I Survived 100 DAYS as a DUCK in HARDCORE Minecraft!

On day 1 I spawned in as a cute,  and not so Ugly, little duckling! I’m so tiny. I’ve only got 2 hearts?  I guess that checks out. I’m not  strong, I’m just a square of fluff. “At least I can fly—“

Nope. I can’t fly yet. But I can swim! And check out my duck family!  I’ve got a Mama duck and a bunch of duckling  siblings. They were all swimming in a pond. “Hey guys! Wait up for me! Wow. This  sure is peaceful. Just paddling along.”

My siblings and I had a great  time splashing around together   and following mother duck around.  We didn’t even run into any trouble! As the sun set that night, we made a little  shelter and all huddled together to go to sleep. “Maybe this will be an easy 100 days of survival.”

Hey! A duck can dream. On day 2 we were all awoken   by the sound of loud barking. I looked around and  saw we were surrounded by some mean looking dogs! Our little duck shelter was super weak, the  dogs got right in and started attacking us! “Oh no!” I would have to be brave!

“FEEL THE WRATH OF MY MIGHTY BEAK!!” I tried to fight back but I instantly  realized that a little duck stands   no chance against big mean dogs. We would have to make a run for it! My duck family and I fled away, waddling as  fast as our little webbed feet could take us! 

But it was no use, the dogs  ended up surrounding us again! “I have to do somethin–WHOA!” Next thing I knew I was  tumbling fast down a steep hill. “Ouch! Oof!!!” You could definitely say I  was on a roll. I fell with   a splash into some water at the end of the hill.

I was nowhere near my family anymore. They were  still far above me. My family was being kidnapped! I did what I could to find my  way back in time to save them,   but by the time I arrived…everyone was gone. “This is not good. Waddle I do without them?!”

I made my way back to where I first saw my family. “I wish I was playing with the other ducklings  right now. I don’t want to be all alone.” If I wanted to survive long enough to find  out what happened to them, I’d  have to find some place to hide.

I noticed a little hole along the  edge of the pond, and ducked into it. “No pun intended.” I waited out the night there, and decided to  try to track down my duck family in the morning. On Day 3 I woke up without any  issues from other predators. I  

Hopped out of the hole in hopes of  seeing that my family had returned. But to my great disappointment, there  were no signs of other ducks around. With nothing else to do, I went  around and started collecting   and mining materials to build a better shelter. 

I didn’t want to be out in  the open if the dogs returned. “I’ll have to be smarter than  the average bird brain when I   build this shelter. I need to  keep the big, bad dogs out.” Eventually I had a good amount of supplies and  started crafting my craft table, wood tools,  

And then began the beginnings of my  little house by the shore of the pond. “Location, location, location.” This house had a great view. It was  the perfect spot for a duck like me.  On days 4-5, I still needed lots  more materials for my base. I had  

To Waddle off a little farther away  from the pond to get more materials. Suddenly, I saw a peacock in the distance.  I came closer and asked the peacock if I   could get some wood. I explained my  situation to him. The bird gasped! “My family was kidnapped by a group of dogs too!”

“No way?! What are the chances of that happening?  Do you know where our families were taken?” The bird wasn’t sure, but explained  that they were being kept somewhere   so their feathers could be  harvested over and over. “That’s awful! Ruining lives  just for some measly feathers!”

We heard a rustling and out jumped an ocelot!  The peacock was instantly spooked and ran away. “GULP! I wish I could get away!” But that wasn’t an option for me, I would  have to be tough. I was only a tiny duck,  

But I wanted to find my family! I couldn’t  let this cat ruin my chance to do that. I was able to dodge a lot of the  attacks the cat threw at me. Then,   without too much trouble, I  defeated that rascally cat. “You were a bad puddy tat.”

