85. Future Shock part 5

Smoke: Alright people this is it, the battle between the L-Crew and Vector. Get ready for this.

Tetherby entered the lab, and sees Stuart near Project V. "So is Project V almost done?" Tetherby asked.

"Running some final tests sir." Stuart replied.

"Good." Tetherby said with a smile. Stuart them pressed a button on the terminal which caused the tube containing Project V to drain and slowly open. Once the pod opens, Project V steps out and stumbled a bit but is caught by a couple scientists. "Welcome Vector."

At the Loud house, Lori and her sisters and pets were gathered in her and Leni's room to go over the plan once again. "Alright so we know Vector is gonna attack the mall today at some point in the afternoon. Now we know what the original result was but this time we'll be there to prevent it. Ronnie Anne, Bobby, Sam and Lyle are gonna meet us at the mall while Soothsayer and the pets are gonna deliver Petty and Tongri to the mall. When Vector arrives, someone will go and get them. Any questions?" Leni raises her hand.

"Where's Linky?" Leni asked.

"I guess he's still in his room?" Lynn said.

"I tried knocking but he didn't answer." Lori sighed. "Look we'll just have to hope that Lincoln will meet us at the mall. Any other questions?"

"Who'll get Petty and Tongri?" Lana asked.

"Either me or Luan." Lori replied.

"Oh ok." Lana said.

"Then are we set?" Lori asked. Everyone nods. "Alright. Let's go!"

The Loud girls have reached the mall and sees Bobby, Ronnie Anne and Sam at the front entrance. "Glad you guys can make it." Lori said.

"Wouldn't miss it." Bobby said. "So where's little Loud?"

"No clue." Luna replied. "We haven't seem him all morning. Where's Lyle?"

"I got off the phone with Clyde, he'll be here in a few minutes." said Sam.

"We he better hurry. The fate of the world is in our hands." said Lola.

"Um does Lyle even know how to get here?" Lucy asked.

"I think Clyde told him where the mall is. But we should contact him." said Sam.

"I'm on it." Ronnie Anne said as she pressed a button on her watch. "Hey Lyle, are you almost here or not?"

"I'm not sure." Lyle replied. "I see a lot of people and I'm in a big building but I ain't sure if it's the mall. Hold on I see some people let me ask for directions." The watch goes quiet for a few seconds. "Ok I'm in the mall. Where are you guys?"

"We're outside the mall waiting for you." Ronnie Anne said.

"You are?" Lyle asked.

"Yeah why?" Ronnie Anne asked.

"I'm inside the mall." Lyle asked. "I'm by a guy selling soft pretzels."

"Stay where you are, we'll meet you down there." Ronnie Anne said as she hangs up. "He's inside, he must have gotten here before us."

"Not surprised he didn't recognize the mall." Lisa said. "He doesn't have one in his time."

"He probably thought it was a random building." Sam said. "So did Petty and Tongri get delivered yet?"

"They should be being delivered now as we speak." Lori answered.

In the mall's loading dock, two dockers are seeing a truck being backed up. "Was there another delivery?" One docker asked.

"The boss didn't tell me." The other docker said.

Once the truck stops, Soothsayer wearing a red flannel shirt, jeans and a red cap. "Okay, we're here. You guys stay here and try not to bring anyone's attention." Soothsayer said as he exited the driver's side of the truck. "Hello fellas. Let me open the back for you." Soothsayer opened the back of the truck to reveal a large crate.

"That's your cargo load?" The first Docker asked. "It's just one crate?!"

"Yes, it was a last minute delivery." Soothsayer lied. The two docker both push the large crate out of the truck and into the loading area, they both panted, when they were done pushing the crate and it was heavy.

Before the two dockers can ask, they heard growling coming from the crate. "Did I hear growling?" The second Docker asked.

"Growling?" Soothsayer asked. "Oh those are those stuffed tigers with growling sound effects, it's the tiger from that Live action Aladdin remake."

"That movie came out months ago." The first docker replied.

"Well they had to make sure the stuffed tigers were safe, we don't want children to child on loose buttons." Soothsayer answered.

"I guess you have a point." The first docker asked and before Soothsayer can say anything else, the trio hear burping coming from the crate.

"Did you guys hear a burp?" The second docker asked. "Did it came from that crate?"

"That would be one of those baby dolls that burp." Soothsayer lied again.

"They still make those?" The first docker asked.

"Don't ask me, I'm just the guy who delivers things." Soothsayer said. "Anyway, I gotta go, my wife is excepting!" Soothsayer ran back to the driver side of the truck and began to drive away.

"That was weird." The second docker said.

"You're telling me, than again, I seen weirder like that one villain that dressed up like a bee." The First docker replied. "Anyway, you want to check out what's in the box?"

"Nah that can wait. It's our lunch break." The second docker said.

"Good, I need a rest from pushing that crate. It was like pushing that fat guy from that Wolverine movie and Java the Hutt." The first docker said as the two walked away.

Inside the truck, Soothsayer turned to the pets. "Excellent my friends." He says. "Our mission was successful."

"It was way too close." Charles said with his paws on the wheel. "I thought for sure we would've gotten caught once Tongri started growling and Petty burped."

"Yeah we got lucky." Cliff agreed as he pressed down on the gas. "But the job is done."

"But we are not out of the woods yet. They still have Vector to deal with." said Charles.

"Correct Charles. The fate of the world is in the hands of our heroes." Soothsayer said.

"So anyone want to go to Burping Burger?" Geo asked.

The Louds, Santiagos and Sam are walking inside the mall and they found Lyle next to the pretzel stand. "There you are little dude." Luna said.

"Yeah." Lyle said as he took a bite of his pretzel. "Have you guys tried this? It's delicious! I've heard stories about these but never had one. Best five bucks I ever spent!" He turns to the guy selling them. "You sir have a good treat!"

"Um thanks?" The guy replied confused.

"Ok let's go." Lori said. "But first things first."

The L-Crew and Lyle walked through the mall to discuss their plan in private and all of them were carrying soft pretzels.

"So that's the plan." Lori said as she bit her pretzel. "And damn these are good."

"Oh totally." Sam said. "Good call on buying soft pretzels Lori."

"Yeah." Lyle said with a soft pretzel in each hand. "So where's dad?"

"He's in his room back at home." said Lori. "I tried talking to him, but he didn't give me an answer."

"Is it about me?" Lyle asked.

"Honestly Lyle I don't know." Lori admits. "I think he could still be mad at is too so it could be either.

"But don't sweat it Lyle, I'm sure he'll be here." Luan assured him. "He hasn't let us down yet."

"And he won't." Lana and Lola say in unison.

"You think so?" Lyle asked.

"We know so. Hell he'll show up right when thinks begins to look bad for us." Lynn said.

Suddenly something comes crashing through the glass window of the mall's roof and lands hard on the ground. "That's our cue guys." Lori says. They all take cover and press their watches to become the L-Crew. They immediately run onto the scene. "Everyone clear the area now!"

"Hurry get out dudes!" Amplifier adds. Multiple Girl makes a few clones who begin to escort the people out. They immediately run to where the thing that crashed through the window landed and gasp when they see it's a battered Firecracker.

"Firecracker!" His sisters cry out before running to his side where Ms. Appear gently rest his head on her lap.

"Stay with me Linc." Ms. Appear whispers. "He seems to be alive but what did this?" Lyle looks up and his face pales at what he sees coming through the window. A hulking monster with grey skin with patches of purple spots on the top of it's head, shoulders, calves, three claws on each feet, hind legs that resembles an animal, a grey-purple tail, and what looks like ears on top of the head.

"Vector." Lyle gasped with fear in his voice. The L-Crew follow his gaze where they see the creature.

