Neb: Vincent and Scrooge had gone diving together. They are now in pursuit of an ancient artifact called the Amulet of Quetzalcoatl. The amulet itself was once wielded by a Spanish Captain on the Rosa De La Reina before his boat was tragically attacked by the Pirate Captain Red Feathered Johnny. Also kicking myself for not calling him Johnny Red Feathers, that sounds way cooler. Anyways I do not own Ducktales. It is owned by Disney and this is just a fanfic starring my OC. Let me know in reviews or messages if you like how Vincent's character is so far. If there's any improvements that need to be made. I know we resolved his powers situation and his living situation, so the only conflict left really is Mr. Elite, and I'd rather have an internal conflict to go with that external one. Not that I can't come up with one, or their isn't one already there outside of his pride, but I want to here what my readers thing. I hope you enjoy the fanfic.
Down below the dark deep, Scrooge and Vincent made their way through the abyss with their diving gear and their flashlights. To be fair, on paper this wouldn't be the most exciting adventure compared to running through ancient tombs with arrows being shot at you. But there was merit to deep sea diving. Being able to change your perspective of the ocean from being on top of it to being below it was beautiful. The schools of fish everywhere, the under water floral, coral, and all sort of sediment looked amazing as well. Not to mention the broken ships themselves were a sight to behold, seeing these old boats covered in seaweed made Vincent wonder what they looked like when they were still floating.
Scrooge McDuck was also taken in by the scene before him. He's been on many deep sea diving adventures before, but each one were more special then the last. While yes, he did fight pirates aboard their ships in his past and he had fought sky pirates and undead pirates as well, simple adventures had their own unique charm to them.
Vincent pointed downwards towards a Spanish flag on one of the ships and Scrooge nodded back to him as the two were lowered further down. Eventually when they reached the ship they swam inside. The important things about deep sea adventures were watching out for Sharks or any other deep sea beasts that would kill humans. Surely enough there were tentacles coming out of the floorboards of the ship. Vincent supposed it was too small to be the legendary Kracken, so it must have been a regular Octopus. Still, the two of them didn't need to explore the hull, they just needed to find the Captain's Quarters in order to find the Amulet.
Scrooge was the first of them to find the Captain's Quarters in the broken ship, while Vincent was exploring the Deck of the Ship, taking pictures with his water resistant Camera to show Webby and her friends. Scrooge Waved Vincent over to him, and the two of them forced the door that was stuck open before swimming inside the Captain's Quarters. Immediately when they did so, tentacles shot out of the room grabbing hold of Vincent and Scrooge.
The two Ducks struggled to break free as Vincent grabbed hold of one of his Crystals. Scrooge shook his head at him before kicking the tentacles off of himself before using his cane to dislodge the cane from Vincent's leg.
Vincent supposed this meant Scrooge was still uncomfortable with Vincent using magic on their adventure. If that was the case, why even team up. He watched as Scrooge fought against the Octupus within the Captain's Quarters. Vincent then pulled out a knife and joined in the fight, severing some of the tentacles, causing the beast to flee. Vincent then swam to the Captain's desk where the skeleton of the Spanish Captain remained. Unfortunately, there was no amulet located on him or near him. Vincent found an old letter opener, that's blade looked clean and it's sheath was gold, but the amulet was no where to be found.
Scrooge shook his head to Vincent signalling him it was time to turn back. Once they've reset the oxygen in their tanks, they can attempt to search the other ships. Just when they were about to swim up Vincent stopped for a moment as something familiar caught his eye. He swam to the right and pointed his flashlight at the side of the room and found a magician's hat. Vincent stared at it in confusion, to which Scrooge swam over and gave a similar look.
That was when Vincent's look of confusion was replaced with a look of fear. Immediately he turned around and started swimming away from the hat in a panic.
If Scrooge could speak to Vincent right now, he'd ask Vincent what was wrong. But he couldn't, so all he could do was swim after the teenage boy. That was when he felt a strong current push against his body. Scrooge noticed the hat was now glowing gold as it was sucking in water forming a whirlpool. Scrooge started swimming harder along with Vincent, but the current was too strong for the adventurers as they got sucked into the magician's hat.
