Hey, I'm Sweet Possum. This is my first Madagascar fic. Now, most of the stories I write are South Park, and that's where I get most of the reviews. Everyone loves them, and my Ice Age stories, too. But I have tried other fics for Monsters, Inc, Shark Tale, etc, a lot of people didn't review them. Actually, sometimes I never get reviews. I feel so rejected and lonely, and I give up on the story. I don't want that to happen this time because I'm really working hard on this time. So please review this.

Now I'm gonna talk about a few things before I start with the story. First of all, this is a Madagascar version of Titanic. It's based on the movie, Titanic. But instead of a romance, I'm making it a friendship, so if you hate friendship fics, please leave now. I hope some people like them now. This will also have some different twists then the actual movie, but it will still give the same hints. Also, I have never seen the second movie, so I'm not sure exactly where the characters are suppose to live now, so please spare me, I probably won't be good with where they live and stuff. But that's not really important. Besides, this is fanfiction. Ok, I hope you like. Lets get on with the story!

Part I

Chapter 1: Prolog

Bubbles went everywhere as two seals swam as fast as they could beneath the sea of the Atlantic Ocean. "What do you see?" another seal asked as he swam after the other two. As he got to his friends, he could see that they were pointing to some object. Soon he realized it looked like a stern of a ship. This sight made the marine mammals curious, so they decided to search deeper for more clues. After a while, the seals swam to the surface. "Interesting."

One day later...

It was a sunny day on the coast of Madagascar, and a door of a built hut opened quickly. "Aw," a big sigh from a tired zebra came. "What a night. I really need some water." He walked to where a watering hole was found, and got drink. He felt hot, and it made the poor animal sweat. So he dunked his whole face in the water, and quickly brought it back up. "Much better." The zebra walked off to explore when he heard some chatting. He turned around, curious of what was going on. It sounded like a party, so he walked in that direction to see what it was.

"Please, come and take a look!" a seal called, as a bunch of animals came forward.

The zebra finally arrived, and was curious of what he saw. "What's going on?" he asked himself as he stepped forward.

"We also found THIS on the boat," the seal said as he showed everyone what he had.

"A boat?" The zebra stepped even closer, and thought he heard the seal say something about a boat being under water.

"Take a look at this," the seal went on.

The zebra gasped at what he saw the seal holding up. It was a rock the size of a baseball, and it had a drawing of a fish on it. "It can't be."

"It must be very special," the seal said. "I wish that somebody here owned it. They could tell us why it was in the sunken boat."

The zebra gasped again, and ran toward the seal, asking others to let him through. "Hey, excuse me!" the striped animal called. "Excuse me!" He finally got the seal's attention. "What is it, young lad?"

"Umm..I was wondering...are you looking for who that rock belongs to?" He could feel many eyes of the other animals on him, but he ignored them.

"Well, that would be nice. Why do you ask?"

"It's mine."

The seal paused, and gave a stunned look on this face as other animals started chatting, but he asked them to leave, and had his other seal friend come over. "He said it was his," he told him.

"It IS mine," the zebra said.

"What's your name, lad?" the second seal asked.

"Marty."

"Marty, do you know where we found this rock?"

Marty was sure he heard, but maybe he was wrong. He looked in two directions, wondering what to say, but said nothing.

"We found it under water. In the middle of the Atlantic ocean."

Marty's eyes widened.

"Do you know how it got there?"

He thought about it and nodded. "I left it on the boat."

"The boat...?"

"The boat that SUNK." He knew it would give them the hint, because he over heard them talking about a sunken ship.

"Marty, would you mind answering a few questions for us?"

The seals took Marty into his hut where they could be alone. Then they handed the zebra his rock. He smiled. "Thanks. But why does this interest you?"

"Jack and I discover things. We come from North Carolina to show others what we found."

"You're from the U.S.?"

They both nodded. "What we would really like to know," Jack started, "is what happened. What's the story behind that rock?"

Marty looked down to think for a moment. "It's a big story."

"Will you tell us?"

He looked up. "Of course. But it's long."

"We want to know as much as we can."

"Alright then. If it would really help you."

They nodded.

"It was a month ago..."

Please review. I promise it gets better.
