You Were Never Meant to be a Hero (Quackbur Superhero AU)

Chapter 13: The Notes

Tommy's instincts were going haywire with Wilbur being gone from the tower.

It had been nearly a week, which, to be fair, was shorter in comparison from when Wilbur disappeared the last time. But the last time he had fucking disappeared for a long period of time like this, he had been heavily fucking wounded and went into an emergency molt. Which wasn't fucking good! Wilbur hated molting and had to do it while he was away from Tommy! Which means someone else probably touched his brother's fucking wings and he knows how Wilbur is with his wings!

And then when he didn't come home one night a few days later, WHOOPTY FUCKING DOO, his brother was kidnaped by a fucking villain! And of course that villain just so happened to be his brother's nemesis, Ace. Who Tommy is eighty five percent certain is who picked Wilbur up when Pyro burned his wing (just thinking about it made Tommy's wings twitch uncomfortably) and seventy percent sure is probably a fucking simp for the eldest brother.

And the worst part is?

His dad and other older brother aren't even fucking bothered.

They had tried to stop Wilbur from leaving, but once Phil lost him both had seemingly shrugged and said 'he'll come back eventually'.

Tommy was pretty damn certain that they should probably be freaking out! But no, he seemed to be the only one!

He was so worried about his brother. I mean, don't get him wrong. He trusts that his older brother can handle himself. Wilbur is a big man with many talents after all. What he's worried about is the magpie avian's fucking nemesis. It's just frustrating not knowing.

This was why Tommy was currently pacing in front of the kitchen table while Techno and Phil were eating. His father looked to be getting irritated, but Tommy couldn't give a shit. He was a big man, and Phil could suck it for all he cares.

"So father, any word from Mr. President since the bridge incident?" Techno questioned, turning to look at their father.

"Nothing yet mate," Phil responded. "The villains have been really quiet this week."

"True," the younger twin hummed. "I haven't heard from Smile either. It's suspicious. There hasn't been any Ace activity either. You heard anything from Captain?"

The crow avian shook his head, "She hasn't seen anything. Before you ask, neither has George. The Badlands Agency reported some vigilante activity, but nothing big from any major villains."

"There's been a string of robberies that the police have been investigating," Techno hummed. "I've heard rumors it's connected to those casinos on the other side of town."

"I doubt that one," Phil commented with a shrug.

Tommy couldn't take it anymore.

"What is wrong with you two!?" He shouted, whirling around to face them as his wings puffed out. "How are you acting so fucking casual!?"

"Tommy," the crow avian said, voice low. "Language. And no shouting at the table."

"I'm not sitting at your fucking table so I'll do whatever the fuck I want right now!" Tommy hissed back. "Wilbur has been missing for nearly a week! How are you two so unbothered!?"

Techno quickly dropped his gaze, but Phil didn't back down, "He's fine, Tommy. He'll get over it and come back eventually."

The raven avian crossed his arms, "What if Ace jumped him while he was out?"

That got the others to tense up for a minute. Multiple different expressions crossed Phil's face before his gaze became worried.

"You two are shit fucking family," Tommy hissed, turning around and starting to walk away. "I'm going to check Wil's room to see if there's anything in there that might tell me where he went."