"That's Vector?" Parkour asked and Lyle nods.

"Yeah that's him." He replied. Vector looks down and gazes down at the L-Crew.

"Hmm. I don't know who you are or how you know who I am but it doesn't matter." Vector says as he slowly floats down to the ground. "I'll destroy you either way." Lyle growls and then turns to Firecracker.

"Damn it dad!" Lyle shouted. "You were so pissed off at me that you went to go fight Vector yourself? What the hell is wrong with you!?"

"Lyle calm down." Speed Queen ordered. "This is not the time or the place. Ms. Appear protect Firecracker. Amplifier go get Tongri and Petty. Everyone else, go for Vector. We can't let him destroy anybody this is our only chance!"

"Let's get him!" Crystal Princess shouted as she fired pink crystals at Vector, but smacks some of them with his tail.

Surge began firing a energy beam at Vector pushing him back a bit. But Vector managed to recover and fired his own energy beam at Surge, pushing her back to a wall.

Armor grabs Parkour and throws her at Vector who catches her and with his telekinesis before throwing her back at Armor. "I thought that was gonna work." Armor groaned.

"Same." Parkour said. Wildgirl charges forward as a rhino but Vector puts his hands up and stops her in her tracks.

"You seem desperate to try to defeat me though I've done nothing wrong." Vector said. "Curious. Perhaps you're desperate for what I haven't done yet."

Vector then tossed Wildgirl to the side, as he sees Genarocker charges towards Vector with her giant fists and begins to beat up Vector until Vector uses his telekinesis to stop the fists.

Speed Queen runs towards Vector and punches Vector in the gut, but he didn't felt that punch. "So much for that." Speed Queen said to herself.

Vector proceeds to punch Speed Queen into the ground before throwing her to the side. Multiple Girl and clones charge at Vector who launches them back with a energy blast.

Armor absorbs the concrete from a broken wall and forms his right hand into a hammer and attacks Vector at the knees, bring him down to his knees, but Vector uses his telekinesis time grab Armor and begins to crush him.

"Pathetic. I was expecting more." Vector said. He's then blasted from behind which causes him to drop Armor. Vector turns around to see Black Ice. "Another one. I haven't seen you yet. Should I be afraid?"

"You should be." Black Ice said as forms a sword and shield made of ice in her hands.

"It is you who should be afraid." Vector said.

"I fear nothing." Black Ice said before leaping forward and swinging her ice blade at Vector who countered it with an energy blade. Then with his other hand grabs Black Ice by the face and lifts her up.

"How about now?" Vector taunted. He raises his energy blade to strike her down but a large pink grabs his wrist. Vector glances over and sees Petty. "Who or what are you?"

"Me Petty." Petty said. Before Vector can respond, he feels a sudden pain in his other arm. He glances over and sees Tongri biting his arm that forces him to release Black Ice.

"Vermin." Vector growled right before he's punched in the face by Petty causing him to stagger. Vector gains his bearings and sees Petty and Tongri were now joined by Amplifier.

"Good job boys." Amplifier said. "Let's get him together."

Tongri lunges at Vector biting his arm, then Petty throws Amplifier towards Vector and surrounds her fist with lightning and gives the monster shocking punches to the face. Then Petty tackles Vector to the ground, where Amplifier delivers an electric kick to the ground as Petty begins to beat Vector. But Vector pushes the two off of him and gets back up.

Tongri lunges himself on Vector's back and bites his neck, but it was not strong enough to be fatal and Victor throws Tongri to the side. Amplifier gets back up and shoots a stream of lightning at Vector.

Vector puts up a barrier but Petty punches him in the side. "I've had enough." Vector growled. He blasts an energy beam at Petty then sends him flying towards the soft pretzel stand. Petty goes for another pounce but Vector catches him and tossed him into a toy store.

"That ain't good." Amplifier said. "Yo Prodigy where you at?"

"I'm coming up!" Prodigy shouted as she uses her telekinesis to lift shards of glass and throws them towards Vector. But Vector uses his telekinesis to stop the shards of glass.

"So much for that." Amplifier said.

"Wait for it." Prodigy said. Suddenly several vines pop up through the ground and wrap around Vector. Vector looks around and sees Greenthumb controlling the vines.

"Good work little sister." Prodigy said. But she spook too soon, Vector breaks free from the vines. "Dang it."

From where she was in her forcefield, Ms. Appear watched as her team tried to do what they could to stop Vector but to little success. She watched as Vector blocked a punch from Amplifier and proceeded to slam her to the ground before throwing her to the side. She looked down at her brother who was still unconscious.

"C'mon Linc." Ms. Appear whispers. "Wake up." Next to her Lyle let's out a growl.

"Who cares?" Lyle shouted. "It's all his fault that this isn't going as smoothly as it should've! But no he had to go after Vector by himself!"

"Lyle you don't know that!" Ms. Appear retorted. "But maybe we can find out. Prodigy! I need you!" Prodigy looks back and runs into the forcefield.

"Yes?" Prodigy asked.

"I need you to read Firecracker's mind." Ms. Appear ordered. "Maybe we can find out what really happened on the way here."

"Certainly." Prodigy said. She grabs Firecracker's face and looks into his mind. She saw several things but then she focused on her target. She then saw it. Firecracker flying over the city no doubt making his way to the mall when Vector suddenly came out of nowhere. She saw her brother trying to fight back but was overwhelmed. The memory ended with Firecracker going through the mall roof. Prodigy canceled the connection and turned to Ms. Appear. "He was ambushed. He didn't try to go after Vector by himself."

"Wait, Vector attacked him?" Ms. Appear asked.

"Yes, he was caught off guard when Vector attacked." Prodigy said.

"So he didn't go after Vector first." Lyle said.

"No he didn't." Prodigy said. "But I believe we have a bigger problem." She points to outside the forcefield and Ms. Appear and Lyle see Vector approaching them.

"So there were two others hiding." Vector said as he approached. He stands in front of the forcefield and he stares the three down and then glanced at Firecracker. "I'll admit he was tougher than I anticipated but as expected he was defeated. Now I'll finish the job and destroy you and your friends."

"Keep the forcefield up!" Prodigy shouted to Ms. Appear as focused on keeping the force field up as Vector began to punch his way through it.

"So much power." Ms. Appear groaned. "Having trouble keeping this up."

"He's breaking through!" Lyle shouted before turning to his unconscious father. "C'mon dad wake up." He heard a shout and saw Ms. Appear fall back as the forcefield disappeared. "Oh that's bad."

"Time for you to fall." Vector said. Before he can do anything, he is hit in the face by a fireball. Lyle turns to see Firecracker sitting up with his hand outstretched.

"Back away from my family." Firecracker said.

"Still have some fight left in you huh?" Vector asked.

"Some." Firecracker admitted as he got to his feet. "But that'll be enough to take you down." He then helps Ms. Appear to her feet and then helps Prodigy. "Especially when we're together."

"How inspiring, shame that I have to wipe you all off this planet." Vector said.

"We won't let you." Ms. Appear said as she forms two forcefield blades. "Let's get him!"

"I'll help too!" Lyle shouted.

"Then join in Lyle or else there won't be anymore left of him." Firecracker said as he ignited his fists.

Lyle surrounded his fists with energy and shoots a energy beam at Vector. Vector stubbles back as Ms. Appear charges at him as she attacks the monster with her forcefield blades.

"Is that all you have?" Vector growled. Prodigy then levitates up and raises her hands causing every bench and stand to float up before sending them flying right at Vector who puts up a barrier to block them. Once the barrier is down Firecracker flies in and his Vector with a flying right hand to the jaw. Vector grabs Firecracker's arm and throws him to the ground before flying into the air. "I will not be made a fool of!" He then starts shooting energy blasts all over the mall.

