Ducktales Season 2 Episode 34 – Whatever Happened to Donald Duck!? Part 3
Dragon Ball Super – All Out Battle (Continue)
Lunaris is still struggling to comprehend Donald dodging and landing a vicious punch as the Duck digs his fist in deeper. Donald is grinning and Penumbra is in sheer awe.
Penumbra: Amazing…he saw a small opening he could exploit to breach Lunaris' defences. What a warrior he is…just like his sister. This duck is officially the bravest man on two worlds, challenging Lunaris like this.
Donald gives a battle cry, going on the offensive as he pushes Lunaris back with rapidly vicious flurry of punches the Moon General is struggling to either block or meet blow for blow. Every punch Donald delivers makes the mage shout louder as his blows keep getting stronger, sharper and precise.
Penumbra: Whoa…Della has quite the brother. With every passing minute in battle he just keeps getting stronger and stronger.
Lunaris struggle continues as Donald keeps letting out his flurry of punches. He lands a blow to the face and sends Lunaris skidding back with Triple Plasma. The Mage of Thunder appears behind him and the moment Lunaris turns Donald delivers a kick straight to the gut that makes him shout in pain.
Donald: How do you like me now, bald blueberry!?
Lunaris: Silence!
Lunaris sends Donald back with a punch. The 3rd most powerful Mage of all worlds cartwheels backwards before exploding with aura and unleashing a beam of electricity but Lunaris runs forward, effortlessly deflecting it with his gauntlet before ramming into Donald, uppercutting him high in the air before appearing above to smash him back down to the ground. Donald grunts in pain and gets blasted by a huge Power Stone beam.
Penumbra: MALE DELLA!
Donald is getting blasted across the ground screaming in horrible pain and agony as the beam proceeds to rip him apart. However, despite the sheer anguish Donald places his hand against the beam as he screams, summoning a frontal barrier. The beam engulfs Donald in a massive explosion.
Penumbra's grave concern turns to relief when the smoke subsides to reveal her second best friend is alive, battered but alive.
...
Donald is badly bruised, his Mage outfit badly tattered and covered in cuts and dirt and his feather and hair are ruffled. His jacked is covered in more tears than before.
Donald is slumped own breathing hard as he glares at Lunaris who looks like he hasn't taken damage. Donald gives a pained chuckle.
Donald: After all that you're not even breathing hard. Tough bastard…defeating you won't be easy.
Lunaris: You can try if you want but defeating me is impossible, especially for a weakling like you and captain Penumbra.
Donald: Say, what now!?
Lunaris: Lunaris holds up a clenched fist. Your fighting style reeks of arrogance, ego infects your technique and makes you flawed, you believe yourself to be entitled to greatness but in truth you are a sad soul who loses his temper over trivial things such as family… Donald growls at that. And let us not forget that you yourself have hurt your sister's feelings just as much as she did with yours in the past. Your selfishness caused the death of your parents and abandoned your precious uncle, leading to the start of the Shadow War that almost destroyed Duckburg. And as you remember you once almost destroyed your town out of resentment to your sister and uncle, especially your own uncontrollable anger. Can you truly deny that? While it's impressive that you've landed a few devastating blows on my and have unlocked more power you still cannot use all of it. Do you think an inferior Earther with flaws like yours truly has the power to beat me, Donald Duck?
One would think Donald is offended but instead he proudly lifts his head high, standing tall with a smirk.
Dragon Ball Super – Saiyan Pride (Vegeta uses Final Flash on Jiren)
Donald: Is that supposed to insult me? Donald opens his determined and fiery eyes. I admit it, I'm arrogant and the most temperamental duck in world and at times selfish.
Donald unleashes his 75% true power state, his iris' are sapphire again as he's enveloped in a large blue aura, swirling and crackling with blue electricity.
Donald: That's PRIDE, pride in the Duck that I am, my pride as a member of the Duck and McDuck clan, the greatest adventurers of all time, solving mysteries and rewriting history! And...that's all because of the love I have for my family, because I'd happily sacrifice myself and keep fighting with everything I have to protect them! You wanna know why I get so angry? Because those who hurt my family and anyone I love make me sick and INFURIATE ME! Which is why I will fight with everything I got no matter how hard it seems!
Donald summons Caballeros Blade and Centurion and spreads his body with a scream, his amulet glowing and surrounding him in an outline of blue light. The electrical aura around him grows massive, electricity crackles in front and a white seal of pure light forms directly beneath him. He brings both his weapons together, gathering electricity and forming into a crackling ball of energy. The entire moon is trembling under his power and dark skies are being lit up.
Donald: Impossible to defeat you! Don't make me laugh! Lunaris is unfazed by this. I can't throw away who I am! My temper is a part of my personality! What I can do is keep fighting for everyone I love like I always have! For Della, Scrooge, Daisy, Huey, Dewey, Louie, Webby, Lena, Violet, Beakely, Launchpad, April, May, June, Duckworth, Gladstone, Featherly, Mickey, Goofy, Minnie, Sora, Riku, Kairi, all my friends and family who've stuck by my side till the very end! I've come far and after so long my family is almost whole again! I won't let anyone take them away from me again! I fight for all I've built and all that I am! My family give me strength and I'll use that power I draw from them and my anger to crush you Lunaris because DUCKS DON'T BACK DOWN!
