Dark Beginnings

Summary: Based on the episode Time and Punishment, this is a what if scenario. But on more of a darker level, it bases itself on the whole how Darkwing transformed into the persona. This does tend to not be on a real Disney basis, so it was rated on a PG-13 level for later chapters. (Written in Script form)
Chapter One- Tragedy
Flashback: Around the time of Darkly Dawns the Duck-
Darkwing pulled the covers up to Gosalyn's chin. She had just fallen asleep, and he tried hard to not wake her. It was almost as if any maternal instincts that he had were kicking in. He leaned back in the chair and stared at her for a moment. He knew that she was the missing link in his life. He knew that she was the one for who would look out for him.
Darkwing- (softly) I promise you that I will not let anything happen to you. not now, not ever.
He then stood up and walked over to the computer.
Flash Forward- Dead Duck (who knows if this was real or not)
Gosalyn lied next to her father's side. She didn't want to admit it, but she was afraid that she was going to lose him. Launchpad came in with a few bandages. He walked over to Darkwing's side.
Launchpad: Are you alright?
Gosalyn looked right at him. She knew that he was scared. She knew that he tried to tell him to wear a helmet and he didn't listen. She knew he would never forgive himself if Darkwing didn't make it.
Gosalyn: Yeah. Do you think he'll wake up?
Launchpad looked to the floor, he then slowly nodded.
Launchpad-He will trust me Gos.
Gosalyn looked right at her father. She knew now was the time to talk candidly to Launchpad. She sat up.
Gosalyn: Launchpad, I want you to promise me something.
Launchpad: sure.
Gosalyn looked at her lap.
Gosalyn: If anything should happen to me.
Launchpad cut her off.
Launchpad: Now Gosalyn don't say something like that.
Gosalyn: Launchpad please.let me finish.I want you to promise me you will take care of Dad.
Launchpad at first was hesitant, but then he smiled softly.
Launchpad: I promise.
Gosalyn reached over and gave him a hug.
Gosalyn- you are the best friend we could ever ask for.
Present Day-
To Drake it was just a normal day. If he had known that it would be the last time he would ever see his daughter, he would have made the most of it. He would have also made sure that her last memory of him was not of the earlier argument they got into. But it was nothing more then just a day.
Drake- For the last time NO.
Gosalyn: But dad, you promised.
Just a normal argument that Drake would always lose, but today he seemed to win. Or did he?
Drake- Look you don't need a reason why.
Gosalyn crossed her arms and looked at her father
Gosalyn- Oh that original
Drake was at a loss for words, he look over to his faithful sidekick Launchpad, whom shrugged his shoulders.
Drake: (to himself) because. because you mean more to me then you think. And I can't stand losing you.
At that note, he turned his back to her and walked towards the rat catcher. She followed him close behind.
Gosalyn: But Dad..
At this point, something causes Drake to snap.
Drake- That's it, (spins around and faces her) you know I've had it, you go right to your room and stay there until I get back. In the mean time I want you to think over why I sent you there.
As he walked away he mumbled something that he would late on regret.
Drake- Sometimes I think I would be better off alone.
Gosalyn took that comment the wrong way, although she didn't say anything but she was hurt by his comment. She hung her head a little and up stairs to her room
Gosalyn- (in a sad tone) Yes dad
Darkwing looked to Launchpad, for whom gave him a look of concern.
Launchpad: I think she heard you DW.
Darkwing let out a sigh
Darkwing- You know that I would never mean anything like that, she means too much for me to want something like that. When I come home I will apologize.
He sat in the familiar chair that would lead him to his hideout. Launchpad did the honors and in an instant, they were gone. Up in her room, Gosalyn sat at the end of her bed, she scribbled something in a quick instant and folded it in half. She then carefully placed it on her nightstand. She then plopped on the bed.
Gosalyn- I guess it's true, I knew it all along, Dad doesn't want me. (Tears started to form) I never wanted to believe it.
She was interrupted by a knock on the door. She got up and wiped her eyes and slowly headed downstairs. She then opened the door. She was relieved to see her good friend and her secret love interest Honker at the other side.
Honker- (somewhat cheerful) Hiya Gosalyn.
Gosalyn tried to sound enthusiastic in what she wanted to say, but it didn't work
Gosalyn- Hi Honker. Come in
He slowly stepped in; he noticed that his friend was down in the dumps.
Honker- Are you okay?
She slowly shook her head.
Gosalyn- Dad doesn't want me.
Honker- That's not true. He.
Gosalyn snapped as she cut him off.
Gosalyn- He said so himself. What am I going to do? For all I know, he'll send me back to the Orphanage.
Honker shook his head.
Honker- I really don't think your dad would do that, he loves you too much and you know that.
Gosalyn moped over to the couch and sat down.
Gosalyn- I wish there was something I could do to make him want me.
Honker- Wait for him to come home, it's not like you can help him catch criminals.
Suddenly Gosalyn perked up with the idea her friend mentioned.
Gosalyn- Honker, that's a great idea. I can help dad catch Quackerjack and Megavolt, Oh Honk, you're a genius!!!!
Honker slapped his head
Honker- (to himself) me and my big mouth.
Gosalyn jumped off the couch and rushed over to the blue chairs.
Honker- Wait, its too dangerous. You can get hurt or worse.
Gosalyn just shook her head
Gosalyn- Maybe dad would want me more if I help to catch Quacker jack and Megavolt.
