52. Power Swap

Zachlor16: Hello everybody. As of now the contest is over and requests are closed. The winner is Star Saber21. Thanks to everyone who participated. But don't worry, we saved everybody else's idea on a separate doc so they won't be lost. Thanks for participating! Also, we recently changed our rating to T so the gloves are off! We will not be held back no more! Ha ha ha! So enjoy the chapter.

The Louds, Soothsayer, the pets and Clyde stood in the training area with Lincoln standing in front them and Lisa putting the reactor on Lincoln's suit.

"And one more adjustment and that should do it." Lisa said before stepping back. "Elder brother the reactor is now attached to your suit."

"Sweet." Lincoln said as he looked at it. "So this should keep another Irate from showing up?"

"In theory, yes." Lisa answered.

"Ok Linc let's test that baby out!" Lynn said.

Lincoln takes a deep breath and breathes out. Then puts his hands out and forms a fireball. "He's doing it!" Leni cheered.

"Is he back in action?" Charles asked.

But then the flames dies down and fades away. "Dang it!" The Louds, Clyde and pets exclaimed.

"I thought I had it that time!" Lincoln groaned with frustration.

"It's been weeks since Irate and Lincoln still isn't back at full strength." Lola complained.

"Back to the drawing board i guess." Lincoln sighed. "At this rate It'll be months before I'm back at full power."

"Sadly we don't have months." Soothsayer informed them.

"What do you mean?" Lana asked.

"I had a vision where Jax and Replicate weren't alone." said Soothsayer.

"Did Surge and Armor got caught in the crossfire?" Lynn asked as she scoffed.

"No! I saw all of you on the ground with broken bodies and Jax finished you all off." said Soothsayer.

"WHAT!?" Everyone exclaimed.

"Um, who's Jax?" Leni asked. The Louds exchanged glances and started asking the same question.

"From what I understand, Jax is a powerful meta from Replicate's past." Soothsayer answered. "While I don't know when Jax will arrive, I have a feeling that it could be soon. So we possibly don't have much time."

"We need to get Lincoln back to full strength ASAP!" Lynn exclaimed.

"How? We have literally tried everything." Lori pointed out.

"Not exactly." Lisa said.

Everyone gathered in the base where Lisa wheels out a machine. "I introduce you to my latest invention: the Power Amplifier."

"What's it do?" Leni asked which earned a groan from everyone.

"Well it'll bring anyone meta human's power back to full strength and I made it just in case one of us had to recover back to full strength." Lisa explained as she hooked Lincoln up to the machine.

"Is this safe?" Lincoln asked.

"Oh I have no idea." Lisa answered. "I haven't tested it yet." She then turns to grab the last of the wires and when she turns around, she sees Lincoln no longer there. "Lincoln?" She looks around and Lincoln pops up from behind Lori and Leni.

"I'd rather be crushed by Jax than get hooked up to a untested machine of yours." Lincoln growled.

"Might we remind you what your last machine did." Lori added.

"The explosion gave us our super abilities if it wasn't for my device." said Lisa.

"Still you should of tested it." said Lori.

"While that is true, our opinions are limited and we don't know when this Jax is going to arrive." Lisa pointed out. "This might be our only choice." Lincoln thinks about it and sighs.

"I guess she's not wrong." Lincoln sighed. "Alright hook me up again."

Lisa nods and escorts Lincoln back to the machine and Lisa flipped the switch. The machine turned on and Lincoln felt nothing. "Nothing's happening!" Lincoln shouted.

"Give it a minute!" Lisa said.

The machine continues to operate when Lincoln suddenly feels something. "Whoa!" He exclaimed when he felt a sudden rush of energy runs through him. "I feel something!"

"Yo try to charge up your flame dude!" Luna suggests.

"I'll try." said Lincoln and tried going full flame.

"Just focus Linky!" Lola shouted.

His body then is engulfed in flames. "It's working!" Luan exclaimed. Lincoln continues to charge up his with it getting bigger and stronger.

"Now this feels right!" Lincoln shouts. Suddenly the Power Amplifier starts to spark.

"Um, Lisa is that supposed to happen?" Lucy asked.

"No it's not." Lisa's eyes widened. "Lincoln you need to power down!"

However, Lincoln couldn't hear her and kept powering up.

