This time she is actually a main character of the story and the 3rd main protagonist of the story alongside Skipper and Bender. She joins the team as a result of her friendship with Bender and his friends with her own brand of smarts, common sense which she believes is lacking in Bender's team and the Mega Mind that belongs to her friend and crush Marcus.

Lydia made her first appearance in the story in the 2nd half of Episode 1, where she finishes her homework and does morning routine. While heading to school she discovers all of the town is completely white and everyone and everything was wiped out. This shocks her as that means her friends, school and just about everything other than the Mega Mind was destroyed. It seems she has Thawne's attention as he briefly appears without her knowing, which Starfire makes her know of it and lets her know that her parents were killed when getting the newspaper which she doesn't notice because she was so focused on a major project. Lydia joins Starfire and The B Team to help against Thawne and to rescue Bender and Jorgen. Bender accepts her in the team, after hearing what when on and is one of the more open one to working with Rick and gives the megamind that Rick uses to get info on Thawne while denying her real thoughts on her friend.Afterwards she finds a mysterious journal while tells her a lot of the multiverse though Twilight warns her about it. While she reads it, Slade responds to the gang's message and she as well as Phineas get info from Slade and Harrison. The next morning she hands the info to the sobering Bender, Skipper, Rick and Julian before she meets Amanda and is the only one who recognizes her universe and who she is. She joins Bender, Starfire and Skipper in their video call to Slade about their dealings with Thawne and Slade like Twilight warns her about the journal she is reading out of though Harrison believes that Lydia should read the journal and consult him if she intends to use it.

She talks to Amanda about this and Amanda points if Slade is telling her this, that she ought to listen, though she explains what she mentions to Harry. She does just this when Lydia calls Harry and consorts him. Lydia realizes she must keep this a bit from Bender and the others apart from Amanda and find someone who is skilled in sorcery to work with the journal. She ends up finding her boy in someone who Bender knew early on with Kyle the Sorcerer after getting nowhere at a seedy bar who warps her to the desert as Harry informs her. She and Kyle manage to get their hands on the first part of what the Journal asked for and she is sent to find the 2nd part of it by Kyle's magic. She gets in contact with Harry about some more info and makes her way to the second half of the Sun Emblem throughout a long desert trek through the pyramids. She and Kyle part ways after their success and at night, Lydia hears Deathstroke talking with Joker and Toffee and she spies on them and Thawne when he shows up. Lydia learns about what Joker did to the Teen TItans and accidentally makes a noise which Deathstroke hears and she nearly get killed by him, her megamind calls her on it. Lydia resolves to either find Bender or Django and King Julian. She finds Django and Julian and it turns she found Bender's past friends Dib and the others and they're helping her get back to Bender unknown to them. She goes with her friends to fight Deathstroke's followers where Jorgen rescues and brings them back though with the knowledge that The Legion knew she eavesdropped on them. After Skipper gets the teleportation stone,  she talks with him and then with Amanda about her sneaking off where she agrees to tell them.

Lydia snuck with Bender and Skipper on their own quest to get the Sun Embrlem to a dark place She gets Amanda, Finn and Jake to help and keep an eye on her. She runs into a chopper which Dennis is at a gun store getting weapons to kill them. She is found and nearly killed by Dennis. She gets out of the warp she went through and meets A Mysterious Teen named Dawnbeth with metahuman powers and a time traveler who has been trying to correct time. Lydia asks Dawnbeth about the emblem and immediately she knows it's Equestria they're in where she takes her to where Darhk, Jafar, Chrysalis, Machete and Zelena have declared war on them.

Amanda, Finn and Jake eventually find Lydia again who lost contact upon Dennis hunting her. Deathstroke finds out and makes a robotic duplicate to go after her. They find alongside Dib, Bubbles, Milo, Lizbeth, Bender, Skipper,Edd, Dexter and Dee Dee who they got to help for the moment to Equestria. While Lydia and Dawnbeth fight against Chrysalis' force they encounter Unikitty and her team who Grovyle and Kyle have found seen Rip sent them to find Lydia learning of Dennis.

Dennis also tracks them down shortly after his encounter with Bender and Skipper and tries to kill Lydia again  which stalls her while Dawnbeth and Unikitty find Darhk and Jafar who oversee Dennis's hunt on Lydia. Grovyle and Kyle manage to get the drop on Dennis by once again defeating him in a two on one with Grovyle leading the way.

Chrysalis decides to actually kill the resistance which Dawnbeth rises as the leader and has Lydia, Amanda, Finn and Jake go after Her and Machete who are in charge and issues her own protective gear.

The entire heroes are at their own disadvantage due to magic but each of them do give the villains a setback. Lydia does manage to power the emblem using the magic of Unikitty and she works with Amanda to bring the sun back and then they discover the final journal they need as what Lydia has sought. She gets another warp which leads her to Slade's old lair where Bender and Skipper are and the three decide to look into the Disney Magic when Dennis once again arrives and tries to kill all 3 of them where they try to escape him and face him until he is eaten by a crocodile on The Jolly Roger.

Having uncovered two journals, Lydia seeks to get the last journal with Finn, Jake and Amanda as they decide it's important to follow this goal. Twilight who landed with them calls this a mistake and tells them that she warned them this earlier. Amanda calls back and that it's an adventure you think that they're going to listen to her and that they are going to find that journal. Twilight then asks Lydia does she even know where it is, And Lydia does. According to the megamind, it's around here. Finn and Jake ask where is here, and Twilight states that here is in the ship they see, she explains that unlike the other B Team members they were sent a little further in the timeline from the crash Uka Uka caused and they are when Eddy and Bender joined together

Lydia, Twilight and Amanda decide to go after the journal so they don't make an interruption to the timeline, when Finn and Jake comment on that because it feels annoying that they can't when they can easily get the trust of the heroes. Amanda and Lydia both agree and even wanted to but Twilight stated this and she knows more than they do. Amanda, Twilight and Lydia manage to successfully get on the ship undetected until Lizbeth, Boomer and Nina find them and are ready to turn them in until Twilight convinces them they have a journal to find in their ship and that they begin to go looking. Lydia, Twilight and Lizbeth all do question each other's reasons by looking through the articles. This is when Terrance Lewis, Zelena and Vilgax all attack the girls intending to do away with them and Twilight with Amanda is ready to bring them all out while Lydia and Lizbeth go continue to search for it when Finn and Jake also come in and chase Robin and The Titans. Facing them too.  Lizbeth and Lydia both got through the articles they find until the journal is found and Lizbeth gives it to Lydia when Robin comes at them which Lizbeth blocks and breaks his staff and kicks him hard down to the ground and Lydia sneaks out with the journal and hold all three of them to read where Vilgax is ready to catch her when Finn slashes his tentacles and Jake wraps his himself around Vilgax. Uka Uka then appears and tries to take the journals with his powers when Lydia just throws some sand in his face and uses a spell to blind him for a bit and runs into to see the others.

Lydia brings the journals down and creates a portal with Jimmy and Rick's help to bring out the author of the journals she found. Amanda and Finn come down to find it's Ford Pines who Lydia is eager to meet in regards to the journals and after a little hostility they become friends. Lydia, Amanda, Finn and Ford go to save Steven and she goes with Ford. Ford tells her about the stories he wrote on Bender and co and more while staking out on the Legion. Once Ford and her find the heroes they go to save Bender, Rick and Skipper and they head to the vanishing point to go after Thawne.

They find it but Deathstroke has found them and Lydia is found by Stanford and Amanda who manage to help her fend off Deathstroke after she finds the Ultra Recon Gauntlets and she is brought back to where the heroes where last alongside Lincoln and his sisters. Lydia goes to find them and Thawne is nearly going to kill nearly the whole team where she attacks Thawne and dishes one hell of a revenge attack on Thawne, by curb-stomping the shit out of him in a way that would have killed him since he snapped his neck back in place out the assault and almost goes for the telefrag until Thawne has the last word. She admits she has the amulet and found a family to help her. Afterwards, Ford and Lisa both find out the megamind is really Marcus's mind in there and they manage to bring him back to life making her very happy

In-between Thawne getting the spear, Lydia bonds with Lincoln over their mutual interest and gets with Marcus. Ford also tells her of his encounters with a evil demon from an dimensional and gives something to her to keep him out of their dimension. She also is protected from the Spear's effects from Ford as he gives up his trinkets to keep her safe and she also uses it to protect Marcus. She wakes up with Bender, Rick, Skipper, Lincoln, Marcus and Twilight and realizes what just happened and they go to try and stop Thawne. Lydia runs into Gothamnites Bruce Wayne who is part of Team Free Will and was sent to stop Lydia from going through the black hole forever and that he is going to fight buy their sides against Thawne like he and the team has been doing.

This is where Deathstroke is revealed and Lydia enters an uncomfortable alliance with him alongside her friends to stop Thawne and bring the universe back. Rather than fight Thawne, Lydia tries to get through to her friend to snap out of her brainwashing.

Lydia is saved by the crew and this is when some of the heroes question Lydia, on Bill and her knowledge on Bill and she admits she as told by Ford about Bill and was given the rift to keep Cipher out, and also her unleashing Ford may have unleashed Bill. Bender and Skipper call her on this albeit dialing it back when Lydia justifies herself and the others get her. Lydia also reminds them that she has the spear of destiny still and she can use it since she knows how to read the manuscript

Though she specifies that they can find more on Bill through Ford's bunker which she gets help from Marcus, The Louds, Bruce and Selina who do find his notes but Bill and Mandarin both arrive to get the notes and to kill them. Lydia pepper sprays Bill's eye and escapes with the others and they come back with the info.

When it comes to the spear of destiny, she is eventually picked to use the spear, and Lydia agrees to it eventually after prompting from Marcus and she uses it to change the timeline and multiverse for everyone she cares about.

If he wants to cry, voice insecurity and doubt, then he can do that and that it won't make him less of a man to her. Adding to that, Even if their parents abandoned them or died, which she is a bit doubtful of, they're still here and that even if it's just her and him in the world then so be it.

She briefly agrees with the co-dependent thing that Lincoln thinks on but brushes it aside when Lincoln gives his reasons for it. She then teases him about if he used tongue when he gave CPR to her, which he denies saying that if he did, he would have to be enamored with the french and that he would have to be in love with her and not be just best friends which the two get a laugh with the irony of the situation being lost on them considering that their real feelings for each other being indeed romantic as the Resistance can tell .

He saw deaths, he saw a fallen hero from the group who turned against them, He saw the possibility of a enemy of his returning to meddle with his life and saw a monster resembling his sisters. Ronnie Anne asks Lincolin how can he see that when Lucy is the one with the visions and Lydia questions the specifics. Lincolin admits to them he doesn't know any of them, he just saw them in random flashs of light which Lydia suspects that Bill Cipher is doing.

Lydia, Lincolin, Crowley and Amanda meanwhile discuss Lincolin's own visions and Lincolin reveals he saw another one. The Death of some of their teammates, Amanda asks who and Lincolin doesn't know but he did see 3 or 4 fall. Crowley and Lydia ponder that what could Bill be doing to Lincolin considering his lack of personal history compared to Lydia and Ford. Lydia feels Bill is trying to personally trying to hurt Lydia through Lincolin, though Amanda does think maybe he saw that vision when Ushari was choking him. Lincolin tells Amanda that he saw it afterwards and it wasn't him as he was there when it happens, Crowley offers to smack him to see if he gets another vision which Lincolin tells him not to, Lydia doesn't deounce Crowley but does think Lincolin can see someone who knows something about visions and prohecies and she pulls a book out and start reading it. Amanda and Crowley ask Lydia who she is planning to call, Lydia tells them that she is going to get someone who can help figure this stuff out to why he's seeing things

Lydia explains Bill attacked her too with a nightmare about she is powerless to save her friends and she had to take deep breaths about it. Lincolin wants to go find the seers about his visions and Lydia offers to go with him.

Lydia and Lincolin arrive at the oracle/seer location and they ask what exactly is happening with Lincolin. They tell Lydia, that what is happening to Lincolin and these visions he keeps having are progonsis of what will happen which Lydia replies she knows that but what does it mean. She is told it could be psychological and that he can't get somethign out of his head like  a traumamtic event and that he is being given these maybe because of an involvement with a fellow oracle which she suspects Lucy. In order to figure out what's wrong, she and Lincolin are told to go that whatever is bothering him they must check his head, and acquire an expert on it.

Lydia and Lincolin seem sastified until Morag attacks Lincolin and Lydia and focuses on Lincolin who is in pain as a result of Jin's ashes being acciendtly inhaled by him and Morag torments Lincolin which angers Lydia and Morag calls in Ace and Big Billy to hold her back. Lydia not wasting time equips her power gauntlets and smacks them out of the way and begins beating down on Morag and comes close to just ready to kill her with fury on her face.

Once again she smashes Morag's head in and is nearly ready to kill her, but Lincolin tells her don't be like her and Lydia calms down and just kicks Morag out.

Chapter 4

Lincoln has managed to recover from his attack to the relef of Lydia, Ronnie Anne and Ford who have stayed by his side ever since he was unconsciousness. Lincolin asks how long he was out, and Ford tells Lincolin that he was out for 36 hours and that he being doing testing on Lincolin. Lydia who sat by Lincolin's bedside asks Ford what kind and Ford just says some kind. Ronnie Anne lightly hits him affectionaly glad that he is still alive which he does back to her. Lydia does tell LIncolin that he didn't fully recover as well he'll see, Lincolin asks Lydia what didn't recover and Ronnie Anne just states that just rub his gut

Lincolin finds to his horror that he has a scar on his chest which came from that attack and asks the other 3 about it. He was scared physically by Morag and a bit psychologically as the monster had his sister's heads on it which he was being gaslighted into thinking he was a terrible brother, Ronnie Anne points that is anything but the truth, while Lydia noticed that it had 9 heads, someone was missing. Lincolin takes both of their words for it and ponders about what he inhaled before hand beleivinvg that had a hand in his shock.

As Ronnie Anne and Lydia wait for Ford, they start talking about Lincolin and how they thought they lost him. Ronnie Anne does ask Lydia why she asked to talk to his genius sister Lisa, and Lydia explains she needed Lisa to use a mindblower on one of her thoughts decided she wanted to keep herself from being distracted from something that came up. Ronnie Anne guesses it had to with Lincolin and asks Lydia what is her exact feelings for Lincolin, Lydia just states they're just friends, best friends, partners. Ronnie Anne does point out how far Lydia went to save Lincolin and that no sane person would nearly kill someone over their partner being tortured like that. Lydia defends herself from Ronnie Anne and points out Morag was scarring Lincolin and that she needed to be taken down a peg, she does admit that Morag is proably going to want to kill her and Lincolin now. Ronnie Anne points her own concern that she stayed by his side during he was passed out, and states that Lydia should keep calm and not get so crazy over this. Ford calls the two back in as he is done.

Ford tells Lydia and Ronnie Anne that he found something unusual in Lincolin's cells and that what he inhaled earlier in those ashes might be doing some work on him and he may not be aware of it, Bill CIpher arrives not so shortly afterwards on the trio

Lydia, Lincolin and Ford all not impressed with Bill's arrival and look ready to attack him. Bill taunts Lincolin about how his little creature he made. Linc asks how it came to be, Bill states that he was able to read into his great fear and use it on him, Lydia points out that he can't use it anymore which Bill brushes off. Toying with her braces, Bill took some enjoyment in watching Lydia nearly kill Morag as they made her lose control over a tom turkey tail kid who is clearly nuts as he stares at a wall. Lincolin takes offense to it and Bill just snaps his fingers and Lydia gets weighted down by bigger braces which Ford takes out a weapon and fires it at Bill. Lincolin trys to restrain Bill though Bill just drops Lydia on Lincolin telling him the adults need to talk knocking both of them out. Bill and Ford engage in conversation about their odds and Bill reveals he knows Ford has that riff that he's keeping to stop Bill from causing Weirdmageon and weaks his power. and that this game will get interesting. Ford tells him to get lost, Bill agrees but warns that things will change and Ford will the last of the crew to suffer.

Lydia's enlarged braces shrink as she wakes up and Lincolin asks Ford what to do now. Ford states that if Lincolin gets any more halluncations or visions inform him or Lydia. Also if he sees Bill Cipher in them

It seems that both Lydia and Linc have entered the actual space station and begin investigating the station. Lincolin is actually pretty impressed with what he's seeing and Lydia tells him to focus though she herself does admire the detail of the station. Lydia contacts Ford that she is in the station with Lincolin and they're fine and Ford advises her to go to try and find Castiel, Rick and Louise then get back to the dock. Lydia agrees and after she puts sighs back on Lincoln, he's in his Ace Savry Costume ready to invesitgate. Lincolin feels a bit awkard about changing in front of her, Lydia asks why did he bring the costume, Linc admits it's cool and Lydia rolls her eyes with a smile and admits that this is a rarirty so they might as well as have some fun.

The Two end up investigating and they find Storm troopers who go open fire on them. Lincolin distracts few with cards while Lydia swipes one of their blasters and opens fire on them passing one to Lincolin so he can get some chance himself. They Go through the hallways and they see Rick and Castiel who are allowing the two to cross their 1st bridge. Lincolin tries to get their attention but Rick states they're get back to them later and they're trying to find Louise and Castiel decides to continue helping the two though.

The kids continue going through the areas with Lincolin and Lydia taking turns going on each other's shoulders and tossing each other to stall the upcoming storm troopers in the next 2 waves while the other shoots at them. Before they reach a machine that they quickly build to allow them to continue traveling.

Lincolin gets a grappling hook out of his Ace Savry costume and uses it to help them travel with Lydia grabbing on Linc's foot as he does so. Afterwards, Lydia and Lincoin put on some helmets to disguise themselves and they manage to sneak pass a lot of them until they reach a room where they are found so Lincolin and Lydia decide to grab each other by the arm and spin each other in a circle to shoot all of them out and they're done.

Lydia notices Lincolin was shot and wants to get some meds but Lincolin's wounds suddenly start healing himself. Lydia asks Lincolin if this is new, Lincolin states it is, he didn't know about his ability to regenerate from wounds, He just noticed now. Lydia begins to notice the door slams shut and Morag shows up with Emma and Rikki. Morag orders Emma and Rikki to grab the girl and Lincolin wonders why Morag went with the Disney Villains and realizes that she is after both of them. Morag prepares a bucket of water for Emma and Rikki as she announces she's going to kill them both for revenge for Lydia nearly killing her and Lincolin for foiling her and that for Lydia she preparing a nasty fate for her having Emma use her Ice powers to pull water on Lydia and freeze it following by Morag shattering the ice. Lincoin horrified asks what Morag is going to do to him and she says that why she will literally shatter Lydia and with Lincolin she'll scorch him alive. She asks Rikki to grab Lincolin while Emma has Lydia.

Lydia states does Lincolin's healing factor help him, Lincolin's doubts come down to how far it goes as he just discovered it. Lydia asks would he like to discover the extent, Lincolin seems uneasy, but goes along with it, and Lincolin asks Lydia to hit him as they are being placed in buckets of hot and ice cold water. Lydia recultant but ultimately goes through it by putting her on the gauntlets and socking him hard on the chest which does cause one heck of a wound which starts healing but slowly. Morag is quick to notice and asks Rikki to just boil him. Lydia brings herself able to still move and pushes Morag down and Lincoin feels his feet are stil burning but he pulls through himself to save Lydia who Morag has Emma hold her up to start freezing her and instead freezing the water after Lydia takes her legs and Lydia throws the ice at Morag.

This is when Amanda and Cleo show up and Cleo whales on Morag for trying to murder Lydia and Lincolin and unlike last time she gives no shits about being ganged up, shaping her water powers and using them to keep them stalling and Amanda grabs both Lydia and Lincolin to prevent them from being hurt further. Morag uses a smoke bomb to escape and Cleo slams her hand in frustation about not getting Morag. Cleo hold Lydia while Amanda holds Lincolin and they tell Ford they need to bring them back.

Chapter 5

Lydia, Lincolin, Ford, Amanda, Cleo, Castiel, Rick, Crowley, Blissina, Shark Boy, Lava Girl, Ronnie Anne, Louise, May, Dawn, Doc and James Rogers Arrive at Newtopia. Ford and Rick lecture the group about Amphibia and that this is a new land to all them and to be  extra careful.

Ford explains that this world is full of nothing but reptiles like frogs, toads, newts etc and this is one of the most unsual worlds he has heard of.  This digusts some of the girls though Lydia, Ronnie Anne and Louise seems to be quite exicited at such prospects. When called on this, Louise calls the other girls sissies and that they're tough like her, Ronnie and Lydia. Lydia states it's not a matter of toughness it's tolerance but yes that makes sense.

Ford talks to Lydia, Lincolin, Amanda and Cleo after sending everyone out led by Rick, Cas and Crowley. Ford asks Lincolin asking if any more unusual aspects happened to him lately and Lincolin mentions that he was attacked and yet his injuries healed and quick, referring to it as a healing factor. Ford questions Bill's real plan and knows Toffee has hiding his agenda and now it's time for it to become apparent. Lydia who has been quiet is thinking about what's going with him and Ford asks of Lydia's opinon.

Lydia feels that the healing factor is only the start of some of Linc's alterations and that some other things are going to happen and not out of instinct, since she noticed that when Morag had Emma and Rikki attack both of them. Amanda comments that Lydia has been trying to figure out what's happening to him for nights and not getting any sleep, Lydia states she's fine and gets her stuff. Cleo concerned for Lydia's insomnia asks Amanda and Lincolin to assist her in trying to make sure Lydia doesn't overwork herself.

Lydia is very tired as she is getting her stuff, when something feels upside down and she hears Bill. Lydia confronts Bill about what he is up to, Bill taunts Lydia that he has big plans, making new and old friends and setting up the big day. Lydia questions him on why he isn't bugging Ford. Bill states Ford is my main guy to bug, doesn't mean he won't go after his apprentice too and states that Stanford is clearly hiding something from the rest of them and that he is still too secrective to trust even the people he cares about most. Lydia calls Bill out for thinking that about Ford when he isn't that far off. Bill states that Ford can't always protect her and that turkey tom kid,  Lydia almost ready to get Bill putting her gauntlets ready to fight Bill but collapses out of fatigue. Bill just leaves after some destruction occurs.

Lincolin arrives and asks Lydia if she was okay, Lydia tells him, she saw Bill and he was cryptic and making threats to her. Lincolin tells Lydia she needs to sleep and he understands Lydia is trying to help him but she can't put her ability to sleep aside for it and that he'll help her not overwork herself. Lydia says she has to save him from what's going on with him which Linc retorts he has to save her himself as her state is why Bill targeted her like he did with Ford. Lincolin grabs Lydia's hand and runs back to the others. Lydia throws up a bit and asks Lincolin how did he get so quick, Lincolin questions this too to himself.

After Toffee blows up parts of Newtopia, Ford, Lydia and Lincolin decide they must split up to deal with the split up group  and that they must keep the land safe. Cleo, Castiel and Crowley are the odd ones who head to the castle intend to reside safety as Rick instructs them that Sid is in there somewhere and they can get her there.

Still a bit tired, Lydia is trying to figure out her bearing as she tries to piece together everything that's going on. When she is grabbed by NOS-4A2 who snuck up on her, and he taunts her about the lack of sleep she's been having. Lydia questions if he's going to bite her and NOS-4A2 denies as he hates blood and he'll lose his appettite as a result. Lydia asks about the expolsion caused which NOS-4A2 states was Toffee's plan to invade this land confirming what Linc said to her. He's just here to further inconvience her knowing that Bill messed with her earlier, Lydia refuses to take this lying down and starts to put on the gauntlets again which NOS-4A2 playfully points out she's nothing wihout them at least that's what Toffee said.

Lydia pulls a quick one on him by basically throwing a rock at him. Nos-4A2 just fires an energy blast back at her which she activates the sheild aspect of the gauntlet to block it. NOS-4A2 then decides to do what he did to Ford and drags Lydia across the pavement slamming her into the ground until she decide to bite his hand which he does feel. Lydia then thinks up using intense light from the gauntlet to burn NOS-4A2, which does the job but not enough to actually burn him and Lydia just punches him by using the power Gem. NOS-4A2 decides to just torture her with her braces and uses his powers to mess with her teeth which he gets a sheer delight out of re arranging her teeth and forcing her to spit out teeth and then delibaretly tries to have Lydia choke on a tooth which has her gag and him laugh.

Lydia then out of real fury slams NOS-4A2 to herself multiple times to force the tooth out of her throat and then She glares angrily at NOS-4A2 and taps into the MInd Gem and start slamming NOS-4A2 telekneiticnally until he is unable to move and then is nearly ready to get rid of him for good until she collapses and NOS-4A2 make his escape

Ford finds Lydia and he is scared to see what happened to her and runs to get her to a hopsital.  

Lydia finally wakes up after a while and she's in the hopsital to the sigh and relief of Ford, Ronnie Anne, Lincolin, Anne, Luz, Cleo and Amanda where she wanders how long she was out. Ford states she was out for a day and they needed to fix her teeth, Lydia stated she had one fall out, Amanda said that almost every tooth fell out except for one and they did what they do. Lydia moans how much she hates her braces.

Lydia wonders who Anne and Luz are, Ford tells her that he met them after dealing with Mandarin and they told him everything as Sid told them about Lydia, Ford and the others. Anne thanks them for helping out with the Cult and Luz explains that she tried to help them with getting Lydia's teeth back in place despite only meeting them.  Lydia wonders what else happened, Lincolin and Ford say that they lost quite a few of their allies to comas and trophization thanks to Toffee's attack so they weren't exactly 100% victorius. Lydia is ready to go after Toffee, but Ronnie Anne holds her down saying she still needs to rest as that was why she's in the hopsital and why her teeth got mangled by NOS-4A2 and psychologically tormented by  Bill Cipher, because she worked herself without getting any sleep.  

Chapter 6

Everyone is asleep in the Newtopia Castle as everyone is preparing to leave to Austrailia the following day.

Lincoln and Lydia are both sleeping in the bed Lydia was lying in regards to her teeth and Lincoln manages to wake up at 1am and sits on the balcony thinking to himself and Lydia notices and sees Lincoln on the balcony

Lydia asks what's Lincoln doing up this late, and Lincoln has been thinking about everything that has happened and how he's going to move foward. He tells Lydia that just like her, he's trying to figure what's happening to him. Lydia points out he was techinally sleeping with 4 hours with her and then he just wakes up. Lydia gets a phone call and hears her pizza and root beer are here. Lincoln confesses he used her phone to order pizza due to Lydia having a constant history ordering pizza for several days in a row. Lydia rolls her eyes at this but accepts this and gets it since she took out pizza so much during her insomniac days

As the two drink root beer and eat pizza, Lincoln asks Lydia about why she's been acting so sleep deprived and determined regarding him. Lydia confesses to Lincoln that  he is her closest friend and the one most likely to be by her side, Lincoln confused about this asks Lydia what she really means. Lydia points out age is very much a reason, Cleo and Amanda are both almost young adults and Ford is rather old and this worries her that she'll lose Cleo, Amanda and Ford all within years or get out of touch with them. Lincoln is really her only friend outside of Ronnie Anne and Sid she has

Lincoln questions what about her friends at Flying Rhino?. Lydia reveals that her family is moving and she decided to be just friends with Marcus which she came off a bit fresh off of when she when to meet Amanda and Cleo.  Lydia doesn't even know where she moving to so She might have to find a way to see everyone again. Lincoln sympthatizes with Lydia realizing her struggles and why hasn't Lydia told anyone.

Lydia just didn't want someone worrying about her, but felt comfortable telling her partner when it was just  them. Lincoln rests on Lydia's shoulder as he feels estactic that Lydia chose to confide in him. He sees the moon and asks if she  ever seen a red moon and Lydia never has she tells him, Lincoln tells her it's a blood moon and it's a rarity that the two can see as he rests his head on her lap As the two continue to look at the moon.

Lydia, Lincolin, Ford, Cleo, Amanda, Rick, Cas, Crowley, Luz, Anne, Cricket Green, Blissina, Dawn, Ronnie Anne, Sid Chang, King, Eda, Sprig all wake up after their night. Lydia and Lincoln are both quite sleepy still which Ford notes and asks what where they doing, Lincoln tells Ford he was talking with Lydia and snacking on pizza and soft drinks. Cleo mothers Lydia about ignoring the order to get some sleep, Lydia states she got 4 more hours of sleep and Lincoln got up first.

Luz tells Lydia and Lincoln that she'll saw them awake and she eavesdrops on them. Lydia wonders why Luz was doing this to. Luz was needed a glass of water and she heard them talking and listened for a bit. Lincoln asked if she saw the blood moon, Luz did see it and she offers to be Lydia's friend understanding her stuggles. Lincoln tells Lydia her worries were for naught, at least slightly. Lydia agrees and asks Luz for her number and Luz puts her number in Lydia's phone as the three board the ship with the rest of them waiting for them.

Rick, Eda and Ford get the ship ready and they set sail to Austrailla as everyone sits in their seats. Ford explains to Lydia and Lincoln the riff he has that is keeping Bill Cipher at bay and that he told everyone else yesterday.

Lydia recongizes Cleo's house due to Cleo showing pictures of her home to her and describing it to her and Amanda asks Cleo what will her parents think and Cleo states that it's all good they're out on their honeymoon their 2nd one and that they will have the house to themselves other than her sister. This makes Lydia shudder which Sid asks Lydia to why she did that, Lydia tells Sid that she is a bit aware of Cleo's sister and what Cleo told Lydia about her. Luz tells Lydia that Cleo's sister can't be that bad she just has a bad impression of her due to Cleo's persepctive.

Cleo introduces Ford, Lydia, Lincoln, Amanda, Luz, Anne and Cricket to Lewis, Crowley shows him to the bedroom. Cricket eating some snacks with Anne and Lincoln wonders how could he help, Cleo tells them that Lewis has dealt with this before in her friend Emma, and he made the cure. Amanda seems impressed with this and tells Cleo she bagged the right one. This is when Cleo's sister Kim comes in the door and reminds Cleo that she was given reponsibility not to throw a big party. Luz tells her that this isn't a party, they're on this mission to save her friends and asks Lydia to back her up

Lydia under her breath confirms this and Kim remembers  Lydia is the person Cleo keeps talking about in fondness and comments how Cleo finally brought in Lydia to their home after all this time and comments on her being animated, feeling offended that she needed a cartoon character to be a real sister. Lydia barely contains her anger and fury walks out to vent. Amanda snarks at Cleo some sister she has and everyone does so as well other than Luz who goes to see Lydia about this.

Lydia vents on the peer frustrated with being insulted like that. Ford, Anne and Luz show up and ask Lydia what's up. Lydia points out that she tried to see the optimistic side of it like Luz said and she got insulted. Luz just wanted to help Lydia with her problem which Lydia does appreciate, Anne weights in her own theory to them. When asked, Anne states that Kim is just jealous that Lydia has a better relationship with Cleo than herself and that she being bratty over this, Lydia points out that she's a brat regardless and Cleo has told her that, she also feels like she just being lashed out against over thinking she was an imaginary friend. Ford tells Lydia that he understands Cleo's complicated relationship with her sister as he himself has a brother and despite their differences they were best friends, their only friend. He knows the two truly care about each other and can show it on a good day

Cleo comes outside after telling her friends to help Lewis set up while she talks to Lydia, dragging Kim out with her. Cleo tells Lydia that she wants the girls to talk when another explosion goes off knocking both of them over. Cleo is grazed but Kim is knocked over and almost ready to fall in the water and Cleo grabs her hand desparate to save her, wanting to save her sister. Ford reminds Lydia of what he said, on a good day they truly love each other.

Lincoln manages to save Kim  from drowning and brings her to the shore She takes a liking to Lincoln and start hitting on him even wanting to take him out for lunch holding his hand no less. Lydia having enough of this and seething with fury interveres telling Kim, that he is booked and they have an argument with Kim asking is  Lydia supposed to be Lincoln's girlfriend, Lydia denies this and says she's is Lincoln's sidekick. Kim then tells her to stay out of his personal life then and that she wants to go tonight with Lincoln and asks him, Lincoln too much of a doormat says yes and Kim leaves telling Lincoln to see him later.

Lydia is utterly and transparently furious at Cleo's sister and almost punches a wall which Cleo notices. Cleo tells Lydia that they'll talk later and to calm down, Lincoln tells Lydia he doesn't have any interest in her he just is doing it to get her away from Lydia for a while. Ford decides that the best way to work on the fish fever cure is to split up and get the job done. Ford and Lincoln agree to take most of the crew out while Lydia, Cricket and Cleo decide to stay put at the house.

Cleo is in the bathroom taking her bath as a mermaid and comments that it's been a while since she's been one and it's nice to let her hair down and be relaxed. Cricket and Lydia who are both there agree Cleo then brings up to Lydia the elephant in the room, she asks Lydia why is she so hostile towards her sister, Cricket notes that what Sid told him about Lydia this is unlike her to be like that.

Lydia tells Cleo and Cricket that Kim is a brat, and bluntly insulted her for no reason. She points out even if she has her reasons, Kim has no excuse to be this way to her. She was warned and felt she didn't listen. Cricket noted that someone just brought a nasty side of her and Cleo's sister was who. Lydia adds that Kim is steping on her territory as well which adds to the fuel, Lydia covers her mouth as soon as she said this which Cleo and Cricket catch this.

Cleo and Cricket smirk at Lydia who questions this. Cleo states it has to do with Lincoln doesn't it?, Lydia admits that the fact Kim blatantly hit on Lincoln angered her further, Cleo knows Lydia isn't just mad about that, she needles Lydia into admitting she has a crush on Lincoln.

Lydia acknowledges that Lincoln is a perfect best friend, and that she admires him for him being kind, deep, funny, rockin, tough, friendly and smart. While also acknowledging She finds Lincoln adorable and endearingly dorky. It's just that Lydia doesn't want to be distracted from their mission which is why Lydia asked Lincoln's sister Lisa to phaze her thoughts of loving him when she realized them when she went violentally protective on Morag, An Additonal reason is becuase they're both best friends and preteens it would be just awkard for them to be a thing.

Cleo asks about Ronnie Anne and why Lydia isn't petrubed by her despite Ronnie's own closeness to him, Lydia tells Cleo that Ronnie Anne is her friend and one of her best friends. Adding to that, both of them know better than to compete and it would hurt the 3 parties involved and everyone associated, Love triangles do that and Lydia doesn't want to lose Ronnie Anne, Lincoln or Sid as a friend.

Cricket asks Lydia why hasn't she told him this, Lydia points out that she's trying to convince her self they're just best friends. Cleo wanting Lydia to be happy, trying to push her into confessing this revelation of feelings, as she feels that the two have really good chemistry with each other. Lydia denies this and wants to figure this out herself, Cricket asides to Cleo and states how Lydia can be so aware and so oblivious at the same time.

Lydia takes Lincoln to the back and ties his bow up telling him to keep an eye incase for NOS-4A2, She suspects he will try to attack Lincoln like her and Ford. Lincoln states he'll be fine, he hasn't foreseen anything bad happened. Lydia admits this is odd and tells Lincoln that tell Ford and her anything that happens. Kim then shows up and tells Lincoln and it's time and he can talk to the red head later. Cleo wishes Kim good  luck and tells Lincoln not to feel too bad.

Luz calms Lydia down, and tells her that she'll spy on Lincoln with Anne and Cricket if she wants. Lydia wants them to keep an eye on NOS-4A2's possible appearance, Cricket asks if this is about Lincoln, which gets Luz and Anne giving teasing looks at her. Lydia states her supsicon of the vampire is why first and foremost. Sid and Ronnie Anne ask Lydia what is she intending to do.

Lydia, Ronnie Anne, Sid, Crowley and King come back with a lot of shrimp as Crowley had the hand to go shrimp boating instead and Lydia thanks Crowley, Ronnie, Sid and King for showing her a good time. Crowley states that it was his idea and that he wanted in on Sid and King's next fishing trip, Ronnie Anne offers the fish to Emma and Rikki and asks where Cleo is. Rikki states Cleo is on a date with Lewis and that Ford was looking for Lincoln she overheard. Lydia tells her he was on a date with Cleo's sister and Ford knew this. Amanda shows up and states that Ford is trying to save Lincoln as Lincoln didn't forsee this as Bill took away that power from him as he and Eda  saw Bill. Lydia realizes she needs to save Lincoln and Ronnie Anne offers to come with her, Lydia tells her to get her skateboard and Lydia will get her helmet.

Lydia and Ronnie Anne show up asking where is Lincoln, He's in trouble. Anne states that yeah they knew that already as NOS-4A2 was here like Lydia suspected. Ronnie Anne explains that Lincoln hasn't seen visions because Bill Cipher took it way and that he used it as a way to torture Lincoln. Lydia asks Ronnie Anne to take her to N0S-4A2. Lincoln is defending Kim from N0S-4A2 intending to make sure she isn't killed by NOS-4A2, N0S-4A2 decides to pick up Lincoln and is ready to slash Lincolin once more to finish what Morag started. Eda, Ford and Lydia all show up in time to stop this, Eda uses her magic to keep NOS-4A2 from this and Lydia goes to save Lincoln from this with Lincoln falling onto Lydia.

Lincolin states this is something he has to do for himself and  tells Eda and Ford to get Kim out of here. Lydia asks what about her, Lincolin wants Lydia to get some retailation on the vampire and asks her to help him with it. NOS-4A2 intends to finish what he started to do and kill Lydia. Lincoln attacks N0S-4A2 straight out and grabs his torso and tosses him who regains his landing and Lydia gets a rope to keep NOS-4A2 disposed for Lincoln to attack him and Lincoln does that smacking him in the head and N0S-4a2 slashes Lincoln in the chest, giving Lydes some concern and it turns he has physical strength to his name and his chest scar is sharper. Lydia's concern turns to surpise which turns to interest. NOS-4A2 intends to snap the rope but Lincoln grabs his mouth and tells Lydia to do the honors and she smashes NOS-4A2's fangs.

Ford is doing a body scan on Lincoln with Lydia, Amanda,Ronnie Anne, Anne, Castiel and Luz are watching as Ford is detecting  that it seems Lincoln's attributes seem superhuman in ability and this latest attack proved it. Anne comments that Lincoln seems pretty strong for someone  who is pretty geeky, Lydia states that these abilities seem to come in an instinct an she asks Ford did Bill have an effect on this, and Ford confirms Bill did not as Ford did experimenting on Lincoln and he reacted quick andwhen he hurt Lincoln slighty he healed quickly.Luz comments on the scar looks pretty damn good on someone who is dorky like Lincoln  and Lydia tells Luz half curtingly that Lincoln's eyes are up there.

Lydia, Luz and Anne pack some over night bags since they suspect they're staying at Mako Island  overnight, Lydia asks about the date herself and Anne states nothing really susipcous happened between them, and that Lincoln was trying to give advice on being a better sister to Cleo. Lydia wondered why she asked that, Anne tells Lydia that Kim hates and is jealous of Lydia for that reason feeling Lydia was stealing Cleo from her. Lydia states she thought Kim was stealing Lincoln from her, Luz needles her about Lincoln being Lydia's territory and that Kim's feelings for her seem to be sincere, Luz does apologize about the comment she made earlier and Lydia states it's fine, Luz is her friend so it'll get a pass. Anne unkown to them is packing pranks to prank friends with Sprig as Sprig is filling her overbag with pranks.

The Morning afterwards and is everyone is alseep except Ford and Eda who decided to stay up and keep an vilgant eye  while drinking together about their lives. Lydia and Lincoln are asleep in a sleeping blanket they shared together with Lincoln lying on Lydia as he just felt knocked out from the night.Lydia, Lincoln, Cricket and Anne drop Rikki in the pool and state thank god they got here as Cricket states were out  of sea food and Rikki was almost ready to try and eat him. Anne comments that he's a bug not a fish,Cricket states she halluncated him as  a fish

  Lydia, Sid, King, Lewis,Ford and Eda are watching everyone have fun and feel very satisfied with their accomplishments, so to Ford feels that it was warned. Ford also tells Lydia he was fine with her fishing with Sid, King, Ronnie Anne and Crowley and that Lincoln's night out was them both trying to do something normal. Lydia asks what is Ford's relationship with Eda they seem pretty close, and Eda states that the two are two parent like adults basically bonding over their the kids making them feel like the parents they never were. Sid tags Lydia that she's it and to go after her and King and Lydia chases after them laughing.

The evening afterwards where everyone is having a barbquece on Mako Island, Marcy shows up out of the portal and Anne wonders where Marcy was. Lydia asks did Marcy accomplish her mission?, Sid then asks what she find out. Marcy answers Lydia, Sid and Anne with a pentagram zodiac mark and gives it to Ford. Ford asks Marcy where she found it and Marcy states at Whistler Casino where she worked with A Multiversal P.I who Andrias got her into touch with. Lincoln wonders what kind and Marcy states someone who knows the multiverse well and the mission is complete

Amanda asks Marcy about the P.I, and Marcy states she can't diverfuge his name but he and sidekick can be counted on and that she will have them help her when she needs something

Lydia, Lincoln, Luz, Sid, Cleo, Anne, Ford and Amanda all wonder who Marcy could be talking about though Amanda thinks that Marcy is a bit too in the zone, which Anne admits is a recurring issue regarding Marcy.

Chapter 7

Everyone is asleep at Mako Island and decided to go camping and Lydia, Luz and Anne are still awake and all having a discussion. Lydia likes that she has found more close friends her age as she was worried she was losing Ford, Cleo and Amanda due to age differences. Luz asked about Lincoln, Sid and Ronnie Anne and Lydia stated they're her only real close friends that are her age and she's protective over them as she's moving and she doesn't know where.

Anne asks how can she not know where, Lydia states her parents want it to be a suprise so she leaving her own universe, which feels like a change unlike anything. Luz asks Anne to give Lydia her number like Luz did, Anne agrees and trades phone numbers with Lydia. Lydia thanks them, and asks how did they get in their situations. Luz states she wanted to become a witch and fit in despite being weird and Anne was send to Ampiibia from the calamity box with Sasha and Marcy. Lydia acknowledges how sensical that is regarding Anne and Sasha and comments how she doesn't have anything really special.

Luz states that what makes Lydia and default Lincoln and Sid  so interesting that they're ordinary people in a situation apart from Lydia's infinity gauntlets and whatever is going on with Lincoln. Luz confesses that she doesn't always feel comfort with people, but Lydia, Lincoln, Ford, Anne, Marcy Wu and Sid have managed to break that mold, Lydia and Anne both comment on how social awkard she is even to them.  

Lydia, Luz and Anne overhear the scream from Sid, and Lydia realizes Sid's in danger. Anne theoritcally feels that the Cult has followed them, Lydia believes Toffee is directly here, noted his personal attack plans. Anne takes out a blade, Lydia gets her gauntlers and Luz takes her papers, Luz asks Lydia for a pair of her own gauntlets and Lydia explains that only her hands can use them due to their design.  Anne decides to wake up the rest of the team and get ready to go after Toffee.

Lydia, Anne and Luz wake up the rest of the team as soon as that happens Toffee attacks and strands everyone apart from each other thank to him having Ibuki and the Genki Clan smoke bomb everyone.

Lydia and Lincoln are both together in their aduction and they try to get a hold of the others and this is where The Ganggreen gang find them, but they seem to have super powers now thanks to Toffee doing something to them. Lydia and Lincoln do anaysis and know exactly what their powers orginate from. Ace wants to see if Lydia and Lincoln can keep up with them now and that they got these powers to take on the dynamic duo and Lydia states they're trying to kill them. SNake states that's not the point, it's Toffee and Bill that do, not the Gang themselves and they wouldn't if it was up to them. Lincoln decides to start the fight

Lincoln takes on Snake and Big Billy while Lydia fights Ace and Arturo. Grubber uses his own powers to have the two cover their ears letting the 4 of them attack Lydia and Lincoln with Snake grabbing them, and Ace freezzing them while ready to drop Big Billy on them. Lydia summons the power from the gauntlets and stops Big Billy from being dropped on them, hands it over to Lincoln and he tosses it at them, Lydia hands Lincoln some headphones to get around Grubber.

Ace fires icicles at Lydia who summons the mind stone to send them at Ace, who puts an Ice Wall on them and Ace takes an icicle and intend to stab Lydia in the leg. Lydia slides under Ace and then uses the Time Stone to slow down Ace's attempt to catch this. Lydia then summons the power stone to punch through Ace's Ice Walls he forms and is ready to do pound Ace. Arturo dashes very fast at Lydia socking her mulitple times, Lydia switches to the space stone to teleport from it. Ace makes an ice wall and Arturo dashes on the ice and throws Ice balls at her. Lydia uses the Reality stone to turn them into bubbles. Lydia switches back to the power stone and duplicates the speed Arturo uses and then slides on Arturo and tosses him at Ace

Grubber focuses on Lydia and manages to burp loudly and she doesn't have her headphones on as Arturo got rid of them. Ace and Arturo are unconsciusness and Lydia struggles with handling this and trys to decide on what stone to use. She decided to use the mind stone to have telekensis used on Grubber and dropped him to the ground.

Lincoln and Lydia arrive alongisde Ford, Cricket, Louise and Marcy Wu in regard to Toffee pursuing Cleo. which Toffee finds out is because of Lincoln's sense tingling

Toffee seems suprised that Lincoln could do just that. Ford, Lydia, Lincoln, Cricket, Louise and Marcy Wu are ambushed by the Geki Clan who Toffee sent to keep them distracted from the real plan. Cleo pretty much furious with Toffee uses her aerokienesis powers of water as she wanted to keep this power for the most drastic situations

Toffee then impales Cleo with his tail to the shock of Lydia, Lincoln and Ford

Toffee then throws Cleo in the ocean as a way for her to go out. Lydia jumps into the ocean wanting to save Cleo which has Marcy, Ford and Lincoln try to stop her. Lincoln though decides to save her too. Ford calls Lincoln on making this dumb decision, but Lincoln tells ord he is not leaving Lydia like this, Ford states while noble this is a perfect opporunity for Toffee to kill them too.

Lydia, Lincoln, Ford, Marcy Wu, Ronnie Anne Cricket and Louise arrive back to the rest of the group and Amanda asks where is Cleo. Ford states that Toffee has his way with her, and Lydia adds that he murdered Cleo in cold blood and tossed her body into the ocean as well as murdering the other mermaids.

Marcy states that Andiras also showed up to stop Toffee from killing Lydia, Lincoln and themselves as the duo tried to save Cleo's limp body. Lydia still acquired a scale of Cleo's  mermaid body and intends that they must burry it, Louise thinks it's pretty cool Lydia got even that. Lincoln adds despite his new found strength he just didn't have enough breath to save her from possibly drowning.

Sprig, Luz and Anne comfort Lydia, Lincoln and Amanda on their loss as they were all close to her. SId and King are upset as despite their actions, they still lost the girls and had Cleo and her boyfriend as an added bonus, Sid in particular is upset and can't focus on this with this and the fact Ibuki is working for Toffee and was involved in her death. Eda asks Ford what is he thinking of doing

Dawn remembering what Sasha said tells the heroes about what Toffee intends to do and this makes Lydia and the other heroes digusted. Lydia adds this that Toffee gave The Gang Green Gang superpowers to over work them into their life forces being drained, basically Toffee tried to kill them. Dawn is even more digusted at Toffee's callousness and supremacy and questions why did he even recurit non disney villains if he was just going to kill them.

Back in Austraila at the graveyard all the heroes are there holding a ceremonal for the 4 killed teens. Ronnie Anne suspects that KIm will blame Lydia for her sister's death and Lydia states that she would suspect this too due to their hatred of each other in regards to both Cleo and Lincoln. Lincoln is being comforted by Kim over her sister as she knew the two were close, and she does approach Ronnie Anne and Lydia. Lydia and Ronnie Anne prepare to be blasted by her, but to Lydia's suprise, KIm cuts Lydia a break and states that she doesn't blame Lydia for Cleo's death and while they're still rivals she isn't willing to throw her sister's death on Lydia and that they can renew it when the time is right. Lydia shocked by this lack of hostiltiy tells Ronnie Anne and Lincoln it's so unusual on this, Lincoln who is still dirty goes to take a bath and Lydia decides she needs to talk to him. Ronnie Anne wonders if Lydia is going to tell him the truth

Lincoln is getting washed off of the dirt with Lydia basically brushing him off and Lincoln feels cursed that despite everything, he feels a failure for Cleo's death. Lydia states it's not his fault, he did more than he should and if he just went in with a scuba helmet he would have succedded. Lincoln points out he wanted to help Lydia save Cleo due to how close the girls were.

Lincoln regretfully states that he wanted to feel special, he got his wish and he still feels miserabe because he has to adjust to a bigger physique, a scar and dealing with heightened senses. Lydia points that he's oughta be thankful for Eda's ability to make clothes that constrain these changes, Lincoln is thankful for this.

Lydia says Lincoln is better than he thinks he is. Despite these powers he has, Lincoln is still himself and she wouldn't have it any other way and explains that he is special if he can take the use of the Soul stone without dying which suprises both of them. Powers don't make the hero, the person they are makes the hero Lydia tells him and she wouldn't want to be partners with a kid who was arrogant or insfuferable and that she would pick a insecure albeit kind and modest kid to be her partner.

Lincoln wanders if Lydia is mad at Ford for Cleo, Lydia admits she is a little mad with him as she could have saved her and yet all she had is one of Cleo's scales.  Lincoln is ready to get out of the bath and asks Lydia for help as he still is a bit clumsy thanks to the adjustment he mentioned which Lydia grabs him by his arm, helping him out adjust a bit to his feet.

Lydia and Lincoln both see Ford and Lydia calls out Ford for not helping save Cleo as she wanted to save her dear friend. Ford states that had no intent to have Lydia die on his watch and Cleo proably would have been dead either way due to the wounds. Lydia states that there could have been a way to save Cleo even without that, Lincoln calms Lydia about her anger about Ford's words. Lincoln tells Ford that Lydia is right about her being angered that Ford stopped her and him from saving Cleo, but Ford has his own point as well. Ford tells Lydia that she woud have suffocated and he's not intent to let his kid die over something like that or have Toffee have his way with Lydia. Ford also childes Lincoln for stupidly jumping in the water to get Lydia.

Bill Cipher shows up and find the trio and greets them as Red brace face, turkey tom and Ford. Ford asks Bill now what is he here for none of them are asleep. Bill states one of them is sleep deprived and Lincoln aas well as Ford look at Lydia. Lydia states she's awake and it turns out Lincoln is the one sleep deprived. Bill taunts Lincoln for not being see that attack coming at Toffee's hand or N0S-4a2's intruding on him earlier, and that Lincoln only foresaw what CIpher wanted him to see. Lincoln is mad about being messed with and tells Bill to get lost. Bill Cipher baits Lincoln to fisticuff him, when Lydia calms Lincoln off and tells Bill that whatever Bill wants to do with Lincoln, Bill will have to deal with her 1st. Bill moves on to Lydia and taunts her about her inability to save Cleo and that she calls herself some heroine if she can't save her friend, Lydia doesn't listen to Bill and points he orchrasted Cleo's death indirectly as Toffee actively did it.

Ford states that Toffee and Bill won't get away with this and Bill states that he already has gotten away with killng Cleo and others. Bill states that in this game of chess between him and Ford he has the upper hand and that check mate will be soon for Ford and he may have to be make a safrice in order to beat him.

Lincoln and Lydia tell Amanda, Ronnie Anne, Sid and King about their encounter with Bill CIpher with Ford. Amanda asks if Lydia is calm now, Lydia states she is and that Lincoln was the one going nuts. Lincoln tells Lydia he was not going nuts, but he was more sleep deprived than Lydia or Ford which Ronnie Anne asks about. Lincoln tells Ronnie Anne that Bill gaslighted Lincoln into thinking he had the ability to predict the future and then took away when Toffee plotted that major attack.

Ronnie Anne feels that Bill must be aware of Lincoln's close friendship with Ford and Lydia and attacked him through proxy to get at them.  Lydia states that's in Bill's MO and considering that would explain it and that she will need Castiel or Crowley to go into Lincoln to discover what caused the other things to happen to him, Sid asks what other things is Lydia talking about and Lydia tells Sid about everything that Lincoln has shown recently.

Ford decides that he must see his former assistant Fiddleford and puts Lincoln and Lydia in charge of it and it's the most crucial of all their directives. Rick complains why Lydia and Lincoln get the most important task and Amanda shares this stance what makes them so special. Amanda gets they're Ford's closest associates but wonders why them alone and Rick states they're both just normal kids albeit smart ones. Ford states that Lydia and Lincoln are the only normal heroes in the same team and are the most level headed of the crew. Amanda states then she is going to go to protect them, Lincoln states they don't need Amanda's protection, the Double L duo can take care of themselves as he highfives Lydia. Lydia states Amanda can accompany him but they have to deal with the investigation themselves. Amanda agrees to those terms .

Ford and Lydia both have managed ot get a location to Fiddleford, Ford's former assistant and Ford tells Lydia to tell Fiddleford that he sent her and Lincoln to see him. Lincoln, Amanda, Ronnie Anne and Anne show up and Ford comments on why Lincoln is dressed like he's going trick or treating. Lincoln states it's for stealth and that it's a mission, which Anne calls endearing and dorky perfect for Lincoln. Amanda asks Ford if he found the location of his assistant, Ford tells Amanda that the former Northwest mansion is where they must go and to take Lincoln and Lydia to the mansion.

Lydia, Lincoln and Amanda arrive at Northwest Manor and Amanda asks if this is Fiddleford's home. Lydia explains that it used to be the Northwests but they lost it when The Patriach of the Northwest when he invested in Bill Cipher. Lincoln wonders how they knew about Bill, Lydia states that Pacifica's Father invested in Bill and was willing to sell out everyone to be his horsemen of the acolpayse. In turn Bill rearranged his face and Amanda points what an idiot which Lincoln agrees with.

Lydia states that Fiddleford is knowledgeable in certain aspects and that he can help them out. Lincoln tells Amanda to wait outside while he and Lydia go in to the manor. Amanda asks why can't see come, Lincoln explains that he and Lyds need to do this themselves. Lydia compromises and tells Amanda she can come in but they invesitgate

Lydia knocks on the door and Fiddleford answers and Lydia tells him that her name is Lydia and this is Lincoln and that the other girl is Amanda. Lincoln adds that his old colleague Stanford sent them and Fiddleford familar with his old colleague lets them in and he asks what Stanford is requesting them for. Lydia tells him that Ford had an idea he could help out them and their friends regarding Bill Cipher and Toffee, Lincoln asks can he help out?, Fiddleford agrees that he may not know about Toffee, but he does for Bill Cipher and he feels there may be some stuff down in the basement that could help, Lydia states that she and Lincoln will investigate and that Amanda should stay up here.

Lydia and Lincoln investigate and ask what was Ford's idea regarding Fiddleford. Lincoln thinks that possibly Ford has an idea in regards to Bill, Lydia wonders why here in particular and Lincoln points to Lydia something he found and it's a tapstry regarding people bowing to Bill Cipher. Lydia wonders why would the manor have a tapstry of Bill Cipher and Lincoln questions this too once he finds something and shows it to Lydia

Lydia takes it and recongizes a memory gun and Lincoln asks how Lydia knows it's a memory gun and Lydia states that it orginated from this Society of the Blind Eye which she saw on a manual right next to the memory gun. SHe shows the manual to Lincoln who reads it, thinking that maybe they have a plan to do in Bill Cipher, Lincoln states they do have the zodiac signs they're getting but thinks they has to be a better way to do it, Lydia asks Lincoln how this could work, Lincoln states they can make a plan to trap Bill while he's confided in someone's head.

Lydia tells Lincoln to give her the gun and she'll keep it with her in case she needs to use it. Lincoln asks does she know how to use it, Lydia has confidence she does and that he shouldn't worry about her.

Lincoln and Lydia look for a way out as they search around the basement. Lydia feels like a fool for falling for a trap at Toffee's hand and that she should be more alert. Lincoln tells Lydia it's not her fault and that they couldn't possibly have known of that. Lincoln then stares in horror without realizing Lydia is talking to him, Lydia tells Lincoln what's up and then she shares his horror.

The taxidermy animal heads mounted on the wall, which are now oozing blood. They scream as the big fire came from the fireplace as the animal heads begin chanting "ancient sins" in a deep voice, and items start floating in the air. Lincoln tells Lydia that it seems like this is a ghost haunting the basement, Lydia doesn't believe ghosts exist, and Lincoln asks does she at to belive now, and Lydia agrees she will now. Things get worse , and suddenly the flames in the fireplace grow large again. The two hide under a table and a skeleton emerges from the fireplace and the taxidermy animals come to life, and the animals chase the two as the ghost turns them neary everything into wood.

