Helluva Loud Adventures.
"Aftermath, Confession, and Change."

(July 24. Camp Mastodon.)

Here we are, at one of the log cabins which belongs to Mr. Rinsler and he is surprised to see these cherubs here: Cletus, Collin and Keenie, and they have been given some blankets, cleaned and also something warm to drink, and they see the others glaring at them.

Luna has some bandaging on her wounds, and Lincoln is fine as well, he managed to recover after Velvet helped heal him, and he has some bandages on his wounds. They can sense some tension with the other group, and even the humans who are with them.

Leni then asks. "So, what the heck is going on here? Why are you three little things here and how did you get here?"

"Which is kinda weird" replied Millie. "I mean, they should be out there doing their weird job and helping keep people from dying through suicide and all that dumb shit."

Keenie then speaks. "Look, we'll tell you everything..."

"The spill the beans before we spill your guts!" yelled Luna, and then the others have their weapons ready, and even Lana with a shovel, and this scares the members of C.H.E.R.U.B, and then they explain.

Cletus. "Okay, so we had this issue where someone was gonna jump off the building because his life is meaningless since he had been fired from so many jobs, then we showed up and did the best we could and we managed to help that man find a new path and never give up on his dreams, and those dreams were to be an underwater explorer..."

"This guy?" Lincoln shows them the post. "He died when he went diving without the proper gear, his body was found being devoured by Hag fish." This makes the cherubs horrified, but then they regain their composure and try to go through with what they need to say.

Keenie. "After we did our job, we saw the prison where the man known as Lynnard is located, and seeing how demented he was, we thought that we should help him reform and then perhaps he wouldn't be of any trouble for anyone, even you guys. We were doing you guys a favor and stopping him from being the bad guy, but then things went terribly wrong."

Collin. "We felt something bad was gonna happen, and when we arrived, an explosion was made, but we made it in time to save him, but we weren't fast or strong enough to save the others, and so we made do with the man we saved and helped him get reformed, and so we brought him to the one place that brought back the best times in his head, Camp Mastodon, but far from the camp."

Cletus. "He came to, and we told him what we are, who we are and what we plan to do, and we helped him regain his sanity and make sure he was back on the right track, and we did the best we could to change his ways and make him into a better person and to stray away from what he sought out. His dreams may be fine, but he needs to think things and see how his life goes."

Keenie. "Took us a dang long time to help him, and we were maing progress and he was getting stronger and stronger each passing day. He was showing some good signs that he was changing and for the better, and we were ready to tell him that he needs to find his own path, away from the past... But, I think that triggered he and things turned bad real fast."

Collin. "W-We were lied to... He never did keep his emotions in line, he was playing with ys and then he attacked all three of us. He was waiting, biding his time for the moment to get what he wants, and he kept us prisoner and kept beating us up and we wondered where our associates from heaven were, and apparently he learned something dark to keep us from their eyes..."

"The pentagram in the basement of the cabin." They all look towards Detective Danny Q. StoneHeart. "We found it, and it was covered in blood and it seemed to emit some energy, whatever he did to make it work worked a little too well. Athena is there, and she has something to stop it from opening a portal, apparently it shielded the form of these little bastards, which means they don't know where these cherubs were the whole time."

This angers everyone and they all look to the three Cherubs. "Are you literally kidding me?! He tried to rape me!" yelled Lori.

"He already raped me! And he kept whispering how he wanted a god damn family!" Amanda cries, and so Michelle comforts her, and thankfully Amanda was safe, and nothing is gonna happen to her.

"He wanted the others dead!" yelled EveLynn. "Do you stupid little winged plush freaks even see what has happened? This all went down, because you saved his stupid life, and he wanted to do worse and get rid of the rest of us!"

"You try and reason with people to change, but you failed to even notice that not everyone can change, some of them, are just too lost in the head to be saved, and we nearly paid the price through your actions to help him, and you sure did help him" replied Caroline Linnaeus.

