1st Adventure

[Video]

[The screen shows a young girl, with short, white hair and a pink bow. She grins nervously.]

Hey, can anyone hear me on this thing? Am I using this right? Um, hi, I'm Webby! And I kind of need to get a hold of Unc... [she gives pause, as if doubting herself] Mr. Scrooge McDuck? Because I think I got kidnapped and sent to an alternate universe - like there's some lady called "mom" and she pushed me out of her house and now I'm kind of confused where I am right now.

Also... [Webby pauses, scrunching up her face in confusion. It seems like she's noticed something in the reflection of the screen.] Wait, where'd my beak and feathers go?!

[Action - Right outside Newbark Town]

[Normally being whisked away to a mysterious land and strange people would be right up Webby's alley. And it still is, but she's still reeling a little over the confrontation with Magica. Everything that happened just a few minutes ago makes her feel a little drained - and kind of worried. She hasn't seen Huey, Dewey, and Louie around, and they just made up with Scrooge. They were a whole family again. And Webby... really doesn't want to get taken away from that so quickly.

Especially after Lena... 

She shakes her head. An adventure is an adventure, and she's gotta stay positive! She's sure she'll run into the boys sooner or later. After doing a bit of wandering, she hears a rustle in the grass. And sticking its head out of the grass is a tiny white bunny with a bandage on its nose.]

Hi there, I'm Webby! 

[The bunny tries to duck back down into the grass, before Webby waves at it.]

Aww don't be scared! It's okay! You've got a bandage on your nose... did you get hurt?

I am mad! I'm mad you never told us about what was going on - we could've help...!

[Webby is a pretty forgiving person though. Lena fought to protect her, fought to stop Magica. Lena wouldn't do that if she were just following along with Magica's order. That's all the proof Webby needs.]

You're the first best friend I've had. I was so scared for you.

[Wha... helped? How could anything have helped? If she told them, it would've just made things worse! Magica could've taken control of her sooner, or used what little physical influence she had to do something really bad...

This easy sort of forgiveness threw Lena off so easily back during the money shark incident, and she'd just kind of yelled at Webby then. But here she is, in the aftermath of her betrayal, and Webby's still not mad at her?]

If I said anything, Magica could've just... ruined everything! And even before she started getting real dangerous, I was still doing what she said.

[Because she was selfish. She cared so much about her freedom that she went along with manipulating the only person that really cared about her.]

Even... even us meeting was part of the plan.

[video]

[alittleobsessed]

But you saved me. From Magica! That wasn’t part of her life plan, right?

[Webby takes a breath, trying to figure out how to process all of this.]

Lena, I’m not mad. Even if I should be, I’m just glad you’re okay.

[video]

[outofhershadow]

No, but...

[But a few good things don't outweigh the horrible things she did. The horrible things her actions could've led to, if Webby's family hadn't stopped Magica. Sure, she'd started having her doubts as far back as when they'd gone hunting for the terra-firmians... but she didn't stop then. When she could've. She just kept doing what Magica wanted, because she was so darn selfish...

This is all so complicated. This whole... caring about other people thing. Lena can't help but let out a heavy sigh, reaching up to run a hand through her hair.]

Geez, you really like to make things so complicated. It'd be a lot easier if you were mad, y'know...

[video]

[alittleobsessed]

Heh. Well, I did take out a lot of my anger out on Magica. I think I'm kind of wiped up for now.

[Webby can be feisty in a fight, but she's never felt an anger like that before. Not even while getting kidnapped and chased around by the Beagle Boys. It... didn't feel pleasant, to say the least.]

Can we like, y'know... meet up in person?

[video]

[outofhershadow]

[That gets a snort out of Lena.]

Yeah, I saw a bit of that before, I, uh... [Before she jumped out of Magica's shadow and got herself killed.] Before I showed up. That was pretty awesome, Webby.

[Most of her consciousness had been gone when Magica blasted her, so she didn't know what happened after that, but trapped in Magica's shadow, she'd seen enough of Webby throwing herself at her aunt before all that happened.]

... If you want to, yeah. [Lena sure would like to too, but... she's not sure what she'd do, seeing Webby in person. Just talking to her like this was making her jittery...] There's like... transporters in this place. I can jump over to a city real close to where you are now, but you'll still need to hike a bit to get over there.

[alittleobsessed]

Nobody messes with my best friend! We defeated Magica, and brought Scrooge back too.

[She says that, but it didn’t stop Magica from destroying Lena. She was acting out of heartbroken anger, she wasn’t even thinking straight during that whole mess.]

I want to, if you’re okay with it.

[Webby’s a little nervous herself, but she wants to make sure this is actually real.] Hiking doesn’t sound too hard.

[video]

[outofhershadow]

And then you made her run off crying, right?

[She has no doubt that Webby's family totally wiped the floor with her aunt's face, BUT SHE'S JUST GOTTA HEAR HOW IT HAPPENED, OKAY.]

'Course I want to. [It actually makes her kind of nervous, thanks to her guilt hangups, but... she's not just going to say no.] There's no way I'm going to miss out on the kind of trouble you attract like a magnet.

[video]

[alittleobsessed]

I bet she cried afterwards! She was in a hurry to get out of there. Actually... her running away is pretty much the last thing I remember before I, y'know, woke up here.

Scrooge was the one who fought and beat Magica, and uh... I guess Donald's head is what ultimately broke her staff.

[Webby perks up when Lena says yes though.]

Good! Because I'm looking for all the trouble I can get here!

[Y'know, fun trouble and probably not getting arrested trouble.]

[video]

[outofhershadow]

What I wouldn't give to see that...

[Lena may not have the sadistic tendencies that her aunt has, but after the hell Magica put through, she can't help but sound wistful as she imagines her aunt running off, crying like she's made Lena cry so many times in her life and whining like some kid with its toys taken away.

... Okay, so maybe there are some things she inherited from Magica. Like pettiness.]

Heck yeah. There's even crazy old ruins to explore, it's right up your alley. Though... no crazy death traps or anything like that, so it might be boring.
