The Final Battle of F.O.W.L…
In an unmarked room sat a kid looking at the battle commencing from the several cameras. The figure was sitting in a swivel chair that was clearly too big for them. They sat there watching the red plane flying over the base's roof. They were bored tapping on his desk. Looking at May and "June" going about their patrols as usual. They never got to meet them and could have been good friends being the only other kid on this base. They would keep watching until he saw them take down the plane as it came engulfed in a blue hue. "This is Oracle, the red plane has crashed into the base. Counting 7… kids north west hall any officers around keep your heads up," Oracle responded.
"Roger, stay off the comms kid we got this." random egghead reported in. He noticed June was snooping around in area's she shouldn't, but he wasn't allowed to communicate with them in fact he was never given there comms radio waves. He decided he would keep an eye on them as he watched as the children had split up, and gone separate ways.
For 30 minutes he watched as each of the McDuck kids defeated Phantom Blot by unleashing the headless man horse's true form. Managed to convince May and June, who was disguised as Webby. Some guy, a pilot named Launchpad fighting the smartest form of Steelbeak. However, Scrooge was apprehended above, and so was his family in iron chains. His mom stood with Bradford as they were talking with each other with the project "No way home" online. "We're losing. I'm going to keep the magic caster and the two sets of triplets busy, it seems like they're headed to the roof." He started watching Launchpad now in Gizmoduck's armor beating Steelbeak. "Oh for the love of ergh," He stated frustratingly he grabbed a small round device and hit a button and it turned into a hover pad in a circle he stood on grabbing a backpack before taking off to intercept the six kids.
"This is a message to the remaining egg heads," He started to his surprise no one was really left, "This is Oracle prisoners have been freed, I repeat prisoners have been freed. I'm going in pursuit of the kids, Oracle, out."
Climbing stairs…
The six kids were running to the top of a long set of stairs to the roof. "Stairs.. Why'd it…. Have to be uh stairs." Louie said in the back as they were almost to the top.
"It's alright Louie we're almost there- Look out!" Dewey said looking back at his brother, tackling to the ground as a weird fast moving figure almost hit him, the other kids also hit the deck as well.
"What the what?" Huey said looking up at the figure no more than ten feet from them standing on a hovering circle above them. Webby, May, and June looked up, and immediately took a fighting stance seeing the F.O.W.L hoodie he was wearing. He was wearing the hood, nothing you could see but the slightly orange pointed beak.
"Whose that?" Louie asked. As the boys took a less impressive fighting stance then the girls.
"I'm the Oracle of this place," the figure said, in a younger voice than they were expecting, "Unfortunately I can't let you pass. We have a job to do here, and your family is meddling with those plans."
"Are we fighting evil babies now?" Dewey said kind of bored.
"Wait, what if I'm not a baby I'm 9," said Oracle embarrassed.
"Kid we're 12 so if you'll excuse us we need to-" Dewey started. As the hoverpad launched a laser scorching the stairs. Causing everyone to jump back with a yelp. After everyone regained their composure.
"Listen kid, our family is in danger, so if you'll forgive us we're going to have to get through," Huey said, turning into the duke.
"You see if I do that," He spoke undoing his hoodie revealing pitch black feathers, that unmistakable light orange beak, a left eye of green and a right eye of purple, a heron kid standing clear as day in front of them, "I'd be putting my family at risk." They all stood there for a second to process what they were seeing. Until the six of them charged the kid. He dodged all of them with ease thanks to the hoverboard they tried to run past so he retaliated sending the board to cause them to trip and fall down the stairs a little. He was trying to stall them since he knew 6 vs 1 isn't a fair fight in his favor.
Between the Duke and the girls. With all star sneak attacks from Dewey and Louie they managed to push the kid on his hoverboard up the long spanning staircase. Webby, May, and June were hard to keep up with like they'd known each other for years, the duke fought so irregularly it was hard to combat back. Then it happened, Dewey got a rock and threw it at Oracle's hoverpad. It damaged his control module sending hurdling off the side of the Library of Alexandria just before he hit the ground then it exploded, sending him skidding through the sand at fast speeds collecting several severe injuries. The six looked over the edge for a second, said somethings to each other, and went to go save their family. That was the last sight the Oracle saw before it went dark.
Later that day…
Oracle awoke to Steelbeak, John D. Rockerduck, Pepper, and Blot sitting in a moving vehicle. They were all arguing. They were trying to figure out who was going to lead now that Bradford was out of the picture. They were also talking about places to hit now that they basically lost anything. His vision was blurry for a bit before it settled down. He looked at the adults arguing like children.