The aura, seal of light and ball of electricity keep growing larger, releasing wind and electricity everywhere around him and creating a Moon tremor more massive than the ones Della created with her super strength. Penumbra looks on in sheer amazement.
Penumbra: Incredible, Male Della! I've never seen anyone harness this much power before in my life! Did Lunaris' critique and insults really cause all this!? Your energy is skyrocketing; you're even stronger than when you and I were fighting Lunaris together! What is it with you Earhter's and your bottomless power!? How do you keep getting stronger!?
The light around him is brightening and his power keeps skyrocketing as Donald gathers more energy. Lunaris isn't affected at all by the gusts of winds and dusts.
Donald: After all those insults and bragging about having the Infinity Stones I assume you're not going to act like a coward and try to run from my most powerful spell.
Lunaris: Lunaris grins, holding up the gauntlet. Not at all. Let's see if the power of the Mage of Thunder can truly match up with the Infinity Stones. Come at me with everything you have Donald Duck!
Donald: With pleasure. Donald prepares to release it all.
Penumbra: You have my complete respect and confidence! LET HIM HAVE IT DONALD DUCK!
Donald: ZETTAFLAAAAAARE!
Donald unleashes a massive and enormous beam of fiery and destructive light, blue and electrifying and even more powerful than when he used it against Magica. Lunaris quickly crosses his arms and the beam makes a direct hit, engulfing Lunaris and blasting out of the moon's atmosphere. The beam crackles with a sheer amount of electricity and causes a huge Moonquake as it leaves the planet.
...
In the area Lunaris was blasted there is a large amount of smoke and dust cloud. Donald pants in exhaustion after letting out his ultimate attack. The aura has disappeared and Donald drops to his knees, struggling to breathe in pain.
Donald: Oh man…that was a really risky gambit I just made. Hope it paid off…
Donald looks to see the clouds slowly separate to slowly reveal Lunaris on the ground seemingly injured. The Mage stands up holding his shoulder with a victorious smile.
Donald: Serves you right! That's what you get for threatening my-
He gasps to reveal the Moon General no longer where he was. What happened in the next few seconds was beyond horror for Donald and Penumbra.
Penumbra: DONALD!
Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix – Secret Ending Theme
Now Donald is the one chocking on his own breath…Lunaris has appeared right in front of him with only bruises, cuts and a little tatters to his cape. He has the Power and Space Stone form a ball of energy right to Donald's stomach.
Lunaris: You truly are a magnificent warrior. I commend for harnessing that much power in your last attack and deal damage, you have my utmost respect, Donald Duck. Now let me repay you by showing what true power is.
And with that, Donald becomes in engulfed in a Space bubble of pure Power Stone energy that makes him scream in the loudest form of pain and agony. The attack is tearing him apart from the inside out and the sphere explodes. (14)
When the smoke subsides Donald drops to his knees and then lies flat on his face in anguish in defeat, his jacket diagonally torn in half and his sweater tattered. Lunaris aims the Power Stone at him for a finisher.
...
Back on Earth, Scrooge, Della, Daisy and the Duckburg Six leave Jones house and make their way back to the manor. Della silently looks at the tape Jones gave him while the rest converse.
Daisy: You two really had us all worried.
Dewey: Sorry.
Webby: You were right, Uncle Scrooge. We shouldn't have gone looking for a mystery where there wasn't one.
Dewey: But we did find one, dear Webby. The mystery of why Donald Duck is mad at the world…because he loves us.
Dewey places a hand over his heart as he, the other kids and Daisy are touched to know how much Donald truly cares about them and Scrooge smiles.
Huey: Yeah, he took anger management therapy, something we thought he'd never do, for us.
Louie: He really wanted to be more than just our uncle…he wanted to be our father…
Webby: …Which he became…and he even gets angry for us girls…even though we aren't related…
Lena: Because he sees us three as family too…even me…he considers us his nieces.
Violet: We mean so much to him…just as he means so much to us…
Daisy: I always knew Donald would get angry to protect us…but I never knew it was to the extent that he'd take therapy to fully learn how to use his anger properly for us. He may act temperamental on the outside but deep down Donald's such a sweetheart and the best guy I could ever have.
Scrooge: It's been quite an adventure for the land he's come quite a long way. And I'm proud with the progress he's made. They turn to Della. …Including you, Della.
Dewey: What do you think Mom? Isn't this great!
Huey: Uncle Donald took anger management therapy to learn how to get angry for us, your sons…
Louie: And he wanted to keep your memory alive Mom.