"Quickly! Take cover!" Cliff shouted before diving behind the couch with the rest of the pets, Mr. Cuddles, Clyde and Soothsayer not far behind. Suddenly the machine stops sparking.

"Well that was unexpected." Luan said. "I would've thought that it would've-" Before she could finish the thought the Power Amplifier exploded.

"Kids!" Charles exclaimed and the pets ran towards their owners. Charles heads towards Lincoln and taps his paw on his forehead and then proceeded to headbutt him.

Lincoln opened his eyes to see Charles in front of his face. "Take it easy Charles." Lincoln groaned.

"Linc's alive." Charles shouted.

The rest of the sisters recovered and got back up. "That one is on me." Luan said.

Sorry about that girls." Lincoln said.

"No sweat Linc." Lynn assured him. "Hey, why don't you see if your back at full strength."

"Good idea." Lincoln said before starting to charge up when he suddenly vanishes.

"Uh, where did Lincoln go?" Walt asked.

"I'm right here." Lincoln replied from behind his sisters. Luna lets out a startled yelp and fires several crystals from her hands.

"Whoa!" Lynn shouted as she avoided the crystals but also made a duplicate of herself. "You almost hit us?" She said while looking at her double.

"What the?" Luan says surprised which causes ice to come from her hands which freezes the floor. Everyone starts to slip which causes Lori to unleash a fireball and Lola to discharge electricity.

"Everyone calm down." Soothsayer ordered.

"Can't gotta go!" Lana shouted and ran to the bathroom at Super Speed.

"What happened to the rest?" Lucy asked and then all of sudden vines grew out of the ground. "I have the power to creat life. This bites."

"This wasn't supposed to happen." Leni looked at Lisa with confusion. "Did you say something Lisa?"

"No." Lisa answered before becoming a dog. "This is unexpected."

"Wheres Lily?" Lori asked.

"I got her." Lynn said before going to pick her up only to be grabbed and swung her around while giggling.

"Um I think we got a problem." Lincoln said while still invisible.

I'll say." Leni exclaimed. "Too many people are talking!"

"Leni relax!" Lori said.

"Enough!" Soothsayer shouts. "Everyone calm down!"

Everyone was dead silent after Soothsayer's outburst. "Now Lisa would you explain what went wrong?" said Soothsayer.

Lisa walked up the damaged power Amplfier and inspects it. "Hmm it would appear that when Lincoln was going full flame. It was too much for both and exploded." Lisa explained.

"And it appears that your powers are all swapped." Mr. Cuddles observes. "Lori has Lincoln's powers. Leni has Lisa's. Luna has Lola's. Luan has Lucy's. Lynn has Leni's. Lincoln has Luan's. Lucy has Lily's. Lana has Lori's. Lola has Luna's. Lisa has Lana's and Lily has Lynn's. I sense a weird sense of irony here."

"As do I." Soothsayer agreed. "But we'll talk about that later. Right now we have a problem to figure out. The Louds have control over their own powers but they don't know how to control each others."

"Lisa can you fix this?" Lori asks.

"I can do my best." Lisa said uncertained.

"You need to fix it Lis. Or else Lori will have fire farts." Lynn said.

"Take that back!" Lori shouts as her fists engulf into flames.

"Lori calm down!" Lincoln shouts. "The fire is fueled off your emotions so you need to relax!" Lori sighed and the flames died down.

"Sorry." Lori said. This gave Clyde an idea.

"Why don't you help each other learn to control each other's powers." Clyde suggests.

"Now that's not a bad idea Clyde." Charles agreed.

"I agree with Clyde, you will all work off each other to learn your abilities." Soothsayer said.

"Right. So who goes first?" Lincoln asked.

"Might I suggest Lily goes first because she can clearly not control her super strength." Lisa suggested.

"Ok let me before she breaks you all like twigs." Lynn said.

"Be our guest." Lincoln said. Lynn nods and approaches the infant.

"Ok Lily. I'm going to show you how to control your super strength. Just don't grab me." Lynn said.

"Is Lily gonna understand any of this?" Lana asked.

"She might." Lisa answered. "Lily is quite intelligent for a infant her age."

"Now when you grab something, you gotta grab gently." Lynn told the infant. "Got it?"

Lily nodded and grabbed a piece of metal but crushes it when she grabbed it. "Let's try it again." Lynn said.

