moneymatters: (Surprised)
[personal profile] moneymatters
It was another day at McDuck Manor. Although it seemed Scroove spent nearly as much time in the parallel world helping his twin continue on after what'd happened, he had his life here that needed him just as much, if not moreso. The twins he was on his way returning to were the strongest argument for that. Today was his day to take care of them, and right now he was heading back down the hallway from the kitchen, carrying a couple prepared bottles for them in a satchel (which still let him use his walking crutch; his knee was better, but by no means perfect yet).

Strange noises had him hurrying a bit quicker, however. It sounded like crying, any parent's worst fear. But the closer he got, the less it sounded like one of the kids, and his panic changed to confusion-

Then he got to the door and stared, wide-eyed, at just what he saw in that bedroom.
moneymatters: (This can't end well.)

It had been too long since he'd heard anything from his counterpart in the other world. Not since that trip over to sock him in the face, gripped in the pain of his family having left.

"'Family doesn't abandon family', eh?! 'They won't leave you again; you just have to try'! Maybe that worked for you, but me? They're gone again!"

His words, shouted in anger, still echoed around in Scrooge's mind. He had to know more... and he had to make up for his own actions in that whole incident. The very moment he could walk by himself again, he snatched the transporter off the shelf and made for his twin's world.

He just wasn't expecting it to be so... dark. The mansion was in ruins, and poking through it, and the half-burnt shell it'd become, gave him no answers. Extremely worried and a little frightened now, he went as quickly as he could to the Money Bin, finding it a shadow of its former self as well. He stood on the bridge for several long, LONG moments, staring up at it in shock and a horrible sort of awe.

What had happened here?

Limping onward, he made for what remained of the money tank portion, hoping against hope he'd find his twin there. Please, please let him find him SOMEWHERE...
