15. Man's best mutant

It's a normal day at the Loud house, the Louds we're all in the living room watching operation dessert storm.

"C'mon Beth! You got this!" Lincoln shouts.

"Roadkill has nothing on your muffins!" Lori yells.

"I'm too on the edge of my butt for a joke!" Luan shouted and her arms and legs are crossed.

Siblings, i have done the calculations and i have deduced that there is no way Beth can lose!" Lisa tells them.

"And the winner is"

The Loud siblings gasped and were about to find out the winner is and then their watches beeped.

"NO!" the Louds yell. Lori then looks at her watch and sees Clyde on the other end.

"What do you literally want!" Lori asks.

"Yeah dude. We are about to find out who won this weeks episode of dessert storm!" Luna tells him.

"Sorry guys but it's time for your weekly powers test." Clyde tells them. "You know the test that Ronnie Anne conducts to make sure you guys aren't having any issues with your powers."

"Who's the whack job who came up with this test?" Lori asked.

"That would be you Lori." Clyde replied

"Oh. Right." Lori said embarrassed. "Why did I suggest that again?"

"After Lincoln's last episode, you thought that it would be best if we do a powers test to make sure we aren't having any issues and to make sure we still have control." Lisa told her.

"Dang it me. Come on let's go." Lori said. but they see their pets, Charles, Cliff, Walt, Geo, Hops and Fangs.

The Louds try to go around them but the pets don't let them. "Um, what's going on?" Leni asks.

"Yeah. Why won't they let us leave?" Luan asks.

"Hey Lana, why don't you see talk to them and see what's up?" Lynn suggested.

"I'm on it." said Lana and turns into a dog and talks to the pets. "So, what's up guys?"

"What's up? Whats up is that you guys are leaving again." Charles tells her.

"Yeah. Ever since you kids became heroes, you haven't been home as much." Cliff says.

"We get that you have have an important job, but you guys seem to have forgotten about us." Walt tells them.

"We used to hang out Lana." Hops said.

"I feel lonely without Lucy." Fangs sighed

"What were trying to say is this: we miss you kids." Geo tells them.

"Oh. We're sorry guys. We didn't know." Lana tells them sadly.

While the whole process is going on, the rest of the siblings watch with bewilderment. "It's kind of weird watching Lana talk to our pets while we hear barking, meowing and such." Leni pointed out

"Yeah. I wonder what they're talking about?" Lola wondered.

"I do wonder what Fangs thinks about." Lucy says.

"Hanging upside down and Batman?" Luan giggles.

"Sigh. I'm sure he thinks about other things. Its like saying your rabbit Gary only thinks about carrots and Bugs Bunny." Lucy says.

"Touche." Luan says.

Back with Lana and the pets. "Look guys, we're sorry that you guys are feeling neglected, but it isn't like we don't hang out with you." Lana points out.

"Yeah. But you guys are exausted." Charles argues. "I don't remember the last time Lincoln took me for a walk."

"I miss being stroked." Cliff says sadly.

"Kinda miss sitting on Lily's head and listening to her giggle with delight." Walt says.

"I miss racing with Lynn." Geo said.

"You never kiss me good night."'said Hops.

"Lucy never has time nightly strolls anymore." Fangs complained. "Even though I am surprised that your parents let their eight year old daughter wonder the streets at night."

"Lana, all we're asking for is time." Charles says. "Time that you don't give us anymore."

Lana sighs and looks at the pets who ging their begging eyes. "Ok. Let me talk to the others." Lana tells them.

Lana turns back into human form. "So what did they say?" Lincoln asked.

"We'll be neglecting them." Lana answered.

"Huh. I guess we've been so busy, we forgot make time for them." Lincoln says sadly.

"We've harsh on our little pets." Luna sighed.

"Agreed. Even if i see animals as test subjects, those six are family." Lisa said.

"So what do we do?" Leni asks.

"Maybe we can take the pets to the warehouse." Lincoln suggested.

"You sure Ronnie Anne and Clyde won't mind?" Lori asked.

"Ronnie Anne loves Charles and Clyde doesn't mind the pets." Lincoln reassures them.

When the Louds get to the warehouse, Ronnie Anne had her arms crossed. "You're late." Ronnie Anne said.

"Sorry." Lincoln apologized. "But we ran into a complication."

"What kind of complication?" Ronnie Anne asked and then she noticed Charles. "You brought Charles along?"

"Yeah. You see, the pets were feeling neglected." Lana explains.

"So we brought them along." Lola finished.

"What do you mean by 'them'?" Clyde asks.

"We brought our pets to the base." said Leni.

"Ok let me invite my cousins' dog Lalo and parrot Sergio." Ronnie Anne replied.

"What are they like?" Leni asked.

"I was being sarcastic." Ronnie Anne pinched the bridge of her nose.

"C'mon. It isn't like they can tell anyone." Lynn points out.

"Yeah dudes. Lana is the only one who understands them." Luna adds.

Ronnie Anne looks at the pets with their big eyes and she sighs. "Fine they can stay." Ronnie Anne said.

"Well I can keep an eye on them." Clyde said.