"Take cover!" Speed Queen orders.

The L-Crew ran away from the energy blasts as some of the heroes avoid the energy blasts. Ms. Appear put a force field up, but it breaks pushed Ms. Appear back. Speed Queen dodges two of the energy blasts, until the 3rd energy blast hits Speed Queen, knocking her to a wall.

"This ain't going well." Surge shouted as she tried to fly around to avoid the blasts only to get hit in the back knocking her out of the air. Greenthumb tries to block the blasts with her plant stalks but one of the blasts destroys it and comes straight for her but Petty runs in and grabs her out of the way of the blast.

"Man I hope things are going better in my time." Lyle said.

20 years in the future

Firecracker and Parkour slide backwards towards the wall of the base and as they reach the wall, they jump onto it feet first and launch themselves at Vector.

"So this is how it's gonna be." Vector growled.

"Damn right." Parkour growled. The two siblings throw right hands at Vector who catches the fists and throws them to the side.

"Why don't you just surrender?" Vector shouted. "It'll make your deaths less painful."

"Like hell we would!" Speed Queen yelled as she sped around Vector. "For twenty years we've been trying to stop you. Twenty years we've failed to protect the innocents that you mercilessly murdered just because you believe they're a disease. Well this is where we stop you! This is where your path of destruction ends!"

Vector started wheezing until he punches the ground causing Speed Queen to trip and fall to the ground. As Vector began to regain his breath and strength, he begins to freeze up thanks to Black Ice. But Vector shoots a energy beam at Black Ice knocking her down, but Genarocker flies up to Vector with her giant fists and begins to beat up Vector.

"This is for my family and my bandmates!" Genarocker shouted.

"Too bad you won't be able to avenge them." Vector says as he knocks Genarocker away with his tail. Amplifier then flies up and kicks Vector in the head followed by Armor coated in steel running up and punching Vector in the gut.

"You took everything from us." Armor said.

"And from everyone else. Now we're ending this here and now." Amplifier said.

"No you won't!" Vector shouts before blasting the floor that sends the two flying back. "You will not stop me!"

"Damn it." Ms. Appear growled. "He ain't giving in. Mr. Cuddles any changes yet?"

"The only change so far is that there's no report of a mall attack which means past Vector hasn't been defeated yet!"

"We'll call that progress." Crystal Queen said as she shot large crystals at Vector.

"Yes but nothing has changed physically yet." Prodigy pointed out as she launched crates at Vector. "Which means past us hasn't succeeded in stopping past Vector."

"Well they better kill Vector fast." Ms. Appear said as threw forcefield knives at Vector. "Or else their future will be our present."

"We just gotta do our part so that they can succeed!" Clyde said as he fired a laser at Vector from the air.

"Enough of this!" Vector shouted as he blocked the knives and lasers. He flies into the air and starts wildly shooting energy blasts all over.

"Hit the deck!" Firecracker shouts. "Petty protect the kids!"

Petty ran towards the kids and shielded them from the energy blasts. Ms. Appear puts up a forcefield to protect herself along with Genarocker and Wildgirl.

Lemmy looks up at his brother and sees him wincing in pain. "You good bro?" He asks.

"Petty good." Petty growled. "Need to protect family." Lemmy then glances at his cousins.

"We gotta do something." Lemmy says.

"Yeah but what?" Leo asks.

"We can use the weapons that aunt Lisa made." Lemmy said.

"Lemmy, you can't be serious?!" Leo asked. "She told us not to touch those!"

"Yeah but I think she can make an exception this one time." Lemmy said.

"Ok but how do we get there?" Mila asked. Lemmy thinks about it and turns to Leo.

"You think you can get his attention for a few seconds?" He asks.

"Dude, it would be my pleasure." Leo said before turning to Petty. "You up for this big guy?"

"Petty, up." Petty replied.

"Good, let's go!" Leo said.

"Good. I'll distract while you lay in the heavy hits." Leo said. "Ready?"

"Ready." Petty said as the two charged towards Vector.

"Hey Vector! Why don't you go enter an ugly contest!" Leo shouted.

"Leo, get out of here and somewhere safe!" Speed Queen exclaimed.

Leo ignored as he continues to mock Vector. "Your mother was a Xenomorph!" He taunted. Vector growled and fired a energy blast at Leo who speeds around it. "Wow you shoot worse than a Stormtrooper!"

"Insolent vermin!" Vector growls as he prepares another energy blast but gets rocked by a superman punch from Petty.

"Ha! How did that feel?" Leo taunted as he sped to different parts of the base. "Over here! Now I'm over here! Right here ugly! Nope over here now!"

"What's he doing?" Wildgirl asked Greenthumb who shrugs.

"No clue." Greenthumb answered. They hear running and they see Lemmy and Mila with the triplets running to Prodigy's lab. "I think the the kids have a plan."

"Then let's help them do it then." Wildgirl said before going tyrannosaurus rex.

Vector shoot another energy blast at Leo, but he dodges again by running to another part of the room. "You couldn't even hit the broadside of a mountain!" Leo taunted.

"I shall end the spawn of the disease!" Vector shouted, but before he can fire the blast, Wildgirl in T-Rex mode headbutts Vector and than bites his left arm.

"Yeah dino power!" Leo cheered. Vector blasts Wildgirl's face, knocking her down and turning her back to human. Before Vector could regain his bearings, Greenthumb dives in and hits a heel kick to the top of his hea before doing a flip and landing on her feet. On the sidelines Soothsayer and Mr. Cuddles held up signs with the number ten on it.

"And she sticks the landing." Greenthumb said.

Vector recovers from the attack, only to get whacked by a crystal hammer by Crystal Queen. "No one hurts my twin sister!" She shouted as she smacked Vector with her crystal hammer.

"I'll do more than just hurt her this time." Vector says as he whacks Crystal Queen who lands next to Greenthumb.

"I take it Lana told you that the kids have a plan?" Greenthumb asked as she avoided a energy beam.

"I think so." Crystal Queen said.

"You think or you know?" Greenthumb asked.

"Well she said the kids are doing something and I see Leo running around Vector while mocking him so I'm just assuming." Crystal Queen replies.

"Maybe you should try paying attention instead of jumping in." said Greenthumb. "But let's keep Vector busy until the kids get back."

Leo continues to taunt Vector until Vector let's out a shout of frustration and shoots the ground in front of Leo sending him flying forward. "That hurt." He says. Vector stands over him and aims his hand at his head.

"I'll enjoy your death more than I should." Vector growled. He charges up a beam.

"Hey!" Vector turns to see Lemmy with a blaster in his hands with a large muzzle. "This here is a prototype weapon designed by my aunt. I have no clue what it does but it has multiple colored buttons so I pressed one and it went from being a standard blaster to this. So, do you want to surrender or do I have to use this?"

"I will not surrender and I doubt you know how to use that." Vector said as he walked towards Lemmy.

Lemmy started to pushed on the multiple colored buttons and when he pressed the orange button a powerful beam is fired and hits Vector sending him through a wall. "So that's what it does?" Lemmy said. "I am so keeping this blaster!"

"Petty agree." Petty says. Lemmy then turns to Genarocker.

"Can I keep this?" He asks holding the blaster.

"We'll talk about it later." Genarocker said.

Vector gets back and growls. "I'll kill you and your parents." Vector said.

"You will not touch a hair on my little rockstar!" Amplifier shouted as she charged up with Electricity Even her eyes flowed pale purple.

"You think I'm afraid?" Vector scoffed. "You have nothing." Amplifier growled and prepared to strike Vector but Lemmy stopped her.

"What gives little dude?" Amplifier asked. Lemmy doesn't answer and just points at the wall. Amplifier looks to where he's pointing and her eyes widen at what she sees: Mila scaling the wall. "What the what?"

