Author's disclaimer: I do not own Disney's Meet the Robinsons.

A/N: Finally I updated this story. I'm really sorry for being slow for both of the fanfictions including Another Believer. I have been really busy with school. Before I give you a whole of reasons of why I haven't updated, I want to thank everybody for reading and reviewing this story. Thank you! Without you people this would probably had not been posted yet. So I present to you chapter 4 of Feather Frenzy.


Chapter 4: A Fowl Problem

Ducks… who's to blame for this problem? …Duh Cornelius is, in Franny's opinion.

After a major discovery of what had happen, the couple was having a major argument on whose fault it was for being turned into ducks.

Franny pointed her wing at him. "This is all your fault. If you didn't prank me, we wouldn't be DUCKS right now."

"My fault, so I was the one that told you hey Franny, wouldn't it be great to prank Cornelius the way he prank my frogs, oops didn't know it would turn both of us to ducks," Cornelius retorted.

"So, who was the one who prank people or frogs using some kind of chemical that was design to make them shut up and freak their wife out? That would be YOU."

Cornelius rolled his eyes. "Well at least I didn't dropped the viral"

"There would have been no viral if you didn't create it," Franny combated with.

"It was supposed to be a prank Franny. A prank."

"A prank that turned us into ducks. Is that a prank? Yes I am sure laughing now. Haha I got FEATHERS and a BEAK," Franny said sarcastically.

"You dropped it."

"You created it."

"You're the one who thought about revenge."

"You're the one who thought about a stupid April Fool prank. No a very stupid April Fool prank for a genius like you."

"Well you couldn't take a joke."

Franny exclaimed, "A joke… a JOKE…that is not a joke Cornelius Lewis Robinson."

Oh Great his full name. Definitely in big trouble Cornelius. Way to go!

Franny continued on. "A joke where innocent frogs could have been hurt. You could have killed them… "

"What… I didn't hurt them. I told you it only seduced their voices."

"I don't care. You messed with my frogs," Franny pouted.

"Well there was countless time where you messed with my inventions."

"You're never supposed to prank your wife."

Cornelius sighed.

It is never good to argue with your wife, let alone she is of course always right…even in a moment like this where it could be questionable.

The best thing to do is … to give up on the subject. Remember "I am always right even when I'm wrong, I'm right."

"Okay, well at least I tried to fix things. I said I was sorry about that. Then I brought a stuff animal for you. And guess what I came home to be smaller than the stuff animal that I brought."

"You're… oh"

Maybe Franny was a little too tough on him on this.

Franny looked down and tried to fold her wings. "Well maybe it's not entirely your fault. I did thought about it, but then I realize it wasn't right and I didn't want anything bad to happen. You are not angry at me for this and for yelling at you?"

Cornelius smiled, "No, of course not, I was actually prepared for your prank, but I was not expecting this," lifting his wings to prove his point.

"I'm sorry about this," Franny replied sadly.

"It's okay Fran, it can always be worse. It could…"

Franny quickly interrupted him. "What could be worse than being ducks?"

Cornelius shook his head in distain. "Um well…uh it could have been very toxic to our bodies. Luckily it wasn't, but hopefully it didn't affect much with our DNA," Cornelius said.

Franny looked worried at him, "DNA?"

Cornelius slightly smiled, "Well, there is just a small chance that there could have been a mutation in the DNA from the reaction that could be irreversible."

"So there is a chance that we could be ducks for the rest of our LIFE?"

"Err, possibility, yes."

Franny looked down thinking, and quickly looked up and speaks frantically to him, "How will we live? How will you be able to work? How will we be able to take care of Wilbur?"

Cornelius pondered about this. "We're just going to have to keep moving forward, Franny. However, I said there was a small chance like one percent or less. I don't have the equipment here, but we can go to my office and I can do some tests to see if it is reversible and if so then I can create something that can fix this. I think I have an idea about how to do it, but it's going to take a few days, possibility weeks until I can successfully reverse this."

"So how are we going to get there anyways? I know we are not flying there as ducks," Franny inquired.

Trying to get into a laboratory that is heavily guarded, for strangers would be extremely difficult, let alone being ducks.

"Hmm… well we could just tell the family that we are ducks and we need to get to RI to fix it," Cornelius said calmly.

This is sure going to be one April's fool day that the family will never forget.

"And you expect that to be very simple like a snap of the finger. How can you be so calm about a situation like this?"

"Well, I'm very confident that the chemical shouldn't have done any permanent affects with the DNA. It's just only one thing that bothers me with that reaction," Cornelius replied.

Franny looking concerned at him asks, "And that would be…?"

"A chemical like that should not have done any kind of genetic mutation. It just supposed to seduce the vocal cords. It's a very unusual effect. Something I need to research, and perhaps it can help me find a solution for this quicker."

"Well okay then, let's do this, I want to be human again, not some kind of water fowl," Franny said while beginning to walk down the steps of the laboratory into the hallway of the house.

"A cute water fowl," Cornelius grinned as he caught back up with her.

"Shut up Lewis," Franny growled at the corny remark.

"What? It was just a compliment."

Franny replied sarcastically, "Yes being a duck it sure complimentary."

Cornelius laughed, "Depending on the situation."

Franny groaned. "How did I get myself into this?" Cornelius opened his mouth to reply just to be interrupted by Franny. "Don't answer that? You are still at partial or majority blame for this."

"At least I wasn't the one who dropped the viral."

Franny groaned again. "Again Lewis shut up."

"Okay, okay, no more jokes."

"Right because I sure got plenty of those today," Franny replied.

For Franny, today was the definitely the worst April's fool joke in history.

What can be worse than being ducks?

Down the hallway, little Wilbur came crawling out his room and spotted the two ducks.

Wilbur screeched as he started to run to them, "Duckies!"

Both Franny and Cornelius said together," Wilbur NOOOOO!"

Yep it just got worse…


Poor Franny and Cornelius...

So how was it? Interesting? Boring? I won't know until you guys review it. Also speaking about reviews, I have a major problem. My other story Another Believer didn't get any reviews for chapter 3 and I had over seventy views for it and it has been out for about a couple of months since I posted it. Would it be okay that you guys review that too after reading this and reviewing it? I just want to know how the story is coming and what I need to improve. I appreciate that very much.

So don't forget to review this story and Another Believer. Thank you everybody! :D
