Author's Note: PLEASE READ THE AUTHOR'S NOTE BEFORE YOU BEGIN!

First of all, I'd like to say, I'm sorry for only publishing this single chapter this weekend. After the crazy weekend this site has had, I've been held back a bit. I promise I'll have more chapter updates NEXT weekend, but for this one, you'll have to settle for just one. Again, sorry.

Also, I'd appreciate there not be any questions or comments regarding this fanfiction site or my plans if anything does happen to it. I don't like to think much about a plan outside of , and I don't want to upload my stories anywhere else unless I have to. So if you can only comment on the story please, I'd really love that.

Anyway, that's all I have for now. Enjoy the chapter. Any and all comments are welcome.

After over ten years of separation, the Duck twins, Donald and Della, were finally reunited. And the first thing they did upon seeing each other again and meeting face to face once more… was yell at each other.

"WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?!" they both asked loudly.

"If you were home when I got back, you'd know I was stuck on the moon," Della shouted, "Which, by the way, is invading us!"

"I know!" Donald yelled back. "I warned you!"

"We didn't get a warning!" Della returned.

"But I gave one!" Donald yelled. "I used an open signal to send my message hoping you'd catch it!"

"Wait, an open signal?" Howard asked widening his eyes, which he then narrowed as he marched over to Donald. "You mean to tell me that you're the one who sent out the message alerting every alien in the galaxy of my location?!"

"Stop yelling at each other." Dewey said… right before tackling Donald to the sand and yelling at him himself. "I could have been named Turbo! You owe me eleven years of Turbo!"

"Everyone, stop changing the subject!" Della yelled before returning to Donald. "Just because I missed you doesn't mean I'm not mad at you!"

"I missed you too, you big dummy!" Donald returned.

On that, Donald and Della stopped yelling, and instead, took each other in a loving embrace. It was a heartwarming family moment… until Donald held up his melon and spoke in a squeaky voice again.

"Oh, boy. I love a reunion."

"Whoa!" Della exclaimed moving away from Donald and his melon. "Has the belong been a thing the whole time I've been gone or…"

"No, that's new." Huey said.

"So this is Donald?" Howard asked. "He seems a bit… nuttier than you all described." His tone changed when Della shot a murderous glare at him. Clearly, she was still mad at him for lying and hiding the fact that he was a criminal with a ton of enemies after him. He hung his head in shame.

"Thank goodness you found us." Donald said in his melon voice. "After Penumbra helped Donald escape those evil Moonlanders, why, he crash landed on this island." He then spoke in his normal voice. "Where I met my best friend."

"You met Penny on the moon?" Della asked. "Is she okay? I miss her constantly trying to impale me."

"We'e been having a real good time. Sharing sand-wiches. Drinking seawater smoothies to drown our sorrows."

"You've been surviving on seawater and sand this whole time?" Webby asked.

"But now, I'm saved!" Donald cheered inviting everybody for a group hug. Howard wanted to join, but stopped when he remembered that everyone was still mad at him. They probably wouldn't welcome him anyway.

"You must have been searching for him for months!"

"Yyyyyes." Huey said nervously. "We totally knew you were missing and not on a cruise."

"I told you your family would never forget you," Donald said turning the melon to himself, "Which is why you have to go back, my friend."

"Lunaris is a monster!" Donald proclaimed. "We have to go help Uncle Scrooge!"

"And now that we found you, we can all fight Lunaris together." Louie stated.

Everyone stood up and was about to leave, but Della jumped in their way. "No way. The plan is to keep you as far away from danger as possible. Besides, Scrooge knows exactly what he's doing."

"Della, we don't know that for certain." Howard said. "Scrooge has never faced anything from outer space before. He might…"

Della shot another glare at him making him shut up. "Don't try to act concerned, buster! You don't get a say anymore!"

"Uh, what's going on?" Donald asked.

"Oh, it turns out that Howard there is a space criminal." Dewey explained. "We just found out about it, like, five minutes ago."

"Just now?" Donald asked. "You waited until now to tell them?"

"Della, I can explain…"

"No, Howard!" Della shouted. "I'm DONE listening to you! You've done nothing but lie and put my family in danger, all so you can use us as a cover!"

"Mom, wait." Louie said. "I think Howard deserves a chance to explain."

