As the ducks headed back to the pond from defeating Dragaunus in his attempt to take over Earth yet again they got a message from a mysterious person in their coms. "Meet me at the woods by midnight tonight or one of you will meet an unfortunate demise." As the cons went dead again Wildwing looked at his team and frowned. He didn't recognize the voice that spoke to them,but he had a bad feeling. "Alright team. Head down to the base and can out. Look for anything out of the ordinary." He commanded. They all nodded,and when they reached the bottom of the elevator they all spread out with their pucklaunchers at the ready. Duke had his saber out and before he could blink he was tied up and hung upside down. He didn't get a good look at the attacker,but what he could see before being strung up was that the attacker was a duck. As Grin turned the corner he found Duke hanging upside down. "What happened?" He asked. "Don't know. One minute I'm walking around the next I'm hanging upside down from the ceiling." He said trying to regain his balance since returning upright. When he was upside down all the blood was rushing to his head. Wildwing was using the mask to scan the area and find out if the place was safe or not. Deeming it safe he walked to the kitchen and got himself something to eat. Just as he sat down his com went off. "Who would call my com if they know I'm here with them?" He thought. "Hello?" He answered. " I know where you sleep and if you don't come to the woods at midnight tonight you will pay dearly." The voice said and hung up. WIildwing was scared. What if the voice meant Tanya or any one of his teammates? He couldn't let that happen. As the others headed to bed Wildwing grabbed the mask off his nightstand and snuck out to the forest. There he used the mask to scan for life signs,but all he got was static.

He silently cursed to himself then decided to head further into the woods. "I'm here! Now what do you want?!" He called out. No answer. His com went off and he answered without a word. "You have fallen into my trap! Now say goodbye to your beloved neice! " The voice said on the com. 'My neice? What does the voice mean my neice!' He thought. He couldn't think for too long before he heard a feminine scream from deeper in the forest. He ran in the direction of the scream only to see a young female duck tied up by her wrists on a high enough tree and Wraith,Chameleon,and Siege were all gathered around as she was lowered slowly towards a lot of boiling acid. He hit his chest piece and quickly changed into his battle gear and bodychecked Siege before he turned his wrist launcher to Chameleon. "You Saurian sick have five seconds to release her or there will be a price to pay." He said angrily. The young female duck looked at Wildwing surprised that he was the only one to show up. Just as she thought that she felt the role holding her slacker and she screamed as she fell. But before she hit the acid she felt arms wrap around her tiny frame. She looked up and saw it was Nosedive,her father. She wrapped her arms around his neck as he held her tightly to his chest. She let out a few tears and he rubbed gentle circles on her back. "It's ok baby. Daddy has you." He soothed. "Hey Dive,who is this?" Wildwing asked while looking at the little girl in Dive's arms. "This is my daughter Malila. Malila,this is your uncle Wildwing." He introduced. (A/N Malila is just a little child in this story) Before Wildwing could say hi to Malila he was tackled to the ground by Siege while the rest of the team fought the other two. "You are seriously messing with my aura." Grin said to Chameleon. Just before Grin could punch Chameleon they all activated their teleporters and disappeared. Soldering turned to look over at Nosedive whom was holding Malila protectively. "Malila,what did those guys want with you?" He asked gently. Malila shakes her head. She was afraid to speak at all. Using the mask he scanned her to make sure she wasn't hurt. She had some slight bruising on her wrists, but other than that she was fine.

Heading back to the Pond Wildwing was lost in thoughts. "You ok bro?" Dive asked him. " I'm fine." Wing answered a little too forcefully. It scared Malila who squeaked and hid behind Grin. Wildwing sighed,knelt down on one knee,and held out a hand. "Sorry I scared you little one. Can you forgive your uncle for scaring you?" He asked. Malila looked at Wing,then up at Grin. Grin just stood there with his arms crossed not getting involved in this matter. slowly Malila came out from behind Grin and walked over to Wildwing and took his hand. He pulled her into a hug and stood up still holding her. "Yo Wing! Have you seen Malila?!" He asked before seeing her in his brothers arms. He walked over and looked at them hugging. "Looks like you two are getting along well." Dive said with a snicker. Wildwing just rolled his eyes behind the mask and set Malila down. She looked up at him and then at her dad. She hugged Wing's leg,then ran to her father whom had knelt down and opened his arms to give her a hug. Her scooped her up and kissed her forehead. "Bed time girly girl." Dive said and took her to his bunk where he laid her down on her bed and walked over to his bookshelf. He went to grab a comic book to read to her,but thought better of it and grabbed the book titled "The Wizard of Oz" Malila looked at the book and sat up in bed quickly. she loved that book. Nosedive Sat down on the edge of her bed and opened the book. As he read to Malila he noticed that she was struggling to stay awake . He closed the book and tucked her into bed. He bent down and kisses her on the head. "Sweet dreams honey." He whispered. He then went into his bathroom to take a shower. When he finished he came back and changed into his pajamas and laid down in his bed.
