Spells and Louds
Chapter 25: Gender bent Luck part 3
The Loud brothers and parents were shocked to see Linka, alive and well, and no longer wearing the .squirrel suit "Linka! You're okay!" says Lynn Sr "We were worried sick sweetie!" says Rita, Linka is still hiding behind Gwen "Really?" asks Linka "Yeah!" "We thought something bad happened to you!" "We're really sorry sis!" the brothers start to plead
Then Loni starts to stir, he regains consciousness and gets up "What's going on and why does my face hurt so much?" says Loni, then he spots Linka through the bars "Hey! It's Linka! You're okay! You got us all worried there sis! Now we can go home and be a family again" says Loni, then he gets confused "Wait, where's the suit is? You know what it doesn't matter, we still got more you can try" says Loni
"Loni!" the brothers yell "What? I thought you guys were worried that we might not have good luck anymore?" asks Loni, they all turn around to see Linka start to cry, Gwen hugs her for comfort "Linka! It's not like that!" "We weren't gonna send you back into the suit! We swear!" "Please come home sis!" "We're really sorry!" the family starts to call out to her
"How can I trust all of you?!" yells Linka, everyone remains silent "You treated me like I was nothing! You kept me out of the house! You made me wear that stupid suit! And now you have more of those things! Didn't you know how much I was suffering in there?!" yells Linka "I have actually" says Levi, they all turn to him in shock "What?" asks Linka
"I first noticed you getting extremely uncomfortable when we went to Aloha beach after Lynn's game, I was going to see what was going to happen if the outcome was to continue, I was sure to give my observation, 2 to 3 weeks, but I must've got side tracked by all of my Nobel Prize wins, forgive me Linka, I was a fool to believe in such superstitious nonsense" says Levi as he looks down with regret
Linka starts to build up anger "You got sidetracked! You're supposed to be the child prodigy! And you got sidetracked!" yells Linka, then she falls to her knees and cries "Linka?" asks Lars "We're sorry" says Leif, Lincoln and Jordan approach the sobbing white haired girl and bring her back with the others, where they all proceed to give her a group hug
The alternate Loud's could only watch as their sister/daughter is getting comforted by people they don't know, then Loki's anger builds up "It was Lynn's fault! He made her go! He called her bad luck!" yells Loki "He's right! This was all my fault! Just let everyone else go! And take me instead!" says Lynn Jr, Neil breaks away from the group hug and approaches the holding cell
"Yes, it is true that you were the one who started it, but all of you got involved quickly and put your little sister in danger, and the result child neglect, you may all seem innocent, but you're all accessories to a crime" says Neil "I know we're stylish, but that doesn't make sense" says Loni, then Leni tries to attack him "Shut up! Just shut up!" yells Leni, Neil had to hold her back "Leni! Stop!"
Then Martin arrives "Alright, let's get this thing over with, Linka if you come with me" says Martin, Linka nods and follows her into the interrogation room "Linka!" "Where are you going?!" "Sis!" but she ignores them and closes the door, the only thing the alternate louds can do is wait, just then the door opens and coming into the police station was the female version of bobby
"You gotta be kidding me" says Lori "Where is he?!" yells Bebe/Roberta Santiago, she then sees her boyfriend "Loki!" says Bebe "Babe!" says Loki "Oh Barf!" says the Spellman's and Louds, the teenage couple hug each other through the bars, then Bebe breaks the hug, and slaps him in the face, Hard! "How could you do that to Linka?! Your own sister!" she yells
Loki touches where his girlfriend slapped him "Babe? Bebe?" asks Loki "Don't you ever call me that! In fact don't ever call me again Loud! Because…. We're through! I'm breaking up with you!" she yells, the others just watch as Loki starts to beg for her forgiveness "Please Bebe! I didn't mean it!" begs Loki, but she turns away from him, crossing her arms and crying