"Pepper? Where's my mom?" Oracle asked Pepper. All her eyes said enough to say something had gone awry in the plan, "Pepper…"
"Bradford killed her, Bradford is also gone never to be seen again," Pepper told Oracle the truth. 1st he lost his arm and his leg, then he lost his trust, he lost his home, and now he lost his mother. He looked at the sea of super villains.
He knew this car. It was Bradfords old limo. Oracle got up and immediately fell causing everyone to fall silent.
"Oracle stand down your to injured," Pepper spoke up trying to help him up. He looked at her with the hurt, and the anger in his eyes.
"I'm fine," he replied teary eyed and angrily, hitting a hatch in the floor revealing one of his mom's spare arms. Luckily it was adjustable he put it on making sure it worked as the rest of them argued about stupid plans that would never work. He had enough. Taking out a sound emitter from the arm making it loud enough that everyone fell in pain.
"Now," Oracle started looking at all the villain's attention, he said collecting himself, "Today we lost everything we spent almost a decade working for. We lost Bradford and we lost Black Heron. The whole world is hunting every single one of you. If you don't follow my plan I'll let the whole world know exactly where each and everyone of you are. No matter where you are I have tabs on each and every one of you. So if you don't want to rot in prison for the rest of your miserable existence," Oracle explained, showing each of their locations, "Here's the new plan, We get them to think we're out of the picture, meantime we gather new allies, and we stay in the shadows. No wild operations, plans, schemes, no underground experiments. Everything runs through me now."
"And what makes you think we'll listen to you," Steelbeak contested cockily.
"Because Steelbeak," Oracle started, using the robotic arm to pull him to the ground, "Because when I'm done with Duckburg, there won't be nothing but a city of ruins." He looked at him laughing to the concern of everyone. "Now let's get to work, gentlemen."
Two years later…
Glomgold, Don Karnage, Ma Beagle, and Magica De Spell were all sitting around a table having received a note emblazoned with a logo they had not seen in years now to visit here.
"There's no way this is Bradford, I turned him into a buzzard permanently," Magica said, breaking the silence.
"I thought Scrooge burned all their resources too," Ma beagle added with the group of villains nodding in agreement.
"I bet this is a prank by one of Scrooge's nephews," Glomgold stated angrily.
"Probably my arch nemesis Dewey." Don Karnage said angrily.
"Factually Incorrect," a voice shouted from the hallway with the sound of metal hitting the floor as they came out of the shadows. The kid started with Pepper and Phantom Blot behind the kid. "I came here to threaten all of you," Oracle said, hopping on to the table cracking the wood frame. Undoing his F.O.W.L hoodie revealing his identity, who were all shocked to see the descendant of Black Heron. "Tomorrow, I'm laying waste to the city of Duckburg and Scrooge's manor. Call it evening the score, which is where you all come into play. Get in my way. I'll expose every single one of your secrets, lies, betrayals, lairs, hidden deeds to the world," He said, throwing up holograms of every wrong deed they've ever done, and locations of hidden bases, the villains stared at him angrily. They charged to attack him starting with a spell from Magica which he stopped with the metal arm, retaliating with a launched fist knocking Magica down. He kicked Glomgold to the wall with his metal leg. Don Karnage attacked him with a sword which he dodged by jumping up, and landing on his sword breaking his sword in half by landing on it. Don Karnage staggered back, getting hit by a shot by a shock ray causing him to fall over. He glared at Mark and Ma who got the message they weren't winning this fight.
"Why go through all this trouble to threaten us?" Ma Beagle Asked,
"Cause your message. Pepper, Phantom Blot get them ready for operation message," He ordered. Pepper and Oracle were the only one's in their car as he rode off as Phantom Blot was delivering the villains to the McDuck manor.
"Rockerduck and Steeljaw?" Pepper asked.
"They remain loyal, they haven't caused many problems. I doubt they'll try anything. I also have been monitoring them 24/7 they're fine." Oracle acknowledged.
"Oracle this is a doomed mission, I also think this is as well," Pepper said as Oracle looked at her, "Kid you can act tough, but you don't have to be like us. Your mother was a villain legend you could leave. Start over."
"Pepper, just get ready for the mission, remember to lay waste to the city. Send out the evacuation notice. I want the fight between Scrooge and his family. No one else will get hurt," Oracle stated.
