Chapter 51: Actions.

"… Thank you Mark, this is Katherine Mulligan reporting directly from the Royal Woods 7 Action News Channel, we have an urgent notice to alert all authorities and civilians in our Local town, a compromising audio has been leaked that features known personality of the world of pageantry and female beauty: Fernando Dubois, allegedly describing to a young boy the action of direct sexual assault of a minor contestant: 11-year old Lola Loud, the source of the audio is of unknown origins, but now we have the exclusive capture of it.

Audio has been censored for broadcasting purposes, we'll only feature the relevant part: "… yes. Linky. I. confess. to. touching. Lola's. delightful. p&%$#. with pleasure"

Our hearts and biggest condolences go for the Loud family for this tragedy, we advice all other families to stay alert and avoid engaging with this man at ALL costs, the future of their daughter's career is not worth the cost of degeneracy, this is Katherine Mulligan reporting at 6:00PM, back to you Mark"

There was silence, all 5 siblings, and the mother currently watching the stream stood there for what felt like minutes, a lot of things had to be processed, but then.

- … That man is still in Lola's room! - Lori was the first to speak up.

- … we h-have to do something! - Lisa, surprisingly, was second to talk.

- I'm sorry guys, I should have stopped this earlier, I knew he wasn't good news! - Lincoln declared to his mother.

-… Lincoln, go save your sister! - Rita commanded.

- Aaaaand done! - Fernando happily announced the end of Lola's routine for the day.

- How did I do? - Lola was panting heavily, having just learned the art of juggling rings, she definitely wasn't expecting the artsy treatment to combine to well with her typical ribbon act, but now she actually felt ready to perform the act as part of the grand finale.

- Lola sweetie, I think you are finally ready for the big spectacle, just remember Gil DeLily's book "Breeding greatness", volume 2, page 231, "stand tall to break the fall", whenever you feel like losing the battle, having a good attitude is key to overcome the insecurity, first, act as if you were confident, then you will actually feel the confidence, est-ce clair? - Fernando gave his closing speech, ready to depart.

- Yes Fernie, thank you for everything! You really didn't need to stay so late, I'll make sure to recommend you further - Lola expressed her gratitude for her coach, feeling accomplished herself at not just surviving, but acing his regime - What are you planning on doing now? - Lola asked, knowing that they probably wouldn't meet again.

- Well, after reporting to the logistics team, I believe it is finally time for me to take a break, I am thinking of seeing my wife back in Paris, my boy is about to be born, I most certainly wouldn't want to miss that! - Fernando cheerfully declared to his contestant.

- Go for it Fernie, you deserve it - Lola replied with a warm smile, legitimately happy for her coach.

- Oh Lola, merci, let's have a final hug! - Fernando was also touched by Lola's attitude, no doubt one of the most mature personalities that he had ever trained within her age-range, he was sure that she would grow big if she kept on like that.

Without any further ado, he crouched to Lola's height and gave her one last, warm hug.

*SLAM*

- YOU, GET AWAY FROM MY SISTER! - Lincoln blasted the door open, putting up with the enraged act as he feigned ignorance.

That fake rage became positively real once he saw the scene being displayed in front of him.

Without a second thought, the brother pushed the man with a surprising amount of strength for his build, making the executive hit his head on the wall, using this moment of distraction, he forcefully grabbed Lola's hand and dragged her out of the room, ignoring her protests.

Then, he closed the door leading to Lola's room and blocked it with Rita's master key, ensuring that Fernando had nowhere to run.

- Lola is safe mom, please call 911! - The albino proceeded to signal to Rita to call the police, which she immediately followed suit.

With Lola still being forcefully dragged, Lincoln went downstairs to meet with the rest of the alarmed siblings, Lori being the first one to spring from the couch directly to check on Lola.

- Lola! Are you ok, please tell me, oh I'm literally so ashamed right now, I can't believe I didn't see through him before, I'm sorry for joking about that before, I'm sorry for everything - Lori began anxiously checking for any bruises in Lola's face as she continued to cry in pure distress.

- Ouch, let me go, w-whats happening? - Lola was now confused at everyone's action.

- Don't worry older sister, we have that man properly trapped within your room, the police should be here in T-minus three and a half minutes - Lisa was next at checking for her sister.

- But why, I don't get it!? - Lola was still confused.

- My baby, please don't hide it anymore, remember to always tell me when someone touches you in your private zone! - Rita said next, hugging Lola from the side.

- Ok OK quit it mom! - Lola was now on the verge of asphyxiating from the combined heat of all the people around her.

*Smack*

Yet another visitor blasted through the door, rushing frantically for the sight of Lola.

- Where is my daughter! - Lynn Sr. was now officially in panic mode, before he could see her hidden under the mountain of people around her, Lily too, was behind her dad, having arrived alongside him, but being unable to understand the reason behind her father's overreaction, she was also crying inconsolably.

Right after recognizing her, the father of eleven also knelt down to approach the group hug, crying happy tears by seeing her daughter ok.

Not long after, the police arrived, went upstairs quickly, blasted the room were the suspect was hiding and promptly arrested him.

Lola could only watch as this innocent being was being taken over by force, away from his family.

- Now you're safe Lola - She then heard the unmistakable voice of the person she once idolized with her entire being, which prompted her to focus on him, away from the scene.

He was Lincoln Loud, and he looked horrible, eye-bags visible from a kilometer away, dirty clothes, bad breath.

And a foul, nauseous, murky shade of green in his once bright eyes.
