Findimg a Voice by LoudFanWolf. This is my first attempt at the writing a fanfiction, so I ask you to please cut me some slack as this might not look good.

Luna Loud was feeling confident, she was talking to her girlfriend, Sam, about the the name for their band that, she had just come up with. "Dude, guess what?" Luna said, sitting in her beanbag chair with her cellphone pressed close to her ear. Besides feeling confident, Luna was also feeling very thankful, thankful that her sister, Luann,hadnt stuck glue to her phone as a prank "What, babe?" Asked Sam, the blonde woth the blue highlight was excited to hear the good news that her brunette girlfriend had to share. "I finally came up with a name for our new band!" "Awesome," Sam replied, "I hope its not that name that your sister-whats her name, Leni- gave us, is it?" "The Flowerpetals? Bleugh!" Luna faked a gag, as much as she loved her dimwitted sister, there was denying that on the rare occasions where she had an idea or a suggestion to express to her siblings, 9 times out of 10, it usually came out negatively in rhe lomg run, and band names were no exception, especially one that was way too girly. "How does this sound, love?" Luna started before speaking im a big, announcer voice " LIVE, FROM THE ROYAL WOODS MALL, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, GIVE IT UP FOR NOOOIIISEEE COMPLAAAIIINNNT!!!" Luna then began to bounce around her bedroom oh, all the while imitating a a crowd cheering, the phone still pressed against her ear. This went on for a few moments before Luna finally jump onto a bean bag chair before launching into a fit of giggles, with Sam laughing with her on the other side of the line. "How does that sound, bro?" Luna asked, after finally calming down from her play "Awesome," replied Sam, giggling a little bit more before sighing. "Well, now that that problem is out of the way, have you been able to find a frontman for Noise Complaint? I havent been able to find one vocally talented boy in this entire town." "Me neither dude," Luna replied with a frown in her voice. Sam thwn spoke up. "Hey, remind me again, why are we looking for a lead vocalist, I mean, you and I both know we both can sing, Ive got my bass, youve got your axe, and your bro Lincoln is pretty good on the drums. Why dont we just settle with that?" "Well," Luna started, "Lincoln is kinda why we are looking for a lead vocalist, specifically a male one, 2 girls, 1 guy, that just doeant seem right. I mean, I know Lincoln is kinda used to being outnumbered by girls," Luna chuckled before continuing "But I just feel 2 guys and 2 girls will feel more even you know?" Yeah, I get that, nice of you to be thinking of others tho Luna. Before the phone conversation could continue any further, Rita Loud, Lunas mother, begam yelling to her from downstairs. "LUNA, ITS TIME TO GO, HURRY UP!!!" Luna stood up. "Ohp, thats right, ive gotta go love, its open mic night at the cafe and my little sister Lucy is reading some poetry." "Oh, okay, see ya later. Hey, hopefully a talented guy shows up there." Luna chuckled, "heh, I dont know about that, my sisters might scare everyome out of thr cafe." Luna and Sam both giggled before the big, booming voice of Lori Loud interrupted their fun. "LUNA, GET YOUR BUTT DOWN HERE OR WE'RE LEAVING WITHOUT YOU!!!" "Ohp, now Ive really gotta go now, talk to ya later love." Okay, see ya babe." After hanging up, Luna sighed blisfully, feeling lucky to have a girl like Sam in her life. She then sprinted down the stairs, out the door, and into Vanzilla beforw either Rita or Lori could yell at her again.

At the cafe, the family was waiting for Lucys turn when the MC got up on the stage, "Before we get on to Poetry Night, weve got a singer here who wanted to perform, and even though this is Poetry Night, I have decided to let this one go first before we get on the main event." Lucy groaned, being annoyed by the fact thst she would have to wait before she could the world her beautiful artistic genius, the rest of the family, however, took it in stride, as much as they wanted to support Lucy, they werent necessarily ready to hear one of her dark, gloomy, deoressing poems just yet, so it was nice for them to have more time to prepare. "Ladies and gentlemen," the MC started, "give it up for Derek!" "Derek? Why does that name sound so familiar to me?" Derek then got up on stage, and Luna then realized why his name sounded so familiar. His name was Derek Gabriel, a 16 year old sophomore in Lunas government and history classes, and from what Luna saw from him, she thought Derek was big nerd. "Somebody that Lincoln would be great friends woth," Luna thought. Derek was 5 foot 9, chubby, and little pimpled faced. He also seemed to be kimd of a loner as well, never really hung out with anybody. With welcoming applause, Derek walked on stage, a small boombox and a cd in his hands. When he got on stage, Derek set the boombox down and placed the cd inside, before taking the mictophone from the MC and then waving to the people in the diner. The MC then pressed the play buttom the boombox and the song started. And as it turns out, it was a song that Luna knew, Wonderwall by Oasis.

''Today is gonna be the day that theyre gonna throw it back to you. By now, you shoulda somehow realized what you gotta do. I dont believe that anybody feels the way I do about you now.''

Luna was astounded by what she was hearing, she had never Derek to have such an amazing, well flowing voice. As the song went on, Lincoln Loud leaned over and whispered into Lunas ear. "Listen to this guy, Luna, hes great!" "I know bro!" Luna whisper-yelled back. "Hmmm, do you think hes good enough to be in the band?" Lincoln suggested. "Hmmm, maybe bro, we'll have to see if his voice is good for rockier songs though." Luna said "Lets talk to him afterwards and see what he thinks!" Luna said "sure," but she wasnt so sure, she wasnt sure if a loner like Derek would be willing to join a band.

Thankfully, Derek didnt immediately leave after singing, and both Luna and Lincoln webt up to talk to him afterwards.
