SCROOGE POV

Aye, these kids'll be the death of me... 

Breaking into my home, hurting each other, killing another one of em!

Now I gotta bury the poor soul...

But I've seen worse. Let's hope we don't get something like an apocalypse. That would get violent.  Or, having the children go to Wonderland. Yikes, that would be hard to fix...

Right when I get upstairs, I'm met with a gray-ish brown haired kid with closed eyes... I wonder who closed them...

I pull him up, and throw him over my shoulder. Should I give him a funeral? Yeah... that's the right thing to do. He must have a family... right? 

I carry him downstairs, and we quietly pass the children. Don't need them watching this.

Sunlight hits my skin, and I breath a sigh. Poor lad...

I grab a shovel and place it it's tip of the grass. 

Am I going to bury him here? No... that's not fair... I'll have to bury him somewhere else.

"QUIT YER BLABBERING!" 

WHAT IN DISMAL DOWNS?!

I run inside and go to my basement. I hear talking! I HEARD GLOMGOLD! 

But now... it's silent. 

Am I losing my mind? Aye, I guess my age has caught up with m-

"Should we ask for his help-?"

"SHUT YER YAPPER! We don't need ANYONE'S help... let alone Scrooge"

Yep. That's GlomGold. I switch the light on and stare at all the people in my basement.

"WHAT ARE YE ALL DOING IN MY BASEMENT?!" I yell.

GlomGold crosses his arms as if he's mad he's been caught. "Not planning yer murder if that's what your asking."

I growl ask, "How did you all even get in here?!"

Wait- Are those S.H.U.S.H agents?! What are they doing in here?! 

"Ye left your door open. Duh." GlomGold answers. 

Oh no...

"Ugh, kids..." I rub my forehead before I explode. "I GIVE EM MY HOME! MY FOOD! MY TIME! MY ADVENTURES! ALL I ASK IS THAT YOU LET ME KEEP MY BATHTUB, AND LOCK THE GODDAMN DOORS! AM I DOING SOMETHING WRONG?! I LET THE KIDS BRING THEIR GIRLFRIENDS! I LET THEM DO EVERYTHING! BUT THEY CAN'T LOCK A DOOR?! NOW I HAVE TO DEAL WITH YOU ALL! I love them , but they can be a real pain in the ass."

I take a deep breath and look at the S.H.U.S.H agents and GlomGold. 

"ALL OF YE! GET OUTTT!!!" I yell, pointing at the door.

A female S.H.U.S.H agent speaks up. "We can't!"

"WHY?!" I yell again. 

"Because one of our agents went rouge! She's on a killing spree!" She answers.

"Wait..." A male voice talks. "Wasn't she the one who had that assassin thing in her?-" 

Wait... Athena?!

"- Our secret weapon?"

The female nods.

No... 

What have we done?

EMMA POV

We walk inside the abandoned house... the house I used to go to every day when we were all younger. Well, I had my own reasons.
