko, Quinn, and Ginny get into Vanzilla, with Brad attempting to get in afterwards…only to get stuck due to his large size. Lori attempts to push Brad into the vehicle with her shoulders, hand, and face, which she finds difficult to do due to Brad's large body.

Lori: "(scoffs) You should really consider going on a diet."

Lori's attempts to push Brad into Vanzilla come to a stop when he suddenly farts in her face.

Lori: Ugh, seriously? What have you literally been eating?

Brad: "Oh some roast beef, some chicken, a pizza..."

Lori just rolled her eyes before getting back to pushing Brad into the vehicle.

Leni: "(winces) Hey, that's, like, my foot you're stepping on!"

Luna: "(grunts) Dude, those are my ribs you're crushing. You should really consider to start running at some point to take care of some of that weight of yours."

Eventually Lori was able to get Brad into the vehicle and started closing the door...only for his fat to get in the way. Eventually she forced the door closed with her bare hands before getting into the vehicle herself.

Lori: "Everyone okay back there?"

Zoey: "(groans) I feel like my kidneys are getting crushed."

Anna: "(growls) I REALLY don't like that I can't move right now..."

Lori would then turn on Vanzilla and drive off.