"What is Mila doing?" Parkour asked.

"What are you guys looking at?" Multiple Girl asked as she looks up and sees her daughter scaling the wall. "Mila?!"

Mila looks down and puts of finger to her lips to tell her mother not to shout before continuing to scale the wall. "How is she doing that?" Parkour asked.

"We found these cool gauntlets and boots in aunt Lisa's lab." Lemmy explains. Mila then goes to the ceiling and starts moving along it until she's right over Vector.

"Here goes nothing." Mila whispers before letting go of the ceiling.

"OH MY GOD!" Multiple Woman shouted. Vector gives them a confused look before looking up and sees Mila falling right towards him. Suddenly, one of Mila's gauntlet is surrounded by a strange energy and once she gets close, she hits Vector in the head sending him face first into the ground with Mila landing on her feet.

"Wow that was a rush." Mila said before brought into a bone crushing hug by her mother.

"Mila! What were you thinking?!" Multiple Woman asked as she continued to hug her daughter.

"Mom, you're hurting me." Mila said.

"Only because I care." Multiple Woman said. They hear a groan and they see Vector getting back to his feet.

"No more games." Vector growled as he formed to energy blades. "You will all die!" He charges forward with the L-Crew running to meet him.

"Man I hope Lyle is having better luck in the past." Leo says.

Present day

Lyle crashed into the wall with a groan before sliding to the floor. Once Lyle regained his bearings, he saw that they were no closer to defeating Vector as nothing they did seemed to work. He looked and saw that Vector was currently battling both Ms. Appear and Crystal Princess with his energy blades while Surge fired energy blasts from above.

Vector looks up and gets hit by the energy blasts shot by Surge. But he recovers and used his energy blades to attack Ms. Appear and Crystal Princess, the two both blocked with their weapons but it was not enough, as the attack pushed the two back.

Crystal Princess looked at her swords and noticed that they were cracking up. "Nothing we do seems to hurt him." Crystal Princess said.

"Yeah what gives?" Wildgirl asked as she circled him as a hawk before attempting to dive bomb him before turning into a elephant to try to ram him but he stops her midair with his telekinesis.

"Pathetic." Vector said before throwing her to side where she hits Petty and Parkour. "I suggest you surrender now. You can't win."

"We're not gonna surrender." Armor said. "Not now or ever!"

"Then you can die." Vector growled.

Amplifier threw electric blasts at Vector, but he dodges the electric blasts, but three of them hits Vector right in the chest. "Should have aimed for the head." Amplifier grunted.

"Nothing is working." Lyle growled in frustration. "No matter what we hit him with he walks out without a scratch. It's almost like none of our powers can hurt him." Lyle then gasps. "That's it. Our powers don't work on him! Dad always said Vector was created to specifically destroy metahumans. That explains why nothing is working. But if our powers can't hurt him, what can?" He thinks about it and something pops into his head. "What about his own attacks? If we find a way to push back one of his attacks, we might be able to take him down. But it'll probably need to be the attack he uses to destroy cities but the question is how do we get him to fire it?" He then sees Speed Queen circling Vector and hitting him from different angles and Vector getting increasingly frustrated with not being able to hit her which allowed Multiple Girl to hit him with a knee. And something Lyle noticed was that Vector was starting to lose his composure. "And I think I have an idea." He looks around and sees Firecracker help Surge get back to her feet and heads towards them.

"This is getting ridiculous." Surge growled.

"You're telling me, he's not getting hurt by our attacks!" Firecracker said.

"I don't know how much longer we can hold up?" Surge asked.

Lyle runs up to them and stands beside them. "I think I have an idea." Lyle said. "Dad always told me that Vector was created to destroy metas which is why our attacks aren't working but I have an idea."

"What is it?" Surge asked.

"We could use his own attacks against him." Lyle said.

"Yeah sure let's just have him attack us and bounce something back at him." Firecracker said sarcastically. "That seriously can't be your plan."

"Well you got any ideas?" Lyle fired back.

Firecracker began to think it over and sighed. "Fine we'll do your plan." Firecracker said.

"Right so how do we get him to launch this big attack?" Surge asked. Lyle thinks about it and then snaps his fingers.

"We force this Vector to lose his composure." Lyle answered. "My Vector has so much composure that nothing gets to him so he doesn't lose his cool. This Vector isn't as composed so we can force him to lose his cool and try to straight up end it."

"In that case. Let's make him lose his cool." Surge said. "All of us."

"Really?" Lyle asked.

They both look at Firecracker who forms a small smile and nods. "Yeah. All of us." He says. "Besides, you're a Loud, making people lose their cool is what we do best."

"Then let's get this son of a bitch." Lyle glared.

"Lyle, language." Surge said with her arms folded.

"Sorry." Lyle said as they ran in to rejoin the battle. As they ran in Firecracker pressed a button on his watch.

"Guys we have a plan." He said. "We need to make Vector lose his composure so that he'll launch his city destroying attack. But instead of hitting the mall, we're gonna send it right back at him."

"You sure that's a good idea?" Wildgirl asked.

"Maybe we can have him killed with his own attack like Frieza." Armor suggested.

"Look I know it's not the best plan but it's all we got." Speed Queen said.

"Plus it was Lyle's idea so it's his fault if it fails." Firecracker said.

"I'm prepared to take that responsibility." said Lyle.

"Good, let's make Vector lose his cool." Speed Queen said.

"Alright!" Wildgirl shouted. "Parkour time for maneuver stinky face!"

"Right!" Parkour said. Wildgirl goes skunk and Parkour picks her up. "Ready?"

"Throw me." Wildgirl said. Parkour nods and throws Wildgirl at Vector who catches her.

"You're a despicable little creature." Vector growled.

"Well if you hate me now, you're really gonna hate this." Wildgirl said before spraying Vector in the face.

"Ahhh!" Vector exclaimed as he throws Wildgirl to the side.

Black Ice froze the ground as Vector stumbles back from the spray and slips on the ice and lands on his back. Vector groans as he gets back up.

Suddenly he's hit in the side then in the back and then gut. However when he looked around, he saw nobody. "Where are you!?" Vector shouted. Ms. Appear then appears in front of him.

"Right here." Ms. Appear said. However before Vector could do anything Tongri leaps over Ms. Appear and right onto Vector who remains on his feet. Vector tries to get Tongri off of him but Petty rushes in and rams his shoulder into his stomach.

Then Armor forms his fists into hammers and begins to whack Vector in the chest with the hammer fists. Vector tried to smack Armor to the side, but he dodges just in time. Then Genarocker forms her right arm into a cannon and fired a puke of junk towards Vector and hits him in the back.

Vector slides back and finally pulls Tongri off of him and throws him to the side. "You think you can win?" He growled. "Think again!"

"We know so." Surge shouted as she threw energy balls at Vector hitting him at once.

Vector puts up a barrier and blocks the attack but Parkour comes from the side and Black Ice comes from the other with her ice gauntlets. Vector puts both hands up and catches their fists before before throwing away. Crystal Princess then charged up with a crystal blade along with Ms. Appear with her forcefield blades. They both try to slash at him but Vector forms two energy blades and counters them.

Both Crystal Princess and Ms. Appear both block Vector's attacks, as the two continue to fight against Vector. Vector than raises his blade and swings it towards Crystal Princess, but she forms a crystal shield with her left hand and blocks the attack.

Wildgirl jumps from the second floor and turns into a tiger and bites into Vector's neck. Vector's blades disappear and attempts to take Wildgirl off of his back, until Wildgirl turns a monkey and moves around. Speed Queen runs towards Vector and kicks him in the right shin.

