Nosedive stepped out into the crisp early morning air. It was a little chilly, but he wasn't phased. Back on Puckworld, the weather was mostly cold so this Earth chill wasn't much different.

"Nothing like an early morning sunrise to get a mallard up.", he yawned.

As he turned to go back inside, he noticed his shell pendent glowing again.

"What is it with this shell?", he wondered, "So far, when I sing, something happens, but what?"

He recalled that time Thrash and Mookie went into some kind of trance and that feeling in his throat was like magic.

"I wonder."

He turned to face the rising sun and he started vocalizing. That same haunting yet beautiful sound came again and the young drake felt the magic in his throat again almost as if it was part of him.

"Keep singing."

Nosedive wanted to pause, but somehow he couldn't. Was that someone nearby or his inner thoughts? Before he could think, he felt something rise from his throat and float out his open beak. The sound was more thorough now and a glowing sphere the size of a golf ball hovered in front of Nosedive's face. Nosedive was stunned as the sphere kept illuminating as the sound continued. Then Nosedive's enchantium pendent materialized and the sphere formed a pinkish white gem next to his Create spell followed by the sound fading along with it.

"Wow, that was weird man.", he muttered, "Who told me to keep singing?"

No answer came and Nosedive reached to touch the shell only to find it was no longer there.

"Hey Dive, you okay?"

Nosedive turned to see Wildwing in his pajama bottoms and a towel over his shoulder.

"Yeah I'm fine big bro. Just getting some air."

Wildwing noticed Nosedive's pendent and the new crystal.

"So what's the new spell you got?", he asked.

Nosedive came over.

"I don't know. It seems to happen when I sing."

Wildwing smiled.

"Hey, we got pancakes on the grill if you want any."

Nosedive lit up right away.

"Pancakes?!"

Wildwing rolled his eyes still smiling as his brother dashed up the stairs eager to change out of his own pajama bottoms.

"Dive, what would life be like without you?"

/

Far from the coastline of the seaside cliffs and even further underwater, the Raptor was carefully cloaked and hidden away, but inside Dragaunus was still fuming after the last attempt.

"I could've had the power to pound this world flat and the power source blows up in my face!"

He blew another drone to bits with his wrist laser and Charyus wasn't phased.

"A mistake on our part. I admit the target I extracted the information from was crafty, but we still have the power source to keep the ship running and teleport us away before anyone noticed."

Dragaunus' nostrils smoked as he turned Charyus' way.

"You promised me results and that you would have those miserable mallards out of the way. So why are you so calm and collected?"

Charyus smiled.

"While you were busy throwing your usual tantrum, I called in a friend from Dimensional Limbo and he helped me piece the formula together."

Dragaunus raised an eyebrow.

"So you have it then?"

Charyus held out a glowing amber crystal.

"More will follow, but so far the process is a work in progress."

Although Charyus knew how to operate machinery, he didn't incorporate it into his personal life. It would've distracted him from his true source of power: the mystic arts. Dragaunus looked impressed.

"So who is this friend of yours?", he asked.

Charyus walked over to the panel and pressed a few buttons. An overhead shot of Vancouver showed up and a large blip on the screen was moving towards it.

"He should be there momentarily."

/

Pedestrians fled and screamed as massive hovering mechanical drones floated through Vancouver devastating all that lay before them with laser blasts, crushing things in their extending tentacles and the authorities having little to no avail against them. The Migrator parked nearby and the ducks filed out.

"Oh great, another mechanical menace in our series.", Nosedive stated( breaking the fourth wall as usual).

Tanya looked concerned.

"Wow, these are state of the art."

Canard tensed.

"We need to take out the main control drone and the rest will follow."

And that was when the drones noticed them and attacked. The ducks split and each took on their own drone while Wildwing and Canard looked for the main drone only for it to hover out from behind building. Inside it's large glass dome head, someone or something was manning the controls sending radio waves to the other drones. Canard invoked his Thunder crystal and electricity crackled from his hands causing the drones to malfunction and dismantle. The main drone's dome opened to reveal an anthropomorphic penguin wearing a lab coat and goggles. It tapped a microphone that was on the control board.

"Testing. Am I being heard?"

His voice was hard to take seriously cause it sounded like he was talking on helium. The ducks couldn't help but try hard not to laugh. The penguin noticed this.

