Chapter 2:
It's the next morning and Gosalyn and Honker are sleeping in bed when Binki comes in running the vacuum.
Honker waked up and looked at the radio clock.
"Mom?" He asked.
He sat up and grabbed his glasses on.
"Morning dear." Binki said.
"What are you doing?" He asked.
"I'm vacuuming dear." She replied.
Gosalyn is a sound sleeper she just turned over and fell asleep.
Honker sighed and got up from bed.
"Well do you mind? Gosalyn is still sleeping." Honker said.
"Sure dear." Binki said.
She vacuumed out of the room, Honker walked out and closed the door behind him.
In the living room Herb was messing with the coffee table. Honker's jaw dropped to the ground. "Dad! What are you doing?" He asked.
"Fixing the old homestead son. Can't have my son live with standard livings." He said.
He hit it with a hammer and it fell to pieces. Honker just glared at him.
"I'll fix that later. Got to fix the hinge in the fridge. The creek is making me crazy." Herb said.
He walked into the kitchen Honker just stood there with a mad look on his face.
Morgana was making breakfast for everybody in the kitchen.
"How can they find anything in here? The cups should go over here. And the dishes should go over there. I'll fix it so it makes more since." Morgana said.
Honker watched as all of this is going on and sits down on the couch and turned on the TV.
Drake was sitting on a lazy chair reading a paper. "Ahem, so how's the crime over here?" He asked.
He was about to answer when he saw Gosalyn slowly walking into the kitchen.
"Morning babe." He said.
She just waved to him and walked away.
"Morning Morgana." She said.
She opened the cabinet and couldn't find the cups.
"What happened to the cups?" Gosalyn asked.
"Oh I moved them next to the sink. Thought that it was better." She said.
Gosalyn just looked at her weird and then shrugged it off.
"Okay, time for my daily cup of coffee." Gosalyn said.
She got a cup out and was about to pour her a cup when Binki grabbed it from her.
"No no no Gosalyn. No caffeine until after the baby is born."
"I need coffee to start my day." Gosalyn said.
"Sorry Gos. But coffee will hurt the baby. Here have this." Binki said.
She handed Gosalyn a cup of some kind of juice.
Gosalyn looked at it and sniffed it. "What is it?"
"It's grapefruit juice it's good for the baby."
Gosalyn sniffed it and made a gross face.
All of them are now at the hospital for Gosalyn's appointment.
Gosalyn is on the bed and they're listening to the baby's heart beat.
"Aw, the little one heart beat. Isn't it wonderful Drake?" Morgana asked.
"It's music to my ears Morgana," Drake said.
"The baby sounds so precious." Binki said.
"And loud." Herb said.
"Just like the chip of the old Mallard." Drake said.
"That's enough Bernice." The doctor said.
Honker walked up to her and laughed.
"Wow Gos. There's actually a baby in there." He laughed.
"Well I had a feeling that I wasn't eating too many burgers Honks. Why don't you say hello." Gosalyn said.
"Who me? Well okay. Um, hi there. Daddy's here. I'm just going to let you know that. I'm going to make sure. You get everything you ever need. Like love and understanding." Honker said.
"And Grandpa Mallard will shower you with toys a convertibles…." Drake said.
"And Grandpa Muddle foot will give you. You're very own personalized bowling ball and hand towels." Herb said.
Drake looked at Herb. "Well I'll get you a pony." Drake said.
"Make that two pony's." Herb said.
The two of them went on and on to tell them what they were going to get him.
Gosalyn kissed them both.
"Oh, our baby is so lucky to have great grandparents like you." She said.
"Hey, nothing is to good for our first grandchild." Drake said.
"I feel the same way sir." Honker said.
"That's good. Cause it takes a lot of money to raise kids. So how are you going raise money for the baby Honker?" Drake asked.
"Well that's easy sir. While I'm waiting for my business to take off. I got a job. A really big job." Honker said.
Honker, Herb and Drake are standing in front of a house.
"We don't want any." The lady said slamming the door in front of him.
"Oh you were right Honker. You have a great job." Drake mussed.
"But this exercise machine is the best one on the market. It sells it self. I sold one a couple of days ago. Well almost." Honker said.