"Losing your composure yet?" Speed Queen mocked. Vector let's out a growl and shakes Wildgirl off and throws her into a pet store before blasting the ground that sends Speed Queen flying back. Multiple Girl and her clones attempt to swarm Vector. Vector grabs two clones and slams them together. Another clone tries to sneak up behind him but Vector grabs her with his tail and throws her into another clone leaving only the original.

"You stand alone." Vector told her. Multiple Girl shakes her head.

"You're wrong." She tells him. "I'm never alone. I'm all the help I need." She then makes more clones and more and more until there are twenty Multiple Girl clones surrounding Vector. "If anyone is alone, it's you. Did I say that right Linky?"

"Yep!" Firecracker shouts back.

"Thanks!" Muiltipe Girl replied.

The clones all attacked Vector even dog pile onto Vector and began beating him up, until Vector forces them off of him. Then bolts of lightning hits him in the back, he turns around and sees Amplifier floating in the air with her hands sparking with electricity.

"You've been thunderstruck!" Amplifier shouted as she shot a stream of lightning at Vector.

Vector puts a hand up and the electricity stops. Vector then redirects the electricity back at Amplifier who tries to stop it. Meanwhile, Wildgirl crawls out of the pet store where she sees Amplifier trying to push back her own attack but with little success.

"Dang it." Wildgirl growled. "He's still not losing his composure. He's still so calm. Maybe because nothing is hurting him. Maybe we need to do something else to force him to launch that attack." The thinks about it and remembers when she fought her alternate male self, specifically how she defeated him. "Could I possibly do it again? I can't hold it for long though so I'll need to do what I need to do quick." She takes a deep breath. "I guess it's now or never. Let's do this!"

Amplifier is being pushed back and right before both the two head a roar, Amplifier cancels her attack, as Vector looks behind him and see Wildgirl in dragon form. She walks towards Vector and snarls.

"This again?" Amplifier asked.

"Is that Lana?" Crystal Princess asked in a shaky voice and Amplifier nodded.

"She turned into it when we fought our genderbent counterparts." She explained. "But she wasn't able to hold it long. Just long enough to defeat Leif. I saw her do it from the roof of the base."

Wildgirl swats Vector to the side causing him to hit a cellphone kiosk on impact. Vector gets back up and charges towards Wildgirl, but Wildgirl breaths fire on the monster slowing him down a bit. "I must finish off the child." Vector grunted.

As Wildgirl breathed fire on Vector she slowly felt herself being unable to hold the form much longer. "No not now!" Wildgirl thought. "Just a little longer!"

As Vector got closer and closer to Wildgirl he begins to show signs of defeat. "Can't stop now." Vector grunted, but as soon he reached the dragon he fell down to the ground on his back.

Wildgirl let's out a roar of victory and raises her arm to finish him off but suddenly, Wildgirl turns back to human exhausted. "Wow that took a lot more out of me that time." She says. "Maybe it was the fire breath." She then sees a shadow looming over her and she looks up to see a very angry Vector. "Um, you aren't angry about the fire breath thing are you?"

"Very." Vector growled.

"Figures." Wildgirl muttered and tried to change form but surprisingly she couldn't. "Hey what gives?"

"I don't know. But it'll make it easier to end your-" Before Vector could finish Genarocker smacks Vector to the ground with her giant fists.

"You talk too much." Genarocker said, then she then turned to Wildgirl and kneed down. "You alright?"

"Yeah, but I can't turn into any other animals." Wildgirl pointed out.

"Then take cover and try to figure it out." Genarocker told her. "Besides I think he's starting to lose composure." Wildgirl nods and runs off while Vector gets back to his feet.

"You will all die!" Vector shouted. "All of you will die!"

"Then so something about it!" Lyle goaded. Vector let's out a shout and flies up to where he's just above the mall. He puts a hand up and a large black ball of energy forms causing Lyle's eyes to widen. "Holy crap that's bigger than I thought it'd be!"

"This is going to end in Disaster isn't it?" Parkour asked.

"Most likely." Crystal Princess said.

"This is where you die!" Vector shouted before throwing the large ball of energy.

"Well here goes nothing." Lyle said before shooting energy and fire at the ball to try to push it back.

But no matter how hard Lyle tried to push it back, the ball kept coming closer. "We need to give Lyle a hand!" Surge shouted as she flew towards her son and shot an energy beam towards the ball pushing it back some more.

"You think that will do anything?" Vector shouted. "Think again!" He shoves his hand forward causing the ball push the beams back.

"Damn it." Surge growled. "It's too much. We can't push it back!" Suddenly the two beams are joined by a stream of fire. The two look to see Firecracker shooting fire at the ball.

"Does this help?" Firecracker said with a smirk and the ball slowly starts to get pushed back again.

"It's working!" Surge shouted as she continued to push back the ball.

"How is this possible!?" Vector shouted.

"We got this!" Lyle said. Vector lets out a growl and surrounds himself with aura before pushing both hands forward which pushes the ball towards them again.

"We need more power!" Firecracker exclaimed as he, Surge and Lyle all fires back with all their might against the ball, but all it was doing is slowing it down.

"Damn it we gotta push it back!" Lyle shouted. "If we don't we're screwed!" Firecracker let's out a shout and soon he's surrounded by aura shaped like a wolf. The aura increases his flame but it still doesn't push the ball back.

"Ah come on!" Firecracker shouted. "That's supposed to work!"

"Well maybe you need a little help!" Amplifier said also surrounded by aura shaped like an eagle.

Amplifier then fired a lightning stream at the ball pushing back. "You will need my help." Black Ice said with also surrounded by an aura shaped like a raven and then fired an ice beam at the ball.

The ball stops moving but doesn't go towards Vector. "Are we seriously evenly matched here!?" Firecracker shouts before turning to the rest of the L-Crew. "You guys need to get his attention! If you can divert his attention long enough we might be able to push this back!"

"That's crazy Firecracker!" Speed Queen shouted back. "Prodigy what are the odds of that working?"

"Well it's a high risk. But we don't have much of a choice in the matter." said Prodigy.

"Alright everyone try to get his attention!" Speed Queen ordered. Everyone nodded and began their plan.

Back in the air Vector look down at the heroes in the power struggle. "Even with your extended power, it will not be enough to stop me. I am Inevitable." Vector said, but then a cinnamon bun hits Vector in the face, he looks down and see Parkour throwing stuff at him.

"Yeah and we're the L-Crew!" Parkour shouted before throwing a bench at Vector who uses his tail to smack it out of the air. "Damn. Wildgirl give me more stuff!" Wildgirl salutes and heads into a nearby hardware store. She then comes out with several tools.

"Try these." Wildgirl suggested.

"Perfect." Parkour said as she threw every tool at Vector, even a wrench in his eye.

However Vector just growled in irritation. "Well that didn't work." Wildgirl said.

"Tell me about it." Parkour groaned. "Hey Petty you got anything." Petty comes up and looks around til he eyes something.

"Petty see something." Petty says.

"Well throw it." Parkour said. She then feels Petty's hand grab her head and lift her off the ground. Before she can say anything, Petty throws her right towards Vector.

Parkour hits Vector in the face, then held onto Vector and began beating him up. "How you like me now?!" Parkour shouted.

Vector lets out a grunt and shakes Parkour off of him causing her to fall towards the ground where she's caught by Prodigy's telekinesis. "How did that work out for you elder sibling?" Prodigy asked sarcastically.

"At least I was on him." Parkour argues.

"Doesn't matter if you were on him, we made no progress." Speed Queen growled. "But we're wasting time. Everyone get up there and strike him down! We can't waste time!"

Genarocker forms a cannon and fired a pile of junk at Vector. Then Crystal Princess fired a large crystal at Vector's chest. "Not bad Crystal Princess." Genarocker said.