"Uh, no you can't." Ronnie Anne says. "I need you to monitor their vitals and to make sure that nothing is wrong. Besides, I'm only taking two at a time. That being said, Lori and Leni are first. Both of you outside." Lori and Leni both walk outside with Ronnie Anne behind them.

The rest of the Louds turn their attention to the pets. "Alright animals, you have our undivided attention." Lisa tells them.

"Let's have some fun!" Luna shouts.

Hops jumps on Lana's head and croaks.

Fangs flies and sits on Lucy's shoulder.

The Louds then play with the pets. Ten minutes into the playing, Luna and Luan are called to the training area. "Don't have too much fun without us!" Luan said.

A few minutes later, the Louds see the base lights flicker. "Looks like Luna's powers are strong as ever." Lori observes. Lisa however panics.

"My chemicals!" Lisa says in a panic.

"What about them?" Lincoln asks.

"I recently created a new formula that needs light." Lisa explains. "If there is no light, who knows what will happen." Lisa runs to her makeshift lab and checks on the chemical. "Oh boy." said Lisa

She sees that the chemicals have bubbled over and are getting on the table.

"I gotta clean this up." Lisa then runs off to get something to clean the mess. As soon as she leaves, we see a ball bounce in with the pets chasing it. The ball hits the beaker and knocking it over. As the pets chsse the ball, Geo gets out of his ball and joins in the chase.

They chase the ball and they land right into the chemicals.

As soon as the chemicals touch them, the pets start changing. Charles starts to get bigger and spikes grow out of his back. His nails turn into claws and his teeth become razors.

Cliff's teeth grow with two of his teeth sticking out of his mouth. His claws get sharper as Cliff gets larger.

Walt's feathers start sticking up and at the end of his wings grow claws. His beak gets longer and his feet become talons as he grows in size.

Geo grows larger. His little legs become massive muscular arms. His back legs get longer and his teeth get sharper.

Hops skin gets darker as he gets bigger. His eyes turn red and spikes start growing.

Fangs gets larger as his get longer. He then grows wings with sharp claws at the end of them. His teeth grow and become sharp fangs.

Meanwhile, Luna and Luan both returned inside. "Ok Lynn and Lucy you're turn." Ronnie Anne said.

"Wait, why isn't Lincoln coming with me?" Lynn asks.

"Out of all of you, Lincoln's powers are more dangerous. So he will go alone." Ronnie Anne explains.

"Ok." Lynn says. As they head to the training area, they all hear something coming from inside the base.

"What the heck was that?" Luan asks.

"That's coming from Lisa's lab!" Lori reported

They run and see a shocking sight: there six pets were no longer small and loving. They were now the size of Vanzilla and vicious.

"Wait a second. Charles?" Lincoln says in realization. "No way."

"Cliff? Is that you?" Lori asks in fear.

"Walt? How?" Luan says while trembling.

"Geo? What happened to you?" Lynn asks shocked.

"Hops, what did you eat?" Lana asked scared.

"Fangs?" Lucy asked.

The pets turn to their owners and snarl at them. "Guys. It's us." Lincoln says taking a step towards. That turned out to be a mistake. As soon as he stepped forward, Charles ran and tackled Lincoln to the ground and was on top of him. "Charles stop!"

"Dude!" Luna shouts. She flies foward and tries to pull Charles off of Lincoln. "Forgive me Charles!" She then shocks him.

Charles yelps in pain and snarls at Luna.

"Sorry dude." Luna gulped.

He shakes her off and she crashes into the wall. Lori goes to try to help but gets pounced on by Cliff. Lola runs up and turns her hand into a crystal hammer.

"Mama's sorry!" Lola shouts. She hits Cliff in the head. However, Cliff doesn't seem to be affected. Instead, he looks at Lola and growls. "Uh oh." Cliff then raises his paw and swatts Lola.

Walt screeches and Luan tries to keep Walt in a force field. "Stay there buddy." said Luan.

Luan hears something and sees Lynn fighting Geo. Lynn was dodging Geo's swings while Geo was growling in frustration. Geo then grabs Lynn's car punchinh bag and throws it. Luan gets destracted and Walt is freed from the forcefield. "Dang it." Walt then flies forward. Lily tries to grab him with him with her vines, but Walt slashes right through them.

"Hops it's me. Lana your best friend!" Lana shouted

Hops' tongue heads straight to Lana, but luckily she dodges the tongue.

Lana then turns into a hummingbird and flies around Hops, trying to dodge the toungue. Leni and her clones try to hop on Geo's back but he throws them off.

"Bad hamster." Leni scolds.

"Please Fangs. Stop this!" Lucy begs. Fangs spitted at Lucy, but she dodged it. "Bad bat!"

"This is getting dumb!" Lynn yells. She then punches the ground pushing the animals out of the base. The animals snarl at the Louds at run towards the city.

"What happened to them?" Leni asks.

"Yeah why are they mutated?" Lincoln asks. They then hear Lisa walking into the room.

"Ok. Time to clean up that spill." Lisa says to herself, not knowing her siblings are listening. "Better clean this up before something catastrophic happens."

"YOU DID THIS!" Lisa looks up and sees Lana as a panther running towards her. Lisa tries to run, but Lana pounces on her.

"I'm going to turn into a Wolverine and maul your face off!" Lana shouted.