"He had his chance, and he just sat there while the rest of the galaxy closed in on us just to get to him!" Della shouted.

"Della, I know you're angry," Donald said, "But we need Howard if we're going to get out of this!"

"WHAT?!" Della shouted. "No, no, no, no! I don't need him! The last thing I need is him!" Della leaned her head closer to Howard's face. "In fact, the only thing I need is for him to leave, AND NEVER COME BACK!"

Della's outburst echoed through the island. Everyone was speechless, including Howard, who looked down at the sand.

"Okay. If that's what you want, I'll leave. And I'll never come back." Howard said softly. "Just let me grab my stuff, and I'll be out of your hair. For what it's worth, Della, I always liked you. More than I could possibly describe."

He proceeded to return to the crashed plane to get all that he needed. Della turned her back to him and crossed her arms angrily while the rest of the family watched feeling sorry for the both of them. Without any of them knowing, Della tried and failed to fight back the tears forming in her eyes.

After Howard said his goodbyes and headed into the forest, Della did some remodeling of the remains of the plane. When she was done, she presented it to Donald and the kids. Pretty much, all she did was set up three lockers with a rain tarp over them.

"Ta-da! Welcome home!" Della shouted. "We can live here as long as we need! Look, kids! You have your own rooms!"

Della turned back to her family and saw that they weren't paying attention to her. They crouched over a schematic drawn in the sand by Huey. Despite her insistence, they were still plotting on how to escape the island and take the fight to Lunaris.

"So let's see. We've got this tree, sand, and water. Whole lot of both." Huey described. "How can this get us home?"

"Ooh! Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh!" Dewey held up his hand like an excited child in a classroom.

"Keeping in mind Dewey can't surf us to safety because he does not know how to surf." Louie pointed out.

"We don't know that until I try!" Dewey took a piece of metal from the plane and jumped out into the ocean… only to immediately be washed back to shore.

"Welcome back." Webby said.

"If we do get home, what about Lunaris?" Donald asked before speaking in his melon voice. "Yeah. We need a plan to end all plans to deal with him. And it won't be easy."

"How so?" Huey asked.

"Donald told me everything. Apparently, Lunaris has access to advanced technology that allows him to see anything he wants on the Earth. Whatever we plan, he's going to see coming miles away."

"So that's how Lunaris knew where to find all of Scrooge's secret weapons." Webby said.

"And it won't matter what plan Scrooge comes up with now if Lunaris is just going to see him coming." Huey said. "Louie…"

"Actually, I'm stumped." Louie admitted. "If he can see anything happening on Earth, this will take an angle even I can't see. Do you know how to counteract his technology, Uncle Donald?"

Donald shook his head. "I'm afraid not. All I know is that Howard is the key. I just don't know how."

"Sounds like we need Howard after all." Huey said.

"No way!" Della interrupted. "I'm not trusting that liar with anything! We're perfectly fine as long as we stick to the plan. So who's up for beach volleyball? Melon, I'm looking at you. 'Cause we're gonna need a ball."

"No!" Donald yelled holding tightly to his melon.

"Mom, I know you're mad at Howard." Huey said. "But this is bigger than us. If Howard is the key to stopping to Lunaris, then we need to at least try to make things right with him."

"After what he's done? Forget it!" Della shouted.

"But the Earth needs our help." Webby pleaded. "And if Donald said is true, we'll need Howard's help."

"Scrooge will handle it." Della said.

"Mom, did you forget about the part where Lunaris has advanced spying equipment keeping an eye on Scrooge?" Huey asked. "Even he can't be sharp enough to evade those!"

"And even if we did agree to stay, how are we supposed to survive?" Louie asked.

"It's fine! Everything's fine!" Della said. "We got a bunch of sand, zero contact with the outside world, a crashed plane we can use as a house, and…" She turned and saw a crab trying to take away a piece of the plane. "Hey! Shoo, monster taking my stuff!" She turned back to her family with a forced smile. "Living here is great!"

"No offense, Mom," Dewey said, "But we might as well be living on the moon."

"WHAT?!" Della shouted before letting out delirious laughter. "HAHAHAHA! You must be delirious from hunger! Here, have some delicious oxy… chew…" Her smile quickly dropped when she realized how similar her situation was to how she was before. "Oh, no! No, no, no! This is the moon all over again!"

