REVIEWS

DarthSidious04 - Well, maybe this is the chapter... :D Hope you enjoy it! Thanks for reading!

DreadedCandiru2 - Yeah, I guess they have. Time to end this! Hope you enjoy the chapter!

burtonfan422 - Yeah, I did kind of base it on the climax for Back to the Future. Hopefully that's not a bad thing. I'm glad you appreciated the scene with Lynn and Lincoln. She's definitely not perfect, but I think she genuinely tries to fix her mistakes when she makes them. You can imagine that Leni/Lily was sitting on one of the older siblings' laps. I didn't really specify that she was because I felt it wasn't that important. But yeah, she was. Thanks for these well thought out reviews man. I appreciate it. I'm glad you're excited for this conclusion and I hope to see your presence on my future stories! Thanks for reading!

Alright! Let's get the last chapter rolling! I'll see you guys in the outro! Reviews and constructive criticism welcome!

Chapter 15: Shocking Results

The Perfect Princess pageant was nearing its end. They had already done the evening gown competition, in which Lynn/Lola's gown was a knockout. And they had the questions round where the question was: What do you think we as humans can do to stop global warming? Lynn/Lola didn't really know how to answer, so she said: "We can all do our part by saving energy at home. If you're not using it, turn it off." The crowd and judges seemed to be pleased with that response.

Right now, Rita and Lola/Luan were gearing Lynn/Lola up for the final competition: The talent contest. Lola/Luan and Lynn/Lola had been practicing doing a ribbon dance for the last three days. Lynn/Lola felt like she was gonna nail it.

"I'm so ready for this!" said Lynn/Lola hyped.

"*chuckles* You're gonna do great Lynn." said Rita.

Suddenly, Lucy/Lincoln appeared, scaring the living tar out of Rita, Lola/Luan, and Lynn/Lola.

"Lucy! What the heck!" exclaimed Lola/Luan.

"Sorry guys, but we have to get outside. Lightning is about to strike the Probaball, and we can't miss it!" said Lucy/Lincoln.

"But Lynn's up next! She can't leave now!" said Lola/Luan.

"Well-"

"And now, performing her ribbon dance, Ms. Lola Loud!"

"You have to go sweetie!" said Rita, as she hurried Lynn/Lola through the curtain.

Lynn/Lola walked to center stage, as she looked out at the crowd and the judges before her. She then looked through the windows ahead of her, and saw that the storm had gotten really bad. She had a decision to make. Save Lola's career, or save her skin. Actually, she was pretty sure she could do both.

Lynn/Lola started doing the ribbon dance as planned, but about midway, she discarded the ribbon and started doing a ballet routine.

"What is she doing?! That's not what we practiced!" exclaimed Lola/Luan confused and flustered.

It was surprising, but Lynn/Lola was actually really gifted in ballet. She performed a whole dance number by herself, and ended gracefully with a plie'. The crowd was in awe, and immediately applauded Lynn/Lola for her performance.

"I don't believe it." said Lola/Luan in shock.

"Everyone Ms. Lola Loud! She always has a surprise in store I see!" said Donnie.

Lynn/Lola took a bow, and then skipped off stage back to her mom, Lola/Luan, and Lucy/Lincoln.

"Lynn! That was amazing honey! But, where did you learn how to do that?!" asked Rita confused.

"*sighs* Last summer, I took a ballet class to help with my coordination in football and soccer. My coach said it would help me out. I didn't want to at first but, it actually wasn't that bad once I got down to it." said Lynn/Lola.

"So you...dance?" asked Lucy/Lincoln, trying to hold back laughter.

"*sighs* Yeah, yeah. You can laugh it up later. Right now, we gotta get outside!" said Lynn/Lola.

"Right! Come on kids!" said Rita, as she ran off, with Lucy/Lincoln following behind.

Lynn/Lola was about to follow suit, when Lola/Luan stopped her.

"Wait Lynn." said Lola/Luan.

"What is it Lola?" asked Lynn/Lola.

"Why'd you change up the act?" asked Lola/Luan.

"Well, your ribbon dance would've taken too long, and we might've missed this opportunity. Look Lola, I want to help you as much as I can, but I don't want us to suffer forever. So, I did my ballet routine...The only ballet routine I knew actually." said Lynn/Lola.