Once the cat was gone, I could feel  myself changing! I was leveling up!   I wasn’t a little duckling anymore!  I was a..little bit bigger duckling! “I got extra hearts and…let’s  test out these wings!” Hmmm…I could fly a little bit! “I’m a flyin’ talkin’ ducky now!” I could only fly a short distance,  

But it would give me some much  needed advantages. This was neat! On days 6-8 I returned back to my base and  started crafting some stone tools. As I worked,   I started to hear something outside. I  carefully went and looked around. I was  

Hoping to see my duck family, but instead I saw  one of those awful dogs sniffing around my house. I wasn’t going to let him get away with his evil  deeds, he would be sorry for stealing my family! “Hey! You! Dog! Who are you, and  what have you done with my family?!”

The dog refused to give any  information. Instead, it lurched at me! The dog probably thought that  this would be an easy fight,   but this time I had my stone tools! I was ready  to take him down! And that’s just what I did.

Once the dog was gone, I saw that  it dropped a note. I picked it up   and read it. The note was an order for  the dog to find the duck that got away,   and to bring me back to the  farm located in the Badlands. “Ah ha! I will quack the case soon enough!”

Now I knew they were somewhere in the  badlands! Having that dog come after me   proved to be a very helpful thing after all! On days 9-10, he did not want to waste   any time! I traveled towards the badlands. Having my new ability to briefly fly came in  

Handy! Whenever I’d come across Ravines or other  obstacles, I could flap my way right across them! “Up! Up! And awwwwaaaay!” By and by, I made it to the Badlands  with no harm done. I spotted the farm,   but it didn’t look so much like  a farm… It looked more like a  

Prison! There were so many sad  animals fenced in and caged up. “So many birds in cages! That’s  so mean! Birds need to be free   to flap and fly! They shouldn’t be cooped up.” I noticed all the depressed animals, but I didn’t  notice the big wolf guard staring me down until I  

Was close to her. I assumed she would yell  at me, but instead she lowered her voice. “You shouldn’t be here. I would run  far away from here, if I were you.” “Wait? You’re not going to try and capture me?” “Not if I don’t have to. I’m not exactly happy  

With what is happening here..I’d leave  myself, but things are…complicated.” “Who is in charge here?” “I shouldn’t be telling you any of this, but  if you must know, he is a powerful monster. A   big, big, BIG dog! Fearsome and powerful. No one  dares go against him. Or you’ll be destroyed.”

Just then another guard came  out of nowhere and attacked me! “You need to go to obedience school!  Didn’t anyone tell you not to bite!” I tried to fight back, but the  guard was too strong. There’s   only one way out of this: I would have to run.

I didn’t like the idea of  running away from my family,   but I knew if I wanted to help them I’d have  to live to fight another day. I took my chance,   flapping my wings, I dashed away from the farm.

On days 11-12 I ran away. I decided  to take a rest in a tree. My wings   and legs were getting so tired.  I was new to this flying thing. I was getting ready to rest  my eyes when I heard hooting. 

At first I wasn’t sure where the voice was coming  from, but then I noticed an old owl on a branch. “HOO-Whooo are you, young duck?” “Oh! I didn’t see you there. Pardon  me. I’m Zozo. What’s your name?” “HOO–I am Weymar, the Wise.  Who are you running away from?”

“I…I’m running from these dogs that  are rounding up a lot of birds,   and other animals. They are throwing  them in cages. They took my whole   family. You should be very careful.  You don’t want to end up in a cage.”

“HOO–I know of WHO you speak. For this  happened when I was a young owl, not much   bigger than yourself. Animals were being taken  from their homes and forced to do the bidding of   their captors. We fought together, and eventually  defeated our foe. I’m much too old to fight again,  

But I can see the world is in need of a  hero. Perhaps that hero…is you, Zozo.” “Who? Me? I don’t know about that.” I wasn’t so sure that I could save the day,  I couldn’t even defeat one of the guards.  

But I knew I would do whatever I  could to help my family escape. I bid the old owl goodbye and  thanked him for his wisdom. I   headed back to my base. I needed  to regroup and figure out a plan.   On days 13-15, I woke and  realized what time it was.

“UPGRADE TIME!” I wasn’t strong enough yet to go up against these  dogs in the badlands, but I could make my base   more secure. After all, they could be sending  more dogs out to grab me up at any minute. So I started improving my little lakeside home.

