Cliffyboy Vs. Duckman

Alright, today, I knew that Duckman would probably be back. However, I didn't expect him to show up when he did. I was just driving around in my transit bus in the afternoon, taking the people of Bumblyburp where they wanted to go, when I saw him. He was flying around as if he were looking for petty crooks that were bold enough to try something in broad daylight. Well, there aren't many of those in Bumblyburp. I found the nearest gas station, and pulled the bus over. I shouted, "I have got to go, now!" I overheard one of the people on the bus comment to another, "That's the third time this month. He should have his prostate checked." I just ignored the person and ran into the gas station so fast that I was a blurr, and when I came out on the other side, I was Cliffyboy, superhero extraordinaire.

I looked up and I saw Duckman flying right overhead. What luck! I pointed my pickle juice shooter straight at the ground, and I fired the juice out so hard that I was catapulted right into the air, and straight at Duckman. He seemed quite surprised when he noticed me shooting at him at a high rate of speed, but he weasn't quick enough to get out of my way. We collided in a loud display of pickle juice and feathers and we fell straight down to the ground with me pinning down the lame duck.

"Got ya!" I shouted.

Then Duckman looked at me with great shock. "So it was you who shot that rocket at me?"

"That was no rocket. That was me flying through the air at you."

"Can't be. That was defenitely a rocket. I have to go find the evildoer who shot it at me."

"You're staying right here Duck."

"That's Duckman, not Duck."

"Now you listen to me. This is my town. I defend this town, and I don't need your help. Go find your own town."

"But this IS my town. Can't we defend it together?"

"WHAT!? NO WAY! I'd rather be a sidekick for Superhero Bob then share this city with the likes of you!"

"Superhero who?"

"Superhero Bob."

"Who's he?"

"She."

"What?"

"Superhero Bob is a she, not a he."

"Really? Bob is a girl's name? I thought Bob was a boy's name. What until I see Bob back at the office. He'll never hear the end of that."

"No! Bob is not a girl's name...really. Well, I don't know why she calls herself that. Maybe it's a ploy to confuse her enemies. Wait a minute. You said something about 'Bob back at the office.' What office?"

"HAH! do you really think I'd tell you something like that? I might as well just tell you what my secret identity is. I'm not that dumb! If I told you my secret identity, then I'd have to tell everybody else. Then it wouldn't be a secret anymore."

"Well, OK. But if you have an office to work at, shouldn't you be there now?"

"Oh shoot! You're right. They're going to notice that I'm gone anytime now!"

"OK, well, we both have to get back to our secret identity rolls. If you want to discuss things, then meet me at the water tower at 10:00 tonight. All right?"

"OK, I'll see you there cucumber." Then he flew away.

"I'm a pickle, not a cucumber!"
