Moving In

Back at the Loud house in the living room, the Loud parents and sisters; along with Clyde, Zach, Liam, and Stella were coming out of the portal that Lisa made.

"Home sweet home." said Rita.

"And also dimension sweet dimension." said Lori.

"I'm gonna go get packed right away." said Luna as she runs upstairs to her room.

"Okay, dear." said Rita.

"Man, the dimension that Lincoln and Sam are in is so cool!" said Lana.

"Those Pokemon creatures are very fascinating." said Lisa. Lily takes Bibarel's pokeball out of her diaper and tosses it, letting her out.

"That Zorua that Lincoln had was so cute!" said Lola.

"Totes!" said Leni.

"And it was cool when she transformed into each of us." said Lana.

"And Lincoln and Sam met some nice people and made one friend we know about." said Lori.

"Unfortunately, that Paul guy seemed like a jerk." said Lynn Jr.

"Hopefully, Lincoln and Sam won't encounter him anytime soon." said Lucy from behind Lynn Jr, startling her. Clyde notices Stella, frowning with her arms crossed.

"What's with you?" Clyde asked Stella.

"I don't like that Dawn girl being too close to Lincoln." said Stella, making the Loud sisters giggle which makes Stella blush.

"Well, we can blame Rusty for that." said Clyde.

"Yeah, it's his fault that Lincoln and Sam ended up going to that dimension because he made that photo which led to them meeting her." said Zach.

"What are we going to do now?" asked Luan.

"We will be checking up on Lincoln every day to make sure that he and Sam are doing okay." said Rita.

"I'm gonna miss Lincoln being here in person." said Clyde. A thought enters Stella's mind.

"Hey, could you wait on closing this portal for a bit longer?" asked Stella.

"Why?" asked Lisa. Stella then pulls Clyde aside and talks to him about something; after a minute, Clyde thinks for a few seconds before nodding.

"What are you two planning?" asked Lori.

"We're thinking we could join up with Lincoln also." said Stella.

"Yeah, I want to be with my best buddy also." said Clyde. Lori smirks as she looks at Stella.

"I'm guessing that you don't want to risk that Dawn girl taking Lincoln from you." said Lori, making Stella blush with a frown on her face.

"I suppose we can wait while you go to your houses and pack essential needs." said Lisa.

"Thanks, Lisa." said Clyde as he and Stella run out the Louds' front door. A minute later, Luna comes downstairs with a suitcase in one hand, a backpack on her back, and her guitar in her other hand.

"I'm ready." said Luna.

"We're waiting for Stella and Clyde to come back." said Lori.

"How come?" asked Luna.

"They're going back to that dimension with you to be with Lincoln." said Lynn Jr.

"Oh, I guess I can wait a bit longer than." said Luna.

Back at the Sinnoh Region in Lincoln and Sam's cabin; they, along with Dawn were on their living room couch, watching something called a Pokemon Contest on TV; right now, a Pokemon known as a Roserade was spinning around while scattering flower petals all around while also releasing a sparkling blue powder which clings to them, making them sparkle.

"This is so amazing." said Lincoln.

"I know, right?" replied Dawn. "I always wanted to be a great Pokemon Coordinatior like my Mom."

"I can see why." said Sam. "This looks so awesome." Lincoln looks at the portal that his family and friends used to get back to his and Sam's home dimension.

"I wonder what's taking Luna so long?" asked Lincoln.

"I don't know." said Sam. "I can't imagine that it would take this long to pack some stuff." As soon as she said that, Luna comes out of the portal with her luggage.

"Hey, dudes!" said Luna.

"Hi, Luna!" said Sam as she runs over to Luna and hugs her.

"Sorry I took so long." said Luna.

"No problem." said Sam. Luna looks back at the portal.

"What's up?" asked Lincoln.

"Got room for two more?" asked Luna.

"How come?" replied Lincoln. Suddenly, Clyde and Stella, who both had suitcases in their hands, come out from the portal.