Della: Della looks at her family with a sad smile. Yeah. It is great. I always thought my angry brother would be the last person to get anger management help…but he did…he did it for us…for you boys…for me…and that's the sweetest I've ever heard him do. It makes me want him to come back home even more to hug him, thank him and apologise.
Scrooge: Scrooge gently pat his nieces back. Don't worry lass. Once Donald gets back from his extended cruise you can hug, thank and apologise to him as much as you want.
Daisy: Daisy is still worried and Webby takes out the postcard. We're still not sure if Donald's really on an extended cruise.
Webby: And we still don't know why your postcard to Donald was returned in the first place, Huey.
Huey: Huey dismisses with a smile. I'm sure it's nothing to worry about. Like I said, it's probably hard for the postal service to deliver mail to a cruise ship.
Violet: Sounds logical enough. I'm more than sure Uncle Donald is doing fine. He was in a very good mood when he left, so there's no cause for concern.
Della: Well…actually kids…this morning I felt a terrible ache in my heart. Della worriedly places a hand over it. I don't know why but…I can't help but feel something bad has happened to my brother. We may be apart but…our hearts are still connected. It's a twin thing.
Daisy: I know what you mean, Della. I felt that same pain in my heart too earlier today.
Scrooge: For the last time, I'm sure nothing is wrong.
Louie: Yeah, this is Uncle Donald we're talking about. He's gotten hurt so many times I'm convinced he may be immortal.
Lena: And he's the most powerful mage ever. The only one out there as strong as Uncle Donald is Sora as far as we know.
Louie: He's probably living it up as much as possible on that cruise.
Webby: Maybe you guys are right. We worry too much.
Dewey: Yeah, I guess so. I mean, it's not like Uncle Donald is fighting some sort of incredibly powerful super being right now. Who could possibly beat him?
Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix – Secret Ending Theme (continue)
Said person has Donald at his mercy right now. Lunaris prepares to finish Donald off with a Power Stone blast.
Lunaris: Farewell… Donald Duck!
Penumbra: STOP!
Lunaris watches his former Lieutenant charge and tackle him. Donald lifts his head enough to watch Penumbra with the man she once respected.
Penumbra: I won't let you do this, Lunaris! I won't let you hurt my friend!
Lunaris delivers blows to Penumbra's back that make her shout in pain. She quickly latches onto her general's gauntlet, succeeding in bending his arm back, Lunaris screams in pain.
Penumbra: You won't win that easy General!
Lunaris: Lunaris grins. I beg to differ my former lieutenant!
To Penumbra's shock Lunaris no longer shows signs of pain as he lifts the lieutenant up. He smashes her against his knee, causing her to scream in immense pain and agony. Donald opens his beak in horror. Lunaris then holds Penny up by her neck and summons his blade to impale it through Penumbra's side, making the moon warrior gasps in pain and shock.
Donald: NOOO! PENNYYY!
Lunaris chuckles holding Penumbra via his blade before sending out a Power Stone blast that engulfs Penny and sends her screaming in pain. She crashes down into a boulder with a massive explosion.
Donald: MONSTER!
Lunaris dismisses his weapon as he watches Donald charge him with his Caballeros Sword. He tries to slash Lunaris only for the tyrant to catch and stop his blade. Donald gives a hateful glare and pushes with all his might but his sword won't budge as Lunaris effortlessly holds it back.
Lunaris: How pathetic. Do you seriously think some fancy sword will help you against me, that it will help you protect Della?
Donald's sword glows and to his great and utter horror Lunaris snaps Caballeros Blade in half.
Donald: My sword!
Lunaris: Ha! Now I've crushed your sword and staff! Now I'll crush you!
With one merciless punch to the gut Donald is screaming and gasping in pain, the two halves of his broken Caballeros Blade dropping to the ground.
Lunaris: You're a fool to think you're strong enough to defeat me!
Lunaris sends Donald stumbling back with a knee and the mage wobbles as Lunaris rushes him sadistically.
Lunaris: Let's see the limit of your pain tolerance!
Donald screams in agony from another ruthless punch to the stomach.
Lunaris: How about a few more!?
With a vicious uppercut Lunaris sends Donald flying and screaming. (15) The Mage of Thunder hits the ground hard but manages to stand and charge at Lunaris. The tyrant unleashes a barrage of Power blasts that Donald tries to plough through by crossing his arm, finding himself walking through and enduring multiple blasts. But the increasing minimal damage became too much for him when he got inches away from Lunaris.
Lunaris: He reels his fist back. Why don't you just give up and spare yourself this humiliation.
Donald's groans are replaced by a comical and pained laughter.
Donald: Actually, I don't know how to.
With a Power beam to the stomach Donald is blasted miles across the Moon terrain and a purple explosion occurs in the sky with the beaten and battered Mage Thunder falling from the sky. (16) Lunaris laughs victoriously.
Lunaris: We've reached the end of our little game! Your mighty staff and sword are no more and you're too weak to move now. With your demise my conquest over your puny planet will be complete.
Lunaris begins walking in Donald's direction.
