Dark Louie: Thanks for all the support and love
Intro: Sorry to inform all readers. Since I am horrible at describing characters, I will be leaving where each character, planet, location, and vehicle belong in the show's continuity so you may get an actual good description of them. This chapter is a recreation of the episode, "The Life and Crimes of Scrooge McDuck!" So those who watched the episode know what will happen. Also this takes place in an alternate reality where the episode, "Let's Get Dangerous!" Happened earlier but Bradford working with F.O.W.L. didn't happen. Good luck with that. Enjoy the show.
Disclaimer: We do not own DuckTales 2017, Venom, nor Marvel, only the idea of making this story.
Dark Louie: Thanks for all the support and love. Now back again with the fourth chapter.
Chp 4: Hard Knock Year
Inside the money bin alarm's were blaring Louie ran down the dark hallways trying to reach the elevator he was being pursued and was trying to escape, he makes it inside and frantically pushes the button to the door's before they finally close. The duck boy could feel his heart racing as sweat ran down his head and gasping for breath as he was very much out of shape. "Hey true believers I know what you're asking, why is Louie running, did Louie come up with another scheme that backfired and he's paying for it"? "Well yes and no it is for the best interest of my family you see it all started a couple days ago".
It's been a whole year since the duck family has been moved out of duckburg and into D W's headquarters in the saint canard, even though they could still go on adventures it just didn't quite fill the same place with no money and no plain they were tight on money. The family had no choice but to get jobs. Donald got a job working as an accountant for a company, Della worked for tsa(Transportation Security Administration) at an airport but due to her rowdy-ness and hot temper she often got into trouble. Scrooge tried working as a shoe shiner like when he was child many years ago but that proved to be difficult since hardly anyone wore shoes. Launchpad often stopped by to check on the family and catch them up to date on what was happening in duck burg. Along with the kids because they were too young to get actual job's they decided to raise money by washing cars; it was to help the adults out. Dewey was the sign flipper and because of his mad skills attarcted customers, Louie was also helping him because he didn't want to put in the work to flip signs, instead that was Boyd's job with his mechanical speed
The kid's just finished cleaning a customer's s-u-v. "And all done nicely, no dirt in between". Webby said.
"Thank's kids". A male parrot said as he placed ten dollars in their jar and drove off.
"Alright how much have we made today"? Huey asked.
"So far thirty bucks' only about ten more car's to go and we should be set for today". Webby said.
"Nice work flipping there fellas".
"No problem standing out is just what I do Dew, sha-dewey"
"Remind me again why I can't be the one to hold the money"? Louie asked.
"Let's see um, oh yeah you can't be trusted around it". Huey told his brother.
"You don't know that".
"Yes we do". Webby Huey and Dewey all said in unison.\
"Ok then I rest my case whatever". Louie sighed.
"Look Louie I know you're upset about losing the mansion we all are, I mean the mansion is the only place I can call home but granny alway's told me that family is home and that's just about all you need".
"Yeah but what are we gonna do to prove our innocence"? Louie asked.
"We'll think of something Fenton and his mom are looking into so for right now we wait until then let's get back to work". Huey ordered.
Louie signed out of dissapointment and went on back to helping flip signs.
Back in Duckburg things weren't looking so hot crime sprees have begun to rise, Magica taxing folk out of their wealth in exchange for not being cursed. With Mcduck enterprises down, Glomgold has been promoting his propaganda and his company is on top. As for Doofus and his associate riot they currently sit in their new decorated office with a large frame of the boy's Gumeemama. His own indoor slide and a few beagle boy's as his servant's
"Oh Gumeemama if you could see me now you'd see that all I have done is for you".
"Mr. Doofus, you are receiving a call from Dr. Bulba". One beagle informed me.
Doofus pushed a mother accept button on his laptop and on the other end a massive male bull on a lab coat appeared. "Ah Mr. drake good to finally meet you".
"Likewise now let's talk business. I've given you the necessary funding for your secret project, is it almost ready"?
"Yes however I'm limited to a very certain number of members and require some assistance".
"I see very well then lucky for you I now have one of duckburgs best minds working under me, go ahead move your equipment down here and let's get started, Don't you dare be late". Doofus spoke in a demonic voice.
"Uh yes sir, of course". With that bulba quickly hung up.
Gyro and Manny were currently in their lab, even with Scrooge relinquished of his riches Gyro however was still required to work under Doofus; not like he was really given a choice in the first place. The two lab workers kept tss as bs on the symbionts after studying it so far it was like a living being so it needs food to keep it at bay. At first they didn't know what to feed it so they tried a bunch of things until they found out it loved chocolate. Gyro always had Manny feed it because last time he tried it nearly took his arm off. Gyro and Manny were tasked with finding a suitable host for the black symbiote so they've tried using the beagle boy's, they have gone through alot of them and none were a success they were either hospitalized or scarred mentally.
The last beagle boy is spat out against a wall shaking like a leaf from trying to merge with it.
"Another experiment failed, come one".
Clap clap(We can't keep Subject noir on containment we don't find a suitable host it won't survive").
