Duke's Sorrow
By: Shannon Yenne
Part 2
Same old boy, same sweet girl five years down the road, there's gonna be a little one and says
it's time to go.  Doctor says "The baby's fine but you'll have to leave, cause his momma's
fading fast" and Johnny hit his knees and there he prayed.


As he carried her in through the front doors of the pond all the kids came running.
Eric in the lead. "Dad what happened?" "She's........gone Eric." Duke said as he set her
body down on a gurney in the infirmary and covered her with a sheet. Eric signed to his father
"What do you mean gone?" Duke sighed and signed back to his deaf son. "She's dead."
" How? What caused her to die?" "The migrator crashed in battle and she was killed."
" How did it crash?" "A blast from the saurian ship caused the migrator to lose control."
Eric looked at the covered body and then back at his father and began to cry. He hugged his
father and said " It's not fair!" Duke took Eric's head in his hands and said slowly so that he
could read his beak. "Always remember she loved you ok she will always be with you as long
as you keep her in your heart." Then he took him in a hug. They were joined by Ali and
L:ucheea. "Daddy what wrong with mama?" Lucheea who didn't understand the hole thing
because she was only 10. "Mommy's sleeping sweet heart."


"Take the very breath you gave me,
take the heart from my chest, I'll gladly take her place if you'll let me, make this my last
request.  Take me out of this world, but God please don't take the girl."

  The week after that they held her funeral. It was the game that they would play for the Stanley
cup. They decided to carry the casket out on the ice 10 minutes before the game was to start.
The kids would fallow them out and they would hold a minute of silence to remember while the
song " Kiss from a rose" playing over the com system witch was Dicers favorite song. Once they reached the center of the rink the team captain/ Wildwing laid her jersey over the top of
her casket. After the song was over they carried her off the ice. She was to be buried after the
game.

 
Johnny's daddy was taking him fishing, when he was eight years old.




"Wildwing!! Wake up !" Nosedive screamed in his sleeping brothers ear.
" What!! Hu?" Wildwing sat up and looked around he had fallen asleep on the couch.
"It's your turn to watch Drake 1's monitors!" Nosedive said while walking over and sitting down on the couch next to his big brother.
"Oh ok thanks Dive!" Wing got up and went to the ready room and sat at his post. Just
as he sat down at his post the alarm sounded. "Dragonus is attacking the city come on we
gotta move it NOW!" Wild wing and the other adult ducks headed for the garage. Just
   before boarding the migrator when Wing stopped them. "Let's take the Arrow win instead."
"Why?" Tanya asked curiously. "Because I have a bad feeling about this."
She smiled up at him suspiciously. �Who was your premonition about this time?"
"Well I don't know if it was a premonition but it was about us going to stop Dragonus only we
took the migrator and he caused us to wreck and Sikana was killed." Duke who had been  listening said in shock. "Sweet heart maybe you should stay here!'
"Oh please don't tell me you believe in �dreams'"
  "Me yeah right but um last time he had a dream like that it told him that drake one was going
to blow up and kill Tanya. He woke up and got her out of the room second before it blew."
She sighed "Good point. Ok go with out me but be careful k!"

They left and scared Dragonus away from the city and made Anaheim safe for another day.
