Hey Yo! NerdRyuu here and here we are.

The ending of the Past Arc

Yes, the few Louds left are dying and The remaining one will become The Last Loud!

I didn't received any questions this week, so let's straight to the chapter!

DISCLAIMER: I do NOT own The Loud House


My right arm is broken, and I'm in front of me there's a monster with super strength that wants to kill me. I'm surrounded by a burning village and I'm completely unarmed. If I didn't knew better, I would say that this was a final boss fight.

Blight ran in my direction, swinging a right hook in my direction. I dodged left punched with my left hand. As it isn't my dominant hand, it went a little weaker than I expected, making next to nothing to him.

I made a step backwards and pulled from my boot a combat knife I had stored for a emergency. That knife was going to be my only good defense against this foe. I rushed forward and swung the knife upwards, slashing his blue turtleneck.

He tried to punch me, but I saw it coming, and ducked, and tried to stab his stomach from below. I had success in that, but his skin was so though that it hardly penetrated it.

The places where I need to aim for have to be the most vulnerable parts, maybe those parts can be penetrated… The articulations.

I jumped away another punch and tried to stab his elbow. Blight shouted when the blade of the knife dug deep into his elbow. Luminescent green goo gushed from his wound. I hastily slashed the blade out the wound and as he was recovering, used my opportunity to stab his jaw from bellow.

The blade went up to the hilt, Blight made a gargling sound as this scream combined with his weird blood.

That moment, I got a little distracted, and he grabbed my arm. He removed my arm with the knife from his jaw and made a strong punch.

He hit me in the head, making me fly. When I slammed down in a pile of rubble, my head was buzzing and my vision wasn't straight. I tried to lift myself up, and I felt, in my right shoulder, a metal round bar sticking through it.

I couldn't feel almost anything from my right shoulder down, and that rod stabbed through me didn't helped. That's when I finally understood that my right arm was gone for good.

I grabbed the rod and pulled with all my strength. The pain was excruciating and doing so made my knees wobble a little.

When the rod came out, my right arm wobbled limply. I lifted the rod up like a sword in Blight's direction. He grinned at me with his teeth glowing with his blood covering his mouth.

I made a war cry and ran in his direction, branding the rod as my weapon. Blight rushed in my direction.

I used a little pile of rubble to jump off it and stab down at him. He had put his hand in front. The rod went straight through his hand and it also stabbed Blight in the chest, pinning his hand in place. He roared in pain.

He reached for me and was able to grab. My right arm.

I forced myself out and as he pulled back, my arm came out clean off the socket. I bit my tongue in pain. I had sacrificed my right arm to make his other hand occupied.

I pulled out my pocket the knife and stabbed him in the cheek, punched again, and-

He shot me. He had let go of my arm and had in his hand a sawed off shotgun, which he shot.

By a miracle, he had missed my head by inches, but I also could feel hot liquid streaming down the side of my head. I looked left. My ear was resting in my shoulder.

He had blown the side of my head. Probably reaping all the skin there, along with my ear.

The adrenaline made me feel next to no pain, but the shock and surprise froze me for a moment, making Blight have time to free his other hand, grab the knife off his face, and stab me in the chest. I felt air coming out my lungs. Blood came out from my mouth, and I realized that he had punctured one of my lungs. He smiled with his bloody green teeth. He kicked my shin, breaking it. I fell forward. I looked back to my leg, the bones were exposed, and the pain de me feel seek. I felt something hot in my hand. It was a piece of wood that was being burnt from the inside out, probapbly was piece of one of the huts. I grabbed it, ignoring the burning sensation.

I looked up as Blight grabbed me by the neck.

He lifted me up, suspending me in the air, he had a smile in his bloody face.

"I told you." He spoke with a tiny hint of gargle in his voice. "You're fighting God."

I said nothing. Just shoved the piece of burning wood in his face. He screamed in pain, releasing me, but due my broken leg, I feel to the ground.

When Blight looked back at me, half of his face had been burn off, revealing a glowing skeletal face with few strands of also glowing green muscle. He looked like a radioactive Two-Face.

Like if God wanted to stop the fire of the village spread away, it started to rain.

"Your antics are starting to annoy me." He spoke walking up to me.

"Do…" I spoke weekly. "…Your best… Motherfucker." I taunted. He growled and stomped on my back. The knife, still in my chest dug even deeper, and I almost feel it coming out my back. I looked up, as Blight lifted his foot again. He was going to crush my head. And with his strength, it would be as easy as crushing a watermelon with a bat.

That was it. At least, I got some time for Luna, Lana and the slaves.

It's the end.