“Man, I can’t believe Big Dog is capturing  all these animals! It’s so messed up.” If I didn’t figure something out quick,  more animals would be in trouble.” I finished my upgrades and really wished my duck  family could see the home I was building for them.

“I think they would get a quack out of it.” Thinking of them made me get an idea,  I could totally have them with me,   just in a different way. A statue way. “You know what time it is, right? STATUE MAKING TIME!”

I began building and thought about  how the ducks taught me a lot. Life   should be spent with the ones you  love, and being free as a bird! I liked the way it was coming along. The statue  family would keep company until I rescued my real  

Family. I was really getting into building the  statue when I heard a bird chirping excitedly. It was the peacock that had  run away from the wild ocelot. “Well bless my soul! It’s you! Good to see you’re  still alive after that run in with the cat.”

“Yeah, me too! My name is Zozo, by the way.” “I’m Taffy. I noticed your nice Lakehouse.  Did you build that all on your own?” “Yep! Now I am working on a statue of  my duck family that got taken away.” “It’s hard living on your own,  isn’t it? I miss my family, too”

“Say, you could live here with  me if you want. We can keep each   other safe. I am working on a  plan to rescue our families!” Taffy thought that sounded great! “As long as I won’t be too much of a bird-en.”

We went inside and I made sure she  had everything a bird could need.  On days 16-19, I decided it was past time  I got around to making some iron weapons. I wandered around the area, and  after a bit of flying around I   spotted something interesting. It was a mineshaft! “Bingo!”

I entered the mine and followed  the maze tracks to some iron. Of course, it wasn’t a walk in the park,  down in the mines. It was a walk in the   dark. I met some zombies and skeletons down  there that were interested in ending my life.

“Back off! I’ve got a sword  and I know how to use it!” I started swinging my sword at them, and had a  couple close calls, but I knocked them out pretty   quickly. It was good to see I was learning how to  hold my own. Still, I didn’t care to run into any  

More creatures, so after I had enough iron, I  booked it out of the mine as fast as I could. Back at the house, I readied  my supplies and got to work   crafting my stronger weapons and  armor with my crafting table.

“These will give me the edge I need  to go up against those tough guards.” On days 20-22 it was time to release the  quaken! I told Taffy to keep a birds-eye   on the base while I returned back to the  badlands. This time I would be ready! “Those guards won’t see me coming!!”

Because this time I wasn’t going  through a door. I was flying overhead!  I know what you’re thinking…I  wasn’t the most accomplished flier,   but I could fly better than the  dogs could. It was worth a try. As I approached the walls of the farm, I took  a running start and launched into the air!

“I’m like a flying ninja!” “Hey, there’s a duck flying over our walls. INTO  the farm. Now that’s what you call a bird brain.” Well, I guess I wasn’t as stealthy as I  hoped I was. I landed near the guards.

“Wait a second! It’s that troublesome duck  that keeps getting away from us! Get him!” I jumped into the air, dodging attacks. “‘Toucan’ play at this game! En guarde!” I got out my weapons and started handing out  damage. I couldn’t lie, it was a little daunting.  

They would get a hit or a bite, but with my armor  protecting me, they were toast after a few hits! “What a “ruff” day for you dogs, getting your  tails handed to you by a little duck like me.”

Finally I had finished the guards off. I  didn’t waste any time searching for my family. I started running all around the grounds  searching for my family. I wanted to save   all the other animals I saw, and I  promised myself I would help them,  

But first I had to locate my family…but  they weren’t in any of the cages or fences! “Where are they?” “WHOT IS OLL THIS SQUAKING AND HOLLARIN’!?” A chill ran down my spine. A  giant creature stomped loudly   out of the foreboding base. It was enormous. “Big Dog.” I was terrified.

