A Darkwing Wedding
Chapter 1:
9 years in the future…
Darkwing and Launch Pad are finishing their routes before heading home. It was Gosalyn's day off. "Just one more stop and it's home sweet home. I can see the TV now." Drake said.
"Getting set for the big game huh?" Launch Pad asked.
"Oh yeah. I've been waiting for this all week!"
They drove into a traffic jam. "I just got to get home. I bet a lot of money on this game." Drake said.
"Don't worry D.W. I know a short cut." Launch Pad said.
Launch Pad told him the short cut and sure enough he landed into a mud pit.
"Great going L.P. now not only are we stuck here put we're going to miss the biggest game of the year." Darkwing said.
"What about the map on the computer?" L.P. asked.
He hit the computer and it flew off into the mud pit.
"Ooops." L.P. mussed.
Drake looked at him. "Ooops? Ooops? Thanks to you L.P. not only are we stuck in the mud and going to miss the game. But now we're lost! All thanks to you no brained ideas!" Drake exclaimed.
"It's not so bad D.W. I think Honker can fix it." He said.
"Honker that's right." D.W. said.
Launch Pad got out and started to push the rat catcher out of the mud.
The scene changed and you see D.W. and L.P. roll the rat catcher in.
"Honker I need you're help. Time is running out ." D.W. said.
He looked around and didn't see him.
"Where is the kid?" Drake asked.
Honker walked out of an office all grown up. He lost the glasses for contacts and has muscles on him.
"Oh hi you guys. I was just writing a poem for Gosalyn and I guess I got carried away." He mussed.
Drake rolled his eyes. "Honker this isn't a poetry class, It's a computer shop. Can you fix it? " He asked.
"Yeah just let me finish it. As long as you're there my love will never need repaired." He typed down.
"Oh boy." Drake said.
"Thanks." Honker said.
Honker finished up the poem and printed it out and folded it up and put it in his pocket.
"You're welcome. Now can you do something about this like fix it?"
"Sure thing Mr. Mallard. It will be easy as pie." Honker said.
He grabbed the device from Drake and walked to his table.
"Looks like all it needs is to be cleaned up and it will be good as new." Honker said.
"That's good." Drake said.
"So how are things going Honker?" Launch Pad asked.
"Good. I'm only working here until I can find a better job."
"Still living at home?"
"Yeah. But not for long."
"I like this kid." Drake said.
"Thanks Mr. Mallard." Honker said.
The scene changed to the Mallard house.
"Well see you later Drake." Launch Pad said.
Drake ran into the house and turned the TV on.
"Finally! St. Carnard! You can't lose!" He exclaimed.
The announcer came on. "It's a sad day today in St. Carnard. As they lost to Duck Burgh." He said.
Drake's jaw dropped to the ground when he heard that.
"What? Did he say they lost?" He asked.
Launch Pad came walking in. "Yup. Oh well, you win some you lose some." Launch Pad said.
Drake shook his head. "Oh no! They can't lose! I lost a big some on the game. The nest egg that Morgana and I have been saving up for since we got married nine years ago."
"Whoa! Morgana is going to get ticked off again when she finds this out."
"I know. I know. I just got to get the money back before Morgana finds out." Drake said.
"That's no yoke Drake." Launch Pad mussed.
Drake sat down on the couch and covered up his head.
"Why did I ever take that short cut?" He whined.
He then looked at L.P.
"You! This is all you're fault!" He exclaimed.
Launch Pad looked at him confused.
"My fault? How is they game my fault? I didn't bet the nest egg on a stupid game."
"If we had been on time. I could have saved and helped them. Thanks to you're scewery directions. They lost!" Drake exclaimed.
"But D.W."
"No buts. I want you out!"
"All right have it you're way D.W. I'm out of here." Launch Pad said as he stormed out of the house and slammed the door behind him.
"There's only one thing that can settle my stomach. Dinner." He said.
He walked into the kitchen and saw it empty.
"Morgana?" He asked.
Out in the garage
Morgana and Launch Pad's wife Diana are cleaning the garage.
Drake walked into the garage,
"Morgana?" He asked.
Morgana turned around and smiled.
"Oh hi Drake. Sorry but Diana and I.." She trailed on.
"Where's my dinner? And no McQuack is welcomed in this house." Drake asked.