"Please don't Lana!" Lisa begged in fear.

"YOU TURNED HOPS INTO A MONSTER!" Lana shouts.

"What are you talking about?" Lisa asks while running from Lana.

Lucy freezes the ground and Lisa slips on the ice. "You turned Fangs into a monster, I have no sister." Lucy said.

"Hey!" Lucy turns around and sees the rest of her sisters glaring at her.

"Except them." Lucy said.

"Hey dudes. I know how to deal with them." Luna says. The girls turn around and see Lincoln full fire.

"Oh yeah." Lynn says. The girls approach Lisa while she trembles in fear.

"What are you talking about?" Lisa asks. "What happened to Hops and Fangs?"

"They turned into monsters! Even Charles, Cliff, Walt and Geo!" Lincoln shouted.

"What! How did this happen?" Lisa asked herself. She turns and sees her beaker tipped over and the contents tipped on the floor. "My experiment! Something must have knocked it over as and the pets must've gotten into it."

"Is there anything you can do?" Lori asks.

"I can create a antidote." Lisa tells them. "But it will take a few hours."

"Uh, guys? We have a problem." Clyde says from the computer.

The siblings all look at the monitor and see their pets attacking Royal Woods. "This is not good." said Lincoln.

"Well at least it's not army of street cats." Ronnie Anne laughed nervously.

"Yeah. Instead we got a giant cat!" Lola says.

"Ok. Listen up. It looks like they split up, so we will to." Lori says. "Lincoln and Luna, you go after Charles."

"You got it sis." Luna says.

"Lola and I will go after Cliff." Lori tells them.

"Let's get my kitty." Lola says determined.

"Luan and Lily, you go get Walt." Lori orders.

"Birdie." Lily says.

"Yeah, we'll fly high and get him." Luan says.

"Lynn and Leni, you guys stop Geo." Lori orders.

"Like, ok." Leni says.

"Lana, you will go after Hops and Lucy, you go after Fangs." Lori finishes.

"You got it." said Lana.

"I'll work on a cure." said Lisa.

"Let me help you Lisa." Ronnie Anne suggested

"Much appreciated future sister-in-law." Lisa says.

"Wait what!?" Lincoln shouts.

"Really?" Ronnie Anne asked with a deadpan look.

"Never say never dudette." Luna says with a sly smile.

"I've said it once and I'll say it again, you're a keeper." Luan says.

"Don't you guys have to go after your pets before they destroy the city?" Ronnie Anne says blushing.

"Right, let's go." Lori says.

The Louds leave and Luna flies off and hits a crate. "Dang it!" Luna shouted.

Firecracker and Amplifier fly over the city and they see Charles chewing on a car.

"I see him!" Firecracker shouts. However, he isn't watching where he's going and crashes into a billboard. "Ow. Hey! The 'Ace Savvy vs Muscle Fish' movie is coming out soon!"

"Little bro, focus!" Amplifier shouted.

"Sorry!" Firecracker replied

The two fly towards the ground and land behind Charles.

"Charles! Drop it!" Firecracker commands. Charles drops the car and turns towards the two siblings.

"Ok Charles, let's get you back to base." Amplifier tells him. Charles responds with a snarl.

"Stand down buddy." Lincoln commended.

Charles roars and charges towards them.

"I guess we ain't gonna reason with him bro." Amplifier says.

"Yep." Firecracker says reluctantly.

Speed Queen ran through the city with Crystal Princess on her back.

"Hurry! Cliff is on the move!" Crystal Princess shouts.

"Quit being a backseat driver!" Speed Queen says annoyed.

They found Cliff and he's eating at the fish market. "That's a lot of fish." said Crystal Princess.

Cliff sees them and hisses. He then starts choking and coughs up a hairball on a nearby sports car. "Cliff! Show some class!" Crystal Princess shouts.

"I think that's Carol's new car." Speed Queen says.

"I can imagine the look on her face right now." said Crystal Princess

Right as she said that, Carol and her boyfriend, Adam walked up. Adam is a 18 year old African American with a brown buzz cut, wearing a red t shirt and black shirt with white running shoes.

"My car!" Carol shouts in despair.

"Sorry about that sweetheart." Adam said.

"Ok that was funny." Speed Queen snickered.

"Ok, but Cliff is getting away!" Crystal Princess points out.

"Right. Let's get after him!" Speed Queen says before speeding off.

"This couldn't possibly get worse." Carol says.

"You just jinxed it." Adam facepalmed.

"Yeah sure I did." Carol says sarcastically. "There is no such thing as jinxes!" Right as she said that, the car explodes. Civilian scatter, calling the authorities. While everyone is panicing, they don't notice four strange men carrying away Carol and Adam.

Above Royal Woods, Ms. Appear and Greenthumb are chasing after Walt.

"We need to be careful from Walt Greenthumb." said Ms. Appear,

"Big Birdie." Greenthumb babbled.

"I know Greenthumb. Big birdie indeed." Ms. Appear says. "But, we have to stop him."

"Boom." Greenthumb babbles. Ms. Appear looks at her confused.

"Boom? What does that mean?" Ms. Appear asks. As she asks, she crashes into a building window and lands in the middle of a board meeting. "Oh. That's what you mean."

