- No, I don't post anything about my stories on those sites. I have other reasons.
- I'm not sure. I'm going to be diving deeper into Della and Louie's relationship as a lot of people have. While Louie does deserve to be punished for the Timephoon (which he still hates himself for). The problem is the way the punishment was handled was just cruel and downright stupid. I mean, locking a child in their room like a prison? Leaving a rogue robot as security? Telling him he doesn't deserve to see his dream vacation because he hasn't earned it? And saying that Louie should stop scheming is basically telling him that he has to stop being who he is in the family if he wants to be a part of it, which is messed up. There's a difference between tough love and just being downright cruel without thinking. A lot of people dived deeper into that relationship.
- There are some elements of puppydog I'm using like the diary but I promise you that Della isn't going to be that cruel. There might be a little bit added like that slap she gave Louie in one of my flashbacks in season 3 but other than that I will do my best to stay within her character. Louie and Della are both going to learn the consequences of both their actions and in the end there will be a very touching scene between them that will make those cruel moments a fond memory and it will be a hundred times better than puppydog's. Trust me on that Stafford.
Anyway, here's the new episode. Enjoy my friends! Hope to get a lot of reviews for this.
Deep inside a boiling, smoky and fiery cave in Death Valley, one of the Nordic places Donald, Scrooge and Della had gone to during their earlier, Donald lay shackled and imprisoned in an upside down cage hanging from the ceiling. He speaks to the audience wearing his world-travelling attire.
Donald: Now I know what you're thinking: "Oh no, Donald's in a cage, how the heck did this happen?" Well, sometimes you have to get yourself captured in order to get answers. Long story short, you know I'm a hero right? I fight robots, monsters, incredibly powerful beings, save the planet a couple of times, you get how it works. That's what happens when you're related to the Greatest Adventurer in the world and you have a whole family of adventurers. Then I went around the globe in the Gummiship looking for some magic colourful Infinity Stone things, of course I couldn't find any. They're really hard to find. That's when I had a nightmare of death and destruction, which lead me to come here, then into this cage… He smiles at something in front of him. …Where I met you.
Sitting in front of his is a duck skeleton. It's beak opens and the bottom part looses and drops down.
Donald: So…how long are we in here?
Then all of a sudden the cage opens and Donald screams as he falls down. He stops right above some flaming liquid, his chains holding him up and his skeleton friend breaking apart upon impact. Donald looks around to see he's surrounded by multiple stone supports and lava in a lot of places until he hears a chuckle. His chain turns him around to see…
Sitting on rock throne is a large figure with a double horned helmet, his body is made out of molten rock as is his face even though it's skeletal shaped and his eyes glow sinisterly with flames. His entire body is filled with fire. It was none other than the Fire Demon, Surtur.
Surtur: Donald Duck…Mage of Thunder…Son of Quackmore.
Donald: Surtur…The Fire Demon…Son of…a bitch. You're still alive? I thought my father killed you like 100 years ago.
Surtur: I cannot die, not until I fulfil my destiny and lay waste to this puny planet.
Donald: You know, speaking of laying waste to this puny planet, I've been having these terrible dreams of something like that happening. Earth being devastated by strange spaceships and this alien I saw was at that centre of it all, as were the Infinity Stones. I thought there might be one of those things in here but it's clear I was wrong. So I thought I could get some answers out of you since you're as old as the universe itself.
Surtur: His expression is unreadable but he is intrigued. Interesting…could it be that you have seen Ragnarok. The fall of Earth! The great prophecy! The-
Donald: Hang on. Donald had been twisted backward by the chains and mockingly waits to be turned back to Surtur. Hang on, I'll be back around shortly. You know I really thought we were connecting there. Donald is now facing Surtur again. Look, I don't care about a prophecy right now; all I care about are these Infinity Stones. My family already has 3 of them, but I can't find the other 3 anywhere.
Sutur: Of course you can't. 4 of the Infinity Stones were scattered throughout this planet but the other two are lost in this Solar System. Even I don't know their exact location.
Donald: So what you're saying is two of those stones are lost in space…guess that explains why I can't find them…but what about the 4th one on Earth. I looked everywhere for that but I can't find it anywhere.
Surtur: Surtur laughs. Oh, but you needn't have to look for the 4th one. Your family already has it; you just don't know it yet. But your uncle does.
Donald widens his eyes, Could his uncle know the location of the 4th stone. Why didn't he say anything?
Donald: Interesting. And what about this Ragnarok, does it have anything to do with the stones?
Surtur: Ragnarok is many things. Overall, it will lead to the destruction of Earth. And I have the right to cause it, no one else but me.
Donald: I'm guessing you need the Infinity Stones to achieve that?
Surtur: The Infinity Stones contain unlimited power but I have no need for them when I have my crown. My time has come, my crown will reach its full power by the end of this day and I shall be restored to my full might! I WILL TOWER OVER THE MOUNTAINS AND BURY MY SWORD DEEP IN EARTH'S-!
Donald: Whoops! Sorry, hang on! After mockingly cutting off Surtur again Donald is once again twisted backwards much to Sutur's annoyance. Give it a second. I swear, I'm not even doing anything, it's just moving me on its own. He's facing Surtur again. So let me get this straight, your crown is charging up and once it's fully powered, you'll grow as big as a house?
Surtur: A MOUNTAIN!
Donald: And do you mind telling me where this crown is?
Surtur: The demon points to the helmet he's wearing. This is my crown. The source of my power!
Donald: Donald mockingly smirks and at the same time is a little surprised. Oh! That's a crown? I had no idea they could like that for Nordic monsters like you. I thought it was a big eyebrow.
Surtur: It's a crown! Your arrogance rivals that of your deceased father!
Donald: Like father like son, as they always say. Anyway, I came here to find Infinity Stones and now I find myself having to stop you but that shouldn't be too hard. It seems like all I have to do to stop Ragnarok is rip that thing off your head.
Surtur merely laughs, getting off his throne and dragging his large flame sword and grinding it along the ground.
Surtur: But Ragnarok has already begun, you cannot stop it.
Donald: I've stopped many world destroying events before; I don't see how this is any different.
Surtur grabs the chain and holds it up for Donald be right in front of his face but the Mage of Thunder stares defiantly with confidence and cockiness.
Surtur: I am Earth's doom and so are you! All will suffer, all will burn!
Donald: That sounds intense. Seeing you grow really big and set fire to a planet would quite the spectacle for my kids, mainly Dewey and Webby. He chuckles a little but gets serious. But, instead I'll just go with Option B which is where I bust out of these chains, knock that tiara of yours off your head and stash it away in Uncle Scrooge's Other Bin. He gives off a smirk.
Surtur: Whether it's by me or not you cannot stop Ragnarok. Why fight it?
Donald: Because… Behind his back Donald's palm opens. Whether I like it or not, I'm a hero. And that's what heroes do!
He expected his staff to fly in his hand the moment he said that for dramatic affect but to Donald and Surtur's confusion that doesn't happen. Donald chuckles nervously.
Donald: Whoops…sorry…I didn't time that right.
(Drum Roll). A faint sound of an object crashing through walls can be heard and Surtur turns to the source while Donald becomes overjoyed.
Donald: And…NOW!
Immigrant Song
Save the Queen bursts through the wall just as Donald slips his hand out to catch his staff and fly out of his chains, clutching his partner tightly. Surtur sadistically holds up his large sword.
Surtur: You have made a grave mistake Duck.
Donald: I've made plenty of mistakes before. Donald finds himself faced with a huge double horned dragon. Everything…seems to work out just fine.
