Back from Japan and Hell

I am addicted to Dandadan, I've read the manga twice now... Enjoy.

It was the end of summer break, and on 1216 Franklin Avenue, Royal Woods, Michigan. The Loud family were getting ready to welcome home two Louds who left the country to Japan for the summer. Thanks to the McBrides, Lincoln and Lucy Loud were able to go Japan for the summer, Lincoln because he wanted to see Japan's anime and gaming culture, Lucy because she wanted to see the historical culture of yokai and oni.

The house was abuzz with excitement. Sisters Lori, Leni, Luna, Luan, Lynn Jr., Lola, Lana, Lisa, Lily, Luna, was by the door, nailing up signs that read 'Welcome Back!' and 'We missed you!' Lynn Loud Sr. had prepared a big meal of food for their return. Rita Loud was repeatedly checking the time, nervous about if her two children were able to get back home safely.

Lynn Sr.: Sweetie calm down, they'll be fine.

Rita: What if they get lost? What if they forgot their luggage? What if-

Lynn Sr. put a hand on his wife's shoulders.

Lynn Sr.: Rita, they'll be fine.

Suddenly, the doorbell rang, Lynn Sr. quickly jogged over and opened it, expecting to see a happy and smiling pair. Instead he saw Lincoln, clothes ragged and dirty with heavy eye bags, and Lucy, hair frizzled and groaning slightly. They had bags that seemed filled with souvenirs but they looked like they've been through hell in a hand basket.

Also, Lincoln had on glasses, thin frame circular glasses. Ace Comics, the producers of Ace Savvy, had been using a special ink in their comics, which turned out to also have a residue that damages the pupils and inturn damages the person's vision. The Louds retrieved about 10 million dollars after suing Ace Comics.

Lynn Sr.: Ooo, rough flight, kids?

Lucy makes a small grunt in response, Lincoln doesn't even speak up. Lincoln and Lucy dropped their bags off at the door before trudging their way upstairs. Leaving their family confused as to what happened during their trip.

Luna: Hey guys, what happened? Did you have a bad trip?

Neither respond as they trudge their way into their rooms and shut the doors with a slam.

Lori: Jeez. What happened in Japan to make them get like that?

Leni: Maybe they had too much fun and they're just really tired.

Luna: Looking like that? They look like they were mugged by a demon and haven't slept since.

Luna's comment brought a brief silence to the room as the siblings exchanged puzzled glances. Despite their initial shock, the curiosity of the Loud siblings couldn't be contained. One by one, they began to whisper among themselves, sharing theories of what could have possibly occurred during Lincoln and Lucy's summer in Japan.

In Lincoln's room, the Loud Boy was face down in his bed, his hair was ragged and messy, as he starts to relax his body, suddenly his hair stats to move on its own and a noticeable dark jaw mask with a row of multiple teeth starts to form over his face. Lincoln jolts up and slaps his face, his hair going flat and the mask vanishing as quickly as it appeared. The Loud boy flopped back onto his bed, this time not letting his body relax.

Lincoln: Uugh.....

In Lynn's And Lucy's room, Lucy was laying flat on her bed, she looked to her books and reached out to grab one, suddenly a invisible force grabbed the book and crushed it hard enough to literally squeeze the ink from the pages. The gothic Loud pulled her hands back as the invisible force dropped the book.

Lucy: Sigh...

Lucy hid the destroyed book under her trash before she flopped back into her bed. That's when Lynn strode into the room, seeing her sister on her bed with an even more depressed look than she normally had.

Lynn: Dad says dinners in a few minutes, Lucy. You okay? You look... well, you look like you've seen a ghost... And an alien... And death himself.

Lucy didn't respond with words, just a grunt that could be interpreted as a no. She rolled over, facing the wall and pulled her blankets over her head. Lynn looked at her with concern before deciding to let her be for now. The rest of the siblings continued their speculation downstairs, unaware of the eerie occurrences happening in their brother and sister's rooms.

Lynn Sr.: Those two seem like they had a long day, so let's leave them along for now. Dinner is hot and ready, kids! Supreme Homemade Pizza!

Lynn Jr. was aggressively bouncing a ball as she exited her room, Lucy trudging behind her with a growling stomach. Lori stepped out of her room too, and immediately

Lori: Lynn, don't throw the ball around that hard, it's gonna go flying and either break something or hit someone.