Diana sighed. "Oh let me guess you and my L.P. got in another fight. I better pick up my twins before they drive the sitter nuts. They found out that if you jump off the edge of the table they can fly for about 2 seconds."
"Okay Bye Diana." Morgana said.
Diana walked out of the garage and Morgana sighed.
"Don't worry Drake darling. I'll have you're dinner ready as soon as I get this junk out for the truck." Morgana said.
"We don't have a truck."
"Not yet. But Diana and I have been saving up for it for our new business."
"New business? What new business?" Drake asked.
Morgana rolled her eyes and walked over to a chest filled with Gosalyn's old toys and junk.
"Bone appetite. Our little catering business that we thinking about running."
Drake's eyes widen when he heard that.
"What! I thought that you gave that dumb ideas the last time I said no. Listen Morgana I am the bread maker in this family. And I don't want my wife working!" Drake exclaimed.
"Oh come on Drake. I worked before we got married and we could use the extra money around. With Gosalyn all grown up and moved out. I have nothing else to do around here."
"But what about me?" Drake asked.
"I stand corrected."
"Look Morgana there's plenty of stuff for you to do around here. Like clean my clothes and fix my dinner.."
"Drake stop living in the Stone Age. I am not just a house wife you know. I have a career outside of being Drake Mallards wife!" She exclaimed.
"Oh yeah? And how am I supposed to pay for this bone head idea of you're?" Drake asked.
"It's all taken care of Drake, I'm going to take out a loan using the nest egg as a colloidal." She said.
Drake gulped. "The nest egg? I uh.. mean No! And that's final! I'm not changing my mind" He exclaimed.
"Oh Drake Mallard the only way you're have a change of mind. Is if you had a brain transplant. Come to think of that it's not a bad idea." She said.
She snapped her fingers and a bunch of magic books showed up.
Drake mocked her. "Ha ha very funny Morg." He said.
"But then again where will I find a brain that small." She pointed.
Drake mocked her again. "Don't think I can't see that Drake." Morgana said.
She then came across Gosalyn's first magic book.
"Aww Drake look Gosalyn's first magic book. Do you remember when she first got it?" She asked.
Drake chuckled. "Yeah how could I forget? The neighbors thought this was a haunted house all year." He said.
"Oh I know that I didn't give birth to her or anything. But she's always be our little girl." Morgana said.
"Little girl? Ha! Now who's living in the Stone Age. Remember when she moved out into her own apartment. I was cool but you merely lost you're mind."
Morgana looked up at him.
"Oh really? I remember quit different. You did everything in you're power to stop her from moving. Like nailing the doors to shut." Morgana said.
"I was just fixing the hinged that's all. You got to more like me and cut the apron strings."
Morgana sighed. "I wonder how our daughter is doing?" She asked.
The scene chanced to an office. Gosalyn is now 23 years old she has shoulder length red hair, wearing a purple t-shirt and jeans and skates.
"Mallard!" Her boss exclaimed.
"Uh oh boss alert." Gosalyn said.
She skated to a table and grabbed some papers and a cup of coffee.
She's a secretary at an adverting company.
She skated past a couple of people.
"Head's up. Coming though." She said.
She jumped over those people, she skated below somebody else.
"Excuse me." She said.
She zoomed past somebody else. "Make room!" She exclaimed.
She finally got past everybody and paused for a second. "Ha! And my dad said that my hockey practice was for nothing." She mussed. She then remembered about her boss. "Oh crap!" She exclaimed she took off running again.
Her boss Mr. Goose walked out of his office.
"Mallard!" He exclaimed.
Gosalyn skated to him. "Right here Mr. Goose." She said.
"Where's my.." He trailed on.
"Coffee? Right here."
"Did you remember?"
"You like it black."
"What about the.."
"The new car account. Right here. But you know if you ask me It should say something killer like. These are killer wheels. That you can't take for granted. Cool huh?" She asked.
Mr. Goose closed the account and looked at her.
"Ms. Mallard need I remind you that you are just theassiasnt here. Now I want you to make 20 copies of this ASAP."
"Yes sir." Gosalyn said.
She took off on her skates.
Mr. Goose looked at the wheels. "Hmm.. These are killer wheels that you can't take for granted. Not bad. Glad I thought about it." Mr. Goose said.
Gosalyn is now standing by the copy machine looking ticked off.
"Oh, that old fossil. He should do his own copies. I'm going to be late for my date with Honker. The one night that dad let me have off from duty and he's making me stay late." Gosalyn mumbled to herself.
