I hope you enjoy this new story that I just now created. It's mostly about Skipper, (sorry the summary was so crummy) but there is still some of all of the penguins, Marlene, the lemurs and a bunch of the other characters in here. (plus new ones) There MIGHT be a tiny bit of Skilene stuff later on...

Prologue:
(Gnarls Barkley "Crazy" song comes on) I remember when, I remember I remember when I lost my mind...
Now it seemed almost laughable to Skipper, looking back. Not a funny sort of laugh, a bitter, cold one with no traces of humor left.
Stupid bear. Stupid bear. Stupid bear.
There was something so pleasant about that place.
There was nothing pleasant about the place Skipper was now in, not just meaning the hard wet ground that he now lay on. Alone. Everyone hated Skipper now, and Skipper hated that they hated him. He hated being an outcast, and he hated that STUPID bear. If he had ever thought that no one could drive him insane, he was wrong.
Maybe I did lose my mind... That bear! That stupid, stupid bear...
Even your emotions had an echo in so much space.
This was definately true.
And when you're out there, without care, yeah I was out of touch...
Yep. Skipper was out of touch. No one would talk to him, even if he was with them, probably ever. Not his friends, not even his own team...
But it wasn't because I didn't know enough.
I just knew too much.
Skipper was the only one who knew the truth. There was no way to tell anyone else. Don't think he hadn't tried to let it out because he had, every chance he got. Atleast the parts that were safe to tell... But everyone thought he was crazy. Crazy, and out of control. Especially after the most recent incident that had very possibly ruined his life far beyond repair.
Does that make me crazy? Does that make me crazy? Does that make me crazy?
I don't know, thought Skipper, does it?
Probably.
But it didn't matter because there was no changing things now.
