New York and PoM
Howdy! So... This is my first PoM fic. But as soon as I visited the fandom, I fell in love with Skilene and Kovat INSTANTLY. I realize this is an overused topic, but who said I cared! Anyway, Bria and Tara are REAL. Emily and Jessica... No.
Dear god, I wish I owned this show! Skilene and Kovat WOULD BE EVERYWHERE. XD
Tara, Bria, Emily and Jessica were in New York for five weeks in the summer. They all agreed that since they LOVED Penguins of Madagascar that they should see real penguins at the Central Park Zoo.
"Here they are!" Tara called, pointing towards a sign. She ran ahead of the others, her light brown hair swaying in the wind.
"Tara! Wait for us, we're excited too!" Bria called. She sighed, and ran after her best friend.
"Guess we should follow them" Emily sighed, and darted after Bria, her glasses nearly falling off in the process.
Jessica frowned, then laughed and sped forward as fast as she could.
When they were all there, Tara was grinning ear to ear.
"They look exactly like Skipper, Kowalski, and Private!" she exclaimed.
"And Rico, that one's over there trying to find more food" Jessica said, and pointed to the corner, reaching for a fish that had apparently fallen.
"Here little Rico-look-alike, I'll get your fish" Bria said. She went to the corner, and pulled a long stick off of the ground. She used it to nudge the fish towards the 'Rico-look-alike'
The penguin snatched it up, and shoveled it down his throat, causing the four girls to laugh.
"That was something Rico would do" Tara mused. Emily rolled her eyes.
"You're just being optimistic because you love Skilene" she pointed out, earning a playful glare from Tara.
"And what about you? You were optimistic for a month when you discovered Kovate!" she pointed out. The other girls laughed. But the truth was, they were all optimistic at one point or another, and still were.
"Um..." Bria started, but started to shake.
"What is it, Bria?" Jessica asked. Bria pointed to the penguins.
When they looked, Tara, Emily and Jessica saw the 'cute and cuddly' penguins going into a fighting stance. Well, almost all of them. The 'Kowalski-look-alike' pulled out a ray gun.
They wanted to run, but it seemed that their legs had failed them. They got shot with the ray gun, and were knocked out cold.
...
When they woke up, the four girls saw that the scenery had changed. They were now underneath the iceberg, in the penguins' HQ. The penguins were rifling through their purses.
"Oh my GOD" Jessica exclaimed, causing the penguins to look up.
"Hello, agents of Dr. Blowhole" one of them- probably Skipper- said.
"Dr. Blowhole! Where? Where?" Jessica exclaimed, darting her head around the room. The rest of them would have face-palmed, if they weren't restricted by ropes.
"We swear, we don't work for Dr. Blowhole. We hate him" Bria stated calmly.
"Oh really? Then how do you know our names?" Skipper asked suspiciously. He took a step forward.
Luckily, they had actually planned for something like this. Yes, they were an odd bunch.
"We're true love psychics. We can see into the lives of others" Tara explained.
"We really do like you guys. We have a club for you!" Emily said excitedly.
"A club?" another one- most likely Private- inquired.
"Yeah, and we give each other code names. They're the same as your names" Jessica informed giddily.
"Oh really?" a third one- Kowalski- asked.
"Yeah, we base them on our personalities. My code name is Skipper, because I'm the leader" Tara said proudly.
"And because you're full of yourself" Emily muttered.
"HEY!" Tara and Skipper exclaimed, while everyone else giggled.
"I'm Kowalski, because I'm the smartest" Emily said, ingoring their glares. Kowalski smirked at being called smart.
"I'm Rico, because I have a large apetite" Bria informed. Rico simply glared, shouted something only the penguins understood.
"That leaves me as Private, because I'm the youngest... but it's only by sixteen months!" Jessica said.
"You're also the most excitable" Tara mumbled. Jessica rolled her eyes.
"Well, we haven't found anything to disprove your statements, so... If you tell us what that whole 'Kovate' and 'Skilene' meant back there, you'll be free to go" Skipper stated professionally.
The girls looked at each other uncertainly. Finally, Bria spoke up.
"We're members of FanFiction, and those were abbreviations for pairings" she said, as if that would really be enough.
"Hmm, what pairings?" Kowalski asked, stepping next to Skipper.
"Erm..." the girls muttered. It wasn't Skilene they were worried about, but the Kovate would DEFINETLY freak them out.
Jessica sighed.
"Well, we won't get out of here unless we tell you, so I'll do it... Sk-Skilene is Skipper and Marlene..." she stuttered, then slammed her eyes shut and waited for the blow. It didn't come. When she opened her eyes, Skipper was standing there, beak wide open.
"And... Kovate... is Kowalski and... Private" Jessica finally said. That caused Kowalski and Private to have the same reaction as Skipper.
After ten minutes, they came back to their senses.
"Well, you told us... So I guess you can go..." Skipper said, being unusually nervous. The four girls frowned.
"Really? Aww, we thought we could hang out with you guys!" Emily pouted.
The penguins looked at each other, unsure of whether they should let these 'odd ones' stay or not. Finally, they gave in.
"Fine, how long do you have?" Skipper asked finally.
"Five weeks" Bria responded. Kowalski sighed.
"You can stay for four weeks and six days" he said as he began to untie the rope.
"Awesome!" Jessica said, grinning.
"Just wait while I go get my shrink ray" Kowalski said, walking into another room. Tara pulled out her pink iPhone.
"Hey, what is THAT!" Skipper exclaimed. Tara rolled her eyes.
"It's my iPhone. I need to call my mom and tell her that we'll be spending the rest of vacation with you guys" she said simply, as if that was the dumbest question anyone could ask.
"What about your parents?" Private asked, looking at Emily, Bria and Jessica.
"Tara's mom was the only one who's chaperoning" Jessica said.
"Tara?" Rico repeated in his odd way.
"That's my name. This is Bria, Jessica and Emily" Tara explained, gesturing to the other girls.
"Ah... Well you know our names" Skipper said.
Just then, Kowalski came back in, holding a different ray gun.
"This won't hurt a bit" he said. He shot the girls, and they shrank down to the penguins' size.
Alright, if you liked this first chapter then review! It'll make me smile, and maybe even think of a new next chapter idea faster! :D