"Ou of my way!" yells another voice, they all turn to see Ronnie Anne's male counterpart "Where's Linka?!" yells Ronaldo/Ronnie Santiago, then he sees the loud brothers in a holding cell "You!" he walks towards them, but he's being held back by his sister "What did you do to Linka?! Answer me!" he yells, the loud brothers didn't know what to say, and then Ronnie sees the parents
"And what have you two been doing? Nothing! All you did was let your daughter suffer from them! You are the worst parents ever!" yells Ronnie "Ron! Please! They're not worth it anymore! Right now Linka needs us!" says Bebe, Ronnie calms down "Where is she?" he turns to Neil "In the interrogation room, giving her confession for the court" says Neil
Ronnie sighs, as he turns that's when he sees Lincoln, Lori, Leni, Luan, Luan, Lynn Jr., Lucy, Lana, Lola, Lisa and Lily, along with everyone else "What is happening here?" asks Ronnie, Lincoln approaches the two Santiago siblings "I think you two need to sit down for this" says Lincoln, soon after explaining who they are and why they're there, Gwen gives some hot cocoa to Bebe and Ronnie
"Wow, that's almost unbelievable!" says Ronnie, then Bebe looks to Lori "You look kinda pretty, beautiful to be exact" says Bebe, Lori feels awkward at her words "Thanks, I think" says Lori "Do you have a boyfriend?" asks Bebe "Yeah, his name is Bobby Santiago, he moved to Great Lake City to be with his family the Casagrande's" says Lori "That's what we were gonna do" says Bebe
Loki looks in shock 'she was gonna move!' Loki says in his thoughts "Did you to ever got back together?" asks Bebe "We did, Lincoln was the one who made us a couple again" says Lori as she ruffles Lincoln's hair "That's nice, don't break your relationship, it's not easy finding that special someone" says Bebe, Lori sits next to Bebe and they hug
But then Lori breaks the hug, when she hears Bebe sniff her hair "Okay! This just got awkward!" says Lori "I'm sorry! It's just you smell so much nicer than Loki!" says Bebe, Ronnie looks at Lincoln "so, my girl version?" asks Ronnie "She's tough, nice sometimes, can be friendly" says Lincoln "Kinda like me" says Ronnie, then he notices the girl next to Lincoln
"And you are?" asks Ronnie "Jordan, friends call me girl Jordan" says Jordan "Weird, because we have a girl Jordan too, but I don't think she looks like you" says Ronnie "Okay, but my boy version almost looks like me?" asks Jordan "Yeah! He does" says Ronnie, then turns to Lincoln again "Hey man, thanks for helping Linka, I could've done something, but they got in the way" says Ronnie as he looks towards the loud brothers
Lincoln sighs "I just couldn't let he suffer more, I may have been through a lot of painful stuff, but what Linka was put through, is far more worse than mine" says Lincoln, Ronnie looks at the loud sisters "So you forgive them?" asks Ronnie "Yeah, I do, but trust is another thing, at least I still have Leni, Luna and Lily as my siblings" says Lincoln
Then the door opens again "Who is it now?!" says Neil, coming in, was Clyde's girl version "Linka!" yells Claire McBride "You have got to be kidding me" says Luna, then Claire sees the loud brothers "You sick monsters! She's your sister, why would you do that to her!" says Claire "And you!" she points to Loki "I don't know what I ever saw in you!" Claire walks away "Okay" replies Loki
"Hey Ronnie, is Linka alright?" asks Claire "She's fine, she's in the interrogation room right now" says Ronnie "Okay, hang in there" says Claire "Trying" replies Ronnie, then Claire sees the Loud sisters and Lincoln, but then she looks at Lincoln "Wow, you look just like Linka, only more boyish and kinda cute" says Claire, Lincoln is shocked at what she says
"Whoa, there sister, he's with me" says Jordan sounding annoyed "Take it easy, I was just saying" says Claire, then the interrogation room opens and coming out was Martin and Linka "She confessed everything, we have all the living proof we need to bring this to court!" says Martin "What!" "Linka!" "Why?!" "We're Family!" the Loud's start yelling
"You're not my family! Not anymore!" yells Linka, then she gets tackled by Claire "Linka! I'm so sorry I didn't help you, I should've known something was wrong, I'm so sorry!" cries Claire, Linka pets her back "It's okay Claire" says Linka, then Bebe and Ronnie approach her "You feeling okay little loud?" asks Bebe "I'm fine, just a little shaken, that's all" says Linka, then she sees Ronnie
