Chapter 2
Louie walked outside in Scrooge's garden. Huey and Dewey didn't know what they were doing there. All of a sudden they saw Lena walking out of a bush.
"Okay, so I knew you guys would say yes." Louie started. "So I called Lena over before our little agreement." Huey and Dewey both expected their brother to be one step ahead of them when it comes to money. "Alright, how bout we start with Huey. Talk to Lena like she's Desire." Huey felt awkward at first because it was Lena.
"So Lena, I mean Desire, do you like badges?" Huey asked confidently. Louie stopped him.
"Okay, I like the confidence, but badges, really?!" Louie said as he face palmed himself. "Try to talk about something else." Huey was confused.
"What about dungeons and dragons?" Huey asked as Louie face palmed himself again. Lena started laughing as Louie face palmed himself again.
"Alright Dewey it's your turn." Louie said as Huey started going back to where he was originally standing. He was disappointed that his topic wasn't interesting enough. Dewey started walking up to Lena and pretending that she was Webby. He started feeling intimidated, he didn't know why. Dewey has never acted like this around Webby (even though it wasn't Webby). He felt his heart beating out of his chest. He stared at Lena for a long time until Louie stopped him.
"I honestly thought you would do better than Huey, but I guess I was wrong." Louie said disappointed in his brothers. "Maybe I should have started with a mop or something." Louie said to himself as he ended the lessons. "The real lessons will start tomorrow, I'm gonna get that money!" Louie marched off to his room as everyone else stood there.
"So, anyone want pizza?" Lena asked as Huey and Dewey decided to follow her to get pizza. They went to pizza place down the street from the mansion. Huey and Dewey were so excited to get pizza while Lena didn't really care that much for it. Dewey was confused by this. The pizza came out and they all put a slice on their plates.
"Hey Huey, can you go get me some pepper?" Dewey asked. "But get the special pepper at the front desk." Huey agreed to get it as Lena was confused.
"What special pepper?" Lena asked.
"The one I made up so we can talk privately." Dewey answered as Lena congratulated him on his deceptiveness.
"Well done blue." Lena said as Dewey questioned her.
"Why did we come here if you didn't want pizza?" Dewey asked as Lena rolled her eyes.
"I just wanted to tell you that if you wanna win Webby's heart, you gotta look more mature." Lena said as Dewey disagreed with her. "You can't just look the part either, you have to act the part too."
"Why can't I just be myself?" Dewey asked as Lena rolled her eyes again.
"Do you think this is some kind of cliche movie where the geeky protagonist gets the girl?!" Lena said angrily. "Weather you like it or not, what I'm telling you is the truth. If you can't accept it, then go find someone else to crush on." Dewey started to agree with her. He realized that she was right considering she was interested in that preppy guy. Huey came back from the front desk.
"They said there wasn't any special pepper." Huey said confused.
"Oh, I must've mistaken this place for the other pizza place." Dewey lied trying to justify his actions. Huey considered that a valid excuse as they all sat down and ate their pizza. Afterwards, the boys and Lena went their separate ways and Huey and Dewey decided to sit in the garden for a little bit. Dewey was still thinking about the events that happened that day. There was still one thing that he was confused about.
"Hey Huey, how did you know that preppy guy?" Dewey asked as Huey tried to dodge the question.
"So the pizza was pretty good right?!" Huey said as Dewey realized what he was doing.
"Answer the question Hue." Dewey demanded. Huey sighed at this. "Are you getting bullied again? Huey you are like a bully magnet. When are you ever gonna stand up for yourself?" Huey stopped Dewey.
"No, it's not that." Huey said trying to explain. "It's not that at all. Well, kinda sorta." Dewey face palmed himself as Huey started giving the full story. "Let me started at the beginning."
