Better Together Chapter 2: "Love (HATE) At First Sight!"
Donald Duck came into the living room to find it a complete mess.
"What happened here?!" He squawked furiously. Upon seeing Webby and Dewey smiling sheepishly at him, he needed no further explanation, "Both of you, to your rooms! Daisy's coming over in a half an hour, and this place needs to be sparkling clean by then! Louie, get Huey and clean up this mess." Donald gestured at the broken vase on the floor.
"But Uncle Donald, I didn't even do it!" Louie whined.
"I don't care who did it, all I care is-"
"That the living room is sparkling clean. Yeah, yeah, I get it." Louie got off the comfortable couch and went to go find Huey reading a book in his room.
"Uncle Donald wants us to clean up Dewey's mess in the living room." He stated plainly. Huey groaned but followed him without further complaining. The boys worked together to clean up the broken vase pieces.
"When Dewey cracks his skull open, I'm getting his inheritance." Louie growled.
Huey just rolled his eyes and scowled, "No, you aren't!"
The doorbell rang.
"I'll go get it!" Della rushed out of the kitchen and answered the door, revealing a female duck with a light pink coat and black bow in her hair, "Oh, hey Daisy."
"Hi." She said, waving a little. She smiled, "Oh Donald, are these your kids?"
Donald, who had just come into living room again, smiled, "Yep! This is Huey, that's Louie and the couch, and Dewey's upstairs."
Dewey, Webby, and Scrooge arrived as well, and soon everyone was crowding around the door.
"Oh, by the way, I brought my own kids. I couldn't get a babysitter willing to look after them…" She laughed nervously, stepping out of the way to reveal three girl ducklings.
"I'm April." The girl in the front said. Her hair was wavy and down to her waist, with a purple cap much like Huey's. She wore a purple sweater and indigo skirt.
"I'm May!" The one next to her greeted. He hair was spiky and she wore an orange sleeveless shirt and orange sweatband. She pointed at the remaining duckling, "That's June."
"Hey." June replied simply, not bothering to look up from her phone. Once they got inside, the adults agreed that the kids should get to know each other, so they went to another room in the mansion.
"What are your blood types? What's Daisy really like? Who's the evil triplet?" Webby squealed.
"June." April and May pointed at her.
"Eh, I mean if you think that tricking Daisy to donate to my 'charity', June's Kids, is evil, then sure, yeah."
"Oh Louie does stuff like that all the time!" Huey laughed.
Louie scowled.
"And I can pick locks with ease." June boasted.
Louie's scowl deepened.
"Wow, she's like you only way better!" Dewey said.
"She is NOT way better!" Louie hissed. After Dewey, Webby, Huey, April, and May went to go get snacks, Louie pulled June closer to her by her collar.
"You think you can replace me, you're wrong."
June snorted, "Listen Green Kid, I'm not replacing you." She smirked, "I'm just better than you."
"No you aren't!"
"Oh yeah? Everyone else thinks so! Just try and beat me!"
"Fine, I will!"
"And lose!"
"And win!"
Dewey came into the room, "Wait, are they gonna kiss?"
"Eww!" Everyone else in the room cringed.
"What?! No!" June and Louie spoke in unison, "Stop copying me! No, you stop copying me! Stop saying exactly everything I say! No, YOU stop! NO YOU STOP! Stop! I said stop!"
Both of them seethed.
"Ooooo! They spoke at the same time! OOOOOOOOOOO!" Dewey cooed from across the room.
Louie chucked an empty Pep can at his head.
"You may be the only person I hate as much as Tenderfeet!" Louie snapped.
June snorted, "I know the feeling."
Louie mumbled under his breath, "Guess this is how Uncle Scrooge feels about Glomgold."
"What was that?"
"I was just grumbling." Louie crossed his arms.
"Then do it louder." June glared at him.
"THEN IT'S NOT GRUMBLING!" Louie yelled, "YOU ARE NEVER GOING TO REPLACE ME, YOU HEAR ME?!"
He narrowed his eyes, "You're up to something."
"Why would I be up to anything?! I just got here." June huffed.
"Can't out con a con."
June smirked, "Except for this con." She grinned, pulling Louie's hood over his head.
"Later, loser."
Louie pulled his hood back up, watching red-faced with anger as she walked out of the room.
"Oh, she is going DOWN. You don't know who you're messing with, June Duck. I can get you out of the mansion just like I got Tenderfeet out. I don't care how many stupid skills you have, but I'm better than you! Way better! There is only ONE evil triplet, and that is ME!"
June smirked from the doorway, "Then guess you've got competition."
Louie attempted to chuck another Pep can at June this time, but June grabbed it in her hands and threw it at Louie, who yelped and barely dodged it in time.
"You were saying?" She sneered.
Louie Duck just grinded his teeth and watched as she walked away, frustrated with how he could let someone take his position so easily. But she was up to something, and Louie was going to figure out what.
He turned to Dewey, "She's plotting something and I know it!"
"Why do you always have to assume the worst in people?" Webby groaned from across the room.
"Because-"
"He's jealous!" Huey smirked.
"No I'm not!" Louie snorted.
"You like her!" Huey snickered.
"I hate her!"
"Oh give it time, by next week; you'll have a new girlfriend!" Huey and Dewey erupted into laughter.
Steam came out from Louie's ears and he marched out of the room, vowing to figure out whatever June was up to.
"You want competition?" Louie smirked, "So you want competition, eh, June Duck?" He took out his phone, staring at his reflection in it, grinning devilishly, "I'll give you one."