"I …. I …. I'm sorry!" says Ronnie as tears roll down his face, Linka approaches him and gives him a hug "its okay Ronnie, I know you tried to help me, at least some people cared" says Linka, then Bebe and Claire join in on the hug, Lincoln and the others could only smile at the touching scene, then Neil and a couple of guards open the holding cell and cuff the Louds
"Linka! My Child!" "Linka!" "Please! We're Sorry!" "We didn't mean to!" "We won't do it again!" "We're innocent!" they all start crying as they are being led into an armored van, the officers close the doors and drive off, Linka sighs "Now what?" asks Claire "We still have to wait until court comes, then we can see our justice done" says Lincoln
"In the meantime, you can stay with us" says Neil, Linka nods in response, Claire looks concerned, but she understands, then Leon and Sergei arrive, with a pet carrier, though Sergei's face is heavily wrapped in bandaging, except for his eyes and nostrils "What the hell happened to you?" asks Neil "This thing happened!" Sergei hoists up revealing baby Leon Loud
"This kid is dangerous!" says Sergei "took me almost 1 hour and 15 minutes to yank him off of Sergei's face" says Leon, Neil looks at the angry baby, who then starts crying for his parents "This baby needs some rehabilitation" says Neil, Linka could only watch as an officer takes her once baby brother away "There's Donuts and Coffee" says Neil "Thanks!" replies Leon/Sergei
Later Linka says goodbye to Bebe, Ronnie and Claire, Linka then boards onto the side car of Lincoln's vulture with Jordan, they drive off, with Neil's Mercedes, Gwen's Mustang and Leni's Ford following behind, they were headed back to their Royal Woods, Soon Linka lays on her bed in Lincoln's room, she stares at the ceiling, wondering what will happen tomorrow
On the following day, in the alternate Royal Woods, at the Supreme Court of Justice, news reporters scramble to get interviews and comments from the now arriving loud family, Lynn Sr., Rita, Loki, Loni, Luke, Lane, Lynn Jr., Lars, Leif, Lexx and Levi all come out of the police van, wearing orange and chained to each other, while looking down in shame
Then Neil arrives in his car, along with him was Linka, Neil shields her from the press as they try to get an answer from her, they both head inside of the building, where they see the Loud family talking with their lawyer, who looks exactly like the lawyer of the louds from their world Damien Shaw, only the female version was Daniella Shaw "Okay, this is awkward" says Neil
It was time for the court case, a male judge ascends onto his seat "All rise for the honorable judge Michael Ackerman!" says the officer, surprisingly he looked exactly like his female version, well, except for the lack of hair on the top of his head, he starts the trial with Neil, who defends Linka "I would like to call on my first witness, Claire McBride!" says Neil
The interrogation with witnesses goes on smoothly, they were all willing to confess to what they saw, from Claire, Bebe, Ronnie, Boy Jordan, Liza (Liam), Zelda (Zach), Rosey (Rusty), Shawn (Stella), Principal Theodora Huggins, Alfred Johnson, Belle Grouse and almost everyone in royal woods, the lawyer of the loud's couldn't keep up with what was happening, they were losing
And finally, Martin arrives with the evidence, the squirrel suit, along with a box full of squirrel suits, this made the coach realize, that's where all of the backup mascot suits went, with all the evidence they need, the jury now sees the louds as guilty! As the court dismisses, Loni tries to approach Linka "I'm sorry Linka, I should've seen this coming, I guess I am a dumb loser!" says Loni
Deep down Linka felt bad for Loni, he was the dumbest in the family, but he still had a kind heart and an eye for fashion, Linka then hugs Loni, shocking everyone, Loni then hugs her back "I'm sorry it has to be this way" says Linka "I guess it's for the best sis" says Loni "He then breaks the hug and looks at Linka "Good luck with your new life Linka" says Loni "Thanks Loni" replies Linka with tears in her eyes
They all leave the court room, the sentences were settled Lynn Sr and Rita were sentenced to 10 years in prison, Loki, Luke and Lynn Jr will be sentenced to 8 years in Juvie, but once they reach adult age, they will be sent to an actual prison, Loni is to be sent to a mental hospital for 5 years, he needs his head checked, Lane is sentenced to 8 years in an asylum near Kansas City