"Almost doesn't pay the bills kid." Drake said.
"Hey give the kid a break Drake. It's not easy selling stuff door to door." Herb said.
"Yeah, especially when the door is slammed in you're face. Honker takes a lesson from the Drake Mallard sure bet sales man. Just one thing to remember. Never take no for an answer. Just watch and learn." Drake said.
He knocked on the door.
"Good morning ma'am." He said.
"I said we don't want any." She said.
She slammed the door on him.
He's at different houses and they all tell him no.
Drake then trips on the rocks and goes crashing on the machine, breaks it.
Then goes flying back. Honker and Herb ran to him.
"Are you okay Mr. Mallard?" Honker asked.
"Oh yeah. I'm just testing out the equipment. And it works like a charm." Drake said.
"Well you see? The machine is great. I know I will sell them." Honker said.
"Face it Honker there's no way you can raise a kid on that salary." Drake said.
"Well I'm doing this sir. Until my business takes off." Honker said.
"I heard that a lot of people are trying to start their own business."
"Well my problem is connections. Which I don't have any to get ahead."
"Hey, why don't you let me help you with you're career." Drake said.
"Uh, that's okay sir. I can do it my self." Honker said walking away.
"But Honker.." Drake trailed on.
Drake stepped on the machine again and it went off.
"Gee Drake keep it up and you might be the new Arnold Duck." Herb mussed.
Hours later Gosalyn, Morgana and Binki are at the baby store.
"Gosh, Morgana it was so nice of you to buy a crib for the baby." Gosalyn said.
"Oh it's my pleasure Gosalyn. Nothings too good for our first grandbaby." Morgana said.
"Not to mention to look around on Rockwood drive." Binki said.
"Ooh look at this crib. Aren't it cute?" Morgana said.
She winded it up and the top started spinning.
"Oh it's darling. And so is the jumper." Binki said.
"Of course I got to get you a baby monitor." Morgana said.
"Then you need a cradle, a portable play pin, a car seat, a rocking chair, a diaper bag and a changing table, a pacifier.." Morgana said.
Gosalyn looked around and covered her ears.
"Uh.. gee Morg. I appreciate what you're doing. But do I really need all of this? I always thought that love was enough." Gosalyn said.
"That's just the foundation dear. Then you got to build build build!" Morgana said.
Gosalyn sighed and watched her walk away.
Drake and Launch Pad are sitting in the back yard.
"I'm worried Launch Pad."
"Why's that D.W. Did you're burrito go down the wrong pipe?" He asked.
"No it's not that. It's Honker. How's he ever going to support Gosalyn and the baby?" He asked.
"Don't worry they'll be fine. Besides Diana is saving up a little money from the business. To help them out." Launch Pad said.
"It's going to take a lot more then cold food to make a difference L.P. I just wish that there was some way I could help." Drake said
"Stop worrying. You got to let them live their own lives." Launch Pad said.
"That's just what I'm worried about L.P." Drake said.
"The girls wouldn't get back from shopping for a couple of hours. Let's go bowling." Launch Pad said.
Back with the girls..
The basket is filled with stuff for the baby.
"Gee, Morg. How much more stuff can we buy? This stuff is costing us a fortune." Gosalyn said.
"Don't you worry about the money dear. That's what grandparents are for. Let's see what else do we need? Oh yes a stroller." Morgana said.
Gosalyn looked over at a nice simple one.
"Well I like this one. It looks nice, simple and cute and inexpensive." She said.
"And a total bore. What you need is the booster bogie." The clerk said.
She pushed the one that Gosalyn liked aside and pulled up a real expensive and shiny one.
"It has 4 wheel drive, snow tires, and a cd player." The clerk said.
"We'll take it!" Morgana exclaimed.
Gosalyn was shocked to hear that.
"But Morg I just want to take the baby out for a walk around the neighborhood. Not take it a cross country journey." Gosalyn mussed.
"You got to be prepared for anything." Morgana said.
Binki pinched her cheeks and walked off with Morgana.
Gosalyn rubbed her cheeks and watched as Binki and Morgana fuss over the baby.
Gosalyn sat down on the beanbag and sighed. "Little one you have no idea what you're getting you're self into." She said.