Both of them begin getting scared and unknowngly go separate from one another. Lydia begins hallucating that she is being mocked and scolded for her braces and it feels she got her teeth stuck in a coat hanger, or that her face got hit by a fence. Then magnets begins pinning down Lydia's teeth and another magnet seals itself on her arm as Lydia works to get out of it.

This is when  an hallucation of Ford tells Lydia she's a utter disappointment to him and that she was never his protege or like his kid, she was just a distraction from achieving his true goals. Mandarin then approachs in it offer that he will kill Lydia to prove this point. The Ford haulluncaton allows him to, Lydia eventually frees herself with her free left arm and then ends up running as Mandarin chases her with sadistic delight as he has weakened her by preying on her fears of her braces and Ford not caring about her.

Before Lincoln is truly stabbed, Lydia manages to save Lincoln by summoning the gauntlet's telekinetitc powers to stop it. Lincoln is dropped which Lydia saves and then Mandarin grabs her with his claw and hands her to the Ford halluncation and Lincoln saves her by heabutting the monkey. Morag tells Mandarin to use the amulet again and he refuses that it's personal now. The magnets, Ford halluncation and the humanoid gang on the two

Lincoln and Lydia both nod to each other and Lincoln tosses Lydia in the air and Lydia uses the Time Stone to slow down time everything down except Lincoln who runs towards them and jumps on Mandarin's claw and grabs his claw and tosses him at the wall which Lydia turns it back on and then Mandarin just retreats realziing they're not afraid of him

Lydia and Lincoln sigh and sigh until Lydia ends up embracing Lincoln and he reciporates this. Both of them start to blush without the other noticing

Lincoln and Lydia are at the Smokey Joe's All You can eat eating Pizza and they discuss their fears that were in shown to them. Lincoln asks Lydia about her fear of being an unworthy apprentice for Ford, and Lydia states she has her own insecurity of being a worthy apprentice to Ford considering she's not into the weirdness like he is, or a scientist like he is and feels she was an odd choice to pick and their only shared connection was Bill Cipher. Lincoln spectuates that despite that, there was something about her that drew Ford to her to take Lydia as his apprentice in maybe their interests being geeky and dorky similar to the two of them.

Lydia explains that the braces is something she has always being teased and this does make her uncomfortable at the worst of times. She then asks Lincoln about that humanoid of goo with pigtails and what was they supposed to represent. Lincoln confesses it's a girl he realized he has a crush on and he was afraid of being betrayed and/or rejected, which Lydia finds  ridclous on pretenses that he is a caring young boy who shouldn't let that get him down in which the irony is sweet, as Lydia is unaware that Lincoln was talking about her. Lincoln continues that it took shots at his feet and teeth being rabbit like and his orange polo shirt being bland, Lydia rolls her eyes again and states his family are like rabbits in just how big the Loud Family is and just that. Lydia asks does he feel better, and Lincoln asks if Lydia feels okay now that Ford's actions made her wrong fearful of rejection and disappointment from him. Lydia states yes and that in the future, if anyone feels fear or is scared of something that they should talk about it, and Lincoln agrees as the two felt better talking to each other and Lydia toasts to the Double L Duo the two clearly are

Lincoln then tells Lydia that he intends to get Castiel and Crowley to help him discover what's going on in there, as he wants to know what's phsyically wrong with him. Lydia states that it's wise to get both of them to help him. Lincoln asks Lydia if she can help the duo too, and Lydia is unsure as she knows nothing about possession through angels and demons, Lincoln states that her and Lincoln are basicaly an duo that can accomplish a lot when together and tells Lydia to repeat after him and that they can fix this together which Lydia blushes and smiles that they can do this.

Marcy Wu sits down and asks if she interrupted anything and both of them say no. Marcy tells Lincoln and Lydia that she has been incontact with her Multiversal private detective and he's been investigating Cleo's death and found blood samples. Lincoln asks Marcy Wu did she tell her P.I, Marcy states that he found it by accident due to drunk team mates and found the blood samples and that he got a clear up crew to erase the whole thing from happening. Lydia states what does it mean, Marcy states that the body might have being stolen.

Chapter 8

Lydia observes Lincoln asking Castiel and Crowley for help regarding his mind and she states herself that it's time to figure out where all of this is coming from. Lydia packs some stuff in her  bag before they take off.

Lydia asks Lincoln how it went and Crowley was recultant to help as he wanted to go grave digging, but Lincoln promised Crowley something, Lydia asks if he gave his soul to him. Lincoln says he didn't but Lincoln does have to something mudane for Crowley

Lydia tells him she packed a overnight bag for them, and that he will like what she packed. Lincoln doesn't deny this as Lydia knows him well and decides to tell Ford the plan

Lincoln tells Ford that they're not going with him to Mewni as Lincoln has agreed to have Castiel and Crowley both go through his subconciousness to find the source of his powers.  Lydia tells Ford she's coming along too to help the three. Ford asks why both Lydia and Lincoln are investigating this and Lydia states she wants to know the truth herself for both of their sake

Ford concedes to this and asks Castiel and Crowley to keep an vilgant eye on Lydia, Lydia states she can take of herself and doesn't need their eyes. Ford tells Lydia, he cares about her and doesn't want to see her hurt because of negliegence angels and demons. Crowley and Castiel both don't look amused by Ford and say they'll do better than him being in agreement for once. Though he does trust Lincoln on it

Lydia is wished good luck by Ronnie Anne with this mission.

Up in a winter cabin, Castiel is hiking/leading Lydia, Lincoln and Crowley to the cabin and it's night time. Castiel tells the three that they're heading here to make sure what they do does not bring any attention what so ever.

Lydia asks what attention and Castiel goes off about how strong angels and demons are and if they need a jump on Toffee, they have to think like how he has been so successful

Lydia takes off her winter jacket as does the others and she asks what's next. Crowley is more interested in just eating and drinking before getting to business, which Lydia and Lincoln both agree to.

After eating some snacks and drinks. Crowley as well as Lydia and Lincoln are in their pyjamas ready to go to bed when Castiel decides this will be the time. Crowley tells Lincoln he owns him that bottle of 30 year old alchol in his parents's cellar. Lydia asks Lincoln why would Crowley want that and Crowley states he's a man of wealth and taste. Lincoln adds and someone who likes Wicked.  Castiel places both of them in bed and puts them to asleep where they head rest on each other as a result. As Cas and Crowley enter Lincoln's mind

Lydia finds herself in Lincoln's mind and Castiel as well as Crowley show up and she asks how is she even in there. Castiel explains to Lydia that Crowley worked something to have her be able to do and Crowley calls something something Inception. Lydia and Cas don't seem impressed by this and Crowley asks if they have a better word.

Lincoln answers with yes and this suprises Lydia asking how can Lincoln appear when it's his mind. Castiel explains that the dream verison of Lincoln can do that and that's why he is here to lead them

Lincoln leads Lydia, Castiel and Crowley around the brain as they must find the part of the brain will this will be. Lydia comments on how she has seen brains in science, but never actually seeing a brain herself. Crowley adds that he doesn't know his own due to him weating someone else's suit. Lydia states it's a good suit regardless. Castiel explains that him and Crowley both can possess other people and take their host body, in the case of demons  they don't remember sometime who they were before they were demons

Lydia states she has so much to learn about demons and angels, Crowley states she'll learn soon enough

Lincoln arrives at the center and the 4 step off and they see in the consicene of Lincoln of all things Jin Kazama

Lydia questions if it's Jin and JIn confirms it is him to a confused Lydia, Where she asks how and why is in he in Lincoln's mind.  Jin tells Lydia, Lincoln and Crowley as Castiel decides to invesitgate further that his ashes went into Lincoln as he was killed and he found himself inside the body of a kid like Linc. Jin states that he decided to put his physical abilites into Lincoln to make sure he could surive and be able to defend for himself, He decided not to give Lincoln any of his actual powers or devil gene powers because he doesn't want to ruin the kid's life. Lydia asks how they activate themselves and finds out they're a flight or fight situation

Lincoln states that explains it as best as the multiverse can, Lydia asks about  Jin's soul as she knows it's not really him. She finds out that his soul hasn't passed on and only with Bill's defeat can it truly do so. Lydia asks Jin how he knows this, Jin states that he  only found himself, he then mentions the stones and the Gauntlets which he believes Lydia was chosen to wield them as a heroine. Lydia mocks the idea of a chosen one and states that she just found them on Mako Island, Jin states that she choose them  and that the stones and Gauntlets were passed on from generation to generation, person to person.

They contained limitless or just about limitless power and that many people wielded them and either were killed by the power itself or became corrupted by the power and were brought down as a result. he states the power they have is not a toy and they have dire consequences in the world. The person that finds it is the only one that can wield unless they trust the power and lend it to someone who they have a two way close connection although the power is limited. Lydia realizes that's why Lincoln was able to use some of it and Jin confirms it.

Lydia also learns from Jin that the reason she hasn't felt any of these urges, is her disclipine and her studying the stones and the powers they wield as barely anyone who had the stones and Gauntlets in their possession studied their power and praticed the use of it.

Castiel returns to the other 3 as Bill Cipher is on their coats and Bill goes after the 4 and torments them with his power though they do fight back and Crowley sticks his neck for the three and saves them from Bill Cipher. Lydia blindsides Bill Cipher by using the Powerstone in his eye before they leave with Crowley's help and they wake up

Lydia, Crowley, Castiel and Lincoln find out Weirdmagedon is in effect as Ford is trying to call them on this and that Morag barricaded them in the cabin with anti- angel and demon tools. Suddently the door is broken for Lydia and Lincoln through some powerful water shots and seals on Castiel and Crowley.

Lydia breaks the two out with another stone and fixes the damage. Castiel teleports them back to Ford. Lydia is greeted by Anne, Luz, Sid, Ronnie Anne, Amanda and Ford. Sid and Amanda tells Lydia and Lincoln of Cleo's turn to the dark side while Lydia explains to the others about the truth of the stones and Lincoln's powers. Lydia is saddened to learn and upset about learning of Cleopatra's rebirth and that she turned on them, Sid explains that Lydia is safe from Cleo as is Lincoln.

Ford, Lydia and Lincoln meet together and decide they need to find a way to stop them now. With the zodiacs, a severed finger of Toffee and a Butterfly Wand.

Chapter 9

As Weirdmagedon occurs before Lydia's eyes, She remiscneds of the time Thawne created Doomworld and thinks back to when Bill Cipher was released and how she was being prepared for him due to Ford. Lydia sighs as she never thought Bill would return and cause an accolpayse again. Lydia swears not to let Toffee and Bill Cipher issue her an sadistic choice again.

Before she can say anything more, Anne and Luz get Lydia as they see Lalo and The Gang Green Gang and question them on their intents. To her suprise The Gang Green Gang remember her mercy to them as they were dying and that they decided to side with Lydia for sticking her neck out for them while Toffee would have left them dead and she learns Lalo really has been against Toffee for a while.Ace explains that Toffee is setting up a false flag opeartion to make himself the hero as a way to conquer the multiverse which Lalo, Lydia, Lincoln and Ford all think is insane

Lydia is handed vaccines for weirdmagedon alongside Ford from Marcy Wu and General Yuman who were working on them in secret. Having taking her, Lincoln feels his sisters have being taken from him and Lydia tries to tell him that ain't the case as she knows his family and that wouldn't. One taunting message later from Morag towards Lincoln and unsubtly threatening Lydia and the Salmanca as well, Lincoln decides to stop Morag alongside Lalo, Her and The Gang Green Gang

Talking with Ford, Ronnie Anne and Sid on the matter, Lydia heads to Royal Woods with Ford's permission and with the villains as Ronnie Anne tracks them and Sid offers to take reponsibilty if anything goes wrong. Heading to Royal Woods, Lydia reassures Linc that they're fine as she's not hearing anything from the house or seeing anything petrified. But that the laser Morag is using might leave him without a home.

Lalo and Ace put a plan in place to get into the laser room under false surrender. After the others reval themselves and Morag summons a dragon to kill the crew, Lydia tells Ace she has found a way to give them their powers back but not in a way of certain death. The Gang is against this despite the power as Toffee nearly had them killed, Lydia reassures them it will be temporary as she did some chemcial work on them with Marcy, Lincoln and Sid.

Lalo, Lydia and Lincoln work to disable the laser with simple work on Lydia and Lalo's part as Lincoln decides to just smash up the laser with a baseball bat.  Lydia asks how Lalo knows how to do this and Lalo explains you don't spend life as a criminal and sleep so little without knowing a thing about lasers. Morag finally notices and tries to stab the three but she is stopped by Lalo shooting her and Ace grabbing Morag. Lalo denounces Morag for being a traitor and prepares to kill her for betraying him and The Gang Green Gang.

Lincoln and Lydia stop them and state they're not killers and this isn't the answer and that Lydia admits she's sorry for them being betrayed but Morag's dying will clue in Toffee and that can't be done. Lalo and Ace begrudgely agree and Lalo just calls her to be arrested in turn. The Gang and Lalo warn the two of their mercy as they will pay for it a certain point, and Lalo tells them don't do this with Toffee as he desevres no mercy or forgiveness.

Lalo reassures the two that it's a thought to consider not him telling the kids to do it and to consort one another as Lalo recongizes the three of them are all sane people and that an act like killing is something that requires lucid thought.

Lincoln ponders these words to Lydia as they return and Lydia states Lalo has an point in the lucid thought aspect. They discuss how Lydia basically defeated and killed Cipher before and how she did think that out and how Lydia did  so out of self defense. Lydia does admit that she nearly killed Morag herself earlier and that she had to be reassured and she wasn't thinking at that point which Lincoln states is true and that they should discuss this.

Lincoln confesses to Lydia that if he did so, then he would ignore what Angus showed  him by sparing Morag's life and despite having not have seen Angus, he still remembers him fondly , he explains that he knows Angus from Scotland which is how he knows Morag.

Lydia then tells Lincoln of her dreams as she keep seeing Doomworld and Weirdmagedon for many nights when asleep, she sees how her encounters when with Bill Cipher, Thawne and Toffee and that she feels she relives the events in her head and how she wants to stop Bill and Toffee for good. Lincoln asks if that is why she has insomnia, and she doesn't deny or confirm it.

As soon as Lydia and Lincoln return back to Ford and tell him that they managed to succeed in driving off Morag and they had her arrested but not killed. Lydia explains also that Lalo told them that they have to kill them and that sparing them might be the moral move but not the pragmatic move. Ford states Lydia is correct that murder isn't the way but Lalo isn't wrong and with Toffee and Bill it is the only way as well as others, and he mentions NOS-4A2 is among them and takes the two to go after Toffee's right hand man.

Ford, Lydia and Lincoln corner NOS-4A2 all out to take him down after the energy vampire nearly killed all 3 of them at certain points. N0S-4A2 decides to try and kill them immediately and summons Wire Wolves to hunt and kill them while trapping them. Ford, Lydia and Lincoln try to figure out the weakness of the Wire Wolves and notes their agility,

NOS-4A2 orders them to use the wires to catch them which they do and ensare the three with NOS-4A2 preparing to dust them. Lydia uses the Gauntlet to summon telekinesis to get them off them and toss them to the ground. Lincoln then rams them with a shoulder tackle sending them to the ground.

Ford then uses his destablizer and does succeed this time in getting the wirewolves. NOS-4A2 not dettered grabs both Ford and Lincoln and forces Lydia to make a choice on who to safe as he slams both of them to the ground, like what he did to Ford. Lydia remembering NOS-4A2's torment of herself decides to summon the time stone to slow down the vampire and grabs Lincoln and Ford and puts them to the ground, hands Ford a steak and then punches him in the back with the power stone. Time gets reset and NOS-4A2 is devestigated by the hit and Lydia uses her mind stone to hold the vampire in place as Ford and Lincoln stake the robot vampire

Ford, Lydia and Lincoln bring Anne, Luz and Cricket in to going after the duo and he also explains that they need a way to separate Bill and Toffee as the zodiacs can't work as long as they are merged. Lydia swears that she won't be the same message against Toffee and Bill Cipher like she did in Doomworld.

Chapter 10 (Final Chapter)

Lydia, Lincoln, Ford, Luz, Anne and Cricket all nativage through  the pyramid wondering where Toffee Cipher is and how they're going to stop him. She is told by Ford that the idea is to weaken the fuse and then use the zodiacs power to weaken Bill, Lydia states that will be eaiser said than done

Lydia ponders whether to use the Gauntelet's at full power as they might be needed but is aware of her limitations so she decides to use between 25% and 50% against them. Anne questions that a case like that needs more power.

Toffee Cipher encounters the six of them and he states dryly that they made it.  With Ford says of course they did and that they're all alone and have no one to protect them. Toffee Cipher states he doesn't need anyone and that he can take on anything they dish

Lydia not impressed states that She stopped Toffee and Bill  before and she can do it again,  She is mocked by Bill in regards to that the fact that she "beat" them  and that they let her win. Ford and Lincoln both defend this and say that was being killed part of the plan and Anne decides to strike and the others follow suit.

Toffee Cipher noticably proves they can take on anything, as everything the six throw at him doesn't faze him. Lydia uses her gauntets to basically attempt to hurt Toffee, and at best gets stalemates with Toffee and Bill's powers as they are able to counteract the stones influence power. Lydia aware of that the powers are holding her back but is still uncertain of going further than 50%. Toffee Cipher then bascially grabs her with his tail and tries to strangle Lydia by her neck trying to suffocate her, Lydia bites his tail and spits it out disgusted with the taste.

Toffee Cipher then summons all 6 of the stones powers at once on Lydia, crushing her under the gravity, slowing her down, mind raping her mind to make her go nuts to attack the others to see them as monsters, and distorting reality in front of her, Ford and Cricket both manage to stop this in order to stop Lydia going crazy. Lydia repels them with her attempt on the time stone

Toffee Cipher is somewhat slowed and hit but recovers fast and then uses the full scope of his power to basically shack all 6 of them and then blows all of them up.

Lydia, Ford, Lincoln, Anne, Luz and Cricket all get shackled by Toffee Cipher summoning shackles and creating a triangular prison traps the six each in 3 separate ones with the intent to kill them all but the two have to leave because they sense something else.

Being chained with Lincoln, Lydia tries to figure how to stop something that even half of the gauntlets power can't beat. She suspects she may need to go full power as it's the only power that equals Toffee Cipher's own power but Lydia lacks the fighters edge to do so, as Lincoln, Anne and Ford agree to in her character

Thinking further, she realizes one thing that a reason Toffee and Bill were able to shake them off is the insync combination of Toffee's  sharp mind while Bill's many powers balance the fusion and they work well enough to overpower and outsmart the six. Lincoln ponders that's the problem, and they have no way to insync themselves and that the only possible way of damaging the two is the Infinity Gauntlets at full power. Anne and Luz both state they work together well, The other 4 agree but state that's not the point. Lydia unlike the others think and then she comes up with an idea

Lydia tells Lincoln that's he on to something and there might be a way to do just that, Lincoln questions what she means. Lydia states that Lincoln was able to use the soul stone a bit earlier and that could be the answer where Lydia shares her gauntlet power with Lincoln

Lincoln questions Lydia on this as Lydia knows how to use the Gauntlet's power and that she may be silly to think they can fight Toffee Cipher alone. Lydia quickingly answers that they're intending to stall the two and ultimately weaken them  and that if she can learn their use as a comic book geek, Lincoln can too and his Kazama fused powers could work too. Lincoln states they are dangerous to an extent and has no intent to harm them, Lydia states she has seen all of the powers first hand and knows what she's getting into. When Lincoln is questioning the ability to do this, Lydia repeats the word says to Lincoln said to Lydia herself when she states they are a team/duo and accomplish a lot when they work together and tells Lincoln to repeat after her in that they can do this together and Lincoln states with the same awkardness they can as Lydia did herself.

As Toffee Cipher shows up with the intent to kill all six them in turn now they are not distracted and taunts Ford about he'll just going to start killing the others and asks Ford who should they kill. Toffee Cipher decides to settle on Lydia to get under Ford as Bill requests this, Lydia then sprays Toffee Cipher in the eye with mace causing Toffee Cipher to reel as he states does Lydia know how it feels to get one's eyes sprayed as this is Bill coming out.

Lydia breaks her own prison with 75% of the gauntlet's power and uses the power stone to shatter Lydia's cell with Lincoln and  they escape to Ford, Anne, Luz and Cricket's suprise. Lydia and Lincoln tell the others to save themselves as they'll handle Toffee Cipher to Ford's shock that shouldn't

Lincoln states that they all beat Toffee and Bill separately and can do it again, They exchange a fist bump and Lydia tosses one of her gauntlets to Lincoln and they run with Lincoln taunting Toffee Cipher which makes furious and Toffee Cipher strangles Ford telling they'll wait here

Toffee Cipher goes Red and shows more monster like saying they have some kids they need to turn into corpses and that Ford will learn why having kids was a mistake.

As Lydia and Lincoln run from Toffee Cipher and nativagte through the pyramid as Toffee Cipher states when they get these geeks, They will rip their molecules and atoms bit by bit as the two escape consistency and use the Gauntlets to slow down the two as they escape both of them

Lydia does recongize it's Bill showing the hate due to Toffee's more composed behavior and Lincoln notes that their attempts to hurt them work this time and spectualtes why when Lydia had both of them on and Lydia states she's using 1 now like Lincoln

Toffee Cipher traps the two and tries to slow the two down which is counted by Lydia directing Lincoln how to use the time stone to counter this. Toffee Cipher distory reality on them Lydia tells Lincoln to use the reality stone and he tells her he knows and the two undo the attempt. Toffee Cipher roasted Lydia with lasers and Lincoln jumps to save Lydia and stops Toffee Cipher from dropping part of the pyramid on Lydia

Lincolin tosses her up to sock Toffee Cipher's face and then she uses the space zone to teleport away from the reatialation

Lincoln shoulder tackles Toffee and then uses the mind stone to subdue Toffee Cipher and Lydia uses the teleknesis to toss Toffee Cipher to the floor and sends him in multiple directions and then Toffee Cipher tries to impale Lincoln but Lydia snaps him away with the space stone.

Lydia and Lincoln both recongize they're on equal terms with them so they need to separate them so Lincoln and Lydia think what to do and Lincoln has an idea, combine the gauntlets which Lydia isn't sure on, but Lincoln convinces her if they can use the guantlets together it can allow Ford to stop them

Lydia and Lincoln both hold the gauntlets together and snaps their fingers and a massive expolsion occurs as a result. Both of them are tired in turn, but Toffee and Bill CIpher have been separated so the plan to sepearte them and They decide to kill the two but they are saved by Ford, Luz, Anne and Cricket. Lydia, Lincoln and Ford decide to purse Bill to finish the job as the others go after Toffee.

Lydia, Lincoln and Ford track down Bill Cipher and Bill makes his final stand against the trio and that Bill admits he understimated the two especially street cone who he regarded as Lydia's boy toy with Lydia states that he is not her boy toy as much as the inverse is true. Lydia decides to just get rid of Bill Cipher immediatly as she uses the gauntlet on Bill

She is still a bit tired despite using it and Bill Cipher grabs her with the intent to kill her for spraying his eye and to make Ford pay. Lincoln saves Lydia with a smack to Bill and Bill grabs the two intending to just kill them again using his powers to catch them and tell Ford that time's up and that he's going to kill one of them out of sadism. Before Bill decides to kill Lydia, Ford takes his shot and destablizes Bill Cipher and then Lydia picks up the gauntlets, power ups them and basically shreds Bill out of exitence and Bill tries to take Lincoln with him out of spite towards Lydia.

Lydia and Ford both decide to save Lincoln despite the circumstancese and Sid who sees the two as the other ones leave, steps up and helps Ford and Lydia try to save Lincoln. The three of them find Lincoln who is uncosnciousness but alive and get him out of the pyramid as it's exploding.

It's revealed in Time Baby's future showage to Lincoln, Lydia managed to snag Lincoln as her boyfriend some point between the five years, is now bethothed to Lincoln and a sorcereess /archdukeness as well thanks to Luz's training regarding the stones. Lydia's appearance is leaner,taller, has lost her braces and her hair is short around to her ears.

As  everyone is checking up on Lincoln as he comes back to conscioussness, Lydia sees Cleopatra as they exchange some discussion about Toffee and BIll's defeat and where to go from here regarding everything as Cleo is taken off. Lydia recieves a phone call from Lincoln's mother and asks if this was a wrong dial, and Lydia finds out Mrs.Loud did mean to call Lydia asking her what's her welcome gift would like to be. Lydia asks how Lincoln's mom knows of her parents moving and learns she has moved to Royal Woods and is Lincoln's new next door neighbor and states her answer with a smile on her face.

As Lincoln wakes up and Lydia approaches Lincoln, they share a hug with each other as Lincoln relaxes into it as she's glad that Lincoln is alive.

That night, Lydia hangs at the Loud House into Lincoln's room after having Lincoln over at her house and meeting her parents.  They make a make shift tent and Lydia shows Lincoln her secret  adventure book that she is passionate about and that she wants to add to with Lincoln and the rest of her friends as they go around the multiverse. Lydia asks Lincoln to help put her this one together for them and to make her a promise and cross his heart that Lincoln will help Lydia with her dream.

To Live and/or Die in Loch Loud

Lydia returns once again as the central protagonist where between Return of the Weirdmagedon Cult and To Live/And or Die in Loch Loud she decided to finally answer the call to heroics and don a super heroine alias known as "Lydil Red" using her new residence in Royal Woods as a perfect cover working with her friends who approve of this ideal. One day, Lincoln shows Lydia a map he found about a fantasy land that would look nice to go on a little sight seeing and for some memories for them and after discussing this, Lydia agrees and they decide to sneak out later that night to find this land. Unfortunately for her, the mutual archfoe of both of them returns to want revenge on them.

Prologue

Lydia took up the mantle of a superheroine known as Lydil Red after the series and she recalls the time it took to get where she was. After refusing the call 3 times or being forced into it, she found opposition from some, support from some and neutral from others.

Observing Criminals with Crowley, being trained by Cricket's best friend Remy's butler, getting clothing and gear from Marcy Wu, Ronnie Anne And Sid and recruiting Lincoln to be her partner after hearing him out and confiding in him about her doubts of being in Ford's Shadow and wanting to be her own heroine

Lydia did a lot of good as Lydil Red in patrolling the streets and fighting criminals which earned her a mixed reputation due to age and that her parents should stop her from this. Lydia's parents didn't know their daughter was actually a super heroine but did encourage her creativity and sincerely think she should make it a comic book series as they know their daughter is a comic book super hero lover.

She is summoned to a conference and is given questions where Sid, Anne and Luz are present and it goes well until she is asked about Lincoln and she freezes up and is questioned about being the citizen's girlfriend even showing proof of her closeness to Lincoln in a way that can't be constituted being just friends. Lydia denies it but does state how much he helped her.

At 2am, Raticus gives her a message that Lincoln wants to meet in the park to discuss something and she agrees to it before going to sleep.

Meeting Lincoln at the park while playing a Yogi Bear joke on him, they settle down for a picnic as they discuss what Lincoln found on his night off.

Lincoln found something he wants to explore in Loch Loud and wants her to come with him on a river boat at midnight and that he wants to reward her for giving him a opportunity to do detective work. Working with the Man with the Plan, they make a plan, though not without some awardness when serving desert when they touch hands briefly causing some nervousness from Lydia who awkwardly chuckles. She also learns that Lincoln is pen palling when a multiversal resident in Hilda.

Later that night, they meet up and manage to sneak on the river boat and decide to make camp as they wait for it to take off, which Lincoln seems exciting about finding ghosts and Lydia encourages him to try to ghost bust to make him happy.

Chapter 1

That next day on the Riverboat Queen, that evening Lydia and Lincoln are both wondering when the riverboat will get to Loch Loud. As it has taken a whole day since the last night. Lydia asks Lincoln if the map is right and Lincoln confirms it is and it's just the boat goes quite slow. The two think of what they found on their brief stops and Lincoln reveals he brought a baseball bat, a scooter, a bike, a water gun. a yo-yo, a spintop and some other stuff and Lydia questions where they came from and Lincoln mentions that he brought them for travel, boredom, etc as well as they were there when he and Lucy were invited to that Nick All Star Brawl

Lydia asks if she can see them and Lincoln gives them to her and she uses the infinity gauntlet to make them combat viable which Lincoln asks Lydia why she did that when he's not in Nick All Star Brawl anymore and she states he'll never know when he needs them. Lincoln tells her that he has a feeling that the Riverboat Queen is only busy on the day and pretty dead at night and suspects that there are ghosts on the ship and Lydia asks his theory and Lincoln states something has been navtigating them in the right direction. Lydia gets out Lincoln's Arggh For Real costume and tells him to let's start busting some ghosts referring him to as the Egon of Arggh.

Lincoln dressed in his costume and Lydia holding A Ghostbuster Trap, and a P.K.E Meter in her hands go through the hallways and notice how quiet they are as Lincoln is equipied with the Proton Pack as they decide to head to the main hall. Lincoln asks Lydia is she detecting anything and Lydia states the rooms are empty but she is sensing something from the main hall and they should enter but not too loudly.

Lincoln gets the Photon Pack and asks Lydia to phase them in with the Mind Stone which she nods and teleports them in. Lydia and Lincoln both see plenty of ghosts and Lincoln tells Lydia that he was right and there are ghosts. Lydia tosses a trap to Lincoln, telling him to just catch one ghost and she decides to hum the GHost busters theme as Lincoln gets the proton pack ready to stun one of them and He sets a trap off to catch it. This gets some ghosts attention and they try to scare the two but both are undetered and they still catch a ghost where they high five their sucession.

Lydia is aplogotic to the ghosts as is Lincoln and the ghosts just knock both of them out and place them where the kids were residing since they took off.

Lincoln realizes the ghosts aren't hostile as they would have scared them and they havn't revealed they snuck on the ship. Lydia asks Lincoln why did he want to go to Loch Loud for real? as she thinks they're going for a bigger reason. Lincoln reveals he wanted to find more about his  heritage and wanted Lydia to come with him so he can have his partner on his side and that he wanted to have her relax after all she's done. Lydia asks Lincoln her own question that if he thinks who she really is  Is she the mask that hides her face or the one is her face. Lincoln doesn't know how to answer this.

The Next day, Lydia nudges Lincoln to wake up as they have arrived in Loch Loud and Lincoln wakes up with a pen in his mouth. Lydia asks was he pen palling to his multiversal pen pal and Lincoln confirms this as he wanted to tell Hilda about his and Lydia's ghost busting night. Lincoln gets off the boat and takes his bags with Lydia and the two see some wanted signs.

To their shock the two of them are on the wanted sign and are left to ponder this. Lincoln asks if Lydia can imagine his Ace Savry Costume and Lydia snaps her fingers and it shows up on Lincoln's hands. Lincoln puts on the costume and tells Lydia to put her costume on so they can get it to the bottom of this.

Back in Loch Loud, Lincoln disguised in his Ace Savry costume is investigating the chaos around Loch Loud with Lydia in her own Lydil Red Costume. Lincoln questions why the people are after them as he hasn't been in Loch Loud for a while and Lydia hasn't been there period and yet the citizens are after both of them. Lydia questions how people havn't recongized them in their costumes herself and Lincoln agrees with that assessment.

Lincoln and Lydia both see monsters going after citizens and Lincoln decides to save them despite the wanted sign on his head and Lydia agrees and they fight off monsters thank to Lincoln using his stuff and Lydia using her training and this is when Separtians show up on them and Lydia asking Lincoln don't they look a bit familar and Lincoln says they're lizards and what's so familar. Lydia states that they have some regenerative factors to them like Toffee and Lydia decides to just use the gauntlet to wipe them out when they're dogpilled by the Separtians who take the stones from her. Lincoln shoos them off with a dirty diaper and Lydia smashes them by swinging one them with a tail.

Lydia notes that the stones are not in her gauntler and this is when Lincoln over hears a voice and recongizes it's Morag. Morag reveals herself to Lincoln and Lydia and uses her magic powers in part to the sorcerer stone being in her to keep in them place. Morag goes on a monologue about when she was arrested by them and that Salamanca, she has been planning how she is going to take revenge on them and how to escape.

Lincoln whispers to Lydia about here they go with the villain monologue. Morag throws gravel at Lincoln's face and tells him to cease. Morag goes on that She eventually found an ally who was like Toffee who she was trying to avenge and with his help, she escaped and found a way to escute her vegenance for being defeated and to fix the life the two of them ruined

Lydia snarks that Morag ruined her own life by going after the Louds and then Lydia just because Morag tortured Lincoln. Morag asks Ratiscore to shut up Lydia and states that she has to do some thinking and realized she needed ways around Lydia's little toy and found her way. Lydia and Lincoln both have enough and call her a coward which Morag orders Ratiscore to cut them apart and with the chainsaw Ratiscore is ready to saw them.

However Ratiscore is stopped by being stunned by a magic smoke that was thrown to the ground to blind Ratiscore's attempt and a hooded figure grabs both of the kids to safety and gets away as the smoke clears. Morag isn't too dettered as she has turned Loch Loud against Lincoln and he can't keep running even if the former duke sides with Lincoln.  

It turns out the hooded figure brought the two to safety and out of Morag or Ratiscore's reach. Lincoln is confused as it is Lydes who saved them from Morag and that Separtian. Lydia is just grateful of being alive and she asked the hooded figure who it is and why were they saved them. Lincoln recongizes the figure after hearing "Blow my bagpipes is that you Lincoln?"

It's revealed that the figure was none other than Angus, The groundskeeper of Loch Loud and who Lincoln passed on the duke position to. Lydia asks Lincoln if this the Angus he was talking to and Lincoln confirms this. Angus asks Lincoln what is he doing here back in Loch Loud, Lincoln explains he wanted to go a little trip back to Loch Loud to treat his best friend a fun time.  Angus tells Lincoln they need to get to safety as Morag is out for Lincoln and his little friend.

Lincoln introduces Lydia to Angus as his best friend and partner. Angus asks if Lydia is Lincoln's girlfriend which both of them deny saying they're just what Lincoln said. Angus tells them about his time as duke and how much he wanted to see Lincoln again seeing him like a nephew to himself. Lincoln recorpiates this feeling and admits he wanted to see Angus again when he came. Angus then tells Lincoln about the invasion of Morag and her monster army namely the Separtians who has intentions to take the throne from Angus to rule Loch Loud again and that she had a plan to put both Lincoln and this red haired girl on a pike.

Lydia ponders about the Separtians and the lack of them when Toffee was around and some research on them, she realizes that they are also wanting revenge for Toffee's death similar to Morag. Angus asks Lydia what she knows about Morag and Lydia calls her a Witch with a captial B who really hates Lincoln and make her a target by proxmity and that she worked with Toffee and his henchmen who they stopped.  Lydia having looking further calls Separtians the most petty monsters she knows. Lincoln goes on to address that maybe Angus is the only other person who can help with the real reason he's here, Angus asks about it and Lincoln tells him he wants to find more about his ancestors and Lydia is already aware of this as he told her and she agreed to help him.

Angus tells Lincoln and Lydia that Morag stole the Sorecer's Stone and is using as a power source to get her deepest desires and to rule Loch Loud unopposed. He got that from her when she usurped the groundskeeper. Lydia states that was the Separtians stole the Stones from the Infinity Gauntlets to keep her from being a threat to Morag or to make her feel weak. She asks Lincoln does he want to this quest that has been opened for them, Lincoln asks does she feel comfortable with someone else forcing her hand as opposed to Lydia choosing to accept the call. Lydia retorts she wants to accept the call this time, when asked on this. Lydia tells Lincoln that with all the times she has been forced into the call and her recent actions, this is something she wants to do and the others can help them with this. Lincoln unsure on this as while he would like his friends to help out, he feels Lydia and himself should deal with Morag, Ratiscore and the monsters themselves as they're the ones with beef in regards to Morag.

Lydia tells him that they may need the help with whatever the witch is throwing at them, when they recover the six stones. Then both of them will go after Morag together and Lydia states that won't stop them from finding out his heritage and just them can do it if Lincoln wants. Lincoln asks would she be fine with this and Lydia states of course it's good, and that if Lincoln wants to find out about his ancestors, she will stand by him and Lincoln reassures Lydia as for the stones he'll do what he can to get the Gauntets filled with their 6 stones.

Lydia hands the numbers for Luz and Anne to Angus to call them in that they need their help. Angus agreees and sets out and tells Lincoln and Lydia to take things at their own pace which leaves Lincoln understandably confused as is Lydia.

Lincoln and Lydia are both busy doing different things. Lincoln is writing to his pen pal about his reunion with his friend who he passsed the duke position and his trip to Loch Loud he decided to take. Lydia is reading a newspaper with Who is Lydil Red and reads that the publisher considers her a Criminal, A Vigilante. A Public Menace!" and that he' s asking for a photo of her with the intent if she doesn't want to be famous, she'll be made infamous. Lincoln makes a joke that Lydia has found herself her own Jameson. Lydia chuckles as she understood the reference that was made. The two hear Ford, Anne and Luz's voices and Ford asks Lydia what is she even doing here before stopping himself to realize Lydia wasn't aware of Morag or Ratiscore so he can't continue scolding her for making him worry.Cricket asks if Lydia was still able to defend herself which she confirms once again thanking him for getting touch with Remy's butler.  

Lydia, Lincoln,Raticus, Luz, Anne, Cricket, Sid, and Molly are all working on a way to get the infinity stones back from Morag and how to get the sorcerer's stone out of her. Lydia explains there are six stones hooked to the gauntlet, what she learned from Jin that the stones and the Gauntlets  are wielded by champions and passed down generation to generation, for someone to wield, she found it on Mako Island with all 6 stones and decided to wield their powers and study them and by accepting that, she became the stones's champion.

Lydia states that she is really careful with that one (Soul Stone)  in particular before finishing off with the final stone The Mind Stone  which is Powered by the user's mastery of soul. Near-limitless psionic/psychic abilities including empathy, telepathy, and telekinesis.She explains the gauntlets are also customized to be able to used only by the champion the stones choose, Lydia states because she choose the stones, she became an exception and Lincoln was able to use the stones twice.

Molly is intriggued and asks Lydia why not just use the stones to improve everything. Lydia states again she has no control over the larger things despite her remarkable discpline for the most part.

Lincoln asks Lydia should they mention the ghost on the River Boat Queen that they caught and Lydia states after the temple they'll do so.

Lincoln and Lydia both are doing their own investigation of the temples, and Lincoln sees that they were discovered by The 1600s versions of his family. One thing that they did was discover sacred temples during the time His ancestor was the Duke. Lydia curious about the Duke's need asks what his idea for them. Lincoln doesn't really know and Angus who provided Lincoln with this info doesn't either, this is when Molly and Scratch both see them where Lincoln hides his notes from them.

Molly asks Lincoln and Lydia about the Ghost and The River Boat Queen which she mentions she heard. Lydia explains that they boarded the River Boat Queen and went on a day longish ride while hiding and that they ended up going ghost busting.

Scratch doesn't look pleased that he's working with two ghost busters. Lincoln states that he's not one yet, and that him and Lydia were just trying to have fun. Lydia states they actually caught one and yet faced no antagonism as there were a whole party of ghosts there which were operating the ship.

Molly is curious which ghost they caught and Lincoln has no idea. He just caught a ghost, Scratch mentions that he knows a lot of ghosts or at least feels he does. Lincoln offers to show Scratch and Molly the ghost afterwards, Lydia even mentions that they were planning to anyway.

Lydia joins Lincoln and Ford in going through the forest temple and they find the Horseman of War who they dipose of and Lydia gets her first infinity stone back in the gauntler which is the Space Stone.

Lincoln, Lydia, Ford, Anne, Luz, Cricket, Crowley, Marcy Wu, Sid Chang, Molly, Scratch all return back to the trailer and present to Angus and Raticus the Space Stone which Lydia reacquired and that is one stone.

The ground shakes and Morag arrives teleporting it with the Separtians and Morag is aware of what their doing and decides to chase them down. Angus speeds up to get the whole group away from Morag.

Morag just laughs this off and uses her telekientic powers to pin the trailer down and then orders the Separtians to pin each and several one of them and she starts using her magic to stun so then the Separtians can rip them off apart.

Lydia and Sid both manage to wiggle out using Sid's own wand on them and Lydia does manage to use the space stone to exape. The Separtians are stunned by Sid having the Royal Butterfly Wand as Lydia teleports away and is ready to use this on Morag

Morag laughs off that the space stone is 1 stone and no match for her at full power. Marcy calls her bluff and reveals her plan the whole time.

Marcy, Lydia and Sid manage to get the others to safety and Morag decides to just use her powers to attempt to dispose of the speedster. As everyone else escapes with Lydia using the Space stone to allow them all to get away in time.

Luz asks her to open up a portal to discuss to Eda and King about her and Sid's success with the ice spell. Lydia does so and the two go to the Boiling Isles to report their success.

Lydia asks Lincoln did he get a suitably start on his ancestor, and Lincoln states he learned one thing and will continue to learn more about the family and he notices Lydia has the Space Stone and stated how does it feel to have one stone back. Lydia states that it feels nice to have aquired one stone but Morag was right in that she can't take on Morag with one stone and that she will need the rest. Lydia also states that they will have to tell Molly and Scratch about the ghost they found on the River Boat Queen.

Back with the rest of the group, Lydia and Lincoln take out their Proton Pack and they release the ghost that Molly and Scratch questioned them about to Scratch, Molly, Anne, Cricket, Raticus and Crowley. Once they do, Scratch recognizes the ghost as Geoff his "friend" and asks how do two kids catch him.

Geoff tells Scratch that  the Ghost Council was celebrating on the River Boat Queen like they do on most Friday Nights, they take over it at night while all those on board sleep, except of course for Lincoln and Lydia. Scratch asks if the Ghost Council saw Lydia and Lincoln and Geoff confirms they did. Lincoln adds in they just sent them back to where they resides.

Scratch worries what will happen if the Ghost Comission knows he's involved with 2 kids that saw him. Anne and Cricket look rather impressed that Lydia and Linc were able to catch one with Anne coyingly rubbing Lincoln's head and asking what can't the little guy do? Cricket asks Lydia if they can take him ghost busting next time they want to do so.

Scratch warns against it and Geoff doesn't understand why Scartch would, the Ghost Council has nothing against Lydia or Lincoln. Scratch states repeat offending may. Geoff wishes them goodbye for now and he'll see him later. This causes Scratch to sigh as Geoff was annoying him.

Lincoln takes Lydia aside and tells that they ran into the Ghost Council that night and that maybe they know about the heritage of his 1600s descendants or something like that. Lydia states they can't just sneak to the River Boat Queen everytime they want info or something and that Scratch now knows they encountered them. Lincoln advises if Scratch should be let in into their reasons like Angus. Lydia states that he could come in hand if they decide to or Geoff, they should just let how finding some more of the INifinity Stones will work. Lincoln takes out his pen and paper and begins writing about his time in the forest temple

Chapter 2

That Night, Lydia is attempting to sleep and she tosses and turns as she thinking of previous incidents prior to this moment including Thawne's actions, Her failure to save Cleo, The psychological torture at Morag's hands and the incident with Bill Cipher and Toffee and ends up screaming herself awake.  This ends up wakening Lincoln up and asks if she was dreaming about it again and Lydia confirms this and points out that those Insonmia Pills are placing Lydia in a tough spot between having constant flashbacks/nightmares or never sleeping again.  She Decides to do something to get her mind off of it and uses The space Stone to go off somewhere.

2 hours later, Lydia returns with a towel on her head, feeling relaxed and taking the gauze off her fingers as she grabs a drink and this is when Angus frightens her by accident. Angus asks Lydia where was she for 2 hours and Lydia states she was Cricket's friend Remy's manison playing video games with Remy and venting with his bodyguard Vasquez. Angus recongizes there's something up with her and asks.

Lydia tells Angus about the insomia problems she has and the nightmares she has when she does, She refers back to past stuff that happened that she can't get out of her head. Angus tells Lydia that she is suffering PTSD as flashbacks of rellving trama over and over is a symptom as well as bad dreams. Angus asks does she have bad thoughts frequently, which she states she doesn't. Lydia does admit she does get tense or on edge frequently  more than she'll admit and she confesses that she hasn't told anyone which Angus points is a lie and she knows it and states Lincoln does know. Lydia states between her and him no one does and Angus asks her to think and write down the traumatic experinces or events that had this happen  and give the note to him and he'll help talk  about it.

Lydia returns to bed to see Lincoln wearing his underwear reading comics as opposed to be disgusted like most would, she has her own reation. Lydia reminds Lincoln of their talk about it's fine for him to read comics in his underwear on causal Fridays and today is a Tuesday and Lincoln states he just wanted to be comfortable and couldn't help himself, Lydia jokes around saying that she now gets her own casual Satudays if he has his own fridays, . Lincoln chuckles as Lydia asks what's he reading and they continue to read his comic.

The Next Day, Lydia is woken up by Ford who sees both of them in bed still and Ford tells Lincoln to put on some clothes which he does. Lydia tries to eat while writing down her experiences but does shake up a bit trying to figure out how to pin point her words , with Angus and Lincoln being the only ones who know of this.

Anne notices an angry mob looking for Lincoln and by extent herself to bring them to justice for something that Mysterio conspired up and used his illusion powers to make it look they did. They leave through a secret passage as Angus holds up the mov tellign them, that he has this under control. As they sneak out, Lydia, Anne and Luz notice a shop and go to it and Lydia gets herself equipped with some archery tools, remote control bombs and some other stuff while she is at it and leaves her money for the shopkeeper. Anne asks if Lydia is feeling okay, she equipping herself with things a kid her age shouldn't have or at least too much and Lydia writes it off as preparation.

As the team heads off to Turtle Rock where the Mind Stone is, Lydia remembers what Remy and Vasquez both told her about focus, learning to be more upfront about things and to not burn herself out and she tries to talk to Ford about the stuff Lydia mentioned to Angus. Ford seems to recongize Lydia does have some pain and decides to focus on that asking about her insominia episodes and Lydia tells him she has nightmares of petfricaticon, having her atoms ripped bit by bit and other stuff, Ford is surpsied her vilgantism work isn't the cause of it and tries to move the topic to his worries for Lydia too involved in her work which Lydia states she isn't and that she's just trying to right by him. Ford wonders what she means by right by Stanford.

As Morag unleashes Hydras on The small town of Loch, Lincoln decides to seak the Mind Stone himself, with Lydia stopping him to join him and then Anne, Luz and Molly as they feel that Linc and Lydes shouldn't be the only ones having fun. Lydia tells Molly that it's isn't a game this, it's serious and that her own stint being a superheroine seemed like fun, but it actually was quite a challenge. Molly states she didn't treat like it was a game and that Luz talked her into coming along as Anne and Luz felt that. Lydia aplogizes to Molly about this, as she did snap accidentaly at the girl. Luz can know tell that is something wrong with her friend and tells Anne she was right to feel something was up with her.

Lincoln, Lydia, Luz, Anne and Molly enter the temple and Luz uses her magic to make a platform for the 5 to ride to get started and Luz continues to use her magic to keep this up until reaching a room that needs to be lighten up. Luz hands 4 fire torches to Lincoln, Lydia, Molly and Anne who proceed to go around the room and light up the room to cause a door as they run off to the next room

Some chomps are in the next room come after the crew and Lincoln leads the girls to avoid them and then uses his splasher to hit a switch to allow them to keep moving and then he hits it again to find another key for them to continue.

Going through more tunnels they eventually find more enemies but the bouncing enemy takes a higher piroirty as that's the creature with another key whihc Luz and Anne both catch and kill .

In Another big tunnel, Molly with Lydia and Lincoln find another chest and it's the Big Key which they decide to keep for the Hydra. The five continue to travel through the tunnels even using bombs against the walls

Using a Hookshot the crew finds a large treasure chest containing a shield that Lincoln and Luz spectualtes that they can use it in case.  Stepping back into a tunnel, Lydia and Anne blow up pathways and with Lincoln's soaker they find another small key to go through another locked door.

Molly uses the big key to open the door to see the hydra Trinexx

Lydia is analytical on this as she sees the mind stone and noting that the stone is in the tail thinks about using the Space Stone though is disuayed by Lincoln to avoide the smaller heads with one shooting fire and another ice. Some of the floor gets frozen by the ice which makes the floor slippy

The large head extends it's neck to attack the 5 which it does as they just met it and this is when Lincoln notices the wag on the tail as does Luz who decides they must pain attention

Luz uses a fire glypih to hi the blue head to stun it which allows Lydia, Lincoln and Anne to basically shoot arrows, smack away with a baseball bat, slash with a sword respectively. They keep doing this until it's defeated. Luz and Molly notice the read head is now going at them and Lydia equips some of Luz's ice glyiph to stun it and allow Anne and Lincoln to do the same thing they did to the blue one.

The hydra breaks out of it's body and begins moving in a pattern as part of its body flashing and they all move to avoid the attack and use the opporunity to get a chance at it's body with Anne slashing it, Lincoln does the same with VR On, Lydia uses the space stone to cause a gravity pull and Luz uses plant magic to hurt it and ultmately defeat it.

Lydia sees the MInd Stone and she grabs it and places in her gauntlet while whipping out her phone as Lincoln sees another mural of the Louds of the 1600s managing to both locate the Loch Ness Monster and actually keep the Loch Ness Monster as a pet to the 1600s family. Lincoln wonders if this was possible then where is Nessie

Molly reveals that she found Nessie and it recongizes Lincoln as a loud and affectionaly licks Lincoln as Luz and Anne can both understand it wants to get Lincoln out of the temple with his friends which Lincoln gets Lydia, Molly, Luz and Anne on Nessie as they escape the temple.

After acquiring the Mind Stone and being brought back by the Loch Nessie Monster, Lincoln and Lydia tell Ford about their finding of the stone and the monster. Crowley then reveals to Lincoln, Lydia, Ford and Angus that he's been working on a counter plan to defeat Morag and that it's risky and may make them distrust him but he must do what is neccesary.

Ford seems pleased with Lydia and him for showing they can take of themselves, as they starting to show some independce but he does suggest that Lydia keeps a level head about things and tells Lydia that he's aware of something is bothering her and wants to know what it is as did freeze up quite a few times in Turtle Rock as Luz and Anne told Ford. Lydia mentions she did tell him and Ford points out she did but he feels there's more to it than nightmares and that he'll listen.

Lincoln tells Ford she doesn't need to tell him, Lydia interupts Lincoln and points she did mention the nightmares and her attempts to sleep better, though Ford feels something is causing it and Lydia states it's stuff to do with the past. Ford tries to convince Lydia that it's all in the past and that she can't let her past control her, it's the future that really matters and that he doesn't want to see Lydia hurt herself. Lydia asks if it's so simple, how can she convince herself of this and Ford states Time is capable healing of wounds eventually and that she needs to take the necessary steps to do so.

Lincoln sits down with Lydia out in front of the night sky and he feels something as he asks her about the newest things he learned about his heritage asking if he lives up to the Loud Name. Lydia handing Lincoln a glass pop bottle for him from a six pack she brought and taking one herself tells him, that why he is so concerned with living up the Loud Name, Lincoln should stick to being himself and that he is at his best when he's himself instead of being someone he isn't. That why Lydia doesn't have much problem with Lincoln reading comics in his underwear and why she neogiatied a deal over being disgusted.

Lincoln admits that despite facing his fear with her, he stills feels some insecuirty in regards to his ancestors, Lydia tells him that it takes time to find acceptance in one's self and she knows this recalling back to Ford's talk to her. Lydia states that the Time Stone will be the next target.

Lincoln then asks her about her nightmares, Lydia tells Lincoln she keep having dreams/nightmares of previous events that she witnessed with the heroes. Lydia mentions to Lincoln about the doom world situation with Eobard Thawne and seeing the state of mind Thawne had people in, Morag's torture of herself and Lincoln twice and then dealing with Toffee and Bill Cipher and her nightmares out of what if it happened to her imaging herself suffocating and or being ripped atoms by atoms. Lincoln is surpised that she isn't effected by her vilgantism, Lydia states it has some effects but it's not unmanageable, she does wonder if they can actually be like kids sometimes, stating they're both only 11 are dealing with things kids shouldn't deal with and ponders when can they have time to actually be kids.

Linc takes the opportunity to shake a root beer bottle and spray Lydia and Lincoln laughs, He gets sprayed back by Lydia who laughs back and then both take their shaken bottles and start spraying each other laughing as they do it.

Chapter 3

Lydia having settled on the time stone after washing off the shoken pop off her both and Lincoln decides to work with Ford as they find out the time stone location and what exactly is guarding the way to do it. Ford explains that he really doesn't know what guarding it as something feels off about this one in particular and advises them to act carefully.

Lydia wonders how carefully, and Ford states that she must act with cautiousness and not careless actions. Ford explains that time is a theme here and that it is a dangerous power to wield. Lincoln agrees to this and Ford states that he'll get them there and they can do it since they proved the Mind Stone can be obtained by them and wants to see how Lydia and to an extent Lincoln will do.

Lydia thinks to herself who she wants to bring along for this one, She Brought Ford for the 1st one, and Anne, Molly and Luz for the 2nd one. She settles to get Sid and Cricket to help her with getting the Time Stone.

Lydia decides that she talk about what has triggered her PTSD to Angus and reveals to him and it had something to do with Her enemies, Thawne, Toffee, Bill Cipher and Morag and what they did to her or could have done to her.Angus realizes that Morag is causing some trauma for Lydia and asks how about it, he hears that Morag tried to gaslight Lydia with Ford disapproving her as an apprentice at the Northwest Manor Manison. Angus realizes that this makes sense in regards to her wanting to prove herself to Ford. Lydia reveals that Lincoln knows this as she told him

Joining up with Lincoln, Sid and Cricket they head to the time stone temple and find 3 locks and 3 doors and Lydia goes down one as Sid takes another and the boys go together.

As with Lydia, she goes into a horizontal trek facing with plenty of other enemies while avoiding swinging clocks and dealing with moving conveors as well as pendlums nearly hitting her as she scales upwards to another robotic figure and the last one which always keeps track of time and show energy shots that shape clocks at her and slows down slightly on her and Lydia has diffculity with this but eventualy overcomes it and gets another orb based key.

Lydia gets her key and realizing that the source could be for a one time use with the Time Stone and she arrives around the time Cricket and Lincoln do. This is intterupted by Morag actively showing up which causes her to be a frozen up as Morag is among her PTSD trigger and this makes it easy for Morag to grab both her and Lincoln and starts chokes both of them with her bare hands and prevents Cricket from saving them and Morag tights her grip on them when Sid does cause her to retreat and Morag is unwilling to escalate further.

Lydia and Lincoln both gasp for air and Cricket hands her the 3 key like orbs which she uses on 1 use principle to open up the door and move on.

With Lydia, Lincoln, Sid and Cricket finding the Phantom figure and they prepare to fight it right where a clock tower is in the temple and it casts a spell on said clock tower and the clock starting countdown and all of them start having counters on their heads.

The clock tower's hands get locked by Sid while Lydia, Lincoln and Cricket start exchanging hits on it which doesn't really work as the Phantom only takes damage when the heart is open and on the many ocassions it opens up the heart, the 4 take shots at it with Sid taking shots on the heart when it glows any color other than white and then the other 3 do so when it does.

All the while watching the clock count down on them and getting knocked out and all of them are nearly at the end of the counter. Then the Phantom flies to the front of the clock tower and starts forming something in its mouth and uses dark power to harm them. The 4 do manage to free themselves with Lydia and Sid using the gauntlets and wands and Lincoln just throws another dirty diaper and then the 4 finish the job.

After besting the Phantom, Lydia gets the Time Stone and puts it in her gauntlet, stating that now she is half way there and asking Lincoln what did he find and she finds out that Lincoln found that this one was not from the 1600s, but the Loud in question had a hand in helping Albert Einstein with the Theory of Relatively and she is quick to note how much the assistant looks like Lisa as they read the writing.

Upon leaving the temple, Lincoln and Lydia are introduced to Linka Loud, Lincoln's cousin and Lydia tells him to go ahead and get to know her as niether of them knew he had a cousin and it would be good writing material.