“GAAURDS?? Why ah yow lettin’ sum pip  squeak cause suchcha ruckus, eh? Looks   lyke soombudy outta teach this quacker a lesson.” Big Dog let out a pss, pss, psss. Out came a tiger. He charged  at me. I tried to fly away,  

But it was no use. This big cat  could jump–high! I used my weapons,   but his attacks broke my armor quickly. I  was exposed and I was losing hearts fast! “HIII-YAH!” A big wolf came bounding into the fight.  It was the nice guard! She  told the tiger to back off!

“Let’s get out of here!” We ran for it! Who knew how many more guards  would come running after us, or worse, Big Dog. Shockingly, the tiger didn’t chase after us.  After a while we felt safe enough to stop running. “You saved my life!” “I couldn’t stand by any longer. And you’re really  

Brave. You might have what it  takes to take down the farm.” “I failed to save my family for a second time.  I think it’s pretty obvious I can’t do that.” The wolf assured me that she  believed in me. It was nice,   but I still felt awful that  I hadn’t saved them yet.

“Where are you going to go now?” “Honestly, I didn’t think that far ahead.  I just couldn’t let you become catnip.” “I have a base I’m building  with another bird friend,   why don’t you come live there  until you figure things out?” “I’d be very grateful to stay with you both.”

I led the way back to the lake house. “By the way, I’m Zozo. What do I call you?” “Awooo is the name.” Seems fitting. On days 23-26,   we got back to the base. Taffy greeted  us, and I introduced Awooo to Taffy.

“I’ll need to do some upgrades and add a room  for you Awooo. It shouldn’t take too long.” I made sure to make the room nice and spacious  for Awooo. It was the best room in the house!

I noticed I hadn’t added to my statue  in a while so I got to work on that too. “You know…I think I will add my friends to this   piece. I’d like to honor all  my good friends and family.” Just then Awooo came trotting up. “Wow this is looking great! Everyone watching  

Should subscribe so that they can see  all the other cool stuff you’ll make!” “What do you mean everyone who  is watching? It’s just us here. “Ah they know who they are.” On days 27-31, I went out exploring to  find new resources. I was pecking around  

And I heard somebody who sounded very upset.  I followed the voice and came upon a raccoon. “Hello, is everything ok?” “No! Everything is NOT ok! I’ve been  kicked out of my house by a big ol’   monster! He thinks he can just push me  outta my home just cuz he’s mean, and can  

Destroy me super fast. HUMPH! Nobody  ain’t got no respect these days!” I tried to calm the Raccoon down and asked him to  show me to his house. He walked away and showed   me to his home. I approached the door and sure  enough, there was a monster cooped up inside.

The monster growled and told me to get  lost before I became its next meal. “Listen, this isn’t your home. You really  shouldn’t take things that aren’t–” “ARE YOU STILL TALKING?! BEGONE! BEGONE  OR BE EATEN! SILLY FOOD TALKING BACK TO   A PREDATOR SUCH AS I! IF I WEREN’T SO COZY IN HERE  

AND ALREADY EATEN 3 MEALS TODAY…WHY I’D  GOBBLE YOU IN ONE BITE! SCRAM, PESTS!” It was clear this rude guy wasn’t going  to listen to anything I had to say.  I’d have to teach this guy some  manners. And I had an idea. On days 32-35, I started digging  near the raccoon’s house. What  

We had here was a reverse 3 Little Pigs situation. In this scenario the “big bad wolf” is INSIDE  the house and I needed to blow the house down. And to do that, I started to dig a  tunnel deep down under the house,  

Until I found some lava pools. This was one  pool I did not want to get my feathers wet in. Now that I knew where the lava was,   I headed back out of the tunnel. The next  part of my plan was to findsome creepers.

As I came out of the hole, I quickly found some! “I’m just here for your gunpowder, don’t mind me!” Now that I had gunpowder, I  just needed one more thing:   sand. I headed to the riverbed  and gathered a bunch up. With the gunpowder and sand, I crafted some TNT.

“I think you might know  where I’m going with this.” I returned to the tunnel that I dug under the  raccoon’s house, and ran down to the lava pools.   I carefully set the TNT next to the lava, and  began setting a fuse up and out of the tunnel. “Match. Set. Light.””

