Neb: Vincent is all healed up and geared up. After being in the hospital, thanks to the Enforcer of Order and the Shadow Syndicate, Vincent had a lot of time to work on his stories, catch up with the people who care about him, and accept help from others in spite his pride. After leaving the hospital it was reestablished that Vincent couldn't control his powers without a magic item to focus them through. For years it was his crystals who gave him power. Vincent and the Duck children had gone up to the attic to find a box of boggle where Webby had runes that were touched between realms by Lena when she was trapped in the shadow realm. They suspected that the runes would have left over magic. Then the duck kids got sucked into a painting because Lena didn't know how to control her powers either. There they found the magic store Artifact, Vincent's old home, and Vincent received a new set of crystals from a younger version of his old mentor. To add to that, the painting because it was magic was set to self detonate thanks to Vincent's destruction magic and the alchemists of the painting wanted to destroy Vincent in order to save their world. Upon escaping the painting it took a lot of manna out of Vincent, but he managed to seal away the explosion that was going to destroy the painting saving the Alchemists world. Vincent's new journey will be to head to Port Royal, where Vincent suspects he can find treasure. Will there be treasure and what will Vincent do with it if he finds it? We won't know until that happens. I do not own Ducktales, I hope you enjoy the story.

Port Royal, once was a British Naval Station and now a small fishing village. Fisher and Mann helped Vincent sail over to this port. Now Vincent's plan was to go diving to find treasure.

Vincent smiled as he stepped off of the boat and headed on to shore. Before he could begin his exploration he needed to set up a place to stay. "Are you two sure you don't want a hotel room?", Vincent asked his two sailor friends.

"Nah, we prefer staying with the boat," Mann waved his concern away.

"Plus, while you're doing your exploration thing," Fisher begun. "We can trade fishing stories with the locals."

"Alrght then," Vincent nodded. "Well, thanks for taking me down here again."

"Don't mention it kid, you're like one of the family," Mann grinned as she patted him on the back.

"As long as you don't have some hidden alias from the past anyways," Fisher joked. "You're not secretly somebody else are you?"

"No, I've been me my whole life," Vincent figured. "For better or worse."

"That's good," Fisher sighed. "Just don't grow up to be that Glomgold fella.

"Alright Fisher, he's got it," Mann pushed her partner away.

Vincent turned around ready to tackle his new journey. He found a hotel to stay in and he found a place where he could get diving gear. "Maybe I shouldn't have spent so much on the Satchel, the diving gear is a little expensive."

"Nonsense lad, you can borrow some of mine," a man spoke up behind him.

"Oh sir, I couldn't impose," Vincent begun before realizing he recognizes that voice. Vincent turned around to see Scrooge McDuck standing behind him in a similar explorer outfit.

"I like the new gear Vincent," Scrooge smiled. "But I would have gone for a smaller bag and some better spats instead. Lighter load means traveling fast, better spats means traveling far."

"W-what are you doing here Mr. McDuck?", Vincent wondered.

"Same as you I suspect," Scrooge pointed out. "Some friends of mine pointed out that there's a treasure hot spot that hasn't yet already been claimed. "That's ridiculous of course, because the last pirate treasure ever found was Captain Yellowbeak's treasure, and it was found by yours truly. But I will say, I went anyways just for some sight seeing. Getting to see all the pirate ships that sank under water is historical and fantastical."

"Oh," Vincent responded not sure how else to. Was everyone in the Duck family just intent on following him around everywhere. It was fine when it was just Webby at first, but now the entire family seems to be where ever he goes. Then again, the one time they weren't he got attacked by Britt and Quinn.

"Look lad, if you don't want my help that's fine," Scrooge sighed. "I just thought I could lend you a hand."

"N-no, I mean sure you can help," Vincent quickly replied. "Sorry, I'm trying to cut out the whole prideful attitude thing. After all that's what chased away my last home."

"You mean your magic store Artifact," Scrooge figured.

"Yeah," Vincent nodded. "I appreciate that you've been giving me a place to stay and I would be honored to learn from you." Vincent realized it was out of character for him to talk that way, but he had to swallow the notion that he could do everything on his own.

"Well I suppose if you insist then," Scrooge agreed. "But no need to grovel before me or flatter me, after all we are just two adventurers going on a joined mission. What do you say we be equals on this one."

Vincent remembered when Scrooge laughed at him when he referred to himself as a rival. "Why the sudden change of heart?", Vincent wondered. "I thought you didn't see us as equals."

"Well, in terms of experience yes," Scrooge nodded. "But I mean it in a way, that I won't try to upstage you or try to boss you around. You can learn from me if you want, but this will be your experience."

"I've never known you to take backseat," Vincent realized.

"And you never will," Scrooge scoffed. "That's why I said equals. I'm not here to be upstaged or to work for you either. Got it?"

"Yeah I get it," Vincent sighed and then smiled. He shook hands with Scrooge who smiled back at him.

"Strong grip lad, for a mage."