Lola/Luan and Lynn/Lola laughed as they shared a hug.

"Come on. I think we've been stuck in these bodies long enough." said Lola/Luan.

"I can definitely agree with that." said Lynn/Lola, as she and Lola/Luan ran to meet their family outside.


Meanwhile, outside the storm had pretty much come down over Royal Woods...

"*radar shows electrostatic energy surrounding them* Family! We have to get in position! That lightning will probably only be able to jumpstart the Probaball! There's no guarantee the charge will last!" exclaimed Lisa/Lori.

"Don't worry Lisa! We're here!" exclaimed Lori/Lucy, running up with Bobby and Ronnie Anne.

"We're here too Lise!" shouted Luna/Leni, with Leni/Lily, Luan/Luna, Lily/Lana, and Lynn Sr. in tow.

"Where are the others?" asked Lisa/Lori.

"I'm here." said Lucy/Lincoln, which scared the actual Lincoln.

"Lucy! Don't do that! We're already messing around with lightning!" exclaimed Lincoln/Lynn frightened.

"Lucy! There you are! Okay, I think we're all here." said Rita, running up with Lynn/Lola and Lola/Luan behind.

"Alright. Mother. Father. I would ask you to please stand a favorable distance away from the Probaball. This is to ensure that you guys don't get mixed up in this." said Lisa/Lori.

"Got you Lisa. Come on honey." said Lynn Sr., as he led himself and his wife away from the Probaball.

Lisa/Lori was about to set her radar aside, when she noticed Bobby and Ronnie Anne still with the group.

"Uh, Lori? I understand that you and Bobby just got back together, but you'll have to be separated from him, to ensure his safety." said Lisa/Lori.

"*sighs* Okay." said Lori/Lucy, withdrawing from her boyfriend's embrace.

"Hurry back babe." said Bobby.

"Hopefully in my body." said Lori/Lucy.

Bobby gave her one last hug, before him and Ronnie Anne joined the Loud parents where they were standing.

Thunder boomed all around the Louds, and the rain was very heavy. As the latest lightning flash was seen dangerously close to them, Lisa/Lori knew it was time.

"Alright siblings! Huddle up!" exclaimed Lisa/Lori, as she and the rest of her siblings formed a circle around the Probaball.

As the Louds all looked at each other, they couldn't help but remember all they had been through the past couple days. This switcheroo had taught them a lot of valuable lessons, and it also helped them discover different things about each other.

"Siblings. Seeing as how this is our last hope to return to normality, I just want to say that if this doesn't work, I'm truly sorry. I should've been more careful to secure my invention." said Lisa/Lori.

"*sighs* No Lisa. This isn't just your fault. We all made mistakes." said Lori/Lucy.

"Yeah. I'll be the first to admit that I shouldn't have been playing with that ball." said Lynn/Lola.

"Yeah, I'm sorry too Lisa. Me and Lolz kinda escalated it." said Lana/Lisa.

"All we thought about was ourselves. Being selfish is what got us into this mess." said Lola/Luan.

"Yeah, but I'm glad we worked things out. We all pitched in and helped each other out. Even though some of us made some mistakes, we all worked to make this switcheroo not as bad!" said Luna.

"Yeah, we really came together as a family." said Lincoln/Lynn.

Everyone agreed with his statement, and hugged the Loud closest to them.

"I don't ever wanna forget this!" said Leni/Lily.

"Leni. I don't think we can literally ever forget this." said Lori.

Suddenly, a clap of thunder brought the Louds back to reality.

"Get ready siblings! Here it comes!" said Lisa/Lori.

"Let's hope this works." said Lincoln/Lynn.

A lightning bolt was suddenly drawn to the iron filings covering the grounded power line. It struck the line, sending a massive power surge to the Probaball. The Louds then witnessed the Probaball lighting up again.

"*gasps* It worked! It worked!" exclaimed Lisa/Lori excited.

"Quick dudes! Let's push the button!" exclaimed Luna/Leni.

"Wait! We all have to push the button at the same time!" said Lisa/Lori.

"But Lisa, it's gonna be hard to duplicate exactly what we did the last-"

Lincoln/Lynn was cut off as a sudden clap of thunder was heard. This was the loudest heard of the storm so far that night. It was so sudden that it shocked every Loud sibling, and they all reacted by placing their hands on the button.