"Poo poo." Greenthumb giggles.

"We still need to Walt." said Ms. Appear

"Poo poo." Greenthumb says again.

"Do you need a diaper change?" Ms. Appear asks. Greenthumb just giggles. "Dang it. Alright." She then looks around the room. "Does anyone have any diapers?" As she asks, Walt flies by the window. "Aw come on."

Parkour and Multiple Girl drove through the city looking for Geo. "Now if I was a giant hamster where I be?" Parkour asked.

"We need to think like a hamster." Multiple girl said.

"Yeah, but how?" Parkour asks.

"I don't know. Let's ask Geo. He's right there chewing on that telephone pole." Multiple Girl says.

"Wait Geo!" Parkour hits the brakes on her ATV and they jump off. "Don't let him get away!"

They run up to Geo. The giant gerbil sees them and snarls at them.

"Easy buddy it's me Lynn, you're racing buddy." Parkour said. Luckily there was no one except for Multipe girl to know her secret. "Remember the good times we had?"

Geo snarls and throws a car.

Parkour grabs the car and places it down. "Bad hamster!" Parkour shouted.

Geo roars at her and charged. Multiple Girl then creates three copies of herself and get in Geo's way.

"Stand your ground ladies!" Multipe girl shouted and they hold back Geo for about 10 seconds.

Geo then pushes them aside like they're nothing.

"Dang it." Parkour says.

Wildgirl flew over city looking for Hops. She chose the Red-tailed hawk due to their keen eyesight.

"Where are you Hops?" Wildgirl silently asked. However she wasn't watching where she was going and crashed into a flagpole.

"I need to be more careful." Wildgirl said and she hears screaming coming from down below and sees Hops causing chaos around the city.

"Looks like I found him." Wildgirl says.

Wildgirl jumps down and turns back to her human form. "Hops I don't know if you can understand me in that form. But it's me, you're best friend, remember the good times we had together?" Wildgirl said.

Hops launches his tongue at her and hits her hard.

"Hops no! Don't eat me!" Wildgirl begged and helped on to the flagpole.

Wildgirl starts to lose her grip as Hops pulls.

"Uh oh." Wildgirl says as she loses her grip. As she pulled in by Hops, Wildgirl quickly turns into a hippopotamus. Hops couldn't swallow Wildgirl and got spit out.

"Well, I guess i have no choice." Wildgirl sighs. She then turns into a kangaroo.

"Bring it on!" Wildgirl shouted and hopped and kicked Hops in the face.

Hops is pushed back a little. Hops then growls at Wildgirl.

"Uh oh."

Black Ice made her way through the streets chasing after Fangs. "I better find Fangs before he does something dangerous." said Black Ice.

She then sees that she's about to crash into a lamppost and narrowly dodges it.

"That was close." Black Ice said before crashing into a parked car.

"Dang it." Black Ice groaned in pain. She looked up and sees Fangs spitting on the cars and they melt. "What the heck?"

Fangs then roars and grabs a nearby person.

"No Fangs! Drop him!" Black Ice commands. "Bad bat, drop him."

Fangs let go of the person and he falls down, but Black Ice creates a Ice slide for the citizen. Once the citizen reached ten ground, he ran for his life.

"Fangs! It's me!" Black Ice yells. "This isn't you! Please stop this." Fangs screeched and dives towards Black Ice.

"I'm sorry." Black ice sighed and formed ice fist and punched Fangs in the face.

Fangs is stunned and Black Ice hits him again.

"I'm really sorry buddy!" Black Ice shouted

Fangs then hits Black Ice with one of his wings.

Black Ice crashes into a building and groans.

"This is going to be harder than I thought." Black Ice says.

Firecracker jumps back trying to avoid Charles's massive paw while Amplifier jumps on his back trying to slow him down.

"Whoa whoa!" Amplifer shouted while Charles tried to shake her off. "Heel boy!"

Charles launches Amplifier odd his back and right into Firecracker.

"What are we going to do?" Amplifier asks. "Everything we try fails."

"I know." Firecracker agrees. He thinks for a second and then gets an idea. "What if we take a different approach."

"Different how?" Amplifer asked.

"Remember when I got Charles?" Firecracker asked.

"Yeah. You found him two years ago on your way home from school." Amplifier says. "You brought him home, cleaned him up, fed him and gave him a nice place to sleep. Why do you ask?"

"Because I feel like the only to stop him, is to try to reach him. Charles is still in there. I just know it." Firecracker says.

"I know bro. Me and that pooch have had our fair share of fun to." Amplifier says.

"Then let's use those memories to try to reach Charles." Firecracker says with determination.

Firecracker and Amplifer both get up and approach Charles. "Charles? I don't know if you can hear me or not. But remember when I found you two years ago and gave you a home?" Firecracker asked.

Charles starts walking towards them, but Firecracker and Amplifier aren't backing down.

"Yeah pup. Don't you remember? You were just a stray, lost and hungry til Lincoln found you." Amplifier tells him. Charles then stops walking. "I think it's working."

"I gave you a home and a family. I'm sorry for neglecting you buddy." Firecracker said.

