"Run Sasha! Run!" my father shouted at me
as we ran to get to the boat. bullets
zoomed past my head and screaming could be
heard in the distance. human's had come to
our peaceful home of the Antartic and were
shooting everyone of us left and right.
some one had found an abandoned boat that
the humans had left behind and that was
where the ones left alive were heading to
hide. Papa and i were the only ones left
of our family, Mama, sister and brother
gone. looking to my left i saw one of my
best friends, Sean, laying in the snow
in a pool of red liquid. "Papa! it's Sean,
we have to help him!" Papa shook his head
and pulled at my flipper. "it is to late
for him Sasha! we must get to the boat!"
as we pasted Sean's body, i looked ahead
of us and saw the large ship. many other
penguins were trying to get in but the
doors were closed and the windows were to
high up. as Papa fought his way to the ship
i looked behind me to see a large group of
humans come near us with their loud boom
sticks that breathed fire. "Papa! the
Humans!" Papa turned around and he looked
worried. "Sasha get on my shoulders!"
as Papa lifted me up i was soon tall
enough to reach the open window. then
Papa pushed me up and i was sent into the
open window. landing on a shelf near the
window, i saw that no one else was in here
but me. rushing back to the window, i
looked out and saw that Papa was smiling
happily. "Papa, come on! get in!" but Papa
shook his head. "no Sasha my boy. i can
not." i didn't like what he was saying,
i started to scream at him to get in here
but he just stood there. then a older
penguin went over to him and she looked
frightened. "please, help me! i don't want
my baby to die!" Papa looked her over
and nodded. as he lifted up the girl, i
saw that she was now high enough to get in.
"Sasha, help her in!" nodding i took her
flipper in mine and helped her in. once in
i turned back to papa holding out my own
flipper. "Miss, please take care of him
for me!" the girl came up to the window
and nodded. "No Papa! come on you can make
it!" but he he again shook his head.
then the humans came up to the group of
penguins and let loose their fire bullets.
"NO PAPA!" the girl took me in her flippers
and took me away from the window. "get
away, you don't need to see this!" "NO, we
have to save Papa!" but she shut the
window, "we can't! he's gone!" i could feel
tears starting to come out of my eyes.
i had just lost my whole family, i was now
all alone. as the girl hug me i let the
tears fall down on her feather. "it's okay.
it's okay." but she was wrong, how could
things be okay if my family was dead.
as i listened to the screams outside the
ship i felt a jerk in the ship and we fell
to the floor. "what's happening!" i asked
the girl and she looked frightened. "the
ship, it's moving!" as the ship moved, the
screams of my fellow penguins died down and
soon i heard nothing. silence was all that
i heard but my mind was screaming and
hollering knowing that i had no family to
call my own.
