Louie didn't know what to expect when they landed on Ithaquack. He wasn't in his right mind they climbed off the ship. Rockerduck behind Louie who was behind Timothy who was carrying a gun. Like Louie was the one to be protected from the Gods and Goddess that lived there instead of the other way around...
Louie tried to think of several scenarios that could best handle this situation, but all that only lead to horrible images of what could happen after all those scenarios went down and if he had the guts to do any of them.
Those images were what kept him from doing anything stupid, at least, until -.
"I, I can't do this..." Louie squeaked out once they made it up to the stone steps of the stone temple. He stood frozen between Rockerduck who Louie heard chuckle and Timothy who merely cocked his gun, making Louie's heart thudded hard against his chest.
"Guessing that girlfriend of yours isn't worth it to you anymore?" Rockerduck snickered at him.
"Lena's everything to me! You, you dumb ass!" Louie spat at him, making him whirl around and glare at him.
He lifted up his foot and kicked Louie into the sand, hard, making sand fly into Louie's face and eyes and making them water. Louie groaned as he struggled to get back up but froze when he found the barrel of a gun in his face. Timothy smirking at him as he looked at him through the scope of it. Rockerduck leaned forward close to Louie enough to where Louie can feel his hot breath across the back of his neck making Louie tremble slightly.
"Strike two. Llewellyn." Rockerduck hissed. "Now, get up, before I have Timothy here use that gun on you, and it won't be to shoot you with bullets if you get my drift. Fuck Toy." He barked out more loudly, making Louie's face turn bright red at the comment. He could only image what Rockerduck had in mind on how Timothy would and could use the gun on him, and his stomach knotted in fear as he slowly got up to his feet.
Rockerduck snorted in approval.
"Right, now, everyone into position. We are here." Rockerduck said, he glanced back at Gandra Dee, and Mark Beaks who nodded at him encouragingly, avoiding looking at Louie all together, while Timothy went on ahead of them.
Louie felt a lump form in his throat. He wanted to cry. To curl up in a ball and bury himself in the sand they were trudging on and up to the stone temple where he knew Zeus, Storkules, and Selene lived. Out of the corner of his eye he saw Gandra Dee and Mark Beaks slip away to get ready for the second phase of the plan once he, Rockerduck, and Timothy took care of the Gods and Goddess.
Louie was pushed forward ahead of Timothy who knocked on the door for him then he, and Rockerduck hid behind one of the stone pillars just as the doors opened and Storkules poked his head out from behind the door. He looked around for before finally settling his eyes
"Louie? What brings you here?" He asked.
Before Louie could even get a word out, or even try and warn him, a Timothy jumped out from behind his pillar, and shot a bullet straight at Storkules. Storkules eyes widen and quickly clamped his hands together.
Louie blinked.
Did he actually catch the bullet?
Did Timothy actually think a simple bullet could wound a God?
He glanced back at the pig who was smirking at Louie. Louie then winced when Storkules let out a howl. Louie looked back at him sharply and noticed his hands were molting as if the bullet itself was scorching his hands.
"W, What -?" Louie stammered as Timothy came up beside him and cocked his gun again.
"Atomically Magnetically Magical Orbs." He told him. "Or A. M M.O for short. Gandra Dee and Mark Beaks came up with these." He added. "They can wound any sort of magical deity or object within seconds after contact. "
Louie stared at him.
So, that explained Gandra Dee and Mark Beaks. He had heard how they once worked together to get a secret code from Fenton back when they were kids by Huey. Would also explain the team up too.
"What is the meaning of this? Young Donald?" Storkules choked out as he fell to his knees.
Louie opened his mouth to speak but was yet forced to stop when Timothy shoved him into Storkules making Louie feel very sick to his stomach as a force started to pull and and tug at the both of them. Rockerduck stood back and watched in amusement as Storkules started to fall to the floor and go limp as his power was sucked out of him by Louie.
Louie forced himself to remain calm as the feeling of being tugged and pulled against his will kept jumbling his insides. He could feel his own inner self being pushed back making room for Storkules power instead, and he felt foggy afterwards.
