The others decided to get him pizza, but Duck told him that they would eat after they did their job on one condition.
"This is so awesome." Patch smiled.
"Ever be in a crime scene before?" Felicity asked as she carried Simon in her arms.
Simon simply shrugged.
"Nothing like this though..." Patch told Felicity. "I hope no one is badly hurt."
"Same here." Eloise said.
The pizza guy came by and handed several stacks of pizza boxes over to the overly hungry Tasmanian devil as they were standing by the robbed Weapons Depot store.
"Wow." Eloise said.
Slam was, of course, eager to eat up the pizzas, but Duck told him to wait.
"Duck, are you actually taking this seriously?" Patch asked.
"Why not?" Duck smirked proudly. "Somebody's got to in this crazy world we live in!"
"Are you sucking up to Mr. Planet?" Eloise asked suspiciously.
"What makes you say that?" Duck replied. "Just because he's a big and tough guy who's never met me before?"
"No one likes a suck-up." Patch told him.
"Who says I'm sucking up?" Duck folded his arms in defense.
Captain Planet rolled his eyes, he may had just met Duck, but he was sure this was typical of him. "Is he always like this?" he asked the kids.
"Only when he's trying to suck up to Zadavia." Akito said.
"So I see..." Captain Planet noted.
The police were now putting around yellow tape so the citizens would know to stay away from this area until further notice.
'I hope the police will allow Uncle Planet to come with us to the scene.' Estelle thought to herself.
"'Scuse us, Docs, official Loonatics business." Ace told the officers.
The officers lets the Loonatics, Fudo twins, Eloise, Patch, Felicity, and Simon in, but when they saw Captain Planet, they thought he was a civilian.
"He's with us." Akito and Estelle told the cops.
The officers allowed Captain Planet to go in with the heroes.
"Thanks, kids." Captain Planet smiled.
"No prob!" Akito saluted.
Captain Planet simply smiled and ruffled his nephew's hair.
Akito laughed. "Hey, quit it!"
Estelle decided to go on ahead and let Akito and Captain Planet bond. Felicity, Simon, and Eloise were being told of Captain Planet from what Estelle knew based on what she heard from her mother.
"So what now?" Eloise asked.
"Just a second, Ellie." Ace told the blonde girl as he walked with Akito to speak with a few cops.
Eloise nodded, then came to the others.
"Wow, these two must be a little more dangerous than their ancestors." Patch said.
"Do you think so?" Felicity asked the Dalmatian as she put Simon down on the ground so he could crawl around.
"Yeah, but if they are anything like them, then those two should be slightly pretty easy to defeat." Patch said before overhearing the conversation Akito, Ace, and Captain Planet were having with the officers.
There was suddenly a truck. It was coming right over and not even letting the police tape or any other sense of security stop it. Everyone did their best to get out of the way until the truck crashed against the police security and even busted the pizza which made the slices fly in the air, much to Slam's disappointment. Those two crooks were inside of it and getting away eagerly as an officer was chasing after them by hover scooter.
"Akito, those two are getting away!" Estelle informed her brother, referring to the two criminals.
"Not if I can help it!" Akito stretched his legs and zipped after the bad guy with the police scooter.
"This is the police!" the officer told the bad guys, showing his badge. "Pull over at once!"
Bugsy and Stony ignored him and continued to accelerate in speed of the flying truck.
"I don't think so, guys, you try to out-drive a Loonatic!" Akito yelled as he was chasing the truck.
"There's no way that he'll be able to stop us, right, Bugsy?" Stony asked.
Akito zipped right past them and stopped in front of them.
"He stopped us, Bugsy!" Stony told his partner.
"Hello, boys, going my way?" Aktio smirked and folded his arms at the bad guys.
"Out of the way, boy, before we run youse over!" Stony threatened.
The police officer began to gain up enough speed to catch up to the two crooks.
"I don't think so..." Akito messed with their heads.
"You are in violation of Police Code 345!" the officer announced through a megaphone. "You cannot escape, repeat, you cannot escape!"
"Oh, yeah?" Stony smirked before looking at Akito. "Think fast, hero!" He used one of their weapons and fired it at the police officer.
"Hey!" Akito glared at the bad guy.
The police offer then fell off his scooter. Akito then rushed to save the authority figure before he would have a nasty fall. This gave the two crooks plenty enough time to drive off to get as away as fast as they could.
"You okay, sir?" Akito gently landed on the road.
The officer stood up and dusted himself clean, the blast had chipped his helmet slightly. "Thanks for the assis-assis-assis-Thanks for the help."
"Wait, that voice and that stutter..." Akito said. "By any chance, would you be the descendant of Porky Pig?"
"Uh, you know my gr-gr-great-ancestor?" the officer replied.
"Excuse me, but I have to do this..." Akito took the helmet off to reveal that the officer was in fact a pig. "Yep, you're descended from Porky Pig... Now, what's your name?"
Duck walked over and tilted his head with a small smile. "Pinkster, is that you?" he then asked.
"Duck, you know him?" Akito asked.
"Yeah!" Duck smiled. "Let's get back to the Tower, we'll deal with those two mooks later."
The pig smiled brightly once he saw Duck. Akito glared at where the two crooks once were, but decided that Duck was right, they would catch the two criminals later on.
It was settled and the Loonatics reported back to the Tower and brought the pig with them.
"Remind me again, why are we bringing the pig along?" Patch asked.
"Duck's requests, this better be good." Ace replied once they got to the Tower annd were now going up the elevator.
"You and me both, even if this is a friend of Duck's." Akito said.
