Chapter 3

Not So Mr. Clean

"My my, aren't you genius, Deuteronomy." Victor reckoned as he realized Dewey's talents on his office computer. Dewey's computer mouse was all over the layers of programs after programs.

"Well of course, it just a bug on your computer so adding with some security protection on your computer and voila! A fixed computer," Dewey announced feeling proud himself.

When Victor showed the two boys in his office, he mentioned that his computer had a virus and since Dewey was a specialist on computers worked up with his magic fingers and got to work to fixing it while Louie was checking out his trophies of his pastime.

"Awesome, you were in Lacrosse too!" Louie asked as he checks his team photo in a frame.

"Why yes, I was a professional back then that why I gotten so much money, you know."

"How come we never heard of you?"

"Because I changed my name didn't want the intense media attention and girls after me."

"Why that?" Dewey asked as he walked up to Louie.

"I prefer a quiet life and when I met your mother. It was like wow, I'm in love."

"Somebody taking lessons from Huey," Dewey recalled as Louie chuckled.

"Coming along, young gents, I'll show you the rest of the house." Victor said as he led them to his hobby room.

Both, Dewey and Louie dropped their jaws as their soon to be father-in-law's hobby room was filled with precious jewels and gems.

"It isn't possible!" Dewey recalled as he scanned the glittering room.

"Richer then our Uncle Scrooge himself...!" Louie replied.

"Of course, I deserve everything." Victor recalls that gotten Dewey some thinking of re-judging him.

Suddenly Victor put his hands on the boys' shoulders. "And it would be real pleasure that you boys would love the things of how I run things now."

"Why of course." Dewey shyly said as he removed his hand from him, he then grabbed his brother's wrist and pull him away from Victor.

"Oops, I almost forgot. If you don't mind please don't touch anything. I must go." Victor said as he walked away giving Dewey a clear thought about him.

"Don't you think he a bit self centered?" Dewey asked Louie.

"Well if mom likes him. I think we should too."

"But Louie, Victor just said we should follow whatever he says."

Louie just sighed. "Well if it makes mom happy so be it." He left.

"Fine whatever, don't listen to me!" Dewey exclaimed, he crossed his arms and stare around the shining jewels. "Funny he didn't mention he was a jewel collector." As Dewey went on thinking believing something wasn't right.

"Victor, I welcome you my oldest son, Huey." Bella announced respectfully.

"Hubert the one that ran away, it's a pleasure to meet you, my boy." Victor took out his hand making Huey a bit nervous.

"Yeah, it's a pleasure to meet you too?" He questioned as he shook Victor's hand that suddenly pulled away.

"Yes anyway, if everyone. Don't mind I need to check up some things."

"Why of course." Daisy nodded as Victor left the lobby. "What a gentlemen that some lucky find, Bella."

"Yes, he is. I just wish he wasn't so secretive at times."

Huey and Donald just frowned and has crossed arms. "He sounds like a slum to me." Huey whispered only for his Uncle to hear.

"Well we should get going." Donald mentioned as he couldn't take a second to stay in the house.

"But you just got here, please at least stay for the engagement party." Bella announced.

"Why, we'll be happy to stay!" Daisy said then she looked at Donald with a sneer. "Right, Donald?"

Her boyfriend gulped and quickly nodded.

"Oh boy," Huey recall as he slapped his forehead while his Uncle Donald continued to pout.

The night came and the engagement party was quite dull in the minds of the teenagers. In the empty dinning room next to the main event, Dewey sighed as he cleaned off his brother's face that was occupied with food crumbles.

"This is stupid! This party is worst then Uncle Scrooge meetings!" Dewey complained.

Huey just smiled. "Relax, Dew-man. All we have to do is spark up the party that all."

When Dewey was finished with Louie's face, he stepped aside. As Louie replace his cap. "Mom not gonna like this, you know."

"Well I don't like Victor Don Quack. He seems suspicious." Huey pointed out.

"No kidding, he good at every sports and yet don't share his fame?" Dewey recalled.

"And that Jewel room, you shown me." Huey said as he pace himself back and forth.

"You guys are overreacting. Anyway I'm leaving." Louie said as he walked out the room.

Dewey then shook his head. "This is not good, Louie not seeing this."

