Chapter 70: How Scrooge Saved Christmas!


The North Pole...

Cold. Freezing. Absolute zero this region is. But here, is where the hub is. And what hub is it? Santa's Workshop!

It is rare to see it. And so far, Santa has once visited McDuck Manor for their assistance and in the end, he and Scrooge settled everything without hate and stuff.

Okay, let's go inside the workshop and take a peek as first, the workshop is as large as McDuck Manor. And second, it's not only home and workshop to Santa but it's a toy factory!

Now it cuts to inside from the peeking through the window as elves can be seen hard at work. All kinds of toys and games are being manufactured inside and the elves put in their hundred percent as they worked through with joy and singing. (The elves are singing, "Last Christmas!" and "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer")

Now the next scene reveals Santa Claus in his room checking the computer. His wife Mrs Claus(Also a polar bear like her husband)can be seen bringing him some milk and cookies. "Still checking the list dear?"

"Almost done. As usual, the naughty list stays the same and the nice list grew in the number of children and teenagers." Santa replied. "Any news about the reindeers?"

"They're almost done being tended to." Mrs Claus when the alarm rang. "At a time like this?" Santa got up and went to check security footage beside his computer and, "WHAT? An intruder?!"

At the workshop, the elves are still working when, "BOOM!"

"Hey...did Santa mention that he's having guests?" An elf asked when, "CHT!"

"Eek! Kael's been shot!" Another exclaimed and then, a barrage of darts shot through and the next thing it happened, all the elves are struck and down for the count as the scene zoomed away revealing security footage as, "No...Christmas is being ruined!" Satna exclaimed when an elf burst in. "Santa! We're under attack! What do we do?!"

"No time to lose! Wait here!" Santa took a pen and paper and scribbled down for a bit. Once done, "Go to Duckburg and deliver this to-"

"Dear! Look!" Mrs Claus pointed at the screen of his computer as it shows a silhouetted figure walking in and accompanied by an army of robots. Time is of the essence as, "As I was saying, go to Duckburg and deliver this to Scrooge McDuck!"

"Who's Scrooge McDuck and how will I get to the city without being directionless?" The elf asked. "All the reindeers I rode before know the way, hitch a ride on one of them and it'll bring you to him! Now hurry! It's all up to you now!" Santa then pressed a hidden button on a wall as a hole opened up and Mrs Claus grabbed the elf and threw him in. By the time it's done, "IOOM!" Their room was breached as Santa Claus and Mrs Claus braced themselves for the worst.

Outside the workshop, a hole opened up and the elf was out. "Ow...now where are the-oh no!" It appears even the reindeers were shot as their bodies are covered in darts. "How am I gonna find a reindeer to-" He heard rustling and soon enough, "Rudolf! You're alive and in one piece! Come on, we have to go to Duckburg! You know the way right?" The elf asked as the reindeer beckoned him to hitch a ride. Once done, the elf and reindeer took off flying out of the North Pole and to Duckburg as fast as they can.

McDuck Manor...

"Steady...steady..." Huey is at work controlling a drone that's holding onto a star decoration for the Christmas tree with Duckworth watching him. It's a few inches from the tree and, "Drop!" Huey had the drone drop it and, "Yes! Perfect fit!" He cheered as Louie passed by with a list. "Another Christmas list?" He asked. "Indeed. But not so much stuff." Louie replied as he walked to the TV room to chill.

In the kitchen, "Chocolate chip cookies for us all and Santa!" Dewey and Webby shouted in unison as they're having fun with plenty of cookies. "How many did we bake so far?" Dewey asked. "I think we baked 5 dozen." Webby replied and they cheered. "MORE COOKIES FOR US!" And more crunching for them.

In the living room, Scrooge and Goldie are bonding with their little girl. "Diamond's first Christmas!" Goldie cheered as the duckling crawled to Scrooge as he carried her and cuddled with her. "Yer gonna enjoy this holiday lass." He told her as she giggled and touched his cheek. The parents laughed as Scrooge passed Diamond to Goldie as the family bonding continues on. Beakly smiled at their fun while she's hanging stockings on the fireplace linked to the chimney.

Then, Donald showed up from work as, "Hi everyone!"

