And this is another chapter for the Jungle Louds, sorry for the delay, I had to get a new IPad and some things at work were hecktic because of the holidays.
After Bobby regains consciousness he finds himself in a cave, being sniffed by a tiger, to which he screams in fear after coming to complete senses he opens his eyes seeing a tiger's nose, and screams in a high tone, then Lori steps in and says to the tiger: "Seriously, like literally leave him alone." She turns to the young man, "It's okay. They won't hurt you." She assures him, in a conforming tone.
The young Latino man was still in shocked, seeing a number of tigers in a cave, of all sizes from big and small. Even a few cubs playing, to which Bobby asks openly: "W-where am I?" The teenage jungle girl answers: "You're literally in a cave. And this is my foster family's cave." The Latino young man asks: "Foster family? What they do tiger researcher or something?" Lori replies with her hands on her hips: "No, these are my foster family." She describes the tigers.
Bobby was confused by all of this, he didn't know what to make of it, then all of a sudden Leni and Lana appear at the cave entrance, the second eldest sister says: "Hey Lori, got a second?" The eldest jungle girl replies: "Sure, what's up?" Lana answers: "Lincoln thinks it's best we meet the new humans. But in style, he says." Leni and Lana notice Bobby and with clever smiles thye think they know what's going on. Lori quickly replies: "Wait, no! It's not what you think, after all we just met." Lana with a slick smirk says in a sarcastic tone: "Sure…" she spoke acting confidently thinking she knows what's going on, Leni at first knew but then she looses track, and asks: "Wait, what are we talking about again?" She asks which causes the eldest and twin to slap their faces in embarrassment.
At the camp, Ronnie Anne was still explaining about the jungle boy Lincoln and his sisters, while Morag was resting with cucumbers on her eyes, trying relax, but can't with Ronnie Anne's rambling, so she gets up and walks towards the family. Ronnie Anne still talking: "…Guys, imagine what we can learn from them?" Then Morag steps in and says: "Mr. Casagrandes, you are here to study gorilla, not chase in some childish girlish fantasy." The Latino girl was shocked and felt insulted by they words and says: "Fantasy?" She follows the Scottish woman to correct her, "I didn't make them up! Lincoln and his family are…" then the white haired boy lands in between the two as Ronnie Anne and Morag were shocked to see this. "Real." The Latinos girl spoke softly finishing her sentence.
Then the other Loud sisters came in their own fashioned, Lily, Lisa and the twins Lana and Lola came in swinging on vines, but Lily holding on to Lisa. Lucy came flying in being carried by a large number of fruit bats able to support her weight. Lynn bursts through the bamboo forest breaking them easily as toothpicks. Luna and Luan came from climb down trees, Leni, Lori and even Bobby riding on a tiger came to the camp, which shocks the Casagrandes, Angus and Morag.
Maria and Rosa rushes to Bobby, hugs him and, his mother says: "Bobby, are you alright?" His grandmother also asks: "You're not hurt are you?" The young man replies his mother and abula: "No, I'm fine. But I was saved by Lori here." Lori says to them: "Nice to meet you." Leni also introduces herself: "Yes, its so tots to meet you."
The whole group was shocked to see them speaking fluent English. CJ says to his Cousin Ronnie Anne and asks her: "I thought you said they were feral." Then the eldest Latino sibling adds: "Yeah, but aside from that, they're wearing the cutest animal skin clothes." She presses her hands against her cheeks, completely loving the outfits.
Carlos says to his children: "Now, now there's a rational explanation." Lisa walks up and answers: "Yes. You see our father was raised in the jungle by a troop of gorillas, our mother was born in civilization, and we were raised by both our parental units, we were also raised by various animals to help us survive in thr jungle and develop personalities." They found it interesting, especially Angus who walks up to Lincoln and asks: "Excuse me lad, your father wouldn't be Lynn Loud wouldn't he be?" The feral boy answers: "Yes. Why do you asks?" The Scottish man smiles and says to him, hiding his joy: "Oh, nothing. It's just a wee something, nothing important." He tries to hide his joy, Morag on the other were nervous, she even puts on a nervous smile hiding her discomfort.
Hector says to his son Carlos: "Hard to believe, we came for a gorilla expedition and we got feral children instead." Carl adds also interested: "Yeah, bonus." Maria speak: "Yeah. We can learn form them and they can teach us." They all were excited to learn from each other.
In the tent, Angus and Morag are discussing regarding the Loud family, Angus begins with a happy if not excited tone: "Can you believe Morag? The Loud family of Loch Loud! We thought they were lost at sea, when during the storm over Africa." Morag still hiding her discomfort replies: "Yes…so exciting." The Scottish man continues to speak: "Indeed, once we reeducate them, we can bring them back to Castle Loud. Ah! Bless me bagpipes!" As he exits the tent filled with joy, Morag now drops her act with anger and speak to herself: "I can't believe this. I thought that storm and being lost at sea would've finished the bloodline. Only to find out that they survived. I need to find a way to get rid of them. Luckily my ancestors learned of the secrets of the dark arts even that of foreign relics of power. Including the African legend the Heart of the Jungle." She held a book of legends even the powerful objects, she wickedly smiles preparing to find a way to end the Loud family bloodline once and for all.