Tales of Vesperia - Tragic Decision
Donald lies on the ground in a de-powered state, beaten, bruised, cut and tattered in worse shape than he was in the Shadow War. He's near death and hanging onto consciousness.
Donald: "I can't win. Lunaris is too powerful with those stones. That spell was my most powerful attack and all it did was bruise him. I've fought with everything I had but now I've got nothing. I've lost my best staff and sword and none of my attacks are working. Daisy…I'm sorry…I couldn't win…I really thought we'd be together forever now…wish I could see you…one last time. Huey…Dewey…Louie…Webby…Lena…Violet…I wasn't strong enough to protect you kids…even after all that therapy. I know I'm letting you all down…Uncle Scrooge… I'm sorry…"
(Vision)
Della's in Donald's mind turning around to happily show off her smile.
(End of Vision)
Donald: "Della…you spent 11 years on the Moon risking your life trying to come back home to us… I promised that I'd always protect you and I have failed you… you make up half of who I am…you're the most important person in my life along with Daisy…I love you…and I wish I got to see you again…one last time sis…"
(Flashback)
Young Della presents the Blue and Brown Wayfinders to Young Donald.
Della: Tada! I made the both of us good luck charms. Here, catch!
Donald catches his Wayfinder to admire it..
Donald: Whoa! Way cool. When did you make these?
Della: About a couple of hours ago. I read in a book that somewhere out there is a tree with star-shaped fruit… and the fruit is supposed to represent an unbreakable connection. It's said if you and someone else carries good luck charms shaped like it nothing can ever drive you apart. You'll always find your way back to each other.
A couple seconds later Donald couldn't help but burst into laughter much to Della's confusion.
Della: Come on, Donnie I'm telling the truth. I know it seems a little far-fetched but…
Donald: No, no! It's not that! He stops laughing but still speaks in a laughing tone. Sorry, sorry. It's just that…sometimes you can be such a girl!
He laughs once again and the statement prompts Della to playfully put her brother in a headlock.
Della: Hey! Watch it! What's that supposed to mean!?
Della gives a little noogie and Donald playfully pushes her off and they go into hysterical laughter.
Donald: So these aren't real good luck charms?
Della: Who cares if they aren't real good luck charms? They don't have to be real. I thought it'd be nice to make something that represents the bond you and I have.
Donald: Donald has a satisfied expression. Yeah. That's fair enough. I can see your point. Our bond is way too strong to be broken forever.
Della: Exactly. Besides, I doubt any good luck charm can save you from your bad luck.
Donald: Oh ha ha! Very funny! They laugh again for a bit.
Della: So what should we name these charms?
Donald: You said these charms would help us find our way back to each other no matter where we are, right?
Della: That's right.
Donald: Donald looks at his charm before coming up with a name. Wayfinders. It's nice, simple and makes sense.
Della: Wayfinders. Yeah, that's a nice name.
They look up in the sky again and the Duck Twins hold up their respective charms in the air. They admire their Wayfinders as they glimmer and shine under the moonlight. They both soon turn back to each other.
Donald: Della, these are great. Thanks.
Della: We'll always be together, right bro?
Donald: Of course we will sis. We'll always been there for each other. I'm not leaving you Della. Not this time. And even if we're in completely different places far away from each other you'll always be in my heart. You're my precious sister, the other half of me and I'll always be there to protect you whenever you need me. No matter what, that'll never change.
Della comes right up and gives Donald a big kiss in the cheek much to his surprise.
Della: Thank you…big brother. You'll always be in my heart too. They exchange warm smiles. You're my other half Donnie and I love you.
Donald: I love you too, Del.
The Duck Twins have another hug under the moonlight and enjoy each other's company which they've been avoiding for 6 months, to their hearts content.
...

Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep - Friendship Music
Donald opens his eyes enough to see his blue Wayfinder lying next to him.
Donald: My Wayfinder…
Donald clutches they symbol of his connection with Della tightly.
Donald: "I remember the day you made us both these Wayfinders…in order to symbolise our bond as the Duck Twins after reconciling over our parents. It was one of your girly moments and that day an unbreakable connection was created between us."
(Flashback)
Donald thinks back to the events of Ithaquack when Donald and Della made amends after the former defeated Hades. The twins are talking in a heartwarming manner while holding out their Wayfinders to one another.
Donald: This charm reminded me that no matter how mad I get with you our connection as twins can never be broken.
Della: I meant what I said that day Donald. Our bond will never break no matter what kind of arguments we have.
Donald (flashback): Yeah, no matter what I say to you Della I can never stop myself from caring about you so much.
They continue talking.
Donald: "You carried the charm with you to space even after our big argument. I knew one day we'd find our way back to each other no matter how long it took or how far apart we were. There were times I felt you were trouble…like you needed me by your side…and though I couldn't be there for you in person I did whatever I could to help you through the symbol of our bond."
Della is being crushed by Darkside, screaming in sheer agony and anguish.
Donald is in his sleeping pod in Twilight Town screaming in pain from the black electrocution and feeling his sister's pain.
