Summary/disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Duck and Mallard. Enjoy the 800-word chapter. I don't own Ducktails, Disney and Jymn Magon do.
(Duckberg.)
It had been 4 months since the battle with Magica and Marvin had vanished…. And it beginning to worry Webby.
Marvin hadn't just left crying from the loss of Lena, it felt like he had had left Duckberg entirely.
"Webby, note from Mallard Manor, I think Marvin has finally reached out again!"
Webby heard from her aunt as she rushed and grabbed the package from her aunt's hands.
"Poor girl… I know Marvin was her best friend before Lena but…."
Ms. Beakley muttered as Webby tore up the package, the triplets were with her.
"Hey Webbs..."
The note said as Webby raised an eyebrow at this.
"'Webbs?' Marvin's never called you 'Webbs' before…"
Huey said as Louie shrugged at this and spoke up.
"It's been two weeks, Huey, maybe he's been taking it easy."
Louie said as Webby continued to read from the note, frowning as she did so.
"If your reading this, then it's been 4 months since Magica and you're wondering where in the world I've went… Well… I have good news and bad news…"
Webby said as the triplets looked at each other as Webby continued reading.
"The good news is I ain't dead and all that… The bad news? I'm leaving Duckberg for now…. Or have left… I know It would kill you to tell you I'm leaving and you'd try to come with me if I told you this next part…. But I had to…"
Webby said as she gasped, Marvin had left Duckberg? She knew he was taking the loss of Lena harder then she was… But leaving? That….
"I have to handle something… And yes, it includes Lena… I'm going to get her back, that hag isn't taking her away… When 6 months pass, I'll tell you where I've been… But not before then… Until then, enjoy being with Scrooge and Huey Dewey and Louie…. Tell them I hope their having a great time… Until then, Marvin Mallard out…"
Webby read as she looked at the letter in disbelief before the triplets all looked at her and then to Scrooge who just walked in.
"Hello, Boys, is that package from Marvin? I guess he finally reached out."
Scrooge said before Webby tossed the note at him.
(Mount Vesuvius
Magica growled in anger, the Shadow Staff was broken and with it, her power…. And that blasted Mallard had probably taken the amulet.
She didn't have the power to strike back… But she knew an item that Marvin would go after… And she knew just the person to take it.
"Well… If dear sweet Lena was real… I guess I should introduce her with more family besides her dear sweet aunt…"
Magica spat out as she looked down at the Blue Amulet down in her palm.
She didn't have the ability to make another staff… But making another Shadow?
"It's time to introduce Lena's friends to her cousin…."
Magica said as she smiled like a wolf and began to use her magic as a figure began to take shape.
(Unknown Jungle.)
The figure launched another grappling hook and spun before landing in the doorway of the temple.
This would be the second piece out of 6 of the map… And he would get it.
"Big brother? I know the girl was pretty and you liked her and all that… But are we really doing this?"
The figure heard from his glasses where a screen/telephone was built into the screen.
"Yeah, Mikey, I told you that you and Milo didn't have to come…. But you wanted to come… Just stay in camp, I'll be right back…"
The figure said as he walked through the temple, this one didn't have the traps the others temples did…. So, he would grab the map piece and get the other map piece.
"2 months…. And all to save her…. She would kill me if she found out I was here and left… But I had to…"
The figure said as he looked down at the amulet on his wrist, it shone like the one around his neck.
"Mikey, I've got the map piece… I haven't found the other map piece… Must have been a dud… Time to find the other pieces for the map to the Eternal Elixir… And get her back before 2 months…"
Author Note
Phew, another chapter done! Yes, I know it's a short chapter but I meant this chapter just to set up the next arc…. If any one reads the comics, they know who Magica is bringing in… And for the figure in the jungle? You know who it is… Next chapter will skip ahead 2 months and will show Webby and the others meeting the new villain and the figure on the race for the Eternal Elixir. Until next Friday or Monday, until then, Lighting Wolf out!