Honker tried to stop her, but his hesistation on saying so kept him from doing so.
Honker- Gosalyn, wait.
Gosalyn turned to her friend.
Gosalyn- I have to do this Honk, it's the only way that dad will know that I am not a nuisance.
In the blink of an eye, she was gone. Honker looked around the house. He had to get to Darkwing and tell him that Gosalyn was going to risk her life to prove that she was more than a mere annoyance. Without a second thought, he rushed out the front door, and ran right to the city.
~Within five minutes~
Darkwing was doing a good job of losing. It had to be three times in a row that he had been slammed to the ground.
Darkwing- This is going to hurt in the morning.
Megavolt- Give it up Darkwing, you'll just hurt yourself.
Darkwing- I never give up.
He sprung to his feet and made a mad dash at Megavolt for whom stepped aside and let him run into a wall.
Darkwing- Ouch.
Quackerjack, kept himself preoccupied by bouncing all over the roof top, avoiding Launchpad. He then hopped over to Megavolt.
QuackerJack- Still not giving in?
Megavolt- Nope.
Quackerjack- Lets see what Mr. Banana Brain has to say.
At this point, Gosalyn had climbed the fire escape.
Gosalyn- Good thing that dad has a tracking device put in the rat catcher. If he didn't I would've never been able to find him.
She had made it to the top. She was able to get a good look at the scene. But she did not like the scene.
Gosalyn- I have to get a closer look to see if dad's okay.
She tried hard to move slowly and not make a sound. But as if Murphy Law was a member of her family, she tripped and fell down, accidentally hitting into a garbage can.
Megavolt- What was that?
Quackerjack held Mr. Banana Brain towards where the noise came from.
Mr. Banana Brain- Lets go find out.
Quackerjack followed his alter ego as he led the way to the darkness. Gosalyn was having problems getting up. Her foot was stuck in a hole.
Gosalyn- Great..
Suddenly, a shadow had towered over her. She slowly looked up to see QuackerJack and Mr. Banana Brain.
Quackerjack- Well, well now what have we got here? Another play mate?
Mr. Banana Brain- We can use her for a get away. Grab her.
Gosalyn tried hard to free herself from her trap.
Gosalyn- Don't touch me, Darkwing will rip your arm off pal.
Mr. Banana Brain- Oooh I'm soo scared. Grab her.
Quacker Jack, did as his precious puppet told him. Darkwing had snapped out of his daze and stood up. He noticed that Megavolt was alone.
Darkwing- So still want more? Bring it on sparky
Megavolt grinned and shook his head no. Darkwing looked at him with a confused look. Just then Quackerjack came out of the shadows holding Gosalyn in his arms. Darkwing froze in place; he then attempted to charge Quackerjack.
Darkwing- Gosalyn!!!!
Quackerjack- I wouldn't move if I were you. Just let us leave and we will let her go.
Darkwing became defenseless. He had no choice but to comply with what they wanted.
Darkwing- All right, but just don't hurt her.
Gosalyn was disappointed. She wanted him to get her out of the mad jester's grasp.
Gosalyn- Dad, don't give in.
Quackerjack and Megavolt exchanged looks.
Both- (puzzled) Dad?
Darkwing bit his bottom beak
Darkwing- Don't worry Gos, I wont let them hurt you.
Quackerjack busted out in a little giggle.
Quackerjack- Oh man this is too much, we should have done this years ago.
Megavolt- Yeah, but we have a getaway to plan. (Points patriotically) to the top!!!!!
He started off. Quackerjack slowly walked holding Gosalyn.
Quackerjack- That's right Darkwing, one false move and your precious daughter gets it.
Launchpad was about to move in and take Quackerjack, but Darkwing stopped him.
Darkwing- He'll hurt her. Don't move.
Launchpad- But we can take them
Darkwing turned to his faithful sidekick and with a worried look in his eyes told him no.
Darkwing- I am not going to risk it knowing that I can never live with myself if he does kill her.
One at a time, the two villains climbed into the top. Quackerjack still held on to Gosalyn as he turned back to Darkwing.
Quackerjack- You know what? Just to make sure you don't come after us, I think were gonna keep this young girl. how about that Darkwing?
Darkwing made a fist and grinded his teeth.
Darkwing- Let her go, I promise that I wont follow you. I swear it.
Quackerjack thought for a second. He then brought Mr. Banana Brain into the picture.
Mr. Banana Brain- Oh if it were only that easy. Don't worry, we'll return her. once we have fulfilled all our plans.
Quackerjack got in and the door closed.
Gosalyn- Dad!!!!!
Darkwing made his way to the top.
Darkwing- Gosalyn!
The top was now spinning wildly. As Darkwing made a mad dash to it, he tripped. As he looked up, the top exploded. Right there at that point, Drake felt his world crumble. For the first time in years, Drake cried. making a fist he pounded the roof, and again grind his teeth.
Darkwing- (Softly) I should have done something. Now because of me she is gone. My baby is gone.
Behind him, Launchpad stood, staring right into the huge fire. He looked all around the roof. Pieces of the top were scattered everywhere. Not one sign of any life other than him and Darkwing. Launchpad looked down to the ground, tears had formed in his eyes, and slowly he wiped them away.
Launchpad- (to himself) I promise, I will take care of him.
He then walked over to Darkwing and together they cried. It was that night to which the whole world would change.Forever.