Donald: I kept hoping and dreaming that the two of us would find each other again.
He remembers Della's heartwarming transmission.
Donald: And after seeing your transmission I realized you felt the exact same way. I refuse to not be there for you anymore or to spend another minute apart. I must fight on…I must survive…
...
(End of Flashback)
Xenoblade Chronicles - Tragic Decisions
Donald: Della…sis…
Donald solemnly looks at his Wayfinder with tears leaving his eyes until Lunaris drops down kneeing him in the stomach, making Donald scream and writhe in horrible pain. Lunaris stands next to him laughing evilly.
Lunaris: Were you taking time to rest Earther. Well, times up now, weakling, your presence on my planet can no longer be tolerated. I should end this right now but I'm savouring your pain, there's no reason for me to end your life quickly after all.
Lunaris kicks him up, making Donald scream again and his Wayfinder is released, landing right in front of him just as he hits the ground. The tyrant is now mercilessly pounding the sailor who reaches out for his precious Wayfinder with fire in his eyes.
Donald: "I…can't lose hope…I've gotta keep fighting to the end, For Della… Daisy… Uncle Scrooge… Huey… Dewey… Louie… Webby… Lena… Violet… April… May… June… Launchpad… Beakely… Mickey… Goofy… Minnie… all of my friends. I must go on. Ducks don't back down!"
Lunaris: Time to die.
Lunaris prepares to stomp out of existence but to his surprise Donald was able to find the strength to twist and grab Lunaris' foot and hold it back.
Donald: The game isn't over yet!
Lunaris: We'll see about that.
Donald tries to hold back with all his might but Lunaris reels his foot to stomp his stomach, making the mage gasps for air as he is then kicked aside. (17) When Lunaris notices his Wayfinder he picks it up with an evil grin.
Lunaris: Your precious Wayfinder, a symbol of your bond with Della. Such a trivial reason for its value, perhaps I should crush it right before yours
Upon hearing, Donald's eyes snap open and in an instant he does a flying a kick to Lunaris' chin, making him reel back and release the Wayfinder in the air. Donald follows up with a couple of punches to the stomach before a strong one to the face, sending the general skidding back in pain. Donald catches his Wayfinder and gives Lunaris a hateful glare.
Donald: Don't ever touch my Wayfinder again! It's mine! And I'll never let you destroy the bond between me and Della! Nothing will ever destroy that!
Lunaris: Perhaps I can't destroy your bond but I will destroy you!
Donald: NEVER! I'll never let that happen! I will survive and see my sister again!
Donald's Wayfinder gives off a bright glow and he feels his energy well up. He releases a shout and transforms into his 75% True Power State again, releasing an electrical aura. Lunaris is unfazed and Donald charges to deliver a punch only for the tyrant to instantly ram his fist in his stomach making him shout again.
He's sent smashing into another cliff, dropping to the ground with large amounts of rocks falling next to him. Donald sweats in pain, exhaustion and anguish and gives a hurt smile.
Donald: Oh boy…I know I'm tough…but I'm not match for him like this!
He gets up attempting to run at Lunaris only having to be forced to endure another Power blast. When the smoke subsides he gives a comically annoyed look.
Donald: Hey, you big palooka! How about giving me a handicap for once, ya jerk!?
Lunaris: Is that an Earther's way of saying coffin?
Donald once again finds himself ploughing through another barrage of Power Stone but this time he was strong enough to withstand it and flies out of the smoke with Centurion and his power activated.
Donald: THUNDAZA!
He sends out a Thundaza blast at point blank range in Lunaris' face, engulfing him in explosive electricity. When the smoke subsides Donald is quivering in fear to see Lunaris snickering without any new scratches. With a powerful back punch Centurion is snapped in half too and Lunaris clutches Donald's face, holding him up as the mage's struggling sounds are muffled.
Lunaris: What was that supposed to be, an attack? It was pathetic; you're beginning to bore me now Donald Duck. I thought you'd be more of a challenge but you turned out quite a disappointment in the main. But I suppose that's what happens when you spend so much time researching one warrior and figuring out how to counter him. The time has come to put you out of your misery.
Lunaris drops an anguished Donald as he releases a Power Stone blast at point blank range in his face. Donald is sent flying like a shooting star screaming in horrible pain.
He lands farther away from Lunaris with a massive purple explosion. A crater has formed in the area he made impact and Donald lies on plenty of rubbles, de-powered and his face is not only bruised but covred in blood streaming from his forehead. He pants in pain as he barely manages to crawl out.
Donald: That…was not fun…
Donald then sees Penny lying in her same position, battered and unconscious and he weakly crawls over to her in desperation.
Donald: Penumbra…Penny…
Just as he got halfway to her friend he hears the sounds of hundreds of footsteps coming towards. He barely sits up on his tail feather panting in exhaustion. But he's able to show shock to see thousands of Heartless and Nobodies heading towards his way, leaving a trail of dust clouds in their wake. His eyes widen comically in terror and shock.