"What about those who stay?" Pepper asked.
"Then we'll deal with it tomorrow." He replied. She looked at him as a kid who had lost everything angry at someone who wasn't even responsible for the things he lost. Pepper wasn't convinced of his plan, and she also couldn't let this kid throw away his life so recklessly. They arrived at the base which was their old Funzo's Location hiding in plain sight as of a week ago. Oracle had the door opened by Ruckerduck's Frankenstein monster.
"Oracle I'm going to go do some final runs before the night ends." Pepper said to Oracle. The kid nodded.
"Remember no flaws, eyes and ears everywhere." Oracle responded by turning in and getting ready for tomorrow.
Mcduck Manor…
Tonight was movie night. Scrooge had decided to give Louie a break from the adventure's since he knew his youngest nephew was beginning to get burnt out. Also Huey and Dewey were trying to successfully transition to highschool as freshmen this year. Louie surprisingly adjusted way faster than Dewey and Huey have been. Della was still working on the Cloudslayer. Webby, June, May, Violet, and Lena were having a sleepover downstairs. Donald was in his house boat in the pool having a date night with his fiance Daisy. Beakley was cleaning, and Launchpad was home for the evening. Tonight everything was perfect, he thought.
A cursed thought to have if your Scrooge McDuck, as he heard the crashing from down stairs followed by several thuds. He ran hearing the rest of his family moving into the main living room. The sleepover party arrived first, seeing Beakley in a fighting stance. Della, Donald, and Daisy were next to be followed with a similar aggressive stance. Louie, Dewey, and Huey all were in their aggressive stance as well.
Before them stood Phantom Blot and his partner Pepper, the F.O.W.L elite. With a beat up rose gallery of Scrooge's villains every single one of them accounted for. Magica, Ma Beagle, Glomgold, Mark Beaks, and Don Karnage. They were all afraid, like they had seen a ghost. Blot and Pepper looked unscathed. Mumblings about "he's coming" coming from the group of dazed villains.
"Scrooge and Family, we come here as allies," Pepper said, Blot nodding as well to the confusion of the whole family, "Someone is coming for all of you with an aggression only matched by what he's lost. His code name is Oracle. Real identity Quincy Heron. Last descendant of the Heron line."
"I call lies, another F.O.W.L trick." He said, narrowing his eyes.
Blot who hated using technology pulled out a device placed on the floor flooding from it was a holographic screen. Of the battle from earlier, clear as day for the entire family to see standing there. Adorned in a F.O.W.L branded hoodie, a robotic leg, an arm that the family knew all too well, that sharp lightly orange beak, left eye of purple, right eye of green set ablaze by that intense flame of rage. As he single handedly beat every villain by himself with the video being cut off. Scrooge looked to Beakley who was just as shocked as he was. He signaled everyone to drop their stance. The boys, and the girls looked like they had seen a ghost.
"We know that kid," Huey said, "He tried to stop us from saving you guys on the roof, till Dewey sent him crashing off the side of the library." Dewey guiltily smiled, Louie was shocked.
"He was in a wreckage, but he vanished before we could come back for him. We thought he was gone. We never thought to tell you since F.O.W.L was done." May said. Scrooge looked at what his demons had brought him, a meteorite covered in feathers ready for touchdown.
"That day he lost everything. F.O.W.L his home, his mother, Bradford took his ability to trust anyone, and he lost his arm and leg. For two long years his anger has been stirring, and it is going to reach his crescendo tomorrow. Look he's not a bad kid," Pepper pleaded, and looked at Scrooge, "I ask with no business asking for your help. The people in his circle are evil people like Rockerduck, and Steelbeak. He isn't taking in the details like he used to as F.O.W.L's communication officer; he's in real danger. They're plotting something. If they have his army of drones it could spell disaster"
Oracle's Room, early in the morning…
Steelbeak entered his room with that cocky grin. Oracle narrowed his eyes angrily at him shortly followed by John D. Rockerduck with another cocky smile. "You know you of all people should have seen this coming." Rockerduck stated.
"Betray me. I honestly expected you two to do this sooner." Oracle responded with that look of anger.
"Yeah, but I tampered with your codes, and Ruckerduck's F.O.W.L will lay real destruction to the city of Duckburg. Every single inhabitant will know my wrath as I steal the world with your fleet of drones." Rockerduck said as one of the combat bots Oracle designed walked into the room, "Sorry kid Rockerduck's tired of playing second fiddle."
