The Loud House: A Broken Family- Chapter Nine: "My Name Is Hunter Zolomon. "


As Rita stood alone in the grocery store, she had no idea she was being watched by a mysterious presence, he watched her every move and couldn't take his eyes off her, of course by now we all know this is the royal woods killer, but with his new look, he knew no-one would ever suspect him.

He then took a deep breath and began to make his way near her, until a thought came across his mind, how exactly would he kill her again? Of course he wanted her dead for reasons but he had to make sure he went through with, no holding back, he then got the perfect idea and walked over to Rita and stood next to her and pretended to search for items in the vegetable aisle, he then dropped one right next to her as it hit her foot.

"Oh, sorry about that, I'm a very clumsy person. " He said as Rita picked it up for him and said, "That's fine, but you might not want to buy this brand. "

"Oh really? Why's that? " He said as he put it back. "Because they sell 'em cheap to you but end up cheating you with the taste, it's not very good. " Rita said as she looked for a different type of brand, she then picked up a different kind of tomato and said, "These are the ones you're going to want, well, they're the type I prefer. " She said as she shrugged her shoulders.

"Well thank you, I really appreciate that, uhh I didn't quite catch your name? " He said as he acted like he didn't know Rita.

"Rita. My name is Rita Loud. " She said hesitantly. "Well it was nice meeting you Rita, my name is Hunter. Hunter Zolomon. " He said as he put his hand out for a handshake.

At first Rita didn't know if she should shake his hand at all, for all she knew this could be some setup to get payback at her and the family, but with how nice he was Rita decided that it wouldn't hurt to try and make a new friend.

She shook his hand and smiled at him but grabbed her things and walked off without looking back as Hunter watched her with murder all over his eyes, his smile grew bigger as he couldn't contain his lust for blood.

He looked over his shoulder in search of another blond person to be the prey with him as the predator.

Meanwhile In The Loud House

"And that's everything, now look you can't tell anyone I told you this, can you promise me that? " Lincoln said with a serious expression on his face while Charles Jr. looked at him confused only to lick his face a couple seconds later as Lincoln smiled and laughed happily.

Until he looked behind him and looked around the area, he studied it closely then shrugged his shoulders and said to Charles Jr, "That was weird, I could've sworn I heard someone. "

"Phew that was close. " Lana said quietly as she hid behind the couch. "AHA! I KNEW IT! " Lincoln said as he looked at Lana, scaring her by accident.

"Don't do that Lincy! Almost scared me half to death! " Lana said, clutching her chest only to see the look on Lincoln's face. "How much did you hear Lana? "

She sweated a bit and looked away from him and said, "I don't know what you're talking about Lincy. " She then laughed nervously only for Lincoln to bend down to her level and give her the look.

"What are you doing? " She asked, confused. Lincoln kept looking at her without blinking, after a few seconds she started to get creeped out. "Alright Lincy you can stop now. "

He kept staring at her until she finally broke and said, "Alright fine! I heard everything! All of it! Now please stop doing that stupid look! "

He smiled and said, "Gets em' every time. So then, Lana, what were you planning to do after you heard all of that. "

"Uhhh why were you saying it out loud to a dog? " She asked as Lincoln looked back to Charles Jr who was still confused about everything and thought they were playing a game.

"Fair enough, but seriously Lana, what were you going to do? " He asked with a serious look on his face.

She didn't know if she should say because he might get mad but sighed in defeat and said, "I was going to tell everyone, please don't be mad.. "

"Oh I'm not mad. " He said as if she was the crazy one. "Y-you're not? " She asked, confused.

"Of course not, I was actually planning on telling everyone at some point but I didn't want to upset mom if I told you all, she told me not to tell you in the first place. " Lincoln said as he played with his fingers.

"Well mom's not home right now, so you could just tell us all right now. " Lana said with a smile on her face.

"I guess I could but what if they all don't take it well? What if they get mad at me for hiding it in the first place! " Lincoln said as he started to hyperventilate only for Lana to hug him and say, "They won't get mad at you, that's the last thing they would do. "

Lincoln smiled as he hugged Lana back, she was right after all, it's been a very long time so they wouldn't wanna fight with Lincoln, he's like a big brother to all of them now, especially to Lori and Leni, ever since he came back he's matured more then when he was his usual dorky twelve year old self.

As Lincoln and Lana walked up the stairs to Lori and Leni's room, they heard fighting coming from their room. When they opened the door they saw every single sister fighting with each other.

Lori and Leni were yelling with each other about who would take Lincoln to the mall first. Luna and Luan were fighting over where he should go first, a wicked concert or magic show. Lynn and Lucy were fighting over who could show him who had a bigger collection, Lynn's trophies or Lucy's goth dolls. Lola and Lisa and Lily were fighting over who could spend the rest of the day with him.