"Ah Donald! Have yer planned fer ya upcoming wedding?" Scrooge asked. "Not yet." He replied. "Betta plan soon. Can't wait to see ya all mature and ready fer it." Scrooge replied as Della showed up. "Check out this Christmas sweater! I got it from the mall!" She called out showing the family a red and white polka dot sweater.

"Gee, that kinda looks hideous." Launchpad called out from the kitchen as he ate a sandwich when, "OOF!" Della wrestled him onto the ground for saying that.

As time passes on, "CRASH!"

"Wot in tha blazes?!" Scrooge exclaimed as the family stopped what they are doing and headed outside. As Scrooge opened the front door, All gasped.

In front of them is the damaged dollar sign statue and the cause? "Ow...it seems I never knew how to make reindeers land properly and smoothly..."

"OHMYGOSH! AN ELF! AN ELF! WE HAVE AN ELF OUTSIDE THE HOUSE!" Webby shrieked in excitement as everyone went to the elf and, "Aye? It's Rudolf!" Scrooge exclaimed. "You still remember the reindeer's name?" A surprised Webby asked. "Of course! An obviously, Rudolf is known as tha red nosed reindeer in tha calvary of Santa Claus!" Scrooge replied with remembrance. Beaklt then examined them. "They appeared to be knocked out." She reported. "Barely."

"Alright. Donald, Della tend to tha reindeer. Beakly, bring tha elf in our house and patch im up. Good thing he has minor bruises." Scrooge ordered as the family went inside and, "Uh wait, what do we do with the reindeer?" Della called out but everyone went inside. "Great. It's just me and my brother." said Della as Donald went to the reindeer. "It looks fine though. Must have stumbled. Now what will it be like if I touch the red nose?" Donald then poked it with his finger and suddenly, Rudolf stood on fours, turned his back and, "KICK!"

"KSH!" Della was shocked at what just happened. "Now that has lifted my Christmas spirit!" She laughed out loud as Rudolf went sniffing around a bit.

Now inside, "What's your name elf?" Huey asked. "A...Aurian." The elf replied. "Never heard of such name." said Dewey. "Well...Santa gave us names based on fictional material. Elven names from Warcraft, Lord of the Rings and Warhammer 40K."

"Wait, Santa plays computer games and watches movies?!" A stunned Louie asked. "In his free time." said Aurian as Beakly bandaged his face and his arms with band-aids and Webby gave him a glass of milk. As he drank, "Aright now Aurien, wot brings ya here?" Scrooge asked. "Oh right! This is seriously urgent! From Santa!" Aurian then took out the paper. "Better not be tha part where he forgets tha steps to deactivate tha traps." said Scrooge as he read it and his eyes are wide in shock.

Dear Scrooge

You have helped me before and had a change of heart some time ago. But now I need your help again for in this desperate time, Christmas will be ruined! My workshop is under attack by someone on the naughty list and he has an army of robots at his disposal! Almost all my elves, reindeers and even my beloved wife are shot with darts and sent to be locked up! I am all that's left and in hiding from the naughty villain so please, save me! Save my workshop and most importantly, save Christmas before it passes and before that deranged villain from the naughty list ruins it for good!

Yours truly,
Santa Claus

"Curse me kilts..." Scrooge thought when, "What does it say?" Huey asked. "Christmas is ruined." Scrooge began as all gasped. "Unless we take action, we can save it an Santa! Dis family ain't gonna back down dat easily!" Scrooge declared as all cheered. "But what happened?" Dewey asked. "Let's just say Santa's under attack an he needs us to save him an Chrismtas!" Scrooge stated as he passed the letter to the teens as they read it. "An army of robots? Led by someone on the naughty list? Who could that be?" Louie asked. "All will be revealed for we're travellin to tha North Pole for tha first time!" Scrooge announced leaving everyone speechless.

"The North Pole? How is it possible? It's one of the coldest regions on earth!" Louie exclaimed. "The Cloudslayer won't survive for long in the cold air!"

"Ya ever heard of bein prepared fer anything?" Scrooge asked as all stared at him.

