A Loud Legend Chapter 12

The troops continued their journey, and eventually made it to a snowy area in Ontario. A cannonball accidentally burst out of Lincoln's wagon. Lincoln looked angrily at Craig, who was bug-eyed with shock, and the serpent pointed his tail at Flecko.

"What just happened, Collin?" Demanded Ronnie Anne. "You just gave away our position! Now we're..." Suddenly, Ronnie Anne got hit in the shoulder with an arrow. The Coons started shooting more arrows!
"Get out of range!" She commanded, and the troops ran from the shower of arrows and pine cones. However, one of the pine cones was on fire, and it hit the wagon Lynn was pulling.
"Save the cannons!" Said Ronnie Anne, and the soldiers started grabbing the cannons and cannonballs out of the burning wagon. However, Craig and Flecko were still trapped inside. Lincoln used Grandpa Albert's sword to cut down Lynn's harnesses, right before the wagon exploded. Craig and Flecko burst out of the explosion.
"Sure, save the llama." Said an angry Craig. Lincoln grabbed the snake-like creature and continued running away from the pinecones and arrows.
The troops eventually made it behind some large rocks, and started firing cannonballs at the Coons. After all the cannonballs were shot out, only one weapon remained: a large grey missile that had the words 'Sister Twister' on it. When the smoke subsided, Oonski appeared riding on a wolf, with his anhinga on his shoulder. The rest of the Coons started appearing on strange animals like moose with fangs, turtle-duck hybrids, and a white domestic dog that became rabid.
"Prepare to fight." Ronnie Anne said to her troops. "If we die, we die with honor." Everyone started taking out their swords, and the Coons started charging.
"Harold." Said Ronnie Anne. "Aim the Sister Twister at Oonski." While Harold was aiming the missile, Lincoln saw a reflection in his sword, and in the reflection was a mountain. If Lincoln aimed the Sister Twister at the mountain, he could cause an avalanche! Lincoln put his sword away, grabbed the missile from Harold, and ran directly to the Coon army. Lincoln pressed a button on the missile, and it started glowing in ten different colors: Cyan, sea-foam green, purple, yellow, red, black, pink, blue, green, and lavender. The lights looked pretty to Craig, and he wrapped himself around the missile. There was also a digital clock counting backwards from 15. A monocle with a crosshair appeared on top of the missile, helping Lincoln aim it at the mountain.
"You might want to light that right about now." Said Craig.
"It's automatic." Said Lincoln. "Though I wonder who created this weapon." The Sister Twister soon launched, but it missed Oonski.
"You missed!" Shouted Craig, still tied to the missile. "How could you miss? He was three feet in front of you!" The Sister Twister soon hit contact with the mountain, and it created a powerful explosion. The explosion caused a great Avalanche to start, but it didn't come without a price. Once Oonski saw the Avalanche, he hit Lincoln with his mace. Lincoln carried Ronnie Anne and started running away with her, running away from the Avalanche. Lynn ran to Lincoln's aid and put the boy on her back. Lincoln was about to pick up Ronnie Anne, but she drowned in the snow. Sid, Heffer, and Harold, along with the other soldiers, were hiding behind a large rock, so they wouldn't get caught in the Avalanche.
Meanwhile, Craig was on a shield, trying to find Lincoln in the open snow.
"Lincoln!" He shouted, sliding through the snow. "Lincoln!" Then he saw a bit of white hair. Craig pulled it up, it wasn't Lincoln, but a seal-like creature with four penguin-like flippers.
"Nope." Said Craig. "Don't know my own strength." He continued sledding and saw a pair of hair-like thingies. He plucked it and it was Flecko.
"You are one lucky bug." Said Craig.
Meanwhile, Lynn and Lincoln were struggling through the snow, trying to find Ronnie Anne. Suddenly, Lincoln noticed her.
"Ronnie Anne!" He said, turning his horse around and grabbing the unconscious Latino general.
Meanwhile, the gang of three were trying to spot Lincoln and Ronnie Anne. Heffer was holding Harold, and Harold was holding Sid.
"Do you see them?" Asked the steer.
"Yes!" Answered Sid. He fired an arrow at them, attached to a long rope. "Now I'll pull them to safe...ty." He grabbed the rope too late.
Meanwhile, Craig finally made it to Lincoln.
"Hey, Lincoln!" Said Craig. "I found a lucky fly!"
"We need help." Said Lincoln. As if it were luck, the arrow Sid fired landed by Lynn's side, and Lincoln grabbed it.
"Ooh, nice." Craig said to Flecko. "You're sitting next to me." Suddenly, both of them noticed a dead end, and they started to scream.
"We're gonna die!" Said Craig. "We're definitely gonna die. There's no way we can survive this!" Before the five would plummet to their doom, Lincoln fired the arrow into the sky, and it landed in Sid's hands. Suddenly, the arrow started dragging Sid, so Harold grabbed Sid, Clyde grabbed Harold, Stinky grabbed Clyde, and so on. Heffer then grabbed the whole team, and they all dragged up Lynn with her four passengers. Once the white-haired teen made it to land, with Ronnie Anne still unconscious, she woke up.
"Collin?" Said Ronnie Anne. "You're the craziest man I ever met. For that, I owe you my life. From now on, you have my trust."
"To Collin," Cheered Sid. "The bravest of us all!"
"You're king of the mountain!" Said Harold. Suddenly, Lincoln felt a pain on his side. This caught the attention of Ronnie Anne.
"Collin, what's wrong?" She asked. Suddenly, she saw Lincoln bleeding! "He's wounded! Get help immediately!" The last thing Lincoln saw before he passed out was Ronnie Anne's face.
Author's Notes: The idea for the name of the 'Sister Twister' came from the episode 'Heavy Meddle', while the color scheme came from The Loud House opening.

In the intro for the show, all the sisters come in different colors: Lori comes in cyan, a shade of blue, Leni comes in sea-foam green, Luna comes in purple, Luan comes in yellow, Lynn comes in red, Lucy comes in black, Lola comes in pink, Lana comes in blue, Lisa comes in green, and Lily comes in lavender, yet Lincoln stays the same. Anyway, I thought that the flashing colors on the 'Sister Twister' would demonstrate how powerful it is.
The 'Sister Twister' also drew inspiration from the rocket Buzz gets taped to in the first Toy Story.
The rabid dog is Doidle, Vicky's dog in The Fairly OddParents episode 'Dog's Day Afternoon'.

Along with Snaptrap, the Angry Beavers, and Rancid Rabbit, Doidle will return in Chapter 14.
The fanged moose in this chapter are the Saber-Tooth Moose Lion from Avatar: The Last Airbender.

The Turtle-Ducks are also from Avatar.

The wolf in this chapter is Scar Snout, the wolf from The Rugrats Movie. He's a bit of a mammalian equivalent to Sharptooth from The Land Before Time.

The creature Craig pulls out of the snow in this chapter is a Penguin-Otter, yet another creature from Avatar.

The idea for the flaming pinecones came from Fantastic Mr. Fox.