As if on cue, Lynn threw the ball with extra force, and instead of bouncing back to her, it bounced around the 2nd floor hallway, before hitting Lincoln in the groin, who had just came out of his room amidst the chaos. However, he only seemed to slouch slightly more then he already was.

Lynn: (catches her ball) Oooooo! Sorry Linc-

Luna quickly smacked Lynn upside the head as Lincoln stood there slouched over not making a noise.

Luna: And that's why! (To Lincoln) You good, bro?

Lincoln then stood up straight and popped his back, not groaning or wheezing like a normal person would, in fact he seemed perfectly fine as he yawned.

Lincoln: Sorry, I dozed off for a second, what?

Lana: Lincoln, you just took a ball to the groin. Aren't you in pain?

Lincoln slowly began to realize what happened when he dozed, he slowly began to panic, trying to form words when Lucy spoke up first.

Lucy: He's obviously wearing a cup.

The thought of Lincoln not being in pain from a ball hitting his crotch settled by the thought of him just wearing a cup, the sisters dropped it. Unaware that Lincoln wasn't actually wearing a cup.

Lincoln: Nice save Lucy.

Lucy: Anytime brother. Let's just remember, no one must find out the truth...

Lincoln nods as they go downstairs, Lincoln stops as Lucy goes downstairs. The Loud boy then looks to the fourth wall and talks to me the writer.

Lincoln: (to the writer) Can you just tell them what's going on you ADHD jackass.

Fine.

When Lincoln takes his first step however, he slips and falls down the stairs, hitting every step on his way down, and even the railing and wall. Hitting the first floor hard.

Lincoln: (to the writer) Petty... Bastard...

Lynn Sr.: Lincoln! Language!

*Flashback: 2 Weeks Ago*

Lincoln and Lucy were standing at a closed off passageway.

Lincoln: Are you sure you want to go into this tunnel?

Lucy: Rumor has it a ghost called Turbo Granny is here. That or its Hyper Geezer.

Lincoln: I've only heard of one of those.

Lucy: That's because you don't read the right books. Now come on, we're here to see something amazing!

Lincoln: (follows Lucy) Rare to see you excited about something.

They ventured into the dimly lit tunnel, the sound of their footsteps echoing off the walls. As they ventured deeper, Lucy's excitement grew palpable while Lincoln's skepticism remained. After walking half way through the tunnel, Lincoln decided to drum up some conversation.

Lincoln: So what's this Turbo Granny anyway?

Lucy: Oh, she's a yokai that was previously known as the 100 km/hr Hag. She's said to race anyone who runs from her, and if you lose, you'll be cursed. Her methods for cursing someone is normally along the lines of stealing their genitals, Boys and men especially.

Lincoln: (stops) Wait, am I being used as bait again!?

Lucy: (stops and turns to Lincoln) No... Maybe... (lowers head) Yes...

Lincoln: (sighs) Leaving now.

Lincoln turns around and goes to walk away, when his flashlight shines on footprints of blood on the ground of the tunnel. The footprints of blood looked to be walking away from him. Lincoln shined the light until he illuminated a very elderly woman with reddish brown wrinkled skin, long thick white shaggy hair, wide eyes with a yellow sclera and seemed stuck looking to the sides.

Turbo Granny: I'll let you suckle my teats...

Lincoln's grip slipped on his flashlight, the lights of the tunnel that were off when they entered turned on, glowing bright red.

Turbo Granny: If you let me gobble your schlong...

As soon as Lincoln's flashlight hit the ground, he bolted from the old woman yokai, his heart pounding in his chest. Lucy, caught off-guard by her brother's sudden sprint, stumbled and fell before she looked backward.

Lucy: LINCOLN!!! DON'T GET!!! YOU CAN OUT RUN HER!!! SHE PUT A CURSE ON YOU WHEN SHE CATCHES YOU!!!

Lucy's voice echoed down the tunnel before Turbo Granny silently began running after Lincoln. Lincoln kept running while Turbo Granny's speed remained the same, no matter how fast or slow he went. His heart was racing and sweat was pouring down his face, his legs felt like jelly. The Yokai began running on the tunnel walls and ceiling as it caught up to Lincoln, running backwards in front of him.

