It has been 2 Months since I last updated, I know, but better late than never right? Enjoy Chapter 3!
Chapter 3.
The sound of ocean waves had crashed against some rocks leaving the sparkling water droplets to cascade all over like raining diamonds while the tide was slowly coming in leaving the seagulls to make a landing onto the wet sand to search for some lifeless fish that had soon washed up on the beach. The couple of Duckcycles along with the 4 mallards then made their way through the quiet atmosphere as Duke grinned real wide knowing that the remaining 3 drakes were going to love his surprise that he had in store for them. Telling them to close their eyes as well as getting the no peeking rule, Wildwing then rolled his own orbs but quickly did what the former Brotherhood Leader instructed as he then guided them along being careful for them not to step on anything or accidentally step on a hermit crab either.
For the past 4 minutes, Nosedive was soon growing restless from all of the walking the group was enduring, but with the large warm hand from his lover, he then relaxed knowing just how much the presence and influence of the Zen duck had such a great impact on him knowing fully well that he always felt safe and well protected whenever he was around to help him calm his nerves from the many troubles he would face at times. He was definitely lucky to have such a gentle and patient boyfriend like Grin. Finally, coming to an open space, the grey fowl told the males to now open their eyes as they soon grew surprised by what they were witnessing at the moment.
There laid a large red and white checkered blanket that sat a big enough picnic basket along with a bottle of sparkling champagne and sparkling cider due to Dive not being the legal age to drink yet. Next to the basket, stood a bowl of both green and red grapes as well as a cracker platter with a combination of cheese plus cream cheese if wanted. And to top it all off, there was even a vegetable platter with a medium sized bowl with bottles of different salad dressings for dipping standing tall and proud right next to it. Wildwing soon hugged the one eyed drake nuzzling his cheek with his beak then asking him how was he able to pull it off so without anyone knowing, only for him to reply that it was all Tanya's idea as she was the one to help as well as being the first one to know about the relationship which she was okay with; all she just really wanted was to see her friends happy.
Once all the Mallards had sat down, the basket was now open. Grin then did the honors of taking out 4 wine glasses plus the bottle opener as he soon used it to open up the cider for himself and his blonde lover who grinned real widely taking a sip of the grape flavored bubbly that left a sweet after taste down his throat while Wing on the other hand told his little brother to not drink so fast who only rolled his eyes knowing that he was going to be put into full Older sibling mode soon enough. The elder drakes then chuckled as they continued to enjoy the delicacies while watching the ocean. The stars twinkled like sparkling diamonds along with the full moon that helped beamed its bold bright light downwards while the roaring of the waves created an excellent masterpiece that was both mesmerizing and breathtaking all at once.
Wildwing had no idea that such a large place like the beach which was filled with people and fun in the daytime, could be this beautiful at night. Although they have been here before at times due to Phil's publicity stunts, he didn't take much time to appreciate its captivating beauty because of always planning on how to defeat Dragaunus and wanting to get back home. But the truth of the matter was that since being on Earth for quite sometime, he had taken the time to appreciate the locations and humans around once they saw that the ducks were not a threat towards them coming to terms that they were estactic to see alien talking ducks on their planet.
Nosedive though, had instantly taken a liking here due to the fact that there were many exciting places that he could go to which catered to both the children and teenager scenes without causing the worries of his brother; and since he and Grin were together, he could be able to share some awesome memories along with him who wouldn't give up his boyfriend to nobody else in the world and he was extremely happy to have such a caring, thoughtful, smart, and of course hot partner by his side. Whether it was just sitting in the pond watching reruns of Bernie the Bear, or fighting with the team to stop the Saurian overlord, Nosedive knew that he could always trust and depend on the giant drake no matter what situation they were in.
Once the light meal had been finished, and everything had been put away, The Mighty Duck leader soon found himself walking barefooted staring at the tremendous waters that looked so serene once they had been calm enough. A light breeze blew through his feathers then taking in the relaxing smell as he sat down using his finger to draw in the sand.
"This spot taken?" Asked Duke who looked down towards his lover who shook his head as he too followed his sitting position while they watched the calming waves without any exchange of words knowing that this scenery right in front of them was enough. "So, how do like this place so far?" He asked once again leaving the 6'1 inch duck to smile warmly.
"It's so beautiful here, thank you so very much for a great time, I enjoyed every minute of it."
"I'm glad you did, I felt like it was bout high time that we get out and enjoy a night out which doesn't happen often though. But I'm glad you did had fun."
"You know, ever since we came here, my main goal was for us to stop Dragaunus and get back home; but, for some reason, this place feels like a second home to all of us. Despite our differences, the humans have really taken a liking to us as well to the point, it makes me feel accepted that no matter what, we are all equal in our own way possible." Wildwing explained causing his boyfriend to smile as his amber eye twinkled under the moonlight as he brought him closer towards him nuzzling his cheek and neck. Pretty soon, shooting stars could be seen soaring across the pitch black skies while they pointed in different directions.
Not too far, Nosedive and Grin were also watching the stars as they looked warmly towards each other thus having a passionate lip lock in the process.
"Oh Grin, this has been one of the greatest nights of my life." Muttered the blonde as the philosophical duck held his young lover protectively yet gently in his arms.
"Mine too, little one, mine too."
Sorry if the ending looks rushed and feels like it doesn't have a proper end, but knowing in my heart, I feel that this is where the story should end after leaving it on a temporary hiatus for 2 whole months. If some of you are Duke x Wildwing and Grin x Nosedive fans, share your own thoughts and leave comments on how you thought the fic was to you. More Mighty Ducks Fics will be coming in from real soon, until then, peace be with you.
And of course, Ducks Rock!