Lynn grabs a piece of metal and again hands to Lily who grabs but didn't crush it. Lily let's out a giggle and claps in happiness. Lynn smiles and turns back to her sisters. "Well that's taken care of." She says. "Now what?" She then creates a duplicate of herself. "Um, can I go next?"

"Sure i'll Totes teach you the ropes." Leni said. "Just think of your clones as your teammates."

"Ok but how do I keep them from coming out when I don't need them?" Lynn asked.

"That's an easy one." Leni said. "Don't think. My clones come out when I'm thinking. If you don't think, they won't appear."

"So that's how her power work." Lola said.

Lynn thinks and two clones come out. "Ok So we got four more Lynns." Lori said.

"Now we can play two on two basketball!" Clone 2 exclaimed,

"Yeah!" The rest of the Lynns exclaimed. As Leni watches this scene, she starts to hear more thoughts.

"I wonder if Geo tastes better with or without barbecue sauce?" Leni then glares at Cliff.

"Cliff don't you dare eat Geo!" Leni shouted.

"Hey I didn't say it out loud!" Cliff shouted.

'Another reason why I stay in this ball." said Geo.

"Sorry but I think i heard him thinking it." Leni said.

"I see." Lisa said. "Well then let me assist you with my powers. First you need to clear your mind."

"That should be easy." Luan chuckled and along with Lola.

Leni and Lisa both glared at Luan and Lola. "Anyway Leni clear your mind." said Lisa.

"Done." Leni said quickly.

"Ok." Lisa said slowly. "Now focus on me and only me."

"Ok." Leni said as she looked at Lisa.

"Now do you here anyone's thoughts?" Lisa asked.

"I don't think so." Leni replied.

"Good. As for telekinesis just focus on something and concentrate." Lisa explained. Leni nods and looks at Geo. She concentrates and Geo starts to float.

"Whoa!" Geo said as he floats in the air.

"So far so good." Lisa said.

"I did it!" Leni cheered. However she lost her focus and Geo started to fall to the ground only to be caught by Clyde.

"Ok I think I should be next." said Lola.

"Why's that?" Leni asked. Lola points at her hair which is sticking up like the bride of Frankenstein. Seeing this, Lana bursts into laughter.

"It's not funny Lana!" Lola shouted.

"Chill out little dudette." Luna said. "It's all good. I'll help get down electric avenue. Then you can help me control the crystals."

"Deal." Lola said.

"Hey Lola I know what next year's Halloween costume is going to be. The bride of Frankenstein!" Lana kept laughing until Lola glared at her.

"Easy sis. If you let your emotions go haywire, your powers will respond." Luna told her. "Just stay cool."

"So like Lincoln's powers got it." Lola said and calmed down.

"Good now to discharge electricity you then tap into your emotions." Luna explained. "So how do I control your crystals?"

"Oh that's simple just think." Lola said.

"Really? Just think?" Luna said in a deadpan voice.

"Well you have to think of the constructs to appear like my crystal buster." Lola replied.

"Oh. So if I think of a hammer, the hammer forms." Luna said. "Same goes for firing your crystals?"

"Pretty much." Lola answered. "So who's next?"

"Me please." Lincoln said while still invisible. "Luan, how do I turn um uh?"

"Just think think and concentrate!" Luan said. Lincoln conentraed and then reappeared.

"Finally I hate being invisible." said Lincoln.

"It ain't that bad." Luan said. "For forcefields just concentrate."

"Really?" Lincoln questioned. "I'll give it a shot."

Lincoln concentrates and a forcefield appears around him. Lincoln then focuses again and the forcefield disappears.

"Nice Linc." Luan said.

"Thanks." Lincoln said. "So who's next?"

"Me! Me!" Lana said raising her hand. "Give me a second." She then speeds off to the bathroom and then comes back a few seconds later. "Please help."

"Ok your body is now operating faster than normal. Your metabolism increases, you are literally fueling yourself every minute." said Lori. "It can be a pain at times. But every part of your body will go faster like your brain."

"Ok so how do I slow down?" Lana asked.

"Well you have move slow and the environment around you will be at normal speed." said Lori.

"That sounds hard." Lana whined.

"Yeah but with practice you'll master it in no time." Lori said. "Now i suggest Lisa goes next."

"Very well then." Lisa said. "Lana I will need your teachings on to turn into a animal and how to control it since the whole t-rex fiasco."

