Don't get him angry. You wouldn't like him when he's angry...

Delbert was taken off-guard when he and the rest of the assembled heroes were ensnared in Quackerjack's Screwy String. He attempted to dodge to one side to avoid it, but the sticky substance snagged his shoe and his left arm. He attempted to pull away, but was bound fast like a fly in a spider's web. The doctor ground his teeth, his annoyance starting to transform into anger. "I can see why this clown gets under Darkwing's skin so easily!" He growled.
But thanks to the Wastelander and his powers though, they were all freed. Feeling his anger subsiding somewhat, Delbert laughed, reveling in seeing Quackerjack get a taste of his own medicine as his mechanical teeth took a bite out of his backside.
Hearing the Wastelander address the duckling made Delbert realize that had nearly forgotten about her. Since having known Dreamchild, he had gotten a little more used to the idea of preteen superheroes. So far, from what she had displayed here today she seemed as though she could handle herself, just like Dreamchild.
But more importantly, Quackerjack was getting away! Delbert stepped into the conversation/debate taking place between the Quiverwing Quack and Wastelander, "We can discus this later," He said, the urgency of the situation and the fact that he was getting a little rush from his powers being triggered, even though hadn't physically changed yet making him more assertive then normal. "He's getting away!" He pointed at the retreating villain.

Delbert’s intervention was a welcome one and Quiverwing Quack rounded on the fleeing jester, one eye narrowing to a squint as she pulled back the arrow, taking aim.
“Not on my watch!” she assured the professor. “Mechnician!” Quiverwing knew the mouse by name thanks to Darkwing and the news. “Pull the plug on Quackerjack’s program! It’s time to take this quack off the air.”
The tile saw arrow whizzed after the loony toon, trails of fire flickering on the fletching, but this was easily attributed to the animated scene around them. The aim was high however, her intended target not the toymaker, but the singing tree he would soon pass under. Sparks and bark burst from the tree branch as it cracked, the limb falling lifeless and heavy as gravity took hold.

Far away from the fighting, safely hidden away on top of a high-rise building, Negaduck watched the dramatic fight unfold from a pair of chunky binoculars so sharp, it was as if he were a ghost among the scuffle itself. One, two, three of those Dream Dweebs on the scene, along with that do-gooder Quiverwing Quack, and Quackerjack made to thwart them all. It was almost admirable watching the crooked clown whip out modified toy after toy, but every effort to defeat the Dream League was in vain. An irritated growl rumbled at the back of his throat, and he moved his thumb in front of the lens, concealing the heroes from view, wishing it were that easy to squash them.
Out of those assembled, Negaduck paid careful attention to the lanky canine, wondering why Quackerjack would risk provoking whatever raging monster lurked within that awkward frame when he was already outnumbered. It must have taken some inner strength for the professor not to blow a gasket and unleash the brute because Negaduck had heard Quackerjack’s annoying taunts to enemies, which left even him ready to pluck every feather from his head, although nothing could compare to the blather that came out of Darkwing Duck. As he watched the pair confront one another with soundless dialogue, he wondered if Doctor Dopler maintained the same level of restraint as the savage beast he morphed into. Whatever game Quackerjack was playing, quickly ended with the disappointing thwack of a frying pan, and any shred of respect Negaduck might have been willing to throw the criminal’s way was lost when he turned tail and fled.
A gaze as dark and hard as black diamonds trailed after the villain scrambling for sanctuary but Quackerjack was on his own; Negaduck could not risk exposing himself to the public or the Dream League yet. His criminal compadre on the other hand… If Quackerjack escaped, he’d follow him to his hideout; if he was apprehended… well a minor inconvenience such as that had never stopped Negaduck before.

Quackerjack heard the arrow whistle past his ears, overshooting him by a good three feet. Hee, hee, what a lousy shot! Turning to look back over his shoulder, the jester duck decided to leave his foes with a scathing taunt.
"Missed me, missed me! Now ya haf'ta kiss meeee!" Though it would've been so much more effective if Quacky hadn't been buried next moment in a hail of broken tree limbs.
Stunned for a second or two, the lunatic villain sat up, rubbing his aching head. "You guys are a menace to society," he wailed. "Here I was, minding my own business, and you attacked me!"
"My YouToon machine is harmless. It didn't hurt anybody. Is it against the law to turn things black-and-white? Huh? Is it?"
"I'm gonna sue the Dream League and every last one of you so-called heroes!"
And he meant it, too.

Wastelander was really enjoying Quiverwing's work. She was not only brave, but knew that creating an obstacle can be just as effective as hitting the running target.
"Nice shot," he said, "Allow me to shut him up for you."
Wastelander took a glug of Thinner, mainly for the sake of making the process more fun. Once again, his more mischevous self took over.
"Yo, Harley Quinn with a Doodle," he said with a Groucho Marx like demeanor, "Ever wonder what it feels like to get a wedgie while wearing tights?"
Wastelander did not wait for Quackerjack to answer before giving that exact same experience. With a mischevous grin and luagh, Wastelander then gulged down some paint and handcuffed the criminal clown.

"I'm not kidding," continued the subdued villain. "You guys are in big trouble. Attacking private citizens, minding their own business."
"I had to defend myself from you bunch'a hooligans. And I'm gonna tell the newspapers and the TV stations and everybody what big bullies you really are!"
With his manacled hands, Quackerjack held Mr. Banana Brain close for moral support.

With a bit of mental exertion, Mechnician turned off the giant TV set, restoring the world to its every-day color palette. Satisfied, the little mouse glided over to the spot under the tree where their foe sat handcuffed.
"Golly, maybe he's right. He wasn't really breaking any laws, was he? At least, not any laws that I know about. And his machine didn't do us any harm. It was even kinda fun. Sort of."

Wastelander sighed with dissappointment at this new technicality. He walked over to a nearby stump and thought this puzzler over.
"Riddle me this?" Wastelander said to Quackerjack, "Have you served ALL the years given to you when you were last thrown in jail? Also, are you abosolutely sure you can sue us legally?"
Wastelander took a glug of paint and materialized a plate of cookies for the ducky jester.
"Just in case you happen to be right," he said, "here's a little restitution for ya. You see, I wouldn't have been sop hard on ya if it weren't for this blasted Thinner. It always makes me go over board on the pain. So, what do ya say we make up on this one. You don't try anything tricky and I promise to only use Thinner when you are really doing something illegal."

Quackerjack rose to glare at the assembled heroes. "Don't think you can buy your way out of this one, Dumb League. I know my rights! I'll see you in court!"
Though he snatched up the cookies anyway, stuffing them into his pockets. Just before he spun self-righteously on his heel and , clutching Mr. Banana Brain, began to march away.

Wastelander used his still remaining Paint powers to tie Quackerjack up to a high tree branch.
"You're not going anywhere until we've found you guilty of something," he said, angry at Quackerjack for having the balls to use the legal system on his enemies.
After a couple of minutes of thinking, it hit him. Why didn't he think of it before.
"Quackerjack," Wastelander said, triumphantly, "we're turning you in for disturbing the peace, resisting arrest, and mental harrasment."
Wastelander created a boombox with his paint abilities and did a victory dance while playing the Sonic Generations retro mix of City Escape.