Donald now finds himself being charged by an army of hundreds of Surtur's smaller flame demon minions. Donald slices the first one; he punches another before elbowing the third. 5 demons leap at him, trying to pin him but he blows them way before blasting a horde of them with a Wateraza spell. 2 more try to rush him but Donald punches and kicks them away. When a multitude of demons rush at him Donald spins his staff around, destroying a large amount of them with incredible ease before tossing Save the Queen. As Donald uses expert martial arts moves to punch, elbow and kick multiple demons coming his way, Save the Queen flies around in a circle and destroys a huge amount of demons, glimmering as it does. Donald holds out his hand and Save the Queen flies back to him and just in time for Donald to swiftly turn and bash another demon with a one handed swipe. Donald gets back into a battle stance and sees all the demons attempting to rip him to pieces and the chained dragon lunging.
With a loud battle cry Donald leaps into the air and drops down to smash his staff in the ground, creating a field of water and electricity that annihilates the demon army and temporarily knocks out the dragon. Surtur with a cry of anger sends a blast of flame from the tip of his blade but Donald holds out a free hand to form a barrier, blocking the flames but is seemingly getting pushed back. Donald reels back his staff before thrusting and ploughing through the flames the bash Surtur's face twice. The demon grunts and Donald tosses his staff in the face after landing. Donald's staff swirls with electricity as he leaps up with a cry of fury as he parries Surtur's sword strike and bashes him in the face again. Surtur reels back in pain and Donald casts another Wateraza spell. Surtur becomes engulfed and his flames are put out as Donald repeatedly tosses his staff to make him reel back. Surtur tries cutting him in two but Donald leaps up and onto the rock pillars nearby. Just as the Fire demon turns Donald jumps off deliver an electrifying blow to the face that puts an end to Surtur.
The demon drops down, his body crumbling, his fire hence his essence fades into his crown which drops to the ground. Donald grabs it and some chains, strapping the crown to his back and seeing the dragon back up and more demons headed his way. Donald takes out a couple more but he can't keep it up forever.
Donald: Only way out is up!
He gets out the Gummi remote and presses the big red button. In seconds the Gummiship equipped with drill digs through the ceiling and a beam of light teleports the Mage of Thunder inside. The dragon gets free and with no time to spare Donald gets in the pilot seat.
Donald: I'm outta here!
Donald blasts the ship through the ceiling and the dragon gives chase.
The Gummiship bursts out the ground and into the blue skies of the Valley of Death. Donald flies forward at high speed and the dragon flies after the ship breathing fire.
Donald: Papa's got a little treat for you scaly-faced palooka!
Donald does a loop and gets above the dragon.
Donald: Maximum Power!
He activates all the weapons, sending out every laser and energy shots he could that make the dragon roar in pain. Donald drills it to the ground, a dust cloud created upon impact. The ship flies out safely with Donald inside smirking as he makes his way home.
Donald: Sometimes I just love this job. So much for Ragnarok!
…
He gets out his walkman, places the tape in a player and one of his favourite music plays, "Rubberband Man." He sings along with in celebration of saving the Earth again.
Unbeknownst to Donald, in the cave laid a lot of his feathers. He doesn't know that he has begun moulting.
Meanwhile, on the moon, like her brother Della has completed her own expedition. She runs through the weightless wastelands of the moon in her torn pilot out and wearing her goggles carrying over her shoulder a sack of gold she acquired from the city of Tranquillity, which is essential in fixing up her ship. With the amount of gold and metal in the city and being able to have all the time to train thanks to Lunaris' device she'll soon be able to return home in tip-top shape.
She is unaware of Lieutenant Penumbra spying on her, through her binoculars she sees Della jump into the crater her damaged rocket rests in.
Scenes shift inside where Della drags the sack of heavy gold with grunts of effort, not wanting to attract too much attention by showing off her muscles and super strength. The news of the Shadow War ending keeps playing as she places the gold on her
Penumbra is just outside and pokes through the entrance to see Della preparing to weld. The female duck is about to sleep but snaps out of it quickly to continue working.
Della: Can't stop! So close!
She puts her goggles back on and begins welding. Penumbra is incredibly suspicious.
Penumbra: Treacherous spy. What are you really up to?
Intro
Donald's staff and Scrooge's dime falls out of the sky. The dime rolls and the staff flies away from Donald and Scrooge who are smirking with confidence. Donald motions Huey, Dewey, Louie, Webby and Scrooge to follow his lead and they run after both items while running from all of their enemies.
Life is like a hurricane
Here in Duckburg!
They now run in the city itself, everything zooms out to reveal multiple people to Launchpad who give a salute before quickly taking back control over the plane.
Race cars, lasers, airplanes
It's a duck-blur!
Webby uses a flashlight to help search the dime and staff in the darkness but the kids gets scared away by Demonworth.
Might solve a mystery or rewrite history!
DuckTales! Woo-oo!
Scenes shift to a room where Donald, Scrooge and the kids relish with the treasure they've found but yelp in horror when a lobster monster arrives causing Louie to make a run for it but loses the gold he picked up in the process.
Every day they're out there making
DuckTales! Woo-oo!
Donald is in his houseboat with a determined expression sailing it across a violent storm across the seas with Scrooge right next to him and Launchpad placing the boys in one life jacket. Unfortunately a rope from a pirate ship ensnares Launchpad and swings him around.
Tales of derring-do
Bad and good luck tales! Woo-oo!
Beakely drives Scrooge through a safari where he fails to grab his dime. The kids ride on a rhino with Donald being dragged a long rope and failing to catch his staff.
Scenes shift to a room where Dewey pulls out a sword, opening a cage that releases the Golden Dragon. Beakely and Donald get into a battle stance and the fire on Scrooge's torch goes out.
D-d-d-danger! Lurks behind you!
There's a stranger out to find you
What to do, just grab on to some…
Scrooge is tapped on the shoulder and now the mummy of Toth-Ra is chasing the 6 ducks across the room. Webby fires her grappling hook which grips onto a pole. Everyone holds onto her and they fly up. They surround Toth-Ra, grab onto lose papers sticking from his body and pull. He spins until he's reduced to nothing but bones.
DuckTales! Woo-oo! They run back to the gold room.
Every day they're out there making
The Duck/McDuck family are surrounded by their enemies again. Donald holds out his hand and his staff comes flying back to him. He leaps up and a blast of lightning changes his clothes before casting a thunder spell that shocks the Beagle Boys and clashes with Merlock. Scrooge stops where he is fearlessly before flipping up and diving inside the coins. He comes back and Donald, Scrooge, Dewey, Huey, Louie and Webby continue fearlessly running across the floor of coins with the Sunchaser following.
DuckTales! Woo-oo!
Tales of derring-
Bad and good-
Not ponytails or cottontails, no
DuckTales! WOO-OO!
As he's chases by his enemies, Scrooge swims after his dime until he reaches the top of a formation where Beakely pulls the kids and Donald up. Donald points his staff at their enemies and the rest gets into a battle stance while Scrooge finally catches his dime. Just as they were about to crash the Sunchaser crashes into 'DuckTales' signs, knocking their enemies off.
…
After finishing his expedition Donald enters the manor in his primary black sailor outfit with the crown of Surtur still strapped on his back. He whistles a tune while listening to his walkman until the voice of one of his favourite people pipes.
Daisy: Donald!
Donald takes out his earbuds and brightens when he sees Daisy (in her primary outfit) as they walk up to each other.
Donald: Hiya Daisy, when did you get here?
Daisy: Oh, I got here just now.
Donald: How are April, May and June?
Daisy: Pretty good, they're having a sleepover at a friend's house. She notices the crown and her eyes widen. WHOA! Where on Earth did you get that thing!?
Donald: Let's just say that I went on a solo expedition that turned into a mission to save the Earth from one of my father's enemies that no one will ever know about.