"Why are you laughing?"

"Your voice.", Nosedive chuckled, "It's funny."

The penguin checked his dashboard.

"Oops. Wrong setting on vocalization.", it said obviously showing it was male and embarrassed.

He tinkered a bit and tried again.

"How's this?", he called out speaking normally now and seeing it was set properly.

"Who the heck is this nut job?", Duke asked as he clutched his duck saber.

"I'm not a nut job!", the penguin snapped, "I am Professor Cerebellum the greatest of the intergalactic geniuses!"

"Oh great, an egomaniac.", Wildwing groaned.

Professor Cerebellum's expression darkened.

"Egomaniac?! I'll show you!"

He hit a button on his dashboard and the drones that Canard just took down got back up and were instantly repaired as Cerebellum's dome came back over him.

"People often wonder why install an auto repair system into the drones and I would say-"

"Shut it Professor Lame!", Nosedive called out.

Cerebellum pressed another button and the drones dismantled each other and reformed into a giant mechanical monster as Cerebellum's drone hovered above it.

"Now what's he doing?", Mallory asked.

Cerebellum's drone formed a head and attached itself to the body that had formed with the penguin's voice cackling.

"Now carbon based insects, prepare to be vaporized!"

The ducks instantly got into the fray while dodging lasers, tentacles and claws while Cerebellum noticed Wildwing's mask.

"Oh, nice accessory. I can hardly wait til I dismantle it for further studies.", he muttered to himself.

Nosedive pulled out his Create spell and quickly scribbled something down while Grin formed ice over the street causing the machine to slip and slide. A wire formed in front of the front legs and the machine tripped over. Tanya invoked her Nature spell and Mallory with Water, but Cerebellum's machine opened it's side to reveal saw blades on extending cables that cut the vines.

"You think a little water and plant life can stop me?", Cerebellum asked.

Canard stood tall smiling as his Thunder spell formed again.

"Not the water Professor Cerebellum. What happens when lightning hits water?"

Cerebellum then looked surprised.

"Of course."

Canard hit the machine with his spell and as it sputtered, flayed and eventually fell apart, the head ejected and Cerebellum floated away on it.

"People might ask about making the control center an escape pod and I might ask-"

He paused as he noticed a giant hammer form outside his pod.

"This is going to leave a serious dent and a major headache."

The hammer hit his pod hard and sent it flying and Cerebellum screaming while Nosedive faced the other ducks as he held his spell.

"People might ask, 'Why create a giant hammer and send the bad guy flying?'.", Nosedive said mimicking Cerebellum, "What a loser."

And then the robot body sputtered causing the ducks to tense up a bit, but they relaxed as the stuff was no longer moving. Canard sighed.

"Well we got rid of Cerebellum, but we need to fix this place up or there is going to be real issues."

"No problem.", Nosedive stated as he scribbled in his spell.

"Dive, what are you doing?", Wildwing asked.

As if to answer him, a strong wind blew in and the robot's remains cleared away with the damage around Vancouver quickly repaired itself.

"We better split.", Duke said and the other ducks agreed.

Back at the cabin, Wildwing took Canard aside.

"Hey, did you ever face that lunatic back in Limbo?"

Canard nodded.

"I've faced him several times and his inventions were pretty standard, but effective in what he was aiming at. Still, his pride is what causes his downfall which is why he doesn't think very far."

Wildwing smiled.

"Yeah, Dr. Droid was the same way."

Canard looked confused.

"Who?"

"He's a wacko that had the idea he was a robot trapped in a human body.", Nosedive stated as he came over showing he had overheard.

Canard noticed Nosedive's pendent and the new crystal next to his Create spell.

"So, looks like Dive got a new spell."

"Actually, I got it back on Lichtenstein.", Nosedive admitted, "I didn't feel like I should explain it to you cause I didn't know how you would react if I told you."

Wildwing put a hand on his brother's shoulder.

"Hey, I'm your older brother.", he told the young drake calmly, "There's nothing that can tear that apart."

Nosedive sighed and then started vocalizing. The moment he did, the other ducks as well as Phil, Thrash and Mookie( who happened to be inside at the time) started noticing.

"Wow, the kid's got one heck of a voice.", Duke commented.

