Stories: Prank-pocalypse

''April Fools Day - a day of pranks, gags, and laughs. But for the Loud family, it might as well be a death sentence. Luan Loud is usually very kind-hearted and polite, even if her jokes could use some work. But on April Fools Day, she truly comes alive, for the worse! And this year, the Louds are determined to stop her from ruining the day! But this time feels different - why has Galaximus evacuated her lair? And why is that...part of Luan's plot?''

Story
The Louds are in a sibling meeting - all of them except Luan. All the other sisters agree as well. Meanwhile, in the Galactic Fortress, Mr. Red is scrambling around, collecting food supplies, water, and batteries, all in a panicky state, constantly repeating “April Fool’s day.” The phone rings. Absolutelt riddled with fear, Mr. Red calmly hungs up and stand there for few moments before screaming Meanwhile, at the Loud House. A knock on the door. Luna comes down holding a hammer and some wooden boards. Another knock on the door. Yet another knock on the door. More knocks on the door, this time it's Starcade, Kyoji and the gemstones. Someone knocks on the door. ''Blue Ocean opens the door. Blast comes in with Tommy, Alice and... Blade!?''
 * Lori: As we all are aware, tommorow is April Fools Day. And Luan literally always ruins it for us. We need some kind of plan - and it has to work. For the last three years we have suffered from her pranks. Any ideas?
 * Lincoln: Actaully, I have an idea.
 * Luna: Lay it on us, little bro.
 * Lincoln: Since we met the Locked Room Gang, it's safe to say we have made some new friends. So, I thought, if we join up with them, our combined forces can let us stick it to Luan once and for all!
 * Lynn: That's not a half-bad idea, Lincoln. I'm in!
 * Lori: Then it's settled! We should do it somewhere else though, or Luan might get suspicious.
 * Galaximus: What is wrong with you, Red?!
 * Mr. Red: April Fool’s day, April Fool’s day, April Fool’s day...
 * Galaximus: Oh, you worry too much. None of my minions are playing any pranks on me!
 * Mr. Red: I'M REFERRING TO MYSELF, THANK YOU FOR ASKING!
 * Galaximus: Can you get that, Red?
 * Mr. Red: How much do you charge? (Galaximus glares at him) Sigh... Okay. (Picks up the phone) Galactic Empire, the only empire that has a phone number. What do you want?
 * Luan: *on the line* Hello, Red! How are you on this fine day?
 * Mr. Red: (eyes widen) Oh, dear lord- Whatever call you’re making, make it brief please!
 * Luan: Tomorrow is April Fools Day...and I have my sights on your boss, your ruler, your master. If you wish to escape my pranking, I suggest you and the rest of the Galactic Army to leave - now, preferably.
 * Mr. Red: AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! LUAN IS TAKING OVER THE FORTRESS! I GOTTA GET OUTTA HERE (pushes Galaximus out of his way) MEN AND WINE FIRST!
 * Galaximus: Ha! I defy that potential!
 * Luan: *she can still talk, even with the phone hung up* I have water, Galaximus!
 * Galaximus: Wait - what?! AUUUGGGH! EVERYONE, LET'S GET OUT OF THIS PLACE!
 * Lincoln: Now we just need to inform the Gang about the scenario-
 * Star: Hey, Lincoln!
 * Marco: Heya.
 * Lincoln: Oh! Hey, Star! Marco!
 * Lori: Hi, Star and Marco. Not to be rude, but we should get going, stat. Night is approaching, and Luan will be up at 12:01 tomorrow.
 * Star: Wha?
 * Luna: I boarded up the door and window of Luan's room. I doubt it will hold her, but it makes me feel a little better.
 * Dynasty: (comes in) What’s going on here?
 * Green Shadow: Hi everyone!
 * Bonk Choy: What's cooking?
 * Re-Peat Moss: Did anything TRICKY happen?
 * Red Fork: Sorry we came late.
 * Blue Ocean: I was busy designing a defense strategy.
 * Lincoln: Wow, we have a lot of allies!
 * Starcade: Hi!
 * Kyoji: Wow, everyone's gathered here.
 * Red Ruby: What is this? A moping party?
 * Toby Topaz: There's a mopping party? Sweet, let me get my mops!
 * Red Ruby: Do you know what MOPE is?
 * Toby Topaz: I know mop, not mope.
 * Red Ruby: *facepalms*
 * Blue Ocean: Wait until the rest come. Blast and his group are getting ready too.
 * Bonk Choy:  I'm certainly not having a "Blast" here.
 * Blue Ocean: Most of us aren't. After all, we know what's coming soon.
 * Red Fork: Fortunately, Blue Ocean and I have been preparing ourselves for such an event.
 * Starcade: We prepared ourselves too!
 * Green Shadow: So what's happening anyway?
 * Leni: We're preparing because Luan's gonna prank us.
 * Blue Ocean: I read several books about prank theory just for the occasion.
 * Red Fork: Blast said he'd bring his team soon to help.
 * Lincoln: How great of him!
 * Red Fork: That must be him.
 * Bonk Choy: It better be. Who's gonna answer it?
 * Blue Ocean: I'll do it!
 * Kyoji: Hey guys. *notices Blade and draws sword* What is he doing here?
 * Blade: Hey, cut it out!
 * Blast: Don't worry, he's on our side this time.
 * Tommy: Blast made him realize that we have to work together to protect ourselves from Luan.
 * Blade: If only Electra wanted to help too...
 * Kyoji: Could this be an April Fool's Day prank? Though I must say if someone's pretending to be Blade, that person sure does a pretty good impersonation.
 * Blade: Cut it out with the suspicions, ok?
 * Blast: Don't worry, it's him. Just watch. *shows Blade a rock*
 * Blade: Get that thing away from me! *walks away from the rock*
 * Tommy and Alice: It's Blade.
 * Kyoji: Hmm...*looks at Blade closely, studying his traits* I guess that's the real Blade then. But how did Blast manage to convince him to join, besides making him realize stuff?
 * Blade: He showed me a video of Luan's pranks from the previous years. I had never seen more devastating pranks than hers.
 * Blast: It's actually pretty easy to scare him.
 * Blade: I heard that!
 * Kyoji: So I'm guessing he's only helping us temporarily.

