Good friends to the Very End (a fan fic story about Hamton being there for Plucky right after the tragic passing of his 1st and original voice actor, Joe Alaskey (1952-2016))
AT THE MEMORIAL HOUSE
It had been 5 months ever since Plucky's 1st and original voice actor, Joe Alaskey, passed away from cancer complications at the age of 63 on Wednesday, February 3, 2016.
Acme Looniversity had a very special memorial service for him and the other deceased Tiny Toon Adventures workers, including Don Messick (1926-1997), Phil Hartman (1948-1998), Vincent Price (1911-1993), Henny Youngman (1906-1998), Sorrell Brooke (1930-1994), Pat Buttram (1915-1994), Chuck Menville (1940-1992), Fran Ryan (1916-2000), Richard Stone (1953-2001), Maurice Noble (1911-2011), Tony Pope (1947-2004), Hamilton Camp (1934-2005), Greg Burson (1949-2008), Danny Ganns (1956-2009), Ben Hurst (1951-2010), Earl Kress (1951-2011), Joan Gerber (1935-2011), Kenneth Mars (1935-2011), Jonatan Winters (1925-2013), Casey Kasem (1932-2014) and Stan Freberg (1926-2015).
It was raining and the clouds gloomed over the not so cheerful guests and Plucky (now voiced by Jason Marsden, sounding like a mix between Daffy Duck from the Looney Tunes franchise and Danger Duck from Loonatics Unleashed), depressed, ran away from the not so cheerful crowd, without his parents and good friends knowing what was going on, but Hamton noticed it and he rushed after him.
Plucky stopped by a maple tree far away from the memorial service over the hill top and he was silently sobbing his heart out.
Hamton came right towards him and said to him, "It's alright, Plucky, let all of it out."
Hamton had been best friends for life with Plucky ever since they were little tykes.
When the news came to television, Mary Melody said to them, "Most people don't survive all sorts of cancer, Plucky Duck's 1st and original voice actor, Joe Alaskey was on the 2016 deaths list.
Plucky stopped sobbing silently for 1 minute and embraced Hamton.
Hamton played Let It Be to him on his blue harmonica.
Plucky smiled and looked at Hamton and said to him, "Thanks a bunch, Hamton."
"For what, Plucky?" Hamton asked him.
"For giving me hope, all of us, you were there for everybody." he said to him heartily.
Later Winnie, Wade (now voiced by Jim Cummings in the reboot, All-New Tiny Toon Adventures), Ralph (now voiced by Jeff Bergman, who also voices Bugs and Daffy in All-New Tiny Toon Adventures) and Maria ran over the hilltop and saw Plucky and Hamton. They all smiled at them too.
"What a super good friendship." said Wade.
The others agreed with him and they later saw them and walked right up to them.
Back inside, the music was playing to lighten up the spirits of the depressed guests.
Hamton decided to get his band up there to play a super good song to end the wake.
"Hi, everybody, my name's Hamton Pig, and this is our band called The Tiny Toons, and this afternoon, we like to dedicate this song to Joe's memories." Hamton looked at Plucky and winked at him. "The song is the Beatles classic hit: Let It Be."
Hamton: When I find myself in times of trouble
Mother Mary comes to me
speaking words of wisdom, let it be
Buster: and in my hour of darkness
she is standing right in front of me
speaking words of wisdom, let it be
Hamton, Buster and Fowlmouth: let it be, let it be,
let it be, let it be
Fowlmouth: Whisper words of wisdom, let it be
Hamton: and when the broken hearted people
living in the world agree
there will be an answer, let it be
Fowlmouth: for though they may be parted
there is still a chance that they will see
there will be an answer, let it be
Hamton, Buster and Fowlmouth: let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
yeah
Buster: there will be an answer, let it be
Hamton: let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
whisper words of wisdom
let it be
Fowlmouth: let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah, let it be
whisper words of wisdom
let it be
Buster: and when the night is cloudy
there is still a light that shines on me
shine on until tomorrow, let it be
Hamton: I wake up to the sound of music
Mother Mary comes to me
speaking words of wisdom, let it be
Yeah
Buster, Hamton and Fowlmouth: let it be, let it be,
let it be, yeah, let it be
Fowlmouth: there will be an answer, let it be
Buster: let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah, let it be
whisper words of wisdom, let it be
Right after the song was over, everybody applauded and Plucky ran right up to his best friend for life and said to him, "Once again, thanks, Hamton." Hamton smiled back at him.
A FEW DAYS LATER
Plucky got over Joe's passing, but he never forgot about him and he really loved having Jason be his new voice actor for the Tiny Toon Adventures reboot titled All-New Tiny Toon Adventures.
Hamton liked having Plucky as his best friend for life, and 1 afternoon at Plucky's birthday party, Hamton gave him a gift called the Immature Radioactive Samurai Slugs video game, but anyways, good friends to the very end.
