Part 4
Hank walks to the other side of the truck opening the passenger side door picking Webby up and sets her on the ground .He smiles ruffling her bow and hands her the bag she brought with her he gives her a tight hug it had been a long ride and they both were tried although Webby had slept some in the truck while Hank drove.
"You take care of yourself now .I hope you find what your looking for"Hank winks at her walking back opening the driver side door and climes inside and starts up the truck.
Webby gets a huge smile and waves "bye thanks for the ride"before turning her feet and looking down the dark alley .She gulped as she has never liked walking in the dark .She took a deep breath before walking into it and was little jumpy as she walked slowly looking at the numbers on the door until she saw it 54.
She looked around in all directions before knocking on the door.
She heard a lot of noise inside and some rattling around before they opened the door.
She stood almost in shock as the door handle turned .She saw Mike open the door .He looked just like in her dream .She cleared her throat before speaking "Mr .Duckpin I am Webby I don't know if you remember but you found me a couple of years ago in my mothers apartment"
The mans eyes bug out and he stands staring at her for minute before he speaks"I remember it sweetie who could forget the worse screen I ever saw .I mean people have left pets in their apartments but never babies."
Webby looks side ways then back at the man"Yeah well I was just wondering did you ever see my mom again ?I mean find a forwarding address ?I need to find her she is the only one who can answer my questions"
The man motions for her to come inside "This alley isn't the place come inside and we can talk"
Webby is really nervous but walks inside behind the man .She looks around his house it is old and dirty as they walk up some steps.
He motions for her to sit down and she slides up into the chair just looking around.
"Did you want something to drink?"He says sitting down on near by chair .He looks at her and seemed more nervous then she was.
"No thank you Hank the truck driver he took me to lunch before I came"She answered politely .Webby folds her hands in her lap.
"I am really sorry sweetie your mother never did come back to the apartment and I never found another address for Her."He cleared his throat
"It was a day I will never forget that curdled up bottle of milk laying next to you and no blanket you were half frozen when I picked you up I guess your mother didn't pay the electric bill in a while and it was the dead of winter .You were screaming like mad .Just the thought of someone doing that broke me up inside . The housing authority shut the place down not long after that the press coming in got the city after me and well I wasn't keeping things up to code."
Webby gulped "Is there a way to see inside the apartment ?Maybe she left something behind that would help me find her"Webby holds her bag wiggling it around in her hand as she talks.
"O honey,the housing authority shut the place down its all boarded up"Mike says shaking his head.
"But if anyone had the key it would you"Webby says eyeing him
Huey and Dewey sat on the bus looking out the window .They had brought a ticket through the machine at the station and had sat near the back of the bus
Huey had his iPod and Dewey was reading a book as they rode. Huey pulled down the earphones out of his ears.
"Leave it to Webby to get us into this stupid mess"Huey says rapping a blanket around himself
"I just hope we find her .Weird her wanting to see her mother all of sudden I wonder what's up with that?Dewey says before going back to his reading
"I just hope Louie can hold off Uncle Scrooge and Miss Beckley or we aren't going to be going anywhere for life"Huey says placing his earphone back in his ears
Back at the Mcduck house Louie walks into the house Scrooge is standing near the door as he walks in and looks over as he comes in .
"Hey Louie how was school?"Louie peeked over and froze for second wondering if he knew something was up as Scrooge spoke to him .He kept hoping by the time he got back his brothers would have found Webby and been back
"o same as always you know pretty boring "He says trying to dash up the stairs before he said something else
"Where are Huey and Dewey?"he asks glancing over at the boy who became very nervous when he spoke to him.
"They took Webby and went to the park "Louie says dashing up the stairs
Scrooge smiled " nice to see the kids playing with each "he says before turning and walking back into his office."Wait Huey and Dewey took Webby to the park without being asked why do I feel there is something wrong with that?"
