DUCK AND THE GOLD (PART 2)
Duck had realized what was going on. "Get out!" he cried to the robbers. "Shut up you little green weasel!" the leader called. Duck realized that he was being robbed and was a runaway. And there was nothing his crew could do.
Duck's driver was panicking. "What are we going to do!" His fireman looked at the door. "If we could bust down the door...it's locked from the outside..." The driver looked around. "And how are we going to bust it down?" he asked. The fireman took a glance. "We might need to get some wood."
Duck had no idea where he was going. He was still on the right track, but knew that these robbers were trying to take him somewhere that he wasn't supposed to be.
"So, we just take this train to the boss. We give him the engine, the crew and the gold!" the leader said. "Then we'll get that big bonus!" the fat one said. They all lauged in delight.
Sir Topham Hatt was arranging some goods cars when he got a phone call. "Yah." he said into the phone. "Duck hasn't arrived yet?" Then he threw down the phone and called for his butler. "Get me my overalls and find Harvey! We have some hunting to do!"
Within 20 minutes, Sir Topham Hatt along with Harvey's driver were speeding down the line. "Duck hasn't arrived at the other station." he told the driver. The driver and Harvey had been down this line before. "Apparently this area of the line is famous for train robbers." Harvey said. Sir Topham Hatt's eyes grew huge. "GO!" he shouted as he increased the throttle.
Duck's driver had found some wood. "Now, we just have to break the lock or bust the door." he said. "Then let's do it!" the fireman said. They then started hitting the wood at the door.
The robbers had Duck going at 65 mph. His normal speed was 35 and at the most 40. Duck knew he was going fast. He knew he couldn't slow down and knew that trouble could happen at any corner. And soon it did.
He was approaching an area where the two tracks turn into one. Then he saw an engine coming right at him! "ARRGH!" the crew screamed. Duck shut his eyes. But just at the last second, the engine was diverted onto the other line.
"Phew." Duck sighed. They rounded a bend and went over a bridge. Then they saw a switch line up ahead. "Boss here we come!" the leader yelled.
Harvey and Sir Topham Hatt were speeding up the line. They were catching up fast. They went over the bridge and saw the switch. "Let's take it!" Harvey yelled. They did.
Duck was now going through and old forest line a lot faster than he should have been. Then he heard a loud crash. "Stop this now!" he heard. His crew jumped into the cab. They pulled on the brakes and stopped the train...and just missed crashing into an old building.
A man walked out of the building. "About time you show up with the gold!" the man yelled. The robbers walked out. "Yah, well about that-" Then they were cut off by a whisle. Harvey came right around the bend. And Harvey's driver, Sir Topham Hatt and a policeman came out. The officer walked over to the robbers.
"You are all under arrest." he said as he cuffed them. Then he turned to Duck and his crew. "Congrats. These are the most notirous train robbers on this side of the mountain. You will all be rewarded."
Duck returned the next day with a story to tell. His crew got money and Duck got a trophy. And the robbers were in jail. Duck decided this wouldever take gold with him!
