Chapter One: Magica's Big Scheme.
Amelia would pace around in her lair in her pair of black heeled shoes at her personal island situated just outside of Duckberg. She would pace up and around her personal cauldron and spell tome trying to decide her latest scheme to acquire Scrooge Mckduck's Number One Dime.
She pondered and pondered on how to sneak past or even breach Scrooge's Money Bin defenses. However, the issues is that at every turn she was thwarted by Mckduck and his nephew.
"Ohh! That infernal Scrooge and his meddling nephews make me so mad! There must be some way to get past all his defenses to steal his Number One Dime!" magica would complain to herself as she stomped around angrily and waved her hands.
She would stomp around and ponder and ponder, then suddenly it would hit her. What if there were perhaps some way to smash through Scrooge's Moneybin's defenses? If she could simply destroy the defenses and brute force her way to the Number One dime, but how?
Magica was powerful in the mystic arts, but even she would admit as far as pure strength was concerned she was at a disadvantage. If there was only some way she thought as she would walk around her lair that she could increase her own strength to be mightier to breach Scrooge's defenses.
"What if I use spell to give myself more muscles? Oh no, that wouldn't work! What if turn myself into a dragon? No! I'd be shot down by Scrooge's infernal contraptions!" magica told herself until she stopped and saw outside of her window a towering golden statue of Scrooge Mckduck, one that she despised.
"Wait, what if...I turned myself bigger? Yes, what if I became so large that I could easily crush Scrooge's toys?" Magica asked herself.
"Squawk! Didn't I already tell you, if you turned giant you'd not be able to hold the dime!" ratface, her faithful companion replied.
"Ugh! You're right, what am I to do then? It is only way to get past Scrooge's defenses!" magica exclaimed to him back.
It was just then that the doorbell began to rang, which meant to Amelia it was mail time. Her least favorite time of the day! At this she would sigh and let out a slight moan as she would frustratingly stomp over towards her door. She hated the mail, mostly because it meant more bills to pay!
"There better not be any more bills in the mail I swear!" she said as she would open up her lair's main door and slowly walk outside to her mailbox on her favorite black high heeled slippers.
As she would stubbornly open up her mailbox, the duck witch would see a simple mail letter delivered to her doorstep, one in a dark purple envelope. Clearly it wasn't a bill as bills wouldn't have such a pretty color. She tilted her head in confusion before slowly reaching into the mailbox and taking out the letter. It would read as follows:
"To Amelia from Amanda, ps. Please read in private, it's confidential. Grazie!" the mysterious letter said.
Magica had no idea who this 'Amanda' was, but whomever they were clearly were not looking for her taxes! Thus Magica closed the lid on her mailbox and slowly walked into her lair once more. She acted casual as to not arouse any suspicion before slowly opening her door and going inside.
"I know not who this 'Amanda' is, but it must be important!" magica said as she would walk towards her bedroom.
Within her personal chamber and abode, one filled with all sorts of spell books and magical items Magica would slowly go inside before closing and locking the door. Even Ratface and Poe were cautious to not enter her personal chamber when she locked the door.
"Oh well, let's see now" magica muttered to herself before opening the envelope.
As she slowly opened it, she fount two things inside. First, looked like some sort of map with writing on it, the next was a card.
"Huh? Very strange I must say!" magica said before taking out the map and looking at it.
The map appeared as one of that of Duckberg, but it has markings on it and circles with a red pen. It showed three locations of Duckberg's powerplants and showed lines leading up to Scrooge's Moneybin.
The powerplant locations had been circled with the words "attack here" on them. At this, Magica quickly deduced that whomever had sent this letter had it in mind to destroy the power supply leading up to Mckduck's money bin!
"That's it! If I destroy power supply, Scrooge's defenses will turn off and i can win! But..why would they tell me this?!?" magica asked herself.
Then, she saw the card in the envelope fall out of it and onto her floor. She would shake her set of black hair left and right before leaning down and picking it up. As she did so she noticed that it was in Italian and contained a rather bizarre instructions. When she lifted it up to her face she read it as instructions for a spell to give her superpowers!
"An Enhancement Enchantment?" magica asked herself as she read it.
Apparently, it was some sort of spell to give herself not just the ability to turn gigantic, but also to revert back to normal! Then again, how and why Amanda acquired this knowledge and sent it to her still remained a mystery.