"This was supposed to be a clean operation," Oracle stated.
"We're villains, we don't do clean operations. You're just a wannabe. You're nothing, but an angry kid," Rockerduck said. Oracle thought about all the people who were about to get hurt or worse.
"I can't let you do this," Oracle said. Realizing Pepper was right, he's not a villain like his mom, and he had been holding a grudge for a long time now.
"Like you could stop me. You're an 11 year old kid." Rockerduck mocked, "Whose in over his head, Robot, Jeeves, Steelbeak relieve him of his duties."
Oracle attacked first as he was launched out of Funzos into the early morning skies. As the Robot flew him into the center of Duckburg. Just before he was about to hit the ground, he slipped out and made the robot crash into the ground first causing it to break, sending him skidding and eventually landing on his feet. Causing the whole city to panic. "Everyone get out of here you're all in danger!" He shouted, realizing that he really messed up his last two years being picked up by Jeeves from behind who turned him around with a strong punch to the face sending him into the air. He landed on his back with an oof, only to have too quickly dodged the Steelbeak's signature beak of death tearing the F.O.W.L hoodie revealing a red t-shirt underneath it.
McDuck Manor…
The family stood there trying to figure out how to process the information they got last night Pepper and Blot were still in the living room. When their broadcast channels were hacked. "Anyone who is getting this message," Oracle started, he said kicking Steelbeek who went flying into Jeeves, "If you're getting this message evacuate the city. My name is Quincy Heron, son of the infamous Black Heron and this is my fault, and I'll fix it myself, but you need to leave before the whole city gets overrun by these." He put up a prompt of a drone video of the combat drones fighting in a training scenario with absolutely obliterating everything in sight. "Leave your all in danger." Broadcast cut out.
"That's not a plan, that's a crash." Louie said knowing exactly how that was going to play out. "I know I'm not one for second chance's, but he is about to risk everything to try and stop it. We need to help him."
"Agreed, Pepper, Blot. You have yourselves a deal, everyone into the Cloudslayer we got a day to save." Scrooge ordered, the family got ready for the fight that was coming.
Main Streets…
A tired Steelbeak and Jeeves were honestly just stalling till robot backup was unleashed. Oracle wasn't without his scars either he had been hit by Jeeves full force his beak was definitely damaged. Jeeves got back up and charged since he was mostly dead anyway. "Oh come on!" Oracle shouted, narrowing his eyes ready for round four when Gizmoduck crashed and punched Jeeves off and into a building. Who dropped his round two stance taking a break. Looking up to a familiar face, an angry face too. "Agent…" he took a deep breath collecting his energy, "I'm gonna throw up. Ugh. Agent D?"
"Sup twerp."Gandra Dee, who looked angrily while Gizmoduck attacked the duo of muscle, "Really my designs. Those were experimental."
"In my defense you left F.O.W.L and I know everything that happened at F.O.W.L," Oracle said guiltily, as Gizmoduck came flying back at them being hit by Jeeves. "We'll talk later. Now I'm ending this." He pulled out a stun ray shooting both of the muscles who went down easily, having his arm turn back. Almost as if they thought it was over the drones came flying out by the dozens.
"Got a plan?" Gandra asked.
"Not a great one. There are exactly 128 drones. 128 fights as we have to reach Rockerduck all the way across town at Funzos." Oracle replied, "So make heads roll I guess," He said, making his arm turn into a laser arm as he pointed at the drones flying at them. Gandra rolled her eyes.
"Honestly, I kept you a secret cause I know your mother, she'll find a way to spite me from the grave. Also I thought you died. I saw you crashing off the side of the Library all those years ago." stated Gandra who started blasting electricity at the drones.
"You knew my mother, we die hard, and see you haven't changed a bit." He stated. Helping by shooting drones. To his dismay the real problems shrugged off the taser, and were beginning to surface again. "We could really use more hands."
Only to hear a honking car behind them as it swerved and parked sideways. Out stepped McDuck family, and also out came Pepper and Phantom Blot. "So is everybody betraying me today, or am I just really lucky today." He ran over to Pepper and Blot.
Pepper just couldn't help, but hug him lifting off the ground who was caught off guard, but he really needed that right now. "Hey, Pepper. Lemme guess still trying to save my fate aren't you." Oracle stated, Pepper nodded and put him down. He looked at the McDucks. "We'll talk after we deal with those, and those buffoons." Jeeves and Steelbeak stated. "Get to Drone breaking. About 120 more left."
