Break the ice (Mighty ducks x reader)

29. Long time no see

Weeks later, they had a new game.

During that time, they had to train harder and longer, since their opponents are also high professionals and one of the best hockey players besides the ducks. That means, that Wild wing and I won't have much time together. Because of that, he would make it up to me with a little vacation elsewhere afterwards. In the meantime I was allowed to do my own stuff. Since I paid off my debt I didn't stay there as a worker anymore. As his girlfriend, I get treated that way. Once in a while I want to help and do the chores...without screwing it up anymore. Mallory finds it a good idea for me to get out and see friends of mine. I was about to tell her that I don't have any in Anaheim, until this person ran into my arms, "N/A!"

It was Buzz.

"Hey, long time no see. How are you?"

The boy was smiling wide, "Great, I saw the news...I can't believe it, you and Wild wing!" Okay, so it is not history for some, I thought. He wanted to take me out of some games in the arcade or to the comic store, anything as long as we go out together. I accepted, "Okay, but I need some burgers first, I am starving. See you later Mallory!"

"You two behave okay?"

The boy turned red in the face, waving at the female duck longer than needed, "...by...Mallory..."

"You got a crush on her?!"

"Of course, she is the best!" Woah, I didn't expect him to be that open, even more, he couldn't shut up about it. At the mall, I got a tiny break from his chatter, as the orders have to be made. Thankfully he got tired of talking; changing the subject to something he works on. Apparently, it was a formula of making some sort of fluid, that even rockets can use, "Less fuel needed and still last longer in space, how cool is that?" when I thought he took a breather, he continued, "And that is not all, another device should be making the live of astronauts easier, by staying in contact with another, even if they are in a different place...who knows, even in a different dimension."

"But no one is there to test it out...the dimensional thing."

"I could ask the ducks"

"No need, they can't get back without the Saurians. They have this special portal to other dimensions." The look in his eyes worried me and his smile just got creepy, "Out of the question!"

"I only want to throw it into the portal and wait till someone answers."

I preferred not to get involved in this business. Wild wing would kill me if I try to get anywhere near the Saurians without the team. Buzz has been in the raptor before, knowing of what it is made off and how it is capable of hiding, "with the right equipment I will track down the ship."

"Listen to me, this is a bad idea. Just give it to the ducks and they will do it when they get close to the portal, okay?"

"They don't need to know about it. We get in and sneak out, as easy as that."

He didn't listen to me. With his burger all gone and drink empty, he pulled on my sleeve to tag along. At his workplace, Buzz was deep in thoughts while pressing all sorts of keys. The program on the screen looked very complicated. For the young boy, it was his second language, "All done. Let check it out." It resembled a Smartphone with a Navi system in one, beeping around. This might take a while to find the raptor with that, I thought, feeling relieved. We might take weeks for that, hoping that this will be the case.

Wild wing and the others had other problems to deal with. Not only did they feel pressure because of the game, but also the fact that they are on earth for a year now and Dragaunus is still not caught. The goalie told me about the portal, but not that it is the only way to get to his planet. While they all discussed the issues in the locker room, was I with Buzz in the headquarters.

I could persuade him to follow me home. I just pretended that I needed more money or that I am cold. Since he had nothing to lend and his size of clothing is too small was this the perfect excuse. Although it won't last long with this one, I pretended to search around Wild wing's bunk, as the boy went towards the massive screen. Overwhelmed and excited, he pressed the first button, followed by several others. Unlike me, he knew what to do. At this point, I made a terrible mistake. He found the raptor a lot quicker that way, "N/A, hurry up!" If only I knew that. Walking beside him around Anaheim, I had hoped not to get anywhere near the Saurians.

"There it is!"

I was slapping myself mentally. Even worse, he managed to get in with ease. Something isn't right here, I could feel it. With caution, I followed Buzz. He won't back off, no matter what I said. The boy was not scared, more excited than anything, "I was here before. The control room is this way." At this point I as wondering: could I just get normal friends that do normal things in their normal days? With the ducks I understand, but they are also careful, with Buzz is it a different story. Even thrash and Mookie aren't normal, shooting slime at me the other day. I couldn't get that stuff of for weeks, stinking like a trashcan. Their excuse: It is against the aliens from outer space, to prevent them to control human minds. Too bad Nosedive was there; saying that in my brain was nothing to get control off. For that he learned how aggressive I can become and never ever, insulted me this bad again.

Buzz got me out of my thoughts, "Hey N/A look we made it"

Unsure I looked around, "And where are the Saurians?"