"Yeah little dude. Remember those times we took you for walks and when I first got my bike, you and i cruised." Amplifier continued. Charles starts walking towards them again. "Bro, I think we're losing him!"

"Not yet! Listen Charles, I don't care if your a giant monster!" Firecracker said with tears starting to form. "You aren't just a dog or a member of our family. Your my best friend and I love you buddy."

"Same goes for me pup." Amplifier says with tears forming. "We love you Charles." Charles stops walking and looks at them. He then jumps and lands on Firecracker and Amplifier, pinning them down. The two closed their eyes, waiting for him to finish them off when they suddenly feel something wet and slimey moving across their faces.

It revealed to be Charles licking them. "You Remembered Charles!" Firecracker cheered.

"Welcome back Charles!" Amplifier says to the dog as the two siblings hug him. Charles steps back and lets them up. The giant dog looks around at the damage and lets out a whine

"Don't worry buddy we forgive you." said Firecracker. "Let's get back to base."

"I'll tell others how to get the pets under control." Ampflier said.

Charles then gets on his stomach and motions for the two to get on.

"I think Charles wants to give us a ride back to base." Firecracker says.

"Well ride Sally ride. Let's roll." Amplifier says. The two then climb on and as soon as they're on, Charles starts running.

"Guys listen, we figured out a way to get our pets back to normal." Amplifier said on the comm.

"Good to know Amplifier, but you kinda called at a bad time." Speed Queen tells her as she is currently trying to keep Cliff from finishing off Crystal Princess who is using her crystal claw to keep Cliff from biting her while underneath the large feline.

"Cliff! I'm sorry!" Crystal Princess shouted.

Cliff snarls and grabs the crystal claw in his mouth and throws Crystal Princess. He then turns to Speed Queen and swats her. Both heroes crash in hobby shop.

"So anymore idea oh fearless Leader?" Crystal Princess asked sarcastically.

"Lose the sarcasm Crystal brat." Speed Queen groan.

She then sees that they landed in the yarn aisle. "But I do have an idea."

"What is it?" Crystal Princess asks.

"Remember when we first brought Cliff home?" Speed Queen asks. Crystal Princess nods. "Do you remember what the first thing we did with him was?"

"He played some yarn!" Crystal Princess said. "He was so cute as a kitten."

"Bingo. And I think that the best way to save Cliff, is to bring back some pleasant memories." Speed Queen tells her. "Quick, grab some yarn!"

Crystal Princess grabs some yarn and the two sisters get ready to make some yarn. "Here Cliff." said Speed Queen and threw the yarn at Cliff.

Cliff's eyes widen at the sight of the yarn. He holds a paw out and pushes the yarn a little.

"Ok. He's distracted. Now what?" Crystal Princess asks.

"Simple. Follow my lead." Speed Queen tells her. She then walks up to Cliff and grabs the yarn and starts dragging the yarn around.

Cliff chases the yarn and tries to catch it. "Come on Cliff." Speed Queen said.

"Oh. I get it." Crystal Princess says. She then grabs her own yarn ball and drags it in front of Cliff. "Here kitty kitty." Cliff starts chasing after the yarn while the girls laughs.

"Just like old times." said Speed Queen. "Let's take Cliff back to base."

Cliff walks up to them and nuzzles them while purring.

"Good kitty." Crystal Princess says while petting Cliff. "Mind giving me a ride?" Cliff crouches down and Crystal Princess climbs on.

Crystal Princess stroked Cliff's head and they all head off back to base. "I hope the others are doing fine." said Speed Queen.

"I'm not doing fine!" Ms. Appear yells while hanging on to Walt. Greenthumb however is giggling like crazy. Walt does a spin and knocks the two off his back.

"Hang on Greenthumb!" Ms. Appear grabs Greenthumb and forms a force field. The two land hard. The two look up and see Walt doing a nose dive towards them.

"Oh man. We're screwed Greenthumb." Ms. Appear gulped

She looks over and sees Greenthumb walking away.

"Greenthumb! Come back!" Ms. Appear yells. She then sees where Greenthumb is going. "A greenhouse? How is that gonna help us?" Greenthumb just looked at her older sister and nodded at her. "Wait you have a plan?" Ms. Appear asked

Greenthumb nods again. "Ok. Mind telling me what the plan is?"

"Birdie." Greenthumb says. "Seed."

"Bird seeds! Of course!" Ms. Appear gasped

Greenthumb giggles and Ms. Appear grabs her and carries her into the greenhouse. Once the reached the Greenhouse, Ms. Appear grabs some seeds. "I hope this works." said Ms. Appear.

She walks out and sees Walt in the air circling them. "Hey Walt look what I got." Ms. Appear said and held the seeds up high, Walt flies down and lands. He then looks at the seeds with interest.

"All for you Walt." Ms. Appear said. Then Walt ate some of the bird seeds

Greenthumb walks up to Walt and hugs his leg. "Greenthumb be careful! We don't know if thats our Walt." Greenthumb giggles and continues to hug Walt's leg. Walt looks down at the infant with narrowed eyes.

Ms. Appear gets ready for what's about to happen, but Walt looks down at Greenthumb and then nuzzles the infant with his beak. "Well what do you know." Ms. Appear says as she walks up to Walt and puts a hand on his beak. "The seeds worked."