"*giggles* Goo goo!" said Lily/Lana, as she pressed the button just like before, simultaneously with everyone else.

A blue ray pierced through the Loud siblings once again, and the Louds felt weird again. When the escapade had ended, the Probaball was in pieces. The volt power was simply too much for its circuits. The Louds were now all laying on the ground, exhausted.

The Loud parents, Bobby, and Ronnie Anne noticed them lying there and thought the worst.

"*racing over* Oh no! Kids!" exclaimed Rita, feeling dread.

"Kids, please be okay!" said Lynn Sr.

Bobby knelt down next to Lucy and sighed.

"I guess we'll have to make this relationship work somehow."

"I'm flattered Bobby, but I think Lori would appreciate that more." said Lucy.

"Wait. You sounded like-"

"Lucy! She sounded like Lucy! *looks down at herself* And me! I-I sound like me! I'm me again!" exclaimed Lori ecstatic.

"Babe!" said Bobby.

"Bobby!" said Lori.

Suddenly, the two started making out passionately.

"Ugh! Can you guys get a room?" asked Ronnie Anne disgusted.

"I know right!" said Lincoln.

"Good to have you back Lame-O." said Ronnie Anne.

"Good to be back!" said Lincoln.

"Oh sweet threads! How I missed you!" said Luna, hugging herself.

"Gee, someone's FULL OF THEMSELVES." said Luan.

Luna just shook her head and hugged her sister. They had been brought much closer as a result of this experience.

"Lily. I totes had no idea how hard your life is. You can't go to mall, and it's no wonder you crawl around a lot. Those legs are a total pain to walk around on. No offense." said Leni.

Lily responded by hugging her older sister's legs.

"*picks up Lily* Alright Lily! We're back! It sure was a long time coming huh?" asked Lana.

Lily just giggled.

"Yes! Lynn Loud is back! Woohoo!" exclaimed Lynn.

"And so is Lola! Thanks again Lynn." said Lola.

"Hey no problem!" said Lynn.

As the Louds continued to celebrate, Lincoln noticed not everyone was celebrating. He broke away from the group and strolled over to Lisa, who was kneeling over the remains of her Probaball.

"You okay Lisa?" asked Lincoln.

"Yeah. I'm-I'm fine Lincoln. I just...I wanted to use this machine to advance the analytics of statistics...but it ended up almost destroying our family." said Lisa saddened.

"Hey. It's not your fault Lisa. The Probaball was just a prototype right? So, it was bound to make mistakes." said Lincoln.

"Yeah, well, I think this whole fiasco made me realize that the world's not ready for technology like this. The Probaball was a great invention, but it's gonna stay a prototype." said Lisa, coming to a decision.

"I think that's for the best Lisa." said Lincoln, as he and Lisa smiled.

"Hey you guys! Come on! They're about to announce the winner of the pageant!" yelled Lynn, to Lincoln and Lisa.

Lincoln and Lisa then raced to rejoin their family, with Lisa leaving her destroyed invention behind.


"Ladies and gentlemen. It has been a lovely evening. Tonight, we have seen a taste of America's little sweethearts! And now, it's time to crown the winner of the Huntington Oaks 10th annual Perfect Princess pageant! This little girl has poise, passion, and is absolutely adorable! Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome our Perfect Princess, Ms. Lola Loud!" announced Donnie, on stage.

Lola then came strolling out from backstage, waving to the crowd as she approached Donnie.

"Lola, this is for you." said Donnie, presenting Lola with the pageant tiara.

"Thank you Donnie. And thank you everyone. This is a dream come true!" said Lola, as she looked backstage at Lynn, who gave her a thumbs up.

"Ladies and gentlemen, one more time, Ms. Lola Loud!" said Donnie, as he and the crowd clapped for Lola.

Her family cheered and applauded for her as well. Lola took a bow, as she exited the stage.

"Well, that's all for tonight folks! I've been your host, Donnie Dufresne, and thank you for coming to the Huntington Oaks 10th annual Perfect Princess pageant! You all were a wonderful audience! Good night!" said Donnie, as the curtain closed around him on stage.

As most of the pageant girls started to leave, Lola came running up to Lynn.

"I don't think I can say this enough times Lynn. Thank you." said Lola.

"Hey, don't sweat it Lola. It's the least I can do. And from now on, I'm gonna try and think about others more and less about myself." said Lynn.