Everything was going according to plan. On days 36-39 I waddled up to the front   door and called out to the monster. The  door opened to reveal the grouchy foe. “Hello again. I thought I’d let  you know that you have a limited  

Time offer to leave this house before I  huff, and puff, and…blow this house down.” “And how do you suppose to do such a thing?” “Easy. I have a brick of TNT nearby, and  a fuse that’s ready for me to light.” “TNT?”

“It’s Dynamite. And…I’ll win this  fight. I would slither on out of here,   if I was you. This house isn’t worth your life.” “YOU TALK TOO MUCH, DUCK! I  YIELD TO NO ONE! BE GONE!” “Ok…but don’t say I didn’t warn you.”

I activated the fuse and down the signal  went into the tunnel. I took cover. There   was a giant explosion, and the floor of the house  gave way, sending the monster to his fiery grave. “Yes! My plan worked!” The raccoon was nearby and  watched the whole thing.

“Was your plan to destroy my entire house?” The raccoon was not exactly happy,  despite the fact that the monster   was gone. I felt bad. Maybe I had  been a little intense with my plan. “Now how am I going to  afford to rebuild my house?”

“Put it on my bill. That was a joke,  I don’t actually have any money,   but what I do have is a really big lake  house that would totally fit you. I have   other friends staying there too. Why  don’t you come stay there with us?”

The raccoon grumbled but agreed. He was still  a little sore about his house being blown to   smithereens. I showed him the way to the  lake house, and we made our way there. On days 40-43 we arrived back to the lake  house. The raccoon sure was a grouchy fellow,  

But something about him was endearing too.  Like an angry little elf. They are just   adorable when they get mad. You can’t  help but smile when they yell at you. I showed the raccoon around and created  him a raccoon-tastic space for his home.

I went over to my statue creations. We  had my duck family and Taffy. I loved   how it was looking! It was only right  to build a statue of the raccoon too. I started building the raccoon’s  statue. Looking at all these family  

And friends in the statues made me  think about another creature that had   been so nice to me. Weymar, the Wise Owl. I didn’t want anything to happen to him. “Maybe I’ll go visit him and see  if he would like to stay at the  

House. We are safer in numbers. I  don’t want him getting captured.” On days 44-49 I returned to the tree where the   owl lived. I found him sitting under  the tree, but he didn’t look so good. “Mr. Weymar, are you ok?”

“Hoo! Ah! Zozo, my dear boy. *COUGH* I  was worried you might have been one of   the henchmen. I’m fine. I’m just feeling  a little under the feather. It’s hard to   get food and such these days. I can’t fly,  you see. I’m kind of stuck in this tree.”

That was not good. I couldn’t stand by  and let Weymar suffer. I told Weymar   that I wanted him to come live at the  house with us and we would help take   care of him. He was so grateful but  didn’t know how he would get there.

“I’ll figure out something! I’ll  find a way to carry you there.” I immediately thought of  the mine carts in the mines. “Those would work great!” I just needed a way to push it along. I headed back to the mine and  started collecting the tracks  

For the cart. I would make a track  from the owl’s tree to the base. “That should be enough.” I took everything back to the  owl, and laid some tracks down   and rebuilt the Cart. “Climb aboard!” Once he was in, I pushed Weymar along  in the cart, picking up the tracks as  

I went along and setting them ahead until I  made it all the way back to the lake house. I was excited to build him a room in the  house, my little misfit family was growing  

So much!. Weymar was super grateful for the help.  He couldn’t believe he had us to care for him now. “Ain’t no thang but a chicken wing!” “I’m an owl.” On days 50-53 I decided to go deeper  in the mine to find some diamonds,  

I hadn’t seen diamonds yet, but I  was certain I’d run into some if   I went a little farther in. As I went  deeper, I ran into a big stinky toad! “I smell something most “fowl”, and it’s  not me. A-ha! Care for a SLICE of my sword?”

