About ten minutes prior to Scrooge arriving...
Boone, Cross, Henry, Ellie, Reginald, and RHM are hiding in cover, watching. They had found that this factory was the kidnappers' base, and where they would bring Mr McDuck. Boone checks the time. It is 9:50. McDuck would be here soon. They all readied their weapons.
"Sir, are you sure this is a good idea?" Reginald quietly asks, armed with a handgun.
"Yeah, I mean, if they spot us, they'll kill Mrs Duck." Ellie argues, armed with an AK.
"We've been here for nearly an hour. If they haven't spotted us by now they never will..." Boone explains, checking his custom rifle.
"Fair point." Cross says, holding her AK at the ready.
"Yeah. Boone knows what he's doing Reg, saved my ass a few times. I trust him." RHM says, readying his plasma arm cannon. "Besides, if Henry trusts him, so should we."
Henry nods, holding dual pistols, ready for action.
"I guess you are right. It's just, how could he have survived? He fell at least two miles. No one could survive that!" Reg says.
"Well actually there was a case of a stewardess who fell over six miles without a parachute and she only got relatively minor injuries and practically made a full recovery, only having a limp in the end. Though she was in the stewardess seat and in a section of the airplane that remained intact when it was blown up. And the trees did break the fall..." Boone says as he gets a 'is explaining that really necessary' look from the others. "The point is, that it is technically possible!" He whispers.
"Focus! We need to be ready if we are to save them!" Cross reminds in a whisper.
The Toppats wait, Boone getting his rifle ready to line up a shot wherever he needs. After a bit, they are informed a vehicle has arrived. It is McDuck.
"Go time. All at the ready..." As Boone rests his rifle on his cover, staying low, the others ready for whatever happens.
The six watch and listen to everything unfold, from Scrooge and Della's reunion, to the kidnapper leader revealing his true intentions. What gets them off guard, though, is the kidnappers crowding in the doorway, and then a random kidnapper being sent to kill them, blocked by the others.
"Oh shit! I don't have a shot!" Boone whispers, unable to do anything.
"Then shoot through the others!" Cross argues.
"And risk hitting McDuck and his niece?! Hell no!" Boone argues in a whisper, panicking, before the gunfire is heard. Boone and the others look silently, mortified. Had they just failed? Then, they hear sobbing from, one of the kidnappers? He looks and sees McDuck and Della are unharmed. "What?"
However, they then hear the one gunshot and see he 'executioner' drop to the ground, the leader's right hand stepping forward to finish the job. This time, though, Boone has a clear shot.
He takes a deep breath, lines up, and prepares to fire, when the right hand is hit by a pink blur, he moves his finger off the trigger, looks up. "The shit?!" As they all watch the kids attack the kidnappers and defend their family. "Oh for fuck's sake!"
"Who are those kids!?" Cross asks.
"The nephews and friends. I told them to NOT come! I didn't even tell them this is the location! Stupid kids! They're going to get themselves killed!" As he watches it unfold, and the kidnapper leader about to shoot, he has had enough. "Fuck it!" As he vaults over and aims at the remaining kidnappers, and yells out. "That is enough!"
The McDucks and kidnappers look astonished as Boone closes the distance, none-too-happy, the other 5 joining as well, weapons ready.
"What the? The Toppat Clan?" Della asks confused.
"What are they doing here?" Scrooge asks.
"Saving your asses!" Boone remarks. "And I thought I told you kids to stay out of this! We would handle it!"
"It's our mom and uncle! We aren't going to let them die!" Louie argues.
"For god's sake, CAN KIDS PLEASE LISTEN FOR ONCE!?" Boone shouts in annoyance.
Dewey gives a look of 'told you so', getting an elbow to the gut from Louie.
"Well, this helps my plan. Toppats at the scene of the crime, as intende-" The leader starts.
"Oh will you shut it already!? This is half the reason I overthrew you and took your position!" Reginald says.
"Wait what!?" The McDucks are shocked and confused.
"What do you mean 'overthrew'?" Huey asks.
"Go on, tell them, explain your little master plan for revenge against the Clan... Suave..." Boone says.
The leader, Suave, laughs maniacally as he removes his ski mask, revealing a scarred face. "So, figured it all out, huh Reggie?"
