Rock n' Not Loud Adventures.
Chapter 708: Santiago's, Chang's, Friends and a concert…

(August 30. Santiago Residence. Royal Woods Michigan.)

We see Ronnie Anne Santiago waking up and she looks around. She smiles and then heads for the bathroom, she does see her Pokémon friends Fuecoco is fast asleep and so she lets him be. 'So glad that we're not in Great Lakes City anymore. No parrot roommate, no sounds of a train going by or the burger blast… no wait. We settled that issue back then.'

Ronnie Anne then grabs her toothbrush and something still surprises her. 'I am still confused, our friends are here. I mean, Laird seems to have explained that he lives in a mansion here in Royal Woods thanks to his parents and he has his butlers, but what about the others?'

(Later.)

Ronnie Anne comes out of the house with her skateboard with Fuecoco riding with her and he also has a helmet and she rides off and riding by next to her is Sid. Sid has Sprigatito also riding with her, and yes their Pokémon friends are wearing their own custom made helmets for safety. "And a good morning to you Ronnie Anne. I'm still getting used to the fact that we're not in Great Lakes City anymore."

Ronnie Anne chuckles. "Same here. Everything is changing and I am so digging it. Right now my dad is at work, mom is still at home and Bobby…. Hmmm, I don't know what he's up to. Anyway, we should go and meet with the others at the Park."

Ronnie Anne and Sid continue their journey to the park. They ride fast and they dodge some incoming obstacles, they do move fast and pass by the Loud House, it's a street far from their home and Ronnie Anne knows this is something Bobby would like, and chances he might be having plans today with Lori.

(Ketcham Park.)

Ronnie Anne and Sid have arrived and they see their other friends are here, the rest of the Skater's club: Nikki, Laird, Sameer and Casey. Even they're friends who already live around these parts: Lincoln, Jordan, Clyde, Liam, Rusty, Zach, Taylor, Delilah, Leslie, Stella, Jo, Rachel, Paige, Christina, Carmelina and Tabby. They have skateboards, bikes and roller skates.

"Looks like we're all here" replied Ronnie Anne, but then she looks around and then she asks. "Is there anyone else coming along? I thought we'd all be here."

Lincoln answers that one. "the others have plans. Now Polly Pain would love to come but she's planning for her comeback into Roller Derby." He does spot Lynn Jr. and her friends are here at the Park as well, and ready to do some soccer practice.

Sid nods. "Alright then. I guess we're all here to show what we can do! Woohoo!" she races off and so the others follow. For the entire time here they do some tricks around the park and show them what they can do and why they are the Skater's club, showing that they are professionals with their wheels and even Laird too surprisingly.

They also hear about what went down when Ronnie Anne's Tio Carlos had issues with Tony Hawks which turned out to be a total misunderstanding and Lincoln feels like this has happened to him before but it involved Rita and Chef Pat. Delilah is still stunned to know that Ronnie Anne and her friends literally met Tony Hawks and she is confused about this conflict Carlos Casagrande had with him.

The others try their best to show their skills but they don't have the same pro skills as the Skater's Club but they are surprised that Lincoln and Jordan are capable of doing such skills and tricks with their bikes. While they're Pokémon friends watch this and clap.

Soon they're all enjoying something to eat which are sandwiches from Casey's dad's food truck. "Dang Casey" replied Clyde. "You're dad knows how to make these sandwiches taste amazing."

Casey chuckles. "Thanks. I'm so glad we're here in Royal Woods. The other reason why is because this town has a decent amount of tourists who can help him go big and I think my dad has plans to open his own sandwich restaurant. Now that sounds exciting!"

Jordan chuckles. "Looks like you're dad has an awesome and delicious dream, you gotta start small before you hit it big." She looks to the others. "So, everyone else here doing alright living in Royal Woods and accepting the new changes?"

Nikki speaks. "My mom is taking up cookies classes and my dad works at the Royal Woods Mall. I don't know what it is but I look forward to what he's gonna tell us tonight. Also, I love these odd Pokémon guys. They're so awesome and odd." She sees an Oddish walk by her.

Laird then speaks. "You guys already know why I'm here and I need to be careful about these Pokémon because it might end ip triggering my allergies."

Casey speaks next. "My parents are doing alright being here and they're happy about the affordable stuff and the decent school systems which have been changed. I'm just glad we don't have to deal with Becky and her twin."

Lincoln then asks Ronnie Anne. "Speaking of school. Are you going to reclaim the Lioness title once school comes around?" that part makes his friends scared since they remember how mean and tough Ronnie Anne was back then.

"Nah. That ain't me anymore Linc" replied Ronnie Anne. "I think too skate boarder in middle School is a better title for me. Besides, the whole tough gal title has been passed onto the dodge ball queen." Ronnie Anne and Jordan high five and fist bump.

They all continue to enjoy their food and Lincoln even waves to Luna and Sam who are also at the Park and even some of the Loud's are here especially Leni and Kurt, Lori and Bobby. Stella then asks. "You guys miss Great Lakes City?"