"We're back!" said Clyde.

"Hi, Lincoln." said Stella with a smile before looking at Dawn with a frown, making Dawn frown back at her.

"What are you doing here?" asked Dawn.

"I want to be with MY boyfriend." said Stella. "We have a lot of catching up to do."

"And I don't want to miss out on having an awesome adventure with my best friend." said Clyde.

"That's cool." said Sam.

"Where are we going to sleep?" asked Clyde.

"Stella can have my bed." said Lincoln. "I can sleep on the couch."

"Really?" asked Stella.

"I slept outside for two days without even a blanket." said Lincoln, making Luna look away with shame. "Sleeping on a couch with a blanket would be a big step from that."

"I'll join you." said Clyde. "That couch looks big enough for two kids to sleep on."

"Are you sure, Lincoln?" asked Stella.

"I don't want you to be uncomfortable while you're here." said Lincoln, making Stella smile with tears in her eyes while Dawn frowns at her.

Luna, Sam, and Clyde all unpack their belongings while Lincoln gets a couple of extra blankets and pillows out of the linen closet for him and Clyde to use.

"So, what are you watching?" asked Stella as she looks at the Pokemon Contest on the TV.

"It's something called a Pokemon Contest." said Sam.

"Is that like that battle that Lincoln had earlier today?" asked Clyde.

"Not exactly." said Dawn. "A Pokemon Contest is a competition in which a trainer has their Pokemon use their moves to make an amazing display for a panel of judges to show their skills."

"That sounds interesting." said Stella.

"A Pokemon Contest is divided into two parts: the Performance Stage which is what this part is right now, and the Battle Stage where two trainers have their Pokemon battle each other while putting on an amazing show as they do." said Dawn. "Whoever wins gets a Ribbon that coordinators need to collect in order to compete in the Grand Festival."

"What's that?" asked Lincoln.

"It's like a coordinator version of the Sinnoh League that you're going for, Lincoln." said Dawn.

"That sounds like fun." said Clyde.

"It does; but maybe I'll stick with gym battles." said Lincoln as he pulls out his badge case and looks at his Coal Badge. "I already have a good start on it."

"Do you guys think I can try giving Pokemon Contests a try?" asked Dawn.

"That's your decision." said Lincoln. "How come you haven't tried yet?"

"My father is worried about me getting into a dangerous situation if I travel across the Sinnoh Region by myself." said Dawn as she looks down with a upset look on her face.

"Would he be okay with you travelling if you were with us?" asked Lincoln.

"You wouldn't mind?" asked Dawn.

"You're already travelling with me and Sam right now." said Lincoln "We wouldn't mind if we took the time for you to do Pokemon Contests."

"Thanks, Lincoln!" said Dawn as she wraps her arms around Lincoln in a hug, only for him to be pulled out of it by a jealous Stella. As they all start sitting down on the couch, Stella has Lincoln sit on a far end of the couch while she takes the seat next to him so Dawn couldn't sit next to Lincoln.

"Looks like you have to sit on the recliner." said Stella with a smirk. Dawn frowns before she gets an idea.

"I see a good place to sit." said Dawn. She then walks over to Lincoln and sits on his lap, making him blush, and Stella look with shock; Dawn smirks at the look on Stella's face, making her growl.

They all watch the Pokemon Contest, with Stella's interest in it growing every second. Lincoln and Clyde were very interested in the Battle Stage. Once the show was over, they all go over what they were going to do next.

"So, where's your next gym battle going to be at, Lincoln?" asked Clyde.

"I believe the second closest gym from here next to Oreburgh City is in Eterna City." said Lincoln. He brings up the map on his Poketch and looks at it. "If we travel north of Jubilife City through Route 204, we should reach a place called Ravaged Path; once we get through there, we continue going north until we reach a place called Floaroma Town, then we travel east from there through Route 205 until we reach this bridge and travel north from it until we reach Eterna Forest, and through there, we travel east, and we'll reach Eterna City."