She sat there for while and spotted Steal beak walking in 'What's Steal beak doing here?' Gosalyn thought to herself.
She looked back at Morgana and Binki who are going crazy.
'Saved by the crime.' She thought.
She got up and sneaked out of the store.
Once she was behind the building she turned on her watch communicator.
Back with Drake he's trying to find the secret passage to the hideout.
"It must be here somewhere." He said.
Just then a huge screen came down from the ceiling, freaked him out.
"Ahh!" Drake exclaimed.
Honker ran to the living room to the screen and saw Gosalyn as Quiverwing on it.
"Steal beak is near the baby store." Gosalyn said.
Honker's eyes widen. "You're kidding me!" He exclaimed.
"No, So I'm going to follow him and see what he's up to." Gosalyn said.
"Gosalyn Nicole Mallard- Muddle foot! Don't you even think about doing that! You are 8 months pregnant! It's too dangerous! Let me and Honker take care of it." Drake said.
"What dad? I can't hear you? You're breaking up." She said making static sounds.
Just then the screen went black and Drake crumbled to himself.
"Hasn't changed a bit." Drake said.
Honker ran to the bookcase and pulled out a huge book, the wall moved.
"Come on I'll take you to the hideout." Honker said.
"Yes!" Drake exclaimed.
He took off running and him and Honker went into the wall.
They arrived inside the Hollywood sign.
It's covered with all the most wanted posters all over, a huge computer and exercise room with foam mats all over and pictures of her with J. Gander and Grizzlicoff.
Drake's jaw dropped when he saw it.
"Yeah, Gos wanted to make it her own." Honker said.
He walked into the changing room, Drake looked around. 'It could use some cleaning.' He thought to himself.
He put his hand on the jet and Gosalyn's voice came out.
"Step aside from the jet! Or else!" Gosalyn's voice said.
Drake just looked at it confused until 3 guns popped out of it.
He started to shake. "Oh boy." Drake said.
Honker walked out and pushed the alarm button.
"Sorry about that Gos put alarms on everything." Honker said.
"How did you pay for all of this?"
"It's free from S.H.U.S.H. They give it to her for free for working with them." Honker said.
Drake couldn't get this in his head. They never sent him anything like this before.
He just quickly shook the thoughts of his head.
"Well come on Honker let's get dangerous." Drake said.
Honker laughed. "Haven't heard that in a long time." He said.
They hopped into the jet and Honker started it up.
With the Gosalyn…
Gosalyn is looking at herself in the window.
"I can't wait till I get my figure back." She said.
She finally caught up with Steal beak.
"Steal beak, aren't you in the wrong neighborhood?" Gosalyn asked.
Steal beak turned around "Who are you trying to be?" He asked.
Gosalyn chuckled. "Can't you read? Look at the posters. I'm Quiverwing Quack. And you're stepping on my territory." Quiverwing said.
"What can you do to me? You're just a girl!"
Gosalyn gasped. "Really? I hadn't noticed." Gosalyn said.
She was just about to grab an arrow from her bag.
Drake and Honker finally arrived and Honker landed the plane safely.
"Nice going Honk man." Drake said.
"Thanks, I learned what not to do from watching L.P." Honker said.
The two hopped out of the jet and spotted Gosalyn about to grab an arrow from her bag.
Drake's jaw dropped when he saw her.
"Go… Quiverwing, you stop that right now!" Darkwing exclaimed.
"I'm fine stranger!" Gosalyn exclaimed.
Steal beak looked at the two. "Darkwing Duck? What are you doing here?" He asked.
"I was just in the neighborhood and thought that I'd stop by." Darkwing said.
Gosalyn just narrowed her eyes at him. "Darkwing, let me do my job." She said.
She shot an arrow at Steal beak and stuck him to the wall.
Darkwing grabbed her arm and turned her away.
"Hey! What's the big idea!" Gosalyn asked.
"We'll talk about this." Drake whispered to her.
As the two of them wore fighting. Steal beak used his beak and got free.
Gosalyn couldn't believe that he was gone.
"Oh thanks a lot dad. You let him get away!" Gosalyn exclaimed.
