When the rain starts to fall.
The next morning Megavolt woke up with a blasting headach and a total lost of memory of the previous day. When he had woken up he had first taken a few aspirins and then he had tried to call QuakerJack, 7 times and the idiot still didn't pick up. So MegaVolt had decided to have breakfast first and try again afterwards. When he finished his toast he was going towards his phone to call Quaky again. But before he could even pick the phone up it rang. It was Liquidator who said to his answering machine they had a meeting at the head quarters in an hour. This was one of the few times MegaVolt was happy they had a meeting. At least he would see Quaky their, maybe he was angry at him and he didn't want to pick up the phone to talk to him but not come when Nega Duck called him? He wouldn't risk that. This cheered MegaVolt up, now at least he would know what happened yesterday.
-----
"Hay, guy's! Isn't Quaky here yet?" MegaVolt asked as he entered the headquarters. Bushroot and Liquidator had been talking to each other with low voices. When they had seen MegaVolt they looked surprised and by his question even more.
"Don't you remember what happened yesterday?" Bushroot asked doubting.
"Nop, not a thing!" MegaVolt said "So where's QuakerJack if you won't tell me he will."
Before any of the two villains could answer the door was threw open violently. MegaVolt turned hopefully towards the door, but looked disappointed when he saw it was Nega Duck.
"So you knobs are their at least!" he groaned "And your still alive as well!" he said half surprised toward MegaVolt who looked at him puzzled and disappointed.
"What's wrong who were you expecting? Santa?" he groaned.
"Eeuh, well no boss. … actually I was thinking you were QuakerJack" he said doubting.
Nega Ducks expression changed "Are you kidding me?" he asked.
MegaVolt looked confused towards his boss, why would he be joking?
"You're not" Nega Duck decided "Don't you remember any thing about what happened yesterday?" he asked not sounding so angry any more.
"Eer…no!"
"You knobs didn't tell him what happened to the clown?" He said sounding angry again towards the two remaining villains.
"Eeuh boss we didn't had the chance, we were about…" the started.
"What happened? He didn't get arrested did he?" MegaVolt broke in getting a bit worry.
"You really have no idea do you?" Nega Duck said grinning weakly.
"Poor guy…"
"WOULD SOME ONE JUST SAY WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?" MegaVolt yelled loosing his temper. "He didn't get hurt did he?" he asked calmed down again.
The two other villains looked away both trying to force the other to tell the 3 one what happened with their comrade.
"He's dead!" Nega Duck said tired of waiting till one of those knobs had the courage to tell.
MegaVolt felled shock. Not those good electrik shocks. He was dizzy, angry, pained, helpless…. When Nega Duck had said this, his voice hadn't sound as usual. Not angry, nor threatening or disgust but almost sorry.
"I give you knobs 5 minutes to tell him everything. Then I want you all in my office." He groaned towards Bushroot and Liquidator. Then he turned back to MegaVolt. "I promise you we will revenge him!" he said with a more sorry voice again. Then he turned to his office again and left with his black cape floating ghastly behind him.
"What…what happened?" MegaVolt asked when he finally got the force again to talk.
"We don't know exactly. We were hoping that if you were still alive you would be able to tell us?"
"How do you mean if I would still be alive?"
"Well you 2 had a fight on the roof, while we were fighting at the 30 floor with a bunch of S.H.U.S.H. agents."
"Don't you know any thing?" MegaVolt asked still in shock.
"Well no not really..." Bushroot responded shyly.
"Only..." Liqui added doubting.
"What?"
"Well the only thing we know is that he fell down from the roof. Squashed to the street..."
"What I heard it was quite a bloody mess…"
MegaVolt felt he get dizzy again and had the urge to puke. He sad down in shock. "Who...who did it?" he asked after a minute.
"We don't know for sure… but we think it was Darkwing!" Bushroot said feeling sorry for MegaVolt.
"How do you know it for sure then?" MegaVolt said standing up again feeling a sprankel of hope. Maybe it was only a way to lure them out of their hide out, a new plan of Darkwing and S.H.U.S.H.. Maybe QuakerJack wasn't dead after all but only captured.
Bushroot felt his heart break when he saw the hopeful face of MegaVolt. Of the entire fearsome QuakerJack and MegaVolt were the two only one who were really friends. And not just friend but best friends, it had always amazed Bushroot that those two who were so different were almost inseparable.
"Darkwing brought his corps this morning!" Liquidator said sorrowful.
Out side the sun was shining and the citycents of St.Canard had no idea of which horrible dramas were happening are which painful action were still bound to come.
-----
"How could you Grizlicoff? You killed him? You killed him while he was defenceless and after he had surrendered." Darkwing was yelling furiously. They were in the office which used to be Hooters, but now temporarily Grizlicoff.
"You know I should have you arrested to help the other one escape justice." Grizlicoff yelled back.
"Escape from your madness you mean!" Darkwing steamed. "You had no reason to kill him." He said forcing himself to calm down.