I swung my sword while the toad tried  hitting me with his tongue. He was no   match for me though, and I quickly took him out. I went a little farther, and  ran into some tarantulas too. “Oooo these guys creep me out!”

I made quick work of them, swinging my sword  as hard as I could. They too were soon gone. That’s when at long last, I had found the  diamonds! I mined them up as quickly as I could,   and then headed back home  to make them into things.

I made a strong pair of armor,  and some super strong weapons. “As they say. diamond weapons hurt forever.” I definitely felt I had a better chance  of kickin’ bad guy booty with these   upgrades. I just needed to figure  out where my family was being held.

As I was crafting, one of my friends told me  Weymar needed to see me. So I went to his room. “Hey Weymar the Wise! You wanted to see me?” “HOO! Oh, Zozo. I have loved being here.  I feel so much happier. *COUGH* I hate to  

Seem ungrateful for asking you anything. So–you  know what. Never mind, It was silly anyways.” “No, please. I want to help! I’m happy  to do anything, anything at all.” “Well…ok, if you insist. I have the most  overwhelming craving for a tropical fish.  

I loved eating it when I was younger. My  siblings and I would devour them when we   were in the nest together. *COUGH  COUGH* Oh how I miss those days.” “Sure! That’s no trouble at  all. I’ll go right away.”

Weymar was so excited to hear I would help  him. I started on my quest immediately. On days 54-57 I finally reached the water. There  was a perfect spot for catching tropical fish! Now if I was a gorilla, or hoglin, I might have  had trouble getting this fish. But I was a duck,  

So I was in luck. I paddled out into  the water and dove after the fish. “Ok…this is a little tricker than I thought.” I spotted a school of fish and started swinging   my sword. Eventually I got one! I kept  swinging until I had gotten a few more.

“Well, now to simply swim back to shore with  no problem–ACK! SOMEBODY BIT MY TAIL FEATHERS!” It was a shark! I was under attack! Actually I  was more over attack, as the shark was below me. “Oh you like picking on smaller fish do ya?” “Wait a second, don’t you eat smaller fish too?”

“Well yeah, and that one was  supposed to be mine! Now scram!” I fought the shark. It was tough, but  eventually I won, thanks to my upgrades. “Oh! Check me out! I’m growing!  I’m a much bigger duck now!” I had leveled up! Finally! “Hey, maybe I can fly now.”

I thought a happy thought, took off  running, and started flapping my wings.  I zoomed into the air! This was amazing! “I can fly! I can fly! I can FLLYYYY!” On days 58-62 I arrived back in the base  

With the fish. As I climbed the base,  I saw that Weymar was even worse off. “Oh no, Weymar! You don’t look so good. Here, I  brought you your favorite fish! This should help!” “H-h-hoo. *COUGH WHEEZE* Thank you, Zozo.  I don’t have the energy to eat it just yet.  

Let me just put it here. I remember when mother  would return home with the fish back in 1932,   just as you just did. *COUGH  WHEEZE* She liked them lightly   pan fried, *COUGH* and put a dollop of  cranberry sauce…on WHEEZE*…the…s–s–side…” “Weymar…Weymar??! Weymar suddenly passed away  with a smile on his face.

I wondered if I had gotten him the fish sooner if  it would have saved him. But I was also glad he   took his final breath knowing he was cared for  and not alone. He was going to be very missed. 

On days 63-66 I was moping around the base. I  felt so sad, and that was ok. I just needed to let   out my feelings and be upset. I went over to the  statues and had a good sob while I added another  

One to the bunch. I wanted to honor Weymar’s  memory by adding him to the group.. The statue   made me feel better and I could smile again. There  was my wise friend Weymar staring back at me. This place was becoming a  whole museum full of statues! It was beautiful. 

On days 67-70 Awooo came up to tell  me that they had found something. “It’s a note from Weymar! You’re  going to want to read this!” I took the note and read it. “Zozo! Check out the old fort east of here  your family might be there! And remember,  

Things aren’t always what they seem. Just  because you can’t hear or see something,   doesn’t mean it isn’t working.  Believe in yourself and your plans!” What was that supposed to mean? It was a nice sentiment,   but I feel like it was some kind of  coded message. I’d try to remember that.