Elsewhere at night, Haiku was sleeping in her hut, but she was rustling and turning, for within her subconscious she was experiencing a nightmare. She saw the temple where the Heart of the Jungle lives, a shadowy figure takes the heart and uses its power to control the creatures, the Loud treehouse burning the animal families attacking the Loud family. She wakes up from the nightmare, panting sweating, she even saw her bed coated in sweat. She steps off her bed and leaves her hut.
In her master's hut where he sleep, Haiku shakes to wake her master. Haiku says to her master: "Master? Master, wake up!" The old master walks up, yawning and asks his apprentice: "What is it Haiku? What's wrong?" The Japanese girl answers: "Master I had a vision. I saw the Heart of the Jungle, taken from the temple, and I saw the Loud family attacked by the animals of the jungle especially by their foster families." The old master recognizes this seriousness of this vision. He gets up and says to her: "This vision you had my apprentice was of an event that is too come. You must warn the Louds before it is too late. Now it'll be a long journey so, you need to gather some food and supplies." With that, Haiku gets her bag, as her master gathers for Haiku some food and a jug of water for the road, and some mystical objects to help protect the Heart of the Jungle even further.
As the shawoman appreciates puts the supplies into the bag she continues to asks her master: "Master, how will I get to the Loud family?" The shaman answers: "Take the main road, then go by memory. You may need to speak to the animals. Now go quickly." With that, Haiku begins her journey through the wilderness and dents jungle at night, even though some people would've wait till morning, but with the Loud Family in danger, time is not on her side.
The next morning at the Loud family tree house, Lynn SR gathered fruit, and made breakfast. As the family gathers for breakfast, Rita says out loud: "So how was everyone's yesterday?" Leni answers: "Oh yeah, we met the Casagrandes." The rest of the Loud siblings widen eyes, and tried to shut her up. Lynn SR questions: "You did what?" Lola answers for her less intelligent older sibling: "Oh, nothing! Nothing at all!" Rita knew her children lying so she says to them: "Come on kids, tell us the truth." Lucy says: "Sigh. We went to see the new comers called the Casagrandes." Lisa adds: "Yes, and apparently they too possess a big family like us." Lana finishes: "And Lincoln rescued one of them, from a hoard of baboons. And I think he likes her as does she like him." Lincoln groans in annoyance: "Lana!"
Lynn SR says to his children: "Well even though you were told not to see the, I'm glad you did." He spoke in a happy and understandable tone. Rita adds to the conversation: "I think it'll be nice to meet these new comers. And I too wish to meet them." They all agree to it.
At the camp, we begin a montage of the Casagrandes teaching the Loud family, while Rita knows the civilized world has changed in her absence, Carlos uses a projection and a picture man standing up with has hands behind his back, to which Lincoln mimics the man. As for Rosa she is teaching Lynn SR how to cook with the jungle foods. Frida uses Lori, Lynn and Lucy as models for her art and in return she teaches them how to work in art that comes in many forms. Lori begins to develop feelings for Bobby, granted she was told about survival of the fittest but Bobby too was developing feelings for Lori too showing expressions of love. As for Lily and Carlitos are becoming friends, she plays with him in the jungle petting with the creatures great and small.
As for Lynn JR she is introduced to sports from Carlos who brought some equipment for sports including a bike which Lynn JR rides though the jungle tree limbs even preforming extreme stunts that she does every day in the jungle. As for CJ, he and Luan begins to practice their act, CJ with his pirate act and Luan with Mr. Coconuts her ventriloquist dummy. As for Hector he teaches Luna how to play the guitar. As for Lisa she and Carlos began to do research regarding the jungle and its environment and animals.
As for Rita she is bonding with Maria who talked about why Rita chose to stayed in the jungle for she fell in love with Lynn SR and with their children growing up in the jungle raised by his animal friends developed different personalities based off the animals they were raised by.
Angus himself been talking with Lynn SR and Lincoln about their noble heritage. They were told they're the long lost heirs of Loch Loud and castle Loud. As for Lana and Lola are interacting with Carl who tries to woo them, but apparently he's not they're type of male.
The time passes by three days, Morag is growing impatient and says to the Casagrandes and Angus: "We've been here for three weeks and you've been teaching them and having tea and cakes with them! You came to study gorillas, not a bunch of former feral children." Angus replies to her: "True, but we're trying earn their trust first." Morag fed up with this and says: "Oh, bugger! This is nonsense! I'll get these children to talk." As the Loud Siblings emerges from the jungle.