Donald: Aww, phooey...
It was an entire army and they are bent on killing Donald. He wobbly gets up, breathing hard, slumped down and barely able to stand. he then turns his head to see another army of thousands of Heartless and Nobodies marching towards him in a circle.
Donald: I've heard of stacking the odds but this is too much…even for me…
He looks to see his only ally still unconscious. He gives the swarm of enemies headed towards him a pained smile.
Donald: Oh man... looks like I'm really on my own now. I can barely feel my legs…but it looks like I don't have a choice in this matter… It's do or die… His eyes fill with determination. This one's for my family! DUCKS...DON'T...BACK...DOWN! EVER!
The army of Heartless and Nobodies are only metres away as Donald releases the loudest scream he could give off, activating his 75% True Power State one more time. The massive blue aura and electricity blasts everywhere out of his body to light up the atmosphere and the moment the enemies are inches away from him the most massive electrical explosion occurs, engulfing almost all the enemies and Donald. (17)
A multitude of massive explosions occur everywhere around the moon as the entire rock is surging with electricity. The Mage of Thunder's fate is unknown.
After tucking the boys in to bed, Della is in the living room with the lights off. She places in the cassette tape and sits on the sofa to see Donald's last session with Jones. Her brother is sat down with a blank look.
(Video)
Jones: So, Donald, tell me how you feel these days?
Donald: Um…it's hard to explain this time. For years I've been resenting my Uncle over building the Spear of Selene and causing Della to get lost in space. At the same time…part of me resented Della for the things she said and not listening to me about the dangers of space despite the facts that she had 3 kids coming. She left me to raise the kids all on my own. It shouldn't have been me, it should've been her. They boys needed a Mom, not a temperamental and accident prone uncle.
Della saddens in guilt, hurt to hear Donald resents her and that she left him to deal with the burden that should've been hers.
Jones: So how do you feel now about all this?
Donald: Well…after all these years I'm finally at peace now with my Uncle. I thought he cared about no one but himself and money…but I was wrong. He did everything he could to find Della, even though it cost him a huge fortune he still kept going, not caring that he'd probably become the second Richest Duck in the World. The only reason he ever stopped was because the Board shut it all down. I used to think in the past my Uncle was unfair and too tough on me and at the same time jealous of the closer relationship between him and my sister. But looking back…all I remember are the good times, even if those times involved me being humiliated.
Jones: What about your girlfriend? Are you still afraid she won't like you anymore for your temper?
Donald: Not anymore. It's true the first 2 years during Della's disappearance I separated myself from Daisy because I didn't want her to see me in my heartbroken condition. I could barely keep a relationship with her during our college years because she wanted me to get rid of my temper. Donald saddens in heartbreak. She didn't understand that it was a part of me and I just can't control it. I didn't want her to see how angry I was at the world, at Uncle Scrooge, Della…everyone…I was afraid of having to relive my college years. And I didn't want Mickey, Minnie and Goofy to see me like that too…I didn't want them to see the state I was in. As a matter of fact…I didn't want to see anyone…I didn't know who to trust anymore…I just wanted to be alone forever.
Della feels tears well up in her eyes seeing how Donald lost the ability to trust others. But then Donald smiles in the video.
Donald: But after the Shadow War, I realized I could never throw them out of my life, they've been mine and Della's best friends since childhood. And thanks to Sora I decided to trust others again, especially my friends. And as for Daisy…even though she didn't have to, she apologised for the way she acted during our college years and made it clear she doesn't care about my temper anymore. She loves and accepts me for who I am just as I do with her. She never gave up on me even after seeing how angry I was with Scrooge, she did her best to support me over the 11 years and make me feel better about Della and I'll always be grateful for that. She's the light in my heart…thanks to her I haven't fallen down the dark path. It's because of Daisy that I've made things right with my nephews and Uncle.
Jones: And what about your sister?
Donald: After all these years, I think I'm finally at peace with my sister. I know she never meant to leave me alone the way she did and I can understand why she took the rocket. Change can be hard to accept, especially when you're an adult with the mentality of a child, like my sister.
Normally Della would be insulted but she just sadly smiles at her brother.
Donald: Knowing that she trusts me to take care of her sons and that she still loves me despite our argument really touches my heart. After all, we have been best friends since we were born…I just wish our last conversation didn't have to end up the way it did. But it's okay now…I know Della's alive out there somewhere. Call it a twin connection, I know she'll come back home and I'm gonna keep waiting for her. Besides…
Della gasps when she sees Donald take out his Wayfinder, prompting her to take out her own one.
Donald: No matter how mad I get at Della, I can never stay that way with her forever. That's how close and connected we truly are.
Jones: And your nephew?