Angus and Lydia wait for Lincoln and then the trio decide to make their own plan in regards to the River Boat Queen's return and what the two kids will spefically will do in regards to it.

Chapter 4

Lydia and Linka have a discussion about the latter joining her and Lincoln in investigating the River Boat Queen. Lydia accepts for both of them to have help as she puts on Lincoln's ARGGH costume and when questioned, Lydia states it fits her and they are ghost busting to an extent. Linka hears out how Lydia met Lincoln basically from her showing up in the universe and how they teamed up to face Thawne and others and how they bonded. She mentions they went to Aruba afterwards with  Bender, Skipper, Starfire, Jorgen, Jimmy, Discord, Twilight, Finn, Amanda, Rick Sanchez, Lincoln Loud, Ronnie Anne, Luna, Luan, Bruce Wayne, Selina Kyle and Lynn. Between those two adventures she had, the two hung out and visited each other on ocassion, bascially they became best friends and starting as good friends who bonded and then she moved to Royal Woods.

Lincoln comes out in a suit to blend in which gets Lydia's eyes and attention in the "cleans up nicely way". Lincoln questions her about wearing the ARGGH costume which she says it fits. Lincoln admits he has no problem with Lydia wearing it, but they can't give themselves away which Lydia agrees to it and hands it to Linka.

Linka and Lincoln both ask her why isn't she changing her attire, Lydia shows both of them a picture of her great grand mother and Lydia tells them that she looks exactly like her at this age, so it's a good way of digusing herself. Lincoln adds that she takes after her so much it's nearly canny much like him as the last Loud Duke hence why he decided on this.

Angus gives Lydia self help tids about this encouraging her to meidate, stay active, get a service dog, set boundaries, Find a Creative Outlet, Build a Support Network, Try aromatherapy and  Seek Counseling could help out Lydia in this event, he tells her it's not a cure it's self help. Lydia admits she does do tip 2, tip 6 and tip 4. Angus states that he sees that though suggests to try the other stuff.

Lincoln and Lydia both manage to board the RIver Boat Queen sucesfully passing themselves off as ghosts as they sit down at their table and get their food which really does look nice. As they enjoy their food, they start getting to talk. Lincoln asks Lydia about the PTSD and what Angus had to say, and Lydia tells him that her to meidate, stay active, get a service dog, set boundaries, Find a Creative Outlet, Build a Support Network, Try aromatherapy and  Seek Counseling as 8 tips for it and Lincoln knows that Angus for her. Lydia asks Lincoln how is the feelings of finding out his ancestors and he said that he's a bit suprised on it about it. Cuting some filet mignon Lincoln asks Lydia does it feel weird that they're doing this right now considering where they started their friendship and Lydia feels that it's not that odd considering they are best friends now a days since when they met at Royal Woods or Great Lake she doesn't remember.

They both agree that despite their stakeout they're on, It's nice to have a night where they can just do something this simple. Lincoln adds was a dinner that thing and Lydia states if he wants, it can be. Lincoln smiles and tries steal a glance at her, which he laughs it off when Lydia notices and then Lydia does the same thing as Lincoln which Lydia laughs off it herself. Lincoln asks Lydia should they tell their parents about their work as a super heroine and his partner . Lydia states that they should know and that they will question some of her wounds and stabs which shocks Lincoln that Lydia did get shot and stabbed. Lydia points out just because she has saved the day doesn't she won't take stab or gun wounds, and she knew the stones can't always do the trick so she had to learn Suturing and it may come in handy one day to save someone else.

The two notice a lot of ghosts basically dancing and the two simply just mock the idea of dancing until Lydia states that a show is going to be have given if people don't want to suspect them of being false. Lincoln putting on Lydia's domino mask saying that they will do so, Lydia gives a look to him and he gives the same reasoning Lydia did when she wore the ARGGH Costume earlier.

The song Young World is put on and this is when Lincoln grabs Lydia's hand with the intent to blend in while singing the song together. They both feel that they're just dancing like each other's friend but they end up slow dancing instead to the song to both sides's surprise.

Scratch finds both Lincoln and Lydia and teases them about why they're actually here and their real "reason" as he puts it. Lincoln denies it and calls this a stake out they were just getting into and Scratch continuing to tease them, Lydia tells Scratch to stop teasing him and then Scratch teases her about Lydia trying to put on a mask to mask the truth and both of them decide to take the bait Scratch is teasing them with.

Before Scratch can continue, Linka and Crowley both end up pursing Aggie which is when Respac makes his plan and traps the entire Ghost Council other than Scratch as he is threatened with permaent erasue from Aggie and Respac. He is saved by Crowley like the others and they crash on Haunted Island

Scratch admits to Linka, Lydia and Lincoln that he is upset with The Council dimissing him like that. In turn he wants to prove himself worthy of their attention and feels saving the whole council is the trick. The trio agree with this, just of his sake as they set off to find The Ghost Council. Respac toys with the 4 by throwing them into the labyrinth which they manage to escape after some nativagation.

The 4 start at a haunted boardwalk after going across the cemetry and clock tower, Lincoln puts on rollerblades and hands Linka and Lydia some as they skate across the boardwalk and they go through a good deal of piers that are just about to break as they have to jump as a result passing the vampire maz as they're at it.

Scartch feeling the ghosts are getting closer nativagates them to the next part which is a dark brown muddy area with typcial horror like creatures with simple torches in the background, Scratch leads Lydia, Lincoln and Linka through the area which leads to a Ghost Bayou which is close to  where a ghostly gaileon is and the 4 of them find themselves chased by a evil ghost creature intenting to eat the 4 as a snack and they end up running as fast as they can getting them self through a long maze until they reach the end and this is where Respac resides.

Respac decides to stop goofing around and go for turning them into ghosts for him to rule over and sumons metors to hit the the group, Scratch protects them to his grumbling nature and hides them until he is vulerable after summoning more winds as Respac is holding on Aggie's wand. Respac finds himself getting sucked a bit into Lydia, Linka and Lincoln's ghost hunting technology and they try holding on to catch him. Respac continues his on going assault on them as the 3 of them try to get another hit on him, Respac decides to basically use the wand to trap Scratch intending to kill him for defying the ghost. Lincoln improvizes a trap and snares Respac and Lincoln, Lydia and Linka all equp themselves with ARGGh and Ghostbuster technology and capture him with their stuff. Respac undeterred promises he will return one day and that he will never truly be gone.

Lydia and Lincoln find the Soul Stone and another inscription for the Loud Family that they and Linka decide to look at later. Scratch manages to free the Ghost Council  and while they don't think he has being proving anything, they do consider such a possibility due to being impressed with Scratch's determination.

Lydia and Lincoln both ask each other about their "moment" and Lincoln states that they were putting on a show and well they more than peformed up to standards. Lydia agrees with this and takes the domino mask and states that as she knows another thing about Lincoln and that he can dance which gets a smile from Lincoln

Sid sees Lydia, Lincoln and Linka return from their little quest and Sid curioius like a monkey and also being nosy asks what did the former two do on their time together anything intimate. Both Lincoln and Lydia both deny this and state that it was a similar invesitgation between partners in crime. Sid rolls her eyes  and asks why is Lincoln is a suit instead of his usual attire. Lincoln says that it was a diguise thing and Sid teases Lydia about being his pick for who to join him. Lydia states that it was just that they went on it before and wanted to recheck something.

Sid rolls her eyes again about them just doing that and says to both of them to keep telling themselves that.

Ford decides he has to tell the truth to Lydia about what he and Angus learned. Lincoln and Linka both decide they want to hear this too as he agrees. Ford tells Lydia that Aggie Mclaughin's conquest over Loch Loud eventually went across seas and she slienced anyone who opposed her

Ford reveals to Lydia, Linka and Lincoln that the one that really had her put away was the murder of a spunky young woman who managed to expose her corruption to the world and was investigating the Mclaughin. As soon as she exposed Aggie to the world ruining her stellar reputation, Aggie attacked and murdered her not with the dragon stone which was how she managed to get power and hide her reptuation. Aggie killed her with her own bare hands strangling the young woman. Lydia asks Ford what this means and Ford gulps realziing what he must say and he reveals that her last name is Lopez and that Lydia looks at her photo she had and realizes that her great grand mother who she used as a ghost disguise was  the one Aggie murdered with her own bare hands, this sets Lydia as utterly stunned. which Lincoln and Linka both note and she decides to leave the room in blank silence with Linka becomes concerned about Lydia's lack of response

Chapter 5

Back in the dorms, Lydia is still laying on her and Lincoln's bed with a blank stare as she starting thinking about how Aggie could have possibly killed her great grand mother other than choking her, and then she of how Morag did this to her and Lincoln likely on purpose. She thinks even more shocked that Aggie proably opressed her family as well which led to this.

Lincoln, Linka, Ford,Angus, Anne and Luz all enter the dorm to help her out of this. Each of them brings up their own assessment to this, and Lydia adds her own views on this while feeling angry that it was more than just being Lincoln's partner in crime and best friend that Morag put a target on her back, it was her lineage being connceted to The Mclaughin and that she is unsure to pursue revenge on Morag and Aggie for this. She even admits this is unlike her to think on. After Anne,Luz and Lincoln offer olive branches to help her out with this, the latter stays with her and Linka as Lydia receives takeout she ordered which Lincoln identifies is part of her usual particually bad moments under duress,

Alongisde Lincoln and Linka, Lydia find out the next part of Lincoln's ancestors with Lincoln and Linka find out the next part of Lincoln's ancestor goal they have picked up at Haunted Island and how it's neat the Lincoln's whole ancestory build Loch Loud in a way according to what they found on Lucille

Remembering Marcy gave her a video before heading off on her own quest, Lydia shows Lincoln and Linka it and turns that Toffee made the video and reveals  that he was the one who plotted the clone army of septarians with Ratiskor being the one to carry it out in the event of his death which he suspected he was. Toffee then tells the two, to see how they will do in this case as he wants to see if the duo beating him in the future was a fluke or the real deal. Lincoln is naturally confused at this as is Lydia that Toffee would anticpate this and still be respectful towards them. Linka asks about Toffee and Lincoln tells her all about him

Lydia and Lincoln are both confused about Lalo actually wanting to help with Morag again and that he wanted to be frozen. Linka spectualtes that the Salamanca wanted to be safe from betrayal at the hands of the cult, or he has some respect and liking for her cousin and Lydia that he was willing to tell them. Lydia spectualtes both

The three then scheme to bring their 5th stone back for Lydia to use in combination with the others. Ford and Angus decide to join them and this is because Lydia's shock and slience looks really got them concerned for her if she tries to go at without supervision from them. Lydia is skeptical but does accept this, as she knows deep down that she can't use the stones properly if she is not fully in control.

Entering the ice temple There are a lot of ice creatures that emerge and go after the team as Angus nativagates the team with the map to get the power stone where as Lydia uses the time stone to stop time for the group. The 5 find some keys which they use to go through the temple while pulling blocks out

Traveling to the 2nd floor, many of the blocks are full of ice which Ford breaks apart to let them all go through and find another small key. After entering the next room which has a puzzle which is solved by Lincoln, Linka and Lydia using simple deductions and the five continue traversing around the winter temple.

This is where a Wizzrobe appears and casts a freezing spell on them, Linka takes an arrow and shoots it this prompts Lydia, Ford and Lincoln to do the same thing. The Wizzrobe then creates clones of itself to confuse them. Angus identifies which one is the real one and this lets the other 4 get the last few hits in on it.

After wards this is when Lydia start going through some halluncations trouble that Morag and Aggie are putting on the girl tormenting her with visualizations of her great grand mother taunting the girl. Lydia tries to keep herself under control of Morag's taunts and Aggie's mental attacks to the point where she is almost ready to set the stones on her halluncation of Aggie. Lincoln, Linka and Ford as well as Angus do their best to Keep Lydia from going too nuts over this.

Lydia further is taunted that she will die the same way or if Morag has her way, worse and that will be the greatest achievement. Lydia eventually listens to Lincoln, Ford, Linka and Angus's words and regains focus telling Morag she will have do better than that to get her down.

Taking out more ice foes and going through the doors and pillars, they go back to enterance area and cross a freezie bridge. Ford finds the way to the 3rd floor and leads them up there.

They don't spend too much time and just go through the west door which they unlock which allows them to go the 4th floor.  This is where another Wizzrobe is and the 5 do the same thing they did before to get a big key

This is where they encouter Goht, who is frozen solid, Ford thaws it as it's the only way to get the power stone and the fight starts.

The Goht runs around the arena and the others follow it while avoiding stalcaities falling and the rocks that it's throwing.  The Goht launces magic attacks which Lydia deflects with the Mind Stone  which allows Lincoln, Ford and Linka to strike at it with their weapons

The Goht drops bombs which they all avoid, as both Lincoln and Ford continue to strike at it as Linka and Lydia then decide to head to the enterance areas with a bow and arrow where Angus is and he advises Lydia to the Time Stone being used to keep it in place.

As Lincoln and Ford damage it and bring it closer to the area, Lydia putting on her costume and equpiing the gauntlets to the suit uses the time stone to freeze it in place and then Linka snipes it with arrows until it's killed

This is when the power stone is up for grabs and free which Lydia grabs to put to her gauntlets. Lincoln and her both state they are now 5 for 6 in regards to the stones. Lydia asks Lincoln about the Louds anecestory on this one

Lincoln looks at it and learns the truth of this part of the Loch Loud world came to be which was made to be a way to house lost travelers and explorers that was abadoned a long time ago which explains why monsters resided there. With Aggie driving the Louds out it was unable to be perserved by anyone.

Afterwards, Lincoln mentions to Lydia about her freakouts and that she should be honest with Ford about wanting to step out of his shadow and pushes her to talk to Ford just like Angus does with Ford. Lydia confesses to Ford that the reason she's been doing all this and when against his whole not be a super hero thing is because while she is no longer doubtful of being ideal for Ford's apprentice, she has another concern. When Ford asks, Lydia states that she doesn't want to be stuck in his shadow and she admittingly does feel that with Ford's reptuation, she feels that way a bit. Ford points that he himself is trying to find the best way to ultimately let go a bit as he realizes that she is coming to her own and has been having trouble with just that as she is like his kid to him and Lydia admits she is like another father to her. The two eventually agree that they hold a little back from each other in this regard.

Chapter 6

Luz and Anne proceed to talk to both Lincoln and Lydia about the temple situation of Lydia getting tormented by The Mclaughins. Luz asks is Lydia really fine about it and Lydia states she’s fine. Anne isn’t so sure as Lydia did almost lose control over the stones as she did over hear this. Lincoln states that she’s fine and he made sure of it. Anne states that this could be something even Lincoln cannot handle and Luz agrees with this. Luz insists that Lydia does not go after the final infinity stone alone and thinks how to get to join her.

Afterwards, she is given her heroine costume that Linka did work on to make it better and more agile. Lydia thanks Linka for this and decides to head with her and Licoln to the final temple. Amity and Raticus don’t want to feel left out and join them. This is funny as Lydia wanted to bring them with the team and they head off to obtain the reality stone

This final dungeon is a Gargoyle's Domain which is the group natigvates through the many rooms unitl they reach a treasure chest which has a big key in there. Going up some more stair cases, and go the corner to lock that door with the big key. The group runs to the top of the room and finds another key but smaller key under a skull. Lincoln, Lydia, Linka, Raticus and Amity grabs the key and unlock another small door.

The 5 characters get some goodies from the pots and go pass the enemies. Heading some more rooms, another small key is found by them. A Crystal Swtich is pushed before heading through the locked door

Heading into a southeast room and push another floor switch to open a door. Going east, they reach a screen with some lights shining in. Lincoln drops a bomb and throws it at the cracked floor. This breaks a hole allowing some light to shine in the room. Returning to the same room they went east from and go down the stairs to continue their quest for the stone.

As they lift a large block and walk through small locked doors and find a chest to get a small key which they open on the left and go through. After smacking some moles, a new mitt is found for people to use in lifting big rocks which Lincoln uses as the floors crumbles.

Going up another floor, The 5 of them find a floor switch which they use to open a nearby door. Heading into the room, a dungeon boss emerges as a result and it's a dangerous monster like thief. It moves left and right and shoots lasers, Lydia and Amity figure out the head is the main vulernability and have Lincoln and Linka strike the head. Fireballs are shot at them and they dodge this, hitting the head 3 times with many strikes another head is regrown.

Amity takes the chance to damage it without approaching with the abomdination magic while Raticus stalls it so the other 3 can approach it and finish off both heads

Lydia places the Reality Stone in the gauntlet and it’s completed and she looks at the final part of Lincoln’s heritage when Morag ambushes them and kidnaps Lincoln and then tries to go after Lydia, Linka, Amity, and Raticus.

Unknownist to her, Tom saves them and they escape with Nessie who gets them back to Ford. With Lincoln being kidnapped, Lydia decides she is going to save Lincoln from Morag. Linka convinces her ultimately convinces her not to go after Morag alone, and Lydia agrees to this

Teleporting to the castle, Lydia and Linka go into cold stares as they are bent on saving their best friend as they end bringing all the monster soldiers to their knees and stunning as Lydia is going all out with the infinity gauntlet to protect and save her partner.

Linka and Lydia both arrive at Morag’s doorstep and find out about Morag’s poseession plan regarding Lincoln and sends him to kill Lydia.

Lincoln tries to overcome his possession and had to use the venom symobite powers on Lydia who fights this off with the stones as she goes off using the Space, Power, Mind, Reality and Time Stones to basically hold off Lincoln and just trying to catch him before down so she can remove the symboite

Their whole showdown is even handed as neither of them are really trying to hurt each other. Lydia is holding back to not hurt him and Lincoln is trying to fight the control of the symboite as he struggles to maintain control. After the symboite nearly puts Lydia in a near death situation after being blasted by the stones at above full power from Lydia, Lincoln finally gains back control and lets Lydia do what she has to do.

Lydia catches the tell and starts ripping off the goo symbolite piece by piece with her own bare hands to save and Snap Lincoln out of this. Lydia then destroys the Venom Goo symbolite with the Infinity Stones not wanting to hurt it anyone else

Morag however has Linka in her clutches, Morag threatens the duo if they don’t surrender she will kill Linka and she will destroy everything the Louds have in this deceptively big town. Lincoln backs down to save his cousin, Lydia does question this as she doesn’t trust Morag at all.

Morag proves Lydia right and throws Linka off a cliff, Lincoln gets a rope to save her but this lands on Linka’s neck and Lydia hears hears a snap and  teleports herself down to catch her before the snap. Morag smirks at this realizing she has succeeded.

Lydia saves Linka and Lincoln thinks he saved her but both of them learn that Linka is dead and in Lincoln’s own arms no less. Both of them realize that Morag put the rope there so Lincoln could use it and make it look he murdered his own flesh and blood.  

Morag commands her dragon to destroy everything of the Loud’s name in Loch Loud or as she puts it Loch Mclaughin’s new ascend. Lydia death glares her in fury for what she did and is preparing to just wipe her off the face of the earth for this action. Lydia first checks on Linc to see if he really is okay as  Morag prepares her plastic bags and zip ties to kill Lydia and Lincoln like Manfred said to do.

Deciding she isn't finishing hurting Lincoln or Lydia, Morag decides to stab Lydia with a blade, though Lincoln saves Lydia by taking it in the leg. Morag then unleashes her full powers to send both of them down to the pits of the castle.

It start raining after they land and both of them are fine apart from Lincoln’s leg injury. Lincoln gets a contact from Ford who asks him to give them a hand with this situation they have. Lincoln has enough and yells at Ford, Anne, Luz, Sid, Marcy, Cricket, Crowley, Raticus, Amity, Molly and Scratch venting about how about they are always dumping their problems on Lincoln and always making it so hard for him to talk to them through all his problems he’s had through the last two adventures. He rants that he is only a kid and expect him to be equipped to deal with it and doesn’t have the knowledge or resources to do so. Lincoln finishes that they need to do this themselves as he is tired of all this.

Lincoln stops his huff and his meltdown continues as he ends up hurting himself by smacking his leg and shaking his head while weeping about what happened with Linka. Lydia who has tears in her eyes as well watched Lincoln lash out at the group other than herself and knowing he was traumatized by this. Lydia hugs Lincoln to stop him from hurting himself and holds him while he breaks down in her arms.

Finale

Lincoln is looking really down over this as he feels reponsible for his cousin's death and is beating himself up about it. As he does Lydia is using the space stone and other stone to set an Ace Savry Blanket, an umbrella, an ice bucket and a snack/drink in the rain. Lincoln sits down on it and Lydia asks him is he ready to talk.

Lincoln is and he explains that he is just trying to deal with Linka's death, he is shaken and like he tells Lydia that it's his fault and that he killed Linka. Lydia tells Lincoln that it's not his fault, it's not Linka's fault no one is blame to but Morag for doing the deed. Lincoln forlorn asks what will he do and he will miss her so much. Lydia tells Lincoln, that he will alwas miss Linka, but she will always be a part of him as long as he remembers the time he had with her and in a way he'll never be apart from her.

Lincoln states when all this trauma go away for him and Lydia states it's different for everyone and eventually there will be a day he'll wake up and do his business and Lincoln will realize he never thought about the event and that will be when and once he knows it's possible that's when it will get easier he gotta do it every day,  That's the hard part. But it does get easier. Lydia then realizes that Lincoln didn't teach the hard truth of the hero thing and she explains that "the hardest thing about this job is... you can't always save everybody."

Lydia explains she herself couldn't forgive herself for her failiure to save Cleo, and even pointing despite still caring for her, it would have been better if she was dead so Lydia woudn't have to see the person Cleo became. She adds they're only kids and the fact they thay have to deal with this thing at 11 years old would haunt anyone.

Lincoln aplogoizes that he didn't mean to lash out at the others and Lydia explains she caught this. Lincoln just got frustrated that everyone dumps their problems on him apart from Lydia. Lydia admits she does too but Lincoln states that she allows him to vent and discuss these things with him so it's not that way to him.

Lincoln tries to move but his leg wound is in pain, Lydia realizes she must suture the wound remembering this and she sews up the leg as they continue to talk.

Lydia admits she herself does run into problems regarding the infinity stones and that for having she has been questioned by Amity. She was questioned with her knowledge on the stones and capability to use them why not use them to do  things like making water clearer,  making all resources infinite or allowing endangered species to begin recovering. Lincoln asks why doesn't she do that, Lydia explains that she is just a kid like him and that if it went out that she had the Inifinty Gauntlet people would attempt to steal it from her or line up in front of their door step to make demands. She should decide this and between her and her closest friend, Lydia states that she will the stones for one excessive thing, Dusting Morag.

Lincoln advises revenge ain't the best way, Lydia states this isn't for revenge this is to keep Morag and her ancestors from doing any more damage to him, her, or anyone. Realizing that Lalo did make a  point after they dealt with her the 1st time. After that they will explore dealing with Linka's death as a team. Lydia finishes up and states he won't be able to run for a bit until he gets to an actual doctor. Lydia grabs Lincoln and puts him on her shoulders as they go to run after Morag.

Morag is ambushed by both of them and Morag is arrogant  as ever and taunts both of them for openly showing themselves. Lincoln states he was willing to forgive her for many things but this crossed the line. Morag taunts Lincoln with that he will always be plain  boring Lincoln Loud. like last time and he will still and always been stuck in the shadows like he belongs.

Lydia with cold fury dumps a bucket of ink on Morag's head calling her a miserable old hag who delights in torturing children and that she is unfit for power and that her family was always unfit for it. Morag tells Lydia she is the real ruler of Loch Loud not this little kid or Angus and somehow a nobody like Lydia thinks she has the right to make this point.

Lydia states Angus and Lincoln knew what was it to be a real ruler, Morag is a petty person beyond compare against the Louds for wanting to kill and exile them over wanting peace and quiet. She adds that Morag dragged Lydia herself into her blood feud with them because she happens to be the partner of the Loud Morag hates most. That isn't a ruler that's a baby, Lincoln encourages by Lydia scolding Morag viciously say he's won't be backing down any time soon and that he will stop her with Lydia and Lincoln fistbumps her like he did regarding Toffee and Bill Cipher. Morag states that is matters none when she can just kill both Loud and Brace Face.

Morag uses her power blast of magic attacks to attack Lincoln and Lydia with the intent kill them, Lydia runs away with Lincoln on her shoulders. Morag slams the ground with a magic blast intending to sink the castle to the ground not caring anymore if she is seen doing it, she just want the Loud Clyde and Partner Bonnie to be  loud no more

Morag creates energy orbs and shoot them at both of them hurting both of them. Lincoln realizes that this is like a video game and asks if Lydia can make a sword appear. Lydia states she can and uses the reality and space stones to make one appear.

Morag isn't too pleased that Lydia does know how to use the stones and that this could be a problem and Lydia advises Lincoln to reflect them back to her which he does and states which way to shoot it as Morag fires them back and forth. Lydia then uses the mind stone to freeze her in place and the energy ball hits Morag.

Lincoln tells Lydia to use the Space Stone which she does, and Lincoln slashs Morag with the blade and Lydia uses the Power Stone to create energy and shoots Morag with it. Morag then uses her magic powers to force both of the kids off and use lighting strikes on both of them.

Morag decides to go for Lydia and the Gauntlet which Lincoln holds the sword in front of her. Lincoln asks Lydia how many times has he saved her, Lydia states it's 20 to 20 for them.

Morag continues this process 3 more times and tries using Ice and Fire Spells to hinder them as well. Lincoln and Lydia both take some hits on the way and Lincoln realizes Morag just uses offensive magic as opposed to other kinds. Lydia realizes that Morag is crippled that way

While aware of this, Morag bends the blood of both of them intend to control them, Lincoln uses a magic trick to escape this

Morag creates tentacles to whip and attempt grab them again, the duo keeps distance from her, Lincoln's sword doesn't work out and he decides to wait for her to be vulerable between whipping and Lydia uses the Time Stone to stop her in place and then Lincoln takes the chance to attack her as Lydia holds Morag in place with the Time Stone

After 2 more instances, Morag makes spikes to impale them and Lydia dodges them with Lincoln on top to get away from this. Morag grabs one and intends to stab Lincoln but Lydia trips her knocking her off. Morag then attacks Lydia with a fused magic punch to the teeth and tries to use another one but Lincoln stops this with a slash to the hair.

Lincoln asks are they 21-21, Lydia states they are.

Morag takes more hits and damage by the combined works of both of them. Lincoln states that Lydia's teeth are acting out, Lydia states she will fight through them.

Having enough, Morag uses her strongest magic to  just destory them and make herself invulearble to their attacks. Lincoln states can she go for all the stones at once and just break those defenses, Lydia states she could but it will take some serious work on her part. Lincoln tells Lydia that he knows she can do it, Lydia snaps her fingers and Morag's defenses start shattering on her and Lydia throws one of the gauntlets off and uses the Power Stone to shoot energy shots at Morag who is trying withstand it and Lydia uses the mind stone to keep her back in place and Lincoln slashes her again.

Lincoln and Lydia both grab the crown, but Morag won't let them and the three fight in regard to the crown and Lydia takes the gauntlet back that used all six stones and snaps her fingers to dust Morag. Lincoln then holds Morag down so she can't escape it. Morag tries to get take them down with her and Lincoln and Lydia both notice that the 7 Sins are draining her soul.

Lincoln and Lydia are saved by Lincoln's dragon on Angus and takes them back to the others.

The Next Day, Lincoln waits in the waiting room for Lydia to come out and sadly she has headgear on her, Lydia bemoans that she has to once again wear and she was treated like a monster last time. Lincoln cheers her up by saying that they are techinally chipped teeth buddies and that she looks fine to him as his wound was put in a cast. Lincoln and Lydia both found out that it was Jorge De Guzma that funded this as Hilda found out about this as Lincoln mentioned this and she went to Tiatntius Anglesmith to investigate this

As they waited for Angus, Lincoln tells Lydia that she asked him earlier what who she really is  Is she the mask that hides her face or the one is her face. Lincoln has an answer for Lydia.

"It's not about the mask, it's about the heroine or hero that makes the choices and accepts them. The heart is ultimately what it's all about and that Lydia, Lincoln or anyone can't hide that. He says this while holding Lydia's hand and unlike last time neither side is really getting uncomfortable

Angus as he praises the team singles out both of them in particular as the kids who stood up for what's right and doing right by their friends and teammates. Angus admits he sees Duke potential in Lydia and Lincoln and that one day he hopes one or both of them can take over when he steps down.

Lincoln and Lydia both leave Loch Loud with Ford telling them to take care of each other while he's away. Lydia and Lincoln both decide to tell their parents about their actions.

At the end of the day and around 11pm, Both of them snuck out to a convience store to drink and watch the stars at the park where they met at the beginning. Lydia and Lincoln ask who's place tonight and they settle on the former and discuss what their parents thought about all this. Lydia's parents are split between concerned and proud and Lincoln's are a bit worried too though like Lydia seem proud of the moral fiber of their boy. Lincoln states he will be out of the cast in a few weeks and she'll be out of her headgear in a few months, he thanks the others for stepping for him and wanting to help him with this Linka situation. Lydia states that why she decided to bunk with him until he's ready and she reveals that she kept everything they went and all the landmarks on her phone and she send the details to Ford, Angus and the others to start repairing, it's the least she can do for him.

Lincoln reminds Lydia she's done more than she has to for him but is thankful for tears for Lydia still. Lydia takes out the book from last time and shows him what she's added before teleporting them back into Lydia's bed room. Lincoln sends another letter to Hilda before lying down in bed with Lydia next to him and telling her are the parents really okay with their constant sleep overs. Lydia reassures him that they are fine as she is doing for a good cause to help her best friend.

Lydia keeps reading her book laying down on her side quiet deep in thought and Lincoln looks at the ceiling on his side deep in thought as well and smile as they do so.

Prologue

One Rainy Day in Royal Woods, a bit after dealing with Morag Mclaugin who Lydia personally killed with Lincoln in tow, Lydia is waiting outside with a umbrella with her friends Truman X, Anne, Luz, Molly, Scratch, Tweety and Sylvester for Lincoln to return from Trolberg

Upon being asked by Scratch and Sylvester about why they are waiting in the rain, Lydia tells them that she’s waiting for Lincoln and that afterwards, Lincoln’s mom is taking her and him to the dentist to remove the headgear Morag cursed on her.  Luz states that she didn’t technically curse it on her, which Lydia doesn’t deny but it feels like one.  Truman sees Lincoln’s vechile and tells Lydia this which she is happy as it’s been a week since she saw him. Molly is quick to notice Lydia’s joy and as soon as Lydia sees Lincoln, she hugs him saying it’s been so long since they seen each other.

With Scratch and Anne teasing Lydia about this, she tells Truman to take them inside. She has an appointment for headgear to get off. Lincoln takes Lydia into Mrs. Loud’s office and he watches as they take off the headgear. Lydia feels relieved that she has the headgear off, She calls Anne, Luz, Molly and Scratch and thanks them for taking care of her duties as a heroine despite what she found out about Team Free Will being Disassembled

One trip to Flip’s later, She has the biggest size of Flippie that she and Lincoln are nuzzing down with the same straw. Lincoln asks Lydia how does it feel to have the head gear off, and she states that it feels like she’s more herself and less Boris Karloff’s Frankstein child. Lincoln laughs at the comparison and states that he prefers her this way too and that if she didn’t have braces, it wouldn’t feel Lydia to him. Lydia giggles at this and asks Lincoln how was his therapy trip to Trolberg.

Lincoln explains that it was actually very relaxed, he got to spend time with his friend Hilda and her Mom. Lydia asks about her and Lincoln tells Lydia about her massive love for adventuring and exploring though she was grounded for the last sneak out in regards to an investigation. Lydia asks about it, Lincoln mentions Tiantinus Anglesmith and his case. Lincoln states that he felt more in a normal life that he ever felt and states that the adventures may have taking a toll on him.

Lydia asks him did he tell anyone else about this, Lincoln states he did tell Anne, Luz, Hilda, Angus, Ford and her as he is more open about his ability to come to others about things, he still prefers Lydia to all of them. Lydia learns about Lincoln and Hilda being pretty tide, though Lincoln sees Hilda as just one of his best friends though he feels something for her, Lydia is a little uneasy about this noting Hilda was getting close to Lincoln. Lincoln tells Lydia that she is still his partner and his main friend, calming her down as she understands his cues. Lincoln tells Lydia that he even got a nice tour of Trolberg and thinks Hilda’s mom is pretty chill. Joanna would like to see Lincoln again as he tells her, Lydia asks Lincoln if he wants to do a spy mission soon. Lincoln smiles as he still wants to do his super hero and spy stuff with Lydia despite the adventure taking tolls on him as it’s always worth it with her while getting a bit red in the checks

Truman shows up with Tweety and Sylvester admits that he just heard a spy mission and they all want in. Lincoln asks when did he hear this and Truman admits he was spying on them flirting with each other and sharing saliva as well as he he is in on this. Lydia and Lincoln both ignore Truman’s comment and ask how he is in and they learn that his family is investigating some enemy spies tomorrow night and he can help them with this. Sylvester and Tweety both offer to come with them as their routine is getting boring. Lydia and Lincoln both agree.

Truman shows Lydia where his family is and what she will do as he provides her with spy gear. He advises that she and Lincoln must pretend to be part of the audience and act like a pair which he states they have plenty of experience, Lydia states it’s a just friends thing as Tweety flies with the gear to give to Lydia for the mission and stuff needed. Sylvester shows up and presents Lincoln as David Steel’s costume and Lydia can’t contain herself as she states he’s David Steel in all but name and age. Lincoln smiles and states he’ll see her in the car that Truman got ready for them. Truman and Sylvester both give looks to Lydia and she states that they would be thinking it too which the former doesn’t deny.

Lydia decides to make a surprise entrance into the passenger seat by putting on a parachute and jumping off the bulidng to  land in the passenger’s seat. Lincoln compliments this saying he didn’t expect her to do that and likes it. Tweety joins them in the car as Truman and Sylvester go off with the X Family.

As they follow Truman’s instructions, Lydia takes her seat with Lincoln as they are served dinner, Lincoln and Lydia continue their talk they had earlier over dinner as Lydia asks is Lincoln in the right mental condition to do this and Lincoln states he is and he asks about Lydia and her teeth in which Truman gave her a way to keep her teeth from being damaged. Lincoln asks her what does she think of Ford dissaembling Team Free Will, Lydia admits it’s sad that the Cleo thing went out and she wonders how it happened as Lincoln shows her a paper from Trolberg about Nolan Greyson revealing that Team Free Will was protecting the causer of Weirdmagedon he read. He also mentions the causalities of the event and what became of the multiverse, Lydia is suspicious of this and how Nolan got this info.

She decides to discuss this later and asks him what his feelings about Ford’s decision. Lincoln states he like Lydia is sad and that the team got buried in bad press. He states he has seen a good thing in this and it’s not having to worry about his friends, his family, Lydia or himself and he has seen some sense of normal life in his week in Trolberg with Hilda and her mom, but he states his normal life feels right with Lydia no matter where he is as he holds Lydia’s hand. Lydia flattered asks him about what he told Hilda, Lincoln states he told Hilda a lot but he left out the bad aspects he went under so he wouldn’t worry Hilda or her mom as they both smile at each other and just about lean in to do you know what when Truman directs their attention to a family which Lincoln is aware of and tells Lydia of the Miller Family and Truman tells them that this is a meeting to stop the growth of cherry in the U.S and replace it with peaches.

The Miller Family takes the stage and announced S.U.S.P.E.N.S.E’s latest plan to damage the cherry supply and this is when Lincoln steps up to foil their plan with Truman’s inventions and Lydia stands by his side as he does so. Truman  and the Xs show up as well and corner the Miller Family and they decide to attack the group and the rest of the attendees are S.U.S.P.E.N.S.E members who attack too and Tweety and Sylvester show up to take them on

A Long heated battle between Lydia, Lincoln, Truman, The X Family, Tweety, Sylvester against the S.U.S.P.E.N.S.E Agents goes on and the Millers attempt to escape them until a blonde blue eyed woman shows up and takes their secret formula in regards to the depopulation of cherries and escapes. The Millers do escape capture though

Lydia, Lincoln, Sylvester and Tweety all notice the said woman and she introduces herself to them as Larke Tanner and she is undercover for a important person who wants to see Team Free Will. Lydia states the group was disbanded which Sylvester adds due to something being leaked out and lied to. Larke states that she and her employer feel something went down and they want to help and that to follow her.  They agree to follow her and get into her car with Truman who got his folks permission to go with his 2 best friends.

After having the others being picked up by Larke and plenty of exchanges between the team including what was she doing with Lincoln and Truman. Lydia finds out that Larke’s employer is Deathstroke her former adversary. She questions this but he states that he put himself in power to make up for what he did under Thawne. Deathstroke tells Lydia he knows she is Lydil Red and that he is keeping her secret as she has done good and that he was keeping taps on her through Larke. Lydia asks why Deathstroke has her here and he states that Cleo has escaped from prison and clearly is up to no good even aligning with Nolan Greyson who exposed this bombshell regarding Team Free Will and is smearing her.

Talking with Lincoln, Anne, Luz, Truman, Her Pets, as well as Ford and Amanda who she reunited with, she decides to step up to bringing  down and fighting her former teammate  and what she has in mind and accepts Deathstroke’s help as he introduces her to Bean and Captain Hero who are some of the associates of his P.I who is on a sabbatical due to situations beyond his control.

Chapter 1

With Deathstroke and his allegiance being confirmed, Lydia joins the others in going to Trolberg. Lydia spefically joins Lincoln to see Hilda who she is introduced to properly despite not meeting in person before. Lydia and Lincoln both discuss their situtation with Hilda

Lydia and Lincoln both tell Hilda that they have a crisis/mission regarding their Team and they have a name to clear. Hilda asks about this and Lydia states to her that their team was wrongfully accused of harboring a crook who while indeed one didn't cause Weirdmagedon. Lincoln states that he needs her help with his team and that's why he and her are here. Hilda unsuspringly thinks they are innocent just like Deathstroke.  Ford and Bruce both visit as well during this

The 4 attempt to recurit Hilda to the team, though Joanna states that she was grounded for her prior sneak out and lying about it. Joanna does at least tell Lincoln and her that if they need any help she can see what she can do to help them. Lydia thanks her for the consideration before leaving

As they think on what to do with Hilda. Hilda arrives with Captain Hero saying she decided to sneak out anyway to help them. Lydia rolls her eyes and wonders if she's learnt anything and she better have a good cover for this one. Upon being reassured by Hilda that she does, Lydia grabs her Infinity Gauntlets and the Stones and pockets them.

With Austraila, Lydia makes a promise not to fight with Kim by Lincoln, She sticks to her word as they visit the Setori House. Kim does lightly tease Lydia, but is cool about it mostly. Kim tells the 5 that she overheard Cleo did escape and she did find out. Kim reveals she was shocked that her sister actually killed a guard. Lydia states she heard about that and Lincoln was densatlized to that violence. Lincoln tells Kim about the Linka Death situation and what it did to him, Lydia states she actaully saw him break down in front of her.

Lincoln is advised to keep a close eye out for Cleo and report anything he notes to her and She will see what she can do. Kim hands her phone number to both Lincoln and Lydia as Cleo has some connection to them and knows they are safe from her. Lydia agrees to this and thanks Kim for being cool. Kim states that they are cool, she realized how foolish she was being and how she wasted her time fighting with Lydia and that she should have tried to be a better sister. Lydia confesses that she felt it would be better if Cleo wasn't ressurected, Kim notices how troubled she is by this as she leaves.

Upon their next destination to Illonis to recruit Mark Greyson (Invincible), Lydia decides to don the cape and cowl. Once asked, she states that this is a super hero comic and wanted to take the role for her time here. WHen asked how many comics has Lydia read and she states a lot of them. Upon their visit, it is Lydia who ultimately convinces Invicible they are trust worthy by revealing who she is to him and Mark aplogizes to Lydia about the way his father slandered her. Mark also promises to keep her identify secret from his dad as he is trying to find out who she really is. Afterwards, she is told of his dad and this is when agents and spies show up on them

Following Lincoln and in turn followed by Hilda, the three run into The Miller Family who want to finish the former two for ruining their cherry plan and working with Larke. Lydia is not amused, and tells Hilda and Lincoln to go for the son and dad, while she goes for the mom. Lydia goes fisticuffs with her despite having the Gauntlet as she intends to not go for the powers.

While a bit of a struggle, she shows that her training with Vasequez was not for show using her reflexes and precise but effective hits despite being a kid. Taking a few shots here and there, Lydia manages to come out on top and pins her down by the arm, only letting her go after Hilda has them escape after getting their kid down.

Lydia, Lincoln and HIlda report what The Millers told them and in turn the two join Ford, Brcue, Truman and Larke Tanner to go visit Deathstroke at the white house.

Chapter 2

With Larke at the wheel, she drives Lincoln, Lydia, Ford, Truman and Bruce in the car to see the president. Lincoln tells her about M.A.L.I.CE which Larke confirms that Deathstroke knew about that as he told her. Lincoln asks did he mention anything about the Millers and Lydia adds they were a smaller fraction working for him.

Larke tells Lincoln and the others he didn't state that. With the moon and night having come, Larke and Ford both decide they need to stop for the night and stop at a campsite. With the 6 parking up tents and the usual stuff. Lydia sets her sleeping bag in the tent as she watches her friends put up their stuff, stuck in deep thought.

Later that night, unlike her friends she is still awake staring at the tent. She sees Lincoln sleeping with his stuffed rabbit in their sleeping bags which they're sharing. Lydia takes a walk in her sleep  and ends up lying down on the grass thinking more.

This is when she hears voices, 6 to be precise and they come from the sky and they reminsce the 6 infinity stones. Surpised that they are communicating with her, Lydia states this can't be true though the stones state but it is. Lydia questions why are they talking to her, she is told by the stones that a new Gauntlet has been making it's way through the multiverse, and there is another.

Lydia asks about this and the stones tell her that it's a Nano Gauntlet. Questioning it's exitence, she is told that it was created a long time ago to counter the effects of a snapping that occured. Lydia asks about it, and that stated it took place in the past, and that Lydia and her friends must stop the holder of it from accomplishing their desire, and if failing that the person. Lydia decides to question if they made the right choice by choosing her, The Stones tell her that picked an unusal one but have confidence in Lydia for both learning how to use the stones and taking repsonibility in finding them. She is told that they will be in touch and disappear. Lydia just stares in the sky thinking what did she just see?

That next day with the rest of the team driving up to Deathstroke's office, Lydia is lost in thought and sleep as the other 5 discuss matters which goes all the way to the offfice. As the gang is escorted to the office and they discuss their info, Lydia is still barley there  and trying to pay attention until she finally speaks up.

Lydia tells Deathstroke, Lincoln, Ford, Truman, Larke, Bruce and Number 2 about she suspects that M.A.L.I.C.E is trying to use a Nano Gauntlet for whatever their plans are. She is asked about this, and Lydia states that it's a weapon that was created a long time ago orchestrated by a duo of unlikely heroes who led a way to undo a snap, she doesn't know who though. Deathstroke asks about Toffee and Bill Cipher causing Weirdmagedon and how similar to it is that in regards to the snap as he was told by his allies. Ford states that he did see Toffee have one in Gravity Falls when they were facing The Cult, but only that one time. Number 2 and Deathstroke question why Toffee  would just ditch it afterwards and that M.A.L.I.C.E found it at some point, maybe one of the villains working for him worked for Toffee before. The team then wonders how Lydia came to such a conclusion that it's a Nano Gauntlet with Truman and Ford thinking it's weird but believable, Larke and Bruce both being a little curious and Deathstroke and Number 2 deciding to look into this.

Lydia phones Kim and tells her what she dealt with and though she finds it weird, she does listen and realize Lydia may know something due to those thingies in that gauntlet, which she corrects him as the stones.

Lydia felt a little embrassed for just blurting it out and thinks to herself when Lincoln ambushes her by grabbing her which makes her laugh telling him to stop. Lincoln puts her down and he asks about the Nano Gauntlet and how she came up with it. Lydia tells Lincoln that it was the Stones, they commuicated last night with her and told some things including that. Lincoln states that's why she was snoozing in the car, and he  believes she is right and informs her what the others think. He also adds hasn't she gotten over insomina?, Lydia states it doesn't always work and asks are they really going to keep this to themselves again and are they really the only ones that they can really be open about this?

Linc states they can tell the others, He's learned to be more open thanks to therapy. It's just it feels they have a certain comfort level reserved for their one and ones.

As they talk, Lincoln feels some ripping in the water and Lydia holds her gauntlet up in her right hand ready to attack whoever did so. It happens to be Cleo who just broke one of Deathstroke's men neck and shows up on them. Lydia stilling have her gauntlet up asks Cleo what she wants

Cleo states she just wants to talk to them and see how they're doing. The two answer honesty and ask what she is planning or intending to do . Cleo explains honesty, that she is trying to change the multiverse for the better. Lincoln adds does breaking someone's neck count?, Cleo states that it's a necessary death, for what she has in mind. Lincoln and Lydia both question Cleo on this, though all Cleo states is the two have nothing to worry about, as they are safe from her.

Cleo is at least aplogotic about Lincoln's scaring in Loch Loud and proud that Lincoln and Lydia both stopped Morag. She never would have done that to them despite everything, she is quick to notice the two are holding each other's hand and asks did they do you know. Lincoln is quick to dodge as Lydia does and state that they've been helping each other. Cleo rolls her eyes a bit annoyed at this, She takes her leave but tells them that M.A.L.I.C.E is not a group she works with happingly it's just a means to an end. She is however attacked by Truman who suspected that the two were getting trapped by her though she isn't fazed and shoots a water jet at the kid.

Lincoln helps Truman breath again and he explanis Cleo wasn't trapping them, but feels she has gone off the rails sadly. Lydia adds sadly that she doubled down on this. Ford, Larke, Bruce and Selina all arrive basically tipping the trio that it's time for their mission.

With Another spy mission in tow, The 7 work with Deathstroke and Selina to just that

After their sucessful attempt to stop Killan and the others spies. Lincoln, Lydia, Truman, Ford, Bruce, Selina, Larke, Deathstroke and Number 2 all discuss what they found about Killian, Cleo and what they found on the mission. Deathstroke tells the group that he was also in contact with the others and they are in Dreamland working on fighting an conspiracy against the Tiabeanie family. Deathstroke gives the info on Dreamland, while sending them off.

Lydia talks to Ford and Larke  wanting to explain the stones and how they managed to communicate with her. The 7 of them arrive at Luci's Inferno as they meet with the rest of the team to discuss their respective missions. Despite everyone other than Ford being underage, Luci shows disdain for this and lets them in. With Anne, Luz, Amanda, Sid, Ford Truman, Bruce, Larke, Hilda,  and Lydia all end up accidentaly discovering the stair case hidden by Luci, Bean and Elfo. To their shock apart from Hilda they discover it's a P.I Office

Chapter 3

Lincoln, Lydia, Ford, Amanda, Larke, Bruce, Anne, Luz, Sid, Truman and Hilda all investigate the office and observe the office realizing the P.I has really covered his tracks and it's just a simple office which is what they report to Bean, Lisa and Captain Hero.  Taking Bean's advice, they all head back to the castle to sleep for the night

At The Castle, Lydia, Lincoln, Ford, Hilda, Amanda, Larke, Anne, Luz, Bruce, Lisa all call up Deathstroke and report what they all did and what happened all of their ends and mentioning the P.I Office they found in Luci's Inferno which HIlda was aware of the detective but she wasn't aware the office was there

Deathstroke does mention ultimately that the P.I does work for him and the office he didn't know was there. He does mention that he has done some digging into the Nano Gauntlet and that Slade and Anti Cosmo made the Gauntlet. This confuses the others about what they know and Deathstroke explains that the duo made it somehow a long while ago to stop a bigger threat.

This makes Lydia think how the two got their hands on the stones which Deathstroke explains that it was some kind of heist he believes.

Later, Lydia talks with both Truman and Larke, Truman is suspcious that something  bigger is in play here and after talking to Lydia about Deathstroke employing P.I Anglesmith. He shares with Lydia and Larke that also it might be wise to do further checks on this Anti Cosmo and Slade as they made the weapon M.A.L.I.C.E is using.

Larke agrees with this assessment though she explain to both Truman and Lydia that Deathstroke already has Mike looking into it.

Lydia decided to tire herself by investigating Dreamland under cover and then sees find Lincoln investigating something and she decides to join him.Lincoln questions why she has another costume, Lydia states that with Nolan looking into her, she needs to change her wardrobe to keep him from truly knowing who she is. She also was attacked by some agent who while she surivied did get her flesh peirced and she had to get medical care.

Being informed of the alien, Lincoln is looking for the two decide to take a look into it. Lydia and Lincoln both end up going into a cave. Lincoln holds a flash light, with Lydia getting a stone ready into the gauntlet. Lincoln asks which one is she using and Lydia states the mind stone is her idea.

Lincoln and Lydia both find them hearing something and it turns out to be the alien which turns out to be a being that attempts to attack Lydia for some reason. It aims for spefically her leg where she got attacked earlier by Agent A. Lydia and Lincoln both engage against it with Lydia using the Mind Stones to stop it in place and then Lincoln throwing rocks at it which doesn't do much to the creature and even takes a picture

The Alien continues purusing them and Lydia eventually realizing she has to use the full extent of the Mind Stone does so and this dismantles it. Before they can investigate it further they are both placed in a bag and taken away from the scene

Both of the kids wake up in a custody room and wonder where the hell they are, they see Saul Goodman enter the room and Lincoln questions what is he doing here. Saul says he's here to do damage control as well as his P.I. He explains that both Him and Miss Pig Tails which resulting in Lydia giving Goodman a look are in FBI Custody and that they're here to make sure they don't get put away. Lydia asks Saul why would the FBI want with him, Saul states that he doesn't know exactly, but to follow his lead when the FBI Agents do come in questioning which Lincoln agrees

Mulder and Scully reveal that they have been tailing these aliens themselves and that M.A.L.I.C.E Has some hand in it according to what they have been investigating. Saul asks then why bag his cleints and Scully states it was the only way to get them out of danger due to Lydia's bleeding wound and that it was drawn to the blood. Scully reveals to the three that the alien is known as a Demogorgon.

Lincoln puts it together as well and realizes that explains things. Mulder asks the two to help them out in this investigation for M.A.L.I.C.E as they explain they are looking into the leader, Lydia and Linc are both confused as they suspect Cleo and Omni Man are the leaders and Scully states they're aqquaintces not the leaders as well the most promient and active of the group.

Lydia and Lincoln both see the stones once again trying to talk to Lydia which she answers. The Two hear from the stones that the gems that M.A.L.I.C.E are looking for are not from this universe but from the effects of another one that collided with this one. So they have no way where to relocate them. Lincoln questions how can't they and learns that they will see what they can do but tell Lydia to get close to the gems and their holder and they will find something.

Lincoln snuck in his phone and texts Kim to call him and Lydia later as he has something she will need to look into for them.

Saul comes in back in the room and Mike is with Saul. Mike reveals that the Nano Gauntlet was stolen from Gravity Falls and that he managed to find out that Sweet Pete was the one who found The Gauntlet which Toffee initally took from an hidden location, but the stones weren't how Toffee used their power which Lydia suspected . Saul stated to the kids that he managed to broke a deal with the agents

Before he can say, Mulder and Scully show up to Lincoln, Lydia, Saul and Mike  and state that they have been invaded and they'll handle this. It turns it's Martians from Mars invading with their fire power. Mike tells the kids to settle in as they're not safe until they get rid of these guys. Lydia decides to equip the stones on her gauntlets and go as well, despite Mike's protest.

Lincoln and Saul are both led out by Mulder and Scully as they have find any the Martians disintergrating a good deal of the agents. Though both Mike and Lydia do manage to kill a good deal of them with Mike's snipe skills and precison and Lydia using the mind, power, space and reality stone in conclusion by switching off from one to the another. Mike does tell her off for not following his warning.

As they are surrounded, Scully and Mulder both show up a car with Lincoln and Saul in it and Lydia and MIke get in with Mike managing to bruise their resistance. The Six discuss what they just saw and that  Scully reveals that the deal they made with the lawyer is that they'll work on investigating M.A.L.I.C.E and will keep a working arrangement with Team Free Will in turn for protection and that anything that either of them find, they report to them and them alone.

Lydia is esatic that Mulder believes her as well about the stones just like Lincoln, Truman and Ford. As everyone has theories, but don't completely belive her. Scully drops off the two and unkownist to them all, everyone is still sleeping, as this suprises the other two how long they were gone.

With Sid and some of the team go after King and Eclpisa's wand. Lydia, Lincoln, Ford, Amanda, Bruce, Anne, Bruce, Truman X, Ibuki, Selina, Bean, Captain Hero, Hilda all decide to head off to Amphibia and spefically they choose Wartwood. Arriving at the Plantar's house, they remeet Sprig and the rest of the team.

Lydia and Lincoln ponder about what they found out about the Gauntlet, the aliens and their encounter with Agents Mulder and Scully. She decides that getting Cleo to come to them would be a good idea and decide to work on her own plan to bait Cleo out. Bruce, Selina, Bean, Hero and Hilda join the duo in doing this as they all decide to work on some way to do just that

She suspects that if the infinity stones have the same source of power as the gems then she can use them to lure Cleo out, This gets skepticism from Bean and Selina, though Lydia states that they're exactly the same even they're can't locate the gems. Captain Hero is in agreeance and offers to help with this which Lydia nods in agreement.

Selina and Bean point out that Lydia's plan might be nuts but support this because it's their best choice. So as Captain Hero decides to put the plan to work. Lydia, Lincoln, Bruce, Hilda, Bean and Selina all decide to wait for this ploy to work.

Lincoln hears something and this directs both Hilda and Lydia to something and it's another kind of alien that he and Lydia saw. Bruce, Selina and Bean all look unnerved too as this. It The Demodogs that give chase to the 6. Lincoln asks Lydia if she is still bleeding, Lydia states she isn't and it may have been huting them. Hilda asks if Lincoln know what the monsters is, and Lincoln tells her they're aliens as they run

As they don't have any weapons they cant just attack the dogs, this forces Lydia to use the stones as Bean and Bruce try and push to her to so. Lydia states she has to wait, Hilda agrees with this as as she suspects those Demodogs aren't just any aliens.

Upon being cornered, Lydia decides to use the Reality Stone and uses fire to basically burn them alive. They all sigh and Bruce takes it that these aliens are weak to fire by the looks of it, He explains to the others that is what Darkblood was investigating

Lydia gives Lincoln to call up Mulder and Scully and tells them about their encounter with The Demodogs in private. Lydia calls Kim about the stone trigger and that if she found anything, Kim states that it defiently causes a sesmic trigger and that if Cleo caught it then that's the time to initalize her plan.

Lincoln, HIlda and Lydia discuss the alien attack as Hilda is a little suspicous of what the two know. Lydia explains it was a sci-fi encounter and Lincoln states that he saw an alien like that in Dreamland. Hilda believes Lincoln, but then they hear Nolan who keeps all 3 of them down in his hand.

Cleo arrives with Omni Man and Cleo tries to get the location of the 3rd gem out of her. Lydia states she has no idea, and she doesn't even know about the gems. Cleo states that Lydia is lying in the gem knowledge. Omni Man states this could be easily be avoided, if she just takes off her mask and reveal who she really is. Lydia refueses and Nolan states that her dad was a fool protecting her from him despite going back a while with him. Lydia asks what Nolan means and Nolan tells Lydia that Ford and him were once friends and went back a long time then Ford stop calling and writing.

She learns that Nolan has intentions to spare Ford from his Virtumie invasion as the only other human he truly respects. Lydia states she won't let him and uses the power stone on Nolan

Nolan and Lydia get into a fight as Lincoln and Hilda both pursue Cleo to try and stop her from getting another gem.

They have an intense fight as Lydia is using the Infinity Stones to keep up with Omni Man and even draws blood from the Virtumite and overpowers. She eventually tires out and Nolan takes the opporunity to see what's behind her mask and as the fact Lydia could fight the Virutmites and kill them with the stones means he can't take the risk. Bruce thankfully saves them and takes advantage of Nolan being tuckered out to find the others.

Lincoln and Hilda return to them to tell them that Cleo got another Infinity Gem, but Lydia states that she was still succession in her intention to get a close enough contact with the Nano Gauntlet so it isn't a complete loss. Hilda states it wasn't just those aliens it was another kind they saw and they killed one of M.A.L.I.C.E's own members.

