Meanwhile in another universe...
The last thing Drake Mallard remembered was a blow to the head. He was knocked out, but by who or what, he wasn't sure. Before that, he was in his secret hideout, so unless Launchpad (likely by accident) or Gosalyn (why would she do that?) knocked him out, he had no idea who would know where he was.
So where was he now? His eyes struggled to open, and when they did, he found the room was dark. He could barely move, as he had been tied to a chair. His hands were tied behind his back, and his legs were tied to the legs of the chair.
He barely made out the figure standing in front of him. This figure was wearing a villainous variation of Darkwing Duck's classic outfit. Instead of purple and teal, this figure wore yellow, red, and black. Underneath his dark mask were a pair of piercing eyes that somehow glowed in the darkness. Something about him seemed familiar, but Darkwing couldn't place what it was.
"Hello, you haughty hack," the figure growled.
"Hi…" Darkwing said, a little too calm. "So, you must be my kidnapper? I actually haven't been kidnapped before. This is a little exciting." He shook his head to wake himself up more. This wasn't a role to get lost in, Drake. "Doesn't matter. What do you want? Where's my family?"
The figure scoffed. "'Family'? You know you don't need any sidekicks, right? The real Darkwing Duck was a solo act. The focus needed to be on him, not anybody else." The more Darkwing listened to the figure's voice, the more he realized almost every word out of this guy's mouth was a growl.
"I guess you also watched the show." Darkwing gestured with his head to the figure's costume. "And I've watched every episode a million times. Where'd you get that cheap costume? The only Darkwing duplicate that showed up was at the very end of the series, right before it was canceled."
"I know that." The figure smiled, showing off dozens of sharp teeth. "I was there. I had to play both of them."
Darkwing's eyes widened as he realized who was in front of him. "Jim Starling!?"
