Devotion

Headstrong

Discipline

Determination

Wisdom

And, bravery

Are what makes the perfect leader to my ancestors

Some have succeeded those goals

But, many have fallen

Into the darkness of this cruel world

For generations, my forefathers were excellent leaders

Always on top of their missions

Yet, they kept a closed mind to the emotional possibilities to deal with conflicts

Why?

They were paranoid

Such as I

My father always taught me to be paranoid

Saying that you never know who will stab your back and when

He proved this very well to me

How you ask?

Classified

None of you don't need to know my past

For the possibilities that can befall of knowing that knowledge

Nor can you understand

But, I'll tell you this

There was one animal I trusted

What happened to that animal and who?

Classified

You cannot comprehend of what went through that event anyway

My life story is full of tragedy if anything

What is my life story?

It's a story that is based on my life

That's all you need to know

But, in the present of where I stand

There is still tragedy that still befalls on me

The difference now is that my consequences and revenges from my enemies

Will create suffering to my com-rads, Zoo residents, and possibly more

How I wish I could stop the madness

But, there is nothing I can do but teach my team everything I know

The others, I can only try to protect with aid from my com-rads

There's nothing else I can do

My team must learn the skills to protect their love ones, friends, innocence, and themselves

I teach them and protect them as well

But, soon

They will be on their own

And, I'll be resting in my grave

True, I'm not old

But, I will soon die one way or another by tragedy itself

That's how my forefathers died

I still remember the death of my father

My mother was soon to follow his tragedy

My team-mates do not know my past or ever will

They need to focus on their main goal

To stay alive and keep alert

My colleagues say they won't make it

I know they're wrong

My com-rads will succeed

I'll make sure of it

For the one truly main reason

They're are my family

My brothers

And, my Amigos

I have faith in myself that I can help them reach their goal

Because I have one more quality that will put my forefathers to shame

This quality that holds in my heart is...

A/N: This is all to Skipper's fans out there! Dedicated to all fanf girls and possibly fan boys of Skipper the penguin! I hope you all like it. This poem is based on my fanfic, "Beyond The Stars". Huh, now that I think about it. All my poems are based on that fanfic...weird. Anyway, this is also a future chapter. Where Skipper reveals partly of his past and his feelings. The whole chapter won't be like that the whole time. Skipper's past breakes down through the series. Please tell me if I did anything wrong. No hard feelings what so ever, I just want you all to be honest. If I kept him out of character, please inform me and how I can do better. I want to become a better author.

Thank you for reading. ^^

I do not own Penguins of Madagascar and/or it's characters, they belong to DreamWorks Animation and Nickelodeon

I do own this poem and my fanfic, "Beyond the Stars".

Just in case, since "Beyond the Stars" is a crossover

I do not own The Lion King and/or it's characters, they belong to Disney Company and it's Corporations

Kudos! Peace out! XD