"No, hug." Greenthumb said.

"It's the seeds." Ms. Appear argued.

"Hug!" Greenthumb says.

"Ok. Hug." Ms. Appear says in defeat. "Glad to have you back Walt." Ms. Appear then joins Greenthumb in hugging Walt. "So, do mind flying us back to base?"

Walt lowers himself so Ms. Appear and Greenthumb can fly back to base, and they took off. "Just try not to crash buddy." said Ms. Appear.

Walt rolls his eyes and takes off.

Downtown, Parkour is locked in a test of strength with Geo.

"C'mon Geo! Snap out of it!" Parkour begs. Multiple Girl then jumps on Geo's back. The other three clones jump on his shoulders and waist respectively.

"Come on Geo, we want the old you back!" Multipe Girl exclaimed.

Geo throws them off and slams Parkour onto the ground.

"Didn't feel a thing!" Parkour shouted.

Geo then grabs her and throws her into Multiple Girl.

"We need to think of something." Multiple Girl says.

"Yeah like what? Go to the nearest pet shop and get hamster food?" Parkour says sarcastically.

"Good idea Parkour." said Multiple girl and ran off to the nearest pet store.

"I was being sarcastic!" Parkour called after her. "But now that i think about it, it's actually not a bad idea." She then runs after Multiple Girl.

Multiple Girl runs into the pet store while Parkour stays outside to distract Geo.

Geo threw another car and Parkour dodges it and the car hits a cabbage stand. "My cabbages!" The owner shouted.

Multiple Girl then runs out of the pet store with a giant bag of gerbil food.

"I got the food." Multiple Girl announced.

"Nice. Give it here." Parkour orders.

Multiple girl clones herself into three and they all threw the gerbil food to Parkour.

"Thanks." Parkour said and opened the bag. "Come on Geo you hungry?"

They dump the food on the ground and Geo walks over. He tries to pick up the small treats, but his fingers can't pick up then up.

"Poor Geo, He can't Pick up the small pieces." Multipe Girl clone 1 said.

"Yeah. It's so sad and I think he's starting to cry." Multiple Girl clone 2 says.

"Yeah. Multiple Girl, pull yourselves together and follow me." Parkour says.

Multipe Girl's clones all merged with the original and follows Parkour. "Here Geo, let us help you out." said Parkour.

Multipe Girl picks up some of the small treats and offers them to Geo. "Here buddy." She said.

Geo starts grabbing them and eating. After he finshes the handful that Multiple Girl had, he eats the handful that Parkour gives him.

"Better?" Parkour asks. Geo nods and looks at the two girls in front of him. He sees that they are bruised and beat up. He looks away with a guilty look on his face.

"It's ok Geo, we forgive you." said Multiple Girl.

"Yeah it wasn't you buddy." said Parkour.

Geo smiles and pulls them into a bone crushing hug.

"Geo! Glad your happy!" Parkour says.

"Yeah but we can't breathe." Multiple Girl says. Geo releases them and place them on his shoulders. He then walks over and grabs the ATV and Go-kart.

"I think Geo is carrying us home." Parkour says.

"Cool." Multiple Girl says. "I hope everyone else is doing ok."

Meanwhile with Wildgirl. "I'm not doing fine!" Wildgirl shouted and tried to avoid Hops' tongue.

Hops shoots his tongue out again but Wildgirl turns into a gorilla and grabs the tongue. The two then have a tug of war. "I need a new plan. I don't want to hurt my best friend." Wildgirl thought.

Hops then swimgs Wildgirl into a building where an object falls out of her pocket. "Hey! My little movie a made about Hops!" Wildgirl says. "I forgot that I brought it."

"This has to work, but I need a big screen." Wildgirl said and then behind her is a flat screen tv.

"This'll work." Wildgirl says with a smile. Hops jumps through the window and looks for Wildgirl. Wildgirl, as a chimpanzee, is hooking up the camera to T.V.

"Please work." Wildgirl gulped as she hears Hops coming closer.

She connects the last two wires and the video pops on the screen. "This is the story about how I met Hops." Lana from th video said.

Hops watched the video with a look of interest which then turned into rememberance. "It's working." Wildgirl smiled in delight.

The video continues and Hops looks down with guilt. He had attacked his best friend. He had to find her.

Hops looked around and sees Wildgirl across the store. "I forgive you Hops!" Wildgirl said.

Hops hops towards her and Wildgirl hugs his head. "Glad your back buddy." Wildgirl tells him. She then grabs the camera and prepared to leave but is stopped by the manager.

Wildgirl sighs and replies. "Fine I'll Clean this mess up."

She quickly sweeps up the floor and puts back everything.

"There you go. All cleaned up." Wildgirl says.

"Thank you. Also, since you rewired the flatscreen, you have to buy it." The owner says.

"Dang it." Wildgirl sighed.

Meanwhile Black Ice is avoiding Fangs' acid spit. "C'mon. I need something to make Fangs remember me." Black Ice says. "I don't i got anything that will work." Black Ice sits down pulls her knees to her chest. "He's gone forever." Fangs flies towards Black Ice, but stops and tilts his head in confusion.