"That's alright we can deal this one on our own." Huey said. "Besides if he's in danger, we'll be the older brothers to the rescue."

"I hope so..." Dewey sighed as Huey took his brother's hand and drag him to explore the mansion.

Dewey sat on the Quack's office desk, checking anything interesting on his computer while Huey scan around the room.

"There's nothing, Hue. I guess Mr. Quack is clean."

"Not a chance, Dew-drop, guess what I found." Huey pulled out a dusty box from a file cabinet.

As he opened it, the box was filled with old newspapers. As they check them, Huey smiled.

"What do you know; Victor isn't so good in sports after all, apparently he cheated his games by using some sort of drugs that increased his strength, speed and agility." Huey pointed out as he checks out a picture of the young Victor getting busted.

"That's no surprise, Hue. Victor doesn't look like the type to work out." Dewey explained then something caught his eye.

"Oh my god, he is a thief!" Dewey shouted as he found another of a newspaper that had the bold letters of a Sapphire necklace being stolen from a museum. "That the same necklace, mom was wearing!"

"Yeah, and mom said that was a present from her fiancé." Huey replied.

In quick second after what Huey just said a hand slammed the desk that startles the two boys where both of them swiftly went and held on each other. The young teenagers gulped as they looked up to the invader. Victor Don Quack didn't seem so happy.

"Oh how did I know that my fiancé's kids would be so meddlesome?" He added sarcasm. "Say another word to anyone and you boys will get it." He warned, Huey just frown as he let go of Dewey.

"Oh yea, we're not afraid of you!" He fingered out at Victor's face. "Once our mom knows about this, she'll dump your sorry ass!"

"Then your little brother would get it."

Huey flinched; he removed his hand away from Victor. "What do you mean?"

"Don't you see Louie already sees me like a father, now you wouldn't hurt your little brother's feelings will you?"

"Not unless we tell him!" Dewey explained as he stood by with Huey.

"And when you do, there is your mother." Victor rubbed his fingers. "She could be blame for this too and get sent into prison."

Huey growled. "You wouldn't dare!"

Victor just smiled evilly. "Oh I will, besides she can't be the shining jewel forever and she does have the prized gem."

"So all those other ones were stolen too?" Dewey said.

"Of course, if I can't be famous, I'll be rich." Victor said then he stood up straight with a large grin came in. "If you do try, your little brother is going to military school, where you'll never see his face again."

Both of them in reply gritted their teeth. "You'll never get away with this!" Huey shouted then suddenly he grabbed Dewey's hand and pulled him along. They went out the door and Victor didn't even have to move an inch since he was aware the trust issues between the boys and their mother.

"Mom, he's a thief!" Dewey explained.

"Yeah and he's planning to send Louie to military school!" Huey said.

Bella couldn't believe this, it only been hours since they got here and already her boys were out of control in the empty dinning room. "Enough," She shouted. "Boys please, Victor is good man." And already the boys were in shock, was she listening to anything, they said? "Victor is jewel collector; he gets most of his jewels on the travels that he goes on."

"Yeah by stealing them," Dewey complained.

"How are you so sure?" Bella asked.

"We got proof, where the newspaper Dewey?" Huey looked at his brother who looked dumbfounded.

"I...didn't bring it..." Dewey sadly said.

"What?"

"I just forgot, ok?"

"Alright, I heard enough." Bella announced as she took over the situation. "Deuteronomy, if you really want you may go back to Duckburg as well."

Immediately Dewey was shocked as he shouted. "Mom," Right after she left to go back to the party. "I can't believe this...mom didn't believe us."

Frustrated, Huey was gathering his anger in his fists. "I knew it." He said. It's been so long that the kids seen their mother and their mother to them, with such a huge gap over the years, trust is eventually dried out. "We have to tell Uncle Donald and Daisy."

"Right, I'll go find Louie."

"Okay, come back to the party ASAP once you got him."

"Roger." Dewey replied as the brothers split up, hopefully as Dewey thought as he ran back to the guest room. That Victor Don Quack hasn't gotten to Louie first. "Louie," He knocked as he called. "It's me, Dewey!" The door suddenly creaked opened that made Dewey swing the door to its side and he saw Louie sitting on the guest bed with Victor beside him.