"Actually Boone here put the pieces together. Better leader than I was alone, and infinitely better than you." Reginald remarks.
"But you explain it to the McDucks, since you thought your plan was perfect..." Cross says.
"Fine! I will! It was many years ago... I was leader of the Toppat Clan, well before any of these pricks ruined it..." Suave laughs. "For some reason, they decided they didn't need me, including my right hand man, Reginald. He turned the Clan against me, took my top hat, and threw me from the airship, making himself leader. However, I survived, and planned my revenge. I watched as you gave up power to that Duckmin bastard without a fight, then let this prick leading you now ruin the Clan..."
"I suggest you refrain from speaking ill of Boone unless you want your you know where removed first. And ruined in your mind. He saved the Clan to the rest of us." Cross says, aiming lower.
"Anyways, heh, I had a long time to plan my revenge. Oh so long. Then, I hear you come to Duckburg. I watched as-" Suave starts.
"Cut the monologue and just give a summary you egotistical moron!" Boone shouts.
"In short, plan is to kill the McDucks, frame the Clan, and watch them be shunned and destroyed. If I can't have the Clan, no one can!" Suave says.
"Okay yeah this guy is just crazy..." Louie says.
"That's an understatement. Now let them go Suave! And we'll let your death be quick and dignified!" Boone orders.
"Oh, you think you six can take me and my men on?" Suave asks.
Boone rolls his eyes, finger whistles... And about fifty red laser dots show up on Suave and his mens' chests. "See what you get for talking shit? And all of those are Toppat marksmen. They don't miss..."
Suave's men mostly just give up, dropping their weapons. But Suave just laughs, giving a crazed look at the Toppats, rifle held to his side now. "Oh, you think that will stop me? When Reggie dropped me from the airship I did nearly die, no doubt. But I was saved. I lost use of my spine, right arm, and left leg. For years I had to deal with it. Until, one day, about a year ago, a kindly Russian doctor lady came and made me an offer. An offer to give me back my life. To let me take my revenge..."
Cross, Henry, and Ellie are confused, Boone furrows his brow and holds the rifle firmer to his shoulder, while Reg and RHM start to make a realization.
"I forget her name, really. A bit too complicated to remember. So, she told me to call her, Doctor V..." As Suave gets an evil look, he drops his rifle, as his right arm transforms into a plasma cannon, holding it up, and firing at the Toppats.
Boone's eyes go wide as he realizes. "Get down!" As he tackles Cross out of the way, the others ducking as the blast flies over their heads, exploding against the wall behind them. They look at Suave, metal wings and jets shooting out from his back and launches into the air, as they realize.
"He's got cybernetics! Open fire!" As a hail of gunfire is unleashed on Suave and his men who do fight, Suave dodging much of it. Suave blasts at numerous Toppats who are forced out of hiding to find cover. A dozen are quickly taken out of commission.
The McDucks soon do free Della, but as they try to flee, Suave stops them.
"Where do you think you're going? I'm not done with you!" As Suave hits Dewey into a wall and walks over to him, cybernetic arm turning into a blade, preparing to impale the duckling.
"Dewey! You leave him alone you bastard!" Della yells.
"No worries lady, you'll all be joining him soon..." As he thrusts it at Dewey, who closes his eyes and braces, then hears a CLANG, looking to see Boone having stopped it with his rifle, the otter pushing Suave back and firing on him, forcing the cyborg ex-Toppat to move back.
Boone checks on Dewey. The kid is unconscious, but alive.
"Is he alright?" Della asks worried.
"He'll likely have a concussion, but otherwise he'll be fine." Boone picks Dewey up and carries him in one arm. "Come on! I'll get you all to safety!" He reports his plans to the others, who acknowledge, agreeing to rendezvous with Boone later as about 5 other members join him, mounting up in a hidden armored vehicle, which is large (pretty much an RG-35 MRAP APC with some differences).
"Where'd you get this?" Huey asks.
"Does that really matter when a murderous cyborg is chasing us?!" As Boone passes Dewey off to another Toppat who lays him down flat so he can be better tended to, as the others get seated, a plasma blast going off nearby.
"Point taken!" As Louie loads in, the vehicle soon loaded as Boone goes to the driver's seat, and floors it.
