Dewey Duck Vs. The Nega Verse Book 2 - Can't take the U out of Universe

Chapter 8 - "Apologize NOW!"

"So, how excatly are we using Webby as bait?" Louie 'original,' asked as they began moving away from the bunker.  Since it's been compromised the 'other,' Louie had said he knew a place where they can go to be safe. Louie walked along side Webby holding her hand. She had tripped several times already, and bushed her forehead in a couple of tree branches along the way causing leaves to nest in her feathers.
Webby may be exceptional when it came to combat fighting, spying, and keeping secrets, but she was utterly and completely lost when it came to trudging through another universe without any clues about where they were.
"Well -." Huey said, he stopped and glanced at the 'other,' Louie.
Of course he had an idea on how it should be done. Without getting anyone else hurt in the process. But he knew that his brother should be the one to take the lead on this one. Webby was, after all, his girlfriend. He should be the one to come up with the rescue mission for her.
He's been quite ever since he found out that Dewey had found Webby.
Huey may have been gone for awhile, but he still knew that look on Louie's face. That determined, not caring about anything else but Webby look.
"It's not going to be that hard, really." The 'other,' Louie said. "Just give herself up like Dewey did and we're good to go."
Huey, the original Louie and Webby stopped short.
The original Louie looked at Webby in alarm as tears started flowing down her face again. Huey angerliy grabbed Louie's arm and pushed him do to the ground.
"Hey!" Louie shouted.
They wrestled for a bit as the original Louie and Webby stared at them.
"Is that really how we look when we fight?" Louie asked her as his double punched Huey in the eye. He looked over at Webby just in time to see her wince.
His heart sank.
She was going through such a hard time with all this, and it was all because of him.
"Okay, break it up you guys." He shouted suddenly. He pulled Huey off his double. Huey squirmed in his arms and bit him making Louie yelp and drop him.
Huey was panting hard and glaring at Louie as he staggered to his feet. Red in the face. Reminding the original Louie of their Uncle Donald.
"Apologize. Now." Huey ordered, glaring at Louie.
"What? Now you decide to act noble when it comes too -." Louie stopped when he saw Huey nod at Webby. He looked and his own heart pounded hard against his chest when he saw the tears. "Aw man." He groaned, realizing a bit too late what he had done.
He slowly started walking towards her, but his double stood in front of her, with his eyes blazing into his. The 'other,' Louie stopped short.
"i suggest you better watch what you say next." He told him firmly.
"I, I'm sorry, Webby." His double said, quickly, ignoring Louie's threat.
Webby peeked out from behind Louie, she was trembling, and her eyes were bloodshot red from crying.
"I'm, I'm just anxious I guess. To be with Webby again. I, I'm a jerk." He said, looking down shamefully.
"Yeah, we are." The 'original,' Louie agreed. He slowly moved aside so that Webby could walk up to his double. She did, but rather slowly.
"I forgive you, Louie." She said, finally.
His double looked up startled that he had been forgiven so eaisly.
Webby gave him a small, watery smile as she looked from him, to her Louie.
"Both of you." She added.
Louie smiled back, he already knew that, but it was nice to hear it again.
"But consider this your second strike." She said turning back to her double.
Both Louie's blinked.
"S,Second strike?" Louie asked. "W,What was the first strike?"
Webby just rolled her eyes at him as his double avoided his eyes. Louie looked back and forth from them, his heart racing against his chest.
"It's nothing, Louie, really." Webby assured him, giving him a quick kiss on the cheek.
Louie frowned.
"Yeah, well, that's not good enough for me." Huey snarled.
Both Louie's and Webby looked over at him.
"Hue, I'm -." The 'other,' Louie began.
Huey held up his hand as Webby took off her backpack and brought out a rag and a bottle of water. She uncapped the bottle and poured water over the rag as she walked up to Huey and put it up to his eye. He let her, as he continued to glare at his brother.