"We'll get our answer soon." Captain Planet said.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah..." Akito and Estelle folded their arms.
They came up to the top floor and walked out.
"All right, Duck, what's up with this guy?" Estelle asked.
"Okay, guys," Duck put a proud arm around the pig. "This is my oldest bud: Pinkster."
"It's nice to mee-mee-mee-see you all." the pig smiled and waved to the Loonatics.
"Nice to meet you too." Eloise smiled.
Slam and Rev looked curious of the pig, but muttered out their own greetings to be polite.
"How do you guys know each other?" Akito asked Pinkster and Duck.
"Yeah, did you guys meet at the pool one time?" Estelle asked.
"Duck's told us all about you!" Rev went on a rant.
Tech decided that was enough, he took out a pocket sized device and pulled the tiny crank which tied the roadrunner's beak shut. "Maybe if we give Pinkster a chance, he could fill us in." he suggested.
"Oh, Old Cornfed and I grew up in the same orphanage." Duck revealed.
"Wait... Orphanage?!" The kids and Patch asked, surprised.
"We were the last to be ch-ch-ch-ch-Picked." Pinkster said then.
"Duck, we didn't know you came from an orphanage." Patch said to the duck.
"Oh, I never mentioned that?" Duck asked, then shrugged. "Eh... Well, now ya know."
"So I'm guessing one of you must have been adopted before the other one, right?" Akito asked.
"Yeah... Those were the good old days..." Duck reminisced. "Well, there were probably good and sometmes just old..."
"It was down to one last couple." Pinkster added. "Since it was such a big decision, I suggested we f-f-flip a coin."
"What kind of coin did you use to flip?" Eloise asked.
"Eh, just like any other coin..." Pinkster shrugged, fnding that to be an odd question.
"Heads, they would get me, Tails, they would get Pinkster." Duck added.
"So did it land on heads or tails?" Patch asked.
"It came up Heads and D-D-Duck was given his family." Pinkster said, slightly solemn in his voice and even bowed his head down sadly.
"So, how long was it before you were chosen?" Ace then asked.
"That would be... Never." Pinkster replied, still sounding sad.
Duck gasped in shock. "No one ever adopted you?"
"But why's that you seem like such a nice guy." Patch said.
"I-It's okay..." Pinkster sadly smiled. "The important thing is how Duck turned out."
Duck smiled smugly to that.
"Y-You're a super crime-fighter!" Pinkster praised.
"Yeah, he's come a long way from pool boy." Estelle smiled.
"Aw, shucks," Duck smiled bashfully. "Well... It's not easy keeping a great bird down."
"A-A-And you guys are sure lucky for w-w-what you do," Pinkster then looked to the other Loonatics. "I wasn't so lucky f-findng my calling."
"What do you mean?" Eloise asked.
"I-I tried medical experiments, b-b-but things didn't quite work out." Pinkster explained.
"How bad could it have been?" Patch asked.
"Well, there is one thing I can say that I learned," Pinkster smiled then. "N-Never give up your dream... So, I became a p-p-p-p-p-cop."
"Hey, that's great!" Duck praised. "I mean, look at ya! You even look like one."
"Thanks," Pinkster smiled before taking out a can. "Whenever I'm not sure of myself, I-I-I have a little trick to give me courage."
"And that trick is?" Patch asked.
"You found courage in a can?" Lexi added with a shrug, not understanding either.
"A-A-All I gotta do is look in my can and say 'I c-c-can do it'." Pinkster said, looking determined.
"Um, that's good to know." Patch said.
"So I was wondering," Pinkster then looked to Ace. "if I can work with you guys to get Stony and Bugsy? After all... It was my fault they got away..."
Duck seemed to sweat nervously about that proposition.
"I mean, you are the one in charge?" Pinkster then looked to Duck, thinking he was the leader of the Loonatics.
"Excuse me, what?!" Akito glared.
"In charge... Oh, uh, yeah..." Duck started to sweat again. "But, uh, I'll have to think about it... And I do my best thinking over there!" he then grabbed Ace and Akito with him to teleport with the bunny and human boy.
"I have a sneaky suspicion that Duck is going to be dishonest with Pinkster the whole time he's here." Captain Planet whispered to his niece.
"Ya think?" Estelle smirked like she had the same feeling and knew, mostly because she had known Duck a lot longer than her uncle did.
And where they were both right, that was exactly what Duck was going to do.
"Sooo, guys..." Duck smiled to the male bunny and human boy.
"You're making up stories to make yourself sound cool again to someone who doesn't know you, aren't you?" Akito glanced at the duck with high and mighty assumption.
"Uh, what do you say, guys?" Duck kissed up to them. "Old pals? Old buds? Have I ever told you that I love that bandanna, Akito? Where'd you get it?"
"Duck, lying to your friends is bad." Akito glared.
"I'm not sure if that's such a good idea..." Ace added as he took a look at the pig from afar where they just were.
"But I could train him myself," Duck insisted. "And when I'm done, it'll be like having two Ducks around! No, no, maybe three..." he then said, holding up all of his fingers.
"I don't know." Akito said.
Ace shuddered. "Now yer scarin' me."
"Look, Pinkster knows Stony and Bugsy, he could be helpful!" Duck still begged.
"I hate to say this, but Duck does make a good point, Pinkster might have some information on Stony and Bugsy." Akito said.
"Well..." Ace was still unsure, but he couldn't argue with that.
"Thanks!" Duck shook both their hands before running off to tell his friend the good news. "You won't regret it!"
"I think I already do..." Ace mumbled.
"Same here..." Akito agreed, also mumbling.