Daisy: Daisy smiles proudly at her boyfriend. So you saved the Earth again. Aww, Donald I'm so proud of you.
She gives a kiss on the cheek and Donald chuckles a little while blushing.
Donald: I'd better head upstairs to Scrooge's office so this thing can be stashed away.
Daisy: Okay, I'll catch up with you later.
Donald heads upstairs and at first Daisy is smiling but she becomes comically taken aback when she sees a multitude of feathers dropping from his body.
Scrooge was having some nutmeg tea in his office while listening to soothing Scottish music until her heard someone knock on his door.
Scrooge: Enter. Donald comes in and Scrooge smiles. Aah, Donald. What can I do for ye in this fine morning?
Donald: I wanted to show you a little souvenir I got on a solo adventure of mine.
He takes the crown off and presents it. Scrooge is so amazed he drops his nutmeg tea.
Scrooge: Ayer my argyles! He gets up and walks over to grab the crown. This is the crown of Surtur, the Fire Demon! Where on Earth did you get this?
Donald: Death Valley. You know that place with the Vikings and you and Della froze me in a block of eyes.
Scrooge: I remember that.
Scrooge is a little sheepish, remembering their adventure in Death Valley. One of the adventures in which Donald felt like a third wheel and Scrooge and Della gave him unappreciative treatment which ended with him being frozen in ice.
Donald: Well, you know I've been going around the globe searching for the Infinity Stones so that they don't fall into the wrong hands.
Scrooge's expression becomes grim, remembering Donald had a nightmare that was do with the stones and possibly the end of the world.
Scrooge Have you found any lad?
Donald: No, I've looked everywhere I could go to in the Gummiship; I can't seem to find those stones anywhere. I got myself captured on purpose by Surtur to get information out of him and hoped there was a stone in his lair but that was no help.
Scrooge: Your father once defeated that dastardly demon.
Donald: Yeah, but it looks like he survived. He kept bragging about some ancient prophecy called Ragnarok which is supposed to be the destruction of Earth, said he'd grow as big as a mountain and destroy the planet. He proudly jerks a thumb to himself. Luckily, I was there to put a stop to that and put an end to him. I defeated him, his minions and a dragon. Now his essence is trapped inside the crown.
Scrooge: Scrooge is clearly proud of his nephew. You did a great job in preventing Ragnarok lad, your father would be proud.
Donald: Thanks Uncle Scrooge.
Scrooge: I have this crown stashed away in the Other Bin. I have a special room waiting just for Surtur.
Donald: Donald crosses his arms with a smirk. So you were prepared for Surtur's, eh?
Scrooge: What can I say, sharper than the sharpies, remember? The both of them laugh it off until they hear the door knock again. Come in.
Daisy: Daisy pokes her head through. Am I disturbing?
Scrooge: Not at all. She walks in concerned.
Daisy: Um…Donald, have you noticed anything strange about yourself lately?
Donald: Donald tilts his head in confusion No…I feel fine. What do you mean by strange?
Daisy: Well…let's just say you might want to get a doctor.
Donald: Huh? Daisy holds a transparent sack of Donald's feathers that fell out much to his horror. Wait…ARE THOSE MY FEATHERS!? Scrooge comically gasps in terror much to Donald's confusion. What's wrong!?
Scrooge: Scrooge points down. That…
Donald finds himself standing in a pile of his feathers. His face turns comically purple as a realization hit him. He remembered yesterday when he was itching badly…it was a sign for this…
Donald: I'm moulting… I'm MOULTING!
He screams so loudly his voice blasts out of the mansion and scares some crows away.
We go back to Della on the moon who's training once more in the gravity chamber wearing her workout clothes, consisting of her small olive sports bra that wraps around her neck, leaving her entire abdomen and back exposed, black tracksuit trousers with white stripes on each side, her pure white trainers and her hair is tied in a ponytail.
The female duck is pushing herself more than ever before, way far beyond the breaking point. The gravity in the room is now at 1200G and Della stands in one spot looking down intensely, her eyes shadowed as her muscular body sweats from the excessive workout. Her muscles are flexed and they swell with strength under the intense gravity and the straps of heavy weight on her wrists and ankles. In an instant she disappears, moving at high-speed giving off loud grunts as she throws rapid punches with sweat flying out of her fists and face before doing super fast cartwheels, backflips and acrobatics. She performs a full fury of martial arts at peak potential, punching and kicking as much as she could. She jumps around delivering a flurry of kicks, punches and doing multiple flips before landing on the floor to catch her breath.
She inhales and exhales in sheer exhaustion. Her body is drenched in sweat that's runs down her face and body which has been sculpted by her training once more. Her back muscles and biceps are unbelievably shredded and her 6-pack abs are close to becoming 8-packs again.
She looks down the floor in intense focus, breathing heavily as she struggles to stand straight from fatigue. She roughly drops to her hand and knees while groaning in pain. The gravity has increased to 1350G and Della's groans of pain become louder as she struggles to breathe in the intense heat. More of her veins show in her abs, arms and face as sweat drips down, especially from her face and veins can be seen in her eyes. Despite all that she manages to look up with fiery determination.
Della: I don't care how much I'm breaking my body! I'm going to keep shattering my limits no matter how many times I collapse.
Della is now aggressively and violently launching a flurry of punches on a large, heavy punching bag filled with rocks inside with nothing but her bare hands (leaving out her strapped fingerless gloved hand). Sweat is gushing out her entire body, her ponytail swishing wildly with each punch she threw. Della keeps punching the bag and as she does she keeps getting sweatier and sweatier. Sweat flies out of her arm with each punch she delivers, she becomes even more muscular under the intense gravity and the punching bag is swinging back like crazy. She keeps this up for what feels like days with no rest, sweat continuing to spill wildly as she unleashes punches like there's no tomorrow faster with more muscles building. Eventually she delivers a punch so hard the boxing bag is literally sent flying out of the ring and smashing into the wall where it explodes.
Della has her arm outstretched panting, sweat drips from everywhere around her and some steam is coming out of her hands.
Della: This doesn't even feel like a challenge.
She stands tall under the intense gravity before setting up an even larger and heavier punching back that looks like it's field with larger rocks. She gets in front of the bag and assumes a boxing stance, bringing up her clenched fists. She launches a full fury of aggressive punches and kicks more rapid than her last ones. Unbelievably, she keeps tirelessly doing this for what feels like 6 months inside the chamber with no rest as the gravity increased to 1500G and she focuses on nothing but punching with her bare fists.
The recollection of painful memories makes her rage boil and she punches with the fury of a wild animal and her body builds up more and more muscles against the intolerable gravity.
Sweat flies from everywhere around her body and her long ponytail thrashes and wishes wildly, spilling sweat as well, as her punches get faster and more aggressive. The punching bag is uncontrollably getting knocked about but Della doesn't care. She unleashes punches like there's no tomorrow at high speed for 6 hours. She yells out and winds her arm back before dealing a really powerful blow that sends the massive bag flying and bouncing off the ring ropes towards her. She grabs it stopping it in place while flexing her monstrous muscles. With a shout of anger Della bangs the huge bag over her shoulder repeatedly before twisting it faster than a helicopter and tossing it away. The punching bag explodes with large rocks upon impact. Della stands tall, her eyes shadowed again as every one of her veins threaten to explode again, she constantly breathes heavily as she feels more sweat drop from her body, she's red hot and she feels all of her muscles become uncontrollably more ripped, especially her back muscles and she feels like they could explode any moment. The sweat makes her muscles shine from the amazing tone.
Della: I'm gaining more power…more strength…more muscles…I'm getting stronger…and stronger each second in this chamber…yes…much stronger.
She then grabs the ring ropes for support, flexing her shredded, shiny, sweaty back muscles as hard she could, feeling a wave of fatigue and the immense gravity crushing her body while she pants in pain.