Sid thinks about this and then she speaks with the others and they all agree. "We are kinda in the 50/50 about the whole thing. On one hand we kinda do miss some of the things, but on the other hand we are glad to be away from trouble that goes around Great Lakes City. We are all looking forward to whatever we'll be doing here in Royal Woods."

Nikki then speaks. "And remember this gang. Some of us were never born in Great Lakes City; we're from others parts of the country." They all chuckle hearing this and look forward to what else might come next for all of them.

Just then Lincoln sees a commotion coming from afar and he gets up and goes there. The others notice this and they follow him too and even Luna, Sam and the Loud's follow and see what's going on in the middle of the Park.

Everyone gathers around and sees this large concert which is almost done, but there is something else going on when Lincoln and Jordan see the concert stage, and they see the name which is revealed and this surprises Lincoln and Jordan. Ronnie Anne notices this and is confused, and then Sid asks. "What the heck is One Piece?"

Lincoln and Jordan speak at the same time in total disbelief. "The best Anime Franchise, tied with Pokémon and Dragon ball!"

Ronnie Anne and Sid are confused hearing this and then they ask. "What the heck is Dragon Ball?"

Then they all see Michelle Lewis on stage, and then she makes an announcement. "Hello and welcome everyone. This is a very special concert, and I wanna thank the Royal Woods Marching Band from the High School for being here, and memorizing how the beats go.!" Everyone cheers. "Alright, now let's get this concert started with a very special friend of mine from Japan!"

The band starts this beat, which sounds exciting with a little bit of some suspense, and they see on the concert screen is a scenario from One Piece, and this is something Lincoln and Jordan have seen, but the first time for everyone else.

Narrator. "Riches, Fame and Power. One man obtained everything in the world… The Pirate King Gold Roger. His dying words sent countless adventurous souls to the sea."

Gold Roger. "My treasure? If you want it, then it's yours. So search for it! I left all that the world has to offer to me in that one place!"

Narrator. "And so the search began, with many brave men searching through the Grand Line for the Pirate King's hidden treasure and to keep going on, living their dreams. The world is truly changed, in this Great Pirate Era!"

The beat then gets intense, and then someone is on stage and sings, and Lincoln and Jordan know who it is and yell. "Hiroshi Kitadani?!"

Arittake no yume wo kakiatsume.
Sagashimono wo sagashi ni yuku no sa.
One Piece!

(Instrumental.)

Rashinban nante juutai no moto.
Netsu ni ukasare kaji wo toru no sa.
Hokori kabutteta takara no chizu mo.
Tashikameta no nara densetsu ja nai!

Kojinteki na arashi wa dareka no.
Baiorizumu nokkatte.
Omoisugoseba ii!

Arittake no yume wo kakiatsume.
Sagashimono wo sagashi ni yuku no sa.
Poketto no Koin, soreto.
You wanna be my Friend?
We are. We are on the cruise! WE ARE!

(Instrumental. Electric Guitar and Saxophone.)

Zembu ma ni ukete shinjichattemo.
Kata wo osarete ippo riido sa.
Kondo aeta nara hanasu tsumori sa.
Sorekara no koto to korekara no koto.

Tsumari itsumo pinchi wa dareka ni.
Apiiru dekiru ii chansu.
Jiishiki kajou ni!

Shimittareta yoru wo buttobase!
Takarabako ni kyoumi wa nai kedo.
Poketto ni roman, soreto.
You wanna be my Friend?
We are. We are on the cruise! WE ARE!

Arittake no yume wo kakiatsume.
Sagashimono wo sagashi ni yuku no sa.
Poketto no Koin, soreto.
You wanna be my Friend?
We are, We are on the cruise! WE ARE!
WE ARE! WE ARE!

Everyone is shocked, and baffled, but then they cheer after hearing this man sing, and the scenes from the anime which are action packed and awesome. Sid and Ronnie Anne are surprised, but they see Lincoln and Jordan have stars in their eyes, they have heard a lot of these songs from the anime and love a lot of them. Even the Loud's are baffled.

Leni then speaks. "That woman with the orange hair, I think her outfit designs are cute."

Then the singer Hiroshi Kitadani speaks. "And now, this next one is from… My good friend, Michelle Lewis! Show them, that you can sing it, Japanese style!" He then walks off feeling excited, and hearing this surprises everyone.

"Wait what?! Michelle Lewis can sing Japanese?!" Amanda readies her video camera.

They then see Michelle Lewis on stage, and she has a keyboard, and then they hear the beat start, and the screen shows scenes from One Piece, the aftermath from… The War on Marineford arc, and both Lincoln and Jordan know, this is going to be sad and emotional.