"I may have overstepped my bounderies before more then I'd like to admit." Huey began. Webby bit her bottom bill as she dabbed at his eye. The coolness of the rag felt good against his now stinging eye. He could already feel it swelling up. "But at least I know I'm doing it!" He snarled at him. "At least I pay attention to the one's I've hurt!"
The 'other,' Louie stared at him.
"You have to learn that this world doesn't just revolve around you!" Huey shouted at him.
"Okay, okay." The 'other,' Louie said, holding up his hands in defeat. He knew where Huey was going with this, and he was right for once. He'd been so absorbed in getting Webby back that he hadn't thought about how it was effecting the others around him. "I, I'll do better." He grumbled. Looking away from Huey.
"Yeah, well, we'll see." Huey said, as Webby got done nurturing Huey's wound.
There was silence as they all stood in the middle of the woods, nothing but the sound of birds chirping their morning songs. Webby slowly walked back over to her Louie, put the left over water bottle and rag back in her backpack, and let Louie help put it back on.
"Come on, we better keep moving." The 'other,' Louie said finally. "We're almost there." He told them as he walked roughly passed Huey taking the lead again.
"Where are we going, excatly?" Webby asked, she left her Louie's side and walked along side him, to show that she didn't hold a grudge. Louie didn't answer right away, perhaps he was too afraid to, after what had just happened, or was actually thinking before he spoke.
"T,There's a place up ahead. I know a guy who might be willing to help us out." He told her finally as Huey and the 'original,' Louie hung back a ways from them as they walked, but not taking their eyes off them, each for a different reason.
"Might being the key word, right?" Webby asked.
Louie nodded.
"He doesn't do anything unless there's something in it for him." Louie told her.
The walked for about a few more hundred yards and the stinch reached their noses before they even saw the filth.
"Oh." Webby said, her eyes widen as Louie came up beside her then his mouth dropped open. Webby chuckled and gently put her hand under his jaw and tried closing his mouth, but he kept dropping it back down. So she finally gave up.
"The Beagle Boys junkyard?" He asked, looking at his double in disbelief.
His double looked back at him.
"They aren't that bad once you get to know them." He told him as they continued to walk into the junkyard. "Though, I must warn you, they don't trust the McDucks, and they most certainly don't trust us." He said looking from Huey then back to them.
"Why?" Webby asked. "I mean, Huey, sure I can see that, but you? Aren't you like, the soul defender of this realm and all?" She asked.
"They," Louie paused as they stopped in front of a beat up old looking trailer. "think we're bringing down your world so that we can live sort of on top of it, for once." He said, not looking at her. She and Louie stared at him. "Y,You know, because since it's resting on top of this world, and this world is crumbling underneath us..."
"Well, are you?" Louie demanded to know, crossing his arms at and glaring at his double.
"Yeah. Are You?" Said a scruffy voice from the shadow.
They all looked and both Louie and Webby's mouth opened this time at who spoken. Ma Beagle stood in front of them, arms crossed, eyes gleaming at the other Huey and Louie, and she was dressed in a combat uniform instead of her usual casual trailer trash outfit. She didn't hold a purse but held instead she had one of those laser guns pointed at the other Huey and Louie. Webby and Louie looked at each other.
"S,Some of us feel that way." Louie said, quickly. Huey slowly moved his hand back to where he still had the gun. Ma Beagle's eyes darted from Louie to him.
"Don't." She snarled. "It will be the biggest mistake you've ever made."
Huey froze. Not taking his eyes off Ma Beagle's face.
"But not us." Louie finished, firmly. "W,We need to use your junkyard as new base." He continued. "So that we can save their Dewey," He said jerking his thumb to Louie and Webby, "find our Webby, and stop all this from happening." He told her.
Ma Beagle craned her neck to look at him.
They stared at each other for a long time before Ma Beagle snickered.
"Forgive me if I don't take the word of the great Llewellyn Duck." She said. "It's going to take a lot more then that to convince me."
"What will convince you?" Webby asked, speaking to this Ma Beagle for the first time.
Ma Beagle looked at her and a smile slowly spread across her face sending a chill up the childrens spines.
