*Louis' pov*
"Louis! Come on! Get up! We've gotta leave soon!" I hear, what I think is Dewey, yell as I slowly start to wake up. 'What time is it?' I think as I roll over and look at my phone. It takes me a few seconds to get use to the brightness, even though it's as low as I can get it, but when I finally do I'm not happy. '5:45 am! It's not even 6 am yet! And I don't normally get up until 6:30 am!' I think as I slowly, and regretting, get up and get ready. I already have a small suitcase packed but there's a few things I want to keep with me so I have my small green backpack. I had it on when I was brought here, but I just said Goldie gave it to me. Speaking of I'll get to see her probably shortly after we get there, so that'll be nice. I put on my dark gray hoodie over my black shirt, I added some inside pockets that are easily reachable from my outside hoodie pocket. I left out a part of the story last week, and since Scrooge didn't mention anything I'm pretty sure he doesn't know, but Alex was a heister. His daughter was actually killed in his last heist, suppose you should 'steal' from a murderer, but he supposedly has all the treasure hidden near the stone. So even if I have to stay with the others Goldie can still get it for me. Plus since I can leave the manner, just not town, I can still make trades and sell stuff. And whatever we can't sell and don't wanna keep I can sell at the pawn shop, so It'll all work out. Also from what I've heard the others are doing a good job at making it look like I'm still out heisting, so that should get me out of here sooner. I pick up my pocket knife and slip it into my pocket, just in case I need it. I've also got a hunting knife in my bag, I have the feeling we're going to crash no matter who's flying. I've got a few other things, water and some snacks in case anything happens. I also have that book I found, so all in all I'm pretty much ready for anything. My thoughts are interrupted by a knock on my door, followed closely behind Huey asking if he could talk to me for a second. I open the door to see him holding a letter, he smiles at me before speaking. "Hey Louis, there's a letter for you." He says, holding out the letter for me to take. This could be from several people, I'm just hoping none of the several enemies I've made have found me yet. "Oh and you should probably hurry we'll be leaveing soon. You can sleep on the way there if you want." He says, giving me a small half smile. "Ya sure, just wake me up before we crash." I respond, rolling my eyes. Huey laughs slightly as he leaves me to finish getting ready. I close my door and walk over to my desk, setting the letter down and picking up the chain that has my ring on it. Just to be safe, and to keep others from possible recognizing it, I have it on a thin necklace chain. I tuck the ring in between my shirt and hoodie as I pick the letter back up. 'Mr. K' was the name written on the front. 'Well I definitely don't remember pissing off anyone that went by Mr. K but maybe I did.' I think as I open the letter to see a folded note inside.

'Louis O'gilt, I do hope this letter finds you in good health. As I understand you're currently at Mc Duck manner, agants your will. If you have any friend or alleys that could help you escape I will be more than willing to get them the resources needed. In return I will need your help finding something, but we can talk about that when we can meet face to face. My understanding is that you're going to McGuffin island, so I'll have someone there to meet you. If you could please have a way to contact your alleys ready that would be most helpful. One of my assistants will be meeting you, her name is Ava, she'll explain more but for now good luck.- Mr.K'

'Well that's interesting.' I think as I put the note in a small pocket in my backpack. I'd almost say it's impressive but it's not that hard to hack into 'my' phone and I told Goldie exactly where we're going, plus someone's definitely been watching me. But honestly I'll take whatever help I can get. But I do wander if maybe he had something to do with the book, definitely seems to have the resources to get the book into the manner. I grab my backpack and my phone and head downstairs, double checking I have my headphones. 'This should be fun.' I think as I reach the foyer where the others are waiting. Scrooge is helping Dewey with who knows what, Della and Huey seem completely distracted, and Webby, Violet and Lena are all talking. 'Right.... Almost forgot Lena was coming with.' I thought as I stand a little behind the group. Launchpad and Duckworth come back into the manner, probably from putting the stuff in the plane. Scrooge clears his throat to get everyone's attention, which seems to have worked. "So, this trip is about 6 hours, for the first 5 Della and Dewey will be flying." Scrooge starts, looking over at a clearly excited Dewey. 'This isn't going to end well.' I think as I shove my hands in my pocket and mess with the side of my phone case. "Launchpad will fly the rest of the way while the rest of us plan out more of what we'll do when we land." Della finishes Scrooge's thought, smileing at us. 'Oh this will definitely be a fucking disaster.' I think as I catch a death glare from Lena. 'It's to early for this shit.' I think as I give her a death glare in return. Once we're on the plane I sit in the seat closest to the back left, most of the others take the seats on the right side. Scrooge sits closest to the front on the left. Unfortunately Della seems curtain Launchpad and Dewey can fly and decides to walk towards me. 'Nope, nope, nope!' I think as I quickly put my headphones in and barry my face in my arms. As my music starts playing my thoughts start to wonder. I've literally only been at the manner for about 2 weeks and we're already on an 'adventure'! A lot has happened in 2 weeks and I don't appreciate it at all! One good thing though is that I've managed to figure out that Della, Scrooge and Mrs. Beakley have the key card for this stupid ankle monitor. And it doesn't help both Lena and Mrs. Beakley are keeping a close eye on me. 'Guess I'll just have to be careful....' I think, shoving my face further in the crock of my arm. 'At least I'll get to see mom soon..... And hopefully find a way to get out of here.'
