Chapter III

My name is Dewey Duck, and I am a survivor. I have no idea where Louie and Webby are, but we have to find them. I don't want anything bad happening to them. They are my family, and family fight together. With the help of Iris and Dante, we're gonna find them, what ever the cost.

Louie was in a field. There was nothing but high grass surrounding him and there were no trees in sight. Then all of the grass burned to the ground making it look like nothing but blackness. Louie then looked behind him and saw someone in a hood. He walked closer to him but before Louie could lift up the hood, he woke up. His vision was blurry and distorted and he could barely stand up. He then saw someone familiar sitting next to him.

"You look like crap." The girl sitting next to him said. "Remember me?" Louie got a better look and figured out who it was. His vision was starting to clear up.

"Lena?!" Louie said surprised by what he was seeing. "Are you real?" Lena then rolled her eyes.

"Yeah, I just decided to show up in a prison in the middle of the Apocalypse instead of being dead like I originally was." Lena said sarcastically as Louie started closing his eyes. "Hey!" Lena snapped her fingers to wake Louie up. "Look greenie, you're really lucky to be alive right now. If you fall asleep, that luck is gonna fade. So I'm gonna need you to keep moving." Louie then started to get up and walk to a portal that was in a wall nearby. "That has to be one of Goldie's portals." Louie walked through it and it teleported him to the third floor. As Louie continued to walk, he felt a pain in his side. He held on as he tried to find the other portals. After a few minutes of walking, he began to faint and he started dreaming again.

In his dream, the guy with the hood lifted it up. It was his old brother, Huey. Louie was unable to say anything in his dream, so all he could do was listen to Huey speak.

"I know you hate me for what I did." Huey said as Louie started to tear up. "You're lucky to be alive right now. But out of all the people you could have dreamt of, you chose me. It's either because you miss me or you forgive me. It doesn't really matter which is right. The only thing that matters is that you make it out of this alive. So wake up Louie, wake up." Louie woke up and couldn't find Lena. He continued to try and find the portals.

Dewey, Dante, and Iris were looking all over the first floor for Louie and Webby. They checked every room but couldn't find them. Iris was getting worried.

"We have to find them before they get hurt." Iris said as Dante started flipping over objects.

"We're trying, but there are ten floors that we need to check." Dante said continuing to flip the tables. Dewey was even more worried.

"If something bad happens to them, I don't know what I'd do." Dewey said as they looked deeper into floor 1. Dewey then found a portal that looked like it was closing. He tried to go through but it was too late. Dewey knew it was somewhere in the prison though. "Come on, let's go check the second floor!" Dewey said as they all went upstairs.

Louie was walking to the next portal as he started coughing up more blood. He saw the blood in his hand.

"Damn it." Louie muttered to himself. "If this keeps up, I'm gonna die." Lena then came out of nowhere.

"Are you really gonna give up now greenie, we're so close." Lena said as Louie started walking faster to the portal. "Remember, you're lucky to be alive right now." Louie walked through the portal and ended up on the seventh floor. He started kneeling down as he started coughing up more blood. He fainted again and had another dream. This time it was of Mark Beaks. Louie couldn't talk just like in the first dream.

"So, of all the people could've dreamt about, you dreamt about me." Beaks said as Louie gave him him an angry look. "It's probably because I'm the reason you lost your brother the first time. The second time is your fault. Sure he would have left either way, but you chose to disown him as your brother. And it's already too late to take that back. You're gonna live with regret for the rest of your life. The sooner you accept that, the sooner you can wake up." With that being said, Louie started to wake up. He got up and started walking toward the next portal.

Huey and April were asleep, but Henry was still up. He had a knife out in case a demon showed up. April woke up and noticed Henry sitting outside. She decided to walk over to him.

"What's going on Henry?" April said as Henry concentrated.

"I'm trying to be lookout." Henry said as April started to laugh.

"You don't have to do that." April said as Henry was confused. "Me and Huey trained ourselves to wake up if there was ever a disturbing presence." Henry was still confused.

"How is that even possible?" Henry asked as April looked to see if Huey was still up. He wasn't, so she started to talk about it.

"We used to be assassins for a man named Mark Beaks." April said as Henry listened. "Huey always hated him, but Huey was also Beak's best assassin. After Beaks died, we escaped and we took all of our training with us. That training included sensing danger when sleeping." Henry was confused.

"I thought my uncle was Mark Beak's best assassin." Henry said as April was confused.

"Who's your uncle?" April asked as Henry answered.

"Falcon Greaves." Henry said as Huey immediately woke up. He started thinking about that name, and it wasn't a name he liked to remember.

Louie found the portal on the seventh floor and walked through it. He was back on the tenth floor, and he saw a portal in the wall. As he walked towards it, he coughed up more blood and fainted again. He had a dream about Huey again, but this time he could speak.

"Why do you hate me?" Huey asked as Louie responded.