Donald: I've decided to mellow down a little. I wasn't really happy to let them go on adventures with Uncle Scrooge but after the Shadow War and seeing how much I can trust them to make their own decisions I've decided to step down a little and let them be who they want to be. I mean…they get their love for adventure and danger from their mother and there's no way I can stop that. I can however, be there for them when they need me. I promised Della that I'd look out for them, Huey… Dewey… Louie… the three of them each hold a part of Della inside them, that's why I was so overprotective in the first place. Losing them would feel like losing Della again. After she disappeared I was broken, half of me was gone, I felt rejected, discarded and cast aside. With my sister gone I felt like an outsider, it was me against the entire world and I was only half of a duo without my twin.
Della is beginning to cry once more out of guilt and remorse for ever abandoning her brother and making him feel like this.
Donald: I've done some terrible things, cause my parents deaths, said hurtful things to my sister, abandon my uncle, lied to my boys about their Mom and me being a mage, ripped our family apart in the Cloudslayer, caused the Shadow War and Lena to die…and I once almost destroyed this whole town once because I let my anger overwhelm me…I was out of control and almost killed innocent people. I still can't get it out of my head…I get nightmares of it happening again sometimes. Being alone like that was a horrible fate…cold…empty…and terrifying. Daisy and the rest of my friends saved me from falling into a dark abyss that day. That's why I came to you Jones, to help me learn how to control my anger…or rather how to use it for my nephews…so I can be their father instead of just their uncle. I want them to have a good parent, not an uncle who goes out of control for no reason. If I am going to get angry I want it to be for them, just as I had gotten angry for Della and Daisy. When Della disappeared into space, I felt like I failed her, the boys were my second chance and I promised I wouldn't fail again.
More tears stream down Della's face, heartbroken to see Donald's guilt and pain and at the same time touched by his reasons for therapy.
Jones: Do you still feel like an outcast these days…do you still feel like a failure.
Donald: Donald gives off a smile. Not anymore. I finally understand…I'm not alone in this world after all. I may have lost my sister but I still have my friends and family here and they all do their best to support me. I have a lot of people that I care about: Della, Daisy, Uncle Scrooge, Mom, Dad, Dewey, Huey, Louie, Webby, Lena, Violet, Launchpad, Beakely, April, May, June, Mickey, Goofy, Minnie, Panchito, Jose, Xandra, Sora, Riku, Kairi… and a lot of other good people. They all love and care about me…and I care about them…even Gladstone and Fethry…especially Della who makes up half of who I am and Daisy who's the light in my heart that guides me down the right path. That's why I wanted to master my temper and use it to protect them.
Jones: Judging by your battle with Magica I'd say you have mastered it. You've come a long way Donald since the incident 9 years ago that no one remembers anymore. Your parents and sister would be proud of you. And with that we conclude our sessions. I hope you haven't forgotten to pay me for this.
Donald: Donald rolls his eyes. Yeah, yeah, you'll get your payment soon Jones. Keep your hat on.
(End Video)
When the video finishes Della's tears gush out of her. She knew her brother was heartbroken after their argument and her disappearance but she never thought it'd be to this extent. Her abandonment almost led him down a dark path of loneliness and resentment. She walks up the screen, dropping to her knees before also bringing out the locket given by her mother. She holds it with her Wayfinder, opening it up to reveal the small pictures of her and Donald as 6 year olds, her tears dripping on them.
Della: Oh, Donald…Donnie…I miss you… She clutches and holds them to her chest tightly, crying her eyes out. I really am a thoughtless idiot! I pushed you away so many times and look where it's lead you…because I stole that dumb rocket and disappeared from your life you were almost driven to brink of insanity, I almost turned you into a criminal, you waited for me… you needed me and I let you down… I left you feeling like you didn't belong in this world anymore… She looks at Donald's image on the screen. It's bad enough that I was upset not having you by my side on the moon but it's worse for you…I almost turned you into a monster! If Daisy, Mickey, Goofy and Minnie hadn't been there I would've lost you forever! I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry, Donald!
She gets her hands crying and sobbing hysterically, regretful and guilty over the suffering her disappearance has caused her brother. That was stopped when Scrooge appeared behind.
Scrooge: Della…
Della gasps a little, turning away to wipe her tears quickly. Scrooge wasn't fooled and walks up to her, worried and saddened as she got up to look at her uncle.
Della: Hey, unc.
Scrooge: Are you okay, lass?
Della: Della slowly shakes her head. To be honest…not really Uncle Scrooge. I'm worried…do you think Donald will ever forgive me?
Scrooge: Ack! Quit you're worrying Della, of course, Donald will forgive you, why wouldn't he?
Della: It's just that I- She's almost in tears again. I've caused him so much pain and suffering for the past 11 years. He felt like an outcast to the world, abandoned and with no one to understand him anymore because I left him, he isolated himself from Daisy, Mickey and the others and he almost destroyed the entire city. And that was all because I left him broken and traumatised! He felt like he failed to protect me…but the real truth is…I failed him…I left him to take care of my kids on his own…he needed and I let him down! I've broken his heart three times now, first blaming him over what happened to Mom and Dad, the both of us ignoring and humiliating him until Ithaquack and our argument before the Spear. I-I- She sighs in sadness. I wish I never stole that stupid rocket. Donald resented me…and who could blame him after what I did? I don't deserve him as my brother.