"Sounds like a long way." said Sam.

"It'll be worth it to get to my next gym battle." said Lincoln.

"Do you think you can help me catch a Pokemon for myself to use in Pokemon Contests?" asked Dawn.

"Sure, I don't see why not." said Lincoln.

"Maybe I should give Pokemon Contests a try." said Stella.

"Really?" replied Sam.

"The one we just saw looked like so much fun." said Stella.

"But you don't know a lot about Pokemon." said Sam.

"Maybe we can get Clyde and Stella enrolled at the Pokemon School." said Lincoln.

"That would be a good idea." said Sam.

"I'll pay the enrollment fees for both of you." said Lincoln.

"Thanks, Lincoln." said Clyde while Stella kisses Lincoln on the lips, making Dawn growl.

"We can wait about a couple of weeks while Clyde and Stella learn the basics of Pokemon training." said Lincoln. "I can also use some of that time to get started on training my Shieldon, along with my other Pokemon."

"Maybe you can use the Rock Smash TM I have on Shieldon to give him another attack." said Dawn.

"Really?" replied Lincoln. Dawn grabs the TM out of her bag and hands it to him. "Thank you." Dawn smirks at Stella, making her growl.

About an hour later back in Royal Woods, the rest of the Loud sisters have Rusty tied to a chair with his eyes taped open, in their garage, with a large monitor in front of him.

"Come on, girls; haven't you done enough to me?!" asked Rusty.

"At first, we thought we did, but then we came up with something new." replied Lola with a sadistic smile on her face.

"W-W-What?" stammered Rusty.

"First off, we found our brother." said Lori.

"You did?! Please, let me talk to him!" exclaimed Rusty, hoping that if he could convince Lincoln to forgive him for making that photo, then everyone would stop giving him a hard time.

"You can't; he's in another dimension right now." replied Luan.

"What do you mean?" asked Rusty.

"He used an invention of mine that's capable of dimensional travels to go to another universe." replied Lisa.

"Why did he do that?" asked Rusty.

"To get away from all the people giving him a hard time because of YOUR photo!" exclaimed Lola.

"Anyway, we have a video we would like to show you." said Lana. Lisa points a remote at the monitor and pushes a button; the monitor showed the video of Stella and Dawn fighting over Lincoln.

"What do you think?" asked Luan. "Two girls are fighting over Lincoln."

"Who's the girl with the short skirt?" asked Rusty with a grin.

"That's Dawn." said Lucy from out of nowhere beside Rusty, startling him.

"She's a girl that Lincoln met in the dimension he's in." said Leni. Rusty watched as Stella and Dawn continued to fight over Lincoln; his eye begins to twitch; he tries to turn his head away, but Lori and Leni turned his head so he would look at the video and held it in place. After a minute of watching, Rusty begins screaming and struggles to get free.

"IT'S NOT FAIR!" shouts Rusty as the Loud sisters who were there smirk at him.

A couple hours later back in Sinnoh, Lincoln and the others were getting ready for bed.

"What are we going to do about school supplies?" asked Clyde as he and the others were brushing their teeth.

"I bought some extra stuff for myself a week ago. I'm sure I can afford to give you and Stella some." said Lincoln.

"Thanks, buddy." said Clyde. After everyone was done, they went to their rooms to get some sleep. As Lincoln was about to lie down on the couch, he feels a hand on his shoulder; he turns to see Stella staring lovingly into his eyes.

"Lincoln; I know I hurt you when I slapped your face and broke up with you, but I will earn your forgiveness for falling for Rusty's stupid photo." said Stella before she kisses Lincoln on his lips. She then turns and goes into the bedroom that Lincoln let her use. Lincoln stares at the bedroom door for a minute before lying down on the couch.

"Night, everyone." Lincoln says loud enough so everyone can just about hear him.

"Goodnight, Lincoln." everyone else responds. Lincoln then looks at Stella's bedroom door before going to sleep.
