A Disney Duck Fanfic Written By

Stef With a F

Disclaimers: Disney owns Donald Duck and Crew. Donald's sister is Dumbella...She will also be known as Bella Widgeon. Gregory Widgeon, Melanie Widgeon, and Cindy Ganderquack are mine. Please forgive me if I "Destroyed" any of the characters...if you want to "nicely" tell me what I did wrong, go for it...I would love the help, but please don't flame me.

Note: Though this story is still not strictly DuckTales or Quack Pack, I will admit, there are some DuckTales references. Also, to its spin-off Darkwing Duck. I mean, you know, Daisy was never really mentioned in DuckTales at all. And the version of Daisy I am using comes mostly from Donald Duck Presents if you are curious. It came to my attention that Dumbella is named Della according to one comic version and Thelma in another. Well, this is my own version, LOL. I based it from the cartoon Donald's Nephews, and I admit that I took a creative license on Dumbella Duck's background. But isn't that half the fun with fanfiction?

And I actually got this chapter done in less than a week, WOW! LOL! Please tell me what you think and thanks to all of you that reviewed in the past

Chapter 7

"Come on, let's watch some TV together. Let's catch up," Bella offered.

"Alrighty", agreed Huey.

Bella moved over and Huey sat next to his mother.

"Well, mom, can I tell you a secret?" Huey asked.

"What kind of secret and why can't I tell?" she asked with concern in her voice.

Huey laughed. "Oh, it's nothing, I just haven't told all the others yet. So, if I tell you, will you promise not to tell?"

Bella pondered for a moment there. No real harm in saying yes. If it was something bad, she would just do something about it anyway...those types of promises are meant to be broken.

"Yes, tell me," Bella stated.

"I have a girlfriend," Huey revealed. "Her name is Gosalyn, she's the captain of the Ice Ducks, a women's hockey team."

"She live around here?" Bella asked.

"Well, yes and no, kinda..." Huey answered.

Bella laughed, "Okay, so in the state?" She laughed again.

Huey nodded. "Saint Canard actually."

He grabbed the remote and switched the channel to The Ducks of Hazard.

"So," Louie whispered to Dewey. "What exactly is going on?"

"Well," Dewey whispered back, "I don't know for sure, but I think mom is staying with us."

"For a while you mean?"

"Maybe longer than that, she told Uncle Donald and Daisy that she doesn't have anywhere to go."

Louie sighed. "Ah, I see."

"Yup," Dewey sighed.

Louie shook his head. "Well, we can't allow Melanie to suffer for the sins of our mother. She seems to be a cute kid."

"I just really, really would like to know what kept her from us all these years...It just..." Dewey clenched his fist in frustration. "I mean, 10 years, and she obviously at least for a while, she had another family that did not include us." He closed his eyes, tried to hold off his inner anger.

Louie turned his head; he was trying to ignore that fact for the moment.

"It is going to be hard for awhile," Louie stated.

"But you are right," said Dewey. "We can not take our anger out on Melanie, it's Melanie, right?"

Louie nodded. "Yeah," he said with a slight laugh. "It is Melanie. We talked a bit, though, I think she has more of a Mickey addiction than we used to."

"You don't say. I mean, maybe compared to the us of today..." Dewey suggested.

"Maybe," Louie considered. "I asked her about her father..."

Dewey raised an eyebrow. "Hmm?"

Louie nodded. "Yeah, she doesn't seem to know where he is."

"Well, I mean..." Dewey started. "Mom is here with us, she obviously left him or something."

Louie nodded. "I thought maybe he was dead...but no, that doesn't seem to be the case. Maybe he left mom, like our dad left her?"

"Maybe, but..." Dewey sighed. "She did not do right by us bro. But, you know what?"

"Yeah?"

"You go tell me the heck you and Huey were chuckling about earlier about him and Gosalyn Mallard? What the heck did Huey do that you thought maybe Uncle Donald knew about?" Dewey demanded.

Louie just laughed. A different subject did sound good about now. "Well..."

* About an hour later *

Daisy opened the front door. She was carrying four pizzas: two deluxe, one extra cheese, and one Hawaiian Pizza (ham and pineapple). She placed three of the pizzas on the kitchen counter, and took the Hawaiian Pizza upstairs with her.

She came to her bedroom door. She tried to open it but realized that Donald hooked it shut.

"Donald!" Daisy called. "Please let me in."

Donald sighed in the background. "Just a second," he said.

Donald unhooked the door, and Daisy came in.

"I got your favorite," Daisy informed.

"Hawaiian?" Donald asked.

"Why of course Donald honey!" Daisy stated.

She placed her arm around Donald.

"It is going to be all right," she promised.

Dumbella better Hope everything stays all right.

* Back in the front room *

(Ducks of Hazard closing credits playing on the screen)

"Well, mom," Huey said. "Thanks for watching Ducks of Hazard with me. It's an oldie but goodie. I know I am famished, but what about you? You like Deluxe?"

"Yeah thanks Honey," Bella said.

"Not a problem!" Huey called back, and he vanished into the kitchen.

* Flash back 1*

"Mommy?" called five-year-old Huey.

"Yes Honey?" she responded.

"I want pizza for dinner!" he shouted.

"Yes! Yes!" shouted Dewey and Louie.

"Mmm, we had some just last week? Remember when I made some?" Bella asked.

"More pizza! Order some from Pizza Quack!" Dewey suggested.

"I have a better idea," Bella suggested.

"No. No, we don't want a better idea...we want Pizza mom," called Louie. "Please?"

Bella laughed. "Yes, we are going to have pizza. But I have no dough left, but...I do have some sauce left. And we have a loaf of bread, and some cheese, and some lunchmeat. We can make some mini-pizza!" "Doesn't that sound fun? You all can help me make them!"

"Yay!" the three young ducks said in unison.

* End of Flash Back 1*

Huey called back with a box of pizza, and a couple paper plates. He handed one paper plate this his mother.

"I'm going to go get Dewey and Louie and tell them there is pizza down here, okay mom?" Huey called before going up the stairs.

* Flash Back 2*

"Doctor, may I ever have a child again?" Bella asked.

The doctor smiled. "Well, I don't see why not. Just remember when you get pregnant again, take it easy, okay?"

Bella sighed but also nodded.

"Please don't tell my husband that I was pregnant. He never knew."

The Doctor nodded. "Just take it easy. Your husband is outside. Do you want me to bring him in?"

"Yes thank you," Bella answered.

The doctor left, and Gregory came in.

"Bella!" he shouted. "Are you all right? I got a call at the office that you an accident. Bella, how many times did I tell you to get rid of the motorcycle? Allow Wilson to drive you!"

"I'm all right," Bella insisted.

Gregory shook his head. "For now. We will talk about this later, but I think I really should sell what is left of that bike of yours. It is not lady like anyway."

Bella nodded. "Perhaps."