The sound of bullets made me get out this corridor I made in my mind. I looked up. Luna and Lana were running in our direction, shooting rifles at Blight. This distracted him.


"Left Luna!" I shouted running to the right. Luna ran to the left, shooting on Blight. That son of a bitch was like a bullet sponge, every hit just made a small green hole in his skin. His blue turtleneck was almost completely gone, he had a metal round rod stabbed through the right side of his chest. That was the best Lincoln had done to him.

Blight growled it was obvious that our bullets were just a annoyance for him. Shit, what are we going to do.

That's when Luna run closer to Blight and grabbed something on the ground. I identified it as a shotgun.

That was her chance. I continued to gun down at Blight as Luna ran behind him and pulled the rod off his back. The freak roared. "GET AWAY FROM MY BOYFRIEND!" She shouted. Luna got the tip of the shotgun ide the hole that the rod left, and shot it.

His chest exploded open, revealing his insides. They were green. Luminous green. I smiled. We did.

But Blight didn't fell. He turned around and grabbed Luna by the neck.

"NO!" I shouted. Blight squeezed Luna's neck until a loud snap could be heard.

Luna's body went limp. Her eyes became faded. Blight let her go. She fell by Lincoln's side.

Like the world slowed down, I ran up to Blight as turned around to look at me. I ran and slid down between his legs, grabbed the rod Luna had pulled off his chest, and jumped up the back of his knees, making him kneel, climbed his back, and stabbed down the rod through his skull. It went through his skull, down his jaw and stopped when it hit the ground.

Finally, Blight stopped. He didn't fell because of him being impaled to the ground, but he was finally dead.

I was breathing heavily. The burnt village around me. The rain pouring down, cleaning all the evil that infected that place.

I jumped off Blight and ran straight to Lincoln and Luna. He was caressing Luna's face with his only arm. My heart was soaring, I got my helmet off to look at them with my own eyes.

"Li-Linkie…" I muttered to him. He smiled and looked at me.

"She is beautiful right? It looks like she's only sleeping…" He spoke with great difficulty. My eyes started to tear up, but it would be hard to notice, as my tears got disguised in the rain.

"Please… Please don't go…" I spoke, my voice was breaking.

"Don't worry." He spoke softly. "I love you Lana. We all love you."

"No… no… please… no… don't leave me alone!" I cried, gently putting my hand on his cheek. He smiled once again.


I looked up at Lana and smiled. She had grown so much. She became such a woman.

"You won't be alone." I spoke with a smile. "Never."

"I love you..." I spoke. Behind Lana, Looking at me, I saw them. Everyone. Lori, Leni, Luna, Luan, Lynn, Lucy, Lynn, Lola, Lisa, Lily, our parents, Clyde, Stella, Zack, Rusty, Liam, Bobby, Ronnie Anne, Sid, Sam, Carol, and even my little Lyra, being held by her mother. Everyone, by Lana, smiling. "…All." I closed my eyes and muttered what would be my last word.

Live


Lincoln died.

Luna died.

Lola died.

Lori died.

Leni died.

Lily died.

Lucy died.

Lisa died.

Luan died.

Lynn died.

I'm alone.

Completely alone. Lana Loud was completely alone.

No.

She won't be alone.

In that moment, I decided that Lana wouldn't live alone.

No.

In that moment, I killed Lana.

I abandoned my name.

In that moment, I forgot who I am.

That's the story.

The story of how I became The Last Loud.


N/A: Yeah, some of you may have deduced The Last Loud's Identity already as the options became smaller, but here we have the confirmation.

Lana is The Last Loud

I had her as The Last Loud since the first stages of conception of the story, and never changed. But seeing in retrospective, I think I should have made her more prominent in the beginning of the story.

Luna's death I wanted to be quick and sudden, she a neck snap was perfect for it.

And Lincoln's death being so F*cking brutal was in part to really show how dangerous is Blight, and also to show how Lincoln is persistent, being more and more injured and just continuing fighting.

And to be clear, Lincoln never had a chance in defeating Blight alone.

The fight was planned to be way longer actually, with Lincoln having his leg broken and Luna and Lana having a longer role in the fight, but when I started to write, I decided to cut the fat and let just the essential or the most cool stuff in.

And also, I never strived for realism in the fights on this story, I work with the rule of cool when it comes to fighting.

I say that because this chapter marks a change in direction for the rest of the story, being more focused in action and cool imagery.

Well, I think that this was everything I wanted to say for this chapter, so...

If you want to ask something or has something to say, go ahead and comment, I'll try to respond everyone in the next chapter.

I also have a Twitter, where I post updates, make some announcements and just pist fun stuff, @ryuu_baku

See you in the next chapter, be good.

Bye.
