Summary/disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Duck and Mallard. Enjoy the 1300-word chapter. I don't own Ducktails, Disney and Jymn Magon do.

(Duckberg, Mallard Manor, 1 day before 'The other Bin of Scrooge McDuck!')

Marvin pulled on his…. Semi favorite red jacket and looked at the Blade of Leviathan, the sword had wound up at his bedside when he had left it in the Treasure Trove.

"Just what are you….?"

Marvin asked as he looked at the sword in amazement before he heard a knock at the door, he looked at the clock.

"10…. Right, Webby was coming over with Huey, Dewey and Louie…"

Marvin stated as he rubbed the tiredness out of his eyes, they and Lena were coming over to talk about their trip tomorrow to the other bin Scrooge used for storing other relics.

"I'm coming, I'm…. Uhh… Last time I try and stay up for research…"

Marvin stated in annoyance, he had stayed up all night to research more about the amulet he and Lena wore, the Sword of Leviathan and Magica De Spell.

It had left him with only 5 or so hours of sleep…. Not good for a treasure hunter or for a teen.

"Come…. In…"

Marvin said with a yawn, he made sure the yawn would be the last one he made for the morning as Webby, Huey, Dewy and Louie walked in.

"Marvin? Why do you look so tired?"

Webby asked as Marvin rubbed the sleep out of his eyes and yawned again.

He was glad Lena wasn't here, he'd never hear the end of it this time….

"Sorry, I was doing research on things and only have 5 hours of sleep… I will be fine for the tomorrow trip…."

Marvin said as he looked at the rest of the group, he thought Lena was supposed to be with the group, as much as he didn't want to endure her teasing.

"Where's Lena, I thought all of you were coming so we could hang out before…."

Marvin started to say before turning his head to the side, he forgot that Huey, Dewey and Louie weren't going to the other Bin due to them going fishing with Donald.

He prayed for them, he tried to hide his blush as Louie chuckled.

"Pay up, Dewey, Marvin totally has a crush on Lena, I told you."

Marvin heard from Louie as he blushed and turned to the triplets.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, who said I have a crush on Lena? I just like her here, there's only the six of us in our group…."

Marvin stated as Louie just shrugged as Dewey handed him five dollars, he frowned in annoyance but shrugged.

"Webby, you guys can go to the Treasure Trove… I'm going to try and knock the last bits of sand out of my eyes and then join you guys…. If you don't remember where that is, my butler Ford will show you guys where that is…"

Marvin Said as the door opened once more, Marvin turned to be greeted with Lena as he yawned once again.

"Ok, we can go to the Treasure Trove now…."

Marvin stated as the others laughed, Marvin rolled his eyes and whistled for Ford.

It was going to be a LONG day, it seemed.

(Treasure Trove.)

Marvin watched Louie mess with the treasures as his brothers tried to keep him from taking anything.

Marvin both chuckled and facepalmed, maybe he shouldn't have said they could mess around in the gold and stuff below.

"This would be funnier if I had a camera and a way to record it… Eh, still fun to watch…"

Marvin said as he leaned on the railing in amusement, he had almost forgotten to deal with the finishing touches on the Mecha Mallard as he heard his brother call it…. It was one thing he hadn't decided on… But it was as cool as anything else he had heard.

"I almost forgotten how much treasure was in the Mallard Treasure Trove!"

Webby yelled as Marvin rolled his eyes in amusement, the last time he remembered Webby being here was when they were younger.

"Webby, that was 6 years ago, we've done a lot more treasure since then…"

Marvin as he turned to Lena and began to talk.

"I'm guessing Webby never told you much about my family?"

Marvin asked, Lena flinched as she could hear her aunt speaking.

"Not a lot, no."

Lena said as Marvin chuckled and turned to Webby who shrugged, Marvin rolled his eyes and began to explain.

"All of my family… Or as Webby and Scrooge like to call it 'The Mallard Clan…' All of my family is rich… Not as rich as Scrooge… Or Glomgold, but rich… All of my family is skilled in something and makes money in some ways…."

Marvin stated before taking another breath to keep explaining.

"Some are soldiers, some are bankers, tour guides… We all are explorers, though… And we all seem to have Magic… At least on my Dad's side of the clan… All of the clan have their own rules on how they do their business…. My family has their own set of rules but we make our fortune through adventuring and only that…. Since the rest of my family is gone, they are all adventuring… All but me…."

Marvin said, he stated the last part with a bit of a frown as Lena looked at him in shock as Webby hugged Marvin as he wheezed in her grip.

"Marvin's mother is the great Marie Mallard, one of the smartest in the clan and possibly the world… And one of the best hand to hand fighters since my aunt…"

Webby stated as Marvin chuckled in amusement as he turned to look at his childhood friend.

"Maybe it's because she's a former soldier, Webby…. My father is Mace Mallard, one of the more well-trained explorers in the family… Sadly, he is not the best at making good food at all… I don't even want to explain how many times we've had to order out due to my dad trying to cook…"

Marvin stated with a frown in annoyance as Webby shuddered as she remembered a memory from Mace.

"Didn't he nearly set the house on fire when me and my aunt came over with Scrooge?"

Webby asked as Marvin nodded and sighed as he turned and looked at Dewey writing something down as he rolled his eyes.

"He did set the house on fire, Webby… Cooking hamburgers… I still remember the fire department coming over and mom yelling at him…. I love my old man, but he sucks at cooking… As I was going to say, all this is from treasure hunting… There always seems to be a priceless relic or something…. And museums and such pay for us to get them… Me? When I get to go on my old adventures, I'm not really going to care about getting money… I'd much rather do it for the adventure…. That's what most people… Do adventuring for…. Hmm... Blasted solar eclipse is going to be weird…."

Marvin said as he looked at the solar eclipse, Lena heard De Spell laugh at this and frowned.

"Yeah… the eclipse… Pretty boring, huh?"

Marvin heard from Lena and he nodded, Solar Eclipses were cool but they didn't really have a lot going for them since you couldn't look at them.

Marvin looked at Lena and saw her frowning as she looked around.

Marvin didn't know but a storm was coming…

Author Note

Phew, another chapter done! Yes, this chapter was shorter, non-episode chapters aren't my thing… As for Lena and Marvin? I like to think Lena cares for Marvin since he's being nice and trying to get to know her better, I won't rush the romance… Next chapter will be right at the end of the Other Bin of Scrooge McDuck! And will be On Saturday or so. Until then, Lighting Wolf out!