It cuts to outside the plane and all are in their winter attire. Well only Scroooge, Huey, Dewey, Louie, Webby, Launchpad, Beakly, Donald and Della. Aurian and Rudolf are with them too. "This month, I had Gyro install new engine systems in tha Cloudslayer to withstand extreme weather conditions such as tha freezing cold in tha North Pole."

"Cool!" Huey exclaimed. "Also, he coated tha plane with some experimental lubricant designed to shrug off tha ice that freezes on tha plane an it's wings." Scrooge added. "As expected and talented from the scientist that was the former president of the Science Club in his high school years!" Huey exclaimed. "And Junior Woodchuck Rule 70: Be ready for anything and everything!"

"Good! Let's go! It's 8pm and we still got time ta save Christmas before it gets ruined!" Scrooge stated as all cheered in agreement. "What about us?" Aurian asked and Rudolf just looked at the family. "Right. You guys are needed. Knowing dat you came from tha North Pole an wokked fer Santa, you should know everything bout tha region." said Scrooge. "Oh yes! I also know the layout of the workshop!" Aurian stated. "This is so exciting! We're gonna kick ass and tour Santa's Workshop!" Webby cheered. "And that's why I brought all the cookies baked." said Dewey as he showed the family 2 large glass containers containing the chocolate chip cookies. "Don't worry, I left some at the mansion."

It cuts to Goldie watching the family board the plane as Diamond is seen munching on a cookie in happiness and Duckworth looking after her and he has her baby bottle of milk for her. "Come back as soon as you can safely Scroogey." She thought with hope and a smile.

Now in the plane. "Right. Let's do this! Della, Launchpad, start tha engine!" Scrooge ordered and Della cheered. "Oh yeah! Let's fly to the North Pole!"

"And crash onto it!" Launchpad cheered as they went to the controls and got to work. The Cloudslayer soon is primed and ready for takeoff. "Wow...a plane so huge is something!" Aurian exclaimed and then, it took off.

In the cold sky...

"Tell us about the workshop Aurian." Louie asked. "Yes. It's the hub for Santa and us elves to manufacture all kinds of toys and games for the children!" Aurian began. "Yeah and since we're teens, it has nothing to do with us." said Dewey as he gave the elf a cookie to eat and Webby is seen feeding some to Rudolf as the reindeer enjoyed it. "Actually it does." Aurian revealed. "We elves manufactured sports equipment like basketballs, footballs, baseballs and bats, hockey sticks, volleyballs and many more! We also manufactured video games."

"WHAAAAAT!?" The triplets exclaimed in unison as Rudolf snickered. (LOL! I am being too creative!)

"It's not just children that enjoy Christmas, teens also! Especially the ones that study in middle school, high school, college and university!" Aurian explained. "Sure you guys are growing but never forget that you still have your soft spots even when you're adults in the future." said Aurian and Rudolf already had a jar stuck up his snout from the delicious cookies. "Rudolf the red-nosed reindeer is so silly!" said Webby as the teens and elf worked to get the jar off him.

Meanwhile, "This is gonna be dangerous. Once we reached tha workshop, expect heavy resistance." Scrooge spoke to Beakly. "It is fortunate that you brought me along Scrooge. Besides, I had experience in chopping robots into pieces like that one mission many years ago." said Beakly. "Ya still ave a sharp memory Agent 22." said Scrooge when, "Hot chocolate anyone?" Donald showed up with some cups and a thermos. He soon poured some rich, warmth, chocolate liquid into the cups as the trio had a drink. "Mmmm...I could use a little 'warm up' before the operaton." said Beakly as they laughed.

2 hours later...

"This is your pilot speaking, we're nearing the North Pole!" Della announced as all looked up. "As of now, temperature's extremely cold! Like a raging blizzard! Absolute zero!" Launchpad announced as all looked through the windows. "I see it! Santa's Workshop!" Louie called out when, "Oh no! Robots are coming out! They know we're here!" Aurian exclaimed as from the ground and outside the workshop, the robots switched their arms into dart cannons and opened fired.

"CHT! CHT! CHT! CHT! CHT! CHT! CHT!"

"Your turn!" Della let Launchpad do the flying as, "Crashing is my specialty!"

