Omniscient narrator:

Night had already fallen, everything was silent in the mansion. Donald had stayed on the ship, in fact, he had not left there since he found out about the loss of the middle triplet. No one had left them rooms, the family was now devastated.Beakley had to do something, she felt the same as the others, after all the others considered her part of the family and she was also fond of that stubborn and sassy triplet, she was not going to see the others separated while it lasted so long. . time. It had already happened years ago.

So he decided to try to do the normal routine, he knew it would be painful for the others to be with his family remembering that one of them is missing, but he would make them talk and eventually they would get over it. Of course, this would not turn out as expected.Beakley prepared dinner and served it on the table. Everyone went down to the dining room but none of them spoke to each other.Two long minutes passed, the only sound that could be heard was that of the cutlery colliding with the Chinese porcelain plates trying to put a piece of food in the mouth.The silence couldn't even be considered uncomfortable, it was painful.

Those few minutes where the family was eating dinner didn't last long, Scrooge quickly got up from the table, everyone turned to look at him.

- Uncle..? - Huey asked about his unexpected action.

- .. Don't bother me.. I'm in my room. - and without further ado he left the dining room, leaving his family.

Scrooge went up the stairs to his room, he did not make a single sound, but his eyes expressed sadness. He had lost another loved one because of him.He sat on the edge of his bed and stood there staring into space as he remembered the moment he lost his nephew for not telling him or his brothers the truth.

----------------------------------------------------------

- Dewey, our family is amazing! We're enough. Let it go! - Huey said worried about the woky toky.

Dewey didn't pay attention to him, he threw the device away so he couldn't hear his brother anymore.

Dewey kept getting closer to where the piece of paper was and this caused the cargo plane to sway, causing Dewey and Scrooge to slip and the aforementioned almost falling.

Scrooge tried to approach his nephew in blue and held out his hand to hold him so he could return to the interior of the plane.

- Please I... I can't keep you safe, all right? - The old adult admitted - How can I get you to listen to me? - He yelled at the little boy who was trying to reach for the paper.

Dewey turned to look at him and grabbed the paper with both hands, opening it and starting to look at it as his eyes crystalized.

- Tell me about the Spear of Selene! - He shouted showing the paper to his uncle.

Scrooge looked at him for a moment, understanding what he meant, and attended with tears in his eyes as a sign that he was determined to tell him the whole truth.The minor finally decided to reach out to grab his uncle, but this caused him to lose his balance and fall from the plane.

-Dewey!! - Scrooge watched him fall as his nephew disappeared from sight.

----------------------------------------------------------

Scrooge began to cry, every time he remembered that recent event it made it worse and worse, he felt very guilty for not being able to save him.

-If it weren't for me, he would still be here... - he said in an almost inaudible whisper.

He got up from where he was sitting and decided to get ready for bed, maybe then he could get rid of the guilt.

Dinner had been a failure, no one had spoken and everything was silent. It would take a while for everyone to get over Dewey's death.

The now twins headed to their room to get ready for bed but when they arrived Huey couldn't take it anymore and fell to his knees as tears began to come out of his eyes.Louie was surprised at first by the sudden action, but he quickly realized why and didn't hesitate to hug his older brother, who was also devastated but had been strong all day.

- It's our fault, right? .. - Huey said between sobs - .. Is it our fault he's gone? .. -Louie looked at him surprised but then hugged him tighter and said in a whisper.

- It's not... It's not anyone's fault, okay? - he said and also started to sob. They lasted like this for a few minutes, until Huey got tired and they both decided it would be better to sleep.

They both wished this whole day had been a nightmare.