Della: I'm…not…tired…feel the burn, burn the feeling…must keep…going…!
Della is doing one fingered push-ups with a massive boulder on her back while holding up a fully loaded barbell weighing 100,000kg with her free hand. Sweat is dripping out of her body with each push up she does and her muscles keep swelling with power as veins threaten to explode from her face. The gravity continuously increases until it reaches 2000G.
Della: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26...999,994, 999,995, 999,996, 999,997, 999,998, 999,999, 1,000,000, 1,000,001, 1,000,002, 1,000,003, 1,000,004, 1,000,005, 1,000,006, 1,000,007, 1,000,008, 1,000,009, 1,000,010, 1,000,011... 4,999,989, 4,999,990, 4,999,991, 4,999,992, 4,999,993, 4,999,994, 4,999,995, 4,999,995, 4,999,996, 4,999,997, 4,999,998, 4,999,999... 5,000,000!
With a pained expression she holds up the boulder and the barbell.
Once again she's doing hanging sit-ups but this time it's different as she tortures herself by attaching a barbell weighing 500,000kg, she holds up dumbbells weighing 250,000kg, 2 5000kg kettle balls are attached to her abs and the gravity has increased to 2200G. Her ponytail is undone and Della screams in horrible pain and agony as her body is breaking from torment it's being put through but she fights it enough to do painful sit-ups, only caring about her kids and gaining strength. Her muscles are becoming monstrously ripped and shredded, her abs are changing and her biceps and back have unreal definition and muscle to them. Veins threaten to explode from everywhere and her eyes.
Della: …5,000,000, 5,000,001, 5,000,002, 5,000,003, 5,000,004, 5,000,005, 5,000,006, 5,000,007, 5,000,008… 7,880,000, 7,880,001, 7,880,002, 7,880,003, 7,880,004… 9,999,985… 9,999,986… 9,999,987… 9,999,988… 9,999,989… 9,999,990… 9,999,991… 9,999,992… 9,999,993… 9,999,994… 9,999,995… 9,999,996… 9,999,997… 9,999,998… 9,999,999… 10,000,000! Della stays up for 1 hour flexing her ripped back and biceps as hard as she could. Need to keep going until I reach 1 billion! 10,000,001, 10,000,002, 10,000,003, 10,000,004, 10,000,005, 10,000,006, 10,000,007, 10,000,008, 10,000,009... 55,000,766, 55,000,767, 55,000,768, 55,000,769, 55,000,770, 55,000,771, 55,000,772... 99,999,994, 99,999,995, 99,999,996, 99,999,997, 99,999,998, 99,999,999, 100,000,000… Della feels herself body become monstrously sculpted and keeps it lifted, feeling herself becoming exponentially muscular for another hour but screams in pain as she does. I can feel my body breaking… I've got to burn the pain… gotta get stronger…stronger…STRONGER! 100,000,001, 100,000,002, 100,000,003... And eventually… 650,000,778, 650,000,779, 650,000,780, 650,000,781, 650,000,782, 650,000,783, 650,000,784, 650,000,785, 650,000,786… 999,999,989... 999,999,990... 999,999,991... 999,999,992... 999,999,993... 999,999,994... 999,999,995... 999,999,996... 999,999,997... 999,999,998... 999,999,999... The gravity increases to 2500G, causing Della to scream in horrible pain and agony. She unleashes 20% of her true power and flexes all of her muscles for one last rep. Just one more push! 1,000,000,000!
Della stays up for a few seconds to flex her back muscles and then stops. Della pants and sweats beyond belief, it runs down her body and long hair, dropping to the floor and she feels her veins continuing to threaten to pop out. She breathes heavily and her hands twitch as she feels her biceps get more muscular; her 6-packs have fully turned back into 8-backs abs and her muscular back greatly enhances and become more ripped and shiny than ever.
Della: Yes…I can feel it…it's all coming back to me! I feel more powerful than ever! Suddenly the Gravity increases and Della finds herself unable to move at all. Her muscles swell with power and her veins are threatening to explode. What's…going on!? Why can't I move!?
The gravity is now at a massive 3000G and that's destroying Della's body. This combined with the dumbbells pull her body down and bones snap. Della screams in horrible anguish and it becomes louder when the barbell and kettle balls break even more of her bones. Her screams are at their loudest right now as the barbell ropes snaps off and her kettle balls and dumbbells are released they all bang on the ground and Della drops down. Her spine smashes into the barbell weights and she scream in pain. She's now writhing and crying on the ground in agony, her muscles swelling out of control.
Della: My body! Too much! It's too much! Deactivate simulation.
The gravity drops back down to one and Della is on the floor panting and groaning in pain and her body covered in bruises.
Della: I think…I just broke practically every bone in my body, including my spine. I need a Potion.
She painstakingly twists and crawls to the bench with a Potion on it. She takes it with one hand and drinks up the green liquid. It disappears and she widens her eyes as her bones get repaired and snapped. She gets up flexing her monstrous muscles as hard as she could.
Della: Man…I feel so strong! This is exactly how I felt the first time.
Della smugly takes time to flex her biceps and other muscles in every poses she think of. She puts one hand on her hip like a role model, then Della flexes her back muscles next and she sees it become even more muscular.
Della: Now I just need to crank it up even more until I get back my 10 packs!
Suddenly fatigue over takes her body and she wobbles painfully, stumbling to a wall to use as support with sweat dripping like rain.
Della: Maybe I should take a break and get back to fixing my rocket before I start torturing myself even more. I wonder…how Donald's doing.
She attempts to leave and grab her pilot uniform but she holds her head feeling dizzy and wobbling painfully. With a groan she falls back fainting and collapsing from sheer exhaustion from overly working out. She lies down on the floor for a while resting.
Back on Earth, a day after his expedition Donald has just finished setting up a hammock, tying both ends to two trees. Next to the hammock is a table with orange juice and a small juke box on it. Donald places his tape inside it and it plays some soothing music. Now all set up Donald lies on the hammock in peace and tranquillity, absorbing the quiet and relaxing atmosphere, listening to birds chirping, cricket noises and a butterfly lands on his beak. He stretches before getting out a book and beginning to read. But the heavenly atmosphere is disturbed by Huey, Webby and Violet.
Huey, Webby & Violet: Uncle Donald!
Donald shouts in surprise when they run through his hammock, spinning it and tying him up.
Donald: Careful! This was expensive!
Huey: Huey reads the card. A prescription hammock. "For moulting relating to stress."
Donald is untied and drops on his face, his hair dishevelled and he's looking quite stressed right now.
Donald: Doctor's orders. He gets up with his hat off.
Violet: You're moulting Uncle Donald?
Webby: That's ridiculous, you're not moulting. Look at that luscious head full- ooh!
Webby reels back in disgust when Donald rubs his head to present a ball of feathers that he drops to the floor.
Huey: Oooh, that's a lot of feathers.
Violet: And it seems stress will only worsen your moulting process. This kind of process takes place due to some sort of trigger. Did you have a bad dream?
Donald: Yeah, but I'd rather not talk about it. When you add that with every adventure I'm going on this happens. The doctor suggested that I take it easy and avoid any extreme activites.
Huey: Don't worry Uncle Donald. We'll give you your space so you can relax.
Webby: Webby removes a tape from a ghoulish book. Anyway, we need to borrow your old VCR so we can watch this copy of the Necronomica set, the VHS that raises the dead, the most horrifying-
Violet grabs Webby and covers her beak, muffling her voice as a sweaty Huey steps up in front to cover Webby giving away what they're really trying to do.
Huey: The horror movie from the 90's!
Violet lets go and deadpans at Webby who sheepishly throws up her hands before giddily looking back to Donald and Huey hands back the hat.