He could hardly stand and he felt someone's hand grip his arm to keep him from falling. He glanced up and groaned when it turned out to be Rockerduck.
"Now?" Timothy asked, eagerly, as he brought out his knife that he had showed Louie back on the ship. Timothy's eyes gleamed when he saw the horrified look on Louie's face.
"I believe you may have to wait a bit longer, Tim." Rockerduck said, when a second pair of doors opened and Zeus and Selene barged in.
"What is the meaning of this -?" Zeus roared. He snapped his fingers and a lighting bolt appeared in his hand. He was about to throw it at them when he noticed the limb body in front of him. "S, Storkules?"
Storkules groaned, and his eyes that had been closed suddenly fluttered open. He looked up at his father and Zeus saw at once that what had happen and howled with rage as he turned with fire in his eyes towards Louie, Rockerduck, and Timothy.
"You've made a big mistake taking us on." He snarled at them and shot a lighting bolt at Timothy who dodged it and shot another bullet towards Zeus. Selene made a swift motion towards her father and blocked it letting it hit her instead of Zeus.
"NO!" Both Louie and Zeus shouted.
Without thinking Louie rushed up to them, Rockerduck letting him go with a satisfied smile across his face.
Timothy took that moment to shot Zeus next before the King of the Gods had any time to process what was happening and he to cried out in agony.
Before Louie could stop himself he felt that tug and pull again and he felt Selene and Zeus's power surge through him and he yelped in pain at the force colliding within him against Storkules. He fell to the floor and clinched his side.
Both Selene and Zeus were on the floor, unable to move, and groaning in pain.
Rockerduck went up to Louie and knelt down examining him.
"Hmmm. Seems there are still some side effects to the serum." He said to Timothy as Timothy walked up from behind him.
"This worked out well though," Timothy pointed out. "Now, can I have my fun?"
Rockerduck sighed then nodded as he saw Gandra Dee and Mark Beaks come running back, out of breath, and without the Papyrus Scroll.
"What happened?" Rockerduck asked.
Gandra Dee glanced up at him then looked around, her face grief stricken when she saw the poor young duck on the floor in pain, and the three deities in the same manner.
"C, Couldn't get through..." Mark Beaks panted. "S,Stupid magical barrier has a password -."
Rockerduck growled and suddenly grabbed Louie by the feathers on top of his head.
"Did you know about this?" He snarled at him.
Louie whimpered hysterically as his head throbbed with pain and he shook his head.
"Likely story. You know what this means now, don't you Llewellyn?" Rockerduck snickered at him.
Louie started to cry pitifully as the golden collar around his neck started to do something new. It started to shrink against his skin, almost choking him. Rockerduck smirked at him and slowly let go as he looked over at Timothy.
"Now, you may kill them." He told him. "I'll be back on the ship, reporting to Doofus and waiting." He glanced back down at Louie. "Enjoy the show, Llewellyn." He taunted and turned on his boots and left, Gandra Dee and Mark Beaks following close behind.
"Now then," Timothy said, once they were gone and it was just him, Louie, and the three deities. He tapped the end of his knifes blade to his fat chin thoughtfully before turning to Louie who was having a hard time breathing at this point. He opened his mouth and tried to suck in some air but that only made it worse and the collar around his neck started to shrink even fast. "You know, I could stop that -." He said, as he rounded around towards Zeus. "But then, that would make this even less fun. For me." He told him.
Zeus stared up at the pig in awe, fear, and anger, wondering just how this could have happened. Timothy raised his dagger and Louie closed his eyes as he plunged it down onto his chest. Louie heard the God gag on his own blood that had turned mortal after Louie had sucked his power in.
Louie slowly opened his eyes when Zeus quieted down and winced when Timothy cut off his head and tossed it towards him. Louie whimpered when Zeus's wide frozen eyes stared back at him. He continued to stare at the dead God as Timothy began cutting the arms and legs next and tossing them around Louie making Louie flinch.
