Chapter 10

Gosalyn gasps and elbows the person in the side and grabs his arm and tossed him over her shoulder.

Laying in pain is McGee crying.

Gosalyn gasped and covered her beak from laughing.

"Oh my gosh! McGee!" She exclaimed.

"Hi." He managed to say with tears in his eyes.

She helped him up and slugged him in the arm.

"Don't you ever do that to me again! You scared the living crap out of me!"

"Sorry." He said.

"So, how did you find me?"

"Easy, you always come here when you're upset."

Gosalyn was shocked that he knew that about her.

"What are you stalking me now?"

"No! Well I did break into you're apartment."

"YOU DID WHAT?" She exclaimed.

"It was Tony's idea." He replied.

She just slapped him over the head.

"What was that for?" McGee said in pain rubbing his head.

"For listening to Tony. Did you found anything you like?" She asked teasingly.

"Uh.. just one thing that got my interested. But if I'm wrong just call me crazy and I'll drop it. Are you Quiverwing Quack?" He asked.

Gosalyn paused and sighed.

"You're crazy. Do I look like Quiverwing Quack?" She lied.

"Honestly though. I saw the costumes in you're closet. And that's how you're friend Honker died. He was arrow boy. And everything just made sense."

Gosalyn couldn't lie about it anymore.

"That was a long time ago McGee. I'm not the same."

"It's not you're fault that he died Gos. It was just an accident."

"I know that."

"Really? It's not you're fault. Nobody blames you for his death."

"Duh."

"It's not you're fault. He knew the risks of being a crime fighter."

"How long are you going to do this?"

"Until you get it. I mean really get it. I don't think that you really grieved him."

"What? How dare you! He was my best friend!"

"Good get mad! You should be mad, mad that you're dad took off and now showed up out of the blue. Mad that Misty is with Negaduck is responsible for Honker's death."

"Just stop it! I know what you're trying to do! And it's not.."

"It is not you're fault. He doesn't hate you. He never did."

That broke her down and had tears in her eyes.

"I couldn't save him! I just watched as he fell, I couldn't think…' She cried.

McGee smiled at her and held his hand out.

"Come on, let's go out for a walk." He said.

The two of them headed out, Misty followed them.

Back with Launch Pad and Drake.

"L.P. maybe you should just turn you're self in. That way it can be easier on everybody. I mean, you're team will figure it out in a second."

"Whose side are you on anyways? You think that you can just show up out of the blue and tell me how to live my life? I' m not you're side kick anymore. Haven't been for a long now."

"I know that you're not. I'm just.."

"Look, if you don't mind. I'm going to just focus on my plane. What ever Gosalyn decides to do. Is fine with me."

Drake just stood there and couldn't believe that Launch Pad was just going to make Gosalyn decide what to do.

Morgana knocks on Hunters door and no answer.

"Hunter darling. Can we talk?" She asked.

Still no answer and she opened up the door and saw that he had took off.

"Now where did that boy go this time?" She asked.

Hunter is in his wolf form running around trying to find Gosalyn in her usual hideouts.

His heart is beating like crazy. First place was the pizza joint, no luck, second was basketball no luck still. He grunted and took off to the other places.

"She better not have gotten too far." He said.

Gosalyn and McGee are sitting by the lake skipping stones.

"Wow, you and Honker must have been really close."

"We was more then sidekicks. He was my best friend. The first friend that I met when my dad adopted me and we moved to out home. The only one that I could really trust with my deepest darkest feelings. And he was my first love. You remind me of him so much. That you two would be like super close."

"Wow, I'm touched. So uh.. do you really think that Launch Pad did it?"

"My heart says no. But my head says yes. I mean Launch Pad couldn't hurt a flea if it was biting him. But then there is all the evidence against him. He confessed!"

"But it just doesn't make any sense. Cause there is no way that NegaDuck would allow him to get shot."

"That's because it's not him." Hunter said out of breath.

Gosalyn and McGee looked at him shocked.

"What are you talking about Hunter?"

"It's not NegaDuck. I had a feeling that something was up. So I hacked into you're computer."

"WHAT? You hacked into my computer? Oh great, not only do I worry about turning in Launch Pad but now you too? Can today get any worse?"

"Let's just go back into you're lab and I'll show you." He said.

"Alright, come on." Gosalyn said.

The three of them walked away and Misty is still following them.

Launch Pad and Drake are still talking.

"So uh besides the usual how have you been?" Drake asked.

Launch Pad paused and looked at him shocked.

"Really? Is that all you got? How have you been? Let's see wife and daughter died, been divorced 2 times. So how do you think? Look, I know this St. Canard is different from the one you remember. And nothing that you can say can change it back."

'Not if I can find the time top and head back home.' Drake thought to himself.

Back in the lab..

Hunter is on Gosalyn's computer.

"Alright Gos. I looked through all the files that you had and I spotted this. I'm surprised a pro like you didn't spot it."

He showed a picture of Negaduck and Gosalyn and McGee are studying it but didn't see anything.

"What are we looking for exactly?" Gosalyn asked.

"Remember when I was 8 and scratched him on the right eye?"

"Yeah, the scar is still there. I never was more proud of you."

"Well look at the picture of the body." He said.

A picture of the body showed up and the scar was missing!

"The scars missing?" Gosalyn exclaimed.

"Right, and think we're the only ones that would know about it."

"But wait a minute Hunter. Negaducks ego is bigger then Texas! There is no way that he would let some loser dress as him. I know that you're still trying to help…"

Hunter grunted and slammed his fist down on the desk.

"Look I know that you still see me as a little kid. But please just hear me out about this." He said.

Gosalyn thought back to when she said the same thing to Drake and smiled at him.

"Move over Hunt. We have a crime to solve."

She moved her chair next to him and the two of them started to work. McGee just stood there for a second and looked at the clock.

"Oh I have a date tonight. Are you two going to be okay?" He asked.

They were already long gone in conversation and we just walked out.

Gosalyn watched as he walked out and then narrowed her green eyes at the computer. Wasn't happy about this "date" that he had planned. He was never good at picking out girls.

Misty is watching from outside and her anger started to build up again. She always gets super jealous of Hunter and Gosalyn's relationship. They were always super close and are like the most alike. Leaving Misty as the odd man out. And knew what she had to do.

Hunters senses went crazy and felt something was watching them.

"Uh.. I'm going to go out and call mom. I kind of forgot to tell her that I was going." He laughed.

Gosalyn glanced over at him.

"How can you kind of forgot?" She teased.

"Alright, I just took off without telling her."

"Ah, been there done that. Okay, just don't take too long."

"Right." He said.

He got up from the chair and headed out.

Drake is now back with Morgana talking.

"I know what I have to do. I have to go back home and make sure that none of this would happen. If only I knew where the time top is. Launch Pad wouldn't be messed up, Gosalyn wouldn't be so afraid of everything, and Hunter…. Is he still here?"

"No, he's gone."

"Gone? Where?"

"I don't know he just took off. He's probably with his girlfriend Heather."

"He has a girlfriend?"

"A few of them Drake. The girls love him." She laughed.

Drake was stunned to hear that. He just got a bad feeling about it.

Hunter is outside sniffing around and he looked up and saw a huge black smoke coming at him.

"Ahh!" He exclaimed.

Inside Gosalyn heard him screaming and stopped what she was doing and took off running outside.

"Hunter?" She asked.

She looked around and the only she saw was his cell phone on the ground.

The scene went grey and paused.