Upon the whole crew getting back together, Lydia tells the team about her encounter with Cleo and Omni Man. Realizing M.A.L.I.C.E is full of spies, Lydia states that they should go back to her home universe as she happens to know a spy who can help out with this. Bean, Captain Hero and Lisa decide as a result to be honest with her and reveal that they actually did know about The Weirdmagedon Cult and that they worked with Slade, Anti Cosmo, Harrison, Luan and Bender to just that.

Lydia asks what else do they know?

Chapter 4

Lydia is meanwhile in bed tossing and turning a bit as she is having a thought about something that happened before hand. It's at Royal Woods and during a school day about it being Cousins Day. She and Lincoln talk about it and notices how sad Lincoln is, Lydia offers her cousin to Lincoln for the day and let her be the one without one. Lincoln states he'll be fine, but thanks her anyway. Lincoln is bullied by Chandler again about something random and Lydia looks annoyed at this. They go through the first half of the day and Lydia still has her cousin represent Lincoln on his turn as she is willing to take that for him.

Lincoln questions her on this and Lydia states she doesn't want him feeling left out. Lydia then asks about Linka again and is he still thinking about her. Lincoln admits yes but like Lydia told him in Loch Loud, it is getting easier to deal with it. Linc admits it feels better telling more people and being more open about everything, He still feels at his most comfortable when talking to Lydia about things though.

Lydia tells him after school, she'll take him for some Mac and Cheese Bites at his dad's restaruant or Chicken Nuggets if he wants, putting her hands behind her waist and leaning fowards at Lincoln. Lincoln is a little puzzled at first, but does smile and agrees that'll work.

Chandler shows up and teases Lincoln again, Lincoln tries to ignore him and Lydia tells Chandler to get lost. Chandler mocks Lincoln about not having a cousin and needing his girlfriend's cousin and that did his cousin hate him so much that she died, and states oh wait she did. Lydia is unquestionably furious at this and tells Lincoln to wait here and charges after him, she borrows a roller skate from a kid even giving some of her lunch money to use for something nice and approaches him.

Lydia yells at Chandler and smashes his head in with a rollerskate giving him a concussion and breaking his nose which leaves him screaming and crying at this. Lydia herself backs down in fear over what she did

This is when she wakes up screams, Lincoln is right there asking did she think about the Roller skate incident. Lydia states yes, Lincoln states it was the scream that got her wasn't it. Lydia states that she faced quite a bit of trouble for it, though Truman stepped in and got her out of trouble mostly as he did see Lydia do this, and played the other side of the arugment as Chandler did make it look like Lydia attacked him without reason. She admits she acts remarkably violent when she's pushed too far and that she was scared she could have killed him to protect Lincoln. Lincoln tells he doesn't feel emsacuiated by Lydia's protectiveness, Lincoln even mentions his parents said Lydia went to them about this after he went to the bathroom at his dad's restaruant.

Lincoln does say Lydia is still the coolest dorky girl in his book and that he always likes having her around, he almost says love but back pedals himself.Lydia does a similar thing and this is when Hilda shows up asking what are they doing?. Lydia states they're talking right and Lincoln says yes just talking about something Lydia had. Hilda with a raised eyebrow tells them well Ford, Truman, Larke, Anne and Luz are waiting for them which they do indeed do so ,

Ford, Truman, Larke, Anne, Luz , Lisa and the rest are all there waiting on Hilda, Lincoln and Lydia as they state they have found Flying Rhino and that they will be heading there next

Lincoln states he can't go to Canada for a long time because of what happened a bit ago, Lydia states that didn't stop her from sneaking him into Canada for Canada's Day to celebrate it with her family. Linc admits this. Lisa states that according to Lydia, Truman and Ford, that there is someone there that can help as a former spy of his own work. Truman states Lydia knows it is and she confers this.

Amanda tries to reach out to Lydia about what eating her up, Anne and Luz state that they have this under control, though Amanda isn't convinced. Amanda talks to Lydia about is eating her up and she admits she went out of control before hand when it came to a bully and bashs his head in with a rollerskate and that she did that without the gauntlets and Lydia doesn't want to be some kind of dangerous vilgante or something. Amanda admits she's been there herself, Unlike Lydia, Amanda says she embraced her violent side but is more reserved than she used to be and that she had to learn this because of Finn's death had her leashing out at the world until she meet Ibuki who she took  under her wing and transformed the young ninja into her apprentice. Amanda looks proud as she statse it and that she grew to love her as well. Lydia catches this and asks if Amanda is and Amanda states she just did realize it. Amanda says being reserved can help achieve peace, Lydia is protective over Lincoln because he is the one she loves  most just like her with both Finn and Ibuki, so she gets it. Lydia thanks her in turn for this.

Lisa and Captain Hero both oversee the travel there and Lincoln, Lydia, Ibuki, Truman, Bruce and Selina all discuss and talk about what the intent is here. Lydia states that she needs to go back home at least for a little bit and that's why she suggested going back to Junior High to see her janitor who she knows is a spy. Truman questions why it is called that and asks does a Rhino actually have a principal's job

Lincoln states yes that is indeed true. Ibuki comments she heard crazier. Lydia says she will also have to call up her friends maybe too as she explains that the school did have some kind of machine that was operated by Earl P Sidebottom which was able to turn the school into anything real like the ocean, a solar system or even the time of the dinosaurs

Larke and Truman both give glances to this if that is possible, Lydia states she'll show them when they get there. Bruce asks Lincoln about his contact with Kim and Lincoln states Truman and Larke were right, Cleo did visit her but left her unharmed which he can believe as they're sisters. Selina is skeptical unlike them and thinks something may have went down, Bruce questions this. Selina states that why would she do so, and It's not like Cleo is stupid and proably knows they're bugging her.

Lydia enterains this theory and decides to place a call to a friend of hers. Ibuki decides to pratice her ninja training again as Larke gets a punching bag to join Ibuki. Lincoln, Truman, Bruce and Selina ask Lisa and Hero on how's it going

In the lab, Truman has the Infinity Stones and Gauntler with Lincoln and Lydia as the 3 decide to look into what Lydia attempted to do in regards to Cleopatra. Lincoln unsure about letting Truman on this asks Lydia on the reason for it, as he isn't familiar with them like the two of them are. Lydia explains to Lincoln her intent is to have him do so , as it's in part to Nolan Greyson and how he could get info out for Ford possibly.

Truman with his technical work manage to make a connection to the stones. Lydia, Truman and Lincoln all manage to see the stones again and this is when Lincoln makes the question about the Gems as Lydia did make contact with Cleo. The three learn that the Infinity Gems came from an another multiverse that opened up due to someone's meddling with The streams between multiverses.

Lydia questions this as she didn't know about such things, She is then told that this has happened and at least 6 times as of late. Lincoln and Truman ponder on this and Lincon has the theory that maybe the President knew about this, Truman disconfirms this and states that it's not like he made the Nano Gauntlet either

This is confirmed when the three are told that The Nano Gauntlet was created by a scientist from another Earth, and his 2 associates in the names of Wilson and Cosma. As for the Gems, they came into the dimension on the 1st time it was brought over. Lincoln and Lydia both ask each other about and both come up with on the spot that Slade, Anti Cosmo and Harrison Wells were the ones who made it. Truman asks them on this and Lydia tells him that she knows them though isn't that familar with them though Hero, Lisa and Bean were. Lincoln is stuck on the Gems thing and asks who opened the streams the first time, and is told that was the one instance of 6 where it wasn't the same.

Lydia asks what is the next step in all this, and is told that considering M.A.L.I.C.E has half of the gems, it must be wise to get the other half to force a stalemate and regarding the 1st dimension breach it may be best to investigate and learn about it from whoever knows about it best or something as this is something even they have limited knowledge on.

Truman, Lincoln and Lydia brainstorm on this and Truman asks to the two if they think it's an good idea to find one of the gems and study it to find out more. Lydia states it's isn't a bad play though it won't tell them about who dimenison traveled the 1st time and Truman admits this. Lincoln adds to the conversation and states that they can ask Deathstroke afterwards which they agree to.

Lisa decides to take the lead and leads Lydia, Lincoln, Luz, Anne, Hilda, Molly, King, Sid and Truman into Flying Rhino and asks Lydia if this where she went. Lydia states yes, though as she notes it looks a lot less lively when she was there. Lisa and Truman both exchange some looks that say "really".

The kids reach the enterance and to their suprise the doors aren't locked. Anne finds this susipcious as does Molly that the doors were left open. Lydia sees that her former school has been abdadonned and she is disbelief about what happened, Hilda recongizes that it looks like no one has been here for a while, as she blows dust off a locker.

Lincoln asks Lydia was the school like this before she left, and Lydia states no it was the way it was always was.

Lincoln and Lydia both hear their names being called and Lydia knows exactly who it is. It's none other than Marcus who is behind both of them. The two hug and state that it's been so long since they seen each other. Truman is suspcious though Lincoln is just happy to see a friend. Lincoln and Marcus then do their own hand shake afterward. Lincoln asks what is he doing here?

Marcus tells Lincoln, that Lydia called him as well and states they're coming here. Lydia asks him about what happened at Flying Rhino. Marcus states it's a long story and he'll tell them as he takes them to Burford's house

Marcus explains as they are all on their way that ever since Earl P Sidebottom was killed, suspcion aroused at the school. Lydia clarifies to her friends that he was the guy that antagonized her and her friends there and he did so over a D Grade. Marcus then states that at first it was discrete until they found some more major things like a talking experimented rat. Lydia, Lincoln, Luz, King, Anne, Molly and Sid all look nervous as they know they're talking about Raticus who Lydia took with her on the move and left it Loch Loud with Angus. Lydia comes out and says she was hiding him in Royal Woods and then Loch Loud.

Then they did more digging up according to Marcus, and they found a reality changing machine and a lot of toxic, nuclear and radioactive activity there. The Team other than Truman and Lisa is shocked at this, as the two of them find that pretty cool and could be used for their science endeavors. Anne says to Lydia in retrospect it was the best thing Lydia could have done to have her parents move out of here.

Luz asked what happens to him and Marcus states that he had to be hopsitalized due to some kind of bacterial infection or around that. Lydia mentions nothing happened to her as is Marcus stated then she was the only student not to have anything happen to her and asks if she's safe in Royal Woods. Lydia states physically yes and mentally for the most part, as she states she is made of sterner stuff than people think.

Lydia, Lincoln, Sid, Anne, Luz, Molly, King, Lisa Loud Marcus, Hilda and Truman all arrive at Bufrod's house and upon knocking on the door. Burford is surpised to see Lydia and Marcus and that they are the first kids he's seen since what happened with Flying Rhino.

Lydia asks for his help regarding M.A.L.I.C.E. as they're a spy organzation and she figured he could help. Burford admits it was a long time ago but he still has it, he does keep his eyes alert to see if anyone is around before letting them

Everyone questions that the janitor is a literal swine apart from Lydia, Marcus and Lincoln. Marcus tells the Flying Rhino name comes from a principle which the others realize Lydia was being literal.

Truman admires how impressive Burford seems to be and admires how smart he was on this, he even states he is a spy himself .Burford actually believes Truman on this and states that before hand he was investgating things on his own accord. The others ask and Burford reveals the Halverston and Area situation and he recalls he saw Hilda with a robot and a blue hologram.

Lydia, Lincoln and the others look at Hilda saying what she knows with the two he saw. Hilda tells the others about her time working with the president and that they went through dimenisons with her friends to try and find someone that is where she met Bean and Hero.

Burford is briefed by Lydia, Lincoln, Sid, Lisa, King and Truman about their sitation and Burford gives a tracker device for gems like this. Lydia and King asks where did he get it and Burford says he has ways to the girl. Truman asks to borrow some of his tools and he does so with Lincoln and Sid deciding to take a few themselves.

King and Lydia show him the Infinity Stones and that Burford recongizes them and reveals he knew Lydia had them the whole time and kept an eye on her before the move in regards to that. He tells them if there is an alternate mutliverse with items from there then the stones can attract the alternate dimensions and that Lydia can use the one there to see where. Lisa agrees with this as they obeserve this

Lydia nods and asks the others to move out and the Janitor joins them. Truman goes to the car and hands all the tools they have to the rest of the team.

Lisa runs a check on the Infinity Stones with the Gauntlet on Lydia and learns that the Mind, Reality and Space Gems have already being claimed by Cleo. Lisa points a stalemate will be needed to keep M.A.L.I.C.E in place. The team is in agreeance on this. Lincoln asks Lisa which Gem is around here and Lydia states with those gems out it'll be one of the other 3 ones.

Sid, King and Molly decide to go see Lincoln, Lydia and Lisa on what they found. Lisa finds out that the gem that is here is the Soul Gem. Lydia tells them how dangerous it is and arguably the most unique one, she explains it needs a safrice or something like that. Selina overhears and states did Cleo safrcie her own sister to attempt to get it. Lydia shakes her head, saying if that was possible, they still wouldn't have an contact with Kim.

Lydia afterwards spots something and goes after it. This is noticed by Lincoln who asks her what she is doing, Lydia tells Lincoln she senses something like what he saw in Dreamland it may be related to the Demogorodn or the Upside Down as Mulder put it to her. Lincoln understands this and asks where are they even, Lydia tells him Hawkins and that he is looking into the aliens there as they seem to have orginated there.

Lincoln and Lydia both are stopped by Truman and Marcus, Lydia tells them that the two need to hunt something that she saw. Truman tells Lydia he's coming with her as he is not leaving either her or Linc alone. Lincoln agrees and Marcus is coming too to help out

So the 4 of them set off and Lincoln tells Truman and Marcus about what they saw in the alien in Amphibia and Dreamland that he and Lydia saw and pursued. Truman states how do they know this and Lincoln tells Truman he can't reveal who as that was part of an agreement made. Marcus asks about what agreement like a legal agreement. Lincoln nods at this and Lydia states that this is something that more than the 4 of them are looking into but it goes up further than even they know.

Lydia, Lincoln, Truman and Marcus all proceed further and leading them is Truman and Lydia holding a weapon and the Infinity Gauntlet, with Lincoln and Marcus in the back with Lincoln equipped with a weapon of his own and Marcus tracking the weird spots in the ground.

Lincoln says whatever this thing it ain't a demogrogon but it may be worse like they just faced a foot solider and not the real threat. This thought scares Lydia realziing that for how much Demodogs and Demogrogons they faced that was low level for them. Truman asks Lincoln what could it possibly be

Marcus scanning the area saying that it looks like something is being felt here and it ain't good. Truman, Lincoln and Lydia ask about what it is, Marcus asks Lydia about the spider she had. Lydia is referring to Slivia, her pet spider and ask did it feel cringey at any time. Lydia says it never did, so Marcus has to so say that there is a giant like spider like creature

Marcus scanning the area saying that it looks like something is being felt here and it ain't goodLydia asks about it and why so spefic, Lincoln can tell quick and knows those marks are spider like marks and Truman is pretty much ready to open fire on it as soon as he fires at it.

Lincoln and Lydia send a text to Mulder and Scully saying that may have seen something that they need to know.

As Lincoln, Lydia, Marcus and Truman continue their investigation, they go further into a cave and begin noticing the disturbing foot prints and see some corpse. This unsettles the 4 of them resepcitvely this is when they see something,

It's a spider monster with an assemblage of bodily tissues with bones belonging to the creature’s victims jutting out from various parts of its body, an elongated head and six legs that branched off to form several and prehensile tentacles that it used for offensive attacks, one of which could extend from the monster’s mouth. The maw of the creature was filled with circular rows of jagged "teeth".

Lincoln, Lydia, Truman and Marcus all look really terrffied and freak out. This creature tries to attack the 4 of them and they all fight off against it though it's barely does much as this thing is so alien like and powerful

Lydia notes that this was from The Upside Down like was said, and using the Power and Mind Stones manages to hold off better than the rest of the team as it tries to use telepathy on them and Lydia fights it off with ease. Lincoln, Truman and Marcus all  manage to be freed from it by Lydia

Lincoln and Truman attack it too with heat based weaponry with Marcus as Lydia does state that if it's part of the Upside Down, Heat can hurt it. Which they all do, though the tenacles and appendages do manage to hold them now.

Realzing they are going to be taken down if not careful, Lydia uses the Reality Stone to get everyone out which they do, though they are constantly being chased by The Mind Flayer due it's own Dimensional Manipulation/Reality Warping meaning the 4 must keep running to keep it from killing them

As the 4 of the kids try to escape the Mind Flayer which is implacable despite how much the 4 of them use heat weapons and the Inifinty Stones. Lydia uses the Mind Stone to attack it with this tenatacle

The Mind Flayer then attacks Marcus and truamtizes him and tortures him which leads to the other 3 attacking THe Mind Flayer and saving him though The three of them are still unsure what happened in turn as Lydia decides to use the SPace, Mind and Reality Stone all at once to escape the dimenison they were trapped in

The Mind Flayer is unable to follow them in turn, and that where Lydia, Truman, Marcus and Lincolin escape with Lydia being very wore out from the use of 3 at once and Marcus feeling like crap. Truman keeps his eye on Marcus and tries to help him,

Lydia asks Lincoln did he take a picture and he states of course he did it and he'll show when he get a hold of them next

Lydia tries to call Kim again though gets Ford and is told exactly what happened, horrifying her. Lydia asks can Ford and Amanda get her there. Lincoln and Truman ask what happened, and Lydia tells them what happened to the Setori Family

However A Spider monster similar to the hopsital monster ambuss Truman, Lincoln, Lydia and and an unconsciousness Marcus and the team is tired from their encounter so it looks they're in trouble

.However it is sniped by a moltov cocktail by MIke who learned about the call Lincoln tried to make to Mulder and he tells them this as he tells them to get in

Mike tells Lincoln, Lydia and Truman that he was tracking that kid's mom in tangem with Mulder and Scully under Deathstroke and Saul. Lydia asks Mike how long has he been doing it, and Mike states for a while and that Deathstroke will be visiting them and with his alien agent who he has on his team.

Lydia asks what's next and Mike states he's dropping them back with the other kids and that CIA Pig Agent. Lincoln and Lydia are told by Mike exactly what he learned and investigated from M.A.L.I.C.E as well as what he learned in Hawkins.

Sid, Hilda, King, Anne, Luz, Molly, Bruce, Selina, Tuesday, Larke, Bean and Ibuki are all waiting for Lydia, Lincoln, Truman and Marcus to get back to them as the adults are busy as Ford told them respectively in a call of their own. A Cool Car pulls up and it's Mike who drops off Truman, Lydia and Lincoln and tells them to wait up for him at the hopsital as he delivers Marcus to the inffirmary and Lydia noticing Burford is down a bit too and asks Mike to take him there too and Mike agrees and drives off.

Ford arrives telling Lincoln, Lydia, Hilda, Sid and King about Cleo and Kim and what happened. The 5 are shocked at exactly what happened to the Setori Family in regards to viruses and mapulation of them at the hands of someone they are unaware of.

Ford, Lincoln, Lydia, Hilda, Sid and King head off. Lincoln is trying to put things together about what he was told. He asks Ford about what he suspects this with Ford saying that no one infects themselves knowingly to kill their parents unless there is a turbelnet relationship. Lydia herself knows the truth and that she explains the soul gem is acquired differently from the others and needed a safrice. The others question her on this and Lincoln explains that someone was trying to set Cleo up to get it somehow and upon being given a picture by Ford.

Hilda, Sid and King all look too with Lydia and Ford and Hilda praises Lincoln's analysis as usual and offers to help him look into it. Lincoln states he has Lydia, but HIlda can help if she wantsSid wonders what Cleo was doing to Kim to clarify it as saving her life, King states maybe she was really trying to save her sister. Sid, Lydia and Lincoln all believe this due to their faith in her.

Lincoln, Lydia, Sid, Hilda and King all join Ford and Amanda at the Setori House as Ford shows them what happened to Mr and Mrs.Setori with Amanda warning them that it's graphic. deducts that Cleo wasn't who killed them and it was a indirect murder in regards to interaction.

Ford and Lydia both ask what he means, Lincoln tells the two that it was skin interaction and that she had something in her that was used to transfer a bodly virus or something from her to them. Lydia questions selective and who do that, Hilda is in agreeance on this as it does feel kinda odd. Hilda and Lydia both find the same cigarette that Lincoln did and they look at the brand and it's Moley. Hilda calls smoking a disgusting habit which Lydia agrees on and only she has no issue when it comes to her old friend Bender with his cigars. Hilda states that' s pretty myopic to only not have an issue with a robot smoking cigars

Ford, Lydia, Lincoln, Eclpisa, Amanda and Hilda all observe the crystal caccoon and state that it will eventually break as Amanda. Lincoln, Hilda and a tired Lydia all observe some cracks of their own beginning to show on the caccoon. Lincoln noticing Lydia to sleep or something as all that use of the stones has left her a bit too tired, Lydia tries to assure Lincoln she can still stand and all. Ford isn't buying this and tells her to just lie down or eat something while they see this through.

Lincoln goes to see Lydia who is basically stuffing her face with meatloaf and KD and Lincoln states does she feel better. Lydia states much, as she needed to eat to recharge herself. Lincoln tells Lydia that Kim seems like a metahuman according to Ford and he  states Cleo was trying to save her sister and maybe give her a chance to surive in her new planned world and to save someone in her family after what happened. Lincoln asks if she is okay, regarding what happened, Lydia knowing she can't lie to Lincoln states she has become troubled about everything recent that has happened as of late and is trying to make sense of things.

Lincoln sees she needs something and decides to put a water gun in his back and soaks Lydia in the back, laughing as he does it. Lydia shoots a quick and very suspcious smile back and takes a super soaker of her own and sprays Lincoln laughing back. The two get in a water fight consisting of water balloons and super soakers with big smiles on their faces as they do thankfully no one is around to see it.

After a 10 minute face off, they stop and just laugh lying down together and call a truce. Lydia thanks Lincoln for reminding her she's still a fun loving kid, Lincoln states Lydia does that for him as the two smile at each other. Lincoln gets a phone call from Scully and Mulder.

Mulder apologizes to Lincoln about not getting back to him and tells him and Lydia of what they encountered and both him and Scully tell the two what they found on what Lincoln told him. Mulder tells Lincoln and Lydia that what they encountered was the Mind Flayer and it's the most dangerous resident of The Upside Down that spawned the Demogrodon

Scully notices what the two were doing and asks what were the kids exactly doing. Lydia states doing what kids doing, having a fun a water fight. Scully then asks then what's with the hand holding, Lincoln states they were having a truce. Lydia asks again about the Flayer and Mulder states that they might be aware of who is behind this, he asks about a Mortley Cigarette as a calling card. Lincoln states he saw one and Lydia picked it up, Mulder tells them that they may be dealing with an enemy of theirs it seems. Lincoln states this makes too much sense that it's an enemy of Mulder and Scully and Lydia thinks on who could it possibly be before resuming her eating with both the kids sitll holding each other's hand until they sit down as Lincoln watchs concerned for Lydia, as while he knows now what's up, he feels something is going down even more than he realized.

Chapter 5

Lydia is awake and she is communicating with Mulder and Scully as she better keep her senses sharp about the Flayed as Marcus could be in real danger and that the president has an eye on the hopsital like Mike insisted. She agrees and tells the two they split the group to find the 5th gem. They tell her that they inspect someone they know is behind M.A.L.I.C.E but they can't tell her who as it's FBI info.

Lydia is a bit miffed why the agents aren't telling her this despite swearing her to secretly when Lincoln accidentaly startles her with breakfast. Lincoln apologizes and hands her the plate and they discuss Lydia's talk with the agents and Kim's powers. Lincoln notices she sleep well last night, Lydes admits she cleared her head and just went to bed like it was nothing. As he sits next to her, Lincoln states that they sent the others have the 5th gem to get Cleo and the others off their trail and asks about the stones. Lydia stated the stones stated that Colrado is where the 5th one is but there is no idea where though, she did also overhear that they could use the power of the stones to beat Cleo if possible, Lincoln adds with 4 people as well. Lydia doesn't know what he means initally until she realizes he means him

Lincoln states Lydia doesn't get him so well in a jokingly fashion, Lydia catches this and state that she thought she was doing well considering how long they know each other. Lincoln asks how much time did she need and Lydia states from where's she sitting a life time. Lincoln smiles and states that's the right answer as he affectionally boops Lydia on the nose who smiles warmly back.

Unknownigly to both of them, they more lean in and just about to kiss until Ford, Truman, Kim, Anne and Luz all enter and state they're on the way to something, a way to test Kim's new powers and possibly go looking for other stuff relating to M.A.L.I.C.E . Ford asks if he was interupting and both of them state nothing.  Afterwards, Anne is just unimpressed and points out those two are terrible liars as those two were looking like they were going to kiss each other. Luz states and Lincoln states that Bruce and Selina's kissing feels like face huggers as did Lydia.

Lincoln asks Lydia what exactly they were doing and Lydia states they were playing with each other with Lincoln boobbing her on the nose and exchanging their own conversation.  Lincoln states that was exactly what they were doing and it did get  pretty up and close.

Lincoln, Truman and Lydia all are steaking out and obserivng the Millers, Professor Malestrom, Killian, Archdruidness Sweet Pete, The Ys, Steelbeak and noticing that they are talking with Nolan when it comes to the plan. The three find out Mr. X betrayed them and has been co-operating with the president.

Lincoln asks who is the Smoking Man to Lydia and Truman, Lydia states all she knows it's a guy who smokes and Truman says of course it's someone. Lincoln thinks back as does Lydia and Truman and Lincoln has an eruka moment.

Lincoln realizes that this man might be who invaded the Setori House and orchestrated the deaths of Cleo's family. Truman and Lydia both agree with this assessment though the three wonder why would CSM go after his own allies if Cleo and Nolan are on the same side as him. Lydia thinks to herself if this is the man that Mulder and Scully were talking and it can only be

Lincoln decides to purse the matter with Lydia and Truman with the latter equipping himself and Lincoln with their own weapons. The three sneak along to go after the spies

Truman, Lincoln and Lydia are all sneaking around and Lydia calls Ford stealthfully and suspects Nolan is trying to stall them which Ford agrees with and he warns the trio not to let Nolan catch them as he knows Nolan does have an idea they're around. Lydia agrees and holds up the stones.

Truman tells the two that he thinks that they have been spotted and The Ys and The Millers are there pointing their weapons at them. The Ys and The Millers decide to bring them in which Lincoln decides to play along and let them be caught.

Nolan, Archdruidness, Malestrom, Steelbeak, Killina and Sweet Pete all watch as the agents bring them in as Nolan suspected alright. Lincoln points his weapon at Nolan and shoots him, Nolan finds this amusing and Lydia then uses the Mind Stone to push them all out of the way. The spies take out their weapons and engage against Truman, Lydia and Lincoln

Sweet Pete and Steelbeak both work to bring the trio with their power and strength, the three hold them off. Truman asks who should deal with these guys and Lydia decides to be who. Equpping the power stone she makes herself nearly untouchable and doesn't exert herself that much against both of them. Lincoln and Truman want to help, though Lydia states that they need to find out what M.A.L.I.C.E is up to.

Ford finds Lydia, Lincoln and Truman and tells them what happened with Nolan. He is however happy to state he has found Nolan has a weakness to heat as well. Ford explains Nolan did this to them and notes as well Nolan wasn't trying to kill the three despite it though and even advised a hopsital. Ford states the Soul Stone will work, Lydia hands Ford the stone and Ford states Lydia should do it. Lincoln explains that they can proably stop Cleo with the stones, but Lydia can't do it with all of them in her gauntlet and that they need others to use them too. Ford recultant agrees and does use the Soul Stone.

Luz and Anne both want to be part of Lydia's plan to take Cleo using the stones as Lincoln and Ford are in on this it seems. Lydia agrees and states of course, she does needs to find one last person and doesn't want to risk Truman. Truman understands and he states that he can contribute by making them, she agrees

Lydia, Lincoln, Truman, Luz and Anne leave with Kim asking Ford is she supposed to be a weapon for Ford to beat Nolan.

Chapter 6

Ford gets Communcation with Agnet Bishop about heading to Moose Jaw and the teams discuss what they saw on their side.

Lincoln decides he has enough and is going to go after Royal Woods himself and says screw it he's going to Royal Woods regardless and do what's right, heading off. Lydia raises her eyebrow at this, knowing why he's doing so as the others discuss this.

Lincoln states to monlogue about his upcoming mission and when he must do to save his city from the evils that he is opposing when Lydia states not without a faithful partner will he suceed. Lincoln asks Lydia what she heard, Lydia states everything and that Lincoln is being such a dork but endearingly so and Lincoln states it takes one to know one. Lydia says touche to this while both smile at each other. Lincoln and Lydia both claming Royal Woods to be home and that it's essential for them to both be involved. Lydia questions that Lincoln will be ready for this mentally in regards to his family with she suspects rightfully considering Linka. Lincoln states he went screw it when  he thought about his family and that he did talk to the others on this.

Lincoln asks about Lydia's agressive tendencies and recalls back to her protectiveness over him, Truman and Ford, Lydia states she's only doing so to protect her friends  and that she has the stones and that Lydia was told by them to keep them away from M.A.L.I.C.E as even if they do get the last gem, as long as they still have the stones that they have a chance and knowing what Lydia can do against Nolan's race and others she could be used as leverage they won't be targetting Lincoln other than The Millers if she sticks by him. Lincoln reminds her about Morag who went from going after Lincoln to going after both Lincoln and Lydia overtime so it's not guarenteed

Lydia states that they're great when together and that even so the two of them can at least do some damage. Lincoln agrees and tells Lydia as they head off that she brings the best out in him and believes it's mutual which Lydia nods at and praises him for showing real initation.

After being snapped to Royal Woods, Lincoln and Lydia both consider if they should use the car or just bike. Lincoln states he wants to use the bike as it's conspcious and Lydia gets Lincoln's bike there and Lincoln takes his bike with Lydia holding on as the two bike to Lincoln's house. As they both do so, Lincoln is quick to notice how empty Royal woods is as does Lydia who asks if Royal Woods is livelier than this. Lincoln states it usually is. Lydia points to the house, Lincoln parks it and the two enter The Loud House and see it's deserted, broken glass, blood and full of alien appendages.

As Lydia and Lincoln both continue look through the house, they see a rat going through pain and they watch it blow up and form into some kind of moving mass. This naturally freaks out both of them, Lydia asks what the hell was that and Lincoln can only answer a rat blown up.

This is when Marcus as well as the Louds show up and act strangely that it's so nice to see Lincoln and Lydia. Lincoln asks Lydia does Marcus know where she lives, Lydia states he did know about Royal Woods just not here. Lydia asks the Louds if they are fine and use the envidence of the broken house to bluff them. Lincoln realizes something is up with them indeed as his folks and Marcus are both speaking not that human like and Lydia agrees. Lincoln asks for the power stone and Lydia hands it and he attacks his family and Marcus

Lincoln is proven right as they retract more hostility, and even  melt into a sludge of raw materials that  shapes into a monstrous form.. Lincoln and Lydia both are down right terrifed of what they just saw. Lincoln asks what Lydia saw and what happened to them, Lydia thinks back of their previous encounter with the Mind Flayer with Truman and Marcus and realize that Marcus was poseessed by The Mind Flayer. Lincoln then asks about the family, Lydia states that The Mind Flayer infected them. Then The Demorgon again shows up to corner the two, Lydia asks Lincoln didn't they fry it. Lincoln states that it must be another one and DemoBats and Demon Dogs show up. Lincoln and Lydia both are cornered by this and Lydia hands Lincoln one of the infinity gauntlers and the stones. Lincoln agrees and both of them use the stones to attack them though Lincoln and Lydia try not to hurt either of their loved ones. They both run out scared as the rest of The Upside Down citizens chase them.

Lincoln and Lydia are being pursued by the merging monster of Lincoln's family and Marcus, The Demogorgon, The Demo dogs and Bats and they run for their lives. Lydia asks if Lincoln wants to use the bike, Lincoln states the spy car will work for now. Lydia states she will drive this time and hands Lincoln a water gun. Lincoln asks what will this do, Lydia states just use it

Lincoln does just that as he attacks more Demogorgon bats, dogs and damages the flayed monster. Lydia decides to use the time stone as they keep running to escape the Upside Down creatures

Lincoln is relieved they are fine and decides to stop for breakfast somewhere and Lydia agrees though Lincoln is a bit numb over what happened to his family as Lydia asks about his state of mind and he states he shocked about that. Lydia concedes it's wierd but maybe some breakfast will get his mind off of it for a while.

At a Diner, Lincoln and Lydia both have grand slams in front of them and they eat away at it. Lydia asks Lincoln is he really okay after what he just saw and how soon this was from Linka. Lincoln states he proably is fine, Lydia knows Lincoln is lying and states the truth is what she needs. Lincoln states he mostly is, but dealing with this so soon after that is a bit much, he asks if there is something wrong with him

Lydia states nothing is wrong with him, it has to do with the trauma that could have a lasting impact on how his body responds to stress and it effects development  and their experiences have been subjecting him to harmful amount of stress and affects his ability to respond to different kinds of stress healthfully and that he's been dealing with real threats just like her before his teen years and that his body is repsonding to minor threats like his life is always in danger.

Lincoln asks why did the doctor say that, Lydia states because he was able to notice and told her in confidence. Lincoln states he wasn't feeling stressed at that moment though, Lydia adds at that moment he wasn't but Stress is more managable when people you can trust help them through it. Lincoln states and Lydia is the one person he could trust at that moment, with Angus and Hilda being the other ones, Lydia asks can he trust the others?. Lincoln states yes, but she's still the person he trusts the most

Lydia states and that's why she tagged along, she knew something like this would happen. Lincoln asks if Lydia isn't stressed herself and notes she has been at times pretty darn agressive to people who anger her.

Noting himself, Truman and Ford as examples, where Lydia has done something rather agressive whether they're insulted or threatened. Lydia states Ford is her hero, Truman is one of her best friends and Lincoln himself is her partner. Lincoln states Lydia got mocked for considering Ford her Hero on a historical figure project and purposely critiqued on calling her father a hero by Chandler. In turn, Lydia socked Chandler straight in the crotch even though the teacher said it was okay. Lincoln mentions in Truman's case, he was mocked by a girl and destoryed a invention for his science project and Lydia ended up tying her shoes to cause to her fall over after glass. And Lincoln mentions lastly Lydia bashing Chandler's head with a rollerskate breaking his nose splitting his face open and giving him a concussion.

Lincoln says he loves that Lydia is so protective regarding them, but does worry that Lydia may take it too far and will pay consequecnes with the law, and that Lincoln's case especially showcased this, he does give Lydia a fair reasoning that he was having his trauma buttton and Lydia wasn't going to let Chandler get away with that

Lydia states that as much as she adjust to normal life, her mind has been stuck on how to react to adventures and antagonstic people. She is worried herself by her own tendencies and the people she cares most, she acts the most violent towards those who hurt or insult them.

Lincoln states that that can be worked on afterwards, but now they need to discuss their plans at that they need to figure out the Mind Flayer and how it found Royal Woods and assimlated a good deal of the town into the Flayed. Lydia states that she last saw it with tentacles and appendanges so it makes no sense it would attack with proxities if it wants to kill them. Lincoln states maybe it's about hunger, or building to something but he doesn't know to stop it.

Lydia states he proably does, Lincoln and her both noticed the Demogorgon don't like heat, maybe The Flayer is the same. Lincoln asks and maybe water, Lydia asks how he is so sure. Lincoln states it makes sense, if The Upside Down ditizens don't like heat, then they like cold and water doesn't have to be cold. Lydia nods and smiles that's how you use your head. Lincoln and Lydia both think together and think how it flayed others

Lincoln shows that The Flayed have a craving for random things like fertilizer and cleaning fluids, ammonia appearing to be the common factor to allow more control or doing some face hugger stuff. Lydia asks how he knows this, Lincoln states it's typical sci-fi stuff and he saw cleaning fluids and fertizer out on the open. Lydia states that water and heat weapons will do it and uses the reality stone to bring them out.

Lincoln and Lydia both have finished up and Lincoln has the wheel with Lydia in the passenger's seat. Both have their heat and water weapons as they get ready to attack the Demobats, Demodogs, Demogorgon and Upside Down Ditizens. Lincoln tells Lydia to take it easy on their friends that have been flayed. Lydia states that won't be easy as if the Mind Flayer is doing what he said that they have already be assembled into a body so it will be unavoidable. Lincoln concedes and states they're not going back home as The Mind Flayer will know this and he is aware it can think despite being a monster.

Lincoln and Lydia both stop as soon as they see the Upside Down Monsters and both go chasing after them. Lydia gets the water weapons and Lincoln has the heat weapons and the Demo Bats and Demo Dogs start to attack them. Lincoln does hand Lydia a heat weapon to save the water weapon for the Flayer. And the two engage in their own fight with the monsters in droves while keeping each other's back guarded from them though they both take some cuts of their own do the numbers

Using the stones to heal their injuried they continue to go through Royal Woods to attack the upside down inhabitants.  This is when the Demogorgon shows up trying to attack them and Lydia and Lincoln both fry it though it takes both of them to fry it at the same time. And it still is kicking to their shock. Lincoln and Lydia state what kind of Demogrogon can take that, Lincoln states he is not so sure but they can outrun it which they do heading into the school

In Lincoln's school the two go around cautious and careful and this is when a tentacle breaks the glass and the two are a little shocked what it could be and it's The Mind Flayer in physical form and this makes both Lydia and Lincoln utterly as it's made of the pulverized corpses of rats and humans. Lincoln states yeah he was right, Lydia realizes her parents are part of it and looks freaked. Lincoln shakes her out of it and states that the only way to save them is perserve and takes out some fire works and lits them to bother the Mind Flayer

Lydia sprays it with water causing it some pain to reel back and Lincoln gets back in the car and they drive around it attacking the beast with a water fire combination. While it does sustain damage it still keeps after them and attacks the car sending both of them flying. Lydia equips the infinty stones ready to attack it and ready to use all six of them despite Lincoln's warnings.

This is when The Mind Flayer gets heated intensely by Mulder, Scully, Welton and Agent Bishop who show up to see Lincoln and Lydia. Mulder asks what the two were doing, Lincoln states he had his family to save and doesn't want to lose them just like Linka. He sympathizes and understands this need. Lydia states she was ready to go all throttle on the Mind Flayer, Welton states that would kill it but would kill her too or wound her severly. Agent Bishop states Deathstroke is looking for them and that they need to come back to them.

Lydia, Lincoln, Mulder, Scully, Welton and Agent Bishop return to Deathstroke, Saul and Mike who have interrograted Odival about his knowledge. Odival reveals that he doesn't know M.A.L.I.C.E's real boss but he does know that the Mind Flayer can be stopped but it has to lose control of it's proxy body and he knows how.

Deathstroke asks how and why?, Odival states he's doing this to get revenge on The Arch Drudiness and M.A.L.I.C.E. He doesn't care if the heroes win he just wants the villains to lose and tells them there is a psychic connection to it and Lydia realizes it's Marcus, and doesn't want to kill him. Odival states the host doesn't have to be killed but freed from it's influence, he states gas can help there and setting it aflame.

Odival is though impaled by The Mind Flayer on CSM"s orders for giving out info to Lincoln as he wants to keep Lincoln from finding out the truth

Lincoln and Lydia despite their amonisty are sypmathetic to his death, though Deathstroke's assocaites state that they have their info and that they can use it now to save their families and friends. Mulder does comfort them agreeing to this.

However a snapping is heard and this is when Lincoln, Lydia, Deathstroke, MIke, Saul, Bishop, Welton, Mulder and Scully all realize Cleo has stolen the stones and now has used them. Saul is first to be dusted and Lydia uses the stones and their full power to keep the others safe from being snapped after realizing what's going on. Lincoln hands her food to eat as she does it as she doesn't burn herself out.

Lydia, Lincoln, Deathstroke, Mike, Welton, Agent Bishop, Mulder and Scully return and see the others. Everyone is glad to see the two safe with all of them just glad to see them alive. Lydia states she protected them with the Infinity Stones. Sid and Lisa state they fought so, .

Hilda asks did Lincoln find what he was looking for, Lydia states yup and that they may need help with this

Chapter 7

Lydia is busy reading some kind of book trying to understand the Mind Flayer having a feeling that it comes from some kind of table top game. Lincoln then enters the room and ponders why Lydia is reading that book. Lydia states she has a feeling that the Mind Flayer comes from some kind of table top game like D&D. Lincoln states he thought that first and states that just because it's there doesn't mean it applies in real life and asks Lydia does The Mind Flayer bulid it's body with possessed bodies and people turning into whatever he saw, she cant assume it'll be like the game

Lydia looking a little defensive states she knows that she doesn't know what this thing really is, Lincoln lowers his eyes and sits next to her saying he sees Lydia's worry regarding Marcus and her parents and that he knows considering what happens to his family and friends.  Lincoln confesses to Lydia that the team knows about it and he told them what he saw, Lydia states that's good but why is he still getting that way. Lincoln says because what just happened in regards to what he saw with his Flayed Family dissolving into sludge and he's scared it will happen to them too and the others. That last part was something he didn't even need to see

Lincoln adds that whoever sent that thing must have it in for him, and scaringly to him he doesn't know who. Lydia calms him, telling him that she is worrying as much as he is and they know it can be hurt they just need to find a way to actually kill it, and if they were able to defeat Bill Cipher then the Mind Flayer can be stopped. Lincoln states he's the man with the plan and can figure something out,  Lydia states he came around quickingly, Lincoln states not really he just focused himself in turn and thinks the boys may have some input, Lydia adds the girls will have some too and that they should consort with their respective gender

Lincoln and Lydia both head out and Lincoln asks Lydia about Nolan and Cleo aren't they a concern to her. Lydia states they are but she is confident Ford will figure out a way to apporach this and that they'll wait for Ford and the adults to do so. Lincoln states that Mulder and Scully will proably tell them about the monster they saw and Deathstroke will know too so and he tells Lydia that he intends to have Hilda have the 6th stone. Lydia agrees with this since it makes some sense, but she asks Lincoln if he's clear on Hilda using the stones. Lincoln states they'll teach her how to use the infinity stone as Anne, Luz and Ford have some idea of their own with it.

Lydia, Anne, Luz, Hilda, Larke, Kim, Lisa, Betty, Sid discuss things on their end. Lydia explains she will be purusing the alien life forms and that she will do it with the intent to get rid of the bigger threats. Lisa and Betty both point out that wouldn't be feasbile as there is a way that M.A.L.I.C.E is communciating with the life forms. Sid states that Lisa can find her some kind of way to dissable it and Lisa states she can find a way to Sid.

Larke shakes her head and tells Lydia that does she really think that Lydia can take the alien life forms all by herself. Lydia states she'll have back up,  Larke asks if she's thinking clear or is this about what happened to her parents. Lydia states that has nothing to do with this. Larke says that she'll join Lydia in doing this, Betty then agrees with this as she has a space ship for them to use. Anne and Hilda are both skeptical of this and Betty activates it's horn shutting them up.

Anne takes the floor and decides that she would rather go after the spies and this is what Kim agrees on as she intends to go get her sister back. Anne nods in agreement and that they do that for her and asks Luz if she's in. Luz however states she's sticking with Lydia as she will need help, Anne understands and asks if Luz has her Infinity Stone.

Lydia, Anne and Luz discuss the stones and that Hilda will have the 6th one. Lydia states she will have the Mind Stone. Anne decides she wants the Power Stone and Luz thinks on the reality Stone which Lydia gives them. Luz asks about Ford, Lincoln and Hilda, Lydia states she will handle Hilda herself and that she will ask them what they want. Anne agrees

Hilda, Larke, Lisa, Betty, Sid and Kim all then look at a map as Lisa manages to get her hands on it and shows them what she intends to do. Betty and Larke both state they will do their part to allow Lisa and Sid to deal with the sateliete. Sid, Lisa and Kim agree to this and Lisa states that they will be good as long as Larke, Betty, Lydia and Luz don't do stupid like getting themselves killed.

Lydia sends off the girls and Hilda stops to talk to her. Lydia hands Hilda the Infinity stones and tells her that Lincoln insists she uses one with her, Lincoln, Ford, Anne and Luz. Hilda decides on the Reality Stone and states that she's glad Lincoln thought about her as that's why Hilda needs to talk to Lydia.

Hilda and Lydia discuss Lincoln and how he is getting about the situation as well of Lincoln's close friendships with both of them. Hilda admits she's a little worried about Lincoln with Lydia stating he'll be fine and that he's dealt with stuff like this before, Hilda says but she's hasn't and Lincoln not telling her is a concern to Hilda. Lydia states because he doesn't want her knowing, Lincoln trusts Hilda but not with the personal stuff, he delegates it to Lydia herself and she is proably the one person who can tell Lincoln what he needs to hear as opposed to what he wants to hear.

Hilda thinks on this and says she heard about Lydia from Lincoln and Lydia states Lincoln mentioned Hilda to her too. Hilda asks about the horrors and Lydia explains things that no kid should ever see

All the kids all set off to do their own thing but they are stopped by Ford, Eclpisa, Deathstroke, Mulder and Scully who ask what they're doing. The kids explain they're going to go stop M.A.L.I.C.E and the Mind Flayer. Ford states not alone they will, and that they're acting risky.

Larke and Bruce state Lincoln and Lydia made the plan for them to excute. Ford asks Lydia and Lincoln about this and they explain.

Lydia is meanwhile taking deep breaths and she's trying to focus on the objective was Larke, Luz and Bruce come in and brief her about what's they're dealing with. Larke asks if she's good and Lydia says not really and that she may not be able to defeat Nolan with her one stone and Bruce states true but she can hold him off and if she can master how to use the telekentic powers she can keep him on edge. Lydia tells Bruce that she has nose bleeds whereever she goes full power, her usage of the stones does indeed hurt her. Luz tells Lydia then she can help fight Nolan if needed and that they have 4 stones, Mind, Reality, Soul and Time and that could at least be a challenge for him.

Lydia then asks about the Mind Flayer, Larke states that the agents have this under control mostly and that are putting things together with Hilda, Jauna, Agent Bishop and Mr.X. The three offer to help her if she needs it and ask about her friend Marcus. Lydia states it's not just him, she suspects that her other friends are gone too or in hiding and that The Flayer is using them as well. Larke gently reassures Lydia that neither of them will kill Marcus to set him free from the Mind Flayer they just need to sever the connection and Bruce found a way to do just that

Luz then asks Lydia about how she recharges herself afterwards, Lydia states she eats a lot to recharge herself whenever she uses too much power. She refers to when she used those powers on The Mind Flayer the two times she and Lincoln encountered it and protecting the others. Luz understands and tells Lydia that the fridge is full and that they have 3 fridges in case she needs the recharge bad. Lydia tells Luz that she was looking into the extent of the mind stone's powers and worries about the power abuse she may have if she goes through it.

Larke and Bruce both say that Lydia will be fine, Larke tells Lydia that the red head is the heart of the group or at least one of them and that they wouldn't be as effective without her, Especially Lincoln and to a lesser extent Truman and Ford.

Lydia states does she believe that really?, Larke says she does and she's  mostly an outsider and can see this, Larke admits that herself, Lydia, Lincoln and Sid all have big hearts and Larke admits for her beauty, brains and strength, Larke says her heart is her biggest strength. Heart keeps a team focused and the fact Lydia was sharing the stones with Ford, Anne, Lincoln, Luz and Hilda states she's not a lone wolf and will gladly take and give help to others

Bruce and Luz continue to pep talk Lydia saying with Bruce saying that despite her fieryness , she really does stand by her friends and works to help those who need she's more of a hero than a guy like Captain Hero or Omni Man despite them looking the role. Luz states and she's someone who people can open up to useing Ford and Lincoln as examples, Ford admitted that Lydia allowed him to open his more trusting side again and that why when Ford is mad with her, he does out of fear of losing her.

Luz then states that with Lincoln, he's been made to feel like he was some kind of bad luck, lacked confidence and the ability to trust people, except when it came to the brace faced redhead. Luz admits that her and Anne love Lincoln becuase of what he's becoming while he's still a dorky boy they love the new bold confidence he has at times and ability to trust even though he still realistaclly struggles. Luz states Lydia doesn't see it becuase Lincoln isn't that way around her, Lincoln is more confident around Lydes, he doesn't struggle to trust her  and she makes him matter.

Lydia states everyone in Team Free WIll especially Hilda, Luz states true but none of them could have done what Lydia did. She was there for Lincoln in his lowest moment and Luz even admits she would have told him what he wanted to hear, Lydia told him what he needed to hear. Luz, Bruce and Larke all state that for her thinking she's nothing without the stones that's not true and that she has provided her mettle. Lydia points she never thought that but Bruce states she implied it through.

With The MIllers already launching an attack, Lincoln tells the team that they are under attack and they need to take on The MIllers calling Bruce, Lydia, Truman, Larke and Hilda to the bay and the six engage against The Millers. The MIllers attack in a personalized space ship carrier created by The CSM And Malesotorm to use in their fight while the six heroes fight in their own cruiser

The Millers split their ship to attack the team and this is when they split into two respectfully themselves with Lincoln and Larke going after the dad, Lydia and Truman going after the mom and Hilda and Bruce targetting the kid. As they all engage in dog fighting 3 on 3.

A Long fight is undergone with the 6 piloters ships, Though the heroes do end up on top with Hilda and Bruce getting the kid and this allows Lydia, Lincoln, Larke and Truman to get the parents while distracted, though they agree to let them be saved as they're not murderers. Lincoln saves The MIllers and just puts them in a cell telling them that they will be putting them away afterwards

Hilda, Luz, Lydia and Larke all smile at Lincoln for this as he is showing that Luz, Bruce and Larke were right about him. Lydia admits that Larke was right on what she said, Hilda asks what she means and Lydia explains what Larke, Luz and Bruce told her. Hilda states that as much as she loves the confidence, she likes the boy the way he is and Lincoln doesn't have to change to please anyone Lydia agrees with this.

Lurantis has his men immediatly attack them on spot. Betty notices this and has Lincoln, Lydia and Hilda take fire on the smaller ships while she teleports the crew to Luranis ship

Hilda, Lincoln and Lydia agree and each take the controls of another ship. Bishop states that Deathstroke had him bulit a lot of cruisers for such a ocassion to them

Lincoln and Lydia both observe Jauna swearing to Hilda's safety and state it looks like Hilda might have a dad. Lydia asks Lincoln what Luz said to her about him and is that true, that she made him a better guy and that his lack of confidence and ability to trust others was present unless it came to her. Lincoln states that yes Lydia did help with that and he means it, he values their relationship as best friends and partners. Lydia states confidence or not, she's his best friend and likes him regardless and he didn't need to change himself and Hilda agrees with her on that.

Lincoln says he wanted to, he wants to be that guy he is with Lydia all the time. Lincoln struggles to say what he truly feels and says that with Lydia, Lincoln feels complete like's being himself isn't a problem at all and that he is brave enough to fight on. Lydia doesn't believe this and says not just only her, and that all of his closest friends keep him strength. Lincoln says perhaps so as they both smile at each other and hopefully as he says that he made her a better person. Lydia states of course he has holding Lincoln's hand and says that he taught her a lot about heroism, about public events and about that special thing. Lincoln asks about what special thing and Lydia states you know that thing. Before Lydia can confess her love for him and Lincoln for his for her, Mulder, Scully and Hilda arrive in the room saying that Alpha is on the parameter with the other life forms.

Lydia and Lincoln nod and head off follow them. Hilda asks Lincoln what he talking about with Lydia. Lincoln states he'll tell her later, Hilda says she wants to know now. Lincoln says he was pep talking Lydia about whether Luz says was true or not. Hilda knows it was about Lincoln changing and that she likes him the way he is, Lincoln admits Lydia said that about him too. Hilda states then listen to both of them and be himself. Lincoln states he is being himself and that's why Hilda and more so Lydia are the 2 kids his age he is the closest to.

Luz and Lydia then discuss their talk and Lydia tells Luz she's sorry for doubting her and Luz states it's good.

The victory is short lived as a result of Nolan crashing the party and knowing Ford was trying to keep him away decides to take matters in to his own hands. Lydia decides to engage with Nolan herself with the Mind Stone,

Lydia uses the Mind Stone to keep Nolan at bay and slams him on asteroids with Nolan grabbing Lydia and throwing her into space with Lincoln and Luz using the Time and Soul Stone on Nolan to keep him on his edges.

Lydia, Lincoln, Luz and Hilda all manage to use the 4 stones on Nolan as he just fights his way through them

Lydia, Lincoln, Hilda, Luz, Betty, Truman, Jauna, Mulder and Scully all watch as Nolan decides to attack the Flayer and the being themselves and is tossed to the ground with an appendage. Lydia then snaps the Virtumites with the Mind Stone as a result before nearing bringing down to a state of uncosncisouness

Mulder and Scully save her and the others and manage to bring them to cosnicusness as the Mind Flayer was going to attack and persumably kill them. Mulder tells them that they need to go down back to Ford. They agree,

Luz notices that Nolan and The Mind Flayer aren't in this together and it tried to kill Omni Man too.

Lincoln, Lydia, HIlda, Luz, Truman, Larke, Bruce, Captain Hero, Jauna and the others all eat some stuff from a fridge trying to figure their next play

Lincoln, Lydia, Luz, Bruce, Larke, Sid, Mark, Truman, HIlda and Deathstroke all get back together respectufly and approach Anne, Kim and Amanda as they have Cleo all pinned down.

The whole crew exchange their own ends respectfully. Deathstroke asks about Nolan and Mark says that Ford must have found him. Lincoln, Lydia, Luz, Bruce, Larke, Truman and Hilda mention that the Mind Flayer was what stopped Nolan like it was to kill the man.

Cleo wants to stop CSM herself but the heroes tell her that she is crazy to think she can do so. Cleo then uses the gems to hand them all off saying she has to stop him. Lydia, Lincoln, Anne, Luz and Hilda all use the stones to fight Cleo and Kim deicdes she needs to help and engages with them.

Cleo does have the upperhand on the six though she is trying to make sure her attacks are non lethal unwilling to hurt Lincoln or Lydia. Luz and Hilda use their stones of Time and Reality to keep Cleo in place and Anne uses the Power Stone to lay some hurt on her while Lydia and Lincoln use the Mind and SOul Stone to stop Cleo while KIm is holding her off with her powers. Cleo is struggling to deal with them though does use her water powers to basically just get them all her. As the six look concerned

Kim, Lincoln, Lydia, Luz, Anne and Hilda all thank Ford for saving them and what took him. Ford states Nolan was why and he managed to talk Nolan down. Kim hopes that they have beaten M.A.L.I.C.E down and can use the gems to bring back the heroes. Nolan states this isn't done that they still have The Mind Flayer to deal with and that thing is a bigger threat than any of them are.

Lydia and Lincoln agree as they know first hand considering their two encoutners with it as does Truman and is one encounter.

With Lydia, Lincoln, Ford, Amanda, Anne, Luz, Sid, Lisa, Hilda, Truman, Bruce, Larke, Mulder, Scully, Jauna, Nolan and Cleo all together they all put a plan to overcome the Mind Flayer and for the heroes to save Team Free WIll and Nolan to save his race.

They all split into groups to do just that to put their plan to work and they need to bait the Flayer to attack them and Feel Lydia is the right bait to get the drop on it. Everyone gives her back the stones so she can use them to seal the Mind Flayer and defeat it.

Ford and Nolan are both heading to the gates so they can seal off the Mind Flayer's influence from the CSM as Nolan knows he is powerful enough to do so and Ford is smart enough to just that, they just need the the center as it's clear to go.

Lydia, Lincoln , Truman, Mulder and Scully all arrive too with them joining Ford and Nolan in heading to the center of the where the Mind Flayer orginated. Lydia is scared that she will have to go straight in the upside down but has to put a brave face. Mulder and Scully ask Ford and Nolan if the plan is safe, as they don't want a kid being on them. Ford states he will do what he has to do.

Lydia asks Lincoln and Truman to join her in sealing off the Mind Flayer as this may take more than a simple person. Lincoln is confident Lydia can do this and that she shouldn;t doubt herself, Truman states that she doesn't want to risk them as she can use all of the stones to snap it out of exixtence or just kill it. Truman states if they join her, they could die too. Lydia states she will be able to stop it and that she isn't facing that thing alone.