Out of anger, Della got close enough to Donald's melon and kicked it hard with her metal leg. It was knocked out of Donald's hand and sent flying out into the distant ocean.

"SEE YA REAL SOOOOOOOON!"

"NOOOOO!" Donald yelled watching his "friend" disappear.

Della was both distraut and angry with everything. Her family stranded on a deserted island, the planet in jeopardy, and the man she admired turning out to have lied to her. Without another word, she walked away from the group and headed to the plane. Louie watched her and decided to follow.

When Della returned inside the ship, she held up a drawing of three poorly-sketched duck boys. She hummed to herself looking solemnly at it. Her eyes then spotted a picture of herself and Howard standing behind the boys. They were all happy in it, but presently, Della was conflicted. No, "conflicted" would be an understatement.

"Hey, Mom." Della turned and saw Louie standing there. He looked at the drawing she hung up.

"I drew this back when I had to imagine what you boys looked like." Della said.

Louie smiled softly. "I think you really nailed Dewey."

"On the moon, all I could think about was being your mom. The adventures. The fun." Della said leaning on the plane wall. "I wasn't prepared for all this. For the Moonlanders' invasion. For worrying about putting you in danger. …For Howard."

"You really like him, don't you?" Louie asked sitting beside her.

"…I do," Della confessed with a sigh, "Which is just infuriating. I mean, how can I like a guy who spent months with my family lying about who he is and what he's really doing here?"

Louie thought for a moment before finally speaking up. "You should know, Mom, me and Uncle Scrooge already knew Howard's truth."

"What?" Della asked looking at her son.

"Yeah. He told us the other day. He also told us that all he wanted now was for you to understand. I think it's a clear indication that he likes you too."

"Why didn't he tell us sooner?" Della asked.

"I'm guessing he tried to, but between all the Timephoons, the villain team-ups, the mystical curses, and now an alien invasion, he couldn't get a word in." Louie said. "I also think he was scared because he didn't want to hurt you or us."

"He still put us in danger for not telling us about all the other aliens that are after him."

"Yeah, I get that, but honestly, we're the Duck Family. We face danger and surprises every day before breakfast. And I must admit, I hate surprises. I like seeing every angle of a situation so that I can take control of it. But you can't plan for everything. Sometimes, a robot boy uses you as a pinata."

"Like that time at the rich kid's birthday?"

"Yeah, that. But sometimes, the mom you thought you lost comes back. And that's a surprise too. So you deal with the bad surprises because they may lead to a good one."

"But what if Lunaris succeeds? What if one of Howard's enemies comes after us? What if I lose you again? What if…"

"You know, when I'm terrified, which is often, I try to remember this old song. Face each new son with eyes clear and true, unafraid of the unknown…"

Della, recognizing her own song, stood back up and smiled while finishing it. "Because I'll face it all with you. I wrote that song before I got lost. How did you hear it?"

"Well, Uncle Donald used to sing it to us when we were little."

"It's true." Donald said revealing himself and the rest of the kids at the plane's entrance. "Every night."

"That's a pretty good surprise." Della said.

"And so is Howard." Louie said. "I know he lied and broke the law, but he's still a good guy. Like when he outed my little time heist scheme."

"Or the time he helped us survive the Doomsday Vault." Dewey said.

"Or when he helped Uncle Scrooge defeat Glomgold at the final day of the bet." Huey said.

"Or when he saved us and Lena from that time Magica invaded our dreams." Webby said.

"But most of all, Mom," Louie said, "He helped bring you back to us."

Della's heart skipped a beat. She looked back at all the moments the kids described and smiled at them. "You're right. Let's go face the unknown together. And it starts with making things right with Howard."

"He couldn't have gone that far." Huey said. "He went into the forest, so I think we can…"

Suddenly, a strong gust of wind blew past them as a spaceship flew overhead. They looked up and saw the Nova Corps ship they saw earlier fly over to the far side of the island.

"What's that?" Donald asked.

"That's the Nova ship we saw earlier." Webby said.

"What's it doing here?" Dewey asked.

Della gasped and looked over at the ship's controls. She finally noticed that the radio was missing.

"Oh, no! Howard, what are you doing?!"

