Summary/disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Duck and Mallard. Enjoy the 2000-word chapter. I don't own Ducktails, Disney and Jymn Magon do.

(Duckberg, Downtown.)

Marvin and the others had finished digging through the treasure chests a bit after they had returned from the theater….

That however, had left Marvin bored since there was now nothing to do.

His mother was off on a trip and his brothers, cousin and father were off on another adventure.

That left Marvin alone at the house as he rolled his eyes and looked at the roof.

"Well, this is boring…"

Marvin said, there was a knock at the door, Marvin ran and slid down the stair railing before landing in a crouch at the door.

(Outside two minutes before.)

Lena frowned at what she was doing, De Spell had been quiet lately, she never was like this.

Lena felt… Weird and conflicted around Marvin… She had figured he would be a dork and he wasn't, she figured he'd be protective of Webby… But he invited her as a friend with open arms.

"Ok…. Wasn't expecting this…"

Lena said as she walked up the front door.

"Hello?"

Marvin asked as he opened the front door right after Lena rang the doorbell.

"Lena!"

Marvin said as Lena rolled her eyes and smirked.

Ok, he was a bit of a dork still, Marvin frowned for a second as he looked around.

"Your parents didn't drop you off, did they? the mansion isn't within walking distance…"

Marvin said and Lena frowned at this, Marvin tilted his head at her.

"Did I say something wrong? Are you and your parents fighting?"

'Family… Such a fragile thing, right, Lena?'

De Spell whispered in her mind, she shook it off, Lena shook her head.

"No, they just couldn't make it…. So… You live here, huh?"

Lena asked as Marvin smiled once more and opened the door.

"Yeah, c'mon, if you're coming here, I'm going to make sure one of my best friends had a time worth the walk."

Marvin said as Lena flinched as if she was struck by an invisible punch.

Friends…. No, she didn't want anything but her freedom… The ability to exist on her own…

Right? She wasn't entirely beginning to like her plan…. She could feel De Spell mocking her as Marvin led her up the stairs.

"My parents aren't home… And my brothers: Mikey and Milo aren't home… So that means I have the run of the place till then… Oh, and me and Webby, Scrooge and Huey, Dewey, and Louie finished digging through the treasure, we tried to call you but we never saw your phone number…"

Marvin said, another flinch and silence, Lena didn't have a cell phone, her amphitheater barely counted as a 'house…'

"Uh… I… Don't have a phone, parents couldn't afford it."

Lena lamely replied, Marvin nodded before digging something out of his pocket.

"Catch."

Marvin said as he tossed the object to Lena, she caught it and looked at it.

It was a cell phone, a brand new one, Lena looked at Marvin who looked at her concerned.

"You're just giving me a phone?"

Lena asked, Marvin shrugged and turned to start walking as Lena followed.

"I just got another phone since the last one kept glitching… I fixed it, the one I gave you… Besides, you're my friend… Friends and family are more important than a simple phone, Lena."

Marvin said, a third and final flinch, Lena hated this, they were her enemy, they were obstacles to her freedom.

And yet Marvin was treating her like a normal person… Like a friend.

If she did have to carry out her 'Aunt's' plan, she hoped Marvin and the others wouldn't be hurt.

But she knew she wouldn't be strong enough to do so.

"C'mon, let's take a look at the treasure room, we dug all the fancy stuff out of the chests."

Marvin said as he motioned for Lena to follow him, De Spell cackled as Lena's fists clenched.

(Treasure room, 5 minutes later.)

The 'Treasure Trove' as it was called by Marvin's part of the Clan, was no Money Bin, but it was still impressive enough.

Marvin and Lena stood in front of a few piles of gold, coins, crowns, necklaces, anything that might usually be the eye catcher for most treasure hunters.

Marvin and Lena, however, didn't care about that, a large broadsword, a crown and Marvin's amulet were in front of them.

"I still can't understand much… Sorry, what I meant is these pieces of treasure were… Stanger…."

Marvin said as he put a hand under his chin and scratched at it in confusion, he was confused, De Spell knew the artifacts… But the sword…. The sword she didn't know.

"What, so their magic?"

Lena asked, Marvin nodded and shrugged right after that, unsure what to tell the girl.

"Yeah, the Amulet hasn't stopped shaking since you lifted that train…. And I've felt weird since then… The sword, it's cool, but it's very weird… Super weird."

Marvin said as he walked over to the sword as he picked it up. He was about to say something when his eyes lit up.

Lena watched as the amulet slipped around his neck as Marvin's glowed red before they turned back to a cool blue.

"What the…."

Lena asked before De Spell screamed in rage, the Amulet had bonded with Marvin.

HOW!? HOW COULD FATE SLAP HER IN THE FACE LIKE THAT?!

"Marvin!"

Lena asked as Marvin climbed to his feet and dusted off his jacket.