Lincoln has a rope on Lydia and tells him he will pull her out if it gets pass 15 minutes. Lydia states she'll be fine but she understands his worry and states 15 minutes it is. Lincoln states this is between her, Truman and him. Hilda and Jauna both show up and say them as well. Lincoln states fine they can know too and tells them that they need to keep hold of the rope on Lydia so she can deal with The Mind Flayer

Lydia asks Lincoln to wish her good luck and that she'll be thinking of him. Lincoln says he will do and he, Hilda and Jauna all hold the rope as Lydia enters ready to deal with the monster once and for all.

Lydia looks for the Mind Flayer and it shows up ready to kill her as it recongizes her as a threat. Lydia tells Lincoln, Hilda and Jauna it found her and she is ready with all six stones glowing in the Infinifty Gauntlets.

It swings all it's tentacles trying to kill her, though she is quick to use all the stones at once to  attack the Mind Flayer and hold it down and uses her mind stone to snap the tentacles off. The Mind Flayer grows more and tries to use to inplant a parasite to kill her within. Though she uses the Reality Stone and Time stone in conjuction to stop it. Then uses the Space Stone to move within space to clobber it with the power stone.

Lydia is tuckered out from her long fight with the Mind Flayer and she remembers she just has 3 minutes left before she tells Lincoln, Jauna and Hilda to pull her out. However this is Amanda and Cleo show up and tell her to stop being crazy and think she can take this her self.

Amanda asks Lydia for the Stones and Gauntlet as she is going to bring this thing down herself and Cleo takes the Nano Gauntler and the Gems. Lydia states do they know what's going to happen, Amanda they both do and don't want Lydia throwing away her life. If there is one thing that can agree as Cleo puts it they  both can say they care about her and will put everything aside and if she can do this she can bring everyone back and kill this being and Amanda agrees as they both snap their fingers to use the Infinity Stones and Gems respectfully.

Epilogue

Lydia is in a massive shock as she sees the corpses of Amanda and Cleo laying there with the gems and stones respectively. Lydia collects the infinity stones and feels catahric as Amanda safriced her life to keep Lydia from doing the same thing as she still has a life for herself to live

Team Free Will and Deathstroke's Associates set up a funeral for both of the heroines's death. Lydia unlike her friends is very much in shock and doesn't say a word as she is hears everything from the parents, to their other friends give their eulogies. Her face is down and sad as a result in turn

Thinks get worse for her, when it turns that she was outed as Lydil Red  by Deathstroke and his associates who reveal this to her. Her look doesn't change even as they are brought to the president's office and that they need to be hiden and relocated.

Lydia is taken to the Vacumm Shop with Saul's suggestion and Deathstroke and Mr. X driving them there with the rest of the heroes looking concerned for her looking at Lydia and her eyes. She didn't take a bite of anything in turn.

Deathstroke and Ed see Lincoln and they tell him that Lincoln will especially need to be careful among the group and he will have to be hiding for 3 months compared to everyone's else 1. Lincoln states it's about her isn't it. Deathstorke admits Lydia has a part in this and Lincoln's close connection with her is why the two will stay together as he sees the sparks. He is told that they will have to go to New Hampshire and Ed will personally have to get them and from a propane truck

Lincoln and Deathstroke approach her and tell the situation and she's still there enough to understand and Deathstorke helps her get into the propane truck and she decides to just sleep and Lincoln keeps Lydia company as they  have their bags and the 11 million dollar barrel with them.

Lincoln and Lydia are both stuck in the propane truck as Lydia sleeps and Lincoln watches and as soon as it stops. The two get out of the propane truck and are welcomed to New Hampshire by the Extractor as Lincoln wakes up Lydia.

Lincoln wheels the barrel money into the lodge, He and Lydia are told by the Extractor they have a month's worth of food, a generator, a woodburner, the TV Front's reception is pretty much nil and they'll be limited to DVD which Lincoln admits he does have plenty. Lydia just sits down still a bit in shock and thinking to her self as Lincoln continues talking to The Extractor.

Ed reveals as well there isn't a phone aas it will equal them in cuffs and ice storm result in calls. and that's the same deal with Satelite, cable and other stuff apart from The Xs and Mulder and Scully no one can know who they are and Ed's business is keeping them out of custody and keep out of sight.

Lincoln asks about the gate and Ed states there is a one horse town down from the hill and he can't stop Lincoln or Lydia from going down there and does warn them that if people find out who they really are and aren't on their side. They will be caught.

The Extaractor states that the kids got some acres, lots of woods and warm, it's the spot for them to rest and think and that if they look around it's really beautiful. Lincoln thanks Ed for his help

Lincoln gets back into the cabin and sees Lydia saying that now they have their cabin and tries to ask something until Lydia opens her mouth and bawls. Lincoln asks what's up and Lydia with teary eyes states that she just had to watch Amanda and Cleo die in front of her, she watched them kill themselves and she tried to save them. Lincoln states this is like what he said and asks Lydia isn't like she said when it came to Linka when She helped him.

Lydia states that's true but asks Lincoln if he did remember what she said about time frame and that while she can live with it to an extent, it's still tough at times. Lincoln understands and does tell  Lydia that Amanda she was trying to let Lydia live her life and not give up her young life for the mutliverse. Lydia states that she has control over it and wouldn't have perished unlike Amanda due to her knowing how to use the Infinity Stones.

Lincoln asks about the other thing and Lydia states that she had to watch her friends be used by the Mind Flayer and nearly killed. On top of that, she doesn't know it was possible or who exposed her Lydil Red Alias to the media and forced Them into hiding, she feels that Lydia failed at protecting her friends and team. Lincoln states she didn't, she succeeded and that she couldn't have seen what happened and at least she is with her best friend as he points to himself and with the stones, they can at least use them to get some stuff and have Truman, his family and Mulder/Scully keeping their eyes on them. Lincoln reassures Lydia that like with Linka, they will deal with Amanda and Cleo's passing as a team and holds her hands into his own with Lydia's sorrowful sad eyes locking his own. Lincoln states that Lydia carried him when he was his lowest and no one else could. Now The Team will do that for Lydia now as he presents the urns of Amanda and Cleo's ashes.

Lydia wipes her eyes and thanks Lincoln for this and she just randomly then kisses Lincoln on the lips and then she realizes what she just did and they causes Lincoln and Lydia to get awkard, utterly stunned and both of them go red in the cheecks as a result. Lincoln states they kissed, Lydia states she wasn't trying to do so, Lincoln says they're best friends, which Lydia says that it's something that she takes seriously and Lincoln states they are also partners and Lydia stresses and says she was just trying to thank him.

Lincoln is gentle and states that he proably would did a similar thing in Loch Loud after Lydia had him pull himself together. Lydia asks how does he want to honor Amanda and Cleo, and Lincoln states he knows how

Lincoln and Lydia both go out to the cabin with the snow on the ground and see the little stream and the two place the urns on lantern boats and send them off in respect to find their way to peace. Lydia asks Lincoln now what, and Lincoln states they live for the next 3 months but first a bite as Lydia must be hungry from the ride in the propane truck, She agrees and that's his choice and the two stare at the twilight in the sky despite being cold and they sit near the stream.

Countdown to Chang's Guide To The Galaxy

Lydia is one of the main protagonists with Lincoln, Bender, Anti Cosmo and Slade of this storyline

Lydia in exile with Lincoln in the northern mountains

Lydia is one of the main characters though apart from Lincoln, The FBI Agents and Truman X she really isn't with Team Free Will due to being in exile. As it turned out, the ramifications of her alias has more recpurssions that she thought it would have and this causes great distress to her which Lincoln does his best to help her with as she helped him when it came to Linka. She alternates using the stones to figure out info on ths situation and trying to live her 3 month exile with Lincoln

Chapter 1

A Winter night in  the cabin of New Hampshere, Lincoln finishes his snowman he has been building in the front of the house. Lincoln comes in to the house and notices how Lydia is basically guzzing down Dr.Pepper like nothing. Lincoln works to stop Lydia from overdoing it as he is concerned that she has been drowning her sorrows over what she learned

Lincoln asks Lydia why is she doing so, Lydia sadly states with a gloom look that Truman texted her  what Mulder and Scully investigated. Lincoln asks what and Lydia with tears in her eyes shows Lincoln that The three found out that Lydia's parents were taken away and put in an asylum as a result of them saying what they experienced from the Mind Flayer

She is down right worried what will happen after the 3 months in the cabin with her parents confined away and not wanting to go to child services afterwards over this

Lincoln states she won't, he'll make sure, Lydia states and how will he. Lincoln and his sisters were all separated from each other as well due to the exposure.

Lincoln doesn't deny this, and feels that everyone in his family got relocated other than Lilly due to his affilations with Lydia. He also states that Lisa ran away before anyone could get her.

Lydia stops being snarky in that regard but is still a bit sad, She continues drinking from the bottle though does let Lincoln get a drink in as she can only imagine what is happening to everyone else.

Lincoln calms her and offers some fresh air for her to talk and to get her winter coat. Lydia takes this deal and puts on her winter coat with Lincoln putting his winter clothes on

The Two walk through the woods calmly in the dawn of the winter night with a clear sky and the stars are bright. Both of them basically walk near hand and hand with each other where Lincoln and Lydia both come across a bench and sit down on it.

The two see a small town, all the while seeing a Christmas Tree, decorations and a lot of cabins, house and co.

Lydia and Lincoln talk to each other about Amanda, Cleo and Castiel's deaths. Lincoln asks Lydia in regards to what she said to him about Linka and that did Lydia really mean that it does get easier and you can forget about it. Lydia states that part of that is true and she does mean it with Cleo and Amanda, however Lydia tells Lincoln a truth she admits.

Lydia admits to Lincoln that part of this indeed true but sometimes, things never really get easier to cope with loss and even if you can manage the loss, live a normal life and go through the grieving process, sometimes one  never really truly does "get over" things. Though it can appear to be easier.

Lincoln looks at Lydia as she says it  as she states it's up to him as well as herself how to take the apporach and she can't tell him what to do. She admits a lot of bad happened to her as of late, and that Lydia sadly asks Lincoln a question of her own in confidence. Lydia asks does Lincoln feel Lydia has some repsonbility for what happened to his family.

Lincoln says, he doesn't blame Lydia for this, he made his own choices to help Lydia  and it's not like either one of them could have anticpated what happened that resulted in this. He and Lydia look across the skies and Lincoln states that this exile does give them time to think about things

Lydia agrees and tells Lincoln, that at least the two have each other as company. Lincoln nods and says the silver lining is he has his best friend with him and during Christmas. Lydia hands Lincoln a present for Christmas and vice versa as they watch the beautiful night sky together.

The Next Morning, Lincoln and Lydia have both been sleeping in the mattress as a result of them being up all night, talking on the bench and watching the snow. This is when a knock on the door is heard and it's The Xs

The X Family who drop off their weekly supplies to Lincoln and Lydia. Tucker notices how sleep  heavy they were. Lincoln tells him they were up late.

Truman and Lydia then talk among themselves and Truman tells Lydia that Fox and Dana are living in the Lopez House at the moment. Lydia questions this and Truman tells her that Mulder and Scully are doing do to insure that the house won't be bought by anyone else when the exile is done. Lydia admits she was worried about the houseat least she feels a little better, Truman also assures her that Mulder and Scully will take care of things if her parents aren't off the asylum, they're trying to arrange that Lydia doesn't go into child services.

Truman, Tuesday, Tucker and Trudy all tell them, next week, same time and they agree. With the 4 going back as a result and that to text them what they need next time and they'll get it.

Lincoln and Lydia both talk again and Lydia tells Lincoln what Truman told her. Lincoln asksdoes she feel better now, Lydia admits a little  at least she knows the house is safe for the moment. Lincoln feels that the Xs are hiding something, and Lydia asks how he knows this, Lincoln explains that Mulder and Scully didn't come in despite being there too and that something maybe be up.

Lydia thinks on using the Mind Stone and blindsfolds herself so she can observe what's going on

Lydia takes off her blind fold and tells Lincoln that she saw two consenting adults, russians, Aliens and well certain foggy details. Lincoln innquires, Lydia states Scully and Mulder are the consenting adults and that it's like the two are trying to hide their relationship and knew something was going on between them.

Lincoln says he saw it, and puts it together that a consipracy is going regarding aliens  and russians. He even feels that something is indeed going haywire and that it may require their involvement. Lydia isn't so sure as she reminds him that they need to make sure no one knows they're around or the authorities will come. Lincoln recongizes Lydia's meekness comes from what happened to her and reassures her that they will do at night as he told Tuesday and Trudy, they won't be seen. They can just use the space stone to get back to the cabin before anyone is the wiser and that they just need to hide themselves from anyone looking for them. He admits this will be tricky between them, but they can do so

Lydia agrees putting her meekness about it down, and states she'll get to writing what she saw and then they can set out tomorrow night to begin their own look into things.

She and Linc are mentioned by Ford and the others and when The Bad Guys talk to Mulder, Scully and the Xs, Mr.Wolf advises precautionary attempts and that no matter what happens they can't tell Lincoln Loud or Lydia Lopez of this. Larke does consider possibly having her boyfriend Troy keep a eye on the two as Troy does have Lincoln's number and is willing to take a risk. Ford does worry with her recent losses, that she might come off unbalanced in grief and possible anger.

Chapter 2

Lincoln is busy with something in particular as he waits for Lydia as she is busy with a therapy  session with Mr.Candle, who Lydia has been seeing and using her phone to call and it's untapped as well.

He thinks to himself if she is going to be truly fine, Lincoln recalls what she told him and feels that as much as Lincoln can only confide in Lydia heavily, maybe she can do so only with him too. He also feels that maybe in the team, they're the only level headed ones due to the fact they actually seeked therapy for their troubles. He does doubt this as They are planning to go across and investigate what's going on which in itself is risky.

Lydia comes back in the cabin room with a few hotdogs and places them on the table. Lincoln asks Lydia did anyone see her, Lydia shakes her head and says that she used the Reality Stone to pay and she thought about Hot Dogs.  Lincoln notes this and asks on the therapy session.

Lydia says she adrressed what she dealt with. She is thankful that Mr.Candle actually gets what's going as she addresses it's hard to explain to an ordinary person with stuff you dealt with.  Lincoln understands this and gets that he and Lydia both know that. Lydia tells Lincoln that she remembered something back in the Upside Down when Amanda and Cleo safriced their lives for her. Lincoln questions what, Lydia tells Lincoln that she was actually saved by someone who wasn't them

Lydia describes that this person was a tall young woman/late teenager with blue eyes, blond hair in a school girl uniform and super hero uniform. She was suprised this even happened out of nowhere. Lincoln doesn't question it and Lydia asks is Lincoln humoring her?, Linc tells her he ain't. He feels that a lot of crazy things have happened and this is by no means the craziest. Lydia hands Lincoln something and she was scoping what the agents were looking to.

Lincoln sees it's russian work, alien work and government cover up and that they will head out at night. Lydia states that it looks like Truman, Mulder and Scully will come back in 5 days so they have 5 days to do their work.

Lincoln tells her he was in contact with Troy Jeffies and that he is telling them how things are and all that, Lydia asks about how much he texts and Lincoln says a lot.

By Night fall, the two look around and sneak out with them looking around at the sight of anyone following them. The two  are freezing due to the weather but they keep moving

It seems too quiet, and that do notice something there seems to be monsters spefically that are following them. An Ice Dragon spefically as well as a polar bear. Lincoln asks Lydia if this seems suspcious, Lydia states it does the fact both of them are being followed spefically by it. This is when the dragon and polar bear pursue the two. Lincoln and Lydia both begin to run from the two and as The Polar Bear catches up and tries to attack Lincoln, while the Ice Dragon attacks Lydia.

Ice Dragon unleashes its freezing breath at the pair, Lydia tries to deflect it with the gaunlter though it proves ineffective and she tries to get around it and considers using the power stone, though has an idea of her own. Attack from the inside and decides to trick it into eating her. Which The Ice Dragon does and upon reaching the the bottom, she used the Infinity Gauntlet to take some of the frigd power used on her and uses it freeze the inards of it and encases the Ice Dragon in Ice. and then uses the power stone to shatter it. Thus getting out of the Ice Dragon

The bear roars and does a lengthy and suspenseful battle with Lincoln, the latter walking out unscathed and the former running scared into the woods. Lincoln turns his attention to Lydia afterwards who's suprised.

Lydia asks how he knew that, Lincoln says he learned that from his teacher and his sister. Lincoln tells her about the fact the Polar bear is aware of the leader of M.A.L.I.C.E. The Russians then show up and attempt to bring the 2 kids in. Lydia is prepared to just teleport them out with the space stone, Lincoln holds on her so they can get away before the Warden brings them in.

Lincoln and Lydia both land in the middle of a facility and they both hold the other which makes them both feel awkard. Lincoln aplogizes for getting into close to her, Lydia says it's okay and that he just needed to feel safe. Lincoln questions where Lydia took them, Lydia admits she has no idea but at least they're safe from the Russians. Lincoln and Lydia realize that it looks like the duo is being hunted by M.A.L.I.C.E's head again.

This is when an doctor shows up knowing exactly who the two are, he tells them to come with him into the facility. He introduces himself as Dr. Samuel "Sam" Owens who has been searching for the two as he needs their help. Lydia is curious how he needs their help, Dr.Owens say that their enemies are why. referring to the russians, those monsters and the head of a conpsiracy working with them

Lincoln asks if Dr.Owens is aware of the head of M.A.L.I.C.E, Owens states that he is aware of who he is but just knows he's an older man but the real  reason comes down to someone he is recultant to work with

This is when another Doctor, comes in by the name of Martin Brenner who was spefically who was looking for the 2 kids. Lydia questions his need for them, and Dr.Brenner tells the two that it has to with his orderly One. Lincoln and Lydia both understand question the name and The 2 doctors explain the history of Brenner, how he learned of psychokinetic abilties by taking Henry Creel into his custody and how he reproduced these abilities in child test subjects and the history that led him to Hawkins and dealing with the Demogorgon. Brenner and Owens both know Lincoln and Lydia are aware of it and they faced it.

Lincoln and Lydia both give glances and are not amused about dealing with the Upside Down again. Brenner states he knows they closed the dimenison and managed to kill the creature and deal with the mysterious things he knows about. Lincoln asks Dr.Brenner how he knows this, Brenner tells Lincoln he used to work for M.A.L.I.C.E but he was fired by the leader for getting too close to the truth like he was co-oprating with someone who knew Brenner and he feels it's Henry Creel out of revenge towards him for failing him. Owens more optismically believes Lincoln and Lydia are who can stop this and that for how much they don't stand each other, they know the two can deal with both Henry and The head of M.A.L.I.C.E.

Lincoln is overwhelmed with this but Lydia tells Lincoln that at least someone has their backs and knows they're innocent in power, though does agree that them at it alone could be tough, though that have dealt with stuff like this before. Dr.Owens agrees and that he has made it so they will not be tested, they do though need to be mindful of the forces that will be now that they are found by Jimmy the polar bear. Lincoln realizes that they had an eye on them since the start

Lydia and Lincoln question trusting two people they just met, but due to Owens's reassurance and care for them, they agree. Dr.Owens states that the Soviets are closing in and that they may need to get a move on to go after them and any other monsters that are ordered by the head. The Two head out.

Lydia and Lincoln have both arrived to a prison camp and Lincoln asks if Lydia is ready, Lincoln takes out a gun and Lydia gets the stones ready. Lincoln holds her hands and tells her that they will make it and he wants to say something before they start, Lydia is ready to hear it until someone shows up on them. It turns out to be a costumed super hero with blonde hair and blue eyes and a purple suit. Lincoln asks Lydia is that's the girl and Lydia says she looks like her. Introducing self as Stinger/Stature/Cassie Lang she asks what are the kids doing here. Lydia tells Cassie that the two are here to go after the Soviets as they have connections to the man who did this to them. Cassie knows they're talking about Owens and state he found her too, Lincoln nods to this and that they're trying to stop the soviets.

Cassie decides to take the two with her and that she'll protect them. Lydia asks what her powers are. Cassie tells them she has the ability change her size at will. Lincoln asks Lydia does that remind her of Ant Man, Lydia says it does and that her costume does look like a bee. Cassie notes this and grabs the two and shrinks herself to head to the prison.

The three end up sneaking into the prison camp and they manage to get in without detection. However it is mentioned by Cassie that it may be impossible to go through undetected so they will have to defend themselves. She stresses, not to kill anyone, the two agree.

They are detected, and are chased, Lincoln has a stun gun and freezes plenty of the guards and they manage to stay way until the guard lose them. Lydia knows something in that this will won't be the last encounter.

Cassie asks for one of those stun guns, Lydia makes one appear with the reality stone and Cassie asks about the Gauntlet and the two answer her questions.

Crawing through a tight tunnel, they are forced to trigger and get chased and begin going up with Cassie using her suit to allow them to safety. Lydia asks why Cassie doesn't just shrink them, Cassie says she has no intent to exhaust herself by being small too long.

After eluding of another chase, there are giant searchlights which they avoid and continue their trek without being detected by the traps. Upon seeing the lasers, Lincoln and Lydia think about just using the space stone to get to the exit with Cassie just nativgating.

They are spotted once again, and the trio use their stun guns to stun them and once again avoid another search lights room. As they apporach the next leg of the prison camp. They are shaft laser censores which forces more hiding, however as they climb up. Lincoln's foot is spotted and the guards come in once again to chase them. Cassie questions how many of them are there running this place.

There is another set of them, though they avoid it this time. But not soon afterwards they are exposed in another corridor and chased in a longer chase than usual until they manag to get to the end of the corridor. However this was not the brighest idea not that any of them could hvae noticed.

It's a huge demogrgon like creature, it's a Demogrgon that Lincoln and Lydia know about but don't know about completely. Cassie is aware herself as she was also in contact with Dr.Owens as well.

The three are quick to notice it's shackled and Cassie decides that they should try to attack it, Lydia and Lincoln both know of it's weakness to fire and use it against it.

The Soviet Demogrogon swats at them with it's shackled claws though they do avoid the attacks and even tries to attack with it's own alien like dna. Cassie, Lydia and Lincoln all manage to cause some fire damage. Though as Lincoln note, it's not as effective as it is against other demogorgons.

The arm shackles  break and The Soviet Demogrgon decides to rush at them and tries to poison them, Cassie keeps Lincoln and Lydia safe with her suit and manages to get their fire power to conitune aiming at the Soviet Demogorgon's and after a lot of progeess. Cassie takes the helm again and puts the smack down on the Soviet Demogrgon for the moment with the other two just watching Cassie fight. Cassie knows she can't kill it but at least is willing to nearlt defeat it so the Warden can't use it on anymore prisoners for a while.

As Cassie flies out, the two question why didn't she kill it. Cassie states she doesn't know how to but she knows it can be hurt. Her plan was to make sure something like that existed first and foremost.

Lincoln convinces Lydia to ask Stature/Stinger/Cassie Lang if she was the heroine who saved her.

Lincoln, Lydia and Cassie all return to the winter compound where they are waiting for Dr.Sam Ownes and Martin Brenner. Lydia asks if Cassie knows who she is and if she saved her from the Upside Down. Cassie admits that she did not save Lydia from the Upside Down, though she does admit she knows who did save her.

Cassie tells Lincoln and Lydia that she is from the future like some of her friends and that a crack in time involves her and some of her friends were sucked into the timeline due to someone meedling with the dimensions. Lincoln questions this and Cassie states that she and her friends dealt with someone cracking time between the present and future and she and others were sucked in. Her Cloeset friend only was stuck there for a brief time, she shares her hair and eye color as of late and her name was Eliza Papillon. Lincoln and Lydia realize that they have walked into something.

Cassie even goes so far to say she is trying to find a way to get back home and find her other friends if possible to get back to Eliza.

Lydia asks how does Dr.Owens or Brenner know anything about it, Cassandra feels they do know something or they're just trying to find how this even happens as it may have been linked to the infinity gems or stones. Lydia and Lincoln both look in disbelief.

Dr.Brenner looks at this and recalls it was like the one he found in Hawkins and that M.A.L.I.C.E's leader is trying to use this thing as a power to claim power. He suspects that it may be just the start and that he senses Lydia is an answer to this with her connection to the Infinity Stones, spefically the Mind Stone which could be using to eavesdrop on the thoughts and communications of the soviets and maybe weaponsize the use of the Mind Stone . Lydia isn't pleased about this idea but realizes Dr.Brenner is the only source to the man who went after both her and Lincoln to get answers, though Brenner may also know about the Upside Down so Lydia decides she will need to help Brenner. Brenner does advise Lydia may near to be pushed near her limits more if she wants to deal with this.

Lincoln and Lydia sit down and Lincoln tries to tell Lydia what he was going to tell her and Lydia tells Lincoln he doesn't have to say it now. He should wait til they're alone,  Lydia understands and state maybe in a while when they get back to the cabin. Lydia tells Lincoln she talked to Cassie and she can get them back. Lincoln warns is that wise to tell her, Lydia admits that it is a risk to do so but Cassie seems trust worthy. Lydia goes on further to say they will look into what they need to do before returning with Owens and Brenner and others.

Lincoln and Lydia have an agreement to keep what they're doing between themselves, Lincoln is marking everything down on a map so when Lydia and him clear back after meeting back with Truman, Mulder and Scully

Lydia asks when this happens, if Lincoln ready for a little you know, as Lydia is affectionally looking at Lincoln. Lincoln says of course he is and holds up the SMOOCH concert DVD which Lydia states yeah he gets it.

When Mulder, Scully and Truman arrive with their supplies, Lincoln and Lydia are just reading and have a blender out and Truman worrying about them hugs them saying he was scared something happened. Lincoln questions did something go down,

Mulder and Scully ask the two about are they doing fine and have they gone crazy. Lincoln says far from it and that they being get around fine and Lydia even says it's really cozy.

Mulder and Scully talk to the two and they advise them to continue being careful know that they know The Smoking Man is hunting them now though not telling Lincoln and Lydia about this.

Chapter 3

Truman and Mulder meanwhile see Lydia and tell her that they may be a little longer for their drop off as they have a thing to deal with. Lydia asks what it's about, Truman and Mulder basically just say a case for work to help Mulder and Truman cover it up in case The SMoking Man comes after the two. Mulder states that she has no need to worry as when this is all over, he'll have a suprise for her and Truman tells Lydia she'll like it.

Lydia asks about her parents and Mulder knows the truth but is hesistant to tell her as he doesn't want to upset her. Mulder just says that they're fine despite what happened, Truman tells Lydia that he'll be happy to see Lydia and Lincoln again after this is all over and his family too. Lydia sees the Xs outside and she smiles at least to herself she, Truman and Lincoln will be all together, Ford and the others as well

As Lincoln and Lydia see them off, the two begin thinking on something. Lydia tells Lincoln it's like They're doing something they don't want them to know about. Lincoln states it's just like what they doing which Lydia admits to it.

Lydia notes she smalls a small bug and states it looks like Cassie is here. She is right and it's indeed Cassie and a friend of hers. Lincoln asks who her's friend, Cassie states that it's her friend Kelly who also came from the future like her and her other 2 friends.

Lydia asks what is she exactly, both Cassie and Kelly explain the latter as a teenage Woolett girl. Kelly states she was sent back by the same rift that brought Cassie here.

Cassie states she'll take the three to see them. Cassie shrinks herself and hands a pym particle to shrink Lincoln and Lydia as she explains that this will be how they get around the authories potentially.

Cassie picks up Kelly and lets Lydia and Lincoln right on her as she uses the Stinger Suit. Lydia asks Kelly about the future/rift, Kelly tells Lydia that along with two other friends of hers, A Japanese Phantom Thief, and an archer they were all strained in this timeline. She also knows Eliza as well and she explains to Lydia. They're teenage heroes who do hero stuff and other things. Lydia understands Kelly is being vague due to trying not to reveal the truth

Lydia, Lincoln, Cassie and Kelly arrive at the door and Dr.Owens asks if their friends are aware of their sneak outs. Lincoln states they're not aware to Dr.Owns but Lydia thinks they're hiding something.

Lydia states like they know who's behind of all this going on. Brenner states that he does have some knowledge though he is stilling working on what The Guy's plan is. Lydia asks about this, but Brenner stops her right there and tells both her and Lincoln about Henry and what he did to his family, and his attempts to control him through a chip to negate his powers and use as an orderly

Lincoln and Lydia both realize Brenner is trying to find Henry as a way of atoning for screwing him over, due to not being able to feel gulit for his own actions and Brenner wants to kill him for masscring his test sujects

Brenner warns them that Henry doesn't just kill a person, but absorbs their essence into himself, thus growing increasingly powerful with each murder he commits. So Lincoln and Lydia may have a uphill battle when he shows himself finally.

Dr.Owens intterupts and tells Lincoln and Lydia that he senses something up once more and that that it's that Conspiracy that is going on. Lincoln, Lydia, Cassie and Kelly all agree to help and Brenner has his men guard them off as he decides to take a measure of his own, Lure The Conspiracy out and acquire more info on the true matter of Operation Countdown.

Lincoln, Lydia, Cassie, Kelly and Dr.Owens go around to see what they can find with Brenner's mooks leading the scenes respectfully. All them are quick to note how quiet it is, too quiet. Lydia and Kelly both are ready to deal with something as they see something is up.

Lydia is handing Bob The Dwarf and using what she learned to avoid his strikes and attacks before using the Reality Stone and using it to distort Bob and then use the Power and Mind Stones to hurt him. Bob grabs Lydia with his hand by her neck, though she uses the Space Stone to escape and then stops him with the Time Stone and then uses the Mind Stone to pin him down to escape to find Lincoln and Cassie. Lydia realizes that The Dwarf isn't done for the count and continues to chase her all the while she dodges heat visions lasers coming from nowhere. Although it is revealed Homelander is attempting to fry her as he decided to follow suit against her. She finds Dr.Owens and Brenner's mooks who are facing off with The additonal men CSM sent after them.

Lincoln, Cassie and Lydia then help Kelly find out smaller monsters as the NME Salesman sent insurance as back up

With Brenner's henchman holding the ground against CSM's Agents, Dr.Owens manages to get Lincoln, Lydia, Cassie and Kelly all out of after tuckering themselves out against The Sales Man's monster attack and Homelander's secret attempts at killing them during the fight

Lincoln and Lydia see Brenner and they learn from him that he has been looking into Operation Countdown, who the two learn he looked into. Brenner tells them that The person is charge of the operation is The Smoking Man, the former head of M.A.L.I.C.E and his former employer

Lincoln and Lydia look carefully and they learn of Operation Countdown truth as Brenner lets them do so. Upon them looking into it they learn his real name is Carl Gerhard Busch Mulder and Lydia realizes he must be Mulder's biological father and Lincoln isn't sure what to say as this is the man who attacked his family, caused the separation of Team Free Will  and leaked Lydia's secret. Lincoln states is this guy really behind all this

Brenner states that he indeed is and he used to work for him, but he was also in service with Henry Creel/One/Vecna who CSM assisted. Lincoln looks at Lydia asking if it's okay with her now that they know who really was behind this. Lydia is trying to put this all together as this is all a lot for her to take in. Owens conforts Lydia about this aplogizing for putting her through learning all this. Saying that She needs to focus but he'll give her time to reflect

Lincoln and Lydia do something about and that Brenner and Owens believe Carl is trying to use the power of the Unowns or something even more powerful for his true plans. Lincoln states calling him The Smoking Man seems more fitting.

Brenner refers to the Sinnoh region spefically the Solceanon Ruins which contain Unown and think The Smoking Man is planning to use them for Operation Countdown. Lydia asks what about The Ruins of Alph, Owens states that was one placed that was dealt with and admits that both of them know Team Free Will dealt with them

Lincoln states he and Lydia indirectly did, Brenner and Owens suspect that The Smoking Man is trying to harness the powers of the Unown or something even more powerful, considering it's the region of Sinnoh. So they need to go over there and investigate what they know about Sinnoh

Cassie, Kelly and Lydia meet back up and Lydia tells them what she learned from Brenner and Owens. It's a Sinnoh trek they're on and Lincoln is calling up Dawn. Cassie and Kelly believe this may be true. Cassie states that Sinnoh is a very obvious place considering that is where some of the most powerful pokemon lie, Lydia asks what she knows, Cassie states it's all history at this point and that it happened a while ago.

Lydia asks about Eliza to Cassie, Cassie explains that she is her oldest and dearest friend, they met when they were kids, fight crime and are neighbors. Cassie describes her as smart, althetic, attractive, aloof and skilled. Lydia states so she's perfect, Cassie states no she is aloof, she is a bit of an outsider and apart from them and her team doesn't have friends.

Lincoln tells Lydia that Dawn will help get them through Sinnoh and that she will help them. Owens states that they will go by ship to Snowpoint City. He allows the two to get some stuff before they set off.

Lincoln and Lydia are at home at their cabin pondering about their Sinnoh and Unown situation. Lincoln inquires if The Smoking Man is really trying to control the Unown. Lydia states it's likely a bigger piece of the puzzle, due to the high amount of legendary Pokemon residing in Sinnoh. Godhood is best fitting if he seeks them. Lincoln places on his Pokemon cap and states that they havn't prepared for him, Lydia laughs at the dorky and adorable gesture as she puts it saying did he really do so. Lincoln knowing Lydia is joking smiles and states pokeballs, pokedexes are right here and he didn't need her Reality Stone for that

Lydia asks about the suit cases that they'll take as this will take a while. Lincoln goes back on track and states The Unown did exist in Johto and Sinnoh and that if Smoking Man wants to control The Unown he won't do it in Johto, The Unown King was there and CSM is not stupid to try control something like that. They both know that.

Lydia states that it won't be unlike him though and if Operation Countdown is about these legendaries what if the Creative Trio is part of his plan to harness godhood. Lincoln states Dawn could provide coverage for that, and that they can look into all the legendaries of Sinnoh. Lincolnasks about the Tanopy Chambers and Lydia questions that and Lincoln shows her the Sevil Islands Map, and that The Unown can come from there but with only Articuno, Zapdos, MOltees and Mewtwo around that may not be powerful for him. Lydia and yet Moltres was how the Unown King got free with other Johto Legendaries.

Lincoln and Lydia continue observing the Pokemon notes as they keep looking into it and Lincoln does ask Lydia if she's really fine. Lydia states she has a lot to take in with The Smoking Man being behind their exile, the Royal Woods situations and everything they're dealing with and she can't process how stressful this is for all of the heroes associated.

Lydia reminds herself that she did make the choice and what she told Lincoln about making chocies and how even small ones can be impactful for them. Lincoln explains to Lydia that he's glad she recongizes what she told him in herself. Lydia admits Mr.Candle did advise her to follow her own words better, as it is easier to give advice than follow it and she has done so much for others but does struggle with her own accords.

Lincoln states it's normal and he gets it. Lincoln is similar to her in that and wants to make sure Lilly is okay and wants to check in on her, Despite the risks it has. Lydia states that risky as it may be, they should see his baby sitter and maybe check on her parents in her asylum.

Lincoln asks will she be okay with that, holding her hands worryingly saying she may not what she likes she. Lydia smiles and says it'll be hard but she wants to ensure her folks know she's alive and that they will make sure no one sees them. She asks if there's anyone he wants to see, Lincoln states there may be. But He'll need to think.

Lincoln and Lydia both head back to Royal Woods and Lydia uses the time stone on the webcams installed by THe CSm and his conpsiracy so it'll be on repeat what they say. Lincoln and Lydia help each other get into the house and they go up the stairs and into Lisa and Lilly's room

Lincoln sees Lilly and picks up her, Lilly is happy to see Lincoln but Lincoln tells her to be a little quiet not to wake mom and dad. Lydia sees her too and Lilly greets Lydia too as Lydia picks up Lilly and hands her to Lincoln.

Lincoln tells Lilly that he will bring the family back together, he knows who was behind it and that he and Lydia will insure of it.

The Song Baby Mine from Dumbo is played as Lincoln Rocks Lilly in his arms as he rocks her calmly as they see Lincoln's parents looking sad as they see photos of their family that The Smoking Man tore apart. Lincoln is about to cry himself, as Lydia puts a hand on his shoulder with a tear in her own eyes, he gently thanks her.

Lincoln rocks her gently and hugs Lilly before putting her back to bed and he watches with her, Lincoln's other friends in Royal Woods being put to bed by their own parents.

Lincoln and Lydia head to the asyulum and see the latter's parents in a perpetual catatonic state,, Lydia puts her hand on the glass watching as her family was basically destroyed by One/Henry Creel/Vecna. She realizes that Mulder didn't want Lydia to know this and she understands why he kept that from her. Lincoln returns the favor for her.

Lincoln lastly goes to Trollberg with Lydia and they see Hilda with Jauna and Joanne and Lincoln has a letter that he wrote to Hilda and places it in the mail box. Lydia and Lincoln both watch as Hilda goes to bed noting how her family for all it's trouble is functional and how that their mutual reason to want to stop The Smoking Man is to get their families back no matter how distance or mentally gone they are.

Chapter 4

Lincoln and Lydia see Cassie, Kelly and Jordie on the ship to Snow Point City. The two board the ship and the two are shown their room. That Very Night, Lydia  is somber about what she saw on her parents and in tears over her family's loss of mind. Which Gets Lincoln's attention

Lincoln asks her is she okay, Lydia tells Lincoln that what she saw was just  too much to handle. Lydia feels that what was Mulder, Truman and Scully were trying to keep this from her. Lydia states that she has seen many things, but that was just something. Lincoln asks if she's still thinking of Amanda and Cleo, Lydia states it has been getting easier for her. Lincoln says that to Lydia, she techinally saved his life a long time ago and he wants her to let him carry her for once. Not to think less of her course

Lydia appreciates the gesture and says she wasn't thinking that. Lincoln offers to go ice skating at Snow Point when they arrive. Lydia asks if it should okay regarding his leg, Lincoln says that was a while ago even so he'll go through it. Lincoln says when she's ready to get to bed. He'll be there, Lydia sighs dreamingly at the genuine nice guy Lincoln really is, she decides she needs to confess the truth to him. Unknown to her, Lincoln is in a smiliar thought.

Lydia glomps Lincoln as they sleep which the latter smiles about unknown to her.

As they arrive, Lincoln and Lydia meet Dawn again and the three reunite in regards to the Unowns. Lincoln and Lydia take their ice skates and head to Lake Acuity.

Lincoln  and Lydia go ice skating on the lake, Lincoln is awkard due to his ability to though Lydia helps him do it. Lincoln gets a better handling on though Lydia has a good handle. Lincoln smiles as he got through to her and made her smile.

He skates happily with Lydia on the Lake, as Lincoln does so, he sees a pokemon, The Lake Guardian he rubs his eyes in disbelief and he runs into Lydia. Lincoln asks if she's okay and Lydia says she's fine. Lincoln tells Lydia he saw a pokemon, Lydia doesn't see it, but does ask what it looked like. Lincoln tells her it was small and yellow

Lincoln and Lydia get back to Dawn and tell her and the others about their encounter with the lake pokemon Uxie as Dawn states.

This is when The Smokign Man and the Valley Gang arrive, Owens tells Lincoln and Lydia that this is the guy

Lincoln and Lydia are shocked to finally meet the man who turned their lives upside down. Lincoln and Lydia both want to bring him down, but The Smoking Man brands a gun on them and states that while the 2 are heroics kids, they're still kids, humans, vulerable and that one shot to the head is death and he intends to do that to keep Lincoln from informing the truth about The Mind Flayer and the upside down.

Lydia accuses him of handing humanity to it on a sliver platter, Lincoln is baffled why CSM even considers him such a threat. CSM states that Lincoln is the one who exposed the Millers and that alone makes him a threat. He can't kill his little partner unless he wants Lincoln to not be afraid to take risks, so he settled for this even calling Lydia Lydil Red to her face. CSM's men also prepare to capture them when Brenner's mooks prevent this. Lincoln and Lydia then both decide to go screw it and attack the man. Lydia pins him down with the mind stone and Lincoln justs goes crazy on him blaming him for destorying Lydia's family and tearing apart his. Lincoln i acting out of what happened to his  whole family and neighbor over this guy. CSM tasers Lincoln though Lydia does save him from the effect with the Reality Stone.

CSM tells the two that he isn't intimated by them, he has watched presidents die and threatens Mulder and Scully to force them to back off.

Dawn has Togekiss take them to Sangem and Twinleaf Town to see The Professor about a plan. The two are informed of the legendary Pokemon that could be in use by him or themselves.

Lincoln, Lydia and Dawn regroup with Doc and meet his kids. With Rowan's instructions, they must get the plates to get Arecus on their side. Lincoln and Lydia both decide to go on their own search of the plates on the western side of Sinnoh.

Lincoln goes to the Pokemart as Lydia waits for him. Lincoln comes out with Pokeballs and shows them to Lydia. He is intent to go catch a pokemon, Lydia asks to catch a bug pokemon if possible, Lincoln considers this as they head to the Eterna Forest.

The two watch as the forest jump opens up to them, Lincoln sees bug types but doesn't want to catch a bad one for Lydia. Lydia reads the Sinnoh Dex and states he doesn't need to catch one now, She shows Heracross, Skorupi, Yanma, Scyther to Lincoln. He states that he'll hopefully find it.

Lincoln reminds Lydia that while this seems like a dream come true to them, they have learned the consequences of living secret agents and super heroes. Now it's Pokemon, and he thought the Unown was the case. The Two inquire what The Unown has to with this, though Lincoln asks Lydia how are they going to catch anything without Pokemon. Lydia tells him that she thought this out, she hands two pokeballs out to Lincoln, she got one for him as well. Lincoln picks the left one.

Lincoln has a Chimchar and Lydia has a Turtwig, he thanks Lydia for it. Lincoln and Lydia both look through the forest, but don't see any Insect Plate. Until Lincoln notices something hidden and it's the insect plate. Lincoln goes hurray that they found it.

However Captain Putty and General Mantible find and try to attack them. Lincoln and Lydia decide to test out their pokemon against them and send out Chimchar and Turtwig and battle the 2 villains. They manage to get the drop on the two thanks to quick thinking on their part as Lydia has Turtwig cut the trees as they go to he Old Chateau

Lincoln and Lydia both look around the Old Chateau, and they see Gastlys. Lincoln manages to catch one with a Pokeball. They go through the second floors  to look for the Dread Plate. They are sucessful in finding the plate. Lydia wants to contiue looking around, so Lincoln has his Gastly go around around to the dining area and the 2nd floor. They go to the 2nd floor and see The TV. A Rotom comes out and intimiadtes them. Lincoln uses his Gastily to fight it before weakening it,  Lydia then throws a pokeball to catch it.

Afterwards, Lincoln and Lydia leave and get back to the others with their 6 plates so far, this is when the group temporaily feel the effects of the time and space distortion. This is stopped by the time stone before Doc and the kids bring them back to the cabin

It Turns out it's Christmas Eve and that Lincoln is trying to make a xmas dinner when Lydia comes down and Lincoln is shocked she is dressed in a huge green dress with red gloves. Lincoln wants to say she looks great, Lydia states that she doesn't dress up or like to but makes an exception for the situation and for him. He shows her that what he's been trying and aplogizes for not making it up to par, Lydia tells him that it's fine she wasn't expecting something big

Lincoln and Lydia eat a Xmas Ever Dinner at their table with the Florama Town flowers. Lincoln and Lydia give each other their Xmas gifts. Lincoln shows Lydia his xmas card which he basically declares he appreciates their friendship and that Lincoln is in love with her and he means it. Lydia is shocked in that Lincoln loves her out of the girls he's with. Lydia ask about Hilda, and she thought that Lincoln was in love with her, She does admit she has no issues if that was the case. Heck it was even Lydia that told him to see Hilda after a mental breakdown over Linka, and that he needed a change of scenery.

Lincoln tells Lydia that he does love Hilda and that Hilda was just how he could distract himself from his feelings for Lydia, so he won't be troubled by the revelation of his love for his best friend. He went out with her a couple of times, does love her and feels a connection, but Lydia just so happens to be the one person let alone girl Lincoln feels a stronger connection and love for.

Lincoln confesses he loves Lydia's dorky nature, her constant helpfulness  and how upfront she is about who she is. Lydia then confesses she utterly loves Lincoln just as much and this suprises him. Lydia confesses, he's the only one for her she realized and has been struggling for a while to say it.

Both Lincoln and Lydia reveal to each other that they have mutally been in love since Loch Loud to each other and dealing with Linka's passing where Lydia helped out Lincoln with his grief. Lincoln asks why Lydia loves him and she calls Lincoln's endearing and postiive traits as why, she is basically attracted to the dorky, cheerful, kind boy he is and likes him the way he is, Lydia states that if Hilda "does" like Lincoln it would maybe be for similar reasons. Unaware that Hilda is in love with Lincoln like herself.  

Lydia asks what took them so long to say it, Lincoln states because they're best friends and spend so much time together, but spectulates that they already have acted like a couple frequently. Lydia feels it's because they had the same reason, they didn't want to ruin their friendship.

Lydia inquires what he wants to do now with this infomation. Lincoln knows what he wants to do and kisses Lydia on the lips and she returns it to him. The Two have their teeth stuck to each other which gets a laugh out of both of them. Lincoln admits deep down he didn't mind Lydia smooched him when they were exile the 1st time, he just had to get through his head that his best friend basically kissed him. Lincoln asks Lydia  how to proceed, Pretend nothing happened or offically start their budding romantic relationship.

They both decide the latter, it was meant to be, then it was meant to be. They agree to start their relationship, but also decide to keep secret so they can get back at their friends for teasing them about their crushes on each other to deny them the truth.

Lydia and Lincoln watch the fire as they lie down as Lydia extends out her hand to Lincoln. He takes it and they smile having gotten that monkey off both of their backs.

Lydia and Lincoln are both visited by Mulder, Scully and Truman to celebrate Christmas Day and Boxing Day. Even though the two ate already a christmas dinner, they decide to not spoil the efforts of the three. She is regardless happy to see Truman, Mulder and Scully, as at least it's like Lydia has Mulder and Scully to be like parents. Ironic to her, that Mulder is working on adopting her. She and Lincoln follow their arrangement, not to tell the three of what they're doing in Sinnoh, or the fact that they have become an item.

Chapter 5

Lydia returns back to the cabin with stuff and reveals that she has cosmic eye contacts to help disguise herself slightly with green eyes of course as green and red are her favorite colors. Lydia finds out that Lincoln was also working on blueprints for an actual house in a treehouse for the two, as he is not sure himself if they will get back to their own family. Lincoln asks on Lydia's input and she states how could they actually go for a functional house in a treehouse, which Lincoln thinks on using the Reality Stone for it. Lydia even admits that the idea isn't bad, it's just that he needs to think more in the box respectfully and how to get around all the obvious fallings in resources, parent teacher conferences and how to get stuff past others.

She tells him about what she found on The Unown as well, and the Solceaon Ruins is where they are respectfully. Lincoln also shows Lydia the exclusive events of the Membership Pass, Oak's Letter and The Azure Flute he looked up which Lydia used the reality stone to bring them out of the book. She does admit that this is a cheap way to help out, but to be fair to Lydia it was a necessary move.

They are picked up by the others and Lincoln is told of the legendaries and plates by Cassie and Doc alongside Lydia. They are already aware of this as well and inform the group that Lincoln was looking respectfully into exclusive events of Pokemon like legendaries. As they are informed Doc hands Lydia master balls, with Dawn, Lincoln nd May to use to guarantee catching legendary pokemon. The two go with Doc and learn he was intenting to retire alongside May.

First off, Lincoln, Lydia and The Brown Family stop in Solaceon Town, and as Lydia tells him this is where Solaceon Ruins where The Unowns are. Lincoln and Lydia head in the ruins with the Browns not far behind. Lincoln and Lydia read the Unown inscriptions as they go to find the mind plate, They do find themself attacked by The Unown, as Lincoln realize that the Unown do recognize Lincoln and Lydia. The Two do manage to capture a few for Doc respectively as they suspect The Unown King is around and is aware Lincoln and Lydia are in the ruins. Lydia does use the time stone to slow down the Unown, to insure they are not caught by the more hostile Unown. They get to the final room and they find the Mind Plate respectfully.

Secondly, the Stone Plate is where the crew go next and they go to Mt.Coronet which Lincoln, Lydia and The Brown Family navigate the Fog respectfully. As they go around the 4th floor to find the Stone Plate, respectfully. Lincoln and Lydia both notice two orbs and they take them which has Lincoln can tell is the Adamant and Lustrous Orb, which as he explains is the orbs in regards to Dialga and Palkia. Lydia knows they're the time and space pokemon hence two potential ways to ensure they find the creation duo.

The two find the Iceberg Ruins as well, and find a a 7-dot pattern on the floor and a statue on the back wall. They step on all the dots and then interacts with the statue. This is when Regice appears which Lincoln captures. They go looking for the Icicle Plate lastly, which is at the top of Sinnoh and Lincoln must have to deal with Mantible and Jimmy The Polar Bear alongside Lydia and The Browns. Lincoln deals with both of them, using his tactics against bears in Jimmy he learned and manages to deal with General as well with Lydia who uses the stones to also put the ants and Jimmy in their place so they can find the Icicle Plate. Doc insists they go find it, and the two find the plate respectfully,

Lydia heads to Lake Valour so they can find Giratina respectfully, as she waits for Lincoln to find a way to get there this is when she notices Azelf. She sees the soul of Azelf, just like Lincoln saw Uxie's and Dawn saw Mespirit's. Lydia wants to catch Azelf on spot due to it's uniqueness though it disappears. She tells Lincoln what she saw, as Lincoln tells her about the Admant and Lustrous Orbs glowing.This sents them to the Distortion World. Lydia knows Giratina is there and decides that they need to catch it, upon navigating through the weirdness of the distortion world due to how parral the world was. The Two eventually find and capture Giratina. Upon being send back to Turn off spring, they realize that Time didn't go by as fast as it did and spatial relations are shown to be irregular.

Lincoln remembers that Snowpoint City has a temple that had a Pokemon that needs to be awakened by getting 3 other legendaries. Remembering he has Regice, they will need the other 2. Lydia thinks on Iron Island, for Registeel. Lincoln asks Lydia to catch Registeel, like he did for Regice which Lydia does the same thing as Lincoln does and catches Registeel

Realizing they are missing 2 plates, and a few legendaries in Heatran, Regirock, The other members of the creation trio and the event legendaries. Lincoln tries to figure where they are and that is when He feels something just like Lydia and Dawn. After Cassie looks and tells him and the others about the lake trio's disappearance and the bomb. This is when Doc finds out about the Time Eater and tells Lincoln and Lydia about it as well as his kids.

Lydia and Lincoln both put it together with Doc that it caused the temporary distortion earlier. Lydia decides to go catching the rest of the legendaries and asks if Lincoln will join her on this hunt and Lincoln nods as they'll do this together so they can save The Lake Trio and save the world from CSM.

Chapter 6

Lydia with her friends are told of what happened to the Lake Trios by Cassie, and Dawn and Doc both inform them that they have to get in gear to get the last of their respective legendaries and plates. Lincoln volunteers to stay as does Lydia to keep the CSM on just them or the others. May knows why Lydia wants to do this to spend time with her best friend and feels they spend too much time together. Lydia states they're partners, equals and to the very end they work together to deal with their goals.

After they leave, Lincoln asks Lydia how does she want to do this, Lydia states that they should go after Regirock first to complete the Regis at Snowpoint Temple. She agrees and in turn states does he have his team of six which he does thanks to use the Pokewalker, and then jokes to him saying that should have a pokemon battle afterwards. He accepts and they head off. Lydia looks at her own team and states that she should use them more as opposed to using master balls, she admits to herself that she needs to keep them fresh.

Using the Space Stone, they arrive in Route 228 and braving through the Sandstorm go the Rock Peak and do what they did before with the other 2 Regis, summoning Regirock, Lydia gets her master ball ready, though sends Torterra to help Lincoln and his Infernape ware down Regirock to capture it.

Lydia switches out her team for Registeel and Lincoln does for the other two and they head to Snow Point Temple and go through the temple with their jackets on. Wanting her live back as much as she can, Lydia takes going after Reggigas seriously, though her deamnor does crack when Lincoln playfully hits her with a snowball. She prepares one of her own once this is all done. hey reach the bottom floor and after some sliding, they have Regirock, Registeel and Regice out of their balls to wake up Reggiggas and capture it. Lydia then throws her own snowball at him causing a laugh out of him.

Lincoln checks the index next and asks does Lydia have the special events pages and she does showing him Oak's Letter and Member Card mentioning how they would seem so far back, but the Sinnoh Games were remade. They decide on the Member Card first which Lincoln knows is in Calalave City. The Two head there use the Member pass to enter Harbor Inn, An Man sees the two have the pass and puts them to sleep. They dream they are in Newmoon Island and go looking for Darkrai. Who shows up as they reach the center, Lydia protects Lincoln from it's influence as she is aware of Darkrai's terrifying presence and instantly goes for the Master Ball. They wake up to see no one there. Lincoln states and now that leaves Oak's Letter.

Before this though Gratina can feel something and has Lincoln and Lydia see something with it and they see that CSM and his men are out to capture Dialga and Palkia and using the time eater seems to be part of the plan. Lincoln notices the pain it's in and heals it as Lydia thinks on something else and asks about maybe trying to have the Unown help them with CSM she admits it's dumb but he agrees that it can work. Lydia does look at her PC, to see the Unowns they caught as she fumbles with this idea in her head.

Heading to Solceaon Ruins with Lincoln and they again deal with The Unown, though using Giratina the two manage to reason with the Unown about CSM being a greater foe and his attempts to control the creation duo will cease the end of them too. They catch plenty of the Unowns on top of that.

Heading last to Route 224, Lydia observes Lincoln with Oak's Letter finds a white rock asking what he is most thankful for, Lincoln leaves his answer vague though Lydia implies she is aware of his answer, she talks to herself about how cliché his response may have been, they go through Seabreak path. Lincoln picks some of the flowers and Lydia asks if it's for Linka in Loch Loud and he states some of them are. They reach the end and find Shaymin, he knows it has an alternate form and infhorms Lydia as soon as he catches it.

They return to Snowpoint City and Lydia asks what did Lincoln inscribe onto the white rock what he was most thankful for, Lincoln says he'll tell her after this as he wants the mood to be just right. However this is when the armed forces and The Smoking Man arrive to basically to kill them as CSM is aware that he can't let him or Lydia live after what Putty told him.

Lincoln takes the time stone from Lydia to freeze them respectfully to escape, though they are caught up to by another group of forces, though Brenner manages to rescue them though he is shot by them and CSM. Brenner dies as a result, though he tells Lincoln and Lydia that he was trying to help them when it came to Henry and that he wanted to make sure they were ready for him. He also attempts to leak out Dr.N Tropy's existence to them and his involvement with The Smoking Man, though he stutters before he can get it to the name.

Lydia watchs Lincoln show the legendaries to Jules and Verne, and begins writing a description of what Brenner said, blue skin, clock premises and arrogant haughty british accent.

Finale

Arecus helps Lincoln and Lydia take on the primal forms of Palkia and Dialga as Lincoln and Lydia break his control over them and Lydia uses the Stones While Lincoln uses the Unown to to erase CSM while he is also shot in the head by Bender unknownigly to Lincoln, Lydia or Dawn

Lincoln and Lydia are granted a wish by Arecus and Lincoln takes it after some prompting from Lydia as they can't agree on who needs it more between them. As Lincoln wanted Lydia to make the wish and vice versa. Lydia wanted Lincoln to get his family back, while Lincoln wanted Lydia's family to have their cognitive funtions restored.As every thing cools off, Lydia sees off Kelly who gives her a Sword as a memento for her. Afterwards, Lydia is told to get her summer  stuff as Doc is taking him and the kids on a retirement vacation  where she and Lincoln rest up and enjoy the hot sun.

Lincoln asks if Lydia is truly okay with how things played out. Lydia admits it will take a while to accept Mulder and Scully as parents but she can at least visit them at a special care home. Lincoln then asks Lydia why she let him make the wish over taking it herself. Lydia states that Lincoln gives so much to the people he cares about and his family and doesn't as much as he should. Lydia wanted to give Lincoln something for once for being the compassionate dorky albeit loveable boy he is and if she took the wish Lydia would not have learned anything and may have assumed she could just wish things to get better.

Truman and Larke ask to see Lydia. Truman asks Lydia if she trusts Lincoln with Hilda, Lydia states she does and that's not a big deal. Truman states Lincoln gets a lot of girls and that Hilda may be in to him, Lydia states she didn't think it was unusal.