Angel Dust scoffs. "You fuckers helped him become stronger, cunning and be beyond dangerous, and when Lucifer finds out about this..."

"He will and we will have a meeting about this!" A light glows, and then Eliza appears, and this freaks out the cherubs. "So, this is where you three troublemakers have been. I should've know, you three started this and aided in the escape and sinister plans of Lynnard Loud."

Cletus then tries to reason with her. "Wait, you don't understand..."

"I understand clearly, you three just wanted to help remove a problem, but made things worse, and so much damned issues have been made. Lynnard Loud's mind was far off, and no longer part of him. The best idea was to allow him to remain locked up, or finish him once and for all, and they made the right choice to remove him before he did far worse to anyone in his way."

Keenie, Cletus and Collin are scared, and then Collin asks. "W-What are you go-gonna do to us?"

"Oh, not me. Her." She steps aside, and a small portal opens and coming through are the others members of C.H.E.R.U.B: Deerie, Rachel, Bea, Beau and Honey. "Hi there, so sorry that we couldn't find ya guys but... Well, things have been hard to search for ya, and also we had to send some other cherubs to do your jobs, sorry."

This makes Cletus, Keenie and Collin horrified, and then Eliza speaks. "Let us talk about what your punishment shall be for this misconduct of your job!" They were in for an earful from the archangel and the members of C.H.E.R.U.B.

The others can tell that this is serious and they wanna hear more about what happens next, though Lincoln wants to kill these three, then he looks out the window and he sees the fishing boat of Leonard is at the docks and the old guy is headed there as well.

Lincoln gets up and takes his leave, and so Luna and Loona do the same, and they see what he sees.

Lincoln, Loona and Luna then go over and see the old man packing his things, and then he asks. "Hey Gramps, leaving so soon?"

Leonard smiles seeing them. "Hey guys, just heading out now. After what happened, I don't think I should stay here, or even come back... Because, I don't think there is anything left for me here, in camp or your lives. After all, I made Lynnie who he is, when I never could've been there for him."

Luna then speaks. "Dude, we know it was your fault for not being there for that asswipe to make him a man or father that he should've been, but to leave and never come back is another. Why not just come by and visit often?"

Leonard sighs and so he explains. "That'll do no good for me. My whole choice and life, I thought I was doing the right thing and helping Lynn with his life, by letting him do what he must, but I never truly made the choice to help him and just... Let him go with the dream, which wasn't doing well for him. I mean, a family that big is crazy, and... I guess I never told him how the world works. I wasn't there for him."

"Also, word is that the whole thing that happened the other day has been spread out, and now the loud last name is once again tainted, by a delusional man who escaped and survived the prison blast and wanted to do heinous actions. Apparently Amanda Bright let the word spread through her blog, and now everyone around the country know, and you're Aunt Shirley and her brother have fled, they're not here anymore."

Lincoln nods. "We know, word of it was out but we didn't know our uncle and aunt had left. Where are they?"

"No clue, and that is what I wanna do... Look for them, and stay by their side till the end. Everything we have been through, the lives we had back then before what my son and his wife did are all gone. Best we leave things here, and just settle with something else." Leonard then unties the ropes from the docks. "I'll find them and then make a new living with them, because the loud last name is no longer a good stick to be around, not after all that have gone down."

They all understand, and nod and then Loona speaks. "Hey old timer, when you do find the others who are your kids... Head someplace where you'll be welcomed... The location, is Scotland."

The boat is already leaving, and when Leonard hears this he nods, and then he waves to them.

Lincoln, Luna and Loona wave back, and they watch as Leonard Loud departs from Camp Mastodon, and head out to find his two remaining kids, and to find a new and better life than sticking with what had happened, from the past.

"To be continued in the next chapter folks!"

A/N: So, now we know how Lynnard escaped, and everything is going down hard for those three cherubs, and farewell to Leonard Loud. They will never see him, ever again. I hope you all enjoyed reading this new chapter folks!