Turbo Granny: (cackles) You can't outrun me, youngling!

Lincoln's screams echoed down the tunnel as Lucy scrambled to her feet. She started to walk, but suddenly, the lights turned from red to bright blue, confused as to the sudden change. Lucy then found herself at the tunnel entrance. There was a group of semi-bald men with large eyebrows, all wearing a sweatshirt and baggy sweatpants with a zipper in the center of it. They all had the face of This Man from the "Ever Dream This Man?" website.

This Man 1: This girl bears a strong mind? Yes.

This Man 2: Further tests must be done? Yes.

This Man 3: This girl shall come with us? Yes.

Lucy turned down the tunnel, hoping she could find her brother alright, suddenly, her body felt like it weighed ten times as much as she hit the ground, the This Man lookalikes stood around her. Then one pulled out a headset that was not of the planet Earth. The tech was so advanced.

The This Man lookalikes attach the headset to Lucy's head, the device gives her the worst migraine she's ever had. Her nose bleeds as she could feel every part of her brain being studied, it felt as if they were poking every neuron and synapse.

This Man 5: The girl has strong brainwaves? Yes.

This Man 4: We shall extract the brain? Yes.

???: RAAAAHHHH!!!

Just then a horrible and eerie roar echoed from the tunnel. The This Man lookalikes looked down the hall as something sounded like it was running from the tunnel. The sounds of footsteps sprinting through the tunnel. Suddenly, a tall lanky male with features like Turbo Granny was sprinting down the tunnel.

This Man 1: It is the white haired one? Yes.

This Man 4: We should capture him to? Yes.

Two of the This Mans hold their hands out but suddenly, the lanky man vanishes, before reappearing slamming his head into two of the This Man lookalikes. Sending both flying as he twists his body in unnatural almost supernatrual ways.

???: GET THE HELL OFF MY SISTER!!!

The other three This Man lookalikes hold out there hands and the man deftly dodges an invisible attack. Before running around faster then the three This Man could keep up with.

This Man 3: We put up The Awesome Zone? Yes.

This Man 1: The Awesome Zone? Yes.

Then all five of the This Mans stood back up unnaturally and inhumanly. Suddenly, the lanky man was gone. The This Man lookalikes looked around confused, until they saw the lanky man jumping down from the ceiling. The This Man lookalikes then take a Dynamic pose, suddenly the lanky man slammed against the ground as the ground around him caved in.

Lucy meanwhile was still going through intense pain in her brain as the device was continuing much longer than it should've been. Her brain felt like it was going to fire out of her ears and nose like a geyser. She saw as the lanky man began to revert back to her brother, Lincoln.

This Man 5: This boy is also strong? Yes.

This Man 3: We harvest his organs? Yes.

Lucy's mind then burst with energy as the headgear device sparked inside her brain. Suddenly, everything went black.

???

Lucy's eyes snapped open to a blank white sky, then Turbo Granny leaned into her view.

Turbo Granny: Well, now. Looks like I have some company.

Lucy: Turbo... Granny...?

Lucy tried to stand, but her body wouldn't move. She looked around, but the world was a blank white sky over a pitch black ground.

Lucy: Where... Is...

Turbo Granny: This is the back of the boy's subconscious, where memories fade and are lost. I ended up back here after trying to possess that boy after I cursed him.

Lucy: How... Am... I...

Turbo Granny: How are you here? You awoken to psychic powers through that headpiece that's on your body, it's not on you now cause you're in the mindscape. Your soul will probably be trapped here too.

Lucy: What...?

Turbo Granny: Don't you recall? Before your mind got sucked in here, you were being experimented on by aliens. You really didn't think humans like those existed? You and your brother will most likely die as those Aliens cut you open and harvest your organs.

Lucy's eyes widened as she kept trying to move.

Lucy: Maybe if I can... use these powers...

Turbo Granny: A futile effort. You have no spirit.

Lucy: What?

Turbo Granny leaned down and put a finger to Lucy's forehead, Lucy felt all her memories from child birth to now come flooding back to the front of her mind.

Turbo Granny: As I thought, you bare no spiritual energy.

Lucy: Spirit... Energy...?