Larke says that Deathstroke welcomes her back home as much as he could, and that he assigned the agents to be her parents like Ford as Mulder and Scully fight to get Lydia custody back to her parents. Lydia asks about them, Larke states she dug around and that sadly nothing changed according to her and Troy. Lydia looks saddened, but Larke states that they're trying and they will help her even after it goes accordingly. Troy was keeping eyes on the Louds as well with her, Truman and Larke both notice something and Direct Lydia to it. Lydia puts on the stones and gauntlet and then heads to the location

Lincoln and Hilda both are startled by the Soviet Demogrgon and it's held in place by Lydia who has the mind stone. Lydia asks if both of them are okay. Lincoln states he's fine and Hilda while grumping states she's fine

Lydia states that Truman and Larke were tracking this and found something. Lincoln asks if she brought the Ace Savry Costume, The David Steele Costume, or the Space Cowboy Triton Costume. Lydia states she has the latter, Lincoln puts it one and the two go after the Soviet Demogrogon. He convinves Hilda to help which she does at Lincoln's behalf

Lincoln, Hilda and Lydia all deal with the Soviet Demogrogon fighing it off with the mind stone, sword and space weaponry. While the three do manage to get the Soviet Demogorgon safe from the people. Though it's still taking hits and charges at the three.

Lincoln decides to get the others and head back to where Lydia is residing with the Agents. Jaune and Lincoln both go off with Hilda stopping Lydia.

Hilda not happy with Lydia scolds her for getting in the way and upstaging her. Lydia asks what she is talking about. Hilda accuses Lydia of trying to brand her territory with Lincoln and that she is aware that Lydia is in love with him like Hilda and that Lincoln is Hilda's. Lydia states she couldn't have known that, apart from Larke and Truman's suspecisons.

Hilda states that she also was going to tell him something special and of course Lydia had to ruin it and steal Lincoln from her. Lydia rolls her eyes and states Hilda has no reason to act this way to her, Lincoln is their friend, both of them and that Lincoln wouldn't want Hilda fighting with her.

Hilda grudgely agrees and heads off. Lincoln asks Hilda what was going on between her and Lydia, Hilda states that she was talking about girl stuff.

As Ford explains everything to Lincoln, Lydia, Jauna, Hilda, Anne, Crowley, Cricket, Ronnie Anne and Larke. Truman shows up asking for Lincoln and Lydia which they come along.

Truman, Lincoln and Lydia all discuss something in regards to The Mind Flayer and if somethin was picked up by them. Truman mentions that he with the agents and his family did pick up on something and in regards to The Smoking  Man. Lincoln states he and Lydia know that and that the creatures orginated from the Laboratory of a masscarre caused by a person known as One or as they put it Henry Creel, an orderly of Dr.Martin Brenner who experimented on kids with mind powers and called by numbers. Truman isn't in belief about this though Lydia adresses that this is indeed true, they know about it and that it was Brenner's work to how the Demogrgon appeared to begin with. She states that the Soviets were also trying to use the Upside Down and Demogorgons for weapons

Truman questions the two on why they know this and what really happened in the mountains. Lydia lies and says nothing, they just did their research on the matter. Truman isn't buying it and states how could they without internet, Lincoln helps Lydia cover it up by saying that she found out in a salt water bath tub with a blind cloth in the dark.

Truman knows the two did something, but can't force it out of either of them. Truman calls a call from someone, it's Andrea Truman's love interest who he met in the episode Crusha with Love and made it work. He takes the phone

Lincoln and Lydia discuss to each other about what they told Truman. Lydia thanks Lincoln for covering her, Lincoln states that they can't tell anyone what went down in the group, this is kept between Lincoln and Lydia in confidence. Lydia states that they weer going to have to tell about their knowledge on the Demogorgon and the Soviets at some point, as Hilda or Jauna would have said something and Brenner was who did so as she recalls. Lincoln states that One/Henry Creel hasn't been seen for a while and that Brenner was trying to save him out of gulit, and that they looked into the history of Hawkins and what CSM did with the Russians.

Lydia, Lincoln, Truman, Hilda and Cricket come back to them and Ford tells them what went down and that they were all going to have to separate from Sid as they're dealing with magic as well as Demogrogons

Jauna phones Joanna to tell her about what's going on and promises to keep her girl safe. Hilda pulls Lincoln away to talk as he talks to Lydia about their siutation.

Ronnie Anne, Lydia and Cricket think things over themselves and Truman gives Lydia a "Told you so" about HIlda. Ronnie Anne and Cricket both ask her how was the exile, Lydia admits she feels conflicted about it and it was an uncomfortable but satisfying and quiet time. The two decide to not push the issue further.

As everyone travels, Lincoln lies on the sofa in a sleeping bag thinking about the Flayer, Lydia interupts his sleep and asks did he talk to HIlda. Lincoln states he did talk about certain stuff including the Mind Flayer and they did have that snack after all, though Hilda felt too distracted to say what she wanted to say. Lydia states that should make sedate Hilda who was hostile with her earlier. Lincoln asks about that and Lydia states Hilda was mad that Lydia was branding him, her territory as Hilda put it.

Lincoln states Lydia wasn't and that the two decide they need to reanalyze their notes on what they know.

Chapter 1

Lydia, Anne, Cricket and Truman all discuss their own ends with Anne and Cricket telling them about their own deals over time. Anne explains that the there was a problem when it came to her living, she was found by the authorities by some kind of crazy hero, she explains that Homelander was man hunting them. Cricket asks about Homelander, Lydia keeps what she knows to herself.

Lydia knows Truman is right but keeps what she and Lincoln did. Larke explains she told Truman they're heading to Loch Loud so he can possibly help them as well. Truman, Anne and Cricket all then take their leave to see Ford and co, Larke stops Lydia and knows what Troy told her about Lydia, Lydia questions how does her boyfriend know and what.

Larke states Troy did tell her what he noticed, but she'll keep it secret for her sakes.

Jauna meets back with Hilda and Ford with Lydia and they discuss certain stuff like  Jauna and Hilda's share uneasyness and Ford's insistence for certain things.

Lincoln, Lydia, Ford, Hilda, Anne, Cricket Green, Crowley, Jaune, Larke, Ronnie Anne, Truman all arrive in Loch Loud. Lincoln, Lydia, Ford, Anne, Cricket and Crowley indeed notice just how much it has changed  for the better. Ford and Crowley both state it's looks even better than it did when they left as Lincoln, Lydia, Anne and Cricket all take the observation.

As Ford and Lydia watch, Ford explains that he helped Angus improve the area as did Crowley as they did assist him in becoming an even better duke. Lydia questions how that was possible when Angus already was a universally beloved duke. Ford states, that he helped Angus with advice as did Eda and Crowley.

Ford leads the others to Angus who was waiting for Ford and Angus goes to see the others and Angus is happy to see Ford, Anne, Cricket and Crowley once more. He goes so far to hug Lincoln and Lydia who he is spefically happy to see and they are happy to see him.

Truman, Larke, Lydia, Lincoln, Crowley, Ford, Jauna and Hilda all follow Angus as Angus explains that he was getting the place ready for them after they all saved Loch Loud before and they needed to welcomed back as heroes.

As Angus leads the others to the castle, Lincoln and Lydia both discuss about  what Larke said to the latter. Lincoln is questioning how Larke knows what the two did, Lydia tells Lincoln that Larke wasn't clear but she did say that she had her boyfriend keep an eye on them.  Lincoln states that Troy does have his number, so it makes sense. He already adresses to Lydia that Angus is aware unlike the others  as Lincoln and Lydia both agreed to tell him what went on in regards to their time in the mountains.

Hilda interdues on the two and questions what Lydia is talking about with Lincoln. Lincoln tells Hilda that he's talking about Angus. Hilda is told by Lincoln and Lydia about Loch Loud and the history that Team Free Will and Lincoln have with Loch Loud.

Lydia adresses this by stating that Dragons were used by The Mclaughins to drive the Louds out, once by force and the 2nd out of gaslighting, which she saids with a uncharacterstic snarl in her voice as she remembers Morag's gaslights attempts on Lincoln, something that led her to nearly kill Morag. Hilda does note the gaslighting and Lincoln stateed this is why he made an exception to kill Morag, alongside Lydia. Cricket and Crowley point out that they helped by summoning the 7 sins to kill Morag as well.

Lydia and Truman both notice something and it's Deathstroke and Kamela being transferred by Gus and Mike. Deathstroke and Kamela greet the two of them with Lydia asking  Deathstroke what's he doing here and Kamela states that Larke texted them to come here. Truman asks about Mulder and Scully, Deathstroke explains that they are investigating something of their own as he and his crew do feel the Mind Flayer has remerged, Lydia and Truman both don't deny this claim as the former mentioned the Soviet Demogorgon.

Deathstroke curious asks if someone else managed to acess the Upside Down, Lydia gives the half truth that someone did if this thing is still around.

Kamela and Deathstroke remind Truman of Mina Loveberry as well as Lydia for why Belos would try to kill Sid as Mina has a strong grudge against Sid for being a monster lover and "killing" Mysterio.

Deathstroke does mention that Eclpisa, Luz and co, Lisa and Marcy Wu are with her like they saw and she has a good chance of being safe. Truman states and they think they can protect her from Belos, Lydia glares at him for thinking they can't with Truman aplogizing to her saying it's not that it's just Belos is someone Luz does know and is aware of his danger. Lydia reassures Truman she wasn't mad, she just didn't like him underestimating Luz that way.

Lydia and Lincoln unquestionably choose their room and Lydia decides to lie down, thinking as Lincoln tells her that he'll take a stroll which Lydia agrees to. Lincoln tells Hilda that Lydia and him picked them and placed the flowers there. Lydia's family had this tradition for the dead like Day of the Dead where they place flowers on the ancestors's grave yearly. Lincoln goes on saying that this was her first time in Royal Woods and that  she asked Lincoln if he wanted to follow her family's tradition for her and Lincoln agreed. They went to Scotland to pick flowers and then send them there. Lincoln admits a part of him did die, for the rest of him to live that day.

Angus goes to see Lydia and the two talk about Lydia's death situation regarding Amanda and Cleo. Lydia states she's fine, and that being in that cabin did allow inter perspection, Angus states that was proably the idea, and asks if she's overdoing it on Dr.Pepper. Lydia states she got it under control, Mr.Candle helped her with this, Angus vaugely states that She wasn't his only client and he heard other things like that. Lydia asks Angus if he told anyone else about what happened, Angus shakes his head saying he honored his word and kept what Lincoln and her did to himself, as Lydia explains Larke was vague but it's implied she knows what they did do. Angus and Lydia both begin thinking on this.

Everyone is techinally asleep that night, with Lincoln pretending to sleep wiith Lydia until they realize that everyone is asleep thanks to Lydia using the mind stone and blindfold  and tells Lincoln now it's their cue. Lincoln holds up a map and states that is where they will go and use the space stone to travel there.

Lincoln and Lydia arrive at Pennhurst and they notice that it's still 30 minutes before closing and Lincoln is left questioning what to do, Lydia states a steak out and  she brought sandwiches, pimento cheese trying to say it in her gruffiest voice possible. Lincoln rolls his eyes with a smile pointing that she isn't Mike, Lydia offers him one which he takes from the cooler she brought. Lydia reminds him about the coffee, Lincoln asks if that Mocha Cappicuno she states it is. The Two just sit there and spy as they wait for the hopsital to close all the while looking fondly at the fact it's been a while since they done so.

After the doors close down and security starts patrolling, Lydia and Lincoln decide to patrol down and head to the wing, Lincoln has Lydia take off their shoes so they can't leave shoe marks. and reminds them that they need to come up with aliases in case they're questioned. He will be David Steele and what will Lydia's be, Lydia thinks for a moments and decides to call herself  Fay Murray. Lincoln and Lydia sneak into the wing and the former can't help but notice that their alias first letter of their name and last name match Mulder and Scully. Lincoln apolgioizes to her as he was acting like a dork too.

They go to the cell they need to check and ask for Victor Creel. They ask for his help and that Lydia mentioned that whatever killed his family may have returned to kill them. Both of them cling to each other when they see Victor's eyes being gouged out.

Victor explain the to the two back In 1959, he and his family bought a nice house in Hawkins and everyone fell in love with other than his son Henry. Lincoln and Lydia say to themselves One. Lincoln and Lydia are told by Victor about mutliated animals corpses, nightmareish visions and that a demon that he suspected to have haunted the house murdered his wife by breakng bones and popping her eyes. He was tormented by a vision of something he did during WWII and found his daughter dead and Henry in a coma. Lincoln asks Lydia did she suspect the tale would be this dark, Lydia states  she suspected something was up.

The kids learn that Victor went catatontic and humming a song in madness after trying to kill himself and destorying his eyes in the process. Lincoln tells Lydia that they need to wrap it up as someone is hearing them and they head off.

Lincoln and Lydia are back outside with files in Lydia's hand and she is asked on them by Lincoln who himself is  thinking about the music he was humming and theoriezesthat music can reach the mind in a way word cannot and can used to save people from death at the hands of whatever The Mind Flayer is doing. Lydia takes his word despite the theory being unsual, she shows Lincoln something she found herself in the office.

Lydia gives consueling documents she found, Lincoln isn't sure if Lydia should have done that and Lydia says that this could help further with what they need. The two look at the papers and learn that Victor Creel's family was killed not in an unique way but the files of some teens are shown and that were killed the exact same way. Lydia shows Lincoln that she noted that each of them have bad headaches, nosebleeds, and nightmares of the past before they died, and they died days after such diagonsis and if they see a halluncation, that means death is knocking on the door.

Lincoln also shows Lydia that something else he noted was that Victor said Henry was in a coma and not killed the same way and why would he be attacked differntly. Lydia states unless Henry killed them himself.

Lincoln and Lydia then realize the pattern, The Mind Flayer is preying on previous Traumas while inducing fear and anxity. Each time those who died experineces physical pain and nightmares as well as depression. When the Flayer coloses in they re-experience the traumatic life events and the worst possible result is to kill oneself. Lincoln states they need to get the Creel House immedaitley however they are stopped by Kamela, Mulder and Scully.

Mulder knew Lincoln and Lyida were up to something. Scully explains that were trying to protect the two of them and Kamela thankfully knew the two would going to do something. Lincoln and Lydia tried to defend themselves, the agents state they are heading back to Loch Loud. Mulder does ask what the two found out on what they were looking into, Lincoln states unfathomable horror. Scully and Kamela both look unerved as Lydia menitoned what she and Lincoln overheard about the Mind Flayer respectfully. Though they keep certain aspects to themselves.

Lincoln, Lydia, Kamela, Mulder and Scully get back into the castle and this is it becomes obvious that the place is haunted as Kamela and Mulder see ghosts haunting the castle.

Lincoln, Lydia, Mulder and Scully all get The Arggh kit and use to suck up plenty of the ghosts

Lincoln, Lydia, Kamela, Grime, Ford, Jauna, Crowley and Truman all still decide to go after them and the ghosts of The Chairman. Lydia with Crowley's help goes against Dagmar and while the two are more successful against Dagmar than others could be. Similar to Grime, Lydia is quick to figure this is a distraction and goes off to get The Dragon guardian which the others take note of, even though the abominations do slow them down.

The rest of the team arrive back and see the deceased dragon and the spihoned magic items. Lincoln sadly looks at Leia and swears that He'll find some way to bring a dragon back. Lydia and Hilda both look at Lincoln and comfort him despite Hilda's jealously.

Ford asks Lincoln and Lydia what are they holding from them. Mulder, Scully and Kamela nod to the two as does Truman.

Lincoln and Lydia tell the others what they found on The Mind Flayer and reveal everything apart from the fact that they visited Victor Creel and his family. Ford as well as Jauna and Grime and Sasha feel it may be important to try to get the info towards Marcy and Sid. Angus keeps them reminded that they had a ghost attack as a distraction, he figured it came from Haunted Island at the work of The Chairman.

Lincoln, Lydia, Deathstroke, Mike, Gus, Kamela, Mulder and Scully are all meeting about what the former two told the crew and that it may be wise to look into what consitutes the event that happens.

Lincoln and Lydia notice how MIke and Gus aren't calling them on their secrey, Deathstroke states the two of them appreciate the discretionary they are using.

Lincoln and Lydia both discuss the fact how close they were to be found out. Lincoln tells Lydia that apart from Victor Creel and the info on him, they at least know everything. Lydia reminds him of the house the Creels were that Henry felt uncomfortable and feels next time they have time, they're going to the house to get some clues. The two state with Larke and Truman being the contacts to Sid, they can see if anyone in their team may be targeted next by The Mind Flayer.

Ford and Hilda both find the two and advise them that they will be heading to Haunted Island next in the morning and that the crew will be ready. Lincoln and Lydia are told by Ford to get some sleep as they will need to be ready and not to sneak out.

Angus calls Lincoln and Lydia aside and states that the two are going to come clean at some point and that Larke and Troy both know what they've done and yet are keeping it to themselves. Lincoln asks Angus which thing, Angus tells Lincoln that the thing that he knows as well. Lydia asks Angus is he coming along with them to Haunted Island, Angus tells her that he has the River Boat Queen all repaired and that he's busy but will do what he has to do. He's working on the funeral for Leia and asks if they can find those special flowers that they gave for Linka. The Two think on this, and say they'll do what they can.

Chapter 2

Lincoln and Lydia are in their own cabin room, looking at the notes they undercovered at the hopsital. Lincoln being present with Luz and Anne during the former's mention looks at what happened to the people shown in the notes, and asks Lydia if she caught on to something

Lydia questions him and Lincoln states that these people were tormented the same way, Luz, Amity and Hunter aere being tormented. Lincoln adds if they don't stop it, the 3 will eventually be claimed and killed. Lydia getting it states is this what Victor's son is planning to do, and Lincoln nods.

Lydia thinks back on what Brenner said and despite their agenda being different from his, he knows they can stop Henry if he was killed. Lincoln and Lydia both check a DnD set and look up The Mind Flayer, The Demogorgon and then Vecna. Lincoln suspects Vecna is Henry Creel/One whatever they have to call him. Lydia thinks so too as grandfather clocks and chimes were present on each kill and there was one at the Creel House, as she had the Brown kids go check.

Lincoln takes out his scrap book of their adventures, and asks if she has a camera on stand by. He relfects on their trips when dealing with Toffee, Loch Loud and the temples, Sinnoh, Johto, The Cabin and more. He lies on Lydia's lap with his head and looks at her smiling, and Lydia smiles at him. Lydia tells him with her hands cradling his head close to her own saying of course, and considers it like a memory book for them to look back on. Lincoln is determined to ensure Vecna is taken out of and that maybe they should ask Ford about it, Lydia agrees and says that Vecna and Belos won't beat them as the two are basically starring into the other eyes.

This is when Truman and Larke come in and the two stop what they're doing. Larke and Truman ask on what have the two been looking into. Lincoln tells the two that they have been looking into what Luz said. Truman tries Lydia and she just simply tells him that they suspect that it has something to with D&D what's going on after them.

Truman buys this, though Larke isn't so sure, though doesn't mention this as she admits crazier things have happened and that Truman, Lydia and Lincoln are on to something.

Lydia gets defensive when Larke points out what she as doing  saying they just took a nap and woke up staring each other in the eye. Lincoln whispers good safe to her. Lincoln and Lydia decide to tell Ford their suspcison as Larke and Truman watch.

Lincoln and Lydia show Ford the D&D game and state their theory as Anne, Crowley and Cricket are there too. Ford agrees to this idea and thinks that it's very likely if the Mind Flayer and Demogorgons are real then who's to say Vecna is. Crowley shares this view too but inquires about the former two which Ford, Lincoln, Lydia and Anne tell him about their dealing with The Upside Down

Cricket does quesiton something the other 5 miss, why target Luz, Amity and Hunter?,

Lincoln and Lydia are aware but they were instructed by Dr.Owens and Brenner to not let anyone in the loop about Vecna/Henry Creel/One.  The two do answer that it's seems that it's all about teens like it's from a Nightmare on Elm Street movie.

Lydia, Crowley and Lincoln rember the place and notice it looks more haunted than before.

Upon arrival Mrs.Grungle shows up immediatly with Jinx and they set up a ploy on the team. Everyone is sent in different directions by Grungle who also used some of Rowena's magic on Crowley. Jinx manages to get the others down and Mrs.Grungle does her magic on the heroes.

However Hilda, Lydia and Lincoln are not attacked by the magic as they are saved somehow by another creature that flies the three away from the site.

Lincoln wakes up in another part of the island and sees both Hilda and Lydia with him. Lincoln asks them what happened. This is when the bat arrives and introduceshimself as Flap.

Lydia gets up herself and asks who is he talking to.

Flap talks to Lydia and states that they're on the other side of Haunted Island, Horror Land an amusement park of the haunted variety and that people never come back from here or are made into attractions or  helpers of the park. Lydia states well that isn't happening to them. Flap sees it in both of them and tells Lincoln and Lydia that he knows a way out and can help them throught the park.

Lydia and Lincoln agree to this, though they wonder where Hilda is.

Lincoln, Lydia and Flap arrive to see Hilda's torment and Lincoln jumps in to save Hilda with Lydia using the Stones to keep Vecna laid down though she can't see him, she can feel his presence. Flap helps Lincoln save Hilda and Hilda is panickly with Lincoln trying to hold her down and tell her to snap out of it.

Lydia and Flap watch as Linc does so. Lydia approaches Hilda and Lincoln after calming her down. Hilda tells Lincoln and Lydia she saw it, the same thing Luz, Amity, Hunter saw. Lydia knew it as she had a feeling he was around, Lincoln tells Lydia, that Henry must be purusing her for some reason

Hilda tells Lydia and Lincoln that she hallunicated the events of her deal with the Trundle. Lydia not hearing about The Trundle questions this being. Hilda adresses that The Trundle was something she dealt with a while ago with her friends, her mom and Jauna, she felt reponsible for her actions  that led to something bad to Jauna. Lincoln and Lydia both talk back to themselves and state that Vecna must be after Hilda for that reason, Hilda was chosen due to being withdrawn about her issues, just like Hunter in regards to the Emperor, Amity to her mother and whatever Luz has an issue. Lincoln states that it must target people who have trauma and repressed truama at that,Lydia adds and that they keep it to themselves, hence why Henry didn't target either one of them directly.

Lydia, Lincoln and Hilda all follow Flap around the park knowing that the bat is right.

Lincoln, Lydia, Hilda are led by Flap to the Carnival of Screams which is their first area Flap needs to take them. Flap shows them the rides of Calamity Canyon, Wheel of Misfortune, HorrorLand Derby, Monster Mash, Dead Ringer,Bumper Carnage and the closed rides of

Ghost Train, Terrible Teacups, Ferris Squeal. Lydia realizes that they will need to ride each ride to get to the next part of the area. Lydia,Lincoln, Hilda and Flap go up the Calamity Canyon by climbing and avoding traps. Then head to the wheel of misfortune which is torture for the trio as they get trapped multiple times, requiring Flap to save them.

Then the Horroland Derby in which the three are chased by The Soviet Demogorgon once again as Lincoln notices it and they run away in the derby despite it's quick speed and Lydia using the Gauntlet to try and slow it down. Then they deal with the remaining rides before heading to the House of Mirrors

Lincoln, Lydia, Hilda and Flap all head into where Hilda is suffering headaches and a nose bleed. Lydia, Lincoln and Flap notice this and the former two realize Henry/Vecna/One's curse is doing it's toll on Hilda.

They go through the darkest isles with Flap leading them as Lincoln, Hilda and Lydia moving slowly and scared that they are going to be attacked. Flap tries to calm them down, but they  jump looking at the eyes in the shadows.

Flap advises the three that they need to go down the river and considers the open casket. Hilda, Lydia and Lincoln enter it. As they set down the river, Lincoln shows HIlda what he and Lydia looked into. Hilda is questioning this and Lydia tells her that they noticed she's having a headache and nose bleed. Hilda asks how will this help, Lincoln says that the file indicates that everyone who was killed by whatever she saw had nose bleeds and headaches

Flap admits for such a horrorland, the cruise is nice, Lydia feels something is going to happen as something is too good. This is proven when the casket slams shut on the three. Lincoln, Hilda and Lydia are scared and spiders crawl on them with Lincoln in Lydia's hands as he is really scared. Hilda, Lincoln, Lydia and Flap all do their darnest to try and escape the coffin,

Flap is sucessful and the three crash into a rock sending them flying into Werewolf Village where Flap advises that this is the next way through and that the werewolves won't harm them as they're passive. Kikmora though nearly starts a fire following them as Carmilla tried to murder them with the casket ploy.

Lincoln, HIlda, Flap and Lydia head into the forest where the fire follows them as they run, Carmilla has vampires set to eat and them in Vampire Village.

The Wild fire catches up and Lincoln trips almost to be killed, HIlda goes to save him, though Lydia steps in and uses the reality stone to stop the fire with water. Lydia and Hilda drag Lincoln up by his hands and Flap continues to lead the way to Vampire Village

Carmilla and vamps follow the three and try to eat them alive, but that's not all 2 Demogorgons appear, The Soviet One and the regular one and more demo bats and demodogs appear. Lincoln takes out his David Steele and Ace Savry kit, Lydia gets her Infinity Guantlets and the stones and Hilda eqips her sword that Lincoln was holding on, The three dash at the Upside Down Dictizens.

Lincoln, Lydia and Hilda are succesfull against the Demo dogs and Demobats.Though HIlda is once again distracted  by Vecna's actions, pretending to see The Trundle trying to kill Lincoln and she rushes to save him.

Lydia watches and decides a full play and uses 4 of the stones to get rid of the Upside Down residients and blind  the Soviet Demogorgon from them. SHe hands the other 2 to Lincoln to help deal to save Flap

Afterwards, Flap leads Lincoln, Hilda and Lydia throught the Yellow Road they leads to the Fever Swamp which is a waterish park. Flap leads them through the swimming pond with alligatiors. It's remarkably warm, Lincoln notes this wanting to just lie there and floats to the other side with Flap helping as he just settles in

Hilda and Lydia both look at him, and Lincoln's dorkness is endaering to the two of them. Lydia inquires Hilda about what happened back there. Though Hilda is annoyed Lydia is intereveting with things, she notes how seriously The Trundle was for her and decides to tell the truth. Lydia joins Lincoln and Flap and tells HIlda to join them, Hilda decides to as the three float to the end.

Hilda tells Lydia and Lincoln that she thought she saw The Trundle and it's like it came back and tried to attack Lincoln. Lydia adds that it should be dead right, Hilda states on top of these nightmares she has, she also had occasional hallunications. Lincoln asks Lydia about Luz, Amity and Hunter. Lydia says she heard nothing from them, Hilda just wants to enjoy the warm water  and three relax.

Flap advises the three that they are now here in Mad Labs with a theme of Mad Scientist aspect and the three follow the bat thorough it and the three go on the rides and come out find leading them to Terror Tombs.

This is an area filled with Mummies and they chase the three thinking they defiled though it's revealed The Blot took the scarpaes to insure Jauna is trapped in his secret. The Mummies and Blot manage to catch the three.

Jauna, Mulder and Scully show up right in time to save them and the six proceed to fight The Blot who also made ink like henchmen.

Mulder and Hilda come back out with Jauna to Lincoln, Lydia and Scully. Mulder and Scully hand Jauna some healing items as they watch for the others

Lincoln and Lydia ask Jaune about the Wolf thing, Hilda and Jaune both come to the two and reveal that it came again down to The Trundle. Lincoln and Lydia listen carefully as Hilda tells them about the Mountain King Incident,

Lydia tells Jauna what else. Jauna states he risks his life to protect the family he made his own, it would have been too much for him, he accepted any eye, during the surgery. He just didn't realize it would make him a wolf. Lydia tells Hilda her father figure is pretty cool, she thinks about asking about Hilda's actual father. Hilda has no idea about her actual father.

Lincoln, Lydia and Hilda are trusted by Jauna to keep this to themselves, Joanna, Mulder and Scully.

Mulder and Scully agree to his term and the six see Ford and head off.

Lincoln and Lydia see Flap and they tell the bat to follow them as Flap could be targeted by Belos like Leia could have been. Flap agrees and follows them.

Afterwards, Ronnie Anne, Cricket, Ford, Lydia, Lincoln and Hilda fall asleep as they seem tired with Ford, Cricket and Ronnie Anne all sleep individually, with Lincoln falling asleep on Lydia's shoulder and Hilda rests on his.

Chapter 3

Later at night, everyone has gone to sleep and is snoozing away, Lydia however wakes up to smelliing something, She smells macaroni and cheese and goes down. She states Ronnie Anne she knew was going to do the cooking but it's 1 am. She sees Lincoln doing so and questions why he's up so late

Lincoln agrees but he hasn't been able to sleep due to this thing regarding Hilda and Vecna. Lydia understands where he's coming from pointing out that Luz is under this danger too.

Lincoln takes out macaroni and chesse bites his favorite and asks does she have the notes on what they found. Lydia does and they sit down outside.

Lydia shows Lincoln that she found something about how to potentially escape Vecna's clutches, She recalled that Victor managed to escape Henry's cruse with music. Lincoln asks are they calling him One, Vecna or Henry, Lydia states it's up to him. She goes on to state that Victor escaped from his curse to the song Dream a Little Dream of Me by Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong as it was heard on the radio.

Lincoln asks how does that even work, Lydia states that she'll get there and Lincoln decides to look into what he found on Vecna's Curse

He tells Lydia that it's method of torturing and killing people. It seems his targets are particularly traumatized, mentally ill or insecure individuals. Lydia states and Amity, Luz and Hunter have all been this, but thinks of Hilda's for a while she knows Hilda was scarred by Trundle but they can't be it. Lincoln does state that she was scarred yes, but something else could have a hand.

Lincoln tells Lydia that Vecna is wearing them down with hallunciations and making see apparitions like black widow spiders, the same ones they saw in Horror Land. He also mentions visions tailored to fear and history, after Vecna tortures them long enough he murders them, he makes them levitate before snapping their limbs and gouging out their eyes.

Lydia gaps realizing he almost killed Amity this way, Lincoln states it gets worse, because of the psychic connection created, a gate opens where he killed them to bleed the Upside Down Dimenison in with their own.

Lincoln then inquires Lydia about music and she explains that music can reach parts of the brain that words can't. It could be the key.

Lincoln states he's worried about Hilda and to him it's unusal she would have this happen, and suspects that maybe something else is causing this like being insecure about something. He thinks on something but dismisses it as she has friends, a loving family and more. Lydia doesn't get it either but states Trundle has a hand in this somehow. Lincoln states they will have to tell the others about all this, Lydia states she ain't so sure because Ford will go on their cases potentially for sneaking out and she and Linc aren't trying to upset Ford.

Lincoln puts his arm on Lydia and says that as she rests her head on him that they will explain things and they'll work on it.

As the two share a tender moment, they hear their names and all of a sudden it's Henry Creel

Lydia tosses Lincoln a Gauntlet and 3 stones so they can confront Vecna. They state what is he doing here. Vecna taunts them that he knows they're looking for him, asking how was his dumb old blind father and that he has been busy

Lincoln angered accuses Vecna of how can he do that to his own family and Vecna tells Lincoln why does he cry for his family?, They hurt him, took advanatge of him, thought he was bad luck, the sister protocol and states Lincoln doesn't need his family despite what he thinks. Lincoln states he got past that, Vecna then goes to Lydia saying what about her friends losing touch with her, or her family abadoning her after her parents were commited. Lydia gives a tranquil approach saying it was his own fault.

Vecna states neither of them needed their parents and he knows they are scared just like he was, and being different is like being alone. He goes on to say he was "broken" and something was wrong with him and that a change of scenery was the cure. He did find something there, spiders that he finds fascinating. He sees Spiders as gods that immoblize and feed on weak bringing order to an damaged ecosystem

Lincoln and Lydia both roll their eyes unamused and Vecna holds both with his hand. He comments humanity has been posioning the world and enforcing made up rules. He compares life to a silly, terrible play, he decided not to join in and make his own rules

As Vecna continues he horrifying the two, with his animal cruelty, showing how he murdered his family. Saying that were horrible people, mocking his father's view a demon was behind this, yet his mom knew and wanted to lock him away. With every life he took, he became more powerful  and even though he was free, he was placed in that medocire scientist's care Dr.Martin Brenner

Lydia and Lincoln realize Brenner was right on Henry completely, and then they see something, Pyrrha Nikos's mangled corpse. They put it together that it was Vecna who killed her directly and not the demo bats Jaune claimed.

Vecna said he tried to prey on Jaune, but some one got him out of it a Miss.HIlda as he puts it and decides he will settle for her daughter in turn. Lincoln uses 3 of the stones to attack Vecna saying he won't do so on his watch and Lydia uses the 3 stones she has to do this.

Vecna isn't as invincible and does get damaged, but he reminds them that he will be watching and knows Hilda's shining Knight in Armor won't always be there to protect her, and that her state of mind will make her easy to pick out like a weed.

Lincoln and Lydia both taking a breath to realize what they saw, and the sigh of Pyrrha has Lincoln say the team must know and Lydia unflinchly agrees. Though she questions how will they explain this, Lincoln states that they'll work on it together.

Ford tells them he found the possible link, in who is behind this on HIlda, Luz, Amity and Hunter. Hilda eager asks Ford who is it, Mulder and Scully join the crew the picture they have and it's Vecna.

Lincoln and Lydia both look and state to themselves that he looks nothing like what they encountered last night or what Brenner told them about him.

Scully states her foundings came from having to settle down and playing with them though she questions that Vecna is trying to become a god by klling kids.

Lincoln and Lydia speak up and state because that's not his plan, he want to merge the Upside Down with their world and invade them by wiping out humanity. Mulder, Scully and Ford look at them as the latter two realize Mulder was right

Ford asks and how did they know, did they sneak out again?, Lydia tells Ford no they stayed on

Lydia states she and Lincoln have known for a bit, they learned his real name, his backstory, nearly everything. She explains that his real name is Henry Creel and another alias is One and that he is demon made of human orgin, who has been trying to escape The Upside Down and have it bleed in to their world

Sasha asks how long were they holding off on this, Lydia tells them until they could figure out what to say. Ford asks who could have told that kind of stuff, Lydia states both Vecna and Martin Brenner. Mulder recongizes the latter as he mentioned Dr.Owens gave him the adoption papers for Lydia so he and Scully can be her legal guardians.

Truman, Mulder and Scully add that they also had an encounter with that beast themselves in a Russian cell. Lincoln and Lydia both pause a bit. Lincoln whispers to her, that it looks they're weren't the only ones who knew.

Ford talks to Lydia and tells her that he only worries because he won't be around forever and knows she is constantly sneaking off with Lincoln without anyone knowing and Ford isn't angry he just doesn't want to see Lydia get herself hurt or in trouble in a way he can't solve. Ford admits Mulder is more open about this than him, but he just wants to Lydia not to care careless and try to handle things with only Lincoln. Lydia sheepishly admits she isn't doing this on purpose, she just finds the trouble and Lincoln and her both usually if not always like to do it together as they like making memories for themselves . Lydia shows Ford her photo book and Ford states he was like that when Ford was Lydia's age, and looks back how innocent those days were and Ford softly adresses that Lydia should use discretion more, Considering this happened in Loch Loud and when The Unowns appeared.

Lincoln and Lydia regroup and ask if Ford and Ronnie Anne were told what were needed to be told and they said they did on what they knew about Vecna, his abilities, his plans nearly everything. Lydia asks did Lincoln mention that other thing, before Lincoln can. Hilda stops the two and asks what is Lincoln holding as Jauna suspected they knew something about what was after her. Lincoln and Lydia stare at each other and Lydia starts to say that Mrs.Hilda is partial to why this is happening when Hilda tells Lydia curtly that she wasn't talking to Lydia. Lincoln has some trouble explaining to Hilda, trying to tell her that Vecna was preying on her more than just for Trundle. Lydia gives Lincoln a supportive nod, and Lincoln asks if Hilda is insecure about anything, Hilda states never, she's the definition of secure and she can handle anything. Lincoln tells Hilda that he suspects she has insecurities about some matters hence why Vecna might be targetting her.

Hilda tells Lincoln she is composed, fine and not worrying at all, The Trundle incdient was a one time thing. Lydia interupts Hilda saying to get Jaune here so they can talk to him, Hilda inquires about what, Lydia states Pryytha NIkos. Hilda gets Jaune and he sees the two saying that He knew the two knew something, but he didn't want to push them.

Lincoln and Lydia take a deep breath and ask Jaune about Pryytha Nikos and tell him that Demobats didn't kill her, Vecna did. Jaune and Hilda both pause at this, Lincoln addresses that Pryytha was murdered the way  Vecna kills all his targets, he burned out the eyeballs to leave the victim blind. snapping the arms and legs into obscene shapes, breaking every bone in the body (and to be clear, the victim can feel everything). Finally, to finish the victim off... Vecna caves in their skull.

Jauna is horrfied at this and asks how they saw it, Lydia tells him Vecna showed them this and Jauna was going to be his target until he met Mrs. Hilda.

Lincoln, Lydia, Ford, Anne and Cricket decide that they with the mountains being their next stop, they are going to have to split the work in 2 seperate paths. Lincoln asks what lies there in the mountains, Ford states There are 2 particular magic musicial boxes here that can help in treasure chests.

Lydia and Lincoln look at each other and decide that they want to split the work among themselves. Each of them decide they work with half of the team to hunt the magic music boxes. Lincoln wants to see if Hilda is recpetive to the music box, Lydia states she proably should. She asks Angus about this and Agnus states it matches.

Lincoln and Lydia both look at the map and agree to see if Hilda will do so, The Two look in each other's eyes with a meaningful look as they state to see them on the other side.

Ford and Lydia have Anne, Truman, Mulder, Sasha and Cricket to come along for the ride in turn

Anne, Lincoln, Lydia and Ford all are ready for action as Anne draws out her blade, Lydia draws the Infinity Gauntlet, Ford draws his ray gun and Lincoln decides to go David Steele on this.

Meanwhile with Lydia, Ford, Anne, Truman, Mulder, Cricket and Sasha they all going through the other part of the mountain. Ford inquires Lydia on his concerns he mentioned and states that he and Mulder both are showing concern on this whole Vecna thing.

Lydia asks what about it, Ford feels she's digging too much into Vecna, over her parent's insutaltization and Amanda and Cleo's deaths in part being caused by Vecna's actions. Lydia denies this saying she's just trying to stop him due to the damage he can cause, not revenge. Mulder states but why and how, Lydia states she doesn't want others suffering from Henry and her and Lincoln will do what they have to.

Truman adds in saying that she owns Hilda nothing for the way Hilda has treated her as of late and inquires why her and Lincoln solely kept it to themselves. Lydia states Hilda has been troublesome but she is still her friend and that both her and Lincoln agreed to look into the situation with Henry and they had some friends look into the actual Creel Family. But Brenner wanted this to between just them

Ford asks about this Martin Brenner, Lydia says he's dead techianally neither her or Lincoln really trusted him but did agree to finish the job regarding Henry for him.

Truman, Mulder and Ford here that out and state that they have a feeling something is here and Lydia agrees as she senses Demogrgons. The three don't doubt her and tell Sasha, Anne and Cricket to follow behind

Anne states if they're being followed wouldn't  that be a problem in a mountain and how fragile it is. The others agree, though Truman and Cricket both feel Lydia could just repair with the stones. Lydia annoyed, state she is not a instant fix things just because she has the infinity stones, it takes a good deal of her. She says as she eats a sandwich.

Lydia, Ford, Truman and Mulder all run directly into a bunch of Demogrgons and one being the Soviet one that both Lydia and Mulder encountered at certain points. This is when Abomdinations show up and grab them and this is when Odalia appears.

Odalia is holding up the music box in her hands taunting them how to managed to get her hands on this music box she stole off the other guardian the black hound. Lydia unhesistantly frees them with the Power Stone and the other 3 attack The Abominations

Lydia and Truman use their weapons to allow Ford and Mulder to go try and get the Music Box from Odalia. Anne, Cricket and Sasha show in this as they all attack Odalia,

Truman and Lydia both chase down the Demogrogons as well as take out many of the regular ones as well as Demobats as well. Truman notes Vecna must have been here in turn.

Lydia states she figured, as she kills a Demorgon with a Reality Stone snap.

Ford and Mulder continue fighting with Odalia for the music box, and almost get it into Odalia summits The Soviet Demogrgon off Truman and Lydia to keep it form doing so.

Lydia, Truman, Anne, Cricket and Sasha are content as they head out with Odalia being buried under the rocks and the Demogrgons have fled off.

Lydia seems content to this for all it's worth

Truman asks is she though, and that things could get worse before they can get better. Lydia is more optimsitic as is Anne and Sasha as they clearly have stunned that Soivet Demogrgon

Lydia admits now that is something she is pessmitic about that. Anne asks why is she, and Lydia states that both her and Mudler have dealt with it before. Anne reassures Lydia that while the latter is strong and has the Infinity Gauntlets, her and Sasha can deal with it when it comes back.

The Whole Crew all meet back up with the boxes. Angus and Flap call them and see they got the music boxes.

Lydia and Mulder see Lincoln, Scully and Hilda who the latter is still in wound from her gun shot. Scully states she treated Hilda, she's doing much better but does still have the bullet wound in there. Lydia decides to use the Mind Stone to open up the wound and get the bullet. Lincoln asks if she really can do so, Lydia has confidence but will be careful. Hilda refuses Lydia's Help not wanting to be in Lydia's shadow again, though she does thank Scully for the surgery and does at least have the courtsy to tell Lydia that The Demogrgons were as dangerous as they seem and does thank her for coming through with that Demogrgon.

Lincoln goes to Lydia and inquires about how they are going to inform Hilda's mom about Vecna targeting Hilda. Lydia states that Jaune can do just that, she does feel Ms.Hilda should be kept in the loop despite Hilda's overconfidence and that she did lock her mom multiple times out of the loop before

Lincoln states she took a bullet for him, and that the 2nd major time that someone saved his life while looking at Lydia as he said that. Lydia nods understanding as they will do so, but inquires if Ms.Hilda is ready for the other news. Lincoln says he'll tell her the full truth as Hilda hasn't been catching his cues.

Lydia pulls out the ocarina that she kept as a souvenir between her and Lincoln and states that they can use this to save Hilda, Luz, Hunter and Amity in case they find it. Lincoln even nods saying that no one can say they don't like what comes out of the ocarina.

Chapter 4

The gang all arrive in Trolberg as Hilda and Jauna lead the way to Hilda's house so they can get some help with their quest.

Jaune and Hilda see Lincoln with Lydia as they dicuss something between them and Hilda seethes a bit about what they are talking about.

Lincoln asks Lydia if she had gotten in contact with the other flying rhino junior High friends she has, Lydia says she has attempted too. They havn't said much as she states but Marcus has been more communicative and she suspects that Marcus's possession in regards to Vecna may play a factor as she heard from the Snarkus family that he has been a bit wierd. Maybe he is going to be used by Vecna to go after Luz, Hilda, Amity and Hunter, as Lincoln suspsects so he has to potentially keep Hilda away from Marcus in case he takes control. Lydia has an idea for them to go out and track down each of them and see if something is up. Lincoln warns that Ford and the adults are going on the case of the two for their constant sneak outs and Hilda has been asking too. Lydia recongizes this and says that they will tell someone but to find a loop around it.

The Crew arrives at home  to see Johanna who is surpised that Hilda and Juane brought the whole crew home. They all enter through the door and Ford aplogizes for them all coming and introduces Johanna to Cricket, Ronnie Anne, Crowley. Lincoln, Lydia and Truman all notice something and discuss themselves about Hilda's Mom or Mrs. Hilda putting on the pounds, though Lincoln can tell she's expecting. When Truman and Lydia ask, Lincoln states he knows from having younger siblings. Truman being more childish states what did Jaunna and Johanne actually do to get that to happen. Lydia states that he'll now when he gets older.

Mulder and Scully tells Lincoln, Truman, Hilda Cricket, Anne and Lydia that they will go out and see what they can find. The Others discuss how to apporach The Belos/Vecna threat and how to get around.

In Lydia's sleep bag, she and Lincoln are discussing how to procceed further with Vecna. Lydia yells Lincoln that Mulder and Scully don't seem to have a problem and think it's fine. Lincoln says is she really sure they're fine to it, as Mulder and Scully will let Lydia do things as long as she's reponsible.  Lydia had managed to call her friends and she  knows where they live now and she has the bikes ready as a car would be too supscious.Lincoln asks if they telll them about "us". Lydia states that the two will as long as they keep it secret which may work. Lincoln agrees and he is quick to say he'll drive, though Lydia cuts this off and says she'll do so . Lincoln thinks on asking Angus on this too so someone can know this apart from Mulder and Scully, Lydia sees Cricket and Ronnie Anne heading there and say and them.

Lincoln and Lydia show up and they tell Angus they're going to looking for the Tooles and Snarkus famiies to find more about Vecna. The three are suprised, Lincoln says that he and her are going to this ourselves. Angus asks if Lincoln has a play, Lincoln does and that the two will handle it themselves.

Cricket and Ronnie Anne inquire Lydia about her plan, Lydia puting on a bike helmet states that one of her friends may have a way to help them with Vecna and that she and Lincoln have been tracking this for a while. Lincoln admits that they should led the team help, but he needs more info about this to help the team and Hilda. The three ask why don't they focus on Belos too, Lincoln says that Belos seems more focused on Sid and co and Vecna is more after them.

Mulder phones up Lydia and she is heading back with Lincoln to the house. Mulder asks what the two found.

Lincoln tells Mulder, that he and Lydia went to see her Flying Rhino Friends as Lydia suspected a possession on Them in part to Vecna. Scully asks how they even found them, Lincoln states that they worked on it, and Lydia biked them there and she was nuts behind the wheel, Lydia adresses that she just was excited, so that's why they're riding a mattress on the river steam there and then Lincoln talked her into rollerskating home

Lincoln and Lydia have signed up off and on the mattress down the stream, Lydia asks if they have been acting too much like grown ups to him, Lincoln says they're nothing wrong with maturity but they are kids and should act their age which they do to be fair with bike riding and roller skating thing. Lydia states it's a good thing Mulder and Scully are as accepting as they are about this and did he remember to take photos, and Lincoln shows her them on his phone which Lydia says was perfect and that she has to be make sure Vecna didn't possess her other friends in case he tries to control them. Lincoln does explain to Lydia that they freed Marcus from his influence so what about the other two, Lydia states that they'll wait for anything suspicous.

Lincoln, Lydia, Ronnie Anne and Cricket all cross again. The latter two ask if Lincoln and Lydia got what they looked for, Lincoln states they did take some photos of it, Ronnie Anne sees them and states it looks like tadpoles. Lincoln states they're from the upside down and one was coughed up by a friend of Lydia's. Cricket asks did he eat one, Lydia states he didn't and it must be the work of Vecna's former posession and Marcus may be in trouble as well as her other friends.

Larke, Truman and Jaune meet up with Frida, David, Hilda and Joanna and inform them about the Trolls attacking Trolberg. Sasha and Anne went out to engage with them  and that Bells aren't keeping them at bay as Anne told them that they have headphones on their heads. Jaune then tells Hilda that Trundle has remerged once more, Hilda freezes up and screams causing Johanna, Frida and David to have to calm her down and keep her from going loose

Truman, Larke, Ronnie Anne and Cricket are instructed by Jaune to go with David as they take care of the rest with Hilda, Larke decides to lead on Jaune's request which he decides as he is capable yes, but wants to get through to Hilda to at least try to get her confidence. The 4 head out to Lydia and Lincoln's confusion as they have no idea what's going on. Lincoln states that was HIlda was screaming so loud about, Larke says yes she was and Jaune had to calm her down, they're helping get the trolls out any way possible. David takes the others with him.

Lincoln sees them leave and with Lydia they study their pictures but have to put it to rest with Joanna arriving to talk to the two and to see Jaune, Hilda and Frida.

Joanna talks to Lincoln and Lydia about what they know about this Vecna as she has noted Jaune and Hilda's fear of him. The two state what they know about his methods of killing, his previous work that they went against him, What Dr.Brenner told them and what he did to Jauna directly.

Lydia asks why them? and Joanna can tell the two that the two have dealt with their own trauma like Hilda and that they can approach this like she can. Lincoln agrees to this and Joanna tells them that Jaune, Frida and Hilda are waiting for them.

Lincoln, Lydia, Joanna come in the kitchen to see Hilda, Jaune and Frida and calm the former that they have this potentially in control, and that they have their bases turned in case. Lydia states that she and Lincoln have been working on the Vecna case for a while.

Lincoln tells Lydia that Hilda was trying to set up him and Lilly to live with Frida and so they can see each other and be together because of how dangerous Royal Woods and his Family. Lydia concedes Hilda is right about Royal Woods is and dealing with The Smoking Man proved it, she does state that his family isn't that bad apart from Lynn Jr at times.  Lincoln states that Hilda wanted to suprise him, Lydia gets it but Hilda is basically trying to get him to start a new life in Trolberg even though he has one in Royal Woods with his family and friends. Lincoln felt Hilda came on strongly, and while he likes her, Lincoln can't do that for her.  

Jaune tells Lincoln, Lydia, Hilda and Frida to come with him as they're going after Trundle, he turns into a wolf and the 4 all ride on him as they go looking for Trundle

As Jaune in lupin form runs to hunt Trundle with Lincoln, Lydia, Hilda and Frida on him they come across Larke and David.

Larke decides to come along too which Lincoln and Lydia agree to as they tell Larke they're hunting The Trundle with Jaune.

Hilda, Frida, David, , Lincoln, Lydia, and Jauna go hunting for Tezekel Kan and Trundle and Trundle finally makes his move on them and smashes Jauna out of his form. Hilda freezes up but Lincoln and Frida both have to snap her out of it. Lydia uses the power stone to send Trundle back before joining them.

Jauna recovers from the hit and tells Frida and David to prusue Tezkel Kan and he also notices Erik Alberg too. He will help Lincoln, Lydia and Hilda deal with Trundle as Lydia has her infininty stones ready, HIlda has a sword ready and Lincoln is ready to use his spy gear ready.

Trundle is physically overpowering them but Lincoln, HIlda and Lydia need to use trickery to get the drop with Hilda going physical and the other two going mental with Lincoln's spy weapons and Lydia uses the Power Stone and Mind Stone at the same time to hold Trundle down which ends up doing the trick to let Lincoln get the jump on him as Lydia uses the space Stone to teleport him on top.

Hilda attack his legs to keep him down and Jaune manages to get the Demogorgons pinned by taking advantage of their weakness to fire by luring them

Lydia, Lincoln and Hilda continue their fight with Trundle but it's clear Trundle is holding his ground and holds Hilda hostage intend to kill her as he crushes her body in his bare hands as he smacks Lincoln and Lydia aside.

Lydia sees Mulder and Scully and Lincoln sees Jauna and they basically work together to save Hilda by keeping Trundle distracted through their effort.

Trundle tries to kill the three as Lydia's infinity stones does actually hurt, Jaune protects the three and get them to safety.

Lincoln and Lydia who keep Hilda down recongize this and they make a plan, use The Reality Stone to stun Trundle and have Bells appear to do so. Mulder and Scully showed this right there so they need a way. Hilda decides she is going to do it which Lydia refuses because of Trundle strangling Hilda might have bad effects. Lincoln says he'll do it and Lydia agrees to let him do so, both exchange a nod as Lydia hands him the stone to do so as they both ask Hilda about trolls, and she tells them they hate light and bell sounds.

Lincoln arrives on the Trundle and Lydia then uses the Space Stone to get Bells and gives them to Mulder, Scully and Hilda who use bells to annoy Trundle and then Lincoln arrives on the Trundle and blinds him with the Reality Stone effects and Jaune keeps Trundle distracted to have him turned into a straight statue like he should be at day.

Lincoln then asks Ronnie Anne if she has her skateboard because they need to do this to the trolls. Ronnie Anne does and shows up with Cricket as they take Lincoln, Lydia, Mulder, Scully around town to stop the trolls.

seems off in Royal Woods. Lincoln asks is he sure, Flap told Lincoln  that he tried to use what was used to lure out any posessions in Royal Woods and that Clyde will help out any way possible but they will have to keep their connections. Clyde has been looking into Vecna for Lincoln as well as Emperor Belos and has been attempting to use Lisa's technology to find Luz and the others.

Lincoln says keep him noted, Lydia asks Lincoln if this was wise to get their respective universe friends involved. Lincoln tells Lydia that Vecna is someone that they should get Clyde and her fellow friends to help deal with Vecna as he won't figure out they're doing this. He states that Hilda has her family so they can do this so too. Lydia nods as Hilda is keeping her friends close now, so she agrees with this. The Two hold each other's hands and look in their respective eyes as Lincoln says that he never feels alone no matter who comes after them as he has always had one consistency. Lydia says her right, Lincoln says of course as they press each other's foreheads

Lydia comes home from their celebration and she hears Hilda scream homewrecker and she throws her notebook at Lydia's head. Lydia asks what was that for to Hilda, Hilda angered say she saw Lincoln and her and Lydia basically stole Lincoln from her. Lydia states she did not steal anything from HIlda. Hilda says that Lydia is why Lincoln is so heistant to live in Trolberg with Frida and branded her territory basically sabotaging her happiness as Hilda puts it. Lydia says Lincoln told her that she came on too strongly and yeah Hilda did ask a lot out of Lincoln.

Hilda basically says that Lydia should just go home and stick her teeth in a fence, Lydia coldly stares her down for that asking what she just say. Hilda states that Lydia heard her calling Lydia fence face and that she should just pick her teeth with a coat hanger and get a transplant for that face of hers. Lydia warns Hilda about this, Hilda challenges Lydia saying what she is  going to do, hit her?, she dares her and calls her Frankenstein. Hilda's deerfox Twig tries to convince Hilda not to do so but Hilda states something are more important

Lydia refuses to indudge Hilda until Hilda jumps on Lydia and tries to choke Lydia, and Lydia uses the Mind Stone to send Hilda packing and says if Hilda wants a fight she's getting one.

Lincoln, Johanna, Jaune, Mulder, Scully, Frida and David all return home as well and to their shock they see Hilda and Lydia fight. Mulder and Johanna both get their respective kids apart from each other and decide to have Lincoln talk to both of them as well as Johanna and Jaune talk to them too.

Lincoln then sees Lydia and asks what did Hilda do, Lydia tells him that HIlda threw her sketch book at her head, and insulted her situation with her braces while trying to choke her. Lincoln apologizes to Lydia for Hilda doing this and informs her that Hilda is aware of their relationship, Lydia states she bets Hilda is angry at both of them for this. Lincoln says that HIlda didn't make things easy as she always changed the subject before he could tell her, he was with Lydia. Hilda never teased them due to her own feelings for Lincoln as Lydia tells Lincoln and that when they met Cleo's Sister she acted this way herself. Lincoln says she acted that way only mildly and that this happened before they realized their feelings for one another.

Lydia questions Joanne about Hilda, and Joanne tells Lydia that Hilda has been stressed about the new half brother and half sister. Lydia questions this and Johanna tells Lydia it's actually twins and she just found out about this, Hilda doesn't know how to deal with that and considering she never knew about her father this caused more trouble. Lydia asks what happened to her, Joanna shows Lydia photos of her and Hilda's dad as she explains that the two weren't together long but did really love each other, Lydia notes he has blue hair and that explains why Hilda is the only person with that color. Joanna states that he was never in Hilda's life really, and that he wasn't a deadbeat or dead it's just he couldn't handle having a kid as they felt they were moving too fast, but with Frida and Jaune she does feel ready now.

Lydia states that doesn't excuse Hilda lashing out at her, Joanna says that Hilda has also been insecure about Lincoln's relationship with Lydia, she feels like a 3rd wheel and is frustrated with Lincoln's ability to confide in Lydia easier as well as everything she has heard about Lydia when Lincoln visited in Trolberg make her feel uneasy. Johanna admits that she has nothing wrong with her and Lincoln, if anyone other than Hilda was going to be with Lincoln, Lydia would be who. Johanna does admit she feels worried about the two like she does for Hilda as everything she has heard from them and asks if Lydia is really okay, Lydia states mostly though she does still have her own issues

Johanna, Lincoln, Lydia, Mulder and Scully all rush in as they help Johanna get there and Vecna shows himself to them scaring all of them.