The younger brothers will be sent to orphanages separately Lars is going to Philadelphia, Leif to Chicago, Lexx to Oregon, Levi to Louisiana and little baby Leon to an orphanage in New Jersey, the parents were devastated that their family was now broken, Linka just watches as they all are boarded into different police vans, but she does wave goodbye to Loni and he waves back
Linka was still at a crossroads, where would she go now, then Neil got down to her level "Do you wanna stay in this world?" asks Neil, Linka looks down in sadness, she is still haunted by memories of all the wrong doings her brothers did "No, I don't!" says Linka, Claire, Ronnie and Bebe overhear their conversation
"Do you wanna stay with me and my family?" asks Neil, Linka opens her eyes and looks at Neil with tears in her eyes "You mean-" "Yes, Linka, do you wanna be a part of the Spellman family?" asks Neil, Linka smiles and then hugs him "Dad!" says Linka as she cries, Neil hugs her back "Welcome to the family darling" says Neil, Linka's friends could only watch as Linka gets adopted
Linka then breaks the hug and sees Claire and the others, they approach Linka "I know we're best friends and that we would be best friends forever, but right now I need to find peace with my past, and I cannot be here to do it" says Linka "I understand girl, just call me sometime okay?" says Claire "I'll try" says Linka, she then turns to see the Santiago's
"Thanks for being an older sister figure to me Bebe" says Linka "Your Welcome Linka, and now you have three older sisters" says Bebe, they then hug each other "Take care Linka" says Bebe "I will" replies Linka, she then breaks the hug and turns to Robbie, who looks down in sadness and kicks the dirt, Linka approaches him, an awkward silence is in between them
"So I guess this is it" says Ronnie "Yeah, I guess this is it" replies Linka "I hope you'll be happy where you are" says Ronnie "I don't wanna see you hurt like that again Linka, and I'm sorry for all those times I bullied you" says Ronnie, Linka was touched at how much his tough heart cares, so she kisses him on the cheek and hugs him "Good bye Ronnie" says Linka "Smell ya later Linka" replies Ronnie and he hugs her back
Later Neil and Linka come out of the great gate, the portal closes behind them and they're greeted by the Spellman's who have already set up the decorations for the party "Welcome to the family!" they all cheer "Thanks everyone" says Linka, Lincoln approaches her "I guess we're roomies now huh?" says Lincoln "I guess we are" replies Linka
They fist bump each other "Linc Twins?" says Lincoln, Linka smiles "Linc Twins" says Linka, then they hug each other, the whole family then joins in on the group hug, welcoming the newest member of the family, Neil looks back at the great gate 'I wonder what other Loud universes are out there? I guess only time can tell!' says Neil to his thoughts
While that was happening, at a diner in Royal Woods, Carol is taking in orders, for customers, then the doors open "Hey there, just take a seat wherever you like" says Carol "I'll be with you in a sec" says Carol as she brings the sandwich and fries to a customer's table "Take your time little lady, I'm in no rush" says the stranger with a Texan accent
The stranger sits on the counter tables, Carol gets a pen and paper "Alright sir, what will you be having?" asks Carol "Apple Pie, one slice and Coffee, Black" says the cowboy "Okay then, it'll be a sec" says Carol "So, are you new here sir?" asks Carol as she gives him his coffee and pie, the cowboy uses his fork to slice a small piece of the pie and eat it, he then takes a sip from his coffee
"You can say that" says the cowboy "Well, you'll be happy to know that Royal Woods is a safe place, we got heroes here saving the day" says Carol "Is that so?" asks the cowboy, then Carol remembers something "Since you're new here, the diner has this thing in remembering our customers, we're a family friendly place" says Carol, she has a pen and paper "So, what's your name sir?" asks Carol
"McCree" he lowers his hat onto the table revealing "Jesse McCree" (Cue Overwatch Music)