(Flashback)
It was the night of Desire's party. Huey, Dewey, and Louie were having a good time. While Dewey was showing off on the dance floor, Huey and Louie were drinking soda outside on the balcony. They noticed some commotion going on in the backyard, next to the pool. It was some random girl and a preppy kid (Nathan). They were having an intense argument with nobody around.
"Get away from me!" The girl yelled as the preppy kid kept walking towards her.
"Come on, I barely touched you." The preppy kid said. The girl looked like she had a mark on her face.
"I'm calling the cops!" The girl yelled angrily. The preppy kid just laughed.
"And what are they gonna do, arrest me?!" The preppy kid said laughing evilly. He grabbed the girl by the shirt as Huey and Louie tried to make their way down the balcony. "Do you know who I am? My father is the 10th richest duck in Duckberg. And you're family is poorer than most. Do you really think they'll believe a girl like you? They'll think you're doing it for money." The girl was started to get scared.
"HELP!" The girl screamed as the preppy kid slapped her across the face. He then grabbed her by the neck.
"You better shut up if you know what's good for you!" The preppy kid said angrily. Huey and Louie finally arrived.
"Let her go!" Louie demanded as the preppy kid looked back.
"How bout you mind your own business!" The preppy kid said as Huey spoke up.
"How bout you show a little respect and leave her alone!" Huey demanded as the preppy kid got mad.
"And what are you gonna do if I don't?!" The peppy kid asked as he started walking towards Huey. Huey was intimidated by this and threw a full soda can at his eye. This formed a black eye on the preppy kid's face. Before the kid could do anything, Louie pushed him into the pool and they started running with the girl. The preppy kid tried to go after them, but by the time he got out of the pool they were already gone.
They ran into the front yard of the house. Huey and Louie were happy the confrontation didn't go as bad as they thought, but it was still pretty bad.
"Nice going Huey, you just had to throw a soda at him!" Louie said sarcastically and angrily.
"I didn't know what to do, he provoked me!" Huey said trying to explain himself. The girl thanked them for their help.
"So are you gonna call the cops on that guy?" Louie asked as he pointed towards the house. "Because in my opinion, he needs a few years behind bars." The girl just sighed.
"I can't just do that." The girl said shamefully. "You heard what he said, his father's the 10th richest duck in Duckberg. Even if I called the cops, he'll still get out of punishment with his 'daddy's money'. Thanks for your help, but it's not that easy to bring him down." With that said, the girl left and Huey and Louie decided to not go back in the house, assuming that the preppy guy was looking for them.
(End of Flashback)
"I knew he was a jerk!" Dewey said excitedly as he started to run out of the garden. "I gotta go tell Webby. Then she'll have to not like him." Huey stopped Dewey from running to Webby.
"Dewey, do you really think she's gonna believe you after you guys had that argument today?" Huey said reasoning with his brother. Dewey thought about it for a second and realized his brother was right. If he were to tell Webby, she would think that Dewey is just lying so he would win the argument.
"So what are we gonna do then, Webby is falling in love with some preppy jerk?" Dewey asked concerned for Webby. "What if she never realizes what a jerk he really is? What they fall in love? What she stops wanting hangout with me?" Huey started smiling.
"Dewey, you just admitted to liking Webby." Huey said as he started to grin.
"Huey, don't twist my words around." Dewey said as Huey started going over the plan.
"Okay, so you need to change your style to a preppy look." Huey said as Dewey disapproved. "Hear me out for a second. You have to start acting formal in order to take her to the Duckutante ball. It's a high class ball where the children of the richest ducks in Duckberg get together and get inducted into a formal society. If you take her to this ball, she'll think of you as more mature and more gentlemen like." Dewey started thinking about his options. It seemed like a very good plan.
"Okay, I've made my decision." Dewey said enthusiastically. "I'm gonna start being preppy." Dewey said pointing to the sky like an adventurer.
"That's not very preppy." Huey stated ruining the mood that Dewey was in.
"I'm gonna be preppy starting tomorrow." Dewey said as he and Huey started heading to their room.