Lincoln and Lydia both use the Infininty Stones to fight off Vecna. Vecna then decides to send them all back with his full psyhic powers. He then leviates Hilda in the air and Lincoln tells Jaune and the others that he is intending to kill HIlda, Jaune saves Hilda from Vecna's attempt and Lydia uses the mind stone to get Hilda safe, despite her differences with her for Johanna's sakes

Lydia tosses Lincoln the Infinity Stones to keep Vecna from doing more as Frida, Joanne and David toss more Cocktails at Vecna causing him to flee

Johanna, Mulder and Scully check Jaune's life pulse and note he is dead, Lincoln and Lydia decide to use the infinity stones to basically reboot his heart so he can still breath to not allow Vecna a defeat as Johanna and Hilda watch as they try to restart his heart that as soon as they had some happiness.

Lincoln and Lydia succeed at this, but Scully does check things and says Jaune is in a coma. Hilda cried which Joanna states he's not dead, he's just in a coma.

As Lydia, Lincoln, Ford, Hilda, Anne, Cricket, Ronnie Anne, Crowley, Truman, Larke, Mulder, Scully, Sasha, Grime, Frida and David all set off to leave to head to thier next destination as they have Jaune in the back resting as he is set up in the back with Larke and The FBI Agents setting him up carefully

Lincoln and Lydia discuss Vecna's latest attack and how powerful he was from their first fight. Lydia states that they at least were able to put up a real fight with Vecna, Lincoln states that at least they saved Hilda but is supcious that what happened with Jaune maybe techinally counts as he was legally dead until they resuscitated him. Maybe Vecna just needs to go after someone realted to his targets or even leave them comatoses.

With what happening to Jaune, Lydia and Lincoln manage to get a way to get into contact with Sid and warn her about what Vecna will do and that if the others are left legally dead for long enough it won't matter if Vecna actually kills them. She tells Sid how to get snap the others out of their trances when Vecna makes his move something that The Blights indeed listen to and use.

Chapter 5

Lincoln, Lydia and Ronnie Anne are called by Sid and she tells them she's okay and they have been trying to get in touch with her since Jaune was comatose and the attack of Hilda. As Ronnie Anne talks to Sid, both her and Lincoln discuss Vecna's plan and the Gates to the Upside Down opening up which meant they were right to suspect he would change his targets for the curse play.

Lydia discusses Pym Patricles with Truman, Larke and Lincoln, as well as girl stuff she did with Luz, Anne and Molly, though mostly guy stuff as she puts it as Luz and Anne have guy interests as well. She mentions how her and Lincoln got their hands on Pym Particles and how to use them as such leaving out certain details. Truman and Larke reveal that they are aware of Lydia's growing romance with Lincoln, seeing their dorky interactions and their interactions, while they deny it like usual. But the two admit this is true, after Larke tells them that they will keep the two's relationships secret. Lydia also tells Ford of of her theory of what Vecna did with the Upside Down.

She joins Lincoln in their mattress and they discuss alongside Clyde about what they managed to find and what he has done with them. Clyde helped look into what else they needed to find and stuff on the Comatose situation Jaune is in, as the two wanted to help save him of their own accord as they wanted to find a way to help Jaune. Clyde tells them they're expecting miracles and can't assume comas can be helped, he does suggest that the way to save Jaune is to keep him safe from anything potentially crazy, Lincoln tells him that they're going to the Creel House in Hawkins. Clyde states he'll get back to them later as he will go get Marcus

Lincoln asks if Lydia gave Clyde the keys to the treehouse and she states she did. Then they discuss the Hilda situation about they should let her settle down, before they talk to her and Lydia asks if the two were responsible to the fall out Hilda had with them, which Lincoln states they tried to tell Hilda but she didn't help her case, but Hilda didn't really tease them unlike others. They also discuss the Pym Particles and Lang about how to explain how they received them. Lastly they discuss Larke and Truman knowing about them being girlfriend and boyfriend. Lincoln tells her that Troy helped him sort his feelings out for her, which Lydia suspected but had nothing wrong with it, as he decided to accept help from someone who knew his stuff. The two then lie there in thought before sleeping.

Before Ford and the others leave, Mulder winks giving a subtle hint that the two doing this would be fine by him. Lydia then has Sasha's approval with this as she heads off with Truman, Lincoln and Larke. Frida and David then join them as well as the two inform them they are going to the Creel House as some of Vecna's history lies there. Lincoln calls Clyde and hands him to Frida so they can discuss their own theories on this as with Lincoln. The group goes to the Creel House and investigate.

Lincoln and her stare at the clock in front of them, this is what the duo remember what Henry told them about his past. This is when they notice spiders which they see drawing and that they look like The Mind Flayer. The two realize that when Henry was banished by the subject that send him there, this is how he made the Mind Flayer and led to everything in Hawkins back in the 80s. Clyde infroms the two that he has found something at the hopsital that is unsettling and that they should go check. Before the two do so, Henry arrives and tries to kill them with Bianca and The Chairman. Lydia sends Lincoln to go after the Chairman as she settles for Henry with Truman, she keeps Creel at bay with the stones and even saves Truman from nearly be killed. Lydia then heads off to help Larke with Bianca and Troy, She makes Bianca bleed with the Gauntlet and saves Larke who tries to talk Troy out of this action and then protects Larke from Troy as Bianca takes him away and lords her superority over Troy, Bianca then taunts Lydia about Hilda and how she nearly had Hilda kill her.

After this she sees Lincoln going to the hopsital like Clyde said and Lydia joins him. The two of them investigate and find mutants mutated from The Upside Down which are patients that Vecna forced to fuse with the creatures. Lydia and Lincoln both freak out and Lydia steels herself with the Gauntlets and hands Lincoln one so they can fight off the mutants. They continue to investigate and actually see mutations occur in front of them. They compare this to the rats they saw last time, except both Lincoln and her see people melting and alive to form monsters who try to attack them, while they do manage to destroy them and notice a half broken human femur. They escape continuing to fight more mutant monsters as they escape the hopsital

Deathstroke finds them there and vaguely informs them that they aren't alone dealing with this as he help deals with the mutant monsters made from Vecna's influence. The two get away with Deathstroke who escorts them back to the others. Upon learning about Castelvania being their destination, which both Lydia and Lincoln feel it's child play after what they saw as well thinking to what happened to those who were flayed back when they fought about the Mind Flayer. The two then get the chip Mulder and Scully found which they know exactly what it was for.

Chapter 6

She is brought in by Larke alongside Lincoln to save Troy from Bianca, as Larke notes that with the Infinity Gauntlet she doesn't make Bianca going through her that easy. As Larke goes to get Crowley. She and Lincoln discuss Vecna and his intents for them and Hilda, how to use the chip on him that Mulder and Scully found and Clyde's role in all this.

Crowley joins the three as he knows about the demon hex, and the two intend to use to get Troy. Before heading off, Lydia tells Scully where's she going not unlike Hilda and Johanna. Scully wishes her to be careful which she does, Lincoln notes this, with the intent to save Troy from Bianca, the 4 head off

The 4 team group go for their own Castlevania related challenges remiscent to the 1st game respectfully. Afterwards, Lincoln and herself set up the demon hex before Troy and Bianca show up with Bianca. She handles Troy with the stones as Lincoln uses some of his own uncovential tactics. Through a good deal of determination, they trap Demon Troy and switch out opponents.

Lincoln tells Lydia he can handle Rowena, Lydia agrees to this and she goes to get Troy with Larke and Crowley. While dealing with Bianca who is trying to stop the exocrism from taking effect. Because the Infinity Stones are as powerful as they are and Lydia's knowledge on them, she is successful in preventing Bianca from stopping the exocrism and reverts Troy to normal

Lydia goes to get Lincoln after he watching Rowena be killed, and she and him see Belos in the flesh. Finally coming head to head with the head of the empire, She and Lincoln fare against Belos, she does do better than Lincoln does before getting swatted and the two catch something of note. Larke and Truman are told by Lincoln and Lydia of what they found and they learn of Ford setting a course to The Boiling Isles. The 4 put together that Belos was only recruiting witches and wizards so it can be easier to drain their magic with the draining spell and that Jack Horner and Blot were in on this.

Cricket tells Lydia that he was in contact with Sid and learned that she is receiving her own group of help from an empire. Lincoln and Lydia put it together that Slade's Empire and Bender must be helping her and Marcy, while saying they don't get as cheesy as Larke and Troy when they get older.

Lydia then asks Lincoln about his freeze up in regards to Rowena's death and Lincoln states he felt numb to it and is afraid he will feel this way in regards to his family when they die. Lydia informs him that has he told anyone else?, Lincoln shakes his head as this is something he didn't know how to describe despite being more open with the others. Lincoln asks if the fact is gets easier to deal with stuff like that makes him come off uncaring, or easier to compromise his morals upon seeing horrible things. Lydia calms him and informs him that like she said before back in Loch Loud and at the Cabin, that dealing with situations like that does get easier with time, though referring to the latter conversation, she states while it can always be stressful, its about keeping a firm sense of humanity and not losing one self to the darkness through Rapid Habituation

Prologue

Lydia goes to Mr.Candle for her therapy session she booked, and Candle tries to suggest group therapy. But Lydia declines due to her liking the seclusion of it.. Lydia tells him about her bullying situation she is under by other girls. She was mocked for her intellgence as she keeps scoring high grades in glass and maturity being way too promient in a girl her age which teachers having taken notice to as well as Johanna who shows concern for this as well, though Frida did encourage this to an extent as they studied witchcraft for the latter. Lydia also mentions other reasons are her tomboy tendencies and how she is perceived as weird for not being into girl stuff, having such a strong averison to romance openly and finding more comfort in guy stuff. She also admits that it may have to do with having a best friend who is really popular with her gender and being the very girl who's dating him may have a hand. She also states for as much grief Hilda gave her over Lincoln, Hilda admired her willingness to be her own person and be open about it. She was given grief for not asking anyone to Sadie Hawkins by others and Frida bagered her about it and asking Lincoln due to her asking Clyde.

When asked on this, Lydia tells Mr.Candle about the Linka Situation, the reason she got therapy with him. Lydia helped Clyde get Lincoln back on his feet regarding Chandler and even smacked a locker on Chandler for this and eventually smacked his nose with a roller skate over this. Upon hearing Lincoln being in the hopsital she and Clyde joined Ford and Team Free WIll to check up on him. When she heard the word "luck" come out of his parents, Lydia pulled them outside and called them out on The NSL Incident pointing how cowardly and pushover like they came off to their daughters. Lydia forces them to do something about before leaving, when she got home she talked to her parents who were conflicted on punishing her regarding what she did to Chandler. Her father explains to Lydia the situation of the NSL Incident and how cycles play off as well as children always feel that their parents know everything, but when they grow up they find out they were just as lost as they were and struggle just as much. When she was born was when he learned this and told her. Lydia also learned from her dad that both him and her mom don't take issue with her standing for people, and it's clear there is some shell shock. It's dealing with it violently that is the problem. That night, she got Bun Bun headed back to the hopsital and talked to Lincoln about the Linka Situation as well as the No Such Luck events. She suggested a quick way to get around it but doesn't tell him to it. WHen Lincoln gets his brain surgery about trauma, he basically charms her in a way he never did, and Lydia gets close to confessing her love for him as does Lincoln. She stops herself like he does and unlike the others catches on to some side affects of the surgery through her book which told a similar event. Lydia rallied Ford and the others to help and made a real promise to Lynn Jr who she suckered punched for The No Such Luck Events calling her a meat head obessed with super sitations and shaming her for potenitally geting her brother killed through this that she would give her a bad luck scenario she hates more than anything. Through Lynn Jr like Leni suspected Lydia liked her little brother. Which the latter suspected due to her being there for him all the times. They save him and Lydia calmly tells Lincoln that she knew what she was getting with him, but that doesn't matter, being there for Lincoln matters to her. Lydia also told advised Lincoln to go to Trolberg to see Hilda to help him with his. As she was so unsure about purusing him at first due to his trauma and didn't want to hurt him further. The time she spent away from him gave her persepective that she was really in love with him and learned about her demisexualness when she went to a doctor.

When Candle asks about her parents, Lydia admits they were great and wise parents. They never looked down on her for her interests and often encouraged them, raised her right and were reasonable. This made them going cataontic more tragic for her, she loves Mulder and Scully like her own parents, but does wish they could have more time for her as they are workalocholics which was why she tries to be mature and responsible. Lydia even came to a revelation that mutliverse saving and heroics isn't something to devote one's life to and that she feels like the only one who knows this. She likes doing it ,just not obessivingly and admits she likes to make new friends through this. One time she recalled was with Angus, Pippy, Ruby and Lincoln, where they traveled to P.E.I for a family project and went to Avolea. It was a familt tree and she wanted to learn more about her grand parents, but was advised by her aunt Dr.Lopez and her mother through bell tings not to do. Angus agreed due to him wanting to help her with it and they found some truths about her grandparents which upset her over finding out and Lincoln carrys her the way she carried him. Candle agrees with the assessments, and that Lydia should talk about her parental stuff to Mulder and Scully in that they have their own struggles. He agrees that Lydia should just let the girls's comment go off on her shoulder. When asked of her vacation plans, Lydia tells him she is going to Cocoa Beach and Orlando for the long week and Lincoln's joining her.

Lincoln and Lydia acknowledge the deja vu they're dealing with it since they had to something similar with the Lake Trio last time but didn't have Dawn with them. Blinky is aware of the Lake Trio's importance and mentions the two must have had some connection to them. Lincoln validates it by saying Uxie chose him and Azelf chose Lydia, Mespriit chose Dawn but they have no idea where she is. Lydia tells Blinky, Cuphead and the others that Dawn was from Sinnoh and got them into Pokemon, she and May held the other starter of the region while they took two. Their thought pattern was that someone else should have the other starter and since Nate was here, they decided he gets the 3rd one here.

With Lincoln, Lydia and the others they head to Lake Valor, and Lydia with Eleven takes charge hoping they are going to see Azelf yet again. However all they see is a Overqwil who Lydia decides to take on with intent to capture it with Eleven providing the pokeballs for her to use with Mike and the others.

They decide to not screw around and capture it with a Master Ball. Cuphead reports this to Lincoln, Lydia, Blinky, Eleven, Wednesday and Peacemaker and acquire the Dread Plate.

When everyone gets back together, this is when Volo ambushes the heroes and steals the plates with The Spot in tangent where the anti matter riff is once again there and Hissuan Region begins to collapse by using Giratina.

As the heroes all rest up, Lincoln and Lydia discuss their own situation respectfully and how it all felt. The two consider taking a slight detour to Galar so they can capture some more legendaries for themsmelves. Blinky and Will decide to help out with this if needed

Chapter 2

Lydia finishes her pack up of her own Galar pokemon and keeps one in the Pc Box. In part to Blinky's readings on the Split Decisions Ruins. Having listened to Lincoln on hearing the others found Regigigas without the other 3 Regis which Lydia and Lincoln did have to in Sinnoh. Where as Lincoln takes Regirock, Lydia decides on Registeel to be her Regi due to Blinky advising this for their trip. Lydia uses the space stone to send them to the Ruins

With the eye pattern in the ground, Will notes it and tells the two that in order to find the Regi they want. They must follow the eye patterns and only one can be found. Lydia clarifies that they have the Time Stone, which means they have a loop hole in getting both. After Lincoln makes the pattern and captures Regidrago, Lydia rewinds time and makes the pattern for Regieleki. She takes her lead on and uses Registeel to capture Regieleki before returning.

Lydia returns with Lincoln, Will and Blinky and this is when she sees Luna and Hobie. Who were waiting for them. Lydia asks how Luna found them and learns Hobie was with her as his drummer or whatever. She also learns Hilda and her friends are also trying to find them and that Mulder and Scully are getting back early to help them get her and Lincoln back. Lydia explains that she is working with the Streaming Resistance alongside Lincoln to deal with Spot and try to find a  way back to the others. She and Lincoln are introduced to Hobie, though Hobie alreadys knows them which she just rolls with. As Eleven and Will tell Lincoln about the Spider Frog and it's connection to the Upside Down, Mike, Lucas and Dustin do like wise for her.

Wednesday brings Lydia and the others up to Speed on Nevermore and what is going on there as well as her history. Wednesday explains how she had notes brought to her friend Enid who she fears is in trouble with Marlyin and Tyler. Lydia and Lincoln both listen but also are in deep thought which concerns Blinky

Lydia during the events building up to Lincoln's visit to Trolberg and his near death, Lydia helped Lincoln deal with. She explained to him that Lincoln has all rights to be mad with his family after all the stuff they did to him in the past, she stresses to Lincoln, that it's not his job to forgive him and that the big man upstairs is the one with the job. When Lincoln questions, Lydia explains that The Loud Family likely had siblings or even parents in their life who caused suffering to each other and despite that it doesn't make what they do right, and that trauma has the ability to distort what is considered right and wrong, people who suffer try to be like the ones who caused them harm, but they end up similar to them and what they do to harm others people and it goes on and on. Lydia though also praises Lincoln for being tougher and better than he thinks it as for all the trauma and tendecy to be bullied at times, Lincoln hasn't or at the very least done very much to harm his younger his sisters. That makes him better in her eyes and he's a better person despite what he goes through.

Blinky asks about Lydia's own situation, about her high amount of maturity and reponsibility, which has lead to some problems of her own due to Mulder and Scully's busy jobs, Her parents being in assisted living and she thought of a time she has hung out with Lincoln, Hilda, Jaune and Johanna for a night. The next day, Lydia talked to Johanna about what she told Lincoln about the constant tragedy in her family's life feeling how her family is cursed. She explains with one of her grandparents losing his entire family as a teen over time, his wife having lost her own parents when she was only 3 months old to Typhoid fever, and that she saw the worst parts of the world for 12 straight years. Lydia states that Angus helped her with that family tree project and how it was on her mom's side who didn't tell her. Lydia freaks out that it will run in the family and she'll die of it and is upset her mother didn't tell her. Johanna asks about her dad and Lydia gave him a pass due to him not knowing, Her aunt and Uncle did and her Aunt didn't take her in when she needed it and her Uncle doesn't look highly on Team Free Will for constantly risking being crippled, dying and or being traumaized. She feels other than her own father  she has lost faith in her own family and no longer believes that she can look up to her folks. Johanna is concern for her trying to be too mature and Lydia cites that as why. Johanna shows concern when Lydia points out it's no one's fault and that she felt since she lost her folks to what Vecna did, she feels like she is outgrowing her childhood.

Johanna notes that no one is to blame ever and that Lydia shouldn't be in such a hurry to grow up, in that it really isn't worth it.

She feels uncomfortable with this due to her own desires admittingly. It turns that Lydia's happiness about respect is due to Frida's parents racism towards her as Lydia and Lincoln told Frida about the scarlet fever that she talked to Johanna about and trying to get her advice on all this. Lincoln confesses to her that he believed in her like she did in him.

Lydia clarifes to a curious Will and Wednesday that Lincoln is feeling the potential aftermath of multiversal adventuring constantly. Lydia identifies with this as that is the reason her uncle and aunt didn't take her in when she lost her parents. She is a bit bitter about the abdadonment Lydia felt though admits her uncle wasn't entirely wrong about her association with Team Free Will, though she tells the two that her uncle doesn't see Team Free Will as bad people and thinks they really are heroes, he just doesn't wan his niece hanging with them and it was either she lives with her uncle and niece and quits the team, which she didn't do consider she meet so many people she cared about and Mulder and Scully encouraged her to be herself and not supress who she. Lydia admits the fact that she is looking for the middle ground between this

When asked on what she thought of Lincoln's idea to empaniaate himself. Lydia and Lincoln were at school holding hands respectfully where he tells her his idea and how they could do this and using  Selina Kyle and Bruce as an example of it working. This is where she rightfully admits that it was a different case for them, Though Lydia does admit if her own situation with her own family doesn't improve, to put her down for half. After hearing his situation, Lincoln asks Lydia about her own situation respectfully and Lydia is taking what she heard from Frida and Johanna respectively being inspired by them. Lydia accepts Lincoln's support and then they hide their hands as other girls show up and Lydia learns after being shoved by them that Lincoln was nomiated as the number 1 bachleor by the school for the upcoming dance and begins asking him out.

Wednesday tells Her and Lincoln about what she foreaw to them and mentions who she saw, this gets the two to start thinking and realize this is what Brenner was telling them a long time ago. After hearing more from Peacemaker and Will respectively about what they saw, Lydia is having a gut feeling the same person who killed Dr.Brenner is the person who killed Will and Penny's family. Lydia then hangs out with Penny on their common interests as well as the latter's own investigations in regards to the Upside Down and the creatures associated. She and Lincoln discuss with Eleven their own history with Dr.Brenner who had a dark past with him and experimented on her and other kids. She has some awareness of who Brenner is

After escaping, they lay low in the abadoned school and set a Snow Ball up where Mike and Eleven, as well as Lucas and Max dance. Max eggs Lydia on to dance with Lincoln as she can't be afraid of a school dance and that isn't why she isn't going to Sadie Hawkins. Lydia swallows her uncertainly and asks Lincoln. The two admit how awkard this is, but it does feel right between them as they continue to and look into each other's eyes pointing out that it's not that awkard when not in public.

Lydia hears from Wednesday what happened and she realizes The Smoking Man was part of this and she has Lincoln explain the situation they have as she overlooks Will Byer's condition and is worried about this and what she knows about Trolberg Lincoln and her decide that they have to do something about Trolberg and go to Professor Membrane on this.

The 5 then arrive to go after Spot and work to stop him with his plans. She works with Lincoln and Peacemaker to fight Spot using the stones against him. Spot manages to keep pace with them even as them and Will and Eleven try to help respectully. Due to Peacemaker's deductions she is able to do some harm to Spot

Will causes some spark in the detonator as he tries to fix it, and this ends up affecting Lydia as well as  Lincoln who both end up sharing a vision with The Spot as Trolberg is shown to be destroyed, then a room full of corpses, the multiverses being in danger of destruction and then seeing one of her best friends dying. Lydia learns from The Spot afterwards, that was the future but not something he will do, Spot mentions that someone will take everything from Lydia specially,

Peacemaker has to snap her out of this like Lincoln, where the crew all get holed out by The Spot and they end up having to watch Spot dentoante Trolberg and destory it.Lydia uses the time stone to keep themselves able to function and move as they all run to get away from Trolberg into the forest eventually running into the cabin's remains. Where she and Lincoln hand Will the PATSY 2000 to use as he rebuilds the cabin

They enter and Lydia is trying to figure what to do in regards to the vision as Peacemaker talks to The Chief.

Lydia changes into her PJs with Lincoln and lay on their bed. Trying to ponder what the hell is going on with those visions and they're things to happen. Lydia thinks out how they are going to stop Spot and prevent more harm from happening as Lincoln and her are going at this not sure what to do and Team Free Will isn't around to help with this black hole situation with quarantine, fall out and radiation poisoning.

Lincoln asks her about the deja vu regarding Flying Rhino, Lydia says it is but this is part to due to a denator that stopped time not due to a machine that can alter reality. She admits that she got through a quarantine before while also mentioning The Mani being cloned. Lydia called Lincoln during his time in Trolberg where he was went out with Hilda and how she toured Clone High respectfully and learned about cloning material

The two awkwardly discuss what they did in Hawkins, with Lydia explaining why she did so to Lincoln. He gets it thankfully and Lydia appreciates that. She notes how Lincoln seems different this time noting his increased confidence, resilient and capability.

When he gets out, he asks if she was watching him, she admits she was reading and eating but was suprised he likes a sport much like her liking Pogo stick hopping and base ball. Lincoln is more curious about the Burger and runs to lean on Lydia as she tells him what she is reading Where the Wind Blows as they discuss what they saw and the effects of nuclear war as Ribs, Corn Bread and Baked Beans is what is on the menu as well.

When Lincoln comes back from his investgation, he tells Lydia of the horrors he saw at Hilda's house and what happened to Twig. Both of them are thinking on how to tell Hilda about this, and think if this is what happened to Hilda's house. What about Frida and David's and Lydia asks Lincoln if he wants to check tonight. That night, Lydia uses her hair bands to fly with Lincoln and they check out both houses. Lydia and Lincoln check both houses. Frida's is first and they find it destroyed but Frida's family is fine due to the bomb shelter. David's House is checked next and his parents are in bed due to symptnoms of the poisoning.

Sitting on The Raven God Statue, Lincoln puts his head on Lydia's Shoulder as she puts her arm around him and think about their predicament here. He want some quiet time to think and he's glad that he and her have have it. Lincoln admits that with all of the stuff that's happened since Toffee and Bill's return that he has overtime lost the ability to connect with his family which Lydia already figured out about him and that he is over time discovering it again through this.

On Day 6, Lydia and Will both decide to go looking through Gorill Gardens bell tower where the main trigger was. The two find more mutated wolfs like Blinky and Eleven, but avoid them and Lydia notes just how much damage was done to this town with one device. She tells Will she considered going here when 2 days ago, she and Lincoln were on the Raven Statue and had a quiet moment and she saw it. Will calls Lydia to see something and they see A Robot, and Will knows it's The Robot that he and Penny know and they decide to bring it back.

Lydia made her way to the living home with Lincoln in tow, and she calls her mother for not telling her about her side of her family and intentionally hiding from her. Lydia asks about her being trusted as a Lopez and how her own uncle and aunt didn't want her. Lydia hears about it through their bell communcation that what did happen to her grandmother on her mom's side and how she was orphaned shortly after birth, put into foster care and subjected to horrific abuse by both foster parents and foster siblings. The violent abuse unjustly inflicted on her utterly traumatized her and how she was ultimately almost taken back as her eventual parents wanted a girl as well as  witnessed marital rape and Her knowledge of adult subjects is disturbing, They saw that emerging in Lydia and didn't want her to turn like her in her teens and young adult years as she wouldn't be able to handle such things at a young age. Not that her grandfather had it any easier with waning family and not knowing what to do with life

While shocked and down on this, she does have some satisfcation from learning how Anne Shirley was like her a lot as she talks to Lincoln upon deciding to speak up. Lydia decides that she can live with this and just needs to sort out her desires for Mulder and Scully to be there as well and must take one step at a time. Lincoln seems like Lydia has found some peace and is saddened she won't go half in on him. Lydia reassures him she will still, and that the meaning of it that she goes 50/50 with him on any potential matter with him understanding his space needed.

Hilda will need some infusions to keep going as Will notes and she decides to forgo this to find the fairy mound and Lydia decides to help like Lincoln and Will Robinson to get Hilda there. She pulls HIlda aside and decides to question if Hilda really truly desires the life of an adventurer. Lydia addresses that for all of her liking for being with the team, She did feel her uncle and aunt did make a good point about the risks and how the life of an adventurer has rosed tinted glasses and that if left unbalanced, death, crippling and mental trauma will happen at some point. Lydia also points out that it can leave Hilda without an ability to connect to others and lead her estranged, thus the reason she dislikes Anders comes down to it and uses him as a cautionary tale for this life style

Heading to Toftuken, Lydia, Will and Lincoln decide to let the others know about them helping Hilda. They get Wednedsay and inform her of what's they're doing respectfully and are taking the precautions.

The Time Agents brief Lydia that the boss wants to see him and Lydia as well as others so He and some of the group go to join Grace to see her boss.

Chapter 5

Lydia gets to the Time Bureau with the others and end meeting the Time Bureau's allies and it's leader Loki who Lydia doesn't trust as she knows from when she first met up with The B Team and Slade's Ensemble respectfully. She told Lincoln about this as she states and has to get The Robot to confirm that Loki is reformed despite his assoication with The CSM and Wesker. Lydia also comes cross Flashpoint Thawne who she is hesistant to trust as well

She also finds Doc Brown's kids here too and this suprises her but she nods that they seem downtrodden. Lydia is told about Kang by Hobie who he went up against and how the Time Bureau was broken apart after those events. Lydia is told about the timeline is maintained respectfully and good and bad events have to happen to balance out the timeline. This is a job that has been hard to maintain, they tried to contain the situation after the Spear of Destiny incident with Eobard Thawne but not the one they have working for them the other one. She admits she had a hand in this with Bender and Deathstroke. Unlike them she gets a pass for not knowing what went on as that's why HIlda was kept alive after Lincoln and Lydia stopped what was supposed to be her death and they were ready to rein hell down on Bender as well as Anti Cosmo for breaching multiverses to find their friend.

Lydia also learns that Erica was connected to her and Lincoln  for 14 years and counting as her friend and also being a senator friend who helped the two find their normal life respectfully. Something Lydia has been seeking. The reason that Loki and the others brought her is in account to the fact that what happened and it turns out it was a massacre of her old team mates and the bodies being delivered to them. She is shaken hard by this and it takes Lincoln, Will, Penny and Hobie to set her straight about what she just had to see.

Things go from bad to worse when The Robot soliders/agents attack under The Robotoid and Melvin Borg attack the Bureau. The Robotoid does have some answers and Lydia decides she needs answers, and decides to pursue this, Lincoln knows this and decides to help taking her hand despite how crazy it is the action they're taking. Will Robinson and Erica Wang both encourage this as well as they are finding their own answers.

Lydia is shown Vanzilla in it's time machine like status as differnet versions of Vanzilla was copied and they get in Vanzilla. Lydia hotwires the vechile and drives it after The Robotoid who was creating a rift for the chase. She talks to Lincoln about Visions repsectfully yet again and how this fell into place like what happened to Spot in Trolberg. The two feel that this is exactly what is happening according to what was seen.

Lydia drives Vanzilla with Lincoln in the passenger seat. she uses the infinty stones and pym particles to bring the Land Behemoth here to use for her own chidlish ends which Lincoln is happy to see her act like. She chases the Robotoid with Lincoln in tow through multiple Loud House universes including the rabbit one, the live action one, a super hero one where they meet their alternate selves, an agent one while also fighting off the mirror agents

Another one Lincoln and Lydia go into is the past where they find out Johanna's backstory, Both Lydia and Lincoln see that Johanna was suffering fairy sickness not long after being born and would die without a doctor who could help until Mulder and Scully took action. Lydia learns with Lincoln of the deal Johanna's parents made with the Fairy Entity for a cure in exchange for her after a decade. she knows this will backfire in some way on them. She is proven right after seeing a decade of Phinium, Lydia (Hilda), and Johanna and the former two gave themselves to said Entity and left the human world. Lincoln and herself even notice how Astrid took away a majority of Johanna's memories as a kid to ease the feel of being abadoned. Lydia like Lincoln has a revealtion that is why Johanna was so protective of Lydia and encouraging herself to be a kid as well as Hilda and Lincoln, that like Lydia, Johanna has abadonment issues.

She and Lincoln manage to defeat the Robotoid but ultimately end up in another universe where LIncoln notes how gloomy his family is as does Lydia, and the two go trying to investigate what is going on. Lydia learns from eavesdropping in the Mcbridge Family that Clyde of that universe has gone when he has gone every month, Royal Woods Cemetery. She sees Lincoln as found out the truth, that he died in part to all of the trauma and heck he endured at Royal Woods with some of the worst events being the trigger and Lydia tells Lincoln it was really true. She oveheard. Lincoln can't comprhend what happened and Lydia is also stuck in a shock due to how bad the Team Free Will massacre effected her

Lincoln can only feel that it was because this Lincoln was alone and had no one to talk to, lean on or confide and then he realizes for all the trouble that occured to him he has someone who was always with him since they met. Lydia notices Lincoln is starting to cry and begins to do as well, noting as much as Lincoln feels he needs her, She needs him as well after the horrors witnessed by the two regarding Team Free Will. They eventually meet back up with Hobie and LL007 who pep talk them and help the two deal with their situation and help them get back. Now that they know SPot has a benefactor due to The Robotoid leaking it.

Upon getting back to Flying Rhino, Lydia is suprised to see how it's all well build it is again as she joins Lincoln and Hobie in helping take back the boiler room and find the others in tow. With The Spot in tow, Lydia decides to take him on with The Streaming Resisitance and Lincoln. The Former brings in Hilda to assist, Lydia does this with the intent to get her answers from Spot. She uses her infinity stones to use against Spot  and helps her friends seal off the holes and uses the stones to keep Spot down. Lydia like her friends hear Spot out about what he has said and realizes he is telling the truth which occurs when a False Groudon begins to emerge to the horror of the heroes and even The Spot who shows real fear.

Chapter 6

Lincoln, Lydia, The Robinsons and The Robot manage to get The Spot to join Mulder and Scully in the car as they make their way to escape The False Groudon. Lincoln and Lydia both are bit hesistant to reveal what they saw in their own travels about Team Free Will slaughtering, Lincoln's own what could have been and what they saw with Hilda's mom. Mulder notices this but doesn't push it as Lydia is particually disturbed by all this

Lydia learns from Spot what had gone down from Spot's ally. She decides to assist him with reverseing the polarity against the monster. Lincoln and Will Robinson are also on board with this as well. Once the group all arrives and Jake and Amy decide to take the lead here. Lydia is a bit unsure of the cops doing so but they tell her that they can do this. All of them can,  Lydia is joined by Hilda, Wednesday, Peacemaker, Eleven and Hobie to deal with the monster

Once they all arrive into the lab, Lydia works with Lincoln, Will and The Spot while the rest of the crew distract the monster, as the 4 get the tecnhology respectfully to work. However N.Tropy activates his contigency plan to trap and drain Spot. Spot uses the last of his powers to help the trio escape and finish N.Tropy's abomination. The trio manage to do just that, Lydia notices Spot has been killed and mourns him with the two since he was a target of the benefactor like they were.  As the lab falls apart, Hobie and Hilda both make sure to insure the trio is safe.

As the others make due and when Frida's mentor arrive with an solution for beginning to heal Trolberg. Frida gloats to her about how she knew they could work like that way. Lydia decides with Lincoln to agree right away wanting to help Johanna and Jaune as Lydia owns it to the former for keeping her grounded having seeing her past. The two manage to also get Hilda's aunt, grandparents and Hobie help. Lincoln suprises her by telling her, she can ask him to the dance. Lydia desiring something more normal even if it's a dance accepts. As Jaune and Johanna leave with the agents, The Robot and Enid to remind them of the date to save. The Two also decide they at least Dawn needs to be aware of what went on.

Pop Pop and Myrtle decide to take Lincoln, Lydia, Clyde and Frida home and he also joins Dustin and Steve to drop the former off in Salt Lake City to see his girlfriend. Lincoln and Lydia go back to a flashback after their trip to P.E.I where they went on a date to Gorrill Gardens with the P.E.I food they found and bought. The two were joined by Hilda with her siblings so they can discuss what they have been up to

Lydia is happy with the moment, she is here and contend.

Epilogue

Lydia goes with Lincoln, Dawn, Jules and Verne to pay their respects to their fallen allies at N.Tropy's hands. She is left in a question about why this has all happened still much like Lincoln and Dawn.. She isn't comfortable or sure how to tell Ford about any of this, which she feels is kind of upsetting as for how much she goes off on her own with Lincoln and others. This is a matter where she has no idea how to explain this to them unlike previous times

Jules and Verne will be fine as it goes as she learns, though she is suprised to see that Dawn is staying for the time being. She and Lincoln observe all the tombstones and like Dawn feel that Team Free Will may be on the twilight of it's existence and if the reason both her and Lincoln being alive is because they know not to constantly puruse adventures. Lincoln isn't sure but he'll get back to her.

Lydia decided to have Lincoln stay with her at her house when it came to this right next door to The Louds.  One morining, Lincoln and her both wake up and notice that Lincoln has gotten a lower albeit still high voice and has become more atheltically build. She gazes at this for a second, but stops herself to help him due to his embrassment. She mentions that told him before it's virtue that allowed this to happen and he has shown progress to being who she has always seen in him. She helps him hide this, and then they see Scully, Dustin, Nate and Erica who are waiting for them and have a surpise for Lincoln that Scully is taking him to see. Lydia finds out the surpise is an apartment complex for Lincoln from his family in part to help with what he has been going through in his times of need. Which Lydia checks out with the others to see it

Unlike the others, Lydia is told to stay by Lincoln as Lydia knows Lincoln has some thoughts about it and tells him it's a comfortabe environment to say it. Lincoln confides to her he has what he wanted but now is having 2nd thoughts. In part to seeing what happened to him in an alternate timeline and the grass is greener is mindset. Lydia does tell him to consider the upsides which he does and to appreciate The Louds. But Lydia understands Lincoln's persepctive and that explains change is really the only thing they know like Bender and AC said. She identifies when it came to her indepence and being overly mature which Johanna helped her. She notices the others are listening and tells them to stop peeking as this is private.

She and Lincoln both consider not putting it to waste and decide to see if The Robinsons or Wednesday will have a use for this or not.

Chelesa the night of the dance decides to get Lydia ready for the dance and for her date Lincoln. When she is done, Lydia comes out and stuns Lincoln with how beautiful she is, Her hair is huge and much longer, she is wearing a yellow and brownish micro dress and is wearing boots. As she and Lincoln wait, Lydia is a bit uncomfortable with how nice Chelsi made her, she doesn't want to look like some attractive girl she wants to be herself and the hair is the main reason due to the mermaid making it longer and fuller, and that she feels it in her eyes. Lincoln assures Lydia, that she is still herself just having to look more conventional for once and that he gives her something to  keep her hair out of the eyes she has which Lydia does smile at for having a best friend and boyfriend that understands her. Lydia does admit that the dress she does like and the boots which Lincoln agrees to. He compliments her that she looks just that young woman agent who helped them who was beautiful herself. Lydia thinks for a second and like Lincoln realizes that she is LL007 and her future self was helping them and likely Lincoln's was too.

They are picked up by Mulder with the others, and she surprises Clyde and Frida with how she looks as they meet up with the rest. Lydia decides to go in first herself, she does get some heckling from her female peers, though also respect from others for going supposingly stag. When Lincoln does show up, The girls all try to get Lincoln and learn who he is with. Lydia slowly walks up to them and Lincoln reveals Lydia is his date and also his girlfriend admitting he was only going to go if Lydia asked him. Lydia just watches the other girls who seethe Lydia got Lincoln, but some of them show happiness to that Lydia came and managed to win over the biggest bachelor of the school

The two hang out with Dustin and Suzie, before they dance themselves feeling how right this and as the two embrace in each other's arms. She admits Jaune and Johanna had something of a hand in this decision as long as desiring normalness. Lydia does have fun with the secretness she and Lincoln have in regards to their true relationship which he agrees, though they both decide to take some steps to allowing themselves to be a bit more open about their realtionship while having some more of this kind of fun. They have their own big damn moment as well

Afterwards, the two went home and went to bed together. That next day, Pippi is there and she tries to help Lydia with Lincoln to getting her hair back to normal. The two don't succeed since Lydia's red hair is too full of volume though manage to get her hair back in pigtails. Though they will be larger for the time being. Lincoln gets a giggle out of her when he explains this will improve those hair bands being able to fly for her.

Mulder picks them and brings them to the wedding with Scully, as Erica and Nate are aware of they have done there as they arrive at the cabin. Hilda does give Lydia some grief for not dressing up like her, Lydia says Jaune and Johanna don't really care how she dresses as long as she dresses right and shows up. Lydia learns that Jaune's parents and family are here and joins him, Johanna and Lincoln to meet them with Astrid. She also checks out Will and Wednedsay and how they are handling their room. When the time comes, She and Lincoln walk down the aisle before hand with Mulder and Scully watching proud of her and him as they reach the Robot.

When Jaune and Johanna do arrive, when it comes to their vows, it takes a nod from Lydia for Jaune to give Johanna his vows. After Lincoln nods to Johanna's too, She notices Lincoln winking at her with his right eye, which she does back with her left eye as they listen.

Before sitting with Lincoln, HIlda, Jaune and Johanna she has to watch Jaune's mom hit Jaune with a frying pan to their shock as well as her own and Will Robinson's shock. Which takes Enid and The Robot to stop. Before they all enjoy their meal Pippi made for the wedding. When the time comes for the boquet toss, Lydia is with Hilda as is Lincoln. This confuses her why Jaune's sisters are excited for this which takes a explanation from Hilda why as Lydia thought Johanna ate something bad. When Hilda describes to her what it does as it predicts things and is  romantic, she and Lincoln both don't believe concretely with her stating it is superstition .

Though it is Frida who catches it , Jaune and Johanna feel Hilda may be wrong and that Lydia and Lincoln could be the next one in a few years or Mulder and Scully.

She hangs out with her friends as they enjoy their time at the wedding. Lydia learns her words did so to an extent get Hilda to think about the balance Lydia talked to her about and she discusses with Will and Lincoln what had really gone down and what to do as well as hanging with the Resistance.

Entropized

Lydia serves alongside Lincoln, Bender and Anti Cosmo as one of the 4 center characters to deal with the threat of N.Tropy and the state of what's transpiring that affects the cast throughout the storyline of Phase 4. To look into this, Lydia as well as Lincoln join The Streaming Resistance and receives further help from Bender of the B Team and Anti Cosmo from Slade's Empire. Her relationship with Ford reaches a tipping point in Book 1, when both Lydia and Lincoln's involvement with the Streaming Resistance comes to light and her celebrating her 12th birthday in Book 2: Interlude which turns to disaster.

Part 1

Lincoln, Lydia, Will, Penny and The Robot all come in to Wednesday and the Robinsons's apartment. Asking how home schooling when, Wendesday gives a snide comment about dealing with people beaten down by the system. The Robot explains it doesn't not compute.

Will sees that he has a invite to camp in the mail, Penny is a bit jealous about why Will got an invite but not her. Wednesday comments on camp is pointless and that it's just a painful bonding activity that doesn't last for companionship. Lincoln says he got one as did Lydia, As well as their friends Clyde and Truman. Lydia also asks about Enid, Wednesday admits Enid came around to her as did them, but they're the exceptions. As for her, she is doing find with Anders and that werewolf hunter guy who Lincoln tells her is Jaune Arc, Wednesday says he doesn't look who he was named after.

Will, Lydia and Lincoln all show some exictement to spent summer together again, The Latter two also seem eager that the last day is year book signing and they're off. Lydia doesn't really care, which Wednesday happiliy points out makes sense. Erica gets a call from Lydia and the two discuss Summer Camp, which they are glad to be going to the same one, Erica advises Lydia as well to check out as soon as she gets people signing her yearbook.

Lincoln, Lydia, Truman and Clyde are all recieving their yearbooks for the end of the school year. Lincoln and Lydia are both aware of their floating timeline situation. Lydia asks Lincoln is he doing anything after and Lincoln asks does she have an idea, Lydia says she does and she'll be in her backyard while he goes to get his year book signed. Truman and Lincoln both ask about her own, Lydia says she got all the ones she wanted  which was them and Lincoln's other friends before she heads off.

She gets home and gets a radio out and uses the stones to make a pool, a life persever and to get herself in proper atire to rest in the pool as she relaxes.

As Lydia lies back in her pool, Lincoln comes around with his year book and a cardboard cup holder of two drinks saying he's here. And Lydia takes her sunglassed off to see Lincoln and Lincoln is suprised Lydia made a swimming school, she offers him a chance in there when he wants. Lincoln takes her up on it and Lydia gets in her self back into a yellow tank top and brown shorts as she sits next to Lincoln on a lawn chair. Lincoln comments on how many clothes she has are yellow and Lydia lighty teases about his orange polo shirts.

As the two sit on their lawn chair, the two go through their year book and go through it, mentioning once more despite being end of the year, they don't age or go up grades unless it's relevant. After pointing out many things lncluding Lincoln's action news team and Lydia's own stuff. The two find out they were voted "cutest couple" by the year book comittee. Lydia is baffled and how it was so much for trying to be more public, only to now be immortalized in a year book. Lincoln does admit the yearbook commitee did put her in a favorable light, they described her as hidden gem acknowledging that she cleans up very nicely, go against the norm with yellow and brown in her dress and wearing boots, and still acts like a tomboyish dork who won over the number 1 bachelor for the Sadie Hawkins Dance. Lincoln tells her that at least the committee was on her side and even discussed how Lincoln made it clear he loved her considering it admirable. The thing that put them above the edge was their kiss which neither of them knew who started it.

Lincoln does admit something changed not just going public, but he feels like he's on the preciple of being  a teen like his sisters something Lydia agrees with. He even states he's not being harassed by other women, Lydia knows why and Lincoln asks why. Lydia then gives a grin and says how no one messes with her and noggies Lincoln which he apreciates Lydia's assertive way of affection and tricks her with uncle before spraying her with a water gun. Lydia gets a water balloon and chases him with it as they both laugh go through the sprinklers and Lincoln manages to get one and Lydia  tells him to throw when they say draw. Before one of them can throw both water baloons burst on thems and they fall on the grass chuckling with Lincoln hoping that they can do this even when they get older and have careers, Lydia reassures him that that will still be the case. She hears"The Entertainer" being played and she knows it's an ice cream truck and grabs Lincoln's hand and gets her bike, Lincoln hands her a helmet and they both chase the ice cream truck with Lydia biking and Lincoln giving her directions to try and get a short cut to the elusive truck.

Lydia then decides to kick the motorized bike into high gear and goes really fast off on a bump causing both her and Lincoln to go flying into a bush and manage to catch up to the ice cream truck. Lincoln recovers quickier and catches the ice cream truck and when he is asked what he would like, he has no idea first until he hears Lydia ask for 2 giant K2 Cones. Lincoln is shocked as the crash got her to go loose and thinks back to how she was at Sadie Hawkins, being the dork he is he tries to contain his attraction, but he fails though Lydia just smiles as she moves and hands Lincoln a Giant K2 Cone as they sit down enjoying their K2 Cones saying it was on her as Lincoln did pay for the drinks.

Lydia knows Lincoln want to discuss the obvious and comments that it's the andrealine that kicked in, that was one thing that changed that night. And like anything when it comes to her romantic side it's just with Lincoln she can be this way with. He says it's because she feeling like older, herself which she agrees. Lydia buries her head in ice cream and states for as much as she wants to balance adventure, she can't deny it changed for the better even if it bothers her what it came with. Also she really wanted to get big ice creams for summer as it was on her to do list. Lincoln just smiles as she is still the loveable tomboyish dork despite this and happily licks his big ice cream. They discuss their plans for camp with Truman and Clyde and they also were in contact with both Nate and Erica to join them here.

This was when a phone call is given and they ask who to answer. Lincoln decides whoever eats all the ice cream doesn't have to answer. She agrees and two go hard on the K2 Cone and Lincoln wins causing Lydia to answer the phone which she does and learns it's Ford who is on his way to Royal Woods and wants to meet them somewhere on something. She Tells Lincoln and the two decide to head off with Lincoln getting brain freeze due to it, Lydia places a heat blanket on his head to cool off as she get her bands on and uses them to helicopter to Ford's meeting area with Lincoln in tow.

At Clyde's House, everyone has arrived and Ford announces what happened with what Dawn told him. Lincoln and Lydia both look uneasy as they do know unlike them and are troubled by rememering the event.

Ford has decided on a trip to a fun location and Eclipisa tells them that it was a trip to Mexico for all of them to go on too. Due to Lydia and Lincoln still trying to ponder out things, Truman speaks up and explains that the 4 of them are going to a summer camp for the next month to start Summer and have already paid for it. Ford seems saddened by this as he wanted to have a great time with her

Luz and Anne approach them asking if they're okay and how it's nice to see them noticing they're taller than the last time they saw them. Lincoln answers Anne with it's fine as does Lydia with Luz. Luz asks if something is really up as they don't seem peturbed by the death of Team Free Will's associates and if they want to talk they're here. Lydia just thanks them for this as she is remembering the corpses she and Lincoln discovered of them.

Anne hands the two their phone in case to talk if needed.

As Lincoln and Lydia are in the latter's bedroom discussing what Ford found out. as they have gotten into contact with Will Robinson, Penny, The Robot and Wednesday on this who have given this over to Rave, Jake and Amy. Lincoln considers getting someone else in on this and investigate the Team Free WIll situation and there is only one person he can consider and Lydia agrees . Ford enters the room and asks if they can all chat. Lydia agrees and Ford sits on the bed with the two and Ford explains that he is aware that what the two dealing is hard and it won't be easy to deal with.

Ford agrees and says that they have to be a better place of mind before hand, Ford extends he's willing to talk if they need to and when they are ready. He is just concerned that the two may not have much need so much since Lydia was adopted by Mulder and Scully. Lydia tells Ford that they may be legal guardians, but he is her mentor, the man who got her into all this and taught her about the vast multiverse they live in and that can't be taken away from him, and that she will need him in some respect.

That night, Lincoln and Lydia both are getting ready for bed with them in their orange and yellow pjs respectfully. Lydia takes her hair bands off and tells Lincoln that it was thankful they were able to get the very person on this that they needed. Lincoln confidently tells her that they can pretty much relax more now, or at least until it comes back to them. Lydia jumps into her bed next to Lincoln and notices Lincoln rest his head on her and she places her arm around him as they get to sleep.

Lydia wakes up places her unkempt hair in her bands which Lincoln hands her saying that it's almost time. Mulder arrives to tell Lydia and Lincoln that they are just about to be packed and that they'll need to have a quick breakfast before picking up Truman and Clyde. Also Lydia uses Anne's phone to text Anne to tell Ford that she appreciates Ford reaching out to her on this whole ordeal.

Lydia and Lincoln discussed the events of the massacre and Lydia and Lincoln decided to text Bender about this and to ask if he wanted a job. Lydia says Bender got the text and that this is a safe place. Bender asks what the kids need, Lincoln tells him that he has a job for him as he and Lydia want answers in regards to an event. The two tell him about the Team Free Will Massacre and what happened explaining who was killed and where they found the bodies. Bender asks if anyone else knows, Lydia says he's the 1st person outside of some Team Free Will teammates who knows, Even Ford doesn't know they know the fullest details. Lincoln adds that some new friends he and Lydia made also are looking into this too.  Bender checks the files and decides to help and he tells Lydia and Lincoln he'll charge them $300 for it, the payment plan is up to them, and this is low due to them being friends and him knowing the team. He  even shows the two Rick's portal gun that he had gotten back from Bill Cipher and Toffee's lair which Lincoln asks about what he'll do with that, Bender says he'll give it to his guy for it. Lydia says she and Linc would look more into it, but they want to be kids and are going to camp. Bender points despite that 1st part, they're dating and the relationship is serious and says that he doesn't hold it on them, they need to keep that sense as he knows both of them are getting closer to the end of childhood in both senses. He advises them as the three are set to leave, that whoever is doing this has some grudge on them and likely some crazy one if this person would go so far to something like they told him. Lydia keeps that in mind. Lincoln shakes his hand and thanks him for taking it despite his workload.

Vigilante then inquries what John is doing and he saying he's calling some old friends in for help. The two manage to get a ring and on the other line is Lincoln and Lydia, both of them being in the car of Mulder and Scully while the others are taking bathroom breaks. Lincoln asks the Streaming Reisistance what's up, Viiglante informs Lincoln that they may have a problem and that they need both him and his girlfriend to help. Lydia tells Vigilante that she and Lincoln are taking the summer off, they even said so to Blinky prior and he can confirm this. Economos explains that they are in a sticky situation and they can really use their help with this. Lydia thinks on this and decides to meet the two halfway. If they still have this problem afterwards their vacation, then she and Lincoln will help out. Vigilante still wants them to help, but John understands and tells the two to have a nice trip then, he asks where they are going. Lincoln just answers camping and tells them that keep a good bit of attention on the events in the event, he and her have to be called in.

As Mulder and Scully arrive at the Camp they drop off Lincoln, Lydia, Truman and Clyde telling them that the long trip was worth it to see their similing ward and tells Lydia don't have too much fun while away. Lydia promises not to as she has a hand crossed which Mulder can tell and shakes it off, The two tell Lincoln and Truman to keep their eye on her and don't do anything crazy. Clyde thought takes it completely seriously.

Mulder and Scully drive off and Mulder is aware that Lydia will do something like this and that Truman and Lincoln will join her as those 3 are the great musketeers and that while he promised this to them, he does want them to be kids

To The suprise of Lincoln, Lydia, Truman and Clyde they run into David and ask what he's doing here. David explains that he overheard about this camp and wanted to go for the summer month, Clyde asks about Frida and Hilda and learns they didn't go as it's just him. David has some eagerness to spend time with his pals on his own for once.

If that wasn't suprising enough they also see Will Robinson, The Robot, Rave, Dustin, Erica and Nate as well. Lincoln and Lydia are overjoyed to see Nate and Erica but are suprised to see Will, The Robot, Rave and Dustin here too regarding their circusmtances.

Truman who is a bit locked out of the loop asks about these guys and Erica. Lydia tells Truman that these are their friends that they met a bit ago and worked with as well being part of a team they worked with a while ago. Truman feeling a little decieved asks when were they going to tell him this, She also meets Nate's friend Dee Dee arrives as well which quesitons all of them, Nate talked to his own friends about his came and Dee Dee decided to come along due to her dramatic personaltiy. Lincoln snarks to Lydia it'll be liking dealing with Lola and Luan in one body, Lydia adds it'll depend on which one they see more of

Truman just demands Lincoln, Lydia and Clyde to bring up to speed as he's lost. Before that point Larke and Troy arrive too and are consuleors for the camp which suprises Them and David,  When David asks abotu them, Larke explains she and Troy went looking for summer jobs and decided to apply at this place to work with kids, Larke never really thought she would see her own friends at the camp and notice the connections being made. This is when Victoria Neuman arrives and informs them all that she is the offical head of this camp and that it's on a road camp for them all as they all have something very special about them hence why she accepted all of their requests to do so. Lydia and Lincoln both stop Victoria and ask if they are going to Mexico, Victoria confirms this to them and that if they want they can decide on where.

So the entire party consisting of Lydia, Lincoln, Truman, Clyde, David, Will Robinson, Erica, Nate, The Robot, Dustin, Rave and Dee Dee all end setting their tents as Larke and Troy accompany Victoria back to her cabin.

Part 2

It is set in stone that the first of the major camping destinations that the group will take is at Bizarroville. Rave is suprised as that's where he lives. Lincoln, Lydia, Truman, Clyde and the others don't seem to say much about this as this a first location. When asked on this Neuman explains that while it may seem not like a camping spot, is it a destination that is a place to have some fun at. She informs them to basically set a camp spot for the night with a pal or two

Lincoln and Lydia obviously set theirs together as they decide to warm up to the idea of going there. This is when Victoria's daughter enters asking if they have any room for one more, The two agree noding as Lincoln intends to share his sleeping bag with Lydia. Lydia asks about her relation to Victoria and is told that Neuman is her mother, the two ponder why a woman like her would run a camp that travels for the summer. Lincoln sees her as a family woman who wants best for her daughter and she is a single mom, similar to how HIlda was which Lydia points out is alike. Vic's daughter asks if they want to play some games she brought and they agree.

Larke and Troy start a fire and get the others respectfully as Neuman also brought Lincoln's grandparents too to help out. Pop Pop and Myrtle see Lincoln and are happy to see their grandson and his girlfriend are here too. Lincoln and Lydia run to hug them glad to see them, Pop Pop and Myrtle are suprised Lydia is too hugghng them, Larke asks to talk to the two of them and takes both of them aside as she has Troy with them, she had somehow got her hands on the year book and noticed their publc relationship upgrade and points out she is proud of them both and she is proud they are beginning to grow up which she is happy to see. Lydia is uncomfortable apart from the andrealine changing her, Lincoln admits it's true she's really is more hardcore and easy on the eyes. Lydia says pretty much around him alone, Larke says it's not be bad to be confident in your looks, Lydia points out she doesn't want people starring and doesn't care about it as she's not Larke. Larke tells Lydia to just do it on her own terms, she doesn't want to argue this month with her. Larke then catches up with Troy and discuss the others and Troy asks about the two. Larke shows him the photo at the yearbook and the two just watch as Lydia and Lincoln are still being young in love best friends that are starting to grow up together as they watch the moon and discuss the future together

That next morning all the others have began to snack and eat breakfast, while Neuman claims all their cell phones as she explains rationally that cell phones are not meant to be used for camping. Lincoln and Lydia both approach Amy and Rave, and Lincoln tells Amy that Lydia has an quesiton. Lydia asks Amy she has interest in being a special agent/detective and would like if Amy can train her in the role. Amy questions why Lydia wants to take such an approach. Lydia tells her she wants to be someone who can take heroics as a job as a good way to balance the life, and it is a goal she wants to work to.