Soon enough, "Well...we're lucky to crash behind with little interior and exterior damage." Beakly reported to Scrooge as everyone can be seen getting out of the plane. Webby jumped off and Dewey caught her carrying her in bridal style. "Ooooooh." Huey and Louie teased and Rudolf joined them not knowing it much but it wanted to have fun. "Alright. We need to get inside tha workshop, save Santa Claus an defeat dat vile nuisance dat took over his turf." Scrooge stated. "Follow me. I know this place in and out." said Aurian as all followed the elf.

It cuts to the back as, "There should be a hidden backdoor..." Aurian touched the wall feeling it with his elven hands and, "CLICK!" A door opened up. "Nice work!" said Huey as the group went inside.

"As of now, we are in the storage room. It's safe from prying eyes and ears." Aurian as Scrooge turned on a flashlight he brought. After a bit of scanning, he found a switch and turned the lights on. "Whoa..." The teens were amazed to see boxes full of toys and games as they started looking around and rummaging through them as Aurian tried to stop them. "Hey! Don't touch them all! These are meant for-"

"Wow! I didn't know you guys make Quacky Patch Dolls." Webby exclaimed. "So many balls!" Dewey cheered diving into a box full of balls. "They really manufactured this much?! I gotta write a list!" Huey exclaimed. "Heh. Child's Play." said Louie when they heard something. "It's coming from that large present over there." said Donald. "It may be trap! Be on your guard!" Beakly warned everyone as she and Webby got into their fighting stance already when, "RIP!"

"Ho! Ho! Ho! Hiding inside this present can be tight and ugh...I almost ran out of breath."

"SANTA CLAUS!" The teens cheered running to the jolly old polar bear and hugged him. "Ah...I remember you all! You were all small back then and now look at you all! Grown into teens especially the little girl who tagged along with Scrooge back then and she grew into a fine, young and beautiful duck!" Santa exclaimed remembering them all. "Santa's got a point. She is beautiful." said Aurian and Rudold nodded in agreement. "And she became my girlfriend." said Dewey. "Oh that's lovely Dewey." Santa replied. "You still remember me!" He beamed as, "We need to get down to business. I got yer letter dat some maniac took over yer hub?" Scrooge asked. "Yes indeed." Santa replied getting serious. "He was from the nice list before until I found out about an incident involving complete mayhem and pandemonium that I made some changes."

"And he's not happy, won't accept it and dat's why he invaded yer area." Scrooge concluded. "But how did he get to the North Pole in the first place?" Della asked. "I wish I knew." Santa replied as he took out a map, rolled it up and laid it on one of the wrapped presents as all gathered around. "A map revealing the inside of the workshop!" Huey exclaimed. "This, is where he is now. In the central workshop. I have at about 5 workshops for the elves to manufacture the toys and games. North, South, East, West and Central." Santa briefed everyone. "Here is the basement. This is where my wife and all the elves are kept prisoners. I spent some time spying around a bit while hiding and hurrying my way here."

"So we simply defeat the naughty villain and free the prisoners? How hard can it be?" Louie asked. "It's not that easy son. Too many robots in which they are called duck bots and they shoot darts from the palm of their robotic hands. They patrol the inside and outside of the workshop and they guard the prisoners." Santa revealed. "Unless they are connected to a source. If there's a chance, we must find the source, remove it and they're out of the picture aka offline." said Huey. "Right. We'll split up. "I'll go an fight dat villainous thug." Scrooge announced. "I'll go with you sir." said Beakly. "We'll go!" Dewey and Webby piped in. Scrooge nodded at them and, "Louie, you an yer mother an uncle will instigate a breakout!"

"Sure thing Uncle Scrooge! I did something like that in an asylum during my freshman year." Louie replied. "Wait, what?" Della and Donald stared at Louie as, "Nope, nothing!" He told them as, "An Huey! Find tha source of dose robotic junkies and disable it with any means necessary!" Scrooge tasked the oldest triplet. "On it!" He replied as, "What about me Mr McDee?" Launchpad asked. "You will stay an guard Santa and his personel. Make sure they are alive when dis iz over!" Scrooge tasked the pilot. "I'll go and help your nephew!" Aurian volunteered. "I may be an elf but I have my uses!"

