Author's Note ~ Apologies for the delay! Everyone you guys can thank Lori
who inspired me to keep writing this story, if not for her I would have
left for who know when.
Nosedive woke up in a hotel. He remembered the ball he had last night at the prom. He had so much fun last night, but as of now he was unaware of where he was.
He found himself somewhere in a hotel with all of the other ducks. There was one room all of which there were occupants except the women. WildWing and Canard were sleeping, Duke was reading a book, and Grin was watching everyone.
"Ah little friend", said Grin, "You awaked."
Nosedive nodded wearily.
"Have fun last night?"
Again Nosedive nodded.
"It was great. I was the main attraction, every girl wanted to dance and the food was great! Plus the music was slammin."
"Glad to hear that."
"Ya-huh, um Grinster buddy all ol pal, you wanna explain where we are?"
Duke put his book down.
"Well", said Duke, "We have been having problems with this team so we are going to fix it. We rented a hotel out in Malibu an-"
"Malibu?! We're in Malibu!? Oh man par-tay!"
"Kid", said Duke, "We're not partying until we fix our relationships up."
"What do you mean?"
"Well", replied Duke, "We have only rented this one room, Mallory and Tanya aren't with us and are monitoring the headquarters. So we have no heed to get back. If there is one room than we can't lock each other out, since we all have a key. And we can't go running away, and most of all the problems will be aroused and than a solution will be found."
"Um…okay?"
WildWing stirred and awoke. "Dive hey."
Nosedive's eyes immediately shined, "Hey Wing! Oh my gosh last night was awesome, thank you so much!"
Nosedive through himself at WildWing. The two of them hugged.
"Well what are brothers for", asked WildWing.
"You're the best."
Duke quietly whispered to Grin, "How come when we asked him how was it, we didn't get half of this reaction?"
"Because that's life."
Duke stifled a laugh.
"So Wing what are really doing here?" (Emphasis on really)
"Unfortunately", said WildWing, "Whatever they told you I have a feeling is right, we need to work out our issues."
"Yes starting now", said Grin. He walked over to Canard and gently shoved him.
Canard instinctively swatted him. "Go way, too early, going back to bed."
Duke looked at his respectful team captain babble on like an idiot.
"Canard", he said loudly.
Canard shot right up, causing Duke to struggle from laughing.
"What", snapped Canard.
"Nothing, nothing at all", said Duke.
"Let's begin this", said Grin. "WildWing and Nosedive please sit up on your bed."
Both brothers did so.
"Canard", continued Grin, "You stay on your bed right there. Duke can you please drag over two chairs for me and you?"
"Sure", said Duke tagging over two chairs.
"Now", said Grin, "Canard and WildWing, you two have been the best of friends for years, ever since you were children. Are you really going to spoil it now?"
The two buddies looked at each other.
"You guys are being immature", continued Duke, "I mean really, aren't we a little old for the silent treatment?"
The two friends laughed.
"So WildWing", said Grin, "Can you please tell us why you're mad at Canard?"
"Because he hit Nosedive, and because all of this ruckus was caused."
"Okay", said Grin, "Now did Canard hit Nosedive so he left a scar?"
"No", said WildWing dully.
"So basically it was just tempers exploding than right", said Grin. "And I'm sure Canard felt comfortable hitting Nosedive because he's known him so long, unlike a perfect stranger."
"Yeah I guess so, that makes sense."
"And Canard why are you mad at WildWing?"
"Because he favors and goodies Nosedive over everyone else."
"All right", said Grin, "But for the moment can we just set aside our different beliefs and be friendly and polite to one another again?"
"Okay yeah I guess so", said Canard, "Wing I'm-"
"Yeah me too", replied WildWing.
"Glad that's over", muttered Duke. Than in a louder voice, "You guys can work out a solution later."
"Yeah whatever", said Nosedive, "Can I go outside on the beach now?"
"Nope not yet", said Grin. "Little friend, we haven't solved your problem."
"I don't have a problem", snapped Nosedive.
"I beg to differ", said Duke.
"What are you talking about", asked Nosedive.
"Your life", sighed Grin, "Nosedive you don't have much fun do you?"
"Not with you preventing me from going outside, can I go now?"
"No", replied Grin, "But do you enjoy being on this team?"
"Yeah."
"Okay but do you enjoy the work involved?"
"No way! Who does?"
"Well do you think that its unfair that you have to do what everyone else has to do?"
"Yeah I guess its fair. But not fair at the same time. It's not fair to them if I don't practice and than mess up somewhere, but it's fair to me because well it's just not!"
"Okay than let's try this new method that will solve our problems", said Grin, "From now on Nosedive you can be trained by WildWing only, and no one else. That way WildWing will be able to give you one on one time and you can have fun that way. How's that sound?"
"Great", exclaimed Nosedive, "But Wing that means you can't work with anyone else."
"That's the beauty of it", finished Duke, "Nosedive will get a lot of training but in a little amount of time because WildWing will have to go train other people and himself. So Nosedive you'll have the entire day after maybe an hour's worth of practice for each event."
"And", commented Grin, "Canard wins and WildWing wins."
"That sounds great", said Nosedive, "What about you guys?"
The two buddies nodded and in unison, "Sounds good to me- us."
Three Days Later…
"Hey Nosedive", said Canard entering their room, "What's up kid?"
Nosedive waved from his bunk. Ever since Canard moved in and their whole meeting at Malibu it had been agreed that Nosedive and WildWing would get bunk beds, and Canard a single bed, all of which everyone took a liking to, especially Nosedive.
"Well nothing much", said Nosedive, "But if you hear Mallory start screaming, well just tell her I went out for the day."
"What did you do to her?"
"Well…"
In the hallway, "NOSEDIVE!"
Nosedive smiled, "I kind had some more green hair dye left, from my hair so…"
In the hallway, "MY HAIR!!!!"
WildWing walked in the room looking straight at his brother.
"What", asked Nosedive?
"You just had to do it didn't you? You couldn't just let it be?"
"Do I even have to answer that?"
"Well Nosedive", said Canard, "We better get you hiding from Mallory, so a movie sound good?"
"Let's go guys", said WildWing. "I think we can still make the nine thirty."
Canard walked over to Nosedive, pulled him off the bed and started tickling him madly.
The two finally fell on the floor laughing hysterically.
"Come on guys", said WildWing, "We're going to be late."
Canard picked Nosedive up for back ride, which Nosedive zealously took.
It was good to Canard back again. And this time it was the trio instead of the duo.
Nosedive woke up in a hotel. He remembered the ball he had last night at the prom. He had so much fun last night, but as of now he was unaware of where he was.