When the Duck family ran all the way across the forest, they found themselves at another beach. This one had Titus' ship docked on the sand. The cyborg tiger himself had put advanced alien cuffs at Howard's wrists and dragged him to the ship away from a plane radio that was modified to be self-sufficient. All the while, the Duck family watched from the bushes while Howard hung his head in shame complying to Titus' instructions.

"He's got Howard." Dewey gasped.

"Not on our watch!" Della shouted. She and the family ran out of the bushes just as the door to the ship began to close. They all managed to make it just in time. When they were inside the ship, they hid themselves in the open closet beside them so they could spy on them.

Titus brought Howard to a circular machine that slid its front open. He roughly pushed Howard a step ahead toward it.

"Get in the stasis pod!" Titus ordered.

"Stasis pod?" Howard asked. "Why? I surrendered willingly."

"I'm not taking chances with you." Titus said. "I'm putting you to sleep, and we're heading straight to the Kiln prison where you belong."

"Straight to the Kiln?" Howard asked again. "Wait, what about our agreement? You said you'd take the family on the island and back to their home; that you'd call a fleet of Nova Corps officers to free this planet from the Moonlanders! That was the deal!"

"Even if I wanted to, it's out of my hands." Titus said. "I cannot waste a single second giving you a chance to escape again, not even when it comes to stranded Earthers. And as for the invasion, these 'Moonlanders' and the moon they come from are part of the Earth sector. Nova Corps handle interplanetary situations. Technically speaking, the Moonlanders are not doing anything that warrants Nova Corps interference."

Howard's jaw dropped. "Are you insane?! You're Nova Corps! You're job is to protect the galaxy and everyone in it! You can't…" He was cut off when Titus grabbed him by the throat and held him up.

"I don't need a lecture from a criminal who's never cared for anyone in his life!"

"HEY!" Della shouted getting both of their attention. She jumped out of her hiding place along with her sons and Donald. "If you think he doesn't care, you've got that robot eye screwed on too tight!"

Webby, who was yet to be seen, latched herself on the wall and climbed up to the ceiling.

"Della?! Kids?!" Howard gasped.

"Who are you?" Titus asked with an angry growl.

"We're the Duck family, whiskers!" Dewey shouted. "Now, put our friend down or else!"

"Or else what?" Titus asked daringly.

"Or else we will have to use our Earth powers on you!" Louie declared.

"Earth powers?" Titus asked.

"Earth powers?" Howard asked.

"Oh, right. You're not from around here, are you?" Louie asked with a smug smile. "Well, here on Earth, we have psychic powers."

"You're bluffing." Titus said just as Webby climbed over to right above his head.

"Oh, really? Well, I guess I'll have to prove it." Louie said. He had his fingers to his head, closed his eyes, and hummed for a moment. "With my powers of prediction, I foresee that you are about to have a splitting headache."

"A what?" Titus asked.

"HI-YA!" Webby shouted as she let herself drop and land a strong kick right to the top of Titus' head. The impact made him yell enough for him to release Howard, who flew out of his claws and into Della's arms.

Howard looked at Della in disbelief. "You came back for me?"

"Of course, I did, you big palooka." Della replied with a smile before setting him back to his feet.

Titus quickly recovered and growled angrily at all the Ducks standing against him. "Interfering with Nova Corps business. Aiding and abetting a known criminal. That settles it. I'm taking you ALL in!"

"Try it, tabby!" Dewey dared. He ran over to Titus and slid with his body down on the floor. Titus tried to grab him, but he managed to slip between his legs and get behind him.

While Titus was distracted, Huey and Louie jumped to Titus' shoulders and plucked his whiskers right off his face. He yelled in pain stumbling backwards just as Dewey crouched down this his back up. When Titus stepped over to him, he fell over backward and slammed onto the ground.

"I'm going over to call the rest of the Nova Corps!" Howard shouted looking over at the control station.

"What? Are you nuts?" Della asked. "If you tell them where you are, they'll arrest you!"

"They're the only ones with the firepower to stop Lunaris and save the Earth!" Howard replied before running over to the control panel.

Once he reached the front of the ship, he began turning dials and pushing buttons at a specific part of the command board. He stopped when a holographic image of Nova Prime appeared in front of him.

"Captain Titus, what…" Nova Prime stopped when she looked hard at Howard. "You? What's the meaning of this? Where's Titus?"