Next, Timothy went to Storkules who pleaded with not Timothy but Louie who had to cover his ears and close his eyes as he began to scream in agony when Timothy bashed his head in with the end of the gun he was still holding. Storkules yelped and Timothy did the exact same thing to him as his father. All tossing his body limbs around Louie, who at this point could barely breath and was hugging himself into a tight ball so that none of the now mortal body parts could touch him.
"L, Louie." Selene stammered.
Louie stopped whimpering and slowly looked over at her pass the body parts.
Timothy grabbed her by the hair and pressed a knife to her neck.
Louie choked back a sob.
Not Selene.
Not Mom's best friend.
"No." Louie said. He made himself get up. Timothy glanced over at him, dumbfounded by the fact that Louie had the nerve to interrupt his fun.
"Leave her alone. Let her leave. Please." Louie begged. Looking at Timothy, avoiding Selene's wide and frighten eyes.
Timothy snickered.
"You got guts kid, I can give you that. But why should I?" Timothy asked.
"B, Because..." Louie said, thinking quickly. "After, After I defeat Doofus, and trust me," Louie said, forcing himself to ignore the pain in his lungs as he talked.
The collar still shrinking to the point where it could cut of his circulation in his neck. He wondered if the collar would indeed snap his neck if it got to that point, but Louie pushed that thought aside. If Doofus had wanted him dead like that, he would have been dead already.
No.
Doofus wanted him alive.
He knew that much.
"I will defeat Doofus. I, I'll give you whatever you want. Just, Just let her go." Louie told him.
Timothy thought for a moment, then, a smile slowly spread across his face.
"Anything I want?" Timothy asked.
Louie nodded.
Timothy looked down at Selene who was trembling all over, then over at Louie, an idea forming in his mind.
"Okay." He said finally. "Let's make a blood oat then."
He kept hold on Selene as he moved his dagger away from her throat and to his palm. He sliced it and didn't even flinch when blood started seeping out. He then walked over to Louie, who side stepped the body parts, and grabbed his hand and sliced that as well before clamping their palms together.
"You!" Timothy barked at Selene who jumped at the sound of his raised voice. "Recite the line." He ordered.
Selene hesitated, then looked over at Louie who nodded encouragingly at her.
"Let it be said, from this day on, these two... Louie Duck and..." She looked at Timothy.
"Timothy Jenkins." Timothy told her.
"T, Timothy Jenkins will hens forth be known as blood brothers from this day forward. Shall you break this oath for any reason have you a cursed life and in death." She said. "So it is done..."
"So it shall be." Both Louie and Timothy said, and both watched as golden strings surrounded their hands before soaking into their blood.
"Nice. Now," Timothy said, and let go of Selene's hair and pushed her roughly into Louie who almost stumbled backwards. "Get going." He snarled at her.
Selene scrambled up off Louie and whispered something in his ear in Greek that oddly Louie could understand. It gave him hope and as he gently pushed her forward towards the door. Because what she told him was something of but four words translated into English as...
All is not lost.
Louie felt his collar start to loosen suddenly and he gasped out for air as Timothy cleaned himself up and his weapon and slung his gun over his shoulder.
"You know I'll have to explain how Selene got away." Timothy told him.
Louie said nothing.
"You know what that would mean." Timothy persisted.
Louie nodded slowly.
"Strike three." Louie muttered.
Timothy scoffed as he and Louie headed out of the temple towards the ship.
"Not a word about this to anyone. Louie." Timothy growled once they got to the ship. Louie looked up towards Rockerduck who after Timothy told him what happened with Selene only smiled wickedly back at him, and turned to his phone again, "Or I won't hesitated to go back on this. I'm already living a cursed life what's one more in death for me?" He asked him.
Louie pondered on what he said as they climbed back on the ship . Louie hung himself over the side of the ship as it started to depart Ithaquack with only the horrible images of what had happened inside the temple and the screams still echoing within Louie as well as the deities powers surging through him never giving him a moment of peace.