Just then 2 of her co workers walked in.
"Did you head about Chirsta down in accounting? That bum she was dating dumped her." One said.
"No!" The one said.
"Yes, I tell you all men are caveman. Isn't that right Gosalyn?"
"Ooh not my Honker He's kind, gentle and understanding."
"Then one day he hands you a dear Gosalyn note and wham dump city. Believe me it happened to me."
Gosalyn chuckled and picked up the papers.
"Ah, I'd love to stay and stay here and gossip girls. But I really got to run." She said.
She started to back wards and didn't see Honker bend her.
"Ahh!" They both exclaimed.
They turned and saw each other.
"I'm early." Honker said.
"No I'm late." Gosalyn said.
"It's my fault." They both said.
"Oh Honker." Gosalyn said as they kissed and walked away.
"Awww, don't they make a cute couple?" The one girl asked.
"Trust me it will never last."
Gosalyn and Honker are now sitting at a jazz club.
"So Goose said 'Need I remind you that you are merely an assisted here. Can you believe that? I mean that I maybe just be a lonely assistant. But I still have ideas."
"You have great ideas Gos. Like the one for the tooth paste commercial. It makes you teeth sparkling clean." Honker said.
Gosalyn chuckled. "Thanks Honk." She said.
Honker placed his wing on hers.
"You know I love you right?" He asked.
"I hope you do." She replied.
"Well lately I've been thinking that there's got to be more." He said.
Gosalyn looked shocked at that. "More? Why is there a problem?" She asked.
Honker shook his head. "No everything is great. See, what we have here just isn't enough for me."
"Oh, I think I'm begging to understand." She said dissaponted.
"Well I wasn't sure how to say this to you. So I wrote you this." He said pulling the paper out of his pocket and handed it to her.
Gosalyn cleared her throat. "Ahem, Dear Gosalyn…." She then looked up at him with hurt and anger in her eyes.
"I don't need to read the rest. I know what it says." She cried.
Honker was shocked. "You do?"
"A DUH! And you have a lot of nerveending it this way." She said.
"What are you talking about Gos?" He asked.
Gosalyn stood up and looked at him in his eyes.
"Honker Muddle foot! If you're going to dump me. You could have at least had the dignity to do it to my face! JERK!" She exclaimed as she tossed water in his face.
"Dump you? I never said…" He trailed on.
"She was right! You men are all cavemen!" She cried.
She goes running out of the restaurant crying.
"Gosalyn wait!" He exclaimed.
He went running after her she was about to get on the bus when he grabbed her hand.
"Gosalyn stop!" He exclaimed.
"Don't bother Mr. Muddle foot. I can see myself home." Gosalyn said.
"No you don't!" Honker exclaimed.
"Honker, you're making a scene let it go!" She exclaimed.
"I don't care. I'm going to finish my poem to you." He said.
'Dear Gosalyn,
The road of live is filled with holes and costly tolls. With you by my side my love will never need repaired. So I plead on bended knee. My dearest Gosalyn will you marry me?" He asked on bended knee with a ring box.
Gosalyn gasped at that and covered her beak.
"Marry you? But Honker I thought… I mean…" She trailed on.
"Come on lady just say yes. I have places to go." The bus driver said.
"Oh, you bet I will." She said.
The two kissed each other.
"Wild horses couldn't keep me." She said.
Back with Drake and the muddle foots.
Gosalyn and Honker walk in.
"Guess what everyone? Honker and I have great news! Honker and I.." Gosalyn trailed on.
"For the last time! There's no way I'm going to spend an evening with them!" Drake exclaimed.
"Drake stop being so thick headed." Morgana said.
Gosalyn and Honker walked up to them.
"Excuse me but Gosalyn and I.." Honker trailed on.
"Forget it! I'll be dead in the head to go see the film strips!" Drake exclaimed.
"Hello! I said… HONKER AND I ARE GETTING MARRIED." Gosalyn exclaimed as she showed them the ring.
"That's right Honker and I are getting m..a..rr..i..e..d." Drake said.
Morgana ran to them. "Oh Gosalyn that's wonderful news." She said.
Drake was rocking back to forth.
"Married? Married?" Drake asked.
Herb walked up to Drake. "Put it their Drakearoo." He said.
"My little Gosy is getting married?" Drake asked.
He then fainted on the floor.