"I know that Manuel uh we've been trying so hard, haven't left this lab in day's".
Manny slumped over and went over to sit down.
"I know my friend if we weren't stuck working for this deranged grandmama's boy I-"
"You'd what exactly"!
Gyro freezes in fear to see Doofus behind him, I'd say what a great person he is".
"LIAR". Brown tendrils shoot from Doofus' back and pinned the chicken against a wall making Manny flinch in fear.
"Listen up boys, we have a guest coming to Duckburg and requires your assistance".
"Why yes of course we'll help Mr. Doofus".
"Ah-ah-ah what are you to call me now"?
"I mean yes almighty Duke of Doofuses".
Doofus releases Gyro and leaves the lab. Manny crawls over towards Gyro and the two hug each other in fear but they snap out of it when the black symbiote smashes against the case.
Back at D-W's headquarters the duck family each piled in after a hard day's work. They weren't tired just incompetant especially Della who got multiple strikes for tackling a couple of passengers for setting off the security checkpoint. Donald grew accustomed to his job but would often get slumped from keeping track of numbers all day. Launchpad came inside with pancakes to lift everyone's spirit's. "Guess who's in the mood for flap jack's sure to turn all those frowns upside down".
"Thanks' L-P but maybe later". Donald said.
"More for me then". Launchpad walk's off eating the hotcakes and licking syrup from his hands.
The kid's came in all slumped after a hard day's holding their money jar. "We're back". Huey said.
"Hey kids, how was the car wash"? Della asked.
"It went great, we made a pretty decent haul today by hitting our goal of a hundred bucks". Boyd answered.
"Thank you kids, I'm so proud that you want to help out". Scrooge said.
"Well this was fun i'm gonna rest up a bit". Louie said stretching and yawning while walking off.
"Is he alright"? Boyd asked.
"Yeah he's alright it's just this past year has been hard on him". Donald asnwered.
"Yeah but I feel like something else is bothering him, maybe I should talk to him". Della said.
"Give it time lass he'll come to one of us when he's ready".
Louie found a private spot for himself; he pulled out his phone to make a facetime call to his significant other. After a couple of seconds the other end picked up and he was met with Lena's face.
"Green bean".
"Shadow queen hey".
"How'd it go with the carwash"?
"Pretty good tried to embezzle some of it for myself but Huey had Boyd keep tabs on me".
Lena giggled at this. "Oh man Lou, they're making sure you're on your best behavior".
"I wouldn't be lying if I said I didn't miss being in your lovely magical arm's".
"I can't believe it's been a year geez I miss my little green sharpie".
"I just don't know what to do Lena, we need evidence to prove our worth and we have only six months left, I don't know if I can see an angle out of this".
"Yeah you mentioned something about a deed if you could get your hands on it somehow then-". Said Lena.
"Wait a minute, that's it. I just got the deed as a form of evidence. I know my way around the bin and I've broken in there before to steal the time tubb a sheet of paper should be no different, thanks babe". Said Louie before Lena could say anything Louie hung up.
Boyd was sitting by himself playing with a paddle ball until he was pulled aside by Louie. "Hey Boyd buddy cancel all your plan's tonight you and I are going on a little field trip".
Late one night while everyone was asleep Louie and Boyd sneak outside before the robo parrot boy activates his thrusters and Louie hop's on his back and the two take off heading back to duck burg.
Back in the city Taurus Bulba arrived with all the equipment for his project Gyro and Manny wasted no time working on it.
"How soon before this ramrod is up and running"? Doofus asked.
"With Gyro's help and your company's technology, about eight or nine hour's". Bulba said.
"Hmm no rush but I don't want any lolly-gagging from you up there". Doofus said in a demonic voice.
"Y...yes sir". Bulba said,
Doofus steps outside the lab Riot then sprouts from him.
"There's no need to worry friend, the machine will be up running. I am the richest duck in the world, and have two of the most brilliant minds working under me". Said Doofus.
"They'd better hurry because I have waited a whole year while you have gotten what you wanted". Riot says in an inpatient tone.
"They say good things come to those who wait, why don't we treat ourselves to some of the world's finest chocolate mousse"? Asked Doofus.
"Very well but as long as it's not that one chef with the eyepatch after that last batch of chocolate pudding I've been holding myself back from taking his other eye". Said Riot.
Louie and Boyd had just entered the city of duck burg they were shocked to see what had come of their home after a year.
"This is terrible, I hope my parents are ok, I really miss them". Boyd said.
Louie felt for the robot companion, he helped him find a home and a family so he felt obligated to fix this so he can see them again.
"Don't worry you'll see them again once I get that deed back everything will go back to normal". Louie said.
"Really"?
"Guarantee you'll be in the warm embraces of your parents and I will be rolling in the gold in Uncle Scrooge's bin". Louie said.
Feeling much better after Louie's words, Boyd is even more determined to get their job done. The duo finally reached the bin. Boyd flew toward a window and opened up using his laser eyes to create a circular opening allowing them to enter.