"That's not important!" Howard shouted. "Listen to me! The…"

"HOLD IT RIGHT THERE!" Titus shouted getting back up. He held up his mechanical arm cannon and fired a blast from it.

Howard managed to dodge away from the blast, but it hit and blew up the controls of the ship. Howard gasped, but he was cut off when Titus grabbed him by the throat. He then threw him around until he hit all four of the kids knocking them all to the wall. They recovered and looked up at Titus, who aimed his cannon at them.

"You're going into custody, alive or dead!" Titus said preparing to fire.

"HEY!" Donald yelled getting Titus' attention. He stood beside his twin sister sharing angry looks at him. "No one messes with our kids and gets away with it!"

Titus blinked twice caught off-guard by Donald's voice. "I'm sorry. What?"

"AAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!"

Both Donald and Della yelled as they lunged themselves at Titus. The tiger alien was surprised as he felt them crawl over his body at lightning speed. They attacked him many times in numerous places such as his face, his head, his body, and other parts.

"Everyone, together!" Howard shouted. He and the other kids ran over to the wall and jumped onto it. Donald and Della jumped off of Titus and joined their family on the wall. At the same time, they thrusted themselves off and headed right to Titus' direction. They all extended their legs and kicked Titus so hard, he was sent crashing backwards.

When Titus recovered, he gasped realizing where he was. He was standing right inside of the stasis pod that he was going to throw Howard in. Only now, he was the one inside, and the Duck family were the ones outside where the pod controls were.

"No! You can't do this!" Titus roared. "I'm the good guy here!"

"You'd be surprised how many bad guys say that." Della said before slamming her hand on the controls.

Suddenly, the doors sealed around Titus and lit up a flash of blue light. They then looked inside through a small window and saw Titus frozen solid. He looked like he was about to reach for the door, but stopped moving. He was still as a statue unable to move a single muscle.

"Well, the good news is, that's it for the psycho-cat." Howard said before looking at what was left of the blasted controls. "The bad news is, we're still stranded thanks to him."

"So now what?" Louie asked.

"First," Della said looking over to Howard, "It's time we talk. Honestly."

Once they exited Titus' ship, the Duck family gathered around Howard, who's heart began racing. They sat down as he paced. After a minute, he took a breath and turned to the others nervously.

"Okay. So it's about time I came clean." Howard said. "What do you want to know?"

"Everything. From the beginning." Della said. "And this time, no lies."

Howard frowned and confessed. "As most of you know, my home planet was destroyed by Galactus, the Devourer of Worlds. I was just outside of my planet on a trip when it happened, but I still saw that monster destroy my home before my eyes. After that, everything got a whole lot harder.

"I was alone and desperate, so to put food on the plate, I was open to any job I could find out in the cold, cruel galaxy. I managed to find work as a supplier for a delivery company. But then, I learned that the company I worked at was instigating a civil war on a neighboring planet to profit off selling weapons. Of course, by the time I found that out, it was too late. The Nova Corps got involved and arrested everyone there. They mistakenly thought I was involved and arrested me too.

"After a year, there was a mass prison breakout, and I managed to escape. I tried looking for work again, but I had even less luck than before. Nobody really wanted a criminal on their payroll. It was impossible for me to find work… at least, legit work."

"So you turned to a criminal life." Webby surmised.

Howard nodded. "Now, I may have been a crook, but I had standards. And despite what they said about my crimes, I always had a good reason for them, and I always tried my best to not hurt anyone. I still had a 'heart of gold'. Unfortunately, no one in the Nova Corps was willing to listen. They'd rather see a crime than the true nature of the guy doing it." He looked over at Della, who looked at him understanding. "I'm not a bad guy. Just had bad luck."

Della finally rose to her feet and approached Howard. She looked at him silently before hugging him. He embraced him tightly Howard gasped quietly before hugging back. Everyone else watched with tearful smiles.

"Oh, yeah. They're definitely ship-worthy." Huey stated.

"What?!" Donald asked. "Hey, that's my sister, you…"

"Don't ruin the moment, Uncle Donald." Dewey said.

"I'm sorry, Howard." Della said breaking the hug. "I'm glad you're a good person. And I'm even more glad that you're one of us. So, you ready to face the unknown."

"You bet I am." Howard said confidently. "Okay, before we do anything, we need a plan."