Huey: We'll take care of it, no need to worry, read your book, relax, everything's fine.
Webby: If we don't become zombies!
Violet covers beak again and Huey covers it up.
Huey: …From too much time in front of the old boom tube, 'Kay, bye!
Violet: Get well soon Uncle Donald!
They both drag Webby before she could blab out their secret. Donald who merely wants to rest doesn't even catch their pathetic attempts of lying.
Donald: Everything's fine.
He lays back down on his hammock, trying to take in the heavenly atmosphere as he gets out his book to continue reading and relaxing. Red light suddenly illuminates from the manor which catches his attention but he ignores it overall. Before he could take a sip of juice a disfigured hand emerges out of the ground near him, scaring the cricket with red light blasting out. Donald sees this and becomes comically horrified. The VHS the kids just watched have awoken zombies and Donald is panting heavily and stressfully as a multitude of zombie hands emerge around him. He quacks in fear and another emerges beneath his hammock to pluck his tail-feathers. Donald screams in pain as he bursts into the air. He stops midair and comically runs off screaming, losing more of his feathers in the process. This is going to be one stressful day…no matter how hard he tries to relax.
Contrary to Donald's stressful day, Della seems to be doing much better after getting back up from fainting. She walks through the hidden city of tranquillity with Lunaris in her torn pilot outfit and her muscles deflated to avoid attracting too much attention that will distract her. For the past weeks Lunaris has offered Della a place to stay in Tranquillity but the stubborn sister of Donald turned him down but he won't give up.
Lunaris: I do wish you would take up our offer to stay with us. It would be the perfect place to work on your ship.
Della: Della yawns with a smile. The only person I ever managed to bunk with was my brother and we fought constantly.
Lunaris: He becomes intrigued. You're brother. You said his name was Donald Duck, correct? It seems you and this brother of yours do not get along very well.
Della: Della waves her hands in denial. Oh no, Lunaris it's not like that at all. She smiles fondly over her brother. Sure, we do get into arguments and squabbles like most siblings, but in the end, Donald and I are the best of friends and we always make up. Della frowns and looks down in guilt. I just hope that we can again when I get back. We both said horrible things to each other… especially me. But I'm sure he's not the one to hold grudges for so long. He was willing to forgive me after I blamed him for Mom and Dad's deaths. She places a hand over her heart, touched. I've hurt his feelings more times than I could count and yet he always finds it in his big heart to continue loving me and giving me a chance. No matter what we do to each other, he is still the best brother I could've ever asked for and I'll always love him.
Lunaris: Interesting. It seems I may have been wrong. You and your brother seem to care about each other a great deal.
Della: The two of us have been together ever since we were born. We've been adventuring since we were 6 and as we kept getting older we got closer and closer. There were times we drifted but that ended up with the two of us becoming even closer. We don't just care about each other; we love each other so much. We're the perfect team, that's why they called us the Duck Twins. And, don't tell anyone this but the reason I like Penny so much is because she reminds me a lot about my brother.
Lunaris: Lunaris become surprised. Is that so? Why does Penumbra remind you of your brother?
Della: Protective, caring so much about her people, amazing willpower… She chuckles a little. …Practically angry at the world, those are the qualities my brother has and they were ones that make me admire him so much. Looking at Penny makes me remember how much I love and miss Donald and motivates me even more to go back to him and patch things up.
Lunaris: Interesting. So that's why you're fond of Penumbra. Regardless, are you sure you don't want to say here. It's much better than sleeping out in the waste.
Della: Oh, I'm not sleeping. She becomes determined. I am THIS close to patching up my ship and getting home to my family. I just need a little…more…gold…
Her speech falters as she chews the horrible gum and is stood in front of something releasing a gold shine. She is in awe of giant statues of Lunaris and Penumbra posing with weapons.
Della: Is that Penny!?
Lunaris: Penumbra was our greatest warrior. He proudly and admiringly clenches his fist. Together we held the Mites at bay. She is a hero of the Planet Moon.
Della: …Which is technically not a planet so…Moon Moon.
Penumbra: PLANET MOON!
Penumbra dives down, surprising Della by grabbing her by her metal ankle and holding her upside down, though the pilot is oblivious to her hatred.
Della: Oh, hi Penny.
Penumbra: PENUMBRA!
Della: Oh, is it moon custom to yell? HOWDY PENNY!
Lunaris: Forgive Penumbra. Since the Mites stopped attacking she is a warrior with no war to fight.
Della: Look who's got an extended vacai', huh? What're you going to do?
Penumbra: Penumbra drops her with a sneer. Seethe.
Della: Della gets up smiling and walking away. Sounds fun! Better get back to work, the Spear of Selene's not gonna rebuild itself.
Penumbra: Yes, go back to your mysterious project; I am definitely not suspicious of you. She chuckles before bringing out her blaster. She's a liar, lets blast her.
Lunaris: Lunaris chuckles a little. I spy the Green-eyed monster of jealousy.
Penumbra: I'm not jealous! She turns in anger. She's trying to convince you all she's your friend to distract you from some devious attack.
Lunaris: Penumbra, come with me.
Penumbra follows her general up the statues until they reach the top. She sees Lunaris stare at the blue sphere that is Earth.
Lunaris: See that rock. My father, General Meridian was terrified of it, claiming to have seen mysterious objects launched off it. He was so afraid that he drove us into hiding underground which allowed the Mites to become a problem in the first place. They look to Della who's grabbing rocks of gold, stuffing them in a sack and getting sleepy. Does Della look like a threat to you?
Penumbra: No. She's squishy and easily defeatable if you would just let me!
Lunaris: I will not spend my life in fear of them Penumbra. Our people will see that in time, so will you.
Penumbra: He jumps off, followed by Penumbra. I tell you she will not rest until she wreaks havoc on our planet.
Lunaris points down with a smirk and contrary to her belief, Della is sleeping and snoring on her sack, the lack of rest having finally gotten to her. Lunaris sighs in pity.
Lunaris: Poor thing. Penumbra, she's staying with you. And with that he walks off. That's an order.
Penumbra is confused and at the same time incredibly unhappy about this arrangement; looks like she won't be resting for a while.
Speaking of being unable to rest, things are hectic outside McDuck Manor. The skies turned red and a swarm of duck zombies are chasing Huey, Webby and Violet. The three of them are screaming in horror as they run for their lives from the relentless zombies. Webby and Violet run ahead screaming louder and Huey trips. He quickly picks up his JWG and catches up with girls. The zombies chasing them stops when Donald protectively steps up with a chainsaw whirring in his hand.
Donald: Touch my kids and I'll make sure you undead freaks die twice.
A large zombie bows through his companions but Donald cuts it in half across his torso. It gasps as its upper body comically flies through the air and lands on the ground. Donald sees the legs crumble much to his delight. More zombies approach him and he tosses his chainsaw, cutting impaling through them in the process.
Donald: I warned you! Now you'll fall by my sword!
He summons Caballeros Blade and gets into a fighting stance. The army of zombies rush him and it's a repeat of his fight with Surtur's minions. Donald using expert swords skills to slice the zombies apart, he punches one's head off, upper slashes another, impales a third through the head before kicking it into other zombies, successively slashes 3 more zombies and his sword glows with blue energy for him to slice the air and send an energy blade the vaporizes more zombies. 20 of them pile on him but with impressive strength he blows them all away before sending out another energy blade.
Donald: Kids! How do we get rid of these things!? He elbows one without even looking back.
Huey and Violet are skimming through the JWG as the kids continue running from more zombies.
Violet: There should be a page in the Junior Woodchuck Guidebook that contains a spell to send zombies back to the world of the dead.
Huey: It should be in here somewhere!
Donald: Hurry up and find it so I can relax!