"Fangs was a good bat, who I always take him out on late night walks, he listens to my poems. Now Fangs, my best friend and the most important friend in my life is gone." Lucy sighed as tears formed. "When I thought Rocky didn't like me, Fangs was the first to comfort me." Black Ice continues. "Now I'll never have someone i can talk to anymore." She hears a thud and sees Fangs stanging in front of her. "What are you waiting for. Finish it." She then feels something rubbing against her cheek and sees Fangs wiping one of her tears away with his newly acquired fingers.

"Fangs?" Black Ice guestioned

He sits across from her and smiles. "You are normal again?" Fangs nods. "Thats great. If I had a heart, it would be bursting with happiness." Fangs picks her up and placed her on his shoulder. "Lets head back to base."

Fangs takes off and flies back to base

When they arrive, they see everyone except Lana and Hops at the base.

"We're back except for Lana." said Lincoln.

"She's coming. I can feel it." Lola says.

"Twin sense?" Lynn asks.

"No. I can feel Hops jumping towards the base." Lola answers. "Here she is."

Hops and Lana arrived with a big screen tv. "I had to buy a tv and clean the store after I got Hops back." Lana said with a deadpan look

"Well, i guess we keep the T.V. here." Lincoln says awkwardly. He then feels a nudge and looks to see Charles behind him with a playful look in his eyes. "So, you want to play before you get turned back to normal?" Charles nods. Lincoln then turns to the rest of the mutant pets. "Do you all feel the same?"

All the pets nodded all this.

"Take your time, besides Ronnie Anne and I are still working on the cure. We had to cure Ronnie Anne's tentacle arms." Lisa replied from her lab.

"You still haven't cured them!" Ronnie Anne yelled.

"Working on it!" Lisa called back. She's about to go back to work, but before she does, she turns to the pets. "Dear animal companions, i must apologize for you becoming like this. I should've never have left my chemicals unattended." Lisa starts to tear up. "Even though i see animals as test subjects, I would never experiment on you because you are family. So I'm sorry."

Charles walks up to Lisa and licks her, and she was covered in slobber. "Disgusting." said Lisa.

"Not as disgusting as seeing Ronnie Anne with squid arms." Leni said.

"I heard that!" Ronnie Anne yells.

"Well, I better go fix Ronnie Anne." Lisa said.

"Hold on. I want to do something real quick." Ronnie Anne tells her from the lab. "Oh Lincoln!"

"Uh oh." Lincoln gulps. Suddenly a tentacle comes out of the lab and grabs Lincoln's leg.

"Time for some fun Lame-o." Ronnie Anne says as she drags Lincoln into the lab.

Lincoln screamed as he is being dragged into the lab. "Should we help him out?" Leni asked.

"Nah. Let's just leave it be for now." Lori answers.

"Plus I think Lisa should cure her before Bobby asks me question."

"I'll work it once they're done." said Lisa.

A few minutes later, Lincoln comes flying out of the lab and through the wall while screaming. After he's outside, they see that the hole is shaped like Lincoln.

"Wow. I didn't think it was possible for a hole to be human shaped." Luan says in awe.

"Same here." said Luna.

Ronnie Anne steps out of the lab and smirks.

"Ok Lisa, let's get back to work." Ronnie Anne says.

"Very well. I wish to find out what did you do to my older brother first?" Lisa asked and joined Ronnie Anne in the lab.

"Ok sure." said Ronnie Anne.

Ronnie Anne whispers into Lisa's ear and she immediately freezes up.

"I think I need to lie down." Lisa says. The rest of the siblings look at Ronnie Anne with confusion.

"What did you do to Linky?" Leni asks.

"You're not going to like it." said Ronnie Anne.

"Can you just work on the cure?" Lucy said.

"Whatever." Ronnie Anne tells them. The younger siblings take the pets outside, while the older siblings stop Ronnie Anne.

"What did you do to Lincoln?" Lori asks.

Ronnie Anne rolled her eyes. "Fine i'll tell you!" said Ronnie Anne. "I had some fun with my tentacles."

"Dude. Wow." Luna says. "I'm going to go play with the pets." She then flies out full speed with her sisters not far behind.

Ronnie Anne looked at the readers. "I already made out with him and spun him around. Now let's get started on those cures Lisa." said Ronnie Anne.

Some time later.

"We have the cure ready for the pets and Ronnie Anne is cured too."Lisa said.

"Awesome!" Lynn says.

"Cure these guys and turn them back to normal." Lori says.

Lisa gives a cure to Lincoln, Lola, Luan, Lynn, Lana and Lucy. Lincoln gave the cure to Charles, Lola gave The cure to Cliff, Luan gave the cure to Walt, Lynn gave the cure to Geo, Lana gave the cure to Hops, Lucy gave the cure to Fangs.

After the pets are given the cure, they start to get smaller. Aftet a few seconds, the pets are back to normal.

"I'm glad to see the pets are back to normal." said Lisa.

"Plus Ronnie Anne. Don't ever do that again." said Lincoln,

"No promises." Ronnie Anne says. "Also, Lisa said that there was a side effect to the antidote."

"Side effect?" Lincoln questioned.

"Correct." Lisa says. "But I can't seem to remember what it was."