"Lad, I just wanted to say I'm sorry- '' Scrooge started.
"Save it. Honestly this one's on me." He said turning to Blot and Pepper, "Scrooge, your family needs to get to Funzos."
"But what about the robots? You sure you can handle all of that." Della pointed at the hundreds of drones and two meatheads.
"First off Cool leg," Oracle said, causing Della to smile, "I've been needing to blow off steam anyway. Plus I turned 11 like a week ago. I'm basically qualified for this." He said with all the confidence of someone not in over his head. He hit a button on his robotic leg flared out into a flying device allowing him to fly, and so did his arm. Dewey and Della were like I want my leg to have spikes. "Pepper, Blot with me we got demolition to do. If I remember anything about it, the red one is good for computers, there's an override switch, hit it, the operation stops." As they went back to fighting these very even odds alongside Gandra Dee.
"You think they got this?" asked Phantom Blot. Oracle laughed thinking it was a joke charging and crashing into Jeeves, breaking a lot of drones due to his big frame. "I guess that's a yes." Who shrugged charging at Jeeves where they engaged in a long combat till Jeeves had the upper hand. Another drone was detected by Oracle's sensors to go off. As he was blasting at drone's tailing him.
"Uh that one is not one of Rockerduck's," He said hovering fighting getting tailed by robots, who were suddenly cut down by unsuspecting laser vision. Oracle covered his eyes from the smoke hovering seeing a gray parrot hovering as well.
"Hi my name is Boyd, definitely a real boy." Boyd said. Odd, but he was also busy with other problems to dissect what was happening. "I'm here to help." Oracle did an after you motion as Boyd went about his robot destroying business. Oracle went after Steelbeak crashing him into an empty building.
"I hope you know you're fired," Oracle stated, turning his arm and leg back.
"If it isn't the twerp," Steelbeak said, running at him angrily, "I eat twerps for breakfast." He punched wildly as he tried to hit Oracle.
"I see someone's mad," He said dodging a lot of them because he was short. Oracle got clipped, sending him back out into the streets. Seeing that Pepper, Agent D, Blot, and Gizmoduck were getting overrun. Boyd was running out of options.
"Face it kid you lost," Steelbeak said standing over him mocking him. Oracle looked at Pepper who was looking at a laser pointed at her waiting to fire the same as Phantom Blot, Gizmoduck and Agent D.
"Boyd, get out of this block radius and trust me I can handle it from here." He said Boyd followed, flying off with concern. He hit the red button on his arm and knocked out all electrical systems on this street saving his friends, not his family from the drones. "Jeeves, Steeljaw leave them out of this. This is between you two and me." With the two meatheads charging him. He looked at Pepper, and Blot, took a long blink, and thought about not saving his mom.
"Mom," He said in his mind.
"Quincy Heron, show them what Heron's do." Black Heron said grinning, "Bye, kid."
"Bye, Mom." He grinned back a single tear left his eye as he came back to reality just as the two men attacked him. He jumped kicking Steeljaw in the face, using it as a launch pad as he launched putting all the force he could muster behind it. His metal fist crashes into Jeeves face, shattering Oracle's arm with a shockwave knocking out the first titan. Steelbeak staggered back and foolishly charged Oracle down an arm. "Steelbeak, mom says you really are stupid." Steelbeak lost it sending a fist leaving him wide open. He jumped kick connecting with another shockwave metal shattering kick, as the kid and the Steeljaw hit the ground. Causing Oracle to go oof. As Steelbeak laid knocked out in a crater of asphalt. "Also again. You're fired." Oracle said armless and legless. Pepper, Gandra, Gizmoduck, and Agent D mouth agape shocked about the scene they had just witnessed.
Rockerduck's Base…
Rockerduck was defeated rather easily, apparently his plan was really one dimensional, not a lot of ways out for the old geezer, who apparently was caught off guard when he witnessed his two best men get absolutely destroyed by an 11 year old boy with two robotic limbs now laid in ruins. Nothing but nuts and bolts. You could hear the strikes from across town. The McDucks honestly handled the rest really easily as Huey shut down all the drones remaining were 45. As this finally marked the end of F.O.W.L for good.
"The lad did good," Scrooge said pointing at the camera's of Blot carrying Oracle, "We have a lot to discuss with him, Prepare some rooms they deserve the rest."