"Alright then." Scrooge allowed it as Huey hi-f the elf. "Now let's go an save Christmas like before!" Scrooge declared as all cheered.

It begins...

So everything is set in motion as Scrooge, Beakly, Dewey and Webby head out first and commenced attack. Many duck bots saw them and opened fired. Scrooge countered the darts by blocking them with his cane. Beakly hunched down a bit as Dewey and Webby jumped on her back and flipped themselves into the group of duck bots. Once they landed, close combat was executed resulting in scrap metals and parts.

While they're fighting through, the rest made their move. Louie and his crew went ahead followed by Huey and Aurian. "We should check Santa's room. It's where he oversees the operations and it's his rest quarters." Aurian told Huey. "Okay!" The red triplet agreed as they hurried their way.

It now cuts to the basement as 2 duck bots are on guard duty. "All this guard duty is interfering with my sensors." A duck bot told his robotic companion. "Well go and find the master. He'll tinker you up and you'll be fine." It replied back. "Yes it's a-KSH!"

"What the-"

"POW!"

The 2 duck bots fell destroyed as Della is seen holding the head of a duck bot and Donald has his fist punched through the other one with it's core ripped off. "You've gone stronger." Della complimented. "We always grow stronger in every adventure." said Donald as Louie shushed them and took a peek on the right. "Too many of them..." He thought and then, he smiled. "Good thing I brought this with me." He took out a rubber ball as, "Mom, can you use your metal leg and give this ball a power kick?"

"Sure! Throw it when you're ready!" Della told her son as she got her prosthetic leg ready. Louie then took aim while Donald hid away and once ready, he hurled it and, "KICK!" Donald can hear the sound of the rubber ball bouncing around as he continued to hide. And now, he heard the sound of something being destroyed and once he heard nothing, he emerged and looked to see destroyed duck bots. "Really sharp arim you got Louie." Della praised the youngest triplet as, "There's the door! Let's break it and free the prisoners!" All agreed and headed to the door. However, "Damnit! It's some sort of lock in which you need to slide some card to access it and-"

"MOVE ASIDE! I HAD A BAD ENCOUNTER WITH A LOCK LIKE THIS!" Donald then got into rage mode and started pounding the door forcefully and the lock. Then, the door broke down and inside, "We're free!" An elf cheered. "Yay! No more tight spaces!" Another cheered as all the imprisoned elves ran out of the large room. Oh yes, the reindeers too and, "Good gracious! I take it that you are friends with my husband?"

"What the...Mrs Claus?!" Della and Donald exclaimed as she came out last. "Wow. I never thought she's real." Della whispered to her brother. "I know? We used to only believe Santa's existence when we were small." Donald whispered back as, "This is the first I'm meeting you!" Louie shook her hand as, "It is good to see you all and thank you for freeing us! We can take care of ourselves and I suggest you go to the central workshop! The menace is lodging there!"

"We know, Uncle Scrooge and his party should be dealing with him." said Louie. "And they won't last long! Most of the robots are in this area! Numbers will overwhelm them once they enter the sanctum!" Mrs Claus stated. "Alright you heard her, let's back them up!" said Della as they left while Mrs Claus gathered all the elves and reindeers leading them to safety.

Meanwhile...

After wrecking hundreds of robots with no scratches, Scrooge and his group reached the central workshop. There, they can see heavy machinery, workshop tables, tools and other stuff one can find in a workshop. And then, "I've been waiting." From the centre of the workshop in which a large tower made out of presents is seen, they can see a figure seated on a couch with his back turned. Pressing a button, the couch turned around and what they saw shocked Dewey and Webby...

"DOOFUS DRAKE!?"

"Ah...you still remember me despite the fact that I was in juvenile for more than a year." Doofus began. "Not to mention he's put on more weight." Dewey thought as Doofus clapped his hands and a huge army of duck bots appeared all over the workshop. "Bah! I bet ya retain yer reserves despite being locked up!" said Scrooge. "Absolutely!" said Doofus. "I broke out of juvenile and headed home. Only to reclaim my favourite possessions. But I also found something that is a great offense to me. Coal."

