A/N- Sorry for the long wait! I've got this buddy list of sorts going with my best friend, SlinkyAndTheBloodyWands. It's keeping us on track with our fanfics. Anyway, about my the forum for my fanfics, occasionally, I'll post little spoilers or bits of info about certain fics under the appropriate thread. Drop by and take a look, if you like! Well, I hope everyone enjoys this chapter!
Chapter 6
There was a great advantage to be had with a geek as your best friend. He could help you with homework. Dropping his name almost always got you out of trouble at school, and it never hurt to try that tactic at home, either. And, most importantly for Quiverwing's latest adventure, he knew were all the after hours libraries were at. And that was Quiverwing's, Negaduck's, and Honker's latest location. An after hours library adjoining the city's college.
The group was busy pouring over old telephone books, trying to find the address to Laff's Toy Company. So far, they had had no luck.
"So this is how you so-called sophisticated do-gooders catch crooks like me? I must say, I'm both impressed and ashamed," Negaduck said.
"Why's that?" Quiverwing said, flipping through the white pages of a three year old phonebook.
"Well, I'm impressed that you lot would have this kind of patience. And I'm ashamed because it's almost kind of easy."
Quiverwing smiled slightly in his direction, causing him to growl hatefully. Honker shook his head.
"Well, I've got nothing. What about you two?" Honker said, throwing aside the last phonebook in his pile.
"Nothing," Quiverwing said, throwing hers and pulling up another one.
"Wait a minute!" Negaduck said. "I think I have something!"
The two heroes gathered around the villain, peering over his shoulder. He glared up at them, but, seeing as that was not scaring them off, he sighed. Moving the phonebook where they could all see it, he pointed to the address under the name Laff's Toy Company.
"146 Industry Lane?" Honker asked, catching his glasses as they began to slip down his beak.
"Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go check it out!" Quiverwing said.
"Hold on! Shouldn't we call Darkwing?" Honker asked as Negaduck stood to follow her out.
She whirled. "Yeah, Honk, cause he'd be really keen on seeing Negaduck here!"
"But…but it might be too much for you to handle!"
"That's why I'm here," Negaduck said. "Sorry. You're outnumbered."
And with that, both Negaduck and Quiverwing disappeared outside. Honker sighed.
"Yeah," he muttered, "we all know how reliable you were last time."
But with a shrug and a shake of his head, he followed anyway.
…………………
At 1:30 a.m., the unlikely trio pulled up to the truck entrance of a run down factory. Its sign tried to announce that it was Laff's Toy Company, but seeing as some of the letters had faded away, it said "La's oy pany." The three unloaded themselves from the motorbike and silently approached the entrance's raise metal door.
"There's someone in there!" Honker whispered quickly.
"How do you know?" Negaduck hissed back.
"Why else would that door be open!"
"He's got a point. Let's move in slowly," Quiverwing said, pulling out her bow and arrow and taking the lead.
Negaduck removed from his cape his trusty chainsaw, while Honker merely followed silently. Slowly, they made their way inside.
End Notes: Okay, so that is extremely short, but it's just a transition chapter. I can't promise that much will happen in the next chapter either…but the chapter after that will be interesting. Please review!