The woman walks to the boy with white hair and his blonde and brown haired sisters, she holds the picture of the gorilla and says to them. "Look, we need you to take us to the gorillas." They turn from her to Angus and the Casagrandes and move pass her, her frustration was now at the boiling point. She walks off as the Loud family still learns.
In the tent where the projector Lincoln keeps seeing the different photos till he finds one where a man on his knee presenting flowers to a woman. This intrigues Lincoln for he may find a way for he to impress Ronnie Anne.
Elsewhere in the jungle Haiku finally reaches the Loud tree house but nobody's home so she decided to stay until they return home.
As for Morag, she wonders the jungle passing through trees, thick vegetation and mud till finally she reaches a cliff's edge as it rains on her as she stood underneath a tree stood over the edge of the cliff too. Morag yells to the high heavens: "I HATE THE LOUDS!" Thunder clashes as she exclaims. "I had hope that the bloodline being reduced to savages, but it's not enough, I must go further. I need to sever the bloodline once and for all." She comes up with a plan, then she turns around and journeys back to the camp, opening a personal satchel.
Inside the satchel was an old book, she opens it and discovers a legend of a jewel of a Persian king, the City of Kalarish and in the city is the Heart of the Jungle. The jewel possess the power to command the jungle creatures both great and small as well as the blood descendants of Kalarish. The legend speaks of the city's location but, the ink wore off so exact location and coordinates have been withered away. "(Grunt in frustration) So close and yet so far. But wait, the Louds been here their whole lives. They know this jungle like the back of their hands."
With that she walks up to Lincoln and asks him: "Excuse me, Lincoln. May have a word with you?" The feral boy answers: "Sure, what do you want to know?" The Scottish woman asks him: "Do you know the location of the Heart of the Jungle?" Lincoln replies to her: "Sorry, I cannot, it's a secret to protect it." Morag asks him again: "Oh, please I promise not to tell." He nods no, still refusing to tell her. So with that she leaves with a smile, but when she turns around she has an angry face.
She asks the other Loud sisters, the eldest siblings but none of them knew of the Heart of the Jungle nor it's location. Morag knew she couldn't relay on the baby for information because well…she's a baby. As for Lucy and Lisa they're too smart to trick but the twins are the only ones who she can trick.
Morag asks the twins in a polite tone: "So, have you two heard about the Heart of the Jungle?" Lola feeling suspicious and asks: "Why are you so interested in it?" The woman answers: "Oh, no reasons, just wish to learn more about your home." With that the tomboy twin sister answers: "Well know where it is. But will you promise to keep the secret." Morag replies with a solum vow: "I swear to it." With that the twins takes them to ruin city of Kalarish.
Back at the Loud Family tree house, Haiku was still sleeping till Lucy and Lynn JR, wakes her up. Lucy asks her friend: "Haiku, what are you doing here?" The Japanese gothic/shaman apprentice girl answers: "Lucy, Lynn I had a vision. I saw the Heart of the Jungle, taken from the temple. And someone took it." The gothic sister was shocked to hear this, and speaks: "Gasp! Are you sure?" She nods yes and the athletic sister asks the two friends: "What's the Heart of the jungle thing?" Lucy answers her sister's question: "It's an ancient jewel from a Persian city." Haiku continue to explain about the jewel: "And it holds the power to control the jungle and its creatures and its subjects. If Morag gets it there's no telling what can happen." She fears the worse.
With that, the Scottish woman enters the hidden staircase alone, passes through the traps without setting them off. Till finally she finds the Heart itself.
Back up at the surface, Lucy, Lynn JR and Haiku riding on one of Lynn's rhino friends, they dismount from the large animal, Lynn asks her twin younger siblings and asks: "Lola, Lana where's Morag?" The princess twin answers: "She's down there." The tomboy twin sister answers: "She said she wanted to know the jewel the Heart of the Jungle." Lucy says sensing the danger: "We need to stop her! She is carrying the…" she stops in mid-sentence for she climbs up the stairway, to see the feral children and says: "Ho, hello. What brings you too…" She's Interrupted by Lynn tackling her, pinning her to the ground and says: "Where's the Jewel woman?!" To which the Scottish woman replies acting innocent and confused: "I don't know what you're talking about."
As the two gothic girls look through Morag's satchel to try to find the Heart of the Jungle but it's not in it. Haiku was confused she saw the vision and says: "Wh-I thought-my vision." She stuttered, Lynn JR gets off of Morag, turning to Haiku and says: "Maybe you got it wrong." Lucy conforms her friend, Lynn turns back to Morag and apologizes: "Yeah, sorry about that." The Scottish woman replies as she gets up and dusts herself: "It's alright. No harm no foul." The Loud sisters and the Japanese apprentice leaves returning to their home, unknown to them, Morag wickedly smiles for she did have the jewel but not in her satchel but in her back pocket. She spoke softly to herself: "The power of the jungle, in the palm of my hand." She will use the jewel but not now, she'll use it to strike when the Louds are at their most vulnerable. Until then, she'll study it and will use its power for terrible things.