Lincoln admits he and her had this chat and went future was discussed, she thought on this, he supports her choice to it and he has some of his own interest in this kind of thing. Rave has nothing wrong with this though Amy is a bit recultant to what a kid should do. Lincoln plays Amy and agree to take an apporach to Lydia to an extent Lincoln, teaching Lincoln about the smarts of it, and Lydia the fighting style but she will make sure it's not too dangerous as Mulder and Scully could be watching. Lincoln and Lydia still have Anne's phone and Will notices as does The Robot but Lincoln and Lydia tell them it's from Anne. Will decides to keep between them as does The Robot. Neumann shows up to Lydia and Lincoln and she tells them that she is appreciateive of their extentison . Lincoln and Lydia discuss this and Lydia is estatic she's going to get a jump on her future and hugs Lincoln tightfully for helping. Lincoln said he wants to help her with her future, as he is setting himself to be a reniassance boy, a super heroic detective who tests videogames, hunts ghosts and more. Lydia believes this, acknowleding he's smart, social and strategic like a detective, selfless, athethic and humble like a super hero and enough of a geek to get big into ghosts and video games. Lydia confidently expresses that he has graudally became the best verison of himself she has always seen in him.

The 6 of the group are bust playing their UNO, with Amy basically winning and she celebrates celebatroy style with the others watching. Lincoln can see why Lydia wants to emulate some of Amy's ideas and personality, Will curious asks about this, and Lydia explains to him that she wants to have a career like Amy. Amy, Lincoln, Will and Lydia then all notice themselves surrounded by mirror agents. Lincoln remembers them as they are the agents that tried to kill them ago. Will and Amy having both heard of these mirror agents are a bit baffled at this, Lydia knows they are made of mirror so hitting them won't work. Lincoln, Lydia, Will, Amy all proceed to manage to elude Mace through a maze through the back of a train when the 4 meet back up. Amy is aware Mace will find them, so she hands 3 pistols to Lincoln, Lydia and Will asking them to come her. She wouldn't have done this but this is serious.

Lydia and Lincoln both hold their pistols as they wait for something. This is When Mace makes his move and decides to draw out his sanders and has them in a corner, Lincoln calls up Will and Amy to tell them that they have been found. Lydia holds out Amy's hand gun and takes firing shots at Mace which do manage to hurt Mace, despite his coming at her and Lincoln, though she runs out of bullets and tosses the gun as Mace drives into the two ready to Sander them that he will see them in hell. While scared, Lincoln notices the narrowness of the sandering and tells Amy and Will to take the rest of it from here and both of them fire at Mace's sides which cause him to stumble, though he quickingly gets away. Amy asked how that firearm works for the two, Lydia notices she had the safety on which Amy comments of course she would do that, Mulder and Scully would give her hell if she gave Lydia a unsafe gun.

Lincoln and Lydia both sigh in disbelief, really not wanting like this to occur. Lydia just wanted some time at camp, and not to deal with another problem so soon especially with the Agents coming back. Lincoln says to Lydia this could be an opporunity to hear to find the Team Free Will Killer as the Agents must be working for them and to provide this info over to their hired off investigatior, Lydia doesn't disagree with this, as they can get answers, but while the andrealine is in her, she wanted to rest and not get in this so soon.

The Robot indicates he saw the agents sneak up behind him and the others during the dining cart, and how he was deactivated when he tried to attack them. Clyde asks for an analysis, The Robot does his analysis and that the Mirror agents are enforcers of a mirror world and that they can travel through any mirrors and that they must destroy all them to prevent this from happening. Lincoln and Lydia join Will, Clyde and David on this and they decide to help The Robot break the windows. Lincoln decides to just break them which he does which puts shock in Clyde and David that he is not only willing to, but is actually able to. Will and The Robot both acquire spray paint and give to Clyde, David and Lydia. David admits this is something in Hilda's comfort zone, Lydia and Clyde both point out Hilda deals with super natural, not whatever this is. David does point mirror stuff is in Hilda's ball park. Later Amy reads to Lincoln and Lydia about her job.

At Rave's House, Rave is busy getting some of his detective stuff with Dustin and Truman assisting him on this. Lincoln and Lydia both note the lack of parents and wonder how he is able to live on his alone like this. Lydia, Lincoln, Truman, Clyde, Amy, Rave, Dustin have the Bizarro Intellgence Agency stuff ready to go. Amy is working on an equivlant of a obstacle course on paper, some fire arm insutructions and clues on how to get perps working. She tells Lincoln, Clyde and Lydia that in the morning they'll get started to help Lincoln use his brain and Lydia to know how to defend herself a normal way. Clyde asks about what Amy means with this and The two discuss how they both have seeked Mrs.Santiago to get help, Lincoln wants to use his man with a plan creddentals for his future, and Lydia wants to channel all that andrealine she has which Clyde questions with all those adventures she has dealt with, while hasn't it occured until now. Lydia feels she has recently felt this and it's changing her and wants to channel it with Amy's help.

Part 3

As all the heroes are asleep, Lydia and Lincoln are both woken up by Amy who tells them it's time to get their gear in motion, She hands the two notes for intellgence and has a set of flags for a start and finish sign. She also assigns that they are trees to climb and rivers to swim through. Will asks what is with the noise and Amy says she's putting them both to their tests. Lincoln says he wants to be a cool investigator and Lydia wanting to be a special agent. Will can tell the latter has all that andrealine within her. Lydia is surpised Will knows this, Will explains that The Robot monitored her vital signs and noticed this.

Amy has Will help with teaching Lincoln and Lydia with learning the investigation side. Lydia has this feelings that she has dealt with this kind of thing at times as she writes this down. Amy then afterwards, decide to use the obstacle course ready. she has a starter's gun ready as Lincoln and Lydia both their hands down and Will holds the flag. He throws the flag up and Amy shoots it causing the two to begin their dash. Lydia though really shows her energy through it and manages to accomplish a good score. Lincoln then follows suit.

The others approach them and learn what the 4 were doing and Victoria advises them to follow into that manison which Rave agrees to. This is a trick that Dabble traps them in the mansion and they must find fuses to all escape. Neumann has Dabble continue to set some traps for them.

Lincoln, Lydia, Will, The Robot and Amy Santiago all then head to the kitchen and Dabble shrinks them and they all find themselves stuck on rails to get plenty of food. randomly. The Robot manages to lead the way by helping the 4 get them to their location  before getting another fuse.

Upon reaching a further part of the mansion, There is a dresser where they must use their mathmathics to their advantages. Larke takes advantage to dress up which Amy and Dee Dee decide to join up with this. All the While Lydia and Erica both roll their eyes at this and decide to head to the radio system.

Lincoln, Nate, Truman, Will and Rave join Lydia and Erica, to build high sums in equation to get another fuse. Lincoln looks asking what this has to do with math with all this, Lydia says it's writer decision

Lydia checks the map and sees that they're going to the sea next like the camping area. Larke confirms this as she and Troy look at the map, and Lydia asks will they need anything. Larke says she brought her suits, and hopes the others did too which Troy, Lincoln and others all did. Erica asks if Lydia brought hers, Lydia says recultantly.

Lincoln and Lydia approach Victoria asking about the next stop, Neumann says that she has been called out for a time being to deal with something. They ask who will be in charge while away, Neumann is confident Larke and Troy can do so as well, as Amy and The Robot aren't exactly doing things she agrees with.

Lincoln and Lydia approach Amy on what she did, Amy tells the two that she has been a big called out on her methods with them by Victoria. Amy says but with her being away for a while, she can continue to keep their skills honed. The two do agree do this

Bruce Wayne shows up. Larke, Lincoln, Lydia, Troy, Truman and Clyde are relieved to see Bruce, as it's been a while since they seen him.

Bruce admits it's been a while himself and he has been observing everything as well on this camp thing they were at with Selina's help. Selina explains he couldn't have been more subtle which the others are overjoyed too. Bruce and Selina are introduced to the Streaming Reisistance and David who havn't meet them yet. Lincoln and Lydia both hug Selina and Bruce which confuses them, Lydia explains she is relieved they are alive, Bruce questions why is she so worrying. Lydia is about to explain what she and Lincoln saw happen to Team Free Will and it's massacre.

This is when Anne's phone goes off and Lydia is stopped and Lincoln finds it's Ford and he wonders how they are doing. Lydia says she's doing great, apparently Bruce and Selina just showed up. Ford is relieved that the two are alive.

. Lincoln, Lydia, Ford, Larke, Bruce and Selina all discuss what has gone down on their ends, before hanging up. Will and Amy both then talk to Lincoln and Lydia about the phone, they thought Victoria took all the phones

Lydia said that her friend Anne gave them the phone to use to talk or chat if needed, since Ford is her mentor and close friend she still wants to talk with him. Amy smiles as that's how one thinks if one wants to be like her

As they wait for stuff, Lydia makes sand castles in the sand with Lincoln and Clyde and then plays volleyball with them and Troy.  During that time, Lydia conisders going halfway with Bruce's suspcions about Victoria. Lincoln does feel Neuman could be what Bruce says, but legit be an affable person,

Lydia confesses she and Lincoln learned about the Team Free Will Massacre that happened to their friends that she and Lincoln both ran into which put her in major shock. Lincoln says that he and Lydia have been trying to think figure out who did on their own, and were struggling to tell Ford and the others about what they say so they had Dawn do so.

Lydia comes in rollerskating to the room and sitting next down to him. Lincoln asks how about the roller skates and Lydia said she just felt in the mood to do so. Lincoln asks about the loose hair look, Lydia says it's all about the free unkempt spirit she has, he tells he does like the look on her. Lydia blushes and asks Lincoln next if they made the right decision telling the others about the massacre. Lincoln concedes it wouldnt have been easy regardles of who, but when they're ready to tell Ford, they'll be more comfortable to do the more they do it. Lydia proves Larke right by saying it does come with growing up, doing things you don't want to which may have been why she and him eventually did go out in public as shown in the dance photos. Lincoln checks Anne's phone and notices that the playlist for what Luan and Luna did for the that big gig they had just got recevied as well as what has been found on by Their guy. Lydia nods and Lincoln decides to put on one of his favorite tracks and Lydia just rolls her eyes pointing is he really going to do this. Lincoln puts on his helmet and a pair of roller skates and tells her turnabout is fair play considering what she did earlier with the bike, and grabs her. Lydia being a bit suprised by this gesture, states she had that one coming and grins and begin rollerskating dancing with him.

The Robot wakes them up the next day who are noticeably pretty exausted due to the roller skate dancing thing they did. Erica comments about Lydia and Lincoln not getting much sleep due to their roller ring activites, Selina is baffled on ping/pong the two act in many regards between being mature for their age and being childish.

Upon arriving in Bikini Bottom, The Robot takes the lead to see if it could find any hostile life upon confirming it lets everyone come out and with what Dustin and Truman invented last night, Nate, Erica, Lincoln, Will, Lydia and Dee Dee all take a curious loo and notice a kraken but also a mermaid which is point to the others and when The Robot takes a closer look it is analyzed to be Ruby and Chelesa.

Lincoln, Lydia, Will, Nate and Erica all holler to them and Ruby is glad to see the others again asking how was the wedding for Jaune and Johanna. Lydia comments it was something most unsual and not to forget for them as she, Lincoln and Will remember the events of the wedding of seeing Death, The frying pan incident and apparently other mishaps that occured around the time and after wards. Nate gets Amy, Dustin, Clyde, David and Rave to see this for themselves as Truman, Larke, Troy, Bruce and Selina are a bit confused at all this.

When David by the looks of it shared Lincoln and Lydia's photo of their monicure in the yearbook with Chelesa. Lydia and Lincoln just looked baffled how far this went and give David looks for sharing that with her.

Bruce just asks straight up what were Lydia, Lincoln, Clyde and David all really doing a few months ago and how they met the Streaming Resistance. They decide to just get it off their shoulders as Lydia does note that the more they tell, the easier to drop the big bomb on Ford.

Ruby takes in charge of the kids and brings them to Jellyfish Fields and Sand Mountain to catch jellyfish and to go sand boarding she advises them not to kill or overmilk the jellyfish they catch. Lincoln, Lydia, Will, Truman, Clyde, David, Dustin, Erica, Nate, Dee Dee and Rave all agree and go to catch some jellyfish treating like capturing butterfiles. Lydia intitally wants to roller skate again but Lincoln does stop her saying this is grass areas and not pavement

At Sand Mountain later, Lydia, Truman, Erica, Lincoln, Nate all get sand boards and ride down the sand mountains due to Dustin, Clyde, David and Rave deciding not to get too involved and just sit down and relax on the heights. Each of the five each take a different kind of sand board to use

Afterwards, Lincoln, Lydia and Will all approach Amy and Victoria and go on about what they did. Amy asks about the others and Will explains they're relaxing they wanted to see Santaigo

Victoria explains to Amy, that she has another way to help those two without taking Amy's approaches and explains that she can help Lydia and Lincoln do some right for what they want and fight the "right way". Lydia says she's fine but wants to hear her out first as does Lincoln and Will. Amy asks what is the right way to Vic, Neuman says she'll explain later, but first to spend more time at the carival for them all. She watches them and sighs feeling conflicted to follow N.Tropy's plan to size up Lydia., Lincoln and the others or to do things her own way. She still does have to deal with the others going after her as well.

Lydia and Lincoln separate from the others relax after Lincoln won some carnival games while having cotton candy get a text from Bender and learn he has discovered what happened to James Rogers and May through his associates. Lydia is relieved Bender has some results for them, and she hopes that The Streaming Resistance get some evidence as well for them.

Though Ham Hand is huge and stronger, Lydia shows her intellgence is key by outwitting him by keying in on the bald spot and using the reality and mind stone to put him on the ropes. Neuman's daughter eventually reveals she's a supe to her which does surpise her, though she steels herself to get her out of any danger of her own powers or from Fifi or Ham Hand

As everyone marks what they saw through their encounters, Lydia is thanked by Victoria like Lincoln for saving her daugher and for accepting herself as a supe. Lydia learns from Neuman about how Neuman injected her daughter with Compound V to make her strong and to be able to defend herself. While Lydia is appalled by this, she has no idea what Compound V is due to not reading the Boys Comics which her parents deemed too violent for her until told.

Lincoln pulls her aside where he confides about his past deals with Fifi and how it lead to him endangering his family all because he wanted to be a hero and bond with his new Gran Gran, he may not hold too much of a grudge but it was still a bad time for him. Lydia just listens and lampshades the events of the movies so she can understand his misgivings. Lydia tells Lincoln that being vulerable doesn't make him any less of a man to her, that why he is more of a man than anyone she knows like she explained before, They also come to agree Lincoln isn't the boy he was back then and now he's got a partner willing to help with this on his side in her.

This confidence in him, leads her to even tell Myrtle that she will be backing him against Fifi despite Myrtle's warning that Lydia doesn't know who she or what she is capable for this Larke agrees with.

Lydia is eager, though Lincoln isn't so much due to 2 experiences which he tells Lydia about. Lydia shows a understanding side and tells him that he doesn't have to getting it, to her suprise he decides to anyway because maybe he needed a different kind of teacher and her showing understanding as always is why. Lydia decides to adopt the braids look as it's fitting for karate.

While having to do menial tasks, Lydia does manage to find a way to learn karate, in particuar in offense styles to compsensate for Lincoln excelling in defensive styles which they show when sparring together.

Part 7

After The heroes all returned they all discusss the unusalness of Nevermore's Recovery as an universe this is a bit of a unusality espeically for Will and The Robot who are a little saddened to see that Wednesday can just move back to the universe as they legitmately liked having her with them and this is agreed by Lincoln and Lydia who also took the time to really get to know her.

Eugene tells the heroes that he can stay while they go to figure out the rest of the situation and he can help some help with Wednesday and Enid. Amy, Lincoln, Will and Lydia discuss the situation with Cobra Kai among themselves and considering how they were affected, being they will have to go where zombies are envident.

Lydia and Lincoln watch Neuman, Dustin, Bruce and Selina discuss the zombie situation with Amy who does believe what they saw and did so herself as she and Will believe the two. They talk among themselves if they should really go see Jack Sullivan as they know it's been a while since they directly saw him after helping him find his friends. Lincoln says it's his gut feeling after seeing those things which Lydia agrees with him and there could be answers there. Lincoln says that it involve letting others know what happened down there and how Lydia and Lincoln did something that made them heroes of their own stories. He finds Lydia isn't there and asks where she is and she jump tackles him and has her hands on him saying he was told to keep his defenses up by Daniel, Lincoln just squizs his eyes and smiles holding her too on his back saying that he likes her assertiveness and that he is keeping them but did she as he reaches a feather out of his pocket and tickles her to turn the table on her. Lydia says she's walked into that one as they lie down looking at the sky

Eugene, Will and Amy with Neuman, Dustin, Bruce and Selina all approach the two saying if they're doing being playful they have decided to take the two up on their end to go to where they have in mind. They just need to wait for Mrs.Frizzle to finish repairs. Rave is assisting with doing the work

Larke happily shows Troy off saying how he just changed into this total dreamboat with all that new power and athelticism he has now.

Lincoln, Lydia and Vicky are all a bit supscious of this. With Neuman questioning to herself what was Captain Putty and Zib really doing figuring immediately neither of them took Compound V. Lydia points that it's so obvious that Larke would go all over Troy after becoming a huge superhuman macho teenager as she would go for that kind of guy as a popular girl. Lincoln does address what if it was him who became that kind of guy, she wouldn't deny showing attraction over this. Lydia admits he has a point, but it's him and even though she sees multiple guys looking like this, she doesn't show attraction to them, if he did, she totally would because of who he is on the inside would reflect that. Will asks if Lincoln and Lydia want a sample of Troy's DNA, to check as he suspects something too.

Larke asks about what they think and WIll says that the two of them want to study Troy's DNA and have suspcion about this. Larke hears out Will and decides to help the two and even teasing how she saw Lydia and Lincoln pratice karate/fighting and though it was cute. Lincoln admits that he and her have a different approach to their relationship that her and Troy as well as Johanna and Jaune. Will asks if the two and him can talk on that.

Larke has a syringer ready and asks Dustin, Bruce and Selina to help with what they suspect. Selina asks why, if Larke is going gaga over what happened to him. Larke makes no bones that she likes it, but Lincoln, Lydia and Will all have some suspcion about what is going on with him. Dustin does tell Larke he has one already but he'll take one with Bruce and Selina as they decide to bide their time.

Will, David, Lincoln and Lydia all discuss matters about what happened with Hilda, Johanna, Jaune Arc and their family as what they learned from The Streaming Resistance as The Robot can confirm that they are petrified at the hands of a kind of magic used by a trolls.

Lydia says that Enid is looking into it and so is Mulder and Scully and that is happened in Arcadia. Will asks if maybe she could have asked Jim, Claire or Blinky about this. Lincoln says that didn't come at the time when they talked so it didn't reach him, but he does need to take it one step at a time. David asks does Lincoln or Lydia have an ideas to help Hilda and Frida, Lincoln does and explains that he may have an friend who could help on this. David then mentions he should call that pal, Lydia says that she may but must keep their phone call to him under wraps.

Lincoln, Lydia, Truman, Larke, Troy, Clyde, Will, Amy, The Robot, David all return to the others and note how they are all been talking on the matters. As Frizzle gets the magic school bus ready as she has everyone take a seat and she has Lincoln and Lydia tell them where to go and Mrs.Frizzle is able to travel into the dimension to land in The Last Kids on Earth Universe

Peacemaker, Jake, Eleven and Wednesday are informed by Lydia alongside Lincoln that Daniel will be in touch with them at some point. Though they are told, he might meet up with the others first before and and that it will be Daniel who decides this as Lydia and Lincoln inform them as they head to the Last Kids On Earth Universe. Lincoln and Lydia are also mentioned by Amy and Will Robinson as they're looking for Jack in that universe as he can help.

Lincoln and Lydia both sneak off to see if they can find Jack Sullivan, Amy and Will go after them saying they are not going alone here and are also joined by The Robot, Erica and Truman who won't let them try to sneak off alone.

Lincoln, Lydia Amy, Will, The Robot, Erica and Truman don't seem to have any luck in finding Sullvian even though the former two knows he lives here with his other friends. Lincoln asks if Lydia has another idea where he could be. Lyida admits she really doesn't know herself ever since they went there before dealing with Vecna and how it must be hard for them to keep track of everyone. Erica and Truman agree with this as Erica says she has a hard time herself keeping track of things too. Truman does find some letter flying down and it pinches him and Truman hands it to the three of them and they read it together it's a invite to Vernon Manor which has the three supscious.

Amy and The Robot see Lincoln, Lydia, Truman and Erica where they tell the two about Vernon Manor.

Lincoln, Lydia, Erica and Truman tell the rest of the team about what they know and are informed of what's going on with Troy. When it comes to the invite, Lydia refuses to wear some formal dress to it and wants to be herself which Larke says does Lydia hate being a girl, Lydia says she doesn't she just doesn't want to be fitting in like typical girls and Erica agrees with this.

The kids decide to go attend with Larke to check in on Troy, apart from Lydia, Lincoln, Amy and The Robot. The Robot decides he will see further if Mr.Sullivian is where he thinks he is and Amy will see if they find what happened to him or where he went. This leaves Lydia to collect her thoughts, as it feels that what happened a long time ago is starting to come to light. Lincoln apporaches her asking if she wants to go to the Vernon Manor even if she doesn't like the fancy dressup thing, She accepts considering that that they can see how Daniel San's methods of Karate came to mind and to undercover who could further be behind things here and that Bender should help out though Lincoln feels Bender is proably going to be invited too.

Lincoln notices a familiar face and he goes after it with Lydia also deciding to pursue this too asking Lincoln what's going on. Lincoln tells her that she was right things from the past are coming to light and once again it's has to do his family.

Carmen and Juni also confirm that the flying hair bands came from them too. Afterwards, She returns to help deal with the Cobra Kai Zombies invasion and eventually Anger Rot who proves a tougher challenge and nearly kills her and her friends until he has to be backed off by The Robot, Bruce and Selina.

Daniel returns to confirm what is going on with the Streaming Resistance as she listens. Lydia felt like she was lucky not to be dealing with her fears at Angor Rot's hands. Deciding to go on a real camping expedition, the crew head to Camp Mastodon to enjoy some time. Lydia and Lincoln get a cabin of their own and exchange what they are dealing with Lydia deciding to help spy on The Dufus and Tek as well. Lincoln asks about Angor Rot and Jack Sullivan, which has Lydia deduct that Rot is behind Hilda's petrification and that Jack has been on his own travels with his own friends regarding a demon god. Lydia calls up Dawn with Lincoln to inform her of what they are doing and what's coming up with Tek Manor as well as telling Ford and Sid where they are and upon being told of where they are, Lydia gets uncomfortable realizing they're where she and Lincoln dealt with that satantic judge figure, though she and Lincoln keep what they actually know from Ford and Sid here due to their uncomfortableness with the subject.

Lydia drags Lincoln to go fishing early next morning so they can relax and her own way which he happily goes for. As the two wait they are playing chess while waiting for the fish to bite as Lydia decided that they might as play the thinking man's game then she will get into the water with flippers on and holding the worm to lure the fish to them and Lincoln will pull her out. At least this is what Toby sees as he arrives there.

During their fishing, the two run into Bender and Anti Cosmo who tell them what they found regarding their massacre. Lincoln reveals to the two that he also found some connection to Rot and their friend Jack who also found some connection to it as well. They also mention Neuman, who Anti Cosmo and Bender warn the two about which they don't deny due to the skeptical nature of Neuman constantly leaving for something. Toby also arrives as well and Lydia introduces him to Bender and AC as someone who helped in their case in China town thus revealing that were they in the same conflict with Milton Midas like them. The 4 then discuss the double life they all have and how they all deal with it. With Lincoln and Toby, Lydia recieves a call from Professor Membrane and Peacemaker about what has been going on on their ends, and she mentions her and Lincoln's own encounter with Angor Rot and their own deals with Tek Knight while being joined by AC and Bender who Membrane works with. Joined by Toby's wingman, AAAGGURRH they all come back with their catch to the others and introduce AC And Bender to them and have them hide when Neuman comes in.

As they listen to Neuman, Lydia and Lincoln watch carefully as much as they want to trust Vicky and her own campaigns and beliefs., The two know Bender and Anti Cosmo are right, Lydia pays attention to what Neuman is saying as she has a hand behind her back directing Bender to record what Vicky is saying.

Part 9

After Neuman leaves, Lydia discusses what has been discussed with Lincoln, Toby, Will, Amy, ARUGGH, Erica, The Robot, Bender and Anti Cosmo and hears what the latter two have been dealing with on her. Lydia decides on the more non violent way to deal with Vicky as Bender and Anti Cosmo find themselves agreeing with her, with her and Lincoln agreeing to play the undercover approach to them willing to fight off her forces just not her.

As they made way to the Boys Universe, she is called by Mulder and Scully through the Robot and her and Lincoln with Will and Toby discover what is going on with Hilda and her family with Frida in what they are dealing with in terms of the Gumms Gumms. Lydia does admit that while she wants to help Hilda and her family, they will do so after dealing with Neuman and her forces and then she and her friends can help out with this as the duo have a set of pirorities.

She meets back with Peacemaker and the others as well and is taken to get ready for the Tek Knight Manor. Larke and Chelesa force their way on her by making her wear a poofy dress, having to wear good shoes and wear blue. Feeling uncomfortable with this, she follows Amy's advice and uses the infinity stones to change her dress wear to yellow and grey shorts and shirt, runner shoes and compressing her red hair;s length. This gets a noticeable look from Lincoln who prefers her this way and as the few times she does do so, Lincoln always considers her attractive in her own way.

She and Lincoln discuss their situation and are joined by Bender and Ac who meet up with Professor Membrane and Slade later. As they do so, Lydia is deciding to figure out they are going to put their Interspy mission to affect. She admits that part of her comfortableness with her attractive look is for spy missions as well as just wanting to be this way around Lincoln and wants to dress in tomboy colors over girl ones. Bender and Anti Cosmo instruct them to take their date seriously but always act undercover which they agree to. The two also mention that they are a bit worried of their other friends they made during the time. Thankfully Krel and Steve do arrive thanks to Carmen and Juni and decide to assist the duo.

As she sits down, she enjoys some food with Lincoln as they have Rave and Truman assist them in this and he also has Carmen and Juni assisting them as well with Steve and Krul where she is using the connections to figure some shortcuts and what is really going on here. She is quick to notice that Neuman is going to expose Bender and Slade's involvement with Vought prior and potentially their own and she goes to take an action. This is when Neuman gets exposed by Tek Knight and the Dufuses arrive about her being a supe, Lydia looks at Bender, Slade and Anti Cosmo who just shrug having no idea what happened.

-When Troy goes nuclear, she and Lincoln tell the others do to go as She heads with Lincoln, Bender, Slade and Anti Cosmo to go to discover more. Krel helps the two by handing them weapons of their own to use them and the two take them as they join Bender and Anti Cosmo as Slade covers them. With Lincoln, Anti Cosmo and Bender, Lydia undercovers info on Neuman as well as things that are connected to what she and Lincoln have been dealing with.

Lydia discovers how far Neuman's employer has been acting against her and her friends, though not the name. Lydia also learns it was not a lie what Neuman said and that she actually does care and like her and Lincoln, while also trying to clean up and had her loyalties tested between her boss and them. Admitting she didn't want things going the way it did with everything revealed she lets Neuman go seeing the truth.

Later, she is forced to tell Ford about Judge Holden as both Lincoln and her were mentioned by him and they had to explain their history with them and their own quest they had without the rest of Team Free Will. Lydia herself had to tell Ford that she went behind him and Team Free Will's backs to do this too. She talks to Lincoln about the ordeal, as it's like everything that they been doing without Ford or Castiel's knowledge is coming back on them and coming to light. To make things go tense, Tom Lucitfor arrives to warn Bender, Anit Comso, Himself, Lydia, Toby, Amy, AARUGGH, Will and Steve that they are in grave danger and that they need to head down to Mexico, after receiving what Tom has to tell them and finding Jack Sullivan who also tells them of what he does.

She also shows potentially blind faith at the news of Holden being around. She also orders 2 buckets of fried chicken which Lincoln notices, he confronts her about this. Lydia tells him he is trying to ease herself and have some fun and challenges him to another eat under the table with one of his favorite foods and whoever loses buys desert. Lincoln accepts noting she is just trying to have fun and that she'll tell him about this when ready, much like He has for her.

Anti Cosmo, Bender and Toby notice it too with the latter wanting some too. Anti Cosmo and Bender also ponder how they are going to deal with this.

Pop Pop and Myrtle tell Lydia as well as Lincoln that they know who has been plotting against them and she is eager to find out who it is. However they forget due to their age and just explain that their allies did discover something from a place that is far far away. Lydia looks at Lincoln wanting to talk about what they meant, this is when Lincoln says either they must have went to a place far far away, a time or even space it's self. Lydia does take what she has heard from Bender and AC and hands it to Lincoln to get a good idea of who is their man, though it's because Anti Cosmo and Bender noted Lincoln's grandparents senility. Anti Cosmo and Bender also mention the aspects of the double lives that the duo has had as well as their own and now it's coming to an end their abiltiy to do so. After this, Lincoln, Bender, Lydia, Anti Cosmo and Toby discuss the god of the underworld in question and that Lydia does have idea on this due to knowing the tale of it and needing to find something down there to stop his potential release.

Lydia overhears from Lincoln, his owrry that Ford will likely kick them both off the team for hiding things for so long from him and the rest of the team. Lydia says she doesn't blame him due to being his protege, though the fact that they have helped and saved others and himself shouldn't harm them as much as it could and that they should talk to him and explain why they kept Team Free Will out of the loop so long about their own adventures. Lydia is able to find Neuman and capture her, learning Neuman has no intent to harm her, Lincoln or the Streaming Resistance due to her step dad's deal with Black Noir for helping them deal with Solider Boy. Lydia shows surprise that their deals with Solider Boy did have a positive effect, but she does question if Neuman didn't try to kill them or was trying?

Neuman tells Lydia that it goes back a long while ago his mark and that he has been wagering retailation against Team Free WIll for something that was done to him, by the hands of Lydia and it's a really petty reason too. Lydia also learns the perpuator was behind The Spot, Worked with the CSM and leaked Lydia's vigilante era.

Carmen and Juni arrive with invites for both Lincoln and Lydia to be knighted as a result for their work and helping the Streaming Resistance. Lincoln asks for Team Free Will to join them in this. He is seen in his best suit as Lydia comes to get him looking rather nice herself and learns that for the first time, she feels comfortable in a dress as it's her color/style and it's in her own way with her hair down, a yellow dress and brown boots while showing some signs of her maturity thanks to Dawn and Chelesa helpig out. , he complements her for someone who doesn't want to look beautiful, she is just that deep down. As they are knighted, Lincoln asks if they can't keep their ties to The Streaming Resistance and adventures a secret, then maybe they can keep their true romance still a secret which Lydia agrees to as he puts her hair back into pig tails, Lydia also makes Lincoln chuckle when she tells him that she wants her spy/agent alias to be LL007 as he thinks that neither her or him can live up to that number.

Bender and Anti Cosmo visit Lydia and Lincoln before they see Team Free Will and inform Lincoln and Lydia of what they found in that there are dots connected to the Chronicles of Zaragoza events and that Ford told the two of what he dealt with. Lincoln and Lydia see the rest of the Team and learn that Ford's decision is that he lost some trust for the two due to this and he talked to Mulder, Scully, Carmen, Juni and Bender on this. Ford decided to take some distance from them, but he didn't revoke anything from them and is proud of the two.

Book 3: Culmination

Dealing with all the loss in such a short time has left her to drinking and eating at her rumpus room where she is joined by Lincoln, as they were trying not to lean on each other so much as Lydia didn't want to push her issues on to him after what he dealt with. She is joined by Bender and Anti Cosmo as well who figured she would be here, and Lydia talks to them and Lincoln about everything that happened and trying to tune into how she feels. When Peacemaker, Will, Jake, Amy, Eleven and Wendesday call her and Lincoln to discuss N.Tropy with them, Lydia is left uncertain what to do if she is acting against him in vegenance or to do what's right as there is equal pull for both sides.

To Lydia's surprise and delight, Lincoln does just that, amazing himself even that he is who it got passed to. Lydia says to herself that she figured that if anyone was worthy of it, it was him and all these adventures with him were enough evidence for her.

Relationships

Her Friends

She has a close relationship and friendship with her friends in her universe and is close to each of them in a different way whether it's being the other girl in a group, sharing a passion for sports or just getting someone better.

Marcus

While she is close to her friends in her universe, she might be the closest to him as she has more confidence in him than either of his friends when it comes to running for the school Olympics or be trusted with the secret that he made a video game and being advocated by him when he reads comics being a bit into comics herself. While Bender and Team Free Will know about their relationship, They hide their relationship from their peers. They broke up as they felt like just wanting to be friends, Marcus also learns of Lydia's interest in Lincoln and accepts it, he even learns of her demi sexuality and helps her accept it more after being diagnosed by her therapist. She also hates Henry Creel/Vecna for what he did to him and one of the reasons she took the fight against him personally.

Castiel

A close friend and her leader of her tenures in Team Free Will. She looks up to Cas in a way and respects his convictions. He led the team against The Children of BlackGarurumon and other villains in Isle Tour where she first appeared and teamed up with Slade and Bender. While Castiel didn't appear in the following story he did make a point to keep her safe from Thawne without her knowing it and had a hand in saving her from the spear of Destiny alongside Ford who was unaware of this too. Lydia and Castiel both work together in Return of the Weirdmagedon Cult to stop Toffee and Bill Cipher and spefically to find out the weirdness in Lincoln. Castiel safrices his life to protect her and the others at the end and Lydia is left uncertain how Team Free Will will be lead, though some of the team thinks it should be her. His death does haunt her at times, though over time she put it behind her and remembers the good times she had with him

Team Free Will

She gets along with many of the members of the team and hangs with them on off hours. While not a leader, She is given the chance to co-lead with Castiel thanks to her experiences where she worked with Bender and his friends. She is especially close to Louise and May in the team, with her learning more about dork stuff and geek stuff from May while taking part in her kid side with Louise who attended school with her because the school was doing transfers for a semester at first.

She tends to get along better with the female friends more than her male ones on accounts with her relationships with Ronnie Anne, Amanda, Sid, Cleo, Luz and Anne for one. Though it's ironic since her three closest friends are male which are her best friend/love interest Lincoln, her mentor Ford Pines and Her closer partner Truman.

Bender

Like Castiel, Lydia likes and respects Bender, though she is more willing to go against his orders than Cas because she joined him and his friends out of safety on top of that. Bender is a bit more forgiving of Lydia than most and never calls her out on doing her own thing since he has done that with Joker. She learnt of him through Isabella who made the connection to Team Free Will. Bender trusts her to enough to be the 3rd person to rewrite reality with him and Skipper which is something. Lydia and Bender both helped each other deal with the Weirdmagedon Cult, The Conspiracy and Belos's Empire. The Latter Lydia becomes aware that Bender has been fighting the same foes as her and Team Free Will. Bender is arguably her biggest foil alongside Hilda and Morag when it comes to her.

The B Team

Like Team Free Will, she worked with the team directly against Thawne and his legion. She was a bit more reluctant due to being less familiar with them, but did her best to fit in becoming close friends with Isabella, Bender and Skipper especially. It was also through this that she met her other 4 close friends below

Amanda Payne

Amanda is one of Lydia's best friends and a sister to her, she instantly bonded with Amanda and they hung out together and even trust each other with secrets. Amanda is no pushover though and she did call Lydia out on sneaking behind the others back which Bender didn't and nearly getting attacked by The Legion. Amanda and Lydia try their best to keep their friendship close in spite of what Amanda is going through. They also have a way of saving like Amanda saving her from Deathstroke and Lydia saving Amanda from Thawne when Thawne brainwashed her. Her friendship with Amanda remains strong but a bit more distant due to Amanda's age and duty compared to Lydia still being a kid/preteen.

Amanda helps Lydia deal with certain issues and like Castiel laid her life down to protect her from the Infinity Gems as they self destructed. Her and Cleo's death haunted her even more than Castiel, and it took Lincoln to help her out of it.

Ford Pines

The Author of the Journals that Lydia found in the early stories of the TGTTA 2 story. Lydia was the person who brought him back into the multiverse. Lydia is the B Team member closest to Ford as she shares his interests and wanted to learn more about him. Ford is like a father to her and is protective of her and also a mentor to her, teaching her about what he saw, the Ultra Recon Gauntlets and warning of his enemy Bill Cipher. Ford's protectiveness of Lydia is what led him to help Amanda find her when she fell in a black hole after a fight with Thawne and to keep safe from Thawne's enforcer and main right hand man Deathstroke. He also managed to keep Lydia safe from The Spear of Destiny with Cas' help. Saving Ford and Amanda became her main motivation in Doomworld with Marcus, Bender, Skipper, Rick and Twilight from Thawne and his legion.

Lydia afterwards took apprenticeship with Ford in Gravity Falls every few times due to her fascination with his journals. As his protege, she respects Ford and is loyal to him even when Bill Cipher tries to put dents in their relationship by trying to screw with her fatique. Her biggest fear is being an unworthy protégé to him which Ford reassures her isn't the case. They also work together to stop Bill Cipher and Toffee with Ford trusting her to lead them despite everything to show their close relationship. Ford sees Lydia like his own kid and Lydia sees Ford as her hero and did a report on him at school

Ford can get annoyed with Lydia's tendency to be sneaky and go on her own at times, and she feels he can be too protective at times. However Ford understands that Lydia is trying to get out of his shadow and Lydia knows Ford is being protective due to being like Grunkle Stan to Dipper and Mabel. Apart from Lincoln, Ford is the person Lydia is the closest to. His great knowledge has also helped her shine as an intellectucal as well

Cleo

Like Amanda Payne, Cleo is one of Lydia's best friends and another big sister to her. Lydia met her when she was separated from her friends as Cleo saved her from drowning. Afterwards they teamed up to get her back to her friends with the help of Lincoln and his sisters. Cleo's protectiveness came when Deathstroke followed them to the island she became a mermaid as it was the best link to get her back. Cleo continued to help Lydia and The B Team as an investigator of the multiverse though she kept this between her, Lydia and Lincoln. Unlike Amanda and Ford, nothing happened to her and Cleo came out of hiding to help Lydia after Doomworld was formed. This was how she met Bender and Skipper, she assisted them in stopping the Legion and helped Lydia deal with her sadistic choice at Bill Cipher's hand. Afterwards they stayed more in touch with each other and helped each other a lot though Cleo did occasionally tease her about her friendship with Lincoln thinking the two liked each other. Their friendship took some bumps After Cleo turned to the dark side but the two still care about each other, Enough for Cleo to spare her own life with Amanda to protect her during her fight with Vecna and the unstable Gems. Like Amanda it caused her great grief going fowards

Lincoln Loud

"To Me , there's only two boys : him and everyone else. Some girls consider me weird for not showing any interest in guys and having boy interests, but I do show attraction and interest in him and only him. It felt cliché and weird to like your best friend that way. But overtime I realized how foolish it was, Both of Us realized we were meant to be despite our reservations about our true relationship."

- Lydia on her relationship with Lincoln when talking to Hilda

Like Cleo, Ford and Amanda, Lincoln and Lydia became friends during the events of TGTTA 2. Lincoln like Cleo found her and the three worked to get her back to her friends. Lincoln unlike Cleo joined Amanda and Ford, as well as her with The B Team. While Lydia kept close friendships with the four, Lincoln was the one she kept closest with, hanging out with him and Clyde frequently. As well as Linc's other friends Liam, Rusty, Zack and Ronnie Anne. Lydia even got Linc to work with her in being Ford's apprentice, and helps him when Clyde can't. Cleo as a result thinks they like each other though they deny it, though they spent a lot of time together and set dates. Their relationship let Bender's team become friends with Lincoln's sisters on top of that.

Lincoln and Lydia's relationship is one of the main themes of Phase 4 and they are the two main protagonists of the storylines. Both of them go to a lot of trouble to help each other, With Lydia not getting any sleep to figure out what's going on with Lincoln and being protective of him when threatened by Luv and Lincoin being equally concerned with Lydia's insomnia and fatigue when it came to Bill Cipher. Its all but transparent by the end of Chapter 5, that Lydia has a crush on Lincoln. In Chapter 7, it's apparent her crush is mutual as Lincoln confesses it to Ronnie Anne, Anne and Amanda and Lincoln's biggest fear is her rejecting him. He even calls her Lydes as a affectionate nickname and Lydia calls him "Linkers" back.

Lydia's love for Lincoln comes his chivalry, loyalty and goodness as well as their similarities. Lydia does have reservations about the possibility of them being a thing due to their age maturity and the fact they are best friends/partners and it would be awkward. Despite this, she is considered Lincoln's ideal type of girl he is into and she matches everything he looks for in a person and is his ideal Type. Both Lydia and Lincoln work as a crack duo which comes to a head when they face Toffee and Bill CIpher fused on a rematch and actually defeat them working together. Lydia also serves as Lincoln's mutual confidant and is the one he's the most honest with about his doubts, insecurities, and fears and remains the one above all others who knows what's going on with him even after he opens more to others.

THis is proven when Lydia is the one to snap Lincoln out of his meltdown and convinces him to take a stand against the witch she wants to dust. She also goes out of her way to help Lincoln deal with his trauma regarding Linka being killed by Morag due to Lydia herself being close to Linka. She also goes out of her way to help him after the trauma remerges and advises him what to do after saving him yet again while reassuring him he isn't going to do what others did to him.

Team Free Will Diassembled see Lydia try to confess her feelings for him at certain points later on in the story while once again being the dynamic duo and Lincoln tries to confess his own feelings with her. Lincoln and Lydia both share a good amount of moments together that show how much their relationship is growing romantic. Usually they're cut short by others usually Hilda, they almost kiss in Chapter 5 and Lydia then at the spur of the moment kisses Lincoln on the lips in the Epilogue after Lincoln helps her. Both of them grow awkward as they still haven't told the other the truth and Lydia freaks out and Lincoln calms her down.

Despite not confessing their love for each other, The two indirectly do confess do others and themselves just how much Lydia and Lincoln really love each other.

Lincoln states being around her is when he feels whole, he can fight on and feel better for who he is, Lincoln is more confident around Lydes, he doesn't struggle to trust her and she makes him matter. Lydia for her part states that as smart as she was, Lydia was unaware of what she could really do until she meet Lincoln and Team Free Will. she never knew she could be a super heroine, be a worthy apprentice to a brillaint man with 6 fingers, show potential to be a duchess, give life and theraptical  advice, or even fall truly in love and not just one of those puppy loves things but truly actually love someone.

In Countdown, Lydia confesses her love for Lincoln and Lincoln returns those feelings. She initially thought he was in love with Hilda, which Lincoln says he does love Hilda, but it's Lydia who he feels a closer connection to. Upon deciding among themselves how to proceed with this, Lydia and Lincoln decide after an awkward kiss results in their teeth being stuck together to become a couple and do so behind the backs of their friends to deny them the satisfaction and to get back at them for the teasing. The relationship and bond deepens after this as the two work in sync as a duo and live together on occasion. Despite her tomboy nature, and being both kids, The two are very loving and supportive and take their romantic and best friend relationship seriously

Her realtionship with him caused trouble for Hilda who saw her as a competitor for Lincoln's heart, they eventually bury the hatchet upon learning Lydia's demisexuality and asexuality where Lydia came to realize she loves Lincoln and only him, she loves no one else the way she likes him. Something Lincoln knows and Hilda learns. It also meant that Lydia reserves any flirty and romantic behavior to Lincoln alone.

Chronicles of Zaragoza reveals that they have stayed together as boyfriend/girlfriend for 14 years and counting, live together and work in similar occupations which involve helping people who need it and managed to break the cycle of heroes not knowing when to back away from the constant adventures and ruining through their lives mentally. Streamverse's epilogue reveals that Lydia and Lincoln got married in their early 20s and for 2 years with only certain people like Grace (Erica's future self), Jaune Arc and Johanna knowing.

Streamverse has them continuing to keep their dating relationship secret to the majority of the people they know, but still deeply in love. They both begin to question the multiverse and the purpose of adventure obessions wanting some normalness callbacking to Chronicles of Zaragoza. They join up with The Streaming Resistance together and are to help deal with their situations throught them and together. Lydia helps Lincoln figure out what he wants to and he helps her with her parenting situations with Jaune and Johanna eventually helping. They end up revealing their relationship at Sadie Hawkins with Lydia stomaching doing so and looking nice to help her best friend and boyfriend. Lincoln in turns defends from her from other girls as well, they also end up being the best man and maid of honor respectfully and help Jaune Arc and Johanna get married.

Double Life Emergence explains that Lydia always saw a real hero/man in Lincoln prior to considering her feelings for him went beyond being friends. She vouched for him to join Team Free Will despite doubts due to his being average, she went so far to go behind the team's back and decided to have him shadow her when it came to his first adventure. Helping him adjust to Team Free Will, like how Dawn helped her.

Dawn

Dawn is a close friend of Lydia's in Team Free Will and was revealed to be the person Lydia shadowed when she joined in Team Free Will, Something only Castiel and Lincoln are aware of among her team. Dawn also helped her be a competent pokemon trainer and assisted her in clearing Team Free Will's name from The Smoking Man and deal with The Spot. Due to their closeness, Dawn is aware of Lydia's relationship with Lincoln and it's true nature as well.

Fox Mulder and Dana Scully

Lydia met Mulder and Scully in Team Free Will: Diassembled during an investigation with Lincoln on a Demogrogon. They had a combatty first impression, but grew to trust each other and worked together against M.A.L.I.CE. Her relationship with them improved despite her setbacks when She and Lincoln were moved to New Hampshire to get away from the authorities as They insisted on being the liasons for them, this allowed them to spend Christmas with her and Lincoln. Mulder and Scully bought the house she lived in with their folks and went out of their way to insure they adopt her after what happened with her parents. She loves them dearly, but does find a bit hard to spend time with them due to their work alcoholic nature. She is closer to Mulder than Scully due to her nature being more of a daddy's girl but also loves Scully too.

Hilda

Hilda is Lydia's mutual acquainted and friend of hers she knows about through Lincoln. They officially meet in Team Free Will: Diassembled and work well together as a team. Despite how close Hilda is to Lincoln, Lydia is not jealous of Hilda and even was who she sent Lincoln to as part of therapy, and admitted when she and Lincoln confessed their love for each other, that she thought Lincoln liked Hilda.

They are both kept together as friends due to their shared friendship and love for Lincoln. Hilda does feel a one sided rivalry with Lydia for Lincoln as she is insecure of Lincoln's fondness for Her and develops jealousy and suspicion when she realizes Lydia is in love with Lincoln like Hilda herself. Lincoln to his credit is aware of how close he is to both of them and does want them to be friends,

While Lydia is a more graceful person when it comes to the thing between her, Lincoln and Hilda, Hilda is jealous and envious of Lydia and her relationship/friendship with Lincoln as Hilda feels only the number 2 girl to him, where as Lydia is number 1 to him. Though having Lincoln's favor wasn't the only reason Hilda is green with envy in regards to her, Hilda felt insecure of her live being better in some ways.

The Two mend the fences between each other when Lydia mentions to her what she has gone through in her own vulerabitlies. Lydia and Hilda are more similar than they think they are at times according to Jaune, Ford, Frida and Johanna. This allows them to try develop a closer bond as a result. In Streamverse, the two have a more virotic but closer relationship where Hilda can talk personal with her as well as Lincoln. Lydia helps HIlda alongside Lincoln find her grandparents and suspects Hilda was more than she seemed when Hilda told her the truth. They do however disagree on Anders and Hilda questions why Lyida like Jaune distrusts Anders and Lydia questions why Hilda is so eager to let him back in her life. Also Lydia makes Hilda think on her real desires as well.

Johanna

Lydia has a motherly relationship with Johanna, she refers to her as Mrs.Hilda and seems to hold a good deal of regard for her. While Lydia isn't a proper girl, Johanna doesn't mind due to her having Hilda and Johanna treats like her like her own kid. Johanna does show concern for her trying to be too mature and wants her to be a kid and she tries to insure she has a mother when Scully and Mulder are too involved in their work. They both seem to have a similar infinity for their significant others and helped them out of their struggles consistency. Johanne also helped her in her studies at times and helps her get closure on her family. Her interactions with Johanna also gave her a new perspective to approach her multiverses adventures and helped her get married to Jaune with Lincoln's help.

Jaune Arc

Lydia and Jaune Arc get along well and have a close intergenerational friendship. Streamverse expands on their friendship by expanding on their differences romantically and how they have common ground. Jaune like Lincoln is shown to confide in her when it comes to his own insecurities and issues. In the past he confided in her about wanting to spend his life with Johanna without telling her directly and directly vented to her about Anders where only he and Lydia saw issue with Hilda's biological dad returning and share questioning towards HIlda for just accepting it. He takes fatherly pride in her to an extent when she stomachs uncomfortable stuff and considered her to be the bridesmaid for his wedding to Johanna immediatly due to how much he can see in her. She also understood his love for Pyrrhha Nikos due to meeting her before meeting him and assisted him actively in dealing with Vecna upon learning of his role in her death.

Hilda's Family

Lydia meets Hilda's family and mostly gets along with them. Liking Astrid the most and while having a brief heat up moment with Phinium and his wife does come to realize the reasons and apologizes. Her fondess for Astrid is part to to her cool old lady personally and being a white sheep in Hilda's family to some extent. She does dislike Anders and distrusts him being the only other person other than Jaune Arc to really do so. It becomes apparent that Lydia feels this way for Anders due to her own general triggers against family abandonment and seeing him as a dead beat dad or man child who cared more about his adventuing over his family and this makes sense due to Lydia suffering some family abandonment. Lydia questions why Hilda doesn't have major abandonment issues towards him

Truman X

Other than Lincoln and Ford Pines, Truman is Lydia's closest male friend and forms a 3 musketeers aspects with Lincoln and Truman. Truman while a brat is kind to Lydia and cares about her because she reached out to him and became his 1st friend in the X's new home. Truman attended Royal Woods School with both Lincoln and Lydia and due to him being younger than them. The Two are protective of him with Lydia tying a girl's shoelaces together for breaking one his inventions as a sign of Lydia's unusual fiery tendencies. Truman helps Lydia get back to her life in Royal Woods and moves in with her and Lincoln into Royal Woods with his family.

Eobard Thawne

One of the worst enemies she has had, and the first real enemy she has a beef against. Like Slade and Bender, Thanwe knows of her. The B Team, Slade's Ensemble and Team Free Will all faced Thawne before and Lydia was who sealed him in his prison. When Thawne broke her, he destroyed her universe out of pettiance over her having the role of sealing him away. Thawne then tried to kill her when he found out she has the amulet to the Spear of Destiny and once she finds out his plans, that was when he reveals his plots against her and her friends. Lydia with help from Amanda, Ford, Lincoln and Cleo gets back to the others and acquires some gauntlets. Angered with Thawne's petty reasons for harming her, her life and her friends' lives, she saves her friends from Thawne, and to the shock of everyone. Lydia nearly murders Thawne in her anger after overpowering him with the gauntlets, Thawne escapes after taunting her she is as bad as him.

Thawne, feeling humiliated from Lydia's ambush on him, learns of Amanda's potential and brainwashes her to get even with her for it. Thawne also decides to erase her with the others after getting the Spear of Destiny, unaware that Ford and Castiel prevented this and because he believed she knew how to deactivate it correctly. Lydia was not motivated to get revenge on Eobard, but to save the friends, he endangered and decided to fight Amanda herself so the others can get Thawne.

Deathstroke

Despite hating Eobard Thawne more than Deathstroke, Lydia feared him more than Thawne due to her encounters with him. When Lydia ended up spying on him, Thawne, Joker and Toffee having a meeting, Deathstroke unlike the others knew there was a spy and nearly killed her. To her shock, Deathstroke knew it was her and when out of his way to prevent her from doing it again. Most of their encounters was Lydia scared of Deathstroke and trying to avoid getting harmed from him. When Lydia was separated from her friends, She got over her fear of Deathstroke with Cleo and Lincoln's help when Deathstroke learned of her surviving the black hole and when after her and fought him off. This is what got Lydia to go after Thawne.

After Doomworld, was established, she with Bender and Skipper found out Deathstroke wanted to team up with them against Eobard, Lydia was hesitant due to her encounters with him, though agreed when Deathstroke mentioned what happened with Amanda was against his deal with Thawne and how he didn't tell Thawne about Lincoln or Cleo allowing them to help out. She and Deathstroke then worked together to disable the spear being the only two apart from Eobard to know how the Spear of Destiny worked. Team Free WIll: Disassembled also shows that She has overcame any sense of fear towards and is willing to work with him and his crew which continues in Chang's Guide into The Galaxy

Toffee

While not a villain, that Lydia has a particularly adversarial relationship in comparison to Thawne's petty plots against her and the Fear Deathstroke gave her. Toffee is one of Lydia's main enemies in apart to his relationship to Bill Cipher and how not so different he is to her and her relationship with Ford Pines. Toffee did make one personal move on her, by targeting her directly with a sadistic choice in regards to the Spear of Destiny that she gives it to him or Toffee and BIll kill Starfire and Marceline.

This reaches a helm in Return in the Weirdmageddon Cult where Lydia openly opposes Toffee and works to defeat him, though there is nothing particularly personal between them. Both Lydia and Toffee are very similar to each other in many ways which makes their rivalry compelling, that being said Toffee does have a great deal of respect for her unlike Bill and does regard her as a worthy opponent after her and Lincoln stop him and Bill Cipher.

Bill Cipher

Like Thawne, Bill Cipher is a major enemy of hers. She first heard of him through Ford Pines who mentioned him frequently and wanted Lydia not to fall for the same trick he did she ever faces Bill Cipher. To the others surprise, Toffee was working with him, and without Ford's help. No one knew about Bill Cipher apart from her. Lydia is taunted in particular to her friends from BIll in that her actions with Ford was how he got out of his sealed dimension and that she had a hand in his return which Lydia regretted. Lydia knowing how to bring Bill down had him turn his attention to her. While the others were dealing with his followers, he tried to kill her directly though The Louds, Bruce and Selina stop him. Bill refers to her as Braceface and saw her as the key to get the spear and threatens her. She stops him from killing Bender, Skipper and Deathstroke and obliterates him in a battle in the mind. Bill is to her, what The Joker is to Bender as well as Hunson was to Lizbeth. Bill also seems to take pleasure in psychologically torturing her and trying to turn against Ford while using her fatique to his advantage.

Lydia was also who killed him both times he came around and Lydia hates Bill for going after Ford, Lincoln and the others and is potentially haunted by him. Bill is petty to her towards trying to kill her from hurting his eye and joining Lincoln in taunting him and doing this to get back to Ford.

Morag

One of Lydia's worst enemies and arguably the one who has angered her the most between Bill Cipher, Earl P Sidebottom and her. Lydia's hatred for Morag is vast in reasons. Whether its Morag's psychological torture of her, how Morag treats Lincoln or how Morag drags Lydia into Morag's blood feud with the Louds.

Morag's actions are part of why Lydia wanted to dust Morag at the end as well as desiring to protect Lincoln from Morag as anything Morag does to Lincoln will hurt her too.

Chandler

Upon setting in at Royal Woods, Lydia found herself bullied by Chandler similar to Lincoln. Unlike Lincoln, Lydia was very willing to fight back against him going so far to being uncharacteristic aggressive to him in plenty of cases usually because he's mean to her, or to Lincoln and Chandler is unaware of Lydia's fiesty and at times violently protective instincts to Lincoln. The 1st instance was when Chandler purposely criticized Lydia's report on Ford being her hero when the project was about someone historical. Thought it was seen as fine, Chandler got socked in the stomach by Lydia in cold fury at making fun of Ford and doing this again when Lincoln was mocked by him. The 2nd and more infamous of them was when during Cousins Day, when Chandler mocked Lincoln for not having a cousin and joking he killed her and hung a rope in front of him. Lydia overhears this with Lincoln's other friends and she decides she had enough and furiously confronts him about this demanding an apology for him. Chandler refuses and states he doesn't fear scared of her glares and that she should go put her face in a fence considering that where a braced face geek should be. Having enough, Lydia decides that she takes a drastic action and smashes Chandler's head in with a roller skate giving him a concussion and breaking his nose. She almost got in trouble for it, though Truman helped get her out of it.

• Bullying, Hurting or Mocking Lincoln is probably the worst way to anger her, as she has a violently protective streak with him and will go so far to do this to Lincoln's own sisters and will even get violent with others like Chandler Mcann. Doing this to Ford is another way to anger her.