“Well, Awooo. Looks like I need to  follow these clues. Can you help   keep watch over the lake house while im gone?” Awooo was up for the task. In the  Morning, I would take my leave.  On days 71-74 I went in search of  the hidden prison in the Tundra.

As I traveled across the snowy forest,  I spied a fort hiding in the mountains. “Is that it?” I saw that the fort was active and there  were guards that looked just like the ones   from the farm. They were carrying large  shipments of feathers out of the fort.

“This place must be a prison where  the other ducks and birds are being   held captive. They are harvesting their feathers.” My blood boiled. I didn’t waste another moment.  I drew my diamond weapons, and with my diamond   armor I charged in! I started swinging my  sword with all my mighty duck strength!  

Those guards didn’t stand a chance, I couldn’t  believe how easily I blew through them all! “Feel the wrath of my revenge!” I made my way into the prison, cutting  down anyone who stood in my way. I was feeling like I could take  on anything, at this point! 

On days 75-78 I reached a room that  looked important. I barged in, unafraid,   saw…the tiger that had almost  destroyed me back at the farm! I felt a tinge of fear creep back into me.  Did I have what it took to go up against  

Him? Regardless, what choice did I have  now? My family could be in this very room.   I shook off my fear and went head to head  with the cat. Or, claw to sword, rather. This tiger was still tough. I got lots of good  hits in, but he was so strong, it wasn’t doing  

Much damage. He was good at blocking too! He even scratched me a few times! and I saw tons of birds in cages!  Maybe my family was in here! As we fought I noticed a big button, it  looked important. I took a chance and  

Hit it hard. All of a sudden, the cage  door swung open. The birds were free! The tiger was in shock at his sudden misfortune. “What’s the matter? Cat got your tongue?” Some of the birds started to attack him. While he was distracted by all the birds flying  

Out of their cages I was able to attack in his  weak spot. He was done for! The tiger was no more! I looked around the room, and saw my baby  duck siblings! THey were so excited to see   me and couldn’t believe how much I had  grown. I was so relieved to see them!

“And where’s mamma duck?” The ducks looked sad. “Mama got taken by the big bad  dog to his mansion. The other   birds say that it’s on some sort of volcano.” “That seems like a bad place to build  a mansion. This dog isn’t as smart as  

I thought. Don’t worry, little  ducklings. I will rescue mama!” On Days 79-84 I spent some time searching the  room where I had originally found the tiger.   You never know what kind of information you can  find, and this tiger was clearly a leader of this  

Operation. He had to have all sort of confidential  information laying around. And if nothing else,   I could take his valuables. He didn’t have  any use for them now that he was toast. I looked all around and found a treasure chest. “Bingo.” I opened it up and found a map. I looked closer.

“Well “waddle” you know! A map right to the  volcano mansion! ANd what else do we have here?” I saw that there was a whistle in there  too. I blew it, but nothing happened. “Why he kept a broken whistle, I’ll never  know. But, eh, I’l just keep it just in case..”

With the room fully inspected,  I went back to the ducklings. “Alright you guys, let’s  get the QUACK out of here.   I built you a home that’s super secure. Let’s go!” I saw some of the birds that had  helped in the fight against the tiger,  

They looked unsure of where to go and  what to do. I invited them back to the   lake house with us. They were very  grateful and agreed to come with us. We waddled as fast as we could back to the base. On Days 25 I returned safely home with all my  

Ducklings in a row. I immediately started  expanding the house, and made more rooms   for all the birds. They loved their new  living quarters. Sure beats a small cage! Awoo and Taffy had something  exciting to show me while I was away. “We built something very enchanting!”

They had found items to make an enchanting table!  And had what we needed to enchant my armor! “Wow! Thank you! This is incredible!” If I wanted to rescue mama duck, I needed to be  as ready as possible for going up against Big  

Dog. This would give me a fighting chance! On days 90-94 I walked over to my field of   statues. THey were almost all done, I  just needed to finish building the rest   of Weymar’s statue. I was so excited to  reveal all of the statues to my friends!

