Disclaimer: I don't own The Loud House
The next day had come to 1216 Franklin Avenue. While everyone put on a show that things where normal. However, the fact that something was dreadfully wrong was painfully obvious. Lincoln was in his room when the door flung open.
"What's wrong with Luna?" asked Lola demanding.
Both twin and Lisa entered the room.
"I don't know what you're talking about." answered Lincoln nervously.
"Don't lie to us brother unit." stated Lisa.
"We know something is wrong with Luna." added Lana.
Lincoln let out a sigh.
"How do I explain this?" asked Lincoln to himself.
"We're only enough to understand." stated Lola.
"No you aren't." muttered Lincoln.
"Please, tell us." requested Lana.
Lincoln knelt down in front of the twins.
"Look, Luna is...sick." said Lincoln.
"What does she have?" asked Lola worried.
"Is is the flu again?" asked Lana worried.
"It's worse than that." answered Lincoln.
"Is it Infectious mononucleosis?" asked Lisa.
Lincoln and the twins stared at Lisa.
"Mono. The kissing disease." explained Lisa.
Lincoln shook his head while the twins where grossed out.
"No." answered Lincoln.
"Then then us." requested the twins in unison.
"She's got an sickness, but it's okay. Me and the older sisters are helping her. Luna will be fine. I promise." said Lincoln.
Lincoln hugged the twins who left accepting his explanation. However, Lisa wasn't as swayed. Lincoln quickly gathered the older sisters into Lori's room. He arrived with Lisa.
"Lincoln, why is Lisa here?" asked Lynn.
"I refuse to accept anything other than the truth about the condition of our sister unit Luna." answered Lisa.
"We did consider bringing her in earlier." admitted Lori.
"Please, do not try and "sugar coat" the truth." requested Lisa.
"Like, does Lisa even know what beer is?" asked Leni.
"An alcoholic drink fermented from starch material. Commonly, barley malt is used along with hops, aka Humulus lupulus, which is used to produce a bitter flavor." replied Lisa.
"I guess that answers that." said Lori.
"Sufficed to say, I can deduce from that question Luna is suffering from chronic compulsion and uncontrolled consumption of alcoholic beverages, in this case beer, leading to addiction and health deterioration." mused Lisa.
"Huh?" asked Leni confused.
"Street name: alcoholism." noted Lisa.
"Oh yeah." confirmed Leni sadly.
"Please, catch me up to speed with the situation has it has played out to this point." requested Lisa.
The older Loud siblings caught Lisa up to speed.
"Normal I shun innate human emotions but..." began Lisa.
Lisa began to sob.
"It's okay Lisa. We'll help Luna and everything will be okay." cooed Lincoln gently.
Lisa sobbed crying and rubbed her eyes.
"Yes. I apologize for that foolhardy outbreak of emotions." said Lisa.
"It's cool." shrugged Lynn.
"Lisa, you might be a genius, but you're still only four. You shouldn't hide your emotions." said Lori.
Lori turned to the others.
"That goes for everyone. If you're feeling sad then go ahead and cry. It's literally not healthy to suppress your emotions." said Lori.
The others agreed with this.
"Thank you." said Lisa.
The prodigy adjusted her glasses.
"Are Luna's issues limited to her drinking?" asked Lisa.
"She might be snorting drugs." answered Luan.
"Oh my. That is most serious." gasped Lisa.
"Unfortunately, we have no way of proving it." sighed Lincoln worried.
"I assume that is why our parental units are unaware of the situation." hypothesized Lisa.
"Yup." confirmed Lynn.
"Once we can prove it we'll tell them." added Lucy.
"That might be too late." noted Lisa.
"If we just accuse her then she can deny it." noted Lincoln.
Lisa thought for a moment.
"Addicts can be manipulative." mused Lisa.
"Luna wouldn't manipulate us!" declared Lincoln.
"Like, I wouldn't mind a manicure." said Leni.
After taking a moment, the group refocused.
"The Luna we all love would not manipulate us, but Luna is no longer that person." said Lisa.
"Addiction is a disease. It changes you and makes you do thing you normally would never do." agreed Lori.
"Exactly." replied Lisa.
The others shared worried glances.
"Well siblings, I am more than happy to join you in helping Luna." said Lisa.
"Glad to hear that." said Lori relieved.
"I am glad we're all in this." said Lincoln.
"Except for the twins." noted Lynn.
"They're too young." noted Lucy.
"Not to mention Lily." said Lisa.