"Ok we're in Boyd can you do a thorough scan of the building and locate the deed"? Louie asked.
Boyd nodded and started to analyze the structure of the premises. "According to my readings the deed is located in Doofuses office, luckily it's vacant so we should be able to slip in and slip out.
"Ok then let's get it". Said Louie.
The boys crept down the halls toward the office, careful not to make a sound when they heard footsteps coming their way. Boyd pulled Louie into a nearby closet coming their way we're a couple of beagle boys wearing security shirts, one of them was eating a burrito.
"What are we doin". Beagle 1 asked.
"I thought I smelled soemthing" Beagle 2 said. He turned to Beagle 3 in irritation because he was smacking a burrito.
"Sorry". Said beagle 3.
Beagle 2 began sniffing around till he got a whiff and slowly approached the closet. Louie had sweat running down his head while Boyd placed his hand over his beak. Right before beagle 2 could open the door beagle 3 let out one gnarly fart forcing all three k9's to cover their nose.
"Oh for crying out loud, really man, really". Beagle 1 said.
The three began to walk back down the hall, once the coast was clear Louie and Boyd exited the closet. They made their way to the office door and went inside, Boyd extended his robo arm's to stretch across the room and grab the deed and safely pulled it back. "Louie we did it now let's get out of, huh Louie, Louie"?
"No way Doofus has an actual pep fountain in here", He stuck his hand inside for a taste. "And it's cherry pep".
"Louie we don't have time, I have the deed now let's go". Boyd said.
"Just one sec I wanna take a sample back, after the trip I'm parched". Louie said.
"Louie seriously we can get pep at a store now come on before". Boyd is cut off because he's hit with a cattle prod his eyes black out and crashes to the ground.
Standing behind him was a massive looking beagle boy wearing shades and a black suit with an ear piece. This guy was Doofuses head of security. Louie backed up out of fear as the head guard approached him. Louie splashed the soda in his face, stunning him. Louie picked up the deed and tried to run off but not before the guard recovers and grabs Louie by his hoodie holding him up.
"You're gonna get it now brat". He reeled his fist back about to punch him when suddenly he felt a jolt of electricity course through his body making him drop Louie".
"Louie run now". Said Boyd.
The green triplet didn't want to but this was probably his only shot he nodded and ran out the office racing through the halls.
The guard staggers to his feet before reporting into his walkie talkie. "Beagle listens to intruder inside the bin he has the deed, I repeat he has the deed". The alarm was then activated.
Now
"And that brings us to where we are now".
The elevator comes to a stop bringing Louie to Gyro's lab. Louie then saw a strange looking machine it was currently in development and wondered what it was. "Green nephew". Louie turn's to see Gyro coming out of the corner and he looked tattered and tired.
"Gyro Oh man what happened to you"?
"Quarantine that's what Manny and I have been down here working non stop never seeing the light of day, the dark of the moon, or the wet of the rain. Now he's got me building some kind of contraption for him, by the way what are you doing down here"?
"Well I sort of snuck in here with Boyd and tried to steal the deed back". Louie answered.
"Is that what those alarms were I was hoping somebody would come to my rescue".
Suddenly the elevator started to ding when someone was coming. "Quickly hide". Gyro picked up the duckling and hid him under a table. The security head and a couple other beagles marched in.
"Hey fellas".
"We got an intruder in the building you see anything"?
"Nope wall's tech and experiments is all I see, including a bunch of muscle bound mangy hooligan's". Said Gyro in a smug tone.
One guard grab's Gyro by the collar of his tattered shirt growling out of anger. "What you call us wise beak"? Said security beagle.
"Oh and apparently you're deaf to". Gyro said.
That was the last straw the beagle punched Gyro into a shelf making all the item's on top fall off and crash onto the container holding the black symbiote causing it to be set free, Louie was right next to it and he got spooked right out his hiding spot.
"Hey there he is, get him". The security head said.
"Before they could touch him the black symbiote jump's onto Louie and merges into his body making Louie feel uncomfortable.
"Oh man this is gross".
Suddenly a black tendril shoots Louie's back hitting both guard's. Louie's body then starts to move on it's own toward the window he busted through its cousin water to spill out, Louie swam through the water before coming to the surface exiting the lab onto dry land.
"Oh boy what a rush wait Boyd, oh man I can't leave him there but I gotta get the deed to the family, Boyd buddy hang on I'll be back". Louie begins running off.
The ruckus was enough to call the attention of Doofus. "Who did this"?
"Sir it was a duck in a green hoodie he took the deed". The head guard explained.
Doofus let out a deep violent roar. "Well don't just stand there go find him and the deed and bring them to me".
He nodded and called for a search party to assist him.
"Sir we also found this robot in the office" Said a security beagle.
"Ah Boyd my so-called unreal brother, You're going to help me with something". Doofus started to speak in a demonic voice.
And so it begins Louie now has the deed back along with a amorphous guest, but now Doofuses forces are after him will he survive the night will he win his family's fortune back. Find out next time. Side note Venom Let there Be Carnage is out in theaters if you haven't seen it check it out.