Turbo Granny: You honestly think ghosts ignore your rituals and 'blood sacrifices'? Ghosts were jumping at each ritual you performed. Every demon you're blood sacrifice tried to summon was summoned. However, they were never interested in you. They wanted your brother.

Lucy: W-why...?

Turbo Granny didn't speak, but she pointed her thumb at something, something that revealed the "black ground" they were on was actually a being, standing possibly 400 meters tall, pitch black from head to toe, aside from two orb like eyes that glowed bright white.

Lucy and Turbo Granny were like grains of sand on the shoulder of this giant entity.

Lucy: What is...?

Turbo Granny: Spirits are born and empowered by the emotions of humans, especially the powerful emotions of fear, yearning or hate. This thing, is every drop of hate, rage, and despair your brother has ever felt. Well, 40% percent of it is anyway.

Turbo Granny raised her hand and slashed the giant entity, and instead of blood, out came hundreds of thousands of demonic and inhuman screams before it closed back up. The giant didn't seem to even notice.

Turbo Granny: You're brother's repressed hate and rage gobbled up those demons. Ate them up and absorb their energy. Once this boy dies, Kanjiki will become very powerful Yokai.

Lucy: Kanjiki...?

Turbo Granny: It means God and Devour, fitting for a living essence like this one. I bet once it gets free, it'll take all the gods of Japan just to bind it to one location! Hahaha! I wonder how many gods will die trying to fight it! It'll be a massacre!

Lucy: How are...

Turbo Granny: How am I not falling into this creature? Firstly, I'm not as weak as these fifth rate ghosts and Yokai able to be summoned by a weakling like you. Second.

Turbo Granny then pulled a golden cylindrical rod from her hair. It was about 9 inches long and over an inch and a half in width.

Turbo Granny: With this, it's the boy's schlong, I've rapped it in spirit energy so that's why its not banana shaped. I took it after I cursed him. It won't even look at me weird so long as I've got something that belongs to the boy's physical body. I lost the balls though, no clue where they went.

Turbo Granny put Lincoln's pencil back in her hair and walked away.

Turbo Granny: The same can be said for you, you have similarities in blood so it won't touch you. Until the boy dies that is.

Lucy then looked up to the blank white of Lincoln's mindscape. She was going to die if she didn't do something. But what could she do?! She has psychic powers now, but what good are they to someone with no spirit energy? Turbo Granny said not even weak spirits bother with her because she lacks spirit energy, so her newly gained power was useless.

Lucy: (thinking) I'm gonna die... Lincoln's going to die... We're all going to die... And it's all my fault!

Lucy's eyes start to water as her bangs fall from her face, she then realizes something.

Lucy: (thinking) Wiat... If I don't have any spirit energy, but Lincoln has enough energy to make a creature that can threaten demons... Maybe, I can...

Lucy tried to move her arms, but it felt like there were made of lead. Even twitching her fingers was a struggle. Lucy manages to get her fingernails down, but she couldn't claw her way into the skin. It was too thick.

Turbo Granny: A last ditch effort I see.

Lucy looked to see that Turbo Granny came back, although there wasn't much where she could go, and was watching her.

Lucy: I'm... Trying...

Turbo Granny: To Absorb your brother's spiritual energy, I can tell. But you're too weak to even move properly in this place, much less dig into your brother's inner demons. However...

Turbo Granny then suddenly sliced into Kanjiki's skin, with Kanjiki not reacting in the slightest.

Turbo Granny: I don't like seeing young girls die, so I'll help this once.

Then Turbo Granny grabbed Lucy's arm, despite Lucy being unable to move and feeling like she weighed 60 tons, Turbo Granny moved her like she weighed nothing.

Turbo Granny: Fair warning, along with your brother's spiritual energy, you'll see every evil thought and feeling he's unconsciously repressed into Kanjiki's very being. Every thought that your brother doesn't even know he had. Still want to try?

Lucy nodded before Turbo Granny released her arm and let it fall into the tiny hole of Kanjiki's colossal body. Lucy's reaction was immediate, pain evident on her face as she felt rage, shame, anguish, despair, animosity, and bloodlust. A violet-hued black began to crawl up her arm and to her face as she gritted her teeth before her subconscious returned to the real world.

To Be Continue...

I'll explain how the powers of the two Louds work.
