I don't see how this is going to be helping us any time sooner. They're just staring at each other hatefully. " Are we going to the store, or-" Huey began to ask. " Quiet." Scrooge told him. " I'm in the middle of a Vision Beast battle of wills." Scrooge told us. " So, it's a staring contest?" Dewey asks.

" It's not just a staring contest! It's a-" Flintheart began to tell us, about to look, but then looked at Scrooge again. He gasps. " Nice try, McDuck, but your family bickering will never get me to look away, never!" Flintheart said with such exaggeration. " It's a staring contest." Dewey states. " Excuse me, this area of the Duckburg Billionaires' Club is only for our elite members, the crĀ me de la crĀ," A worker told us.

We began to leave. " the finest ducks in Duckburg!" He told us. Okay I have no idea what all that was about. We passed a very famous person. Huey gasps," Is that?" " Yup." Mark beaks says. Huey grins. " Ohh! That was Mark Beaks! He's right in there! Oh, man, I'm almost breathing the same air as him." Huey says as he sniffs the air. " Oh, ingenuity." He says.

" Come on, like I couldn't be a young, influential business guy?" Dewey says. Huey laughs then sighs contently. " What? Oh. Oh! You were serious?" Huey asks. " It's just you're more the crazy, irresponsible, fun guy than the serious, brilliant, successful guy." Huey points out. " You don't know! At least I'm not the guy who just reads about people who do stuff guy. I could be a bigger deal than Beaks in three years, tops!" Dewey proclaims. He puts on the helmet from the knight's suit. He makes the display crash.

" I'll pay for that in three years. I'm very sorry." Dewey said sincerely. After that we all kinda did our own thing. Huey went to reading his nerd book, Katie went to watching Dewey, again may I add, Dewey was doing the robot for some weird reason, and I was cursing Erin Hunter for killing off a character I actually liked for once. It actually got pretty intense, because Huey got annoyed and snatched it and started chewing me out for using bad words.

" But it's Rowanstar this time! Not Needletail!" I protested. " You need to stop that." Huey told me. " It's not my fault he's a better leader than Blackstar." I say. " Just stop, please." Huey pleads. " Well, sorry. Some people actually like cats and think that it would be better to be a cat than a duck." I said. " I'm just going to ignore you now." Huey says.

" Fine by me. I was fine till you took my book anyways." I commented. I took out my phone to watch videos. After a few more minutes, Mark Beaks came out. What sort of music is that? He backed up acting all cool. " Keep making that money, y'all! See you in $2 million and counting!" Beaks calls. For once I feel sorry for Flintheart.

When Beaks was out of earshot to them he mumbles, " Stuck up old money-duddies. Don't even have a social media presence." Then he pays attention to his phone. " Mr. Beaks, I'm Dewey, future astronaut president-" Dewey began to say, before Huey interrupted him. " Can you sign this? You're my hero and a genius!" Huey compliments. Beaks practically ignored everything, but the genius part. " Genius?" He questions then turns his attention onto us.

" You two, I like how much you like me! That show real smarts! Come by the offices and I'll hook you up with a tour. Maybe even an after-school job?" He suggests. " And you can bring your friends too if you really want to. Pew pew pew pew pew pew pew! Pew! Pew pew-pew!" Beaks says.

" You mean it?!" Huey asks. " Sure. Why not." Dewey states. " Amazing sauce. I'll text you. Internship starts maana!" Beaks told them as he puts on his shades and puts on his helmet. He gets on his scooter thing and drives away. Huey was freaking out at this point. " He just talked to us." Huey geeked out. " You act as if that's a big deal." I say. " It is. He's very smart." Huey said. " So is Chase. And Douglas. And Max." I commented. " Well, he's different. He's actually successful." Huey says. " What makes you say Chase isn't successful? He's a bionic super human he could outsmart anyone any day. " I say.