"Sure." Lana said. "To turn into the animal you need to just picture it and then you turn into it."

"I see." Lisa said. "What about the T-Rex?"

"That's easy." Lana told her. "You just need to not let the t-rex's instincts take over. That's what happened to me."

"Yeah twice." Lynn scoffed.

"Anyways." Lana said while rolling her eyes. "Just remember that you are a human. Not an animal."

"Sounds simple enough." Lisa said. "So who wishes to be next? I believe all that's left is Luan and Lucy due to Lincoln assisting Lori already."

"I'll go next to save my humiliation with my new curse." Lucy sighed.

"Mellowdramatic much?" Lynn groaned.

Lucy walks up to Lily and stands in front of her. Lily then points to eyes then to the ground. "Ok so i look at the spot where I want the plant to grow?" Lily nods and points to her head and makes a face. "And then I have to concentrate to get the plants to form?" Lily nods again. Lily then holds out her hands and raises them up. "And then I use my hands to summon the plants from the ground?" Lily nods.

"Wow, who knew Lily's powers required so much." Lola said surprised.

"I always thought it was easy." said Lana.

"Ok Lucy now it's your turn to teach me how to use your powers." said Luan.

"Ok. It's simple you got to have a calm mind." Lucy explained. "If your mind isn't calm your powers will leak out and form a small snow cloud."

"Ok thanks for letting me know." Luan said.

"Also to form ice weapons you gotta imagine what the weapon is and form it yourself." Lucy explained.

"So almost like the crystal powers?" Luan asked.

"Pretty much." Lucy answered with a shrug.

"And we know that Lincoln is working with Lori on control her powers." Luna said.

"Which we already did." Lori said. "So now what?"

"You kids haven't gone on patrol in weeks." Fangs pointed out. "Why not go out and show the people that you're still protecting them."

"Good idea Fangs." Lori agreed.

"I need to remind people that I'm not the threat anymore." said Lincoln.

"Right." Lori said. "We'll take the L-Monster. I don't think we can fly or run for obvious reasons."

The L-Crew is driving through the city. "So far it's dead." Crystal Princess said.

"You're telling me dudette." said Amplfier.

"I wonder where all the crime is?" Parkour asks only for another Parkour to come out. "Crap. Get back inside of me." The clone does just that. Firecracker looks out the window and sees something.

"Hey guys. There's something on that wall over there." Firecracker says. Speed Queen stops the truck and they look out to see a T and C in a circle on the wall.

"TC?" Prodigy reads. "Curious. I wonder what it means?"

"No doubt it means trouble." Speed Queen said. "C'mon, let's see if the bank is getting robbed. It's almost three and that's when the bank always seems to get robbed."

"It's sad that we know that." Ms. Appear said.

At the bank, a bank teller was looking at his watch when four men run in.

"You're late." The teller said.

"Sorry got lost." One thug said. "So normal routine right?"

"Yeah normal routine." said the Teller. "I'll take out the money and the alarm will be triggered."

"Ok then." said One thug.

The thugs run out of the bank where the L-Crew are waiting.

"Oh crap! It's the L-Crew!" The second thug exclaimed,

"Don't worry boys." The lead thug assured them. "Firecracker is with them. Remember, Firecracker turned on the L-Crew."

"I'm sick of people saying that!" Firecracker shouted.

"Take them down!" Speed Queen ordered.

The L-Crew get out of the L-Monster and glared at the thugs. "Try some of this!" Amplfier shouted and tried to shoot a Crystal but it came out small and only made it near her hand.

The thugs bursted into laughter from her failed attempted.

"Well that's humiliating." Amplifier said.

"Let me try." Wildgirl said. She then starts rushing forward but ran past the guards and further into the city. Everyone looks towards the way Wildgirl left before the thugs start laughing.

"Is she coming back?" Multiple Girl asks.

"I have literally have no idea?" Speed Queen shrugged.

"Let me take them down." said Crystal Princess.

Crystal Princess starts to charge up her electricity but instead of firing an electrical blast, her hair sticks up like the bride of Frankenstein. Seeing this the thugs start laughing.

"This isn't really going well." Firecracker said.

"You're telling me." said Speed Queen.

"Let me try." Parkour said.

Parkour charges forward trying to think of a strategy when she unknowingly forms a clone who bumps into her.