Lincoln and Lana watched quietly, he didn't know this happened whenever they wanted to spend time with him, he just thought they could catch him whenever they were free.

"So this happens every time? " He asked shocked. She nodded and said, "I actually escaped the fight and that's when I heard you downstairs. "

He nodded and cleared his throat loudly getting there attention and before he could say anything they all tackled him down and bombarded him with questions about who he'd want to hang out most with, he couldn't answer because he honestly couldn't choose, he loved all his sisters equally and if he choose one to hang out with he knew it would break their hearts but also make them very jealous, it's one of the many hassles of having so many sisters.

He then was able to stand up again and said, "Listen girls I'll get back to you on that one, but for now I need to tell you all something, it's really important. "

They all were surprised with their brother being so serious, they hadn't seen like this in well, ever really so they nodded and sat on Lori and Leni's beds' as Lincoln sat in a chair with Lana next to him, he then told them everything.

A Couple Minutes Later..

They sat in shock after what they heard, they couldn't believe their father would do such a thing, but also couldn't believe their mom would still be in love with their father after all the fighting they did and how bad things got.

"There's no way dude! Mom would never still be in love with pops! " Luna said as she stood up angrily.

Lori then stood up too and said, "It does kind of make sense though, mom was with dad for a long time so why wouldn't she still be in love with dad? "

"Why Lori? Because they got divorced like six years ago! That's why! " Luna yelled as Leni then stood up and said, "If I'm being honest, now that Lincy is back I wouldn't mind having dad back in the house. "

Some sisters were surprised but Lola stood up and said, "Yeah me too! " Luan agreed and so did Lori and Lily and Lynn and Leni of course.

While Lucy, Luna, and Lisa all disagreed and said they could never forgive their father for sending Lincoln away and never want him back in the house again.

"You know I'll let mom have a piece of my mind when she gets back home! Because this is crazy! " Luna yelled as Lisa and Lucy agreed.

Now every sister started to argue, they were divided on this topic as Lincoln watched, he didn't want this to happen, he hoped they all would see this as a way to find their father since he disappeared, he didn't really mention that part though, as things were starting to escalate and stuff was beginning to get thrown around Lincoln knew he had to stop this before it got any worse.

"Girls? Girls! Grr… GIRLS! " Lincoln yelled as his anger was starting to take control of him, he silenced all his sisters in a split second as he started to take deep breaths, he then said, "Look, I don't know what happened to all of you while I was gone and I'm sorry you're life was affected because of dad's stupid decision to send me away but that's in the past. "

"But- " Luna began but the look Lincoln gave her meant she knew better than to interrupt him right now, "And I'm sorry things didn't work out between mom and dad and everyone in royal woods went psycho when the news got scrambled around, but like I said that's in the past, we need to focus on moving forward, when I was sent to boot camp I learned a lot of important things, the main thing was to let any form of anger towards a person go. " He then looked to Lola and walked over to her and said, "Of course I was mad at Lola, why wouldn't I be, but over time I learned to forgive her, and dad may have taken things way out of proportion but I'm more then sure after after he and mom got a divorce he regretted it deeply, wouldn't you guy miss seeing your family if you were forced away from them? " Lincoln asked as all his sisters nodded to each other.

Luna then walked over to Lincoln and said, "You're right bro, I may not forgive dad for everything but I do miss him just a bit. "

"Me as well, even if he was annoying sometimes. " Lisa said as Lucy nodded.

"Well even if we do figure out a way to get mom and dad back, what do we do about royal woods? I mean they literally look at us like monsters. " Leni said on the verge of tears.

"Well me and Rebecca have been thinking, and we may have found the person who started the rumor in the first place. " Lincoln said with a confident smile on his face.

All his sisters froze, were their ears deceiving them or was this some dream, they all yelled really and asked just who started the rumor that ruined their lives, Lincoln shushed them once again mainly because he couldn't hear himself think then said, "It was C- Lincoln was interrupted by a phone call from someone he didn't expect, Clyde McBride.

Meanwhile With Hunter Zolomon

Hunter took the gag out of Lynn Sr's mouth and said, "Met your wife today, well ex wife. " He said with a sadistic smile.

Lynn's eyes grew wide as he tried to tackle Hunter only to be pulled back by the handcuffs and said, "You stay the fuck away from her you disgusting monster! "

Hunter laughed at Lynn's anger and said, "Don't worry I'm not going to hurt her, well.. Not yet that is. "

"I'm warning you if you touch her I'll- " Lynn ceased his talking when Hunter got close to him and said, "You'll what? Kill me? Just like you killed your son? "

Lynn went quiet as he looked down to the ground as Hunter laughed more and said, "You're so pathetic you know that? Anyways I gotta go, I have a body upstairs I need to get rid of, so see you tomorrow! " He put the gag back in his mouth as he headed back upstairs as a few tears escaped Lynn's eyes.