Scrooge: Scrooge places a hand on her shoulder with a smile. Lass, if Donald forgive you for 2 of those things you stated, he can forgive you for just about anything. Your bond is far too strong to ever be truly broken. Wasn't that what those Wayfinders signified? Della deeply looks at her Wayfinder again. Plus, don't forget, Donald took that therapy for you, because he wanted protect the boys, preserve your memory and the parts of you that were still with him.
Della: Della smiles touched. Yeah…he did. He took anger management therapy, something I thought he'd never do to be able to protect the boys…and to remember me…and I'm really proud of him. He really is Huey, Dewey and Louie's father; he looked out for them to the end. I really miss him Uncle Scrooge, I really want to thank him and tell him how sorry I truly am.
Scrooge: I know you do Della. We all do. Just wait for a couple more weeks and Donald will be back for you to talk to him as much as you want.
Della: Della worriedly places her Wayfinder to her chest. I don't know Uncle Scrooge; I'm really worried about him. Maybe, you think he's on an extended cruise but twin connection tells me differently. Something's happened to my brother, I can sense it.
Scrooge: If you're convinced something has happened to your brother, how a about calling Donald tomorrow?
Della: Della contemplates. I wanted to keep it a surprise but I don't think I can keep waiting any longer. Della smiles. Alright, I'll call the cruise ship tomorrow and hopefully has time to talk on the phone.
Scrooge: Scrooge is pleased with the response. Fantastic. Now I suggest you get some sleep lass.
Della: Yeah. Della yawns and heads for the stairs. It's been a long day and I could really catch some Z's. She turns to Scrooge smiling. Uncle Scrooge…thanks…
Scrooge: Don't mention it, lass.
Scenes shift to Della sat on her bed in her pyjamas talking on the phone with Daisy who is at her own home, having been told about calling Donald tomorrow.
Della: So, that's what I'm suggesting Daisy, what do you think? I wanted to keep it a surprise but I'm really worried and I can't hold this off any longer.
Daisy: Yeah, I agree. We should phone the cruise and check up on Donald tomorrow. We'll do it the moment we have some free time.
Della: Great! Goodnight Daisy.
Daisy: Goodnight Della.
Della hangs up her mobile and turns her lamp off before going to bed. Lying next to her face are her Wayfinder and locket and she longingly looks at the picture of Donald on her drawer, thinking about her twin as old memories of a certain song floods into her mind.
Brother Sister Song
Della: Here's to my brother remember every day
No matter what I've said, here's what I'd like to say
I will always love you, be with you to the end
And when no one else is a round, I will be your friend
Cause I love my brother, and I always will
I'm proud to be your sister, that's how I feel
Someday when we're far away and the miles keep us apart
You will discover, I love my brother
And you'll know it in your heart!
…
Della: A slight tear drops out of her eyes. You've been waiting so long for me, Don. This time…I'll wait for you. Goodnight, bro.
She take the picture, giving it a small kiss before putting back and lying down fully, drifting into sleep, unbeknownst to her, the Brown Wayfinder if faintly glowing repeatedly.
In a black background, possible in Donald's pockets the Blue Wayfinder is giving the same faint glow.
(Split Screen) Both Wayfinders are responding to one another, as though the brown one is responding to whatever danger Donald's in right now.
Gyro Gearloose is in his darkened lab making adjustments to the radio, using a satellite to boost its signal and dechiper the part where it's jammed. He's finally finished.
Gyro: Alright. That should take care of the jamming. Now let's hear that full message from Della's best friend.
He turns it on and Penumbra's full message plays. He's about to wish he never heard it.
Penumbra: This is Lieutenant Penumbra with a message for her friend, Della Duck! All your defence satellites are down for some reason! Lunaris is bringing an army to destroy Earth! Della...he's coming for your family! And what's worse a male version of you has crash landed on our planet and been taken prisoner by him!
Gyro's blood runs cold and his eyes widen in complete horror with the full message he heard and that death is on its way for them.
Gyro: An alien invasion...? Defence satellites down? Male version of Della? He gasps in horror and realization. DONALD!?
Fenton: Dr Gearloose!
Gyro turns in surprise to see Fenton running up to him and stops panting, almost out of breath.
Fenton: An important message has just come up on our main computer!
Gyro: Not now, intern! I have just learned horrifying information which is far more important!
Fenton: Gyro tries to walk away. You don't understand, sir! It's a transmission...from outer space!
Gyro: What!? Gyro crazily tugs Fenton's shirt and his intern is in fear. Where in space!? Who was it from!? Tell me who it's from!?
Fenton: From the moon...a-and it was from Donald Duck! I don't understand it, he's supposed to be on a cruise!
Gyro: Gyro furrows his eyebrows. It seems like he isn't. Show me the transmission...
What Gyro is about to hear is the warning for the terror that's soon to come to Earth, far worse than the Shadow War.