"Your not so bad yourself." Crystal Princess says. "But we need more!"

"I'll give you more!" Armor says before climbing into Genarocker's cannon. "I'm locked and loaded!"

Genarocker fired Armor out of the cannon, Armor flew through the air and forms a hammer in his right hand and smacks Vector with it.

"How'd you like that?" Armor mocked as he fell back towards the ground.

Then a series of tools are thrown towards Vector, hitting him on impact and they were thrown by Prodigy. "Everyone strike now!" Prodigy said.

Speed Queen while surrounded by aura shaped like a cheetah runs up a wall and once she's at a decent height, she launches herself off the wall and hits a corkscrew uppercut on Vector that causes him to grunt in annoyance. She's then caught by Prodigy. Crystal Princess places her hand on the floor and a giant ramp made out of crystals form. Multiple Girl with aura shaped like crane surrounding her followed by Petty and Tongri race up the ramp.

Multiple Girl clones herself into 3 clones and the clones attacks jumped off and they each kicked Vector in the gut. Then Petty jumped off and punches Vector in face. Then Tongri lunges at Vector swipes his right paw on Vector's face.

Vector let's out a growl but it doesn't cause the energy ball to move back much. "Nothing's working!" Surge shouted. "We can't push it back!"

"This is the end for you vermin!" Vector shouted. "You will not stop me!" Suddenly a energy blast comes out of nowhere and hits Vector in the side of the head. He turns to see Replicate with his arm up and aimed at him. "How dare you?"

"I dare because I can." Replicate says. "Tetherby thinks he can rid of me he has another thing coming. Also I'd pay attention if I were you." He turns and walks off.

"Hurry while he's not focused on us!" Firecracker shouts. "Full power!"

Firecracker, Surge, Amplifier, Black Ice and Lyle all focus on making their beams stronger and all five it all their might. The beams got strong and began to push the baller even further, right back to Vector.

"No, it can't be the end!" Vector exclaimed.

"Oh it is Vector!" Lyle called out. "This is where you fall!" With one final push the the beams overpowered the ball of energy and send it back at Vector engulfing him. Vector lets out a scream as he dissolves into nothing.

20 years in the future.

The L-Crew were breathing heavily as they stared down their enemy. They had barely done any damage to him and they were exhausted. "You've fought well L-Crew but this is where it ends." Vector growled. He then stops when he starts to feel strange. "Something isn't right. What's happening?" Suddenly Vector begins to fade in and out. "What?"

"He's starting to fade." Prodigy said. "Which means only one thing."

"Our past selves defeated Vector." Speed Queen said.

"So it seems." Vector said. "I lost. Defeated by the very beings I was created to destroy." He let's out a sigh. "This is the end."

"It is Vector. Everyone you killed is back and everything that you destroyed never got destroyed. Your reign of fear is over Vector." Firecracker said as he watched Vector faded away for good from existence.

"Well then." Vector said. "You win." He then disappears into nothing.

"Whoa he didn't even seem angry that he lost." Lemmy said.

"He saw no reason to be because it'd be useless." Black Ice said. "He was gonna disappear no matter what so he accepted his fate."

"Mommy mommy!" They all turn to see the triplets running towards them. Parkour smiles and bends down where she scoops up all three of them in her arms. "Did you beat him?" Cara asked. Parkour nods.

"Sure did baby." Parkour said before kissing the heads of her children.

"Also there's a guy outside the base." Cole said.

"A guy outside of the base?" Parkour asked.

"He's tan and he has a baseball cap on." CJ said.

"Could it be him." Parkour wondered, she gets up and runs to the base's entrance.

When she gets out there she sees a tan man about thirty-three years old wearing a baseball hat and jersey. The man looks at her and smiles while Parkour covers her mouth with her hand. "Hey Lynn." The man says. "How's it going?"

Parkour was lost for words when she sees the man and goes in for a hug, but not enough to crush him. "Francisco, I'm glad you're here." Parkour smiled weakly.

"Me too." Francisco said. "Don't even know what happened to be honest but I'm glad to be back with you." The two continued to hug when they hear a small voice.

"Mommy?" The two separate and see the triplets standing in the entranceway.

"It's ok kids." Parkour says gently. "C'mere. I want you to meet someone." The three hesitantly come towards the two and stop by their mother. "Cole, CJ and Cara, I want you too meet Francisco. Kids, this is your dad."

"Whoa. Triplets." Francisco says in disbelief. "I can't believe it." He crouches down to their level. "Hey there." The three don't move and try to hide behind Parkour.

"Go on. Say hi." Parkour urges gently.

The triplets were didn't say a word until Cara decided to introduce herself first. "Hi, daddy, I'm Cara." Cara introduced.

"Hi, Cara. " Francisco replied. "And what are your brothers' name?"

Cole and CJ both looked each other gulped nervously. "I'm Cole." Cole introduced.

"My name is CJ, dad." CJ said.

"CJ huh?" Francisco asked and CJ nodded. "You know what the 'C' stands for?" CJ shrugs. "It's stands for Cisco. Your name is Cisco Jr. Cisco was my nickname given to me by your mother so your full name is Francisco Jr. But CJ works better."

"I like CJ better." CJ said.

"It's great to have you back Cisco." Parkour said.

"It's great to be back." Francisco says before they kiss. Once they separate they're immediately tackled by their sons who then try to wrestle their dad to the ground while laughing excitedly. Parkour laughs at the sight before looking at her daughter. Cara flashes her a big smile and the two join in the family fun. Inside the base, the rest of the L-Crew are making plans to go after survivors when Ms. Appear hears a groan. She turns around and sees Maggie sitting up on the table.

"Maggie!" Ms. Appear cheered before running up to her and engulfing Maggie in a large hug. "You're alive!"

"Luan? What happened?" Maggie questioned.

"Vector got killed in the past and that undid everything he made in the past." Ms. Appear explained.

"So I'm alive again?" Maggie asked and Ms. Appear nods. "Why does it feel like that isn't how it works?"

"Time travel is weird." Ms. Appear said with a shrug. "So you want to come to my wedding?"

"Yeah sure why not." Maggie answered.

Genarocker is pushing some of the damaged crates out the base when she hears something land outside causing her to stop what she's doing. "Could it be?" She whispers. She immediately runs outside and gasps at what she sees. Replicate. "Dad?"

"Hey Samantha." Replicate replied, Genarocker ran up to Replicate and hugged him.

"So Vector's dead?" Replicate asked.

"He died in the past and we don't have to suffer this bad future." said Genarocker.

"So it actually worked." Replicate said with a chuckle. "Color me surprised."

"But it's over now." Genarocker said. She then gasps. "If you're alive then that means the Terror Crew are alive again!"

"Don't worry about them." Replicate assured her. "I saw them on the way here. They looked like they were heading home."

"Good." Genarocker said.

"Hey mom?" Lemmy said as he and Petty came to the doorway of the base. "Mom wants to know if you're gonna finish cleaning up the crates." He then sees Replicate. "Who's the old guy?"

"The old guy is your grandfather." Genarocker replied.

"I think you need to respect your elders grandson." Replicate said.

Lemmy and Petty exchange a glance before approaching Replicate. Once they're right in front of him, Lemmy looks him up and down. "You are not what I expected." He says finally. "You're a lot more well built than I thought you'd be."

"I'm not like most people my age." Replicate told him before looking at Petty. "So you adopted the rubber monster."

"Petty's able to face off against the Terror Crew. But he can't fend for himself." Sam said.

"Then you apparently know what you're doing." Replicate jokes.

"He's a great big brother to Lemmy." Sam replied.

"And you're a good mother to them." Replicate said.

