Webby glanced back when just when she saw Luis grab Dewey by his head and started dragging him towards the woods. It took all her will power to turn back around and save him from Luis, but she knew that if she did, she'd put herself in danger as well.

She knew by the way Luis could handle a crossbow she wouldn't stand a chance against him with just her sheer fists and combat skills. She needed help, and for that she needed...

Webby took out her cell phone and dialed Huey's number.

"Huey." Webby said, into her phone as it picked up on the second ring. "Where are you?" She asked, breathlessly.

"I'm in the middle of something, Webby. Can't it wa -." Huey began.

"I know about Luis." Webby interrupted.

Silence.

"Where are you?" He asked, finally.

Webby stopped and looked around. She had somehow made it to the city part of Duckburg. She spotted Funzo's not far from where she was standing.

"I, I'm near Funzo's." Webby answered, her voice wavering.

"Stay there. I'm on my way." Huey said.

"Hurry, Huey." Webby pleaded, before she heard the dial tone.

Huey got off the phone and stared at it for a long time.

Webby knew about Luis.

How?

What happened since he left that morning?

By the way Webby sounded, something bad. Huey looked over at Doofus and Boyd.

"I, I gotta go." He said, getting up from Doofus's long kitchen table.

Huey had been in the middle of filling Boyd and Doofus in on his plan to get back at Luis over lunch which including a suckling pig, mash potatoes, and some sort of fancy gravy that was pulled along on a small toy train around the table, and that was just lunch! Huey had barely touched his food when his phone rang.

"So soon?" Doofus asked, "You'll be missing dessert." He said, and rang the tiny bell near him. His bulter slash Dad came out with some fancy chocolate in a sterling glass along with sparklers that stood in the middle of the chocolate.

Huey stared at it.

"S,Sorry guys." Huey stammered as Doofus's Dad started handing out the dessert. "Family emergency." He quickly walked towards the door.

"What about the plan?" Boyd called out to him.

Huey paused at the door and looked back at them.

"Hold off on it for now until I give the okay." Huey told him. He glanced over at Doofus who smirked back at him. "I mean it, Doofus." Huey snarled at him then left the mansion without another word.

He found Webby standing by the entrance of Funzo's. He ran up to her but slowly slowed up when he saw that she had tears in her eyes.

"Webby, what hap -." Huey began, but he didn't get to finish because Webby rush at him and wrapped her arms around him and hugged him tightly.

"D,Dewey." She stammered as she sobbed into his shoulder.

Huey's heart sank.

She didn't have to say anything more. Huey knew. Luis had Dewey.

"Okay, It's all going to be okay." Huey said, softly as he soothed her by rubbing her back.  Webby pulled back suddenly and pushed him roughly back, her eyes narrowed at him.
