✯◝ EPISODE I. | ADVENTURE BEFORE CAPTIVE. ◜✯
The family were at the dock, preparing to bid farewell to Donald and the girls. Just as Donald says, he's going on his own adventure with Daisy, including the twins, May and June.
"Ok. You're all set…" Della dust her hands off before turning to her twin brother. "But, are you sure you want to go out on your own?"
"Are you suuuuuuuuuurrrrrrrrreeeeeee?"
"I'm just gonna miss you, bro!" Della sulked, embracing her twin brother. "Call me anytime, please!"
"I will." Donald smiled, hugging his twin back. "It's time for our own adventure. I can call you and the others anytime. Just don't worry about me."
"Della!" The sailor glared before being tackled in a hug by the triplets.
"We're gonna miss you, Uncle Donald!" Huey sniffled.
"Even if you're boring, you're still the best uncle that I ever had!" Dewey wailed.
"I'm...definitely…*sniff* gonna miss you…" Louie sniffled.
"I'm gonna miss you guys." Webby smiled while wiping away the tears. "You guys are the best sisters I've ever had."
"We'll miss you guys even after you tried to eliminate us all." Aelius (oc by @phoofoz ) shrugged, earning a hit in the back of her head by Aster.
"Ignore the second part." Aster deadpanned. "Have fun out in the sea."
May and June sniffles before embracing the McDuck siblings, "We're gonna miss you guys too…"
May and June let go of the siblings and rushed over to hug Octavius, catching him by surprise. Octavius chuckled, "Whoa. Careful where you're hugging. My back isn't in great condition."
"Sorry, Uncle Octa. We just gonna miss being with you." May frowned.
"Even after what happened with FOWL, you still forgave us after what we did to you and your family." June spoke.
"It's all in the past. Don't worry. You girls have a new family that can love you and watch over you." Octavius smiled, embracing the girls. "Just don't cause too much trouble to your uncle, ok?"
"Take care of yourself." Scrooge told Donald as Octavius approached them, "It's kinda nice to have you going out on your own."
"Or maybe it's nice that you didn't go through so much trauma on the sea. Try not to get your boat sink in the storm or else you'll drown— Ow." Octavius flinched when Scrooge hit him in the head with his cane.
"This isn't the time to traumatize him." Scrooge scolded.
"I'm just saying what I'm saying…" Octavius huffed, ruffling his feathering hair.
Scrooge noticed a frown on Donald's face and ruffled his nephew's head with a chuckle, "Don't worry. He was joking, but we'll see each other again. Just stop ya crying and be a man of the sea."
"You're the storm. You can handle a storm." Octavius winked.
Donald chuckled and hugged the elderly couple, "I really gonna miss ya old toots."
"We're gonna miss ya too, ya little brat." Scrooge grinned.
"Hey, take care of my brother." Della told Daisy before approaching the woman into a hug.
"I will— oof!" Daisy gasped when Della squeezed her neck tightly. "You're...choking me…"
"I'm serious. Take care of my brother or else...." Della threatened.
"O-ok." Daisy strained as her face slowly turned blue. Della let go of Daisy and gave her a sweet, gently smiled, "Good. Have fun on your little adventure."
"Well, it's time to set sail..." Donald waved, making way for his girlfriend and girls to get on the boat before letting himself on. Donald's family saluted him. He saluted his family alongside the girls with a tearful smile as he set sail in the sea. The family watched as the boat sailed away into the sea until it disappeared in the sunset.
"I'm gonna miss him…" Louie frowned.
"Don't worry, lad. He's the man of the storm. He can handle a single problem." Scrooge smiled, ruffled Louie's hair.
Donald was tied up in the middle of the room with crimson light around. He was brutally beaten up by the person who kidnapped him and the girls. Stepping off the dark and into the light, is a general, who for one had kidnapped the Ducks.
"That's enough beating for now." The general smirked, cleaning his bloody fist with a napkin before placing it in his pocket. “Hello, Donald…I am Beelzebub. Pleasure to meet you.”
"...The…" Donald huffed between breathing, "...girls…."
"Don't worry, Donald. I'll let the girls go…" Beezlebub chuckled darkly.
"But, I need you to tell me about your Uncle Scrooge…"