Lola just hugged Lynn, and Lynn returned the hug. This moment was unfortunately broken up by Lindsey Sweetwater.

"CHEATS! CHEATS! CHEATS! I call CHEATS!" said Lindsey, clearly angry.

"Excuse me?" said Lynn.

"Butt out jockstrap." said Lindsey. "Now you listen to me Lola Loud, mark my words this day, THIS will be the last time you ever win a pageant on my watch." said Lindsey.

"Oh? Well, that'll be kinda hard since she won't have much competition." said Lynn.

"What are you talking about? She'll have plenty competition." said Lindsey.

"Not from you. Cause if you don't leave my little sister alone, THIS will be the last pageant you ENTER." said Lynn sternly.

"*gulps* Y-You're just a big raging bully! Are you sure you're a girl?" said Lindsey, trying to take a shot at Lynn.

"Don't push me." said Lynn, stepping closer.

"Right! This isn't over Lola!" said Lindsey, as she fled from Lynn and Lola.

"Yeah that's right Lindsey! You better run!" exclaimed Lola.

"I don't think you'll be having any more problems from her." said Lynn.

"Thanks to you." said Lola.

"Hey guys, come on! We're leaving!" said Lana.

"I call the window!" exclaimed Lola.

"Hey! No way! I'm not getting stuck in the sticky seat!" said Lynn, as she raced to the van with Lola.

"*sighs* It's good to be back." said Lana, as she followed behind her siblings.


The next day, the Loud siblings finally enjoyed their first normal day in a while. They were now back in their right bodies, and they would never take each other for granted again.

*Lori and Bobby both crying in embrace*

"I'm gonna miss you boo-boo bear!" cried Lori.

"Me too babe!" cried Bobby.

"Alright, it's been long enough. Ready?" said Ronnie Anne, to Lincoln.

"Yup." said Lincoln, as he and Ronnie went to their respective siblings, and pried them off of one another.

"Come on Bobby. Mom's expecting us back by this afternoon." said Ronnie Anne.

"*wipes tears* Right. I'll call you Lori." said Bobby.

"I'll be waiting." said Lori, as Bobby and Ronnie Anne got in his car, and he drove off.

"*sighs* Literally perfect." said Lori dreamily.

"Glad to see you're happy again." said Lincoln.

"LINCOLN!" yelled Clyde, running up the sidewalk. "Is it true? Are you actually back buddy?" asked Clyde.

"I'm back!" said Lincoln.

"Alright! *high-fives Lincoln* Great to have you back Lincoln." said Clyde.

"Great to be back Clyde." said Lincoln, who meant every word of that statement.

"*clears throat* And uh, Lori my sweet. I see you're all alone again. Might I-"

"Not gonna happen Clyde." said Lori, cutting Clyde off.

"I thought so." said Clyde, surprisingly taking the rejection well.

"Hey Louds!" said Sam, walking up to the group.

"Hey Sam. What are you doing here?" asked Lori curious.

"I came to see Luna. We're going to hang out at the park." said Sam.

"You mean you guys are literally gonna have a date!" said Lori ecstatically.

"*chuckles* Something like that." said Sam.

"Hey Sam! You ready to go?" asked Luna, coming out the house, and joining the group outside.

"Not yet." said Sam, as she pulled Luna to her, and gave her a passionate kiss.

Lori and Lincoln smiled, while Clyde just stood awestruck.

"*released from the kiss* Woah mamma!" exclaimed Luna, caught by surprise.

"Now I'm ready to go." said Sam, smiling from ear to ear.

"Don't wait up for me guys!" said Luna, as she and Sam took off, heading towards the park.

"Have fun you two!" exclaimed Lincoln.

"But not too much fun!" said Lori.

"Who are you? Mom?" teased Lincoln.

"No, I'm Lori. And I wanna keep it that way." said Lori.

"Hey guys! The Dream Boat is on! You coming?!" asked Lola, from the front door.

"Sure Lola." said Lori, heading towards to the house.

"Clyde, you wanna come?" asked Lincoln.

"Of course!" said Clyde, as he tagged along behind Lincoln.

The front door closed as the Louds and Clyde settled in to watch the Dream Boat together. They had proven that their bonds as a family were very strong, and that nothing could ever break them apart. Not even a switcheroo.