"Don't you dare talk to me that way young lady! Need I remind you that you are 8 months pregnant. And I am still you're father. So what I say goes. Now move it back home." Drake said pointing to the jet.
Gosalyn just grumbled to herself and got it in the jet, and took off.
With Steal beak talking to the head bosses on F.O.U.L.
"Everything is going according to plan. I got the pearl from the heist right here." Steal beak said.
"Good work Steal beak."
"Don't worry the pearl is right here and it's not going anywhere. You heard the boss. He's going to be coming soon for the pearl." Steal beak said.
"Okay Steal beak. It's a wrap, so I'm wrapping it up." The goon said as he put it in a bowling bag.
The two come walking out of the hide out and Launch Pad is out on the other side.
They ran into each other causing each other to drop their bowling bag.
"Sorry about that." Launch Pad said.
"No problem." The goon said.
They both got up and picked up a bowling bag and headed off to their different direction.
Steal beak showed the bag to the main guys at F.O.U.L. and it was a bowling ball.
"What is this some kind of a joke?" One said.
"There must be some kind of mix up." Steal beak said.
"Hey, that one guy most has the pearl." Goon said.
"I don't care who took it! I want it back!" The guy said.
"Looks like we got an offer we can't refuse Steal beak." The goon said.
"Yeah and even if we have to pull the trigger on what's his name. Where have I seen that guy before? Oh no! It can't be! Darkwing Duck!" Steal beak exclaimed.
Back with the others..
They all come walking in from the secret passage.
"Dad! Will you stop treating me like a little kid? I am 24 years old!" Gosalyn exclaimed.
"When you stop acting like one, I will. What were you thinking? Doing that when you are 8 months pregnant?" Drake asked.
"I was thinking that there's a crime being made and I have to stop it." Gosalyn said.
Drake just went on and on about the subject.
Gosalyn rolled her eyes and looked at the clock.
"I have to go to work. There's another meeting I have to go to." Gosalyn said.
Binki looked at her. "Gosalyn, you should stay here." She said.
"Mom, I have worked so hard to get where I am. So the answer is no." Gosalyn said.
She kissed Honker on the cheek and grabbed her keys and headed out,.
Binki walked to Honker. "Honker, I really think that she should take it easy. She could go into labor any minute." Binki said.
Honker just rolled his eyes and walked into the kitchen.
And are now sitting in the office.
"So, Gosalyn how's the account going?" The boss asked.
"Just fine Mr. Duck."
"Good, I'll need to see it first thing in the morning."
"You know Mr. Duck if it was me. I would have it done and on you're desk right now." Kelly said.
Gosalyn narrowed her eyes at her.
"I want it done good not fast Kelly." Mr. Duck said.
Gosalyn chuckled at that. "Okay, I called you all here to go over this new account that I just found out."
"I'll do it Mr. Duck!" Kelly exclaimed.
"Yes… Say Gosalyn since you're almost done with the monster movie account. Will you able to take this one on?" Mr. Duck asked.
Gosalyn nodded her head. "Sure Mr. Duck. It will be a pleasure."
"Good, the account is for Tom Duck's new movie. Secret spy."
Gosalyn gasped. "TOM DUCK! I love him! I know all of his movies by heart!"
"Good, then you give us some really good hints about it." Mr. Duck said.
"You bet I can!" Gosalyn said.
"You are now excused." Mr. Duck said.
As they walked out Kelly walked over to her.
"Gee, Gos are you sure that you can work on both accounts and being pregnant at the same time?" Kelly asked.
Gosalyn looked at her. "Look Kelly, just because I made the choice to get married and start a family. Doesn't mean that I can't do my job. And either would you! I don't tell you how to do you're uh.. job. What is it that you do again? Oh yeah butt kiss." Gosalyn said.
Kelly narrowed her eyes and watched as Gosalyn walked out of the building.
Later that night..
Gosalyn and Honker are at a restaurant.
"Can you believe it Honker? We're finally alone." Gosalyn said.
"Only because our parents are late. Maybe they got stuck in a tourist trap." Honker said.
"We're not that lucky. Where is that waiter?" Gosalyn asked.
"But Bill you know I'll be perfect for that role." The waiter said on his cell phone.
