" Kowalski Gone MIA: Missing in Action"
Greetings and welcome to the sequel to the sequel of " To Private's Eyes". Wow. My first trequel, already? Anyways. Please enjoy. BTW: If you haven't read " The Skipper, the Marlene, and the Ups and Downs", I advise that you please read that first before reading this. Anyways. Thank-you for reading this message. Warning: Chapter may be revised, again.
Chapter 1
It was seven thirty at night at the Central Park Zoo. The penguins, Marlene, and Maddie, minus Kowalski,
were all talking amongst themselves in the HQ when someone knocked on one of the portholes from the
outside. The group quickly climbed out through the fishbowl entrance to see who it was. It was Doris the
dolphin who was holding onto the music box that Kowalski had given to her. " Kowalski's in trouble," she
rushed out in a wheezed tone.
" What kind of trouble," Skipper raised an eyebrow as he eyed her.
" My father has captured him," she uttered then held up the music box. " He was after this when Kowalski
came over to talk to me."
" He actually went over there to talk to you," Skipper widened his eyes then squinted them. " How do I
know whether or not to trust you?"
" Listen to this," Doris pressed a button on the music box. It also doubled as a voice recorder, which was
hidden on one of the ballerina's slippers.
Soon, some voices and noises could be heard in the background. " Daddy, no," a female's voice shouted. " I
won't let you have this! Kowalski made it for me and only me!"
" But Doris," a deep voice like Darth Vader's hissed. " As your father, it is my responsibility to look at these
gifts and make certain that they're not deadly, or a trap, or a death trap."
Doris scoffed. " Listen, Dr. Blowhole," she snarled. " The only reason you want this gift is so that you can
steal the plans for it and use it to wreak havoc on the universe! Well, not this time."
" Doris," a voice of an intellect male stuttered. " I wanted to talk to…"
" Kowalski," Doris gasped. " This isn't what it looks like. I swear."
" So," Dr. Blowhole cackled. " You're the famous Kowalski?"
" That depends," Kowalski stated, cautiously. " Who wants to know?"
" I wants to know," Dr. Blowhole boomed, ignoring his grammer. " So, you build inventions for Skipper, eh?"
" I'm afraid that's classified," Kowalski uttered. " So, you're Dr. Blowhole, the dolphin that's focused on
destroying the sun?"
" That's for me to know and for little old you to find out," Dr. Blowhole replied in a smug tone.
" I'm not old, I'm thirty-one," Kowalski snapped. " What are you? Sixty?"
" Okay," Dr. Blowhole rumbled. " I'm bored of this talk." Suddenly there was a loud bonking sound in the
background, along with hints of a muffled voice. Soon, the voice recorder stopped playing.
Everybody on the platform stared at the box with their mouths wide opened. " Okay," Skipper piped, slowly.
" So we can trust you, for now. But if you pull anything funny, I swear I'll…"
" I know. I know," Doris rolled her brown eyes. " You'll lock me up and throw away the key."
" I've got my eye on you," Skipper squinted his eyes.
" Look," Doris raised her voice. " Do you want Kowalski back or not?"
" We do," Skipper squeaked.
" Then follow me," Doris turned around and hopped out of the pool. " I know where my father's lair is, but
we'll need a crate and a boat to get there."
The group looked at each other then followed Doris to where the crates were. They were located in the
front of the storage shed, right next to the Zooveniers shop. The animals picked the largest one of them all
and climbed into it. Doris pulled out the paper work, wrote on it, and taped it to the outside of the crate.
The animals then waited patiently and quietly for zookeepers to haul it onto a truck, so it could be shipped
to the harbor. About a few minutes later, they felt themselves sliding around the crate as it was lifted off of
the ground. From there, they kept ramming into each other, until the crate was set down into the bed of a
truck. After the crate was set down in the bed of a truck, the animals organized themselves into a circle and
began talking.
" So," Private raised an eyebrow. " Where is your father's lair?"
" Denmark," Doris retorted, informatively. " He moved there not too long ago from the Hoboken Aquarium in
New Jersey."
" Figures he'd choose a country I can't set foot in," Skipper rolled his eyes. " Of course, it's his fault to begin
with."
" What do you mean, Skipper," Private chirped.