"I should be asking you that." Louie said as Huey listened. "I don't hate you Huey, I-I miss you. I was just angry, that's all it was."

"Who you angry with?" Huey asked as Louie was confused. "Was it me, or Dewey, or Webby?"

"No." Louie responded as Huey continued.

"Was it Iris, Baron, Destiny, maybe it was Beaks?" Huey asked as Louie said no to all of them Huey then kept asking as Louie then started to get angry.

"I WAS ANGRY WITH MYSELF!" Louie yelled as Huey listened. "I wasn't strong enough. You left because I was too weak. If I were stronger, maybe you wouldn't have left the way you did. I don't know what to say except that I didn't mean all the stuff I said about you, and I'm sorry." Louie looked up to find Lena looking at him.

"You've passed 3 of the 4 test to surviving the demons blood." Lena said as Louie was confused. "You've learned to fight through the pain, you've learned to live with regret, and you've learned how to repent for your actions. Now all you have to do is live through this. But even though you've done this, you're gonna forget it all when you wake up. You'll forget everything except the pain." With that said, Louie woke up and forgot everything that happened. "No, you woke up too soon!" Lena said as Louie walked through the portal towards Goldie. As the trucks were getting ready to leave, Goldie got out of the truck.

"Get her to Rank 1, I'll deal with this." Goldie said as the truck started to leave. "I was gonna give you a chance to leave, but not anymore." Goldie then took out a gun a aimed it at Louie. Louie continued to cough up blood as Goldie shot the gun. As Louie was prepared to die, nothing came out of the gun. Goldie was confused, so she continued to fire until something came out of it, but nothing did. As Goldie was checking the gun, Louie took out a carbon card and threw it at her stomach. She didn't dodge it in time, so she could only watch as Louie threw another carbon card at her.

"I guess I am pretty lucky." Louie said as he continued to cough up blood . He then started walking towards Goldie. "You said you wanted me to tell my Uncle Scrooge you said hi." Louie then held a carbon card up to her neck. "Well I think it would be best if you tell him yourself." With that said, Louie sliced her neck causing her to bleed out as he walked over to a nearby tree to sit down. As he sat there, he looked up to see Lena standing above him.

"It's okay Louie, you did your best." Lena said as Louie began to speak.

"I couldn't save her." Louie said as he began breathing heavily. "I couldn't save Webby." Lena tried to cheer him up.

"You wanna know something greenie?" Lena asked as Louie nodded. "I'm your demon. You're gonna be with me for a long time. And we're both gonna save Webby together. We'll figure it out, like we always do." Louie started coughing more.

"I love you Lena, even in death I'll still love you." Louie said as Lena laughed.

"Well even in death I still love you." Lena said as Louie continued to cough. Louie then took out a picture he had in his pocket. It was of all of them. Him, Huey, Dewey, Webby, and Lena.

"I kept it, hoping we would all be together one day." Louie said as Lena kissed his forehead.

"And soon we will be." Lena said as Dewey started running up towards Louie. "You're lucky to be alive." Lena disappeared as Dewey got down to help Louie.

"Louie, are you alright?" Dewey asked as Louie coughed up blood.

"It's just demons blood, I'll be fine." Louie said as he tried to stand up. "They took her, they took Webby." Dewey was shocked to hear that.

"Who took her, and where did they take her?" Dewey asked as Louie tried to walk. Dewey held onto him as he answered.

"Rank 1, they took her to Rank 1." Louie said as he passed out. Dante then ran up to Louie. He checked to see if Louie was alright.

"He's still alive, he just needs 10 days for his powers to manifest." Dante said as Dewey nodded. "He's lucky to be alive." Dewey agreed as they took him towards the RV. Baron made beds for both Louie and Destiny so they could rest. Dewey got on his motorcycle that Baron held for him.

"So what do we do now?" Baron asked as Dewey looked at the horizon with anger. He then answered Baron's question.

"We find the last 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse, and we kill them!" Dewey said angrily as he started the ignition of his motorcycle. "Then we rescue Webby and we all live happily ever after." With that said, they started going to their next target, Washi Tori.

Huey, April, and Henry began to pack up their things and head out. As they walked, Henry was confused about where they were going.

"Where are we going mister Huey?" Henry asked as Huey didn't know how to answer.

"We're gonna find your uncle." Huey said as Henry was concerned. Huey and April were confused about why.

"Are you gonna kill him?" Henry asked as Huey laughed.

"No we're not gonna kill him." Huey said as Henry was even more concerned.

"I hope you're lying to me." Henry said causing Huey and April to be confused. "If you don't kill him, he'll kill you. He is the toughest man on the face of the planet. He isn't someone you can take lightly. He is also more powerful than Mark Beaks." Henry said as Huey was surprised. He wouldn't expect Henry to actually want his uncle dead. "So are you gonna kill him?" Huey answered.

"I'm not sure." Huey responded as they continued to walk.