Donald punches more, spin kicks another and slashes more zombies to pieces until he suddenly gets tackled by the upper body of the first zombie he cut in half, causing him to lose more feathers, his hat and sword.
As they run Huey finally finds the page he's looking for. They stop running for him to give the chant desperately. When it finishes the zombie chasing after them halts inches away. The sky turns back to blue and the zombie disappears underground. Donald frantically tries to escape his half-zombie which has its hand clasped on its head until it gets buried too. Donald quacks with joy, only for the hand to remain clasping onto him and he struggles to escape much to his dismay. All of the zombies disappear, prompting the kids to jump and exclaim in celebration.
Webby: That was awesome!
Huey: We're alive!
Violet: That was am unpleasantly thrilling experience!
They sheepishly watch Donald walk up to them with the hand latched on his head. He dismisses his sword and is an slump panting heavily in stress.
Huey: See, I told you everything was fine. Get back to rest.
Donald takes the hand off and in the process loses the feathers of his head, making him bald in the process and now his whole body is ruffled but he waves his hands in assurance to calm down.
Donald: Everything's fine.
Seeing that he can't rest with Huey, Violet and Webby performing these stunt he gets the hammock and his tape, dragging the former across the grass. The kids watch, seeing a handprint on the back of his head.
Scenes shift to the houseboat where Donald pokes his head out of the main pipe, followed up by moving along the wall and checking to see if the coast is clear. He lies on his hammock tied at both ends of his boat panting. When he sees no kids in sight he sighs in relief and moves his front hair back to cover his bald spot. He prepares to relax until Dewey pipes up, comically waking up the Mage of Thunder.
Dewey: Guess who's a god now.
Donald lifts himself up to turn and see Dewey flying upside down from wearing brown winged Greek Sandals. He presents them proudly to his uncle before flying around while casually leaning back. Donald's eyes almost bulge out of their sockets when he sees the last person he wanted to see on the day of his relaxation…Storkules.
Donald: Oh no…
Storkules: Intrepid Dewey bravely seized the Sandals of Hermes from my chest and is now… He gives an epic salute. Messenger of the Gods! In response lightning roars down, setting fire to a tree. Father is most displeased.
Dewey: Um, he's just jealous because I'm the youngest Dewey-ty on the block.
In response to that multiple bolts of lightning roar from the sky around the houseboat, rocking Donald's home as he shakes Storkules holds Dewey.
Storkules: Father has declared war on Dewey Duck.
Donald: WHAT!?
Donald faints in shock and Dewey cringes when he flies over to see more feathers fly out of him, realizing he's moulting when he grabs one.
Dewey: Yeesh. Don't worry Uncle Donald, you just rest; we totally got this!
Dewey and Storkules fly off to do battle with Zeus, avoiding his lightning bolts as Storkules hangs onto Dewey.
Dewey: Ow! The lightning burns!
The Mage of Thunder gets electrocuted by a lightning bolt before bouncing in the water.
(Timeskip)
Due to the roommate arrangements made between her and Della, Penumbra's hatred towards Donald's sister has increased more than ever.
Della continues working on her rocket. Using some new equipment she ties up the tip of the Spear of Selene in a lot of strong rope before spinning and tossing it to a part of the statue. She pulls on the rope and pulls up the rocket part as hard as she could in her normal state, not wanting to drag too much attention by using her new super strength. Penumbra suspiciously watches from the shadows.
Penumbra: Treacherous imposter, no one's falling for your Earth ways.
A male Moonlander called Gibbous emerges, interested in Della.
Gibbous: You're the stranger that saved us with your Earth ways. Hey Zenith!
A taller female Moonlander walks up clutching her hand.
Zenith: A true hero living right next door. Count my lucky stars.
Della runs up the gold placing her hand on her hips and the couple walk up to her.
Gibbous: I heard you beat the Mite with compassion. Is that some fancy Earth fighting technique?
Della: Della pulls on the rope again with a smile. No, no. I'm just a Mom trying to get home to see her kids.
Gibbous and Zenith are almost in tears from hearing Della goal and everything they've done for them.
Gibbous: You gave us so much!
Zenith: We would be honoured to help you in any way!
Della: Really!? Thanks!
They pull the top part of the rocket together, making thing easier for Della and Penumbra angrier.
Penumbra: Has everyone gone crazy!? Why are you helping her!? UGH!
(Timeskip)
Della fixes up her rocket which is getting close to completion she regales and tells tales of her adventures to Gibbous, Zenith and another female purple coloured Moonlander called Meredith. She also talks about Earth's cultures and wonders, introducing the slapping bracelet which she slaps on Meredith's wrist. As the Moonlanders love her more and the wonders of Earth Penumbra becomes furious and makes unsuccessful attempts to make the Moon seem superior, only succeeding in scaring her people when she tries to blast Della.
Della: Earth is beautiful! Della grabs some gold and climbs up the ladder. It'll be like I never left. We'll conquer Mount Neverest! Discover the Hidden Pyramid of Toth-ra! I'm telling you, my family, especially my Twin Brother, Donald is Fearless!
Contrary to that statement, her "fearless" brother is screaming and cowering in fear as Storkules prepares to slingshot him with his hammock. The skies darken with clouds and Donald and Storkules barely avoid getting blasted by lightning from an angry Zeus in his cloud.
Zeus: Foolish son! Inviting mortals into the PANTHEON!
Storkules: Father, they're my friends! Please cease your wrath!
Another lightning bolt is blasted and Donald attempts to leave.
Donald: Uh, uh! Donald, out!
Just as he prepares to walk out Dewey's recklessness stops him as the blue loving duck flies with cockiness in front of the boat.
Dewey: I shall face my fellow God in a matter befitting Olympus. He flies around Zeus at supersonic speed, smirking with his hands on his hips. Hey, Beardo! You stink!
Zeus: No! He summons a lightning javelin. You do!
Dewey dodges the toss and flies around Zeus, invoking his anger more. This prompts Donald to raise his fearless courage, summon Save the Queen and get on his hammock to let Storkules use him as a projectile out of love and protection for his nephew.
Donald: Go! Go! GO!
Storkules fires away and Donald is a launched at the King of the Gods with a cry of fear. He shakes his head to shrug it off and aims his staff as he flies at Zeus.
Outside Tranquillity Penumbra vents out her frustration by throwing her spear at a rock with a poor drawing of Della on it. She takes it out, gets at the right distance and shouts in anger before tossing her spear harder. She hears shouting from her people.
Penumbra: She sprung her trap!
She runs back to the city, expecting Della killing her people but what's really happening is that people are gathered around the Spear of Selene listening to more of Della's stories as she fixes the spear. Even Gibbous, Zenith, Meredith and other Moonlanders are pitching in to fix up her ride home.
Della: The gargantuan Gilded Man tore through El Dorado… Everyone gasps as Penumbra climbs above them. …Annihilating everything in it's path like: She gives a ghastly roar while putting two wires together, scaring the people. But me and my brother looked the bionic behemoth square in its cold unfeeling eyes! The two of climbed up its craggy armour, burst inside, tore him apart from within, bringing his tyrannical, mechanical reign to AN END!
The people loudly applaud Della, erupting with cheers and the workers stop what they're doing to admire her. Zenith lifts up her goggles with a chuckle.
Zenith: Ooh! Nothing that exciting ever happens in Tranquillity!
Penumbra: Penumbra speaks from the statue spear. That's why it's called Tranquillity, not Robot Monster Town!
Meredith: Ooh! Is there a Robot Monster Town on Earth!?
Della: Not once I'm done with it!
She gives a wink and Penumbra prepares to throw her spear only for Lunaris to grab it from behind with disappointment.