As I looked at Weymar’s statue I thought  about the strange note he gave me. “Just because you can’t hear or see  something, doesn’t mean it isn’t working.” Hmmm…you know…that gives  me an idea about something. I put the finishing touches on the  statues and was finally finished!

A field of my favorite friends. What a sight!  On days 95-97 I knew it was  time to go rescue my mom. I followed the map to the mansion on  the volcano. This place was spooky.   I could see the appeal of building a  mansion on the volcano now, that is,  

If you’re an evil villain.  It’s perfect for that vibe. I had to admit, I felt a bit scared.  And that was okay. That didn’t mean   I was going to run away. No. I was  saving my mother, come dogs or lava! I brandished my weapons and  started fighting my way through  

The guard dogs along the path to the door. On day 98, I was exploring the mansion,   when I went into a room with a strange  looking bunny man inside of it! “What the- who are you?” “Who am I? Who are you?” “Oh wait, I’m you!” “You’re me!”

“Yeah you’re me from my bunny video!” “Oh yeah! That was an awesome adventure.  When everyone is done watching this video,   they should go check that one out!” “Amazing! Well, I’ve got a family to save. See ya! On day 99 I made it into Big Dogs lair inside the  

Spooky mansion. After defeating a tons of  guards, I felt something funny happening. I was leveling up! This is just what I needed! I   needed to be a mighty duck  to defeat a massive dog! “I’m as strong as I can get now!”

I was super buff! I was going to give Big  Dog some trouble with my new strength. “He’s going to have to  answer to this firequacker!” It was time for an ultimate smack down. I looked around the room and  saw Mother Duck in a cage! “MOM!” “ZOZO?? WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!”

“I’d lyke to ask you the same question,  troublesome quaker. Huh, Looks lyke you haven’t   learned your lesson. And you’ve been hittin’  the gym, I see. LIke thats gunna help you.” “I’m here to take my mother home.”

“Can’t you see me and your mum are madly in love  wiff eachother? Tryin’ to split us up, are yu?” “I’M NOT IN LOVE WITH YOU, YOU FREAK!” “You will be if I keep you locked up long  enough. It’s called Stockholm Syndrome,   love. Look it up. Works in  the fairytales all the time.”

“Dude, you’ve got some serious issues,   This is no way to treat someone you like  or love. That’s no way to treat anyone!” What a weirdo! This dog needed to be put out of  his misery. I drew my weapon and attacked Big Dog.  

I gave him everything I had! Every bit of strength  I could muster went into every hit. But he was   still too strong! I was barely making a dent.  Compared to him I was like a yappy chihuahua.   My blows were just not dealing enough damage.  Maybe he was right! Maybe I couldn’t defeat him!

Had I come all this way just to fail? Then I remembered the broken whistle in the chest. “Just because you can’t hear or see  something, doesn’t mean it isn’t working.” I pulled out the whistle and blew  it. Nothing. But that’s how it was  

Supposed to work! It was a dog  whistle! Only dogs can hear it! Big dog stopped attacking and sat politely. “Good boy, now…play dead!” I swung my sword with everything I had! Big dogs armor came flying off of him. “DON’T LOOK!” Big dog with completely hairless.  Big dog explained that he wanted  

All the feathers to help cover his naked self. “There is nothing wrong with Being  hairless, and I am sure many of us   would have donated feathers to you. But you  chose to ruin people’s lives over this. I   have had enough with your silly excuses. You  aren’t going to cage up anyone ever again!”

With that, I gladiator kicked him out his  window and down into the river of lava. On day 30 I let my mom out of the cage  and we went back to the lake house. The   ducklings were so excited to see their  mother. We all had a wonderful reunion.  

I introduced everyone to my new family.  Everyone couldn’t stop “rave” about all   the crazy adventures we had, and how great  the lake house was. We were going to live   happily ever after! No more living  in cages, Just freedom and family!
