I am so sorry it has taken me this long to update, its just I had major writers block, but to make up for my lack of updating you all will be getting a double post, so here is the next chapter…I hope everyone likes it, I feel really good about it, so please read and review.

The following morning, The Mighty Ducks and their manager, found themselves standing outside The Betty Ford Clinic, trying to find the courage to walk in. Canard especially found it hard, because of Wildwing's absence.

" Just so you all are aware…I still have no clue what I am going to tell the kid."

Grin looked at his co captain and slowly bowed his head.

" Please give us the courage to go through this difficult day."

After taking a deep breath, Phil started walked towards the door.

" Come on guys…we can't stay out here all day."

So everyone took deep breaths and silently prayed, to whoever was listening, " Please let this go smoothly."

When they walked in, Phil walked over to the nurses station, while the team stayed in the waiting area.

" Excuse me…I was wondering if you could help me?"

The nurse looked up and gave a small smile.

" Sure what can I do for you?"

" My name is Phil Palmfeather, and I was wondering if you could contact Dr. Monroe, my family and I would like to talk to him."

" Sure hold on one second."

A few seconds later.

" Mr. Palmfeather, if you would like to have a seat in the waiting area, Dr. Monroe will be with you shortly."

" Thank you."

Then Phil turned around and headed back to his team.

" Just sit tight, and he will be here shortly."

The team nodded and started to get comfortable, when Dr. Monroe approached them.

" Hi…you all must be The Mighty Ducks…I'm Dr. Monroe, please lets step into my office."

After the introductions, and everyone was seated, Duke started the conversation.

" I know you told us to wait and not to come down, but this kid means too much to us, we couldn't just wait by a phone."

" I completely understand Duke, and I'm glad you didn't listen, this shows me that you all care, however there is one person I don't see?"

Canard leaned forward into the chair.

" His brother is going through a lot right now and due to recent events, Wildwing felt that it would be better if he stayed behind."

" So how are you going to explain that to Nosedive?"

Canard gave a small laugh and smiled.

" I don't know yet…my mind hasn't thought that far ahead."

Dr Monroe returned the smile.

" Again that is totally understandable. Now I'm sure you all have questions, so let me try and explain things without the questions. The reason why Nosedive did what he did was because there is someone here, who played a part in Nosedive's past with drugs and alcohol. Unfortunately, due to laws, I can't revile the name, but what I can tell you is he was a heavy user and he saw what Nosedive went through and he also saw what Bobby went through, so he voluntarily came here, unlike Nosedive, who was forced…"

" So the kid felt like he let all of us down?"

" Exactly Tanya, that's what he felt. The good news is, this will not affect his stay here, which means when we feel he is ready to be discharged, he will be discharged and from the way I see it, it will be the normal time. However there is bad news…when we have a patient who attempts suicide, we usually put them on an antidepressant, but due to Nosedive's drug usage, I am not allowed to."

Everyone just looked at each other trying to read the other person's mind, while Dr. Monroe continued.

" Nosedive has shown incredible progress within the 2 months he's been here, and I can honestly say, when it's his time to leave, I will miss him."

Feeling a lot better, since they walked in, the ducks and Phil smiled.

" Can we see him?"

" Yes, but only one of you."

After everyone agreed on Canard, the co captain took a deep shaky breath and made his way to the teens room, while the rest stayed with the doctor.

When he reached the room, Canard slowly opened the door and saw Nosedive sitting up in bed, watching Berney the Bear.

" Don't you know that stuff will rot your brain?"

Nosedive slowly turned his head and gave a huge smile.

" Canard…what are you doing here?"

After hugging, Canard grabbed a chair and set it down by the bed.

" We were in the neighborhood so thought of dripping by for a visit."

Nosedive's face lit up when he heard the word "we"

" What do you mean we…"

" The team and Phil."

" Wildwing is here."

" Actually he is not here?"

Nosedive's face fell when he heard that."

" Why?"

" Uh…the reason why he isn't here is because…he's…"

" He's mad huh?"

" He's not mad, he's just disappointed, and he felt that it would be better if he stayed home."

" Oh…ok."

After a few minutes of silence, Nosedive turned off the TV and stared at the wall, while Canard started playing with the edge of the blanket.

" So how are you feeling?"

" I'm tired, but I guess that's normal after loosing a lot of blood."

" Ok. Oh and we talked to your doctor and he said that this little stunt isn't going to effect you going home, so if you continue to make the progress that you are making, you will be able to go home next month."

After hearing that, Nosedives face lit up.

" Oh good…I was a little worried."

" Nosedive the doctor also told us the reason…and take it from someone who watched you grow up…I don't care how you got here, whether it was by force or voluntarily…as long as you are here getting help, that's all we ask for."

Just then Mallory and Duke poked their head in the door.

" Hey don't hog him all to yourself, we would like to see him too."

Laughing, Canard let the rest of the team in, so Nosedive could spend time with his family.

After getting a tour around the clinic and introducing them to some of the friends he made, they made their way back to his room, so Nosedive could rest.

" Thank you so much for being here guys, you have no clue how much this means to me."

Duke smiled and wrapped his arm around the kids shoulder.

" You are very welcome…and don't worry about your brother, when things start to calm down, he will come around."

Nosedive nodded his head, then looked at the clock.

" What time are you guys heading back?"

Phil was the one who smiled.

" Well we figure Sunday. I mean we have never been to this part of California before, so we decided to stick around for a few days."

When Nosedive heard that, he jumped out of bed and ran right into Phil's arms.

" Thank you so much."

Phil returned the hug with equal force while tears started to form under his eyes.

" Well we better get going, so you get some rest and we will see you first thing tomorrow morning."

Nosedive hugged each of his team mates and after they left, he finally started to feel better.
