DIZ’S ORIGIN STORY (written by @DisneyNerd26) Part 6: You Are Home. (Music: Wake Me Up - Avicii) (While the kids were at the party…) “We need to talk about Diz.” Scrooge sighed as the family sat around their living room. He rose to his feet, and began pacing in front of the TV as the room fell quiet for him to speak. “Huey and I had a discussion while Diz was still unconscious. She is unable to return home…” He let his words sink in. “It would take billions, and decades, to rebuild the Solego’s Circuit. She is stranded here.” “So what do we do?” Della murmured, eyeing her uncle. “Lass, I believe there’s only one thing we can do.” Scrooge’s bill turned up in a soft smile… It was nearly 11 that night before Lena’s party began to wind down, Lena’s friends and family saying goodbye one by one before going out to their cars. Soon, it was just triplets, Webby, and Diz standing in the room with Lena, Violet, and Mr Saberwing. "Do you need us to stick around to help clean up?" Louie asked quietly, gesturing to the mess around them, and receiving a sharp elbow to the ribs by Dewey. "Don’t worry about it, Lou. My magic has it covered.” Lena replied with a wink, a soft blue aura forming around her hands. "You sure?" Louie asked quietly and Lena nodded, reaching down to catch his hand in hers and giving it a tight squeeze. "Absolutely. But thank you.” A loud crashing sound came from outside before anyone could say another word. “And that’d be our ride. Goodnight Lena. Happy birthday!” Webby laughed, giving her best friend a hug before backing up so the others could chime their goodbyes too. Lena hugged Louie last, their embracing seeming to last longer than everyone else’s. She whispered something inaudible to him before Dewey began pulling him backwards towards the door. Huey laughed as Louie swayed on his feet, grinning goofily as his cheeks went scarlet. “I call front seat!” Dewey suddenly shouted, running to jump in the front of the limo beside Launchpad, who was to drive them home. When they got to the mansion, Scrooge was waiting for them in the doorway as they all stumbled to get out the limo. “Thanks Launchpad. Drive home safe laddie.” Scrooge said, patting on the window of the limo. “Will do Mr. McDee.” Launchpad said with a nod, turning the limo around in the circle driveway to head back to his garage. “Diz, Ms. Beakley has prepared one of our guest bedrooms for you to sleep in tonight, if you’d like to move from the stretcher.” Scrooge said with a smirk. “Perhaps I can lend you some pajamas?” Della remarked, eyeing Diz‘s long evening gown. “That’d be great, thank you, both of yall.” Diz replied with an amiable smile before yawning. “Sorry!” She giggled as the whole group proceeded to yawn after her. “It’s okay Diz.” Louie said, covering his mouth. “It’s getting to be late.” “C’mon, I’ll lead you upstairs.” Mrs. Beakley took a stumbling Diz by the wrist and lead her up to the available room. As they went out of sight, Scrooge held out his arms to stop his family. “Kids, I know it maebe a wee bit different with another person in the house, but Diz doesn’t really any other options. If she’s comfortable with it, I’m going to invite her to move in with us full time. We have plenty of rooms, an’-“ “Uncle Scrooge. We don’t mind.” Dewey interrupted, with a shrug at his brothers. “She’s got nowhere else to go.” Louie exclaimed, frowning. Webby’s eyes softened and she put a hand on Louie’s shoulder, “I for one, wouldn’t mind another female my age around.” “It’s my fault she’s here.” Huey adjoined, staring down at his feet. Della gave the boys each a proud smile, adding on, “We’ll adapt. Like we always do.” “Okay then, if all are in agreement, as of tonight, all family protections and privileges will include Diz. All assent?” The whole group looked at each other before nodding at him. “Okay then. Goodnight my luvs. See ye bright and early.” “Night.” “Goodnight.” They all chimed their good nights as they dispersed up the stairs. Huey suddenly spotted Mrs. Beakley coming from the opposite side of the house from the boys’ room, on the same side as Scrooge’s master bedroom. He smiled softly, running back to the room his shared with his brothers. An hour later, the 3 of them were all showered and in pajamas, sneaking across the mansion. Huey looked at the small, numbered plaques next to each door in the dim light, until they finally reached G4. “Guest room 4. This is it.” He hissed, reaching out to gently tap on the door. “You found it!” Webby’s voice made them all jump. “Don’t act like you didn’t figure I’d show up too.” She said with a laugh. Huey shook his head with a chuckle, raising his fist again to rap on the door. “Hello? Can I come in?” He called quietly. “Oh, hey.” The door opened to reveal a puffy, teary eyed Diz standing there. “Come on in.” She croaked, opening the door wider. They all filed in, Louie hopping up to sit on the bed as she shut the door behind them.
