It was a silent night at Calistola.

FOWL has finally fallen, that's what all new stations, radios, magazines and even apps had said.

Enormous rejoicing sounded all over the world. The citizens of Calistola welcomed Team McDuck back as the true heroes they are, the press has been hassling them non stop, and the whole world joined in the celebration of the fall of the largest terrorist organisation in the world.

But right now, it seemed that all of Calistola is asleep. Families put out floating lanterns in the sky to commemorate the heroes who died fighting FOWL. Lovers huddled up to each other in their beds, getting comfort from each other. The street lights are dim, and the only things that roared down the street that night are a couple of late night trucks doing their late night shipping duty.

In McDuck Manor, Scrooge and Goldie huddled up to each other in their bed, snoring to each other with peace and content. The triplets and Webby huddled with each other in big blankets as they look at the starry night sky and the floating lanterns. Mrs Beakley is looking at the full moon from her bedroom, reminiscing the wild day it has been. And from Della's room, the sounds of her playing Clair de Lune on the violin filled the air.

Down at the street where Daisy lives, Donald and Daisy, having signed up adoption papers for the former FOWL clones, May and June, have put the two sleepy girls to bed. They have all the time in the world to discuss with them about applying to SCC, all the family arrangements, and all that. However, it's getting late, and the trial against FOWL criminals is tomorrow on Saturday, so they have time.

Donald and Daisy changed into their pyjamas, when a facetime call sounded from Daisy's laptop. As soon as Donald and Daisy answered the call from the Quack Quack Motherfuckers Group Chat, all of their friends' faces.  appeared.

Esmeralda's hand was bandaged carefully by Panchito, Jose and Rosinha looked completely knackered. The rest are either worn out, traumatized or exhausted. The only one thing different with Fenton's screen, is that currently Gandra is beside him. From the looks of it, Daisy correctly assumed Gandra has moved in with Fenton.

' Hey, guys.....' Donald yawned. ' Long day, huh? '

All the others could do is nod.

' Lemme get this straight, Crackshell  ' Gyro huffed ' So the whole time, you and Gandra staged this whole breakup just so you 2 can create this simulation video game?'

Fenton could only nod sheepishly as the others turned to look at him.

' I know it may sound strange  ' Fenton sighed. ' But Gandra and I have been dealing with that project FOR WEEKS. Actually, Gandra have been wanting quit FOWL since we started dating!'

' Good thing you changed sides, ' Esmeralda sighed. ' So! Tell me, Senorita Gandra. Why were you manipulated to join the world's most dangerous terrorist group in the first place?'

To tell them that she had a rough home life growing up and that she was manipulated by Bradford ( she shuddered at that thought ) was pure torture for her. All she can do, was to cry in Fenton's arms.

At once, Esmeralda and Panchito felt terrible. Only people with good hearts deep down can cry like this when they make a gross mistake. Fenton decides to speak up, ' Long story short, she came from a....very shitty family. And then she got manipulated into this whole.....mess. '

Della gasped. Drake and Launchpad's jaw dropped. Gladstone choked on his tea. Fethry shuddered. Everyone else had expressions of shock and sympathy.

' Lo siento, ' Gandra began in the Peruvian Spanish she hasn't spoken long ago ' I should NEVER EVER have joined them, that almost tore me and Fenton apart. Oh, por que eres yo es estupido.....'

' And....' Rosinha began ' We are all sorry too, for jumping into conclusions, thinking you are a bad seed - '

' While you are a good person who has been through way too much. ' Della smiled gently.

' Yeah!' Fethry exclaimed ' Ya know, it's really brave of you to leave those toxic bullshit, no good roaches. '

' And at least you dont even have to be thrown into lifetime jail or garotted LIKE THEM. ' Gladstone sighed.

Fenton and Gandra sobbed a little, and thanked them all in Spanish.

' So, you going on to this sailing trip for like a week?' Drake asked.

Donald laughed a little, and Daisy smiled, both ducks starting to feel better.

' Oh, we're just gonna cruise around the  American Mediterranean Sea, ' Daisy giggled, flattered Thar her friends are so concerned for her and Donald ' Kinda like a cruise trip - '

' But cheaper!' Donald giggled and everyone on the facetime laughed a little, their tensions eased.

' When are ya going on this trip?' Launchpad asked.

' Oh, around in early April, ' Daisy smiled. ' Before we plan our fashion business. '

' OH. MY. FUCKING. GOD. ' Della gasped.

' You are finally creating your own brand?' Fenton exclaimed.

Donald and Daisy nodded, and everyone in the facetime call cheered.

' Hey, I havent heard what happened to those not on the Alexandra Library crazy mission!' Della exclaimed. ' So, Jose, Panch, Esme, Rosie, Indigo, Tyrian, Daisy! How did you guys defend Duckburg from those roaches?'

Panchito, Jose, Esmeralda, Rosinha, Indigo, Daisy and Tyrian started narrating their mission of defending Calistola against FOWL roaches alongside with millions of agents and civilians to their enraptured friends.