Inside the base, Mila and Leo were talking about what went down. "Man I can't believe Vector is gone." Leo said.

"Yeah. I wonder how Lyle is doing." Mila says.

Present time

At the base the L-Crew and Lyle were getting patched up by Mr. Cuddles while Soothsayer was working with Lana. Lyle sat on a crate processing what went down.

"Man I can't believe we killed Vector?" Lyle said. "We just turned him into dust, I wonder how my cousins handled Vector before he faded away?"

"They probably celebrated." Lincoln said as Mr. Cuddles wrapped a bandage around his waste. "I mean from what I can tell you have really no formal training and you aren't that strong yet."

"Thanks for the confidence dad." Lyle said sarcastically.

"I wasn't finished." Lincoln said. "But from what you told us from Petty's fight with that fusion, you guys are crafty and creative. That comes a long way in our line of work."

"Well I guess you're right." Lyle said. He turns his attention to Lana and Soothsayer with the latter having the former turn into various animals.

"Now turn into a duck." Soothsayer told her and Lana did. "Koala." Lana turns into a koala. "Stegosaurus." Lana turns into a stegosaurus. "It seems that your powers are working fine."

"Ok but how come I couldn't after I turned into the dragon though?" Lana asked. "I didn't have that problem last time."

"Ah. That my small friend was a different set of circumstances." Soothsayer told her. "When you turned into the dragon last time, the battle was over. You had no need to turn into animals so you didn't notice. For this time, the fight wasn't over so therefore you noticed your powers not working."

"Oh." Lana said understanding.

"And another thing." Soothsayer continues. "Dragons are very powerful creatures and very few can stand up to them. However turning into the dragon puts a lot of stress on not just your body but your mind because both are trying to hold the form together because from what I've seen, you can only hold it for a few seconds before you are forced back to human. So until you can fully control the dragon form, I suggest you only use it as a last resort."

"You got it. Only use my dragon form as a last resort only." Lana said.

"So now that Vector's gone, what's gonna happen to us in the future?" Lola asked.

"Whatever you want it to be Lola." Soothsayer said.

"I mean it should be better now right?" Leni asked. "Our future is set."

"Nothing is set in stone Leni." Lisa said. "Things could still change."

"Agreed." Soothsayer said. "But Sam, you still seemed bothered by something." Sam looks up from where bandaging her own wrist.

"It's nothing but I think my dad helped us at the mall." Sam says. Everyone gasps.

"How can you be sure?" Lori asks.

"It's just how he is." Sam says. "He does things but when he does he always seems to have an agenda surrounding it."

"That explains the random energy blast that suddenly appeared." Lynn says. "But if he helped us, is that really necessarily a bad thing? Sure he's a enemy but he's also been an ally. Maybe we just let him do him and only get involved if whatever he's doing effects us.

"Yeah sounds like a plan." Luna said.

"But if he does have a agenda. We better keep an eye on him. He might be up to something?" Ronnie Anne said.

"And then we'll handle him." Lori says. "But we can worry about this another day. But now, Lyle needs to go home."

"Yeah that's true aunt Lori." Lyle said. "I need to get back to my time."

"We're gonna miss you little dude." Luna said.

"We had a great time Lyle." Luan laughed. "Get it?"

"Take care of everyone ok?" Lana says.

"Will do." Lyle says. He turns to Ronnie Anne who pulls him into a hug.

"Take care of yourself ok?" Ronnie Anne tells him. "Eat your vegetables, brush your teeth, look both ways before crossing the street and respect your elders." Lyle chuckled and Lincoln steps forward.

"Ronnie Anne, I think he gets it." Lincoln said with a laugh. "But seriously take care and here's a little something to help with your new siblings." He hands him a notebook.

"Lincoln Loud's guide to younger siblings." Lyle read. "Thanks dad."

"You're welcome. You need if for your future brothers or sisters." Lincoln said.

"Well thanks for the advice dad." Lyle said as he walked back to his time machine.

Lyle gets in the time machine and turns around where he sees the L-Crew waving at him. With a smile he waves back. "See you in a few years!" Luan calls.

"See you!" Lyle said. The time machine closes and Lyle presses some buttons on the time machine that starts it up. The time machine then vanishes.

20 years into the future

The time machine appears in the middle of the base. The hatch opens up and Lyle steps out. "Home sweet home." He says. Once he's back on the ground, he's suddenly tackled by his cousins.

"Welcome back Lyle!" Mila said.

"How was the past?" CJ asked.

"Well I discovered soft pretzels so it was awesome." Lyle said.

"Did you bring back any souvenirs?" Cole asked. Lyle shakes his head.

"Sorry buddy." Lyle said. "Didn't have time."

"Awww." The triplets say before Cole sees something in the time machine.

"You liar!" He says. "You have something right there." Lyle looks at him confused and when he turns around he sees their's a box under his seat.

"Wonder how I missed this?" Lyle wondered. He goes in and pulls it out. Once he does he sees it's a box of soft pretzels with a note on it. "What's this? 'Just a little gift for helping us out.' Signed your past family. Oh cool. Soft pretzels."

"I guess you had a great time?" Leo asked.

"I did. I discovered what malls use to be like before Vector's attack." Lyle said.

"Sweet." Lemmy said. "But since you altered time, the mall is no longer destroyed so Aunt Leni wants to take us all there."

"Wait, it worked?" Lyle asked.

"Of course it did." Mila said. "Come outside quick!"

The kids walked outside and Lyle's eyes widened at the new future. Instead of ruins of a destroyed city, it's a city filled with life, kids are running around playing, people walking around the city, flying cars, and some tall buildings.

"This is the new timeline?" Lyle asked.

"Looks like it." Lemmy said. "You did it cuz."

"It looks amazing." Lyle said. "It'll take some time to get use to."

"But it'll be totally rad in the end." Lemmy said. "Now I think that there's someone waiting for you."

"You're right. I think know where to find them." Lyle said and ran off.

Lyle ran towards the living room where he sees his parents sitting on the couch. "Mom, dad." Lyle said.

"Lyle. Is that you?" Ronnie Anne asked as she got up from the couch.

"You're back kido and you survived." Lincoln said as he got up and the two gave their son a hug.

"My little firefly has come home." Ronnie Anne said. "Did you get any diseases from the past?"

"I might've gotten a cold but other than that I feel good." Lyle said. "I also got soft pretzels."

"Soft pretzels? I can't remember the last time I had one." Ronnie Anne said.

"Neither do I." Lincoln said.

"I know right?" Lyle said. "Also can we finally move out of the base? I'm kinda getting sick of sharing a room with Leo."

"That can be arranged." Lincoln said. "Come to think of it we also need to get pet supplies for our dog."

"We have a dog?!" Lyle asked.

"We do." Lincoln said as the border collie enters the room and licks Lyle's face as he laughs.

"Whoa down girl!" Lyle said while laughing. "This was the one you were feeding right?" Lincoln nods.

"Yep." He says. "And your aunt now has a kitten that she saved from Great Lakes City that she named Coconut. And on that subject, what do you want name our new pet?"

"Charlie." Lyle said.

"Why Charlie?" Lincoln asked.

"She kind reminds me of Charles. So why not Charlie?" Lyle replied.

'I don't have a problem with Charlie." Ronnie Anne says while giving Lincoln a look. Lincoln not wanting to upset his pregnant wife sighs.

"Alright Charlie it is." Lincoln said. "Now I believe your adoring fans are waiting for you." Lyle looks at him confused when he hears a commotion coming from behind him. He turns around to see his aunts and uncles along with his cousins, Maggie and Carol with Replicate following slowly behind.

"Thanks for saving the future little dude." Luna said.

"Yeah we wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you." said Carol.