"Sorry." The clone said.

"Watch it will ya!" Parkour growled.

"I said I was sorry." The clone replied.

The two then turn to see the thugs laughing at them.

"Um, so anyone else want to try?" Multiple Girl asks. The L-Crew exchange glances when they hear screaming. The L-Crew and the thugs look and see Wildgirl speeding towards them.

"I can't stop!" Wildgirl shouts before plowing through the thugs launching them upward and a few seconds later the thugs come down on top of each other. The rest of the L-Crew stand there processing what just went down.

"Well that happened." Speed Queen said. "Alright everybody back in the L-Monster. We gotta go after Lana."

Wildgirl is running through the city at high speed passing by everyone as the L-Monster is driving through the city chasing after Wildgirl.

Faster Lori!' Crystal Princess shouts. "We're losing her!"

"We're going as fast as we can!" Speed Queen shouts back.

"We're never gonna catch her." Black Ice laments.

"We'll catch her eventually." Speed Queen said. "She'll eventually run out of gas or we'll run out of gas."

"Then I suggest you hit the turbo button." Prodigy suggested before hitting a large button on the dash that released to rockets the sped the L-Monster up.

"This is awesome!" The Louds shouted.

Back at the base Clyde was introducing Soothsayer and Mr. Cuddles to video games.

"So what is this?" Soothsayer asked.

"This is a video game." Clyde said.

"What is this game call?" Mr. Cuddles asked.

"Dragon Ball FighterZ." Clyde answered.

"I've heard of this Dragon Ball." Soothsayer said. "We did what you call binged watched the whole series."

"And the movies." Mr. Cuddles added. "That being said, dibs on Broly!" He then grabs the controller and selects said Saiyan.

"I would pick Beerus!" Soothsayer said as he grabbed a controller and selects the God of Destruction.

"Um you do realize you need a team of three right?" Clyde reminds them.

"Oh. In that case I will pick Android 18 and Kid Buu." Mr. Cuddles said.

"I should pick Vegeta and Tien." Soothsayer said.

As they get ready to play, they hear the L-Monster pull into the base and with the eleven annoyed Loud siblings.

"You're back later then I thought you'd be." Clyde comments.

"We had to chase Lana all the way to Hazeltucky." Lincoln explained.

"I couldn't stop." Lana said.

"We only stopped a bank robbery." said Lori.

"Let's just say I had a fight with myself." said Lynn.

"I made a small Crystal." Luna groaned.

"Then on the way back we ran out of gas so we had to take care of that." Lori added.

"I want my old powers back!" Lola whined.

"Well kids, I have good news." Mr. Cuddles tells them. "Martha and I might've figured out how it all happened."

"You do?!" Lana asked. "Tell us?!"

"Martha please pull up the footage of the accident." Mr. Cuddles requested.

"Of course." Martha responds. The computer turns on and every looks to see paused footage of before the explosion.

"Now tell me what you kids see in this picture." Mr. Cuddles requests.

"We're all looking at Lincoln and we were standing next to each other." said Lori. "That's it! I was standing next to Lincoln when our powers got switched."

"Yeah." Lola said before gasping. "And Luna and I were standing away from you guys which is why our powers were swapped with just each other."

"Ok, now that we know this, what do we do to fix it?" Lana asked. The Louds ponder it. While Lincoln is thinking he feels a nudge. He looks and sees the wolf.

"It's you again." Lincoln whispered. "You usually have an answer for this kind of stuff so what do we do?" The wolf walks towards the area where the explosion happened. Lincoln goes to join the wolf and he sees that a lot of the Power Amplifier's parts were still intact. He then realizes what the wolf is trying to tell him. "We rebuild the machine." The wolf nods and vanishes.

"What was that Lincoln?" Lori asked.

"We need to rebuild the machine that swapped our powers." said Lincoln.

"You sure?" Leni asked.

"Not entirely." Lincoln admitted. "But we don't have many options."

"Indeed young Lincoln isn't wrong." Soothsayer said. "You might be able to recreate everything that led to the explosion."

"True but there's a problem." Lucy pointed out. "Lori has Lincoln's powers."

"So?" Lynn asked.

"We need to hook her up to the machine." said Lisa.