" I mean he framed me for a crime I did not commit, which is why I'm not allowed to set foot in Denmark,
anymore," Skipper spoke quickly. " I know, I probably should've told you this forever ago, but before I had
met any of you, I was on a mission in Denmark to stop Dr. Blowhole from blowing up the sun. You see, he
wanted to completely freeze and take over the planet. Which was insane, seeing that he could kill himself in
the process. Anyways, I located Dr. Blowhole's lair and snuck inside to find the deranged dolphin. Once I
had located him, I tried to knock him out with my flipper of death, but he flipped me over on my back before
I could attack. From there, the battle began. He swung left and I swung right. Eventually, Dr. Blowhole
began tiring out then decided to use his tail fin to swat me into the machine that he was using to blow up
the sun. It was some type of a ray gun, so the coordinates got changed easily when I rammed into it,
causing it to point directly at the city of Grena. Suddenly, without warning, Dr. Blowhole charged at me. I
jumped out of the way just in time for him to run into the machine. Unfortunately, when he ran into the
machine, he activated the ray, causing it to fire and destroy the top half of the buildings in Grena. And that's
not the worst part. After the ray was activated, Dr. Blowhole swatted his tail fin at me, again then knocked
me out. When I woke up, he and his ray gun were gone, and police dogs had arrived. I tried explaining to
the Danes what had happened, but they didn't believe me and were going to charge me for terrorism. After
that, I ran and fled the country, promising myself to never go back there. Because the next time I came
back, I knew I'd be expecting the death penalty."
"Well, that explains a lot," Private chimed as he sat between Rico and Doris.
" That's definitely different from the version my father told me," Doris raised her eyebrows. " He told me
that you knocked him out then pushed him into the machine, after he had woken up." Suddenly, the group
heard loud snoring. The group turned their heads to find Marlene leaning her head on Skipper's
right shoulder, smiling.
Skipper chuckled then wrapped one of his flippers around her shoulders. They had only been traveling for
half an hour and Marlene was already tired out. Then again, it was nighttime. Maddie, who was sitting
between Marlene and Doris, decided to squeeze in between Marlene and Skipper. " Daddy," Skipper
twitched at hearing that word come out of her mouth. It was going to take him at least a month to get used
to that. " How much longer until we get to Denmark. I'm kind of getting seasick."
" Uh, oh," Skipper's eyes widened then he held out one of his flippers. " Rico? Barf bag. Stat!" Rico, who
was sitting next to Skipper, coughed up an unused barf bag and handed it to Skipper. Skipper quickly
handed the barf bag over to Maddie, who thanked him and took it. About a couple of seconds later, she
threw up in it, folded the top of the bag, and set it down in front of her. Soon, the rancid smell from the
bag filled the air of the crate, causing it to suffocate the group. They all kept choking on it, until they
reached a dock in Esbjerg, Denmark, three days later. Once they had reached a dock in Denmark,
they kicked the crate open and dashed out of it.
" Air," Marlene gasped as she breathed in the cool, non-rancid scent. " Fresh air."
" Okay, Doris," Skipper waddled over to the dolphin, after he had stopped coughing. " Exactly where is your
father's lair around this place?"
" It's located at the Esbjerg Zoo and Aquarium," Doris stated in a stern tone. " But we'll have to be quiet
when we get there."
" Can do," Skipper nodded his head once. " So, how far is the aquarium from our current location?"

So that's why Skipper can't set foot in Denmark. Anyways. Coming up next in Chapter 2. Catch the answer to Skipper's question. Also find out how the animals plan to rescue Kowalski from Dr. Blowhole's cluthes. Please stay tuned and find out more. BTW : I'm not sure if Denmark has the death penalty or not. If not, please notify me so I can go back and fix the story. Also, sorry if I made anyone sick, by hearing Maddie get sick. I'll have you know that I did have to deal with this type of situation before. I was inside of a car at the time when a kid ate too much cotton candy and other junkfood,while at a monster truck rally. Yeah...The smell was awful and because of it, I couldn't eat anything, until the day after I got home. Luckily, I only had to deal with the stench in the car for five minutes, before it got cleaned out. LOL . Anyways. Thank-you for reading this message.
