The Monster House

House Music

Today was the annual Family Fun Day at Rotten Woods, and everyone in the Loud House is busy trying to think up of a terrifying talent for tonight.

"Guys! We gotta figure out something!" Lincoln told his sisters as they met in the living room with a chart. "The Family Fun Fair is tonight, and we've got nothing for the talent show."

"I know!" Lynn raised her hand. "How about a family trapeze act?"

"Just because you fractured every bone from your maxilla to your metatarsals doesn't mean we want to." Lisa groaned.

"How about a magic show?" Lori suggested. "I've been working on my fireworks spell." The witch raised her wand and fireworks came out of it and blasted flames everywhere.

"Duck!" The ghost cried as everyone took cover the the explosions that nearly set the couch on fire.

"On second thought, I should work on that..." Lori rubbed the back of her head.

"I know! How about a family beauty pageant?" Lola suggested, but quickly dropped it. "Never mind. That would take years to prepare for."

"I say we wrestle alligators!" Lana beamed.

"That won't work, Lana." Lincoln said. "Where would we even get aligators?"

"Good point." Lana agreed.

"We need something we can all do." Lincoln said.

Soon all the monster were arguing about what they should do for the fair until they were all stipped at the sound of a guitar riff.

"I've got the answer! Let's start a family band!" Luna suggested.

"But we literally have no musical talent." Lori said.

"Yeah. I couldn't carry a tune if it had a handle." Luan added before laughing.

"As my idol Mick Swagger says, 'Rock and roll isn't about being the best. It's about having fun'," Luna quoted. "NOW, WHO WANTS TO HAVE FUN?!"

Everyone then cheered in response and they all ran into the garage to get started.

Later, the monster siblings were preparing for the fair by playing their own instruments rather terribly. Just then, their father Lynn Sr was raking the backyard when he heard the awful cacophony.

"What is that noise?" He said. "It's catchy!" He moved over to the garage where he saw his children rehearsing.

"What's going on over here?"

"We're starting a family band." Lincoln answered.

"Oh, oh! You know, your old man used to be in a band." Lynn Sr. explained. "Although, it ended on a...on a sour note. And not the good kind."

Flashback to the werewolf's old days of college, he was in a band with his beastly dorm mates. While they were rocking the drums and guitars, dad playing the cowbell. As you can imagine, they were not crazy abiut having a cowbell in a heavy metal band.

"Dude! You're out of the band!" They both said and poor Lynn Sr was crying out of the dorm with his dreams crushed.

Back in present time, all the children gathered around feeling sorry for the poor werewolf and petted him.

"Well, you can be in our band!" The demon said.

"Really?!" Lynn Sr got up wagging his tail in delight.

"Yeah, all kinds of music are welcome here."

"If you insist!" With that he tore off his pants and started to bang his cowbell. A few of the siblings were disturbed at the sight.