"But that might be a problem." Lucy pointed out. "We don't know if Lori can charge her power to get it to the power we need. The only reason it worked before is because Lincoln has had more practice with the powers."

"I'm afraid young Lucy is right." Soothsayer told them. "However, we must try. We don't know when Jax will arrive so you all must gain your powers back."

"Why don't you kids go home." Mr. Cuddles suggests. "We'll work on the machine."

"Alright cool. I need a break for tonight." said Lori. "Come on let's go home."

Back home, the siblings and pets went into Lori and Leni's room for a meeting.

"So today was eventful to say the least." Lori said as she scratched the back of her neck.

"You can say that again." Luna agreed as the rest of her siblings voiced their agreement.

"I mean we couldn't stop four bank robbers." Lincoln groaned. "How much lower can we uh um what is it?"

"Get." Luan answered for Lincoln.

"Thanks." Lincoln said.

"I know but we have to go through the whole day without exposing our powers." said Lori.

"I really hope Mr. Cuddles's plan works." Lana says.

"Same here." Lucy said.

"Or else we'll be stuck with different powers forever." said Lori.

The next day, the Loud siblings did everything in the book to keep their powers from being exposed. Things were going well until Lynn Sr. picked the kids up from school.

"Alright kids, how was your day?" Lynn Sr. asked.

"Ok." The Louds answered in unison. As they are riding home Lincoln unknowingly turns invisible and when Lynn Sr. looked in the rearview mirror, he saw Lincoln gone and slammed the brakes.

"Where's Lincoln?!" Lynn Sr asked. "He was right there!"

"You sure dad?" Lana asked.

"Oh no did I forget him again!?" Lynn Sr. exclaimed. "Girls check under the seats in case he fell off!" He then looks under the seat. While he isn't looking, Lincoln turns visible.

"Something wrong dad?" Lincoln asked. Lynn Sr gets startled by Lincoln's voice and looks up.

"Oh there you are son. For a second I thought I forgot to pick you up." Lynn Sr. Chuckled.

"No I was here the whole time." Lincoln said. "So are we going home?"

"Yes. Right." Lynn Sr. said. He then gets Vanzilla moving again. Once they reached the house everyone headed in. The siblings headed upstairs where they saw all the pets in the hallway playing cards.

"Hope y'all are ready to lose cause I'm getting my streak back." Cliff said.

"Fat chance cat." Walt said.

"Ready." Charles said. "Show them."

All the pets dropped their cards to reveal that Gary had the winning hand.

"Boom. Lucky rabbit's foot baby." Gary boasted. "Full house and trust me, where I'm from eleven kids is nothing."

"You guys done?" Lori asked.

"Kids, you're back." Charles said. "Yeah we're finishing up."

"Alright guys same time next week." Cliff said as El Diablo, Izzy and Bitey went to Lana and Lola's room while Gary went to Luna and Luan's room. "We play cards to pass the time while you kids are at school."

"We can see that." Lola said.

"So have you guys heard from Mr. Cuddles about the machine?" Lynn asked.

"No not yet." said Luna.

"Well he better fixed it soon I turned invisible and dad thought he left me at school." Lincoln said.

Suddenly their watches go off. Lori looks around and answers.

"Hello?" Lori answered.

"Lori it's Mr. Cuddles. I got good news. I finished fixing them machine!"

"Finally. Thanks for the heads up we're on our way. "Lori replied. "Ok the machine is fixed now let's go get our powers back."

When the Louds pulled into the base they saw that the machine was indeed fixed and Mr. Cuddles was sitting on top of it.

"Not bad for a guy with no fingers huh?" Mr. Cuddles said.

"I will admit I had my doubts." Lisa stated

"Same here." said Lucy.

"So what's the possibility of this succeeding?" Lori asks.

"Martha did the math." Mr. Cuddles explains. "The numbers aren't really ideal."

"The success rate is forty-five percent." Martha continued. "With a fifty-four percent chance that your powers will continue to be swapped."

"What is the last one percent?" Lincoln asked.

"Death." Martha and Mr. Cuddles answer in unison.

"So we get our powers back to normal or death?" Lynn asked.

"Pretty much yeah." Mr. Cuddles answers.

"Ok let's hook Lori up." Leni said.

"Whoa hold up Leni." Lori said. "This is a big risk we're taking."

"Yeah, we could risk being killed." said Lola. "And I'm too young to die."