"Don't worry Gos, I'm sure that he'll be here soon. I hope." Honker said.
Gosalyn showed him a bowl of sugar.
"Sugar dear?" She asked.
"No thanks I'm fine." He said.
"No? But you always have sugar."
"I know. But I just don't feel like it today."
"So how do you think I feel?" Gosalyn asked.
"Hormonal?" Honker asked.
"You're just doing this because you don't love me." Gosalyn cried.
"Don't love you? Well I.." Honker trailed on.
"How can you do this to me? Especially after you did this?" Gosalyn asked.
"Whoa Gos, reality check. This is just a lump of sugar. Look." He said.
He picked up the sugar and dumped all of it in his drink.
"I'm sorry Honks. I guess I have been a little moody lately. My parents are driving my crazy! I wish that they'll let me make my own decisions." She said.
"At least you'll get to decide what you what for dinner. Waiter." Honker said.
The waiter finally comes walking up to them.
"How can I help you?"
Gosalyn looked up from the menu.
"Yes, I'd like to have…" She went on telling the waiter what she waned.
Honker just looked at the waiter and smiled.
"I'll be right back with you're uh.. food." He said as he walked away.
"That's uh a lot of food you ordered." Honker said.
"Well I am eating for two now." Gosalyn said.
The adults finally shown up.
"Sorry we're late. We have just finished unpacking everything we got from the bouncing baby." Morgana said.
"Yeah, they only did with three trips." Drake said.
"Well, I hope you saved room for the baby." Gosalyn said.
"Don't worry if not. We'll make room." Binki said.
The waiter came back with all of Gosalyn's food.
"Yum." She said.
She was about to take a bite of it when Binki shook her head.
"Tsk Tsk tsk. Take all that way. She'll have a nice healthy salad." Binki said.
The waiter took all the food away.
"But Mrs. Muddle foot I don't want a salad. I want real food." Gosalyn said.
" Remember Gosalyn, a healthy baby is a happy baby." Binki said.
The waiter came back with the salad and Gosalyn just sniffed it.
They're walking down the sidewalk after eating.
"I'm still hungry." Gosalyn said.
" I promise you dear. You can eat what ever you want after the baby is born." Bikini said.
"Then I'll be starving. The way I feel. I'm going to be pregnant forever." Gosalyn said.
"Trust me little Gosy. You'll be burping the baby sooner then you think." Drake asked.
"Dad's right dear. Speaking of the baby. Have you thought of any names? We can't call it baby for ever." Morgana said.
"Well Honker and I like the name…" Gosalyn trailed on.
"How about Drake Jr." Drake said.
Everybody looked at him. "Drake JR?" They asked.
"Of course. It's perfect." Drake said.
"What makes you think it's going to be a boy?" Binki asked.
Drake shrugged. "How can it be anything else?"
"Well there are 2 kinds of babies." Launch Pad said.
"So, what does that have to do with us?" Drake asked.
"Well I wouldn't be surprised if it was a girl." Binki said.
"A girl! Would be perfect! Just like Gosalyn." Herb said.
"I'm sorry to disappoint you Herb. But it's going to be a boy." Drake said.
"A girl!"
"A boy!"
"A girl!" They fought with each other.
"Honker and I are fine with what ever we have. As long as it's a healthy happy baby." Gosalyn said.
"That's right Herb. As long as HE'S a healthy baby." Drake said.
Gosalyn rolled her eyes and kissed her dad.
"Oh dad, you never give up." Gosalyn said.
They walked to the camper. Drake and Launch Pad stopped.
"You guys go ahead. Launch Pad and I are going to look around." Drake said.
"Oh okay. This will give us time to look at nursery schools around here." Morgana said.
Gosalyn and Honker looked shocked at that.
"Nursery schools? Don't you think it's little early for that? I mean the baby isn't even born yet." She asked.
"Never can be to early." Morgana said.
She started the camper and off they went.
"So, what do you want to look for first?" Launch Pad asked.
"We're not going to look around L.P." Drake said.
"We're not?" Launch Pad asked.
Drake shook his head. "No, we're going to go on patrol. Help Gosalyn out with it. Come on." Drake said.
The two walked off.