"That's gonna be harder than we thought." Huey said. "As it turns out, Lunaris has access to advanced spying equipment that allows him to literally see anything in the universe. Whatever we plan, he's going to see coming."

"Hmm. That's a tough one." Howard said.

"Yeah." Della said. "Even if we go after him with the biggest weapon of all, he's probably going to have a hundred Moonlanders waiting for us."

"A hundred…" Howard repeated before realizing something. "Wait a minute. The army…" He turned to Della's brother. "Donald, you spent time on the moon and saw Lunaris' operation. Do you know why they follow him? When me and Della last saw them, we thought we left on the best terms."

"Lunaris lied to them." Donald answered. "He made them think that you and Della were spies and that the Earth was planning to invade them. They think they're just defending themselves."

"Lunaris, that lunar lunatic." Della grumbled. "He must have been planning this from the start."

Howard's eyes lit up. He placed his finger to his chin and paced around mumbling to himself. When he stopped, he smiled and chuckled.

"Oh, yeah. I know how to stop him now. I know how to end this entire invasion."

"You do?" Louie asked. "How?"

"It's best if I keep it to myself in case Lunaris is listening in." Howard said. "Right now, our biggest problem is getting off this island. Our plane crashed, and Titus' ship controls have been shot. So how…"

"AHOY THERE!"

Everyone turned and gazed at a most magnificent sight. Towering over them was a giant, big-as-life, purple krill with a rope around it connected to a blimp hovering behind it. At the top of its head stood two ducks, one in a fancy, green suit and the other in a red beanie that matched his jacket. The duck in the green suit was eating Donald's melon.

"Mitzi?" Huey asked.

"Cousin Gladstone? Cousin Fethry?" Della asked

"Uh, what am I looking at?" Howard asked.

"Right." Della said. "Howard, these are me and Donald's cousins, Gladstone and Fethry. Gladstone is probably the luckiest duck in the world and last I saw Fethry, he was holed up in his marine biology site excited about krill."

"Well, we saw them both recently." Huey said. "The big krill is Mitzi, a mutated friend of Fethry's."

Howard continued to stare at the giant krill while Gladstone and Fethry climbed down to the beach. "You know, I'd probably call this the craziest thing I've ever seen if I hadn't already learned that you guys knew actual gods."

"Ah, you must be the space ace, Howie." Gladstone greeted.

"Nice to meet you." Fethry said. "And it's good to see you too, everyone. Della, Donald, Huey, Dewey, green kid, girl kid, airplane, space ship, palm tree…" Gladstone shut him up by shoving a bit of the melon into his mouth.

"Where did you guys come from?" Donald asked.

"Funny story." Gladstone said eating the melon. "Luckily, my blimp was blown clear of the invasion and out to sea. That's where Fethry and the lovely Mitzi found me. And just as I was getting puckish, we saw these melons floating in the ocean, which led us here. Crazy, huh? You want some, Donaldo?" Donald didn't answer. He just stared in horror seeing his melon half-eaten.

"You guys need a lift?" Fethry asked.

"Yes. Back to Duckburg." Della said.

"That seems a bit of a risk, even with our luck." Gladstone said. "That Lunaris guy set up a giant rocket in the bay. He calls it a 'planetary engine'."

Howard's eyes widened. "WHAT?! A planetary engine?! No wonder everything suddenly felt nippy! Those things are strong enough to move planets out of orbit!"

"Does that mean the planet's freezing?" Huey asked.

"Yes," Howard answered, "But the good news is, that's where Lunaris is going to be. In order for my plan to work, I need to confront him face to face. Fethry, tell Mitzi to take us to Duckburg!"

"If you say so." Fethry said.

And so, everyone rode on Mitzi's head as she carried them across the ocean. The city of Duckburg was in the very direction they were heading. On one side of Mitzi's head, the adults stood in different poses. Fethry stood in wonderment, Gladstone laid on his back relaxed, Della had her hands to her hips, and Donald took an action pose ready to strike at any time. On the other side, the kids were making the same poses, respectively Huey, Louie, Webby, and Dewey.

Dewey noticed how similar they all stood and looked at him in disbelief. "Oh, man! Am I the Uncle Donald?"

At the center of the head, Howard stood with his arms crossed. His eyes narrowed at the horizon feeling every kilometer pass by him quickly.

"All right, Lunaris. No more Mr. Nice Duck."