Yo ga akeru mae ni tabidatou.
Mada minu ashita wo mukae ni ikou.
Sou kimeta koto kui wa nai.
(Oh I know what I'm supposed to do)

Donna shiren ga machi uketeiyou to.
Takanaru kodou tomerare wa shinai.
Mezasu basho wa tada hitotsu.
(Fly to the light)

Tatakai no hate ni eta kizuna.
Dare ni mo kizutsukesase wa shinai.
Nigiri shimeta te hirakeba.
Soko ni chikara ga yadoru.

Saa hajime you.
Atarashii sekai ga yonde iru.
Hora mite goran.
Ikutsu no umi hedateteita toshite mo.
Itsudatte sasaeteiru.
Osorezu ni mae he.
Wasurenai de.
We fight together

(Instrumental.)

Kaze wo uke tori ga habataku.
Ano niji wo kugutta saki ni wa.
Kibō toiu hana ga emiku.
(The flowers will never die)

Massugu ni nobiteiku sono omoi.
Kokoro ni shimai konda mama ja.
Kyūkutsusugi wa shinaikai?
(Fly to the light)

Itsuwari de nani ga mamoreru.
Hiza wo tsuku koto wa haji de hanai.
Tachiagaru sa nan do demo.
Kitto mata aerukara.

Sā hajimeyō.
Atarashī sekai ga yondeiru.
Hora mite goran.
Ikutsu no umi hedateteita toshite mo.
Itsu datte sasaeteiru.
Osorezu ni mae e wasurenaide.
We fight together.

Kegashita koto wa nai.
Ano hi miageta.
Doko made mo takaku hiroi sora.
Zuibun to tooku made kita.
Sorezore no chikai wo mune ni.
Mayoi nado nai.
Seou mono ga aru.

Hi ga nobori.
Kanashimi sae hitoshiku terasu.
Shinjiterunda.
Itsuka hitotsu ni tsunagaru mirai wo.
Issho ni mitsuke ni ikou.
Kimi no kawari wa inai.
Wasurenai de.
We fight together.

Life goes on.
Life goes on.
Life goes on.
Life goes on.
Life goes on.
Life goes on.
Wasurenaide.
We fight together!

Everyone is surprised hearing this, and to see all those scenes, and to know that Michelle Lewis knows Japanese and sings it. But they all feel a sense of sadness and yet hope from the song and they all clap and cheer. Lincoln and Jordan wipe away some tears, since this is by far the saddest moment in the anime series.

Michelle Lewis then speaks. "Alright, and now for another song from Hiroshi Kitadani, for the new One Piece Arc in the series!" They see Hiroshi Kitadani come back on stage, but with this different and futuristic outfit, and style. Lincoln and Jordan don't know this arc in the anime and they see the scenes from the new arc in the One Piece series called, Egghead Arc, and then the song starts with something grand to something exciting!

(All of us! Dream save us! Us!)
Aassu, Aassu! Aaassu! All of us.

(Aassu Aassu!)

Yume no hate umi no hate.
Ikitai basho wa sorezore da.
Dakedo hitotsu kagayakeru.
Densetsu wo buchiagete kara da.

Bachibachi No limit koko kara ga.
ONE PIECE!

All of us tabibito ni tsugu.
Sono yume wa mada nukucchai nai ka?
Nemurenai saibou ga kusugurare hajikete ku.

Oretachi to tomo ni sekai kawari tsuzuketeru.

(Instrumental. Trumpet and Electric Guitar.)

Shirareteru katarareru.
Dekigoto nante akiaki da.

Hateshinai yabou kuchihatetai ka?
Sekai ni wa karamiatta kowasu beki densetsu ga.

Kokoroshii chie wo matotta kurai ja.
Kaidoku (yome) ya shinai sa omoi kizamareta angou.

Bachibachi No limit koko kara ga.

Choudo yoku donkan sore to toppa-ryoku migake.

Biribiri Electric Gia agero.
ONE PIECE!
(ONE PIECE! ONE PIECE! ONE!)

All of us tabibito e tsugu.
Imi no nai tatakai wa nainda.
Barabara no bunmyaku ga ishi wo mochi tsunagareba.
Toki no ito ga tsumuginaosareru.
Oretachi to tomo ni sekai kawari tsuzuketeru.

(All of us! Dream save us! Us!)
Aassu, Aassu! Aaassu! All of us!

Everyone cheers and claps, and it is a round of applause all over the place. The entire thing looked awesome, and exciting! Lincoln and Jordan are surprised, and don't know what to say, and even Lisa Loud who saw everything is amazed, and impressed. This is an amazing surprise concert.

Amanda smiles and is still surprised. 'Dang, Michelle has a lot to explain about this, and I am very certain that Lincoln and Jordan will want an autograph from that guy.' She then looks to Luna and Sam. "You girls okay?"

Luna and Sam are still surprised. "Michelle can sing in Japanese too?!"

A/N: They now have expanded their group of friends and as for that special concert made by Michelle Lewis… They didn't see that one coming! God damn! I do hope that you all enjoyed reading this new chapter everyone.