Lunaris: Penumbra. Your orders were to see that our guest has a pleasant stay. I don't think getting speared would be very pleasant, do you?
Penumbra: No. She then sheepishly admits the truth. Just a little.
Lunaris: No harm is to come to Della.
Penumbra: But she is filling their heads with Earth lies and making me…I-I mean us, the Moon seem inferior by comparison!
Lunaris: She's sharing the wonders of her culture, like this rocket. He gives back the Gold Spear and with a smile leads Penumbra to the cockpit. So intricate, yet so simple, why all she has to do is flip this little switch and it will launch the Spear right into space! He deviously aims his gaze at the Emergency Launch switch. Remarkable! You have to think about the big picture Penumbra.
He walks off and listens to Zenith ask a question Della will definitely enjoy answering.
Zenith: We'd like to know something, Della. This Donald you speak off...who is he exactly?
Della: Della stops everything and practically burst with happiness over talking about her brother. Glad you asked! He's my twin brother, older by five minutes. In fact, he's my best friend! The greatest I could ever ask for! The two of us have been together ever since we were born! We've been adventuring since we were 6 and it was so much fun! Donald has always been there for me, looking out for me and protecting me. He's the best brother a girl like me could ask for.
Some Moonlanders are touched by the bond between Donald and Della.
Meredith: You and your brother must really love each other.
Della: You bet we do! I love him more than anything in the world. Donald really cares about me. She places a hand over her heart thinking about her brother. Whenever we're in danger, he always saves me. When I'm down, he always cheers me up. When I get sick he's always there to talk with and look after me. I try to return the favour whenever he's in the same position as me. Donald is the best thing that ever happened to me... aside from my boys of course. Despite his temper and greed for treasure, he's strong, brave, kind, and the most heroic guy I've ever known in my life! As we got out of the Gilded Man I fell down and it tried to kill me as it was dying. But Donald came to my rescue and saved me from getting crushed. We were almost buried under that thing's giant hand as it shutdown. I have to admit… Della becomes a little anxious. I was pretty terrified after that.
The crowd gasps in shock and Penumbra becomes intrigued.
Gibbous: You!? Scared!? But that can't be!
Della: It's true! I was pretty scared…to have almost died like that… She then gives off a touched smile. But as I was crying Donald hugged me and did his best to comfort me. She becomes guilty. I said a lot of awful and horrible things to him after our parents died. She smiles widely once more. But despite that he forgave me and I'll never forget that. He's the greatest Duck ever and I'm proud to be his sister!
Moonlanders: AWW! The Moonlanders are close to tears after hearing this.
Zenith: How sweet!
Meredith: Now I want to meet your brother one day!
Gibbous: It sounds like he's just as big a hero as you are!
Della: Oh! You have no idea! Donald isn't just as big a hero as I am! He's an even bigger hero than I am. If you thought I was crazy strong when I fought that Moon Mite, wait 'till you see that my brother is far stronger and way more powerful than me! And not just physically; he has amazing willpower, the kind no one on Earth could ever have. I'm telling you, Nothing can Stop Donald Duck!
Speaking of Donald, back on Earth he, Dewey and Storkules have just defeated Zeus. The King of Gods pants in exhaustion before turning to escape.
Zeus: I'm counting this as a win.
The sky turns back to normal. Dewey lands back on the boat stylishly and gracefully while Donald hits his beak. Storkules walks over to hold him upside down in a massive hug and Dewey looks at his favourite Uncle proudly.
Storkules: Oh, Aerodynamic Donald who knew your bold brand of goodness could be matched only by your-
The last thing he needs is a bone crushing hug so Donald slips out, picks his hammock and stressfully leaves Storkules and Dewey worried.
Donald: Gotta rest! Everything's fine!
Donald manages to find another grassy area and ties his hammock to two trees.
Mickey: Hiya Donald.
Donald shouts and quacks in terror, hiding in the hammock much to the shock of Mickey, Goofy, Minnie and Daisy, all whom are wearing their casual primary outfits.
Goofy: Gawrsh!
Daisy: Quackers!
Minnie: Oh dear!
Mickey: WHOA! Take it easy Donald! It's just us!
Donald doesn't listen and is shaking in terror much to their concern.
Daisy: Uh oh…something tells me Donald hasn't been able to get much relaxation. Daisy comes up and takes Donald's hand with a kind smile. Donald, calm down. Just take deep breath.
Donald takes a deep breath and is finally able to process seeing his best friends.
Donald: Mickey, Minnie, Goofy. What are you guys doing here?
Mickey: We came here to see you pal?
Minnie: Are you doing okay Donald?
Donald: Donald sits on the hammock sighing in sadness and stress. Not really. Today's been really stressful.
Goofy: The four of them give Donald their sympathy. We can tell just by looking at ya.
Mickey: Gosh, Donald, what's happening to you? You seem to be losing all your feathers.
Daisy: He is. Daisy turns to them. He's going through a moulting process.
Goofy: Goofy is obviously clueless. Gee, what does moulting mean?
Minnie: Goofy, moulting is the process of losing old feathers or fur and they get replaced with new ones.
Mickey: Is that what you're going through Donald?
Donald: Yeah, I had a doctor check up on me yesterday. Apparently I've been going on so many adventures lately the stress of it all is beginning to make my feathers fall apart.
Daisy: Donald's feathers will grow back but in order for the moulting process to go healthily he needs to avoid any extreme activities and rest for the whole day. That means no adventure and no fighting.
Minnie: So you need to relax and avoid pushing yourself.
Donald: And that's exactly what I've been trying to avoid but wherever I go no matter how much I try to rest and enjoy myself adventure always find me. Huey, Webby and Violet had awaked zombies so I had to help fight them and Dewey made Zeus really mad.
The rest of the Fabulous Five can't help but feel sorry for Donald.
Goofy: Gawrsh. It's like you're some sort of adventuring magnet.
Donald: Gee, ya think.
Minnie: Oh, Donald that's terrible.
Daisy: He can't keep this up you guys. Donald needs to rest. The four of them walk up to Donald as he lies on the hammock.
Mickey: Tell you what Donald, the four of us will stay with you here and make sure you get some rest.
Donald: Donald is surprised. Really!? You'd really do that for me!?
The entire gang smile brightly and kindly.
Goofy: Why sure we would.
Minnie: After all, the 5 of us are best friends. And best friends always look out for one another.
Daisy: Daisy compassionately takes Donald's hand. Don't worry Donald. We'll make sure to make this moulting process go smoothly.
Donald: Donald smiles gratefully. You guys are the best! He then spots something behind. Huh?
A black blob appears and Neoshadow jumps out of the ground to slash Daisy, much to his shock.
Donald: Look out!
He casts a Thunder spell and everyone turns in surprise to see a Neoshadow behind them get destroyed by a bolt of lightning.
Mickey: A Heartless!
Goofy: They're still around!
Pete: You bet they are! And once again they're serving us!
Everyone looks to see a cloud of blue smoke appear, revealing King Mickey's old nemesis, Pete much to their dismay and surprise as he laughs evilly.
Fabulous Five: PETE!
Pete: Well, well, look who it is. If it isn't boat boy, angry bird, goofball, girl mouse and girl duck.
Daisy: We have names you know!?
Minnie: You have some nerve coming here again, especially since I banished you!
Pete: It's not like that little Cornerstone of yours affects me.
Mickey: Unfortunately it doesn't since you originally came from our world.
Goof: We haven't seen you since that stuff in Olympus!
Donald: What are you doing here you Big Fat Palooka!?
Pete: Pete acts mockingly casual. Oh nothing special. I just spotted you nimrods coming here to the mansion and I thought I'd have a little fun.
Minnie: Why don't you have your fun elsewhere!?
Mickey: Can't you see Donald's trying to rest!