Ah yes, those on the naughty list don't get presents. They get coal for being bad and doing all the wicked stuff. "Wasn't I on the nice list back then? How dare Santa defy me!" Doofus then got angry as, "Since this old and heartless infidel defied me, I used my possessions which you are seeing now to take me to the North Pole! If Santa won't put me on the nice list, I'll just do things my way here!"

"That's not fair! All the children can't enjoy Christmas because of your selfish ambition!" Webby pointed out. "Of course! I get to keep all the presents myself leaving nothing for them!" Doofus declared as he laughed menacingly. "There will be no joy and happiness. There will only be sadness, crying and despair! AHAHAHAHA!"

"You never learn ya fat tub of lard!" Scrooge insulted as Doofus was pissed. "I'LL DESTROY YOU FIRST OLD BASTARD!" Doofus drew out a sword while Scrooge tapped the tip of his cane on the ground and a short, sharp blade is activated. "All of you take out tha robots! I'll duel this fat maniac!" Scrooge ordered as Beakly, Dewey and Webby engaged while Scrooge made his way up to Doofus and yeah, since he's so fat, he just sat on his couch as Scrooge met up with him on top and they clashed.

While this was happening, Huey and Aurian are near Santa's room when, "Hold." Aurian took a step forward and took out a wooden block. He tossed it in the hallway and, "VMMM!"

"I did not expect security to be this tight with multiple lasers." said Huey as Aurian observed the hallway. "Santa's room is near. Due to my size, I can slowly make my way through but it may take time." Huey nodded but also knew that time will be short when he felt urgent. "I need to take a bathroom break."

"On your right." Aurian told him as Huey noticed a door leading to the toilet so he went in for his bathroom break. There inside, he relived himself and after that, washed his hands as he looked in the mirror. It was at that moment that a light bulb appeared above his head imaginary.

It now cuts back to the teen and the elf as, "You had the nerve to remove the mirror!" Aurian exclaimed. "And I had the nerve to use it for science!" Huey then used the mirror and, "Whoa! The lasers are being reflected!" Aurian exclaimed as, "I recall we passed by one of the bathrooms. Should have a mirror in it. Let me go and find and then, we can get to Santa's room unharmed." Huey agreed as Aurian ran off.

A few minutes, the duo are seen making their way through the hallway holding 2 big mirrors with frames as lasers are being deflected. "The laser is meant to trigger any alarm." Aurian explained. "And if we tipped one, duck bots may come out and we're finished." said Huey as they walked sideways slowly with the mirrors facing out and deflecting the lasers.

A few minutes later, "We're through!" They cheered as they placed the mirrors aside and Aurian went to feel the wall. A few seconds later, "Found it!" He pressed a hidden button and all the lasers were deactivated. Even at the door to Santa's room, additional lasers were deactivated. "I told you I know this place in and out." said Aurian as they went inside, "Weird machine!"

"This is it! The power source of all the robots!" Huey exclaimed as Aurian went to Santa's bed and took out a baseball bat. "You do the honours." He suggested as he tossed the bat to Huey who caught it for he's ready.

Back to Scrooge and his party...

Scrooge and Doofus continued clashing as the fat duck got off the couch, drew out another sword and attacked harder on Scrooge. "Once I destroy you and your family, I will kill Santa Claus and his wife and all the reindeers! Then I'll enslave all the elves and make them do my bidding forever! This workshop will be my new home also and that way, I will never return to juvenile! And best part, no more Christmas for the world! Only for me! ME! MEEEEEEEE!"

"Dat tub of lard is getting more deranged an dangerous!" Scrooge thought as he blocked his sword strikes. At the same time, "How is this spoiled, obese teen able to amass a huge army?!" Beakly asked herself as she slammed a duck bot onto a wall, grabbed a dart that nearly pierced her and threw it back on the one that fired it at her. Dewey and Webby on the other hand were energetically wrecking tons of them with little effort.