"No we need to hook up Lori to the machine." said Lynn.

"This might be our only option." Lincoln added. "But first, before I get my fire powers I want to do something." He turns invisible and the girls wonder what he's doing. Suddenly, Lynn feels her underwear get pulled upwards resulting in a wedgie.

"Yow!" Lynn exclaimed while her sisters and pets laughed. Lincoln turns visible with a satisfied smile on his face.

"Ok lets hook Lori up and get in position." Lincoln said.

Lori sits down as Lisa hooks up Lori to the machine as everyone gets into position. "Ok everyone ready?" Lisa asked and everyone nodded. "Throw the switch!"

Mr. Cuddles throws the switch and the machine activates. Lori at first doesn't feel anything but after a few seconds she starts to feel something.

"I got something!" Lori groaned.

"Lori, you need to go full flame!" Lincoln shouted.

"Right." Lori said before she tried to charge up her flame. "C'mon. C'mon!"

"You got this Lori!" Luna shouted.

"I'm trying!" Lori shouted.

"Come on!" Lincoln replied.

"Try getting Lori angry!" Clyde shouted from behind the couch where he was hiding with the pets, Soothsayer and Mr. Cuddles. "It might boost her powers!"

"Lori! You're the worst party planner ever! I mean come on. They're worst than Lisa's!" Luan shouted as Lisa gave her a glare.

"Yeah and your hair is totes hard with split ends." Leni added.

"And your farts smell." Lana said. Listening to comments Lori started to get a little angry and felt the fire building inside her.

"It's not enough." Lola said.

"Your relationship with Bobby is so cliche!" Lincoln shouts. "I mean Babe? Bobby-boo-boo-bear? I'd rather fight Berserker alone with no powers than listen to your lovey dovey talk."

Lori got as the flames began to show. "You're always on the phone racking up the bills!" Lynn shouted.

"Sam and I are a better couple than you and Bobby!" Luna shouted.

Lori lets out a scream and the flames get larger and the machine starts to spark and the screen starts to flash.

"She's gonna blow!" Lynn shouted.

"Brace yourselves!" Luna orders before the machine exploded.

"Kids!" Soothsayer shouts and runs towards the unconscious kids.

"Ugh!" Lincoln groaned. "Is everyone ok?"

"I'm fine." Lynn said.

"I'm ok." Lori said. "Wait, where's Luan?" Everyone look around they see that Luan is nowhere to be seen.

"You don't think the explosion killed her?" Luna asked.

"Nope!" Luan's voice is heard and then she reappears.

"Ok Luan's alive." said Lola.

"And she was invisible." Lana added. "Which means it worked!" Then turns into multiple animals.

"Yay!" Leni cheered before making a clone of herself and hugging her.

Lynn grabbed a hunk of metal and crushes it. "Woo hoo!"

"Rocking!" Luma shouted while charged up with electricity.

Lola shot a crystal shard at the wall and smirked.

"This is perfect." Lucy said. "I've never been happier." Clyde examines her face and where he sees she isn't smiling.

"Trust us, she's happy." Fangs tells him while Lucy forms a snowball.

"It seems that all our powers are back where they belong." Lisa said. "But the question still remains. Lincoln, how are you feeling? Are you back at full strength?"

"Let me check." Lincoln said and breathed in and went full flame.

"Looks like full strength to me." said Clyde.

"Aw yeah!" Lincoln shouts. "Firecracker is back baby! Now I just gotta regain the trust of the people."

"It could take some time." said Lisa.

"I know." Lincoln sighed,

"For now let's be glad our powers are back." Lori said.

"And when Jax does show up, we'll be ready to kick his butt." Lynn added.

Jax is riding on a motorcycle and he looks to his left and sees a sign that says. 'Royal Woods, Welcome you.' Jax smirks and says. "So Replicate ended up in this dump huh. Well then wait until this town gets a load of me."

In another part of town, Replicate is meditating in his safehouse. He then opens his eyes with an intense look.

"He's here."

Zachlor16: Hey guys. Well Jax has arrived and Replicate is ready for them. Now next week we'll probably release a trailer for the next arc so that's something to look forward to. And no, the next arc is NOT the season finale. So everyone, this is your last chance to get your theories in. So see you guys next time.

Smoke: Yeah get your theories in. Before we post the arc. Please review.
