Destiny - A Ducktales Fanfic

20. Paros problems.

Della stomped on to the shore with a scowl on her face, followed by the rest of Clan McDuck. She scanned the crowds, hoping to see Louie and bring him home. The rest of the family helped the drenched Webby on to the shore.

"I wasn't fast enough." - She said quietly, wrapping the towel that Donald handed her, around her.

"It's ok." - He reassured, placing a hand on her shoulder.

"HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT!" - Della screamed, drawing the attention of many bystanders. - "LOUIE JUST RAN AWAY AGAIN! AND YOU'RE SAYING IT'S OK?"

"Louie's a smart kid, he'll be okay."

"HOW DO YOU KNOW? YOU BARELY COME AROUND!" 

That seemed to strike a nerve. - "How do I know? I WAS THE ONE WHO RAISED THEM, I'VE KNOWN LOUIE LONGER THAN YOU. I WATCHED HIM GROW UP, WHILE YOU WERE ON THE MOON." - He hissed, speaking at a volume that resembled more of whisper-shouting than actual shouting.

Della scoffed at her twin brother and stomped off, she stood off by herself sulking until she decided her next move, she pulled her cellphone from her aviator's jacket pocket and dialled Agent Bernard's number.

"Hel-" 

"LOUIE'S RAN AWAY!" - She all but screamed into the phone, dropping her angry facade, and revealing a more nervous demeanour.

"WHAT!" - Bernard shouted. - "HOW?"

"We were on a plane, and he says he needs to stretch his legs, so he gets up and moves to the back of the plane and then suddenly there's an open door and he's gone."

"Well shouldn't have the ankle-monitor have tazed him into oblivion."

"HE SLIPPED HIS ANKLE-MONITOR!"

"That's impossible"

"WELL HE DID IT!" - Della screamed into the phone. Bernard just muttered something under hr breath. - "We went after him, but he manged to get to sure before us and disappeared into the crowds." - Della said, checking to see if she could see him.

A moment of silence.

"Bernard?"

No response.

"Bernard, you still there?"

"Yeah... Yeah sure."

Della ignored the weird silent thing that had just happened and continued. - "Like I was saying, we went after him." - She patted the shivering Webby on the shoulder. - "But he managed to get to shore before us."

"Where are you?" - Bernard asks, but she hesitated to answer, wondering if she would keep her promise on putting Louie in some foreign prison where she would never see him again. - "Paros... Paros, Greece."

"I'll be there as soon as I can." - Bernard hung up the phone.

The group stood in silence, not knowing what to do next. 

CRASH!!!!

The sound echoed across the town,  and before they could realise why, Clan McDuck was running to the origin of the sound, which appeared to be a dock just down the street.

On arrival, the scene was Louie standing over two unconscious guys and a third he'd seemingly shoved into a group of barrels.

"You never were the brightest bulb were you toothy?"

"LOUIE!" - Della screamed before someone else could speak.

Louie seemed to freeze, but quickly recovered and instead of coming back to them like Della wanted, Louie sprinted off to the end of the dock, and dived off. The group watched as Louie swam a decent distant away before stealing a Jet-ski and driving away.

"Uh... What just happened?" - Gold-Tooth said, as two of his thugs pulled him up. 

"Gold happened Boss."

"Gold?" - He snarled. - "500,000 to who ever bring's me Gold's head on a pike!" - He screamed.

The entire dock sprang into action, boats that looked like they hadn't been touched in years revved their engines and chased after the teenage con artist.

Scrooge leapt on to the nearest boat, which was a small fishing boat, and with one swing off his cane knocked the 4 people that made up the crew, into the water.

"Come on!" - The old scotsman yelled, his family followed his instruction and crowded on to the small ship, and took after their youngest.

 Thanks for reading Ch.20 of 'Destiny!', I'm sorry for the late update, school restarted and I've already been swamped in History Essays and Geography tests. Get ready for a high-speed adrenaline packed boat chase in the next chapter, anyway I hope you comment, vote, follow me and read Ch.21 -MM