"She's a baby." shrugged Lincoln.
"Luna, we will save you." thought Luan.
Luna had left her home. She went to Brandon's and hung with him. They then went to his room and relaxed there. By relax, they sat together drinking beer in Brandon's room. They mostly talked about rock. As she did, Luna felt a bit let down. Brandon noticed and got a bit concerned. He decided he had to act.
"What's wrong?" asked Brandon.
"Nothing." answered Luna flatly.
"Come on. I can tell you're not telling me the whole story." noted Brandon.
"This beer ain't giving me a buzz like it used to." confessed Luna.
Brandon broke out laughing.
"I don't whats so funny." huffed Luna.
"I was worried something big was wrong." said Brandon.
Luna did chuckle a bit.
"I guess it is silly to get all upset by this." admitted Luna.
"Your tolerance is raising." explained Brandon.
Luna nodded her head.
"You could drink more..." began Brandon.
Brandon got up and went to his closet.
"Or I could hook you up with something different." proposed Brandon.
"That sounds good to me." shrugged Luna.
Brandon pulled a bottle out of his closet.
"Tanqueray." said Brandon.
"That's gin!" exclaimed Luna.
"Give me a second." said Brandon.
Brandon departed leaving Luna alone.
"Geez, I've never been here alone." mused Luna.
Luna rubbed her knees.
"Brandon is nice though." said Luna.
Luna smiled a bit.
"I don't get why the others don't like him." said Luna.
Luna now frowned.
"It's totally bogus!" declared Luna.
Outside the door, Brandon smirked.
"Brandon is cooler than any of them." spat Luna firmly.
"I'm too good." thought Brandon cockily.
"I do wish he'd get back." muttered Luna.
"That's my cue." whispered Brandon.
Brandon entered with two glasses.
"Good timing!" declared Luna.
"I'm a master of making an entrance." shrugged Brandon.
Brandon put the glassed down and pour the gin into them.
"Here ya go." said Brandon.
Brandon gave Luna a glass and she drank.
"Damn!" cried Luna.
"Stronger than beer." noted Brandon.
"You can say that again." agreed Luna.
Both returned to talking about music as they finished their gin.
"You want blow?" asked Brandon.
"Of course." answered Luna.
Brandon pulled the cocaine and paraphernalia out. He then cut the cocaine into lines.
"For you." said Brandon.
Luna took the straw from Brandon and snorted the cocaine.
"I can party forever!" exclaimed Luna, in a British accent.
"Man, you really like this stuff." mused Brandon.
"Fuck yeah!" cried Luna.
Brandon chuckled.
"Right where I want here." thought Brandon please.
Luna and Brandon chatted for a bit more. Luna finally had to go though she wasn't thrilled to be leaving. Brandon gave Luna a vial of cocaine before she left so she'd have some whenever she needed it. Luna pocked it and thanked Brandon. She then departed. As she was walking back to her home, a familiar van pulled up.
"Oi! Funny running into you here!" declared Chunk.
"Yeah." agreed Luna.
Where ya headed?" asked Chunk.
"Home." answered Luna.
Chunk opened the passenger door.
"Need a lift?" asked Chunk.
"Geez. This isn't sketchy at all." joked Luna.
The two both chuckled.
"Thanks." said Luna.
Luna hopped into the passenger seat and closed the door. Chunk then drove off.
"So where ya coming from?" asked Chunk.
"Hanging out." answered Luna.
"With friends?" asked Chunk.
"Yeah." answered Luna.
"Cool." replied Chunk.
"Yup." agreed Luna.
A minute of silence passed.
"So...I heard you're in a new band." revealed Chunk.
"Who the hell told you that?!" asked Luna loudly.
"A bird told me." answered Chunk.
Luna laughed sarcastically.
"Don't bullshit me." spat Luna.
"It doesn't matter..." began Chunk.
"Yes it fucking does!" screamed Luna.
Chunk was taken aback.
"Tell me!" snapped Luna.
Chunk tightly gripped the steering wheel.
"I can't." answered Chunk.
"Pull over." said Luna bitterly.
"Luna..." began Chunk.
"Pull over!" demanded Luna aggressively.
"I..." started Chunk.
"If you don't I'll scream you're abducting me!" declared Luna.
Chunk stopped and Luna got out.
"Listen. It honestly doesn't matter who you got that from." started Luna.
"I am only..." began Chunk.
"Shut up." spat Luna coldly.
Chunk felt his heart breaking.
"Leave me alone." ordered Luna, who stormed off.