"He's a dangerous criminal. Beside in place to be yelling at me you better help me get the rest of them."Grizlicoff said trying to get the blame of of him.
"I'm not working with you anymore if that is your way of acting." Darkwing said and turned away, his cape flapping behind him as he left the office.
------
How could Grizlicoff have done that? Darkwing still couldn't believe what happened the previous day on the roof. Grizlicoff had pushed QuakerJack form a 70 floor high building. Of course even the hoping mad jester couldn't survive such a fall. And just as he didn't done enough, Grizlicoff had wanted to kill MegaVolt as well. Darkwing couldn't let that happen. He just made the vowel a few days ago to himself that he, Darkwing Duck, would make sure no one would die. So he wouldn't give Grizlicoff the chance to kill Elmo. He had shot his last gas capsule to blind the S.H.U.S.H. agent and had picked up MegaVolt and dragged him as fast as he could to the Ratcatcher. Nobody had noticed them, everybody was to busy watching the bloody spectacle of the dead Fearsome Five member. Darkwing had used it as a clean escape and had brought MegaVolt to his lighthouse were he had putted him on his coach and left again. Afterwards he had headed back and asked one of the journalist what had happened to the body. When he heard it was in S.H.U.S.H. hands it didn't make him feel any better. They would probably use it for experiments or something else honourless. So Darkwing had gone to their head quarters that night and had broken in and stole the body. He almost had been caught but he felt that he own it to the jester. He hadn't manage to save his life even as he had promised that no one would die, so at least he could make sure the rest of the five could give him a honour full funeral. So he brought it to them early in the morning. They had been shocked but even if Darkwing was sure they blamed him and were seeking revenge, they had been great full that at least he brought the body.
Darkwing entered his house again. It was 6 o'clock and he was terribly tired. The most of all he would have wanted to just fall down and sleep forgetting all the odd thing that were happening in the city.
Gosalyn who had been waiting for her dad had fell a sleep on the coach in the living room and woke up when she heard the door close. She jumped up and rushed to him.
"Daaad. I know that the city needs you but now you're exaggerating." She said looking angry. But then she saw his costume that was dirty and covered with blood, she looked in shock at him. "Dad…what happened are you hurt?" she started babbling worried. "You're covered in blood." She looked at him worried.
"Don't worry, it's not mine."Darkwing said trying to calm her down as he sat down to recover a bit.
This made Gosalyn make big eyes and looking shock at her dad "What…what happened?" she asked.
"I didn't kill any one!" Darkwing said standing up again and going upstairs to go and get some sleep.
"But dad…"
"Listen Gosalyn please. I'll explain later. Right now I'm tired, I have the feeling I can't even stand on my feet anymore. There are a lot of things happening, bad things and this is only the begin. So please honey I need you to be a big girl now and take care of your self today. I will try to bring thing back in order as soon as possibility sweety I promise!" he said and hugged her when he finally had his pyjamas on and not his bloody costume anymore.
Gosalyn bit her beak but nodded. She had been right: thing were wrong, terribly wrong. She left the room so her dad could have some sleep and went back down. She hadn't told him, but he looked awful. He looked tired, angry and even a bit sad. She had no idea what was going on but now she was even more sure then before that she had to find out what was happening before their might happen something bad to her dad.

The funeral had been nice. Well nice for a funeral of a villain any way. After their little meeting they had all agreed to take a few hours to bury the body. They had took the body along and all headed toward the cemetery. It had been MegaVolt who had choice the place for the grave. Then Bushroot had his plants dig a hole and close it again afterwards. He even made some very colourful flowers grow on the grave. Then they all had been quite a few minutes when Nega Duck said "You might have been a irritating, highly annoying and terribly knob but you served the teams good sometimes and I swear we will have you venged." He said with a low voice and had taken ofhis had for a minute and then left. To any one else it might have sound insulting, but the five knew it was his way of saying he was sorry for what happened.
"Well one thing is sure it will be quite at the headquarters now!" Liquidator had said with a small grin.
"Yeah we'll miss you!" Bushroot added. They both looked at MegaVolt who hadn't said a thing since they had the discussion about what happened. He was just standing there with the bananabrains doll in his hand. When they had move QuakerJack to the cemetery it had fell out of his pocket and MegaVolt had picked it up, he had planed to throw it in the grave with it's master but for a certain reason he just couldn't. Now at least he still had something to make sure he wouldn't forget him (which in MegaVolts situation was very necessary.). The two other villains looked at MegaVolt for a while but then decided it was for the best to leave him alone. So they both left again. Hours passed and MegaVolt hadn't' moved an inch, he had just been standing there neither doing nor thinking anything. When he suddenly left after he had took of his hat a minute and swore he would revenge him. A little light bulb had warned him it would rain.
And so it did, after less then a hour the hole city was packed in dark clouds and drawning in cold rain.