"Wow the authors really brought Carol back offscreen." Lincoln whispers to Ronnie Anne.

"That's probably not gonna go over well." Ronnie Anne whispers back. Lyle soon finds himself being picked up and placed on Petty's shoulders.

"Little cousin did it!" Petty cheered as everyone joined in.

"Indeed he did." Soothsayer said as he and Mr. Cuddles pushed their way through the crowd. "He saved the future and the L-Crew while bringing back friends and family." He casts a glance at Francisco who had his arm around Lynn's shoulders with the triplets in front of them. "And one who probably didn't wish to be saved." He casts a glance at Replicate who was standing in the back of the crowd with his arms crossed. Lincoln approached Replicate followed by his sisters. Both sides stare each other down not saying anything.

"Kinda surprised to see you here." Lincoln comments. "Especially after you went off the grid for twenty years."

"I needed to get off the grid to survive and recover my strength." Replicate said.

"So you hid from Vector?" Lincoln asked.

"I don't hide." Replicate said. "I prefer lie in wait and strike."

"For 20 years?" Lincoln asked.

"I even helped people get to safety." Replicate said.

"C'mon Linc, give the old man some space." Lori said with amusement.

"Who are you calling old?" Replicate growled.

"Probably the sixty-something year old standing in front of us." Luan answered casually.

"Still making jokes I see." Replicate says with a sigh.

"You want to fight about it?" Parkour challenged with a smirk. "We still need to do the tie breaker." The two sides stare each other down when Replicate chuckled.

"Sadly I'll have to pass." Replicate says. He turns around to face the exit. "Because starting now I'm retiring."

"Retiring?!" The Louds questioned.

"But what about our tie breaker?" Lynn asked.

"There's still a chance that could happen in the past." Replicate says before turning around to smirk at them. "I guess we'll see then won't we?"

After saying that Replicate exits the room. "So that was Replicate?" Leo asked.

"Yeah he's a mystery." Lori said.

"But he's so cool looking though." Leo said. "For an old guy."

"Hey that old guy is my grandpa man." Lemmy said. "He bested the L-Crew in a fight once."

"Didn't the L-Crew bested your grandpa in a fight?" Leo asked.

"He did first." Lemmy fired back.

"Alright you two knock it off." Luna said before turning to Petty who still had Lyle on his shoulders. "And Petty put Lyle down." Petty grabs Lyle and places him back on the ground. "Well I think we need to celebrate! The city is back to it's former glory and I say we go into the city and show these kids all the crazy places we used to go too when we were their age."

"Good idea." Lincoln said. "We can show them Gus' game and grub."

"What's that?" Lyle asked.

"It's a arcade your father and I used to go to when we were your age." Ronnie Anne said.

"It sounds awesome." Lyle said, as the Louds and Santiagos head on out.

The present

Tetherby sat in his office watching the news about the attack on the mall and how the L-Crew killed Vector. He clutched his glass of scotch and crushed it in his hand shattering it as scotch dripped on his desk and even some blood from his hand, but he couldn't care less.

"Damn it." Tetherby growled. "Damn it. Damn it! Every damn time!" He then grabs a bottle of whiskey and throws it at the wall. "This plan was foolproof! Vector was the ultimate weapon! Immune to abilities by meta humans, supreme intellect, and all powerful! He was perfect!" He then flips his desk. "Stuart! Mercer! In here now!" The two men walked into the destroyed office and looked at their enraged boss. "I want our projects sped up! I want all of them completed and if I have to do it myself so be it! Do i make myself clear Stuart?" Stuart nods. "Mercer I want you to find more meta humans and have them at the ready. I don't care how you do it, just get them! Do you understand?"

"Yes sir." Mercer replied.

"Go." Tetherby growled. "Now go!" The two nod and quickly walk out of the office. Once they're gone, Tetherby looks out his window. "It's time took things to another level."

At the park, Lynn nervously made her way to the baseball diamond where she saw Francisco there putting his stuff into a duffel bag.

Lynn takes a deep breath and walks over to Francisco. "Hey." Lynn said, as Francisco turned around and sees Lynn.

"Oh hey Lynn." Francisco greeted.

"Can I talk to you real quick?" Lynn asks.

"Yeah sure shoot." Francisco answered.

"Look over time, we've been hanging out outside of baseball club right?" Lynn asked.

"Yeah of course we have." Francisco replied. "You're pretty good in other sports."

"Yeah I sure am." Lynn said. "But I wanted to do some of the sports stuff with you."

"Don't you have other friends or your teammates?" Francisco asked.

"No. I mean do have friends. It's just that Polly Pain is only good at roller derby, Paula has a broken leg. How long she's been in that cast? And there's Margo, which I have nothing against her or anything." Lynn explained.

"Lynn you're babbling." Francisco says. "What are you trying to say?"

"What I'm trying to say is." Lynn started but lost her words. "Aw screw it." She grabs Francisco's shirt and kisses him before letting him go. They stare at each other for a few seconds before Lynn starts to walk away. "I'm just gonna go." However Francisco grabs her arm.

"I don't want you to go." Francisco said. "That was pretty gutsy to do that."

"It was?" Lynn asked.

"Yeah." Francisco says. "And it wasn't half bad either." Lynn blushes and puts a strand of hair behind her ear.

"Thanks." Lynn says. "So you want to go hang out?"

"Yeah sure." Francisco says. "But first things first." He cups her face and two share another kiss.

In another part of the city in an alleyway four figures stood in the shadows glaring out into the city.

"Well it looks like the L-Crew defeated Tetherby's special project." One says. "What do you think Squatch?"

"I'll be honest. I would thought they would be goners for sure." Squatch said.

"I don't know who that other kid was but he can shoot fire and energy like Surge and Firecracker." Another figure said.

"I don't think we need to worry about him Nuke." The first figure told him. "But it seems like Tetherby is stepping up his game."

"Agreed Johnny." The fourth figure said. "Perhaps we should as well. We wouldn't want to get sour."

"I'm with you on that Candyman." Johnny said. "It's time going easy on them. Time to start putting our plans together."

"Then let's go." Squatch said. The four then walk further into the alleyway. However not far away from the alley, Alice was listening in on what they were saying.

"I gotta go tell Replicate about this." Alice then runs off.

Meanwhile in a field, a blue static appears on the field and a blue electric ball appears and a figure appears out of the electric ball. It was a fair skinned man about 25 years old wearing a dark blue shirt, brown pants, black boots, black bandanna, brown hat, and a belt with a gun holster with two revolvers.

"What the hell happened?" The man asked. "Where am I?"

Smoke: Hey guys Smoke here. Boy was it a long journey but we made it to the end. The end of season 2 that is, and man it was a long. Anyway the L-Crew May have beaten Vector with the help of Lyle. But Tetherby has more projects to kill the L-Crew. We have some big plans for season 3 and yes that mysterious man is part of them. And no he's not a terminator. Also before I sign off I have a few things to point out. To the most recent guest, no the Casagrandes will not know Ronnie Anne and Bobby's secret. Also to the reviewers of Casaheroes, no I'm not killing off Mr. Santiago, I'm not repeating plot points from other stories. He's alive in that AU. Got anything to say Zach?

Zachlor16: Yeah. Again thanks for joining us for season two. We probably won't do season three for a bit because we got a couple side projects planned that go with Loud Heroes. Also Smoke and I will be doing a behind the scenes type thing where we'll go over the past chapters and announce our future plans for Loud Heroes. Now you're probably wondering, "but Zach, what about a QnA?" Well we'll be doing that as well. But we'll only be picking a few questions to answer so if you want your question answered make it good. But like I said season three won't happen for a bit but we'll be doing the behind the scenes stuff soon. Anyways see you around.