And back to Scrooge and Doofus as they clashed on, "You know, I used to have beef with tha old man! But we made up an set everythin aside and wokked through to restore tha bridge that once connected us! If I were you and something like this happened, you would have done tha same thing!" Scrooge began. "But no! I'll rather do things my way old duck!" Doofus replied rudely and successfully disarmed Scrooge as, "Oh no!" Dewey and Webby exclaimed as they nodded at each other to back their uncle only for even more duck bots to surround them. "How is that spoiled brat able to amass a huge army?!" A confused Beakly asked as she grabbed the head of a duck bot and crushed it with her hand.

And then, "AHAHAHAHA! Killing you would be an honour! And then, I will the richest duck in the world!" Doofus cheered as he raised his swords up. "Curse me kilt..." Scrooge thought when suddenly, he smiled.

"Wipe that pathetic and fake grin off your face old duck!" Doofus ordered but he continued to keep the face. "I SAID-"

"Look behind you." Scrooge told Doofus as he looked behind and, "POW!"

"Never thought you'll break out of juvenile after I wrecked your fat ass during our showdown." Louie then punched his face again and kicked Scrooge's cane to him. "Thanks lad!" Scrooge took his cane and managed to disarm one of the swords sending it flying out. "ARGH! I will not lose to the likes of this family!" Doofus then clashed with Scrooge again as already, "HY-YAH!"

"KICK!"

An extended kick smashed through several robots as Della recalled her prosthetic leg back and whipped it out again kicking more robots. Donald jumped in and pounded tons of them in pure anger. Despite these efforts, "Incoming!" Beakly pointed at an army of duck bots charging towards them when suddenly, all of them fell into pieces. Every single one of them. "IMPOSSIBLE! MY ARMY IS NUMEROUS! MY ARMY IS MERCILESS! MY ARMY IS-" Doofus stopped for a moment as he stepped away from Scrooge and looked around. "No...it can't be!"

"Oh yes indeed." From the doorway, Huey and Aurian arrived as Huey swung the baseball bat left and right. "Lad, you found it an smashed it did ya?" Scrooge asked. "As expected." He replied as, "If I can't enjoy Christmas, no one can!" Doofus grabbed Scrooge but he countered it and used his cane to poke his face. "OWIE!" Scrooge then pushed Doofus as he fell off his tower. "AHHHHHHHH!"

"KSH!"

All on the ground gathered. "He's knocked out completely." said Webby. "Oh yeah! It's over!" Dewey cheered as, "Ho! Ho! Ho!" Huey and Aurian moved aside as Santa and his crew showed up. "Christmas is saved! Scrooge, thanks to you, you have saved my workshop and stopped that vile delinquent who's on the naughty list! With that, we still have time to-"

"Uh Santa." Huey showed him the time via his smartphone. "Oh...I...I don't know if we can-"

"Relax. We'll help." Scrooge assured. "Because this is what I'll always do to my family an anyone whom I treat like family." All agreed with Scrooge as Santa smiled. "Thank you again. But first, we need to get rid of this deadweight." All looked at the knocked out Doofus and the destroyed robots. "Dear you have deliveries to make. Leave the cleaning to us!" Mrs Claus assured to her husband as she and the elves started the cleanup. "WOW! It's Mrs Claus!" Webby cheered as Louie handed her the remaining jar of cookies and she ate a piece. "Mmmm...thanks for the treat!"

Then, Rudolf nudged Santa as he gestured outside. He looked out and, "Ah! The reindeers are ready and already, the elves have prepped everything." Santa told the family as he and Scrooge smiled at each other. "Like old times?"

"Like old times!" Scrooge told Santa via some earpiece as it cuts to the skies above Duckburg as Santa rode on his sled with his reindeers including Rudolf pulling it. Aurian rode along and behind them are the presents. And right behind the sled is the Cloudslayer as inside, "Special Delivery time!" Della and Launchpad called out as in the cargo bay area, "Go! Go! Go!" Donald chanted as he pulled the switch and then, bombay doors opened up as all took a glance at the city. "First come first served!" Beakly is seen carrying the knocked out Doofus as she threw him out of the plane. "Does he have the parachute on?" Huey asked. "Here's your answer." The housekeepr pressed a switch and a parachute opened up as Doofus remained in the air.

At the Duckburg Juvenile for Delinquents, "Sheesh! It's been almost 24 hours since a delinquent broke out." A moose prison guard told his companion who's a hyena. "Yeah. I wonder-what the, look!"