"You'll figure it out Lisa." Lori tells them. She turns to the pets. "So, are you guys hungry?"

"Starving." Charles answers. "I could eat that car I started chewing on earlier."

"That's not good for you Charles." Leni said.

"Wait did you say something buddy?" Lincoln asked.

"Yeah. I said I was hungry." Charles repeated.

"Don't blame them Charles." Cliff tells him. "Human ears aren't as good as ours."

"He's always hungry and not to mention pooping on the couch." Walt said.

"I never do that on Lana's bed." said Geo.

"Yeah. Instead he does it on Lola's bed." Hops says.

"Charles, i thought you were house trained?" Fangs questioned.

"I am. But nobody lets me out when I ask." Charles complains.

"You have a doggy door!" Geo reminds him.

"What are you trying to say?" Charles asks.

"I'm just saying." said Geo.

"You guys can talk?!" Lori exclaimed.

You guys can understand us?!" Walt exclaimed.

"And I guess that's the side effect." Lisa said shocked.

"Now I can't be the translator." Lana said sadly.

"Um Lana, Ithink your missing the big picture." Lola says.

"Why is that princess obvious?" Lana asked.

"The animals are talking!" Lola screams.

"It is weird." Luan says.

"Yeah. Is it as weird for you guys as it is for us?" Luna asks.

"Not really." Walt answers. "We understood you and we understood each other."

"So you really enjoyed my poems?" Lucy asked.

"Of course I did Lucy." Fangs answered.

"I just have one question Charles." said Lincoln. "When I was kicked out of the house because I was considered bad luck. Why did you bit me?"

Charles lets out a sigh. "Before you start thinking badly of me, I never thought you were bad luck. None of us did. We are pets. We don't see good luck or bad luck. We just see master, friend, guy that feeds us and picks up our poop. But the reason I bit you was because I was still a little angry at you."

"Angry at me for what?" Lincoln asks.

"Remember when you brought home that one human who smelled nice?" Charles asks. Lincoln nods. "Well, I was angry because you and him accidentally destroyed my doghouse. And I just didn't want to risk it getting destroyed." Charles looks up and sees Lincoln with a sad look on his face. "Look Linc. I'm sorry I bit you. After I bit you, i felt overwhelming guilt. Especially after I saw you sleeping outside. If i had known that you were kicked out, I would've been more than happy to let you stay. But i was selfish and did nothing. I hope that you can forgive me."

"I can forgive you buddy." said Lincoln

"Well that takes alot of wait off ny shoulders." Charles says relieved.

"Um, I got a question." Leni says. "Geo, were you a member of the Kids Next Door?"

"Why would you ask me that?" Geo asked with a deadpan look

"Well your a hamster." Leni says.

"Yeah. And?" Geo says annoyed.

"Hamsters work for the Kids Next Door." Leni tells them.

"Leni, I never worked for the Kids Next Door." Geo tell Leni.

"Didn't your sister or cousin worked for the Kids Next Door?" Hops asked.

"No! The KND aren't real!" Geo says frustrated.

"I'm just messing with you take a joke." said Hops.

"Even if they are real. We would have to deal with those delightful children." said Lisa.

"Yeah. Plus Lori, Leni, Luna, Luan and Lynn would be targeted for being teenagers." Lincoln added.

"Not to mention I would be a awesome operative." said Ronnie Anne.

"Um, guys? What are you guys going to do about your pets?" Clyde asks. "How are you going to hide the fact that they can now talk from your parents?"

"We can act like pets in front of your parents and other people and then talk to you guys." said Charles.

"Was I guess that all wraps up here and nobody got hurt." said Luan.

Carol woke up in a unfamiliar place. She looked around saw several people in lab coats and clipboards. She tried to stand but she couldn't.

"What's going on?" She questioned.

"Hello Carol." Carol looked towards where the voice was coming from and saw that it was Andrew Tetherby.

"Who are you and how do you know my name?" Carol asked.

"Andrew Tetherby, CEO of Tetherby industries. We're helping you and your friend out." said Andrew.

"Adam! Where is he?" Carol asks frantic.

"Right here." Andrew answers. He steps aside to reveal Adam. But something wasn't right.

"Why does Adam look like he's part robot?" Carol asks while hugging Adam

"The two of you were caught in a explosion and my team had to repair you and he's not the only one who looks like that." Andrew stated.

"What do you mean?" Carol asked.

"See for yourself." Tetherby told her. Carol turned to a neaeby mirror and saw that her torso, legs and arms were now robotic. She also saw that her robot parts kept her petite physique.

"What?" Was all Carol could say.

"Tell me, what is the last thing you remember?" Tetherby asks.

"Um, giant cat, hairball, L-Crew." Carol listed. "The L-Crew didn't help us."

"They didn't?" Andrew raised a eyebrow.

"Speed Queen and Crystal Princess ran off. Because of them they ruined my chance of becoming homecoming Queen!" Carol shouted.

"I had a scholarship for football." Adam reveals. "Now i can't go to college because of the L-Crew." He then becomes enraged. "It's all their fault!"

"You're right Adam. They will pay for this!" Carol replied.

Tetherby smirks at this. "Glad to hear it."