"His voice makes my inner peace feel more at ease.", Grin put in.

Canard and Wildwing noticed all of this and the talk everyone around them was giving didn't feel right. They both noticed Nosedive's throat glowing and Wildwing felt something in his mind. He didn't know what it was, but it was almost like a force that made him feel uneasy. Canard tapped his side and the feeling went away just as Nosedive finished.

"That is something we need to keep firm control on.", Canard commented.

Nosedive looked confused.

"Why? All I did was sing."

"And apparently that works the magic.", Canard said firmly, "But what is this spell called?"

At that moment, the program on the television Duke was watching at the time went to commercial.

"When we come back on Monsters in Myth, we'll be diving into Greek lore on the sirens. Magical creatures that control with their voice."

That got Canard's attention and everyone seemed to get back to normal.

"Of course. That explains it."

The other ducks couldn't help but overhear the same thing.

"So now Nosedive has a voice that controls the minds of others?", Mallory asked.

"As well as heavily influence it.", Canard added, "But it only works when he sings so hopefully Nosedive here can learn to properly restrain it."

Nosedive clutched his enchantium pendent.

"I hope so.", he muttered as he remembered that voice he heard earlier this morning and it still haunted him.

/

Professor Cerebellum huffed as his pod opened up and he tumbled out. His pod had landed near a junkyard outside Vancouver and he was clearly not impressed.

"Shh, all my genius work reduced to rubble."

He paused and sighed.

"Well it's not like my inventions grow on trees. Although it would make my job easier if they did, it's highly improbable. At least I have a good idea about what I'm up against and that mask that one duck was wearing raises some interesting thought. Where have I seen that before? I can't quite place it, but it rings a bell."

At that moment a ghostly image of Charyus showed up near him.

"I trust you got a good experience with my issue Cerebellum?"

The penguin tensed and when he saw Charyus he looked surprised.

"Oh Charyus. Um, how much did you hear?"

"I heard enough.", Charyus said firmly, "But I'm a little disappointed Professor. Our agreement was that if I provided a way for you to leave Dimensional Limbo, you'd get my issue off my back."

The penguin regained his stature.

"A simple miscalculation on my part Charyus. Though that mask one of the ducks wore grabbed my attention."

Charyus' expression hardened.

"That is mine."

Professor Cerebellum raised an eyebrow.

"Why is that? Your kind can't use it."

Charyus' expression darkened further.

"You think I didn't know that? Have you forgotten that I was there when Drake DuCaine forged it and used it against my kind?"

Cerebellum quickly realized his mistake and looked apologetic.

"Forgive me Charyus. I ment no offense."

Charyus sighed and rubbed his forehead.

"I must say that your inventions are impressive Professor and that's why I'm sending you back up."

Professor Cerebellum looked surprised.

"Back up?! I am the greatest genius the galaxy has ever-"

"Zip it!", Charyus snapped.

Cerebellum did and Charyus' illusion snapped it's fingers and a robot head with flowing orange hair fell out of a junk pile. The head looked up and noticing the two other things got irritated.

"What is the meaning of this?!", it asked harshly.

"Otto Mason. Cybernetic genius and now violent criminal named Dr. Droid I assume?", Charyus asked calmly.

Professor Cerebellum walked over and picked the head up by the hair.

"Ow!", Dr. Droid complained, "Will you be careful?"

The penguin eyed the head carefully.

"Hmm, a little off my usual list of incorporation, but I can make it work. Although we may have to do something about that human aspect of pain in the head area."

Charyus looked concerned.

"Just work it out.", he said firmly, "I want that mask and you two had better or else."

Charyus' illusion disappeared leaving the two evil doctors together.

"So, Dr. Droid.", Cerebellum said still holding Droids head by the hair, "Since you're such a good cybernetic expert, I trust you can lay some interesting theories for me to try out."

Droid didn't look thrilled then again, what did he have to lose?

"Who or what are you pray tell?"

Cerebellum smiled.

"Me? Someone who tinkers in technology both in this galaxy and many others. Call me Professor Cerebellum. I think we are going to be quite a pair."

Cerebellum looked around the junkyard and already ideas were forming in his head. He looked at Droid and his smile got bigger.

"Oh yes, we're going to be quite a pair."