Goofy: You oughta find something nicer to do Pete!
Pete: He tents his hands together. Oh, but I think this is way better. And I love the idea of worsening a moulting process.
Donald: Donald and Daisy grit their teeth in hatred. I hate you…
Daisy: You're really sick, you know that Pete.
Pete: I do my best. HEARTLESS SQUAD! ROUND UP!
A swarm of Neoshadows appear all around the Fabulous Five. Donald lies in his hammock panting in exasperation while the others get in offensive stances. Mickey summons Kingdom Key W, Goofy summons Save the King, Minnie summons Queen Sabre and Daisy summons Royal Sabre.
Daisy: Donald! You rest here!
Goofy: We can handle these guys!
They all charge at the Heartless together while Donald could only watch his friends fight. However the increasing swarm of Heartless are proving to be a problem and he grits his teeth in anger to see Pete chuckling sadistically. He lifts himself off his hammock in rage.
Donald: Aww, phooey! I'll never be able to relax with all this going on!
He leaps off his hammock to join his friends, summoning Save the Queen and Caballeros Blade much to the shock of Daisy, Mickey, Minnie and Goofy.
Mickey: Donald! What are you doing!?
Minnie: Donald, we can handle this!
Goofy: Yeah, you need to rest pal!
Donald: Forget rest!
Daisy: But Donald! What about your moulting!?
Donald: Just watching you guys fight while I relax is already stressful enough! I can't just abandon you guys! You'd all do the same! Donald smiles. It's like you said Minnie, best friends always look out for one another!
The rest of the gang smile along with him and Mickey and Minnie chuckle a little.
Minnie: You got me there.
Mickey: That's true.
Daisy: In that case, let's finish this up quickly.
Donald: I'll relax a lot better once we get rid of these guys!
Pete: You won't be relaxing at all!
Pete brings out his bombs and charges with his Neoshadows. Donald, Daisy, Mickey, Goofy and Minnie all charge too and jump at Pete and the Heartless while giving off loud battle cries.
Back in the wastelands Penumbra continues spying on Della, seeing the workout dome covered in the gold forcefield through her binoculars in suspicion.
Penumbra: What are you up to in there?
Della is once again wearing her workout clothes, pushing her body until it breaks. Her hair is in a ponytail position. Della has the gravity doubled to 6000G and as she stands in one spot lifting up the massive machine weighing 10,000,000kg this time and both are increasing. She struggles to stand on two feet as she growls monstrously, veins threatening to explode from her body, face and eyes more than ever and she stands in a puddle of her sweat as it runs down her toned, shiny, muscular body. Her shredded 8-pack abs have returned, her biceps are muscular and sculpted and her back muscles are insanely ripped and have unbelievable definition. They bulk up as Della slowly lifts the machine repeatedly despite the body crushing conditions.
Della: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26...999,994, 999,995, 999,996, 999,997, 999,998, 999,999, 1,000,000, 1,000,001, 1,000,002, 1,000,003, 1,000,004, 1,000,005, 1,000,006, 1,000,007, 1,000,008, 1,000,009, 1,000,010, 1,000,011... 4,999,989, 4,999,990, 4,999,991, 4,999,992, 4,999,993, 4,999,994, 4,999,995, 4,999,995, 4,999,996, 4,999,997, 4,999,998, 4,999,999, 5,000,000, 5,000,001, 5,000,002, 5,000,003, 5,000,004, 5,000,005, 5,000,006, 5,000,007, 5,000,008… 7,880,000, 7,880,001, 7,880,002, 7,880,003, 7,880,004… 9,999,985… 9,999,986… 9,999,987… 9,999,988… 9,999,989… 9,999,990… 9,999,991… 9,999,992… 9,999,993… 9,999,994… 9,999,995… 9,999,996… 9,999,997… 9,999,998… 9,999,999… 10,000,000! Della stays up for 1 hour flexing her ripped back and biceps as hard as she could. Need to keep going until I reach 1 billion! 10,000,001, 10,000,002, 10,000,003, 10,000,004, 10,000,005, 10,000,006, 10,000,007, 10,000,008, 10,000,009... 55,000,766, 55,000,767, 55,000,768, 55,000,769, 55,000,770, 55,000,771, 55,000,772... 99,999,994, 99,999,995, 99,999,996, 99,999,997, 99,999,998, 99,999,999, 100,000,000, 100,000,001, 100,000,002, 100,000,003... And eventually… 650,000,778, 650,000,779, 650,000,780, 650,000,781, 650,000,782, 650,000,783, 650,000,784, 650,000,785, 650,000,786… 999,999,989... 999,999,990... 999,999,991... 999,999,992... 999,999,993... 999,999,994... 999,999,995... 999,999,996... 999,999,997... 999,999,998... 999,999,999... 1,000,000,000!
Della keeps the giant machine high above her head and feels her muscles bulk up uncontrollably and her veins still show and sweat drops from everywhere around her body. She roars in fury and agony loudly in her struggles.
Della: MORE! I CAN DO MORE! I can feel myself getting stronger!
She places one hand behind her back and tries to keep the machine lifted with one hand. The machine begins crushing her again and Della screams in horrible pain and agony as she drops to her knees. The machine now weighs 100,000,000kg and the gravity is at 7000G. Della continues screaming in pain.
Della: I…must be STRONG! WHY…CAN'T I SURPASS…DONALD!?
She grabs the machine with two hands again, her 20% true power re-activating. She becomes surrounded in brown fiery aura and the band holding her ponytail burns off as she slowly lifts the machine, standing on two feet again. Her back muscles and biceps bulk and her 8-pack abs turn into shredded 10-packs. She growls as she full stands holding the machine up, weighing a massive 1 billion kg now and causing it to begin to short circuit. Della's veins and muscles threaten to explode as the aura around her grows larger and muscles become more ripped. With a the loudest roar she could give off Della lifts the machine high above her head and completely rips the machine in half with a shout. Della throws the two halves and they smash into the wall. As the aura swirls around her and her eyes glow bright brown, Della stands tall, her back is filled with unbelievable definition, her biceps are sculpted, her abs are absolutely ripped and her body is completely toned in sweat. Della groans in pain as she feels her muscles bulk up uncontrollably and she tries to control.
Della: NO! THIS TIME…I MUST…CONTROL…MY STRENGTH!
She releases a loud roar that releases a massive explosion of energy from her body that obliterates all the equipment.
Outside the forcefield disintegrates and the workout dome completely explodes. Penumbra shields her face and when it subsides she gasps to see the dome has collapsed into piles of scrap metal.
Penumbra: By Selene!
Della emerges from the piles of scrap metal injured and bruised and her hair dishevelled, though her muscles remain.
Della: Ow! Well…guess that's end of that…
She shouts in pain from the sting of wounds. She spots an Elixir (given by the Moonlanders) nearby and crawls out over to it. She takes the bottle and sips in the liquid. She widens her eyes as she feels all injuries, cuts and bruises disappear. She gets up holding up her arms and flexing every one of her muscles with enjoyment.
Della: OH YEAH! STRONG! I FEEL MORE RIPPED AND MUSCULAR THAN EVER! I SERIOUSLY CAN'T WAIT TO SHOW THIS TO MY BOYS! She flexes so hard her veins appear all around her sweaty physique. GRR!
She then looks around the remains of the workout chamber. She puts her hands on her hips and her muscles deflate, turning her back to normal.
Della: Well, looks like I won't be working out anymore. Guess that's fine since my ride home is almost finished. I better change up.
Della proceeds to head back to Tranquillity and Penumbra had watched the whole thing in rage.
Penumbra: So that's your game? Training to defeat me in combat, eh? Well, it doesn't matter how strong you get or how muscular you are, you'll never defeat me!