They went out of the office and saw Doofus land in the courtyard. "It's a Christmas miracle!" They cheered as they got to work.

Back in the sky, "Alright everyone! Let's drop tha Christmas payload!" Scrooge ordered as all cheered and threw the presents through the bombay doors. All over Duckburg, presents rained down as the landed gently outside the houses and apartments. Good thing all have the small parachutes tied to them. As for Santa and Aurian, they also threw the presents but only when they're near a house or residence. They even landed on top of apartments and left gifts in front of their doors.

After some time, all the presents are delivered as Scrooge and Santa said their goodbyes and once done, they went their ways. Christmas has been preserved.

The next morning...

After that cold and crazy adventure, it appears everyone's bummed from it. But come on, the day has come and in the triplet's bedroom, they're all asleep and bummed out. Huey was on the floor sleeping and his legs were on the bed, Dewey's lower body is dangling from his bed and Louie slept shirtless.

Then, "BAM!"

"WAKE UP BOYS! CHRISTMAS PRESENTS!" Della yelled so loud that her sons fell off the bed. "BONK!"

"OW!" They shouted as they got up. "No need to yell that loud mom..." Huey groaned. "Oh come on! Better hurry down! Plenty of surprises!" Della cheered and left the room as the triplets looked at each other confused.

Soon, they're seen making their down and Louie put a shirt on at least when, "What the-"

Yeah, everyone's all gathered around a huge pile of Christmas presents so much it nearly covered the Christmas tree as right now, Goldie opened a gift which is for Diamond and inside is a teddy bear. Pleased, she gave it to her as the duckling hugged it happily. "So many presents...let's open them all!" Huey cheered as they ran down to meet their family.

As everyone had fun opening the presents, outside, Santa Claus smiled at the family as he snapped his fingers vanishing out of sight.

Well that was an interesting and thrilling Christmas adventure the family had. No wonder Santa Claus 'gifted' them for saving Christmas.

Alright this is very important and I'm gonna say it for once.

First of all, I saw the finale. And I'm very, very, very disappointed and unsatisfied.

Definitely I knew all along they did not do their research. Seriously, Clones of Webby? Webby and April same character? And Huey's Arc being forgotten?! All these make no sense at all especially Webby and the clones because it contradicts their character! We all know in the comics that there are 3 girl triplets who are nieces of Daisy Duck but in the finale, they just screw it up using clones and wow, why did they think that Webby and April are the same character?! See what I mean when these don't make sense at all? Some contradiction they made...(I'm so pissed while writing and venting out my statement and drinking coke at the same time. Bear with me throughout my point of view due to unsatisfied anger building in me)

On the other hand, I'm surprised that Webby's birthday date was not mentioned at all and to think it was staged to infiltrate F.O.W.L! Well, I'm glad I came up with the dates! I do remember listing them in chapter 60. You all can check it out and like I said before, feel free to use the dates if you all wanna write birthday fanfictions.

In summary, this was the worst finale ever! Not because of the fighting and action(Which are the only things I enjoy)but it's due to the contradiction of certain characters and plot twists. Really I'm so disgusted. I always enjoyed everyone episode from all 3 seasons but the finale of season 3...well, worst finale ever!

Therefore, I am not gonna relate this crappy finale to this high school story! That's right! I am still gonna stick to my plans and ideas to continue on! Like a bold and determined fanfiction writer!

But sad to say, I've also made a decision. With the show that has finally ended, I can only say that maybe...this will be my last DuckTales story. Soon, I will immediately move to other areas like My Hero Academia, Trollz, Maplestory, etc. Also I need to finish up some of my stories that are on hiatus. And I must also say one thing, Ducktales 2017 is the best reboot show ever! (The only thing worst abt it is the season 3 finale)

I thank you all for reading and enjoying this story. As of now, I am like on the halfway point in the Second Year Arc and I should finish it and begin the next arc this year and soon, move to the final arc.

Oh yes, if some of you don't like what I say about the finale, so be it. We all have our own opinions about it after all and I know some of you enjoyed it and I won't say anything against what you all enjoy. Stay gold everyone.