"Yeah… OW! Ok, the magic sword never did that before… And now it doesn't feel like its going to do anything…. Hmm…"

Marvin said as he started walking around with the sword before setting it back where it went.

"Lena?"

Marvin asked as he looked down at his amulet which was now glowing, Lena looked down at hers and saw it was glowing.

She didn't even listen to what her aunt was saying, Marvin's hands glowed red as he looked at her amulet.

"Ok…. Weirdest pirate treasure I've ever found…. Hmm… This thing ever glows like this before?"

Marvin asked as Lena shook her head, Marvin shrugged and walked off, the magic amulet and all that was more interesting then a bit of pirate treasure they had found.

"Ok… Now I want to know where this fleet came from…. A fleet carrying something like this had to do something in history…."

Marvin said, his amulet stopped glowing and cooled to a shade of red but it was clear it was bonded to Marvin as the chain locked around his neck, not even the best magic in the world would be able to take care of that.

"This is the strangest day ever… First the Leviathan Sword, now this…"

Marvin muttered as they made their way to another room before he turned to Lena.

"So…. Not to be a digger… But what you've been up to since the Terra-Firmians, Lena? Webby, Huey, Dewey, Louie and Scrooge went on an adventure yesterday so they won't be back till tomorrow, plus… I didn't really have anyone to talk or hang out with… So, I started working on stuff… What have you been doing since all that tunnel adventure stuff happened?"

Marvin asked, project: Mecha was still not done and wouldn't be for a few days…. That and he didn't have many friends outside of Huey, Dewey, Louie, Webby and Lena.

He questioned d if that was cause of a lack of social skills or because he was in a family that made tons of money and he was constantly around the world.

Lena rubbed her arms, she had spent the last few weeks or so since the tunnel adventure trying to get closer to the McDuck family…. Which she had, but with more and more urging from her 'Aunt' to just take the dime.

It was splitting her in 2, Marvin frowned and looked at her in concern once more.

He snapped his fingers near her, breaking her from her trance.

"You sure you're ok? You keep looking like you've seen a ghost…. Speaking of that, do you feel a chill or something?"

Marvin asked, he had thrown himself into researching and designing the new invention and trying to find out more about the sword and its origin and the amulet.

Despite this, he couldn't pry himself off Lena and De Spell….

Magica De Spell, the worst enemy his family had ever faced, he thought he and his family had defeated her in Transavia 3 years ago… 4, he was older now, he forgot that.

He guessed she had escaped, but what was she doing around Lena? He honestly doubted she and that…. Hag, could be related, he saw no way that could be possible…. He turned as Lena started to speak up.

"Looking for something to do… It was…. Boring after the tunnel adventure."

Lena stated, Marvin leaned against the staircase and nodded, it had been boring since that adventure, he couldn't argue…. The longer he waited for another adventure, the more bored it seemed he got.

"True…. So…. What did you want to do now? I don't have much to show you in the mansion… Oh, I know, what about the… Trampoline room? Hang on, I'll be right back, I want to check something really quick."

Marvin said before he vanished up the staircase as De Spell chuckled.

"It seems he has a crush on you, Lena… How… Sweet…. And disgusting…. Weakness has formed…"

Magica said, Lena was dumbstruck, and annoyed at the same time.

"How can you tell that? And no, the dork doesn't have a crush, he's only known me a few weeks."

Lena tried to bite back, but the snark from her voice was gone at the moment.

"He is shy around you, he wants to help you, and yes, he does, he wouldn't be so nice if he didn't have a crush on you…. He wouldn't be this nervous if he didn't like you…. He doesn't know what you're after, dear Lena…. Just like the girl…"

Magica purred like an evil lion, Lena was about to say something when she heard footsteps and Magica vanished.

"The trampoline room is open…. We don't use it a lot, usually isn't enough people to use... Eh, that's a lie, I just didn't think to use it today. C'mon, unless your chicken."

Marvin said as he turned and ran up the stairs before vanishing as Lena smirked and ran up the stairs.

(Trampoline room.)

The trampoline room wasn't as what it sounded like, there was indeed trampolines, but it wasn't as if the entire room was made up of them.

"Tag, you're going down, La Strange!"

Marvin yelled as he bounced and landed on another trampoline before jumping from it and avoiding Lena as she leapt at him.

"You're such a dork."

Lena chuckled out as Marvin was about to respond when Lena hit the trampoline he was on, he tumbled at her feet and grunted in annoyance at her.

"I hate you so much for that…. Why?"

Marvin asked in annoyance, she had cheated to win, he wanted to be annoyed but he couldn't.

In a minute, Marvin was laughing at her, he smiled and laughed in amusement.

"Blasted cheater, that wasn't fair…. Slamming into the same trampoline I was using is cheating…"

Lena heard from Marvin before she started laughing despite herself, Marvin climbed to his feet.

"Best 2 out of 3."

Marvin said, Lena smirked as the two teens went back to jumping on the trampolines.