Once again, another knock on the door. ''Green Shadow runs to answer the door. It's Richard and Kernely.''
 * Blade: Exactly. Once this is over, I'm working with Electra again.
 * Green Shadow: I'll get it!
 * Richard: Heya!
 * Green Shadow: Heya!
 * Starcade: It's those guys who helped us in Eitbit!
 * Richard: Yup. ...Only two of them, though.
 * Lincoln: Hey, Richard! You here to help us? You better make it quick though.
 * Richard: Why?
 * Lincoln: We need to come up with a plan. First off, find a place to devise our plan.
 * Star: Inside the house?
 * Amelia Amethyst: Where is Luan anyway?
 * Lana: She's asleep, but she'll be preparing a huge prank-mageddon soon.
 * Blue Ocean: I've got a device that will detect where she is, so that we can be careful when she's nearby.
 * Sean Sapphire: Why are we so afraid of this...kid?
 * Green Shadow: Sean, trust me. You haven't seen her in April Fool's Day yet. She's practically a maniac on that day.
 * Blast: Yeah, when it's April Fool's Day, no one is safe from her pranks.
 * Leni: But this time, we're gonna beprepared! Like, as preparaed as...uhh, what was his name? Mikey Murphy?
 * Lincoln: Milo Murphy.
 * Red Fork: And although Blue Ocean and I have never been through one of her prank-pocalypses, we had something similar back in Equestria. A friend of ours who would prank without mercy on April Fool's Day. We trained for years until we were finally able to defeat her in a prank war.
 * Tommy: Well, don't get too confident. Luan is much, much more dangerous than your local pony pranker.
 * Red Fork: We're conscious of that, so we trained even harder to at least survive this Prank-pocalypse.
 * Red Ruby: Well, it's just ONE DAY. We'll just have to fight her off until midnight and BOOM! Piece of cake.
 * Blast: Easier said than done.
 * Red Ruby: I got the perfect solution to not fall into any prank: Do nothing.
 * Tommy: I tried that last year. It didn't work...
 * Blade: What happened?
 * Tommy: I... I'd prefer to not talk about it.
 * Lincoln: Tommy's right.
 * Red Ruby: Or we can go to a location that Luan never goes to! How about that?
 * Blast: No, she'd expect us to try that.
 * Alice: Like what happened two years ago. I hided away where I thought she'd never find me, but she got me anyway.
 * Blade: What happened next?
 * Alice: Let's just say it wasn't a pleasant experience.
 * Sean Sapphire: So Luan is the April Fool's Day werewolf? Yikes.
 * Red Ruby: What do we do then?
 * Red Fork: Expect the unexpected, and be ready to defend ourselves from any possible threat. It's the best we can do.
 * Diana Diamond: What did Luan do last year?
 * Blue Ocean: Got no information on that, since Red Fork and I were still in Equestria last year.
 * Blast: She did virtually any prank you could have ever come up with, and even more. No one was safe from her pranks... citizens, heroes and villains alike fell victim of the chaos she created that day with her pranks.
 * Tommy: One of my friends was attacked by geese!
 * Blast: A helicopter flied over the city dropping pies on everyone!
 * Tommy:  All the bottles of ketchup were filled with hot sauce!
 * Blast: My cousin woke up with his bed on his roof!
 * Star: My wand was replaced with a decoy!
 * Marco: I woke up on the ceiling!


 * Alice: And all that was just in the first 30 minutes after sunrise.


 * Toby Topaz: That is terrible to hear. Glad we joined your crew after April Fool's Day last year.
 * Richard: That's horrible.
 * Green Shadow: We have to do something. Bonk Choy even fell into a hole last year.
 * Bonk Choy: And gosh, that was hole-lible!
 * Red Ruby: Let's hope she shows up any time soon. I have a few surprises of my own.
 * Blade: That's what I'm here for, red guy. I have a couple of tricks that might make the cut!
 * Bonk Choy: Let's just hope you can cut Luan down to size with them.
 * Star: Nice pun, Bonk Choy!
 * Lori: I beg to differ.
 * Bonk Choy: That's literally the first time I heard you say that, Lori. Also, thanks Star!
