Penguin HQ
(Skipper's POV)
An alarm blared thru the base as we rushed around. Private was looking at a scanning device, "Code Red!" Kowalski was standing by our TV which was displaying a Radar display, "Bogie incoming Skipper," Kowalski said. "It approaching at mach 1," Private said. "do we confirmation of bogie?" I said. Rico hacked up his rocket launcher and rushed to topside. "Keep me posted," I said. "It is still approaching Skipper," Kowalski said, "50 feet…49 feet…It's closing in fast…40 ft! 30 ft! 20ft!" There was a firecracker sound as the object slammed into the base. "Where's this from!" Rico shouted. "It appears the bogie is a firecracker," Kowalski said.
"Skipper we have another Code Red!" Private said. "Missile! Ka-boom! Ka-boom!" Rico shouted. I pulled out my megaphone, "I authorize you to use brute force!" I shouted. We could hear Rico cocking his weapon. I went topside to take a proper look at the bogie. "The Missile is incoming!" Kowalski shouted. "I can see that!" I shouted back with the megaphone. "Rico wait for my order," I said as the missile got closer. "Sir we should fire now!" Kowalski shouted. "nope not yet…" "We really should fire it now!" Kowalski shouted as the missile got ever closer. Rico was touching the trigger in antipation. "Wait for it…" I said waiting for the ideal position, "Wait for it…"
The Missile got to the ideal position, "Now!" I shouted. Rico fired and a missile rocketed towards the missile. The missile exploded on impact taking the enemy missile with it. "Yes!" I shouted. "we still don't know where that missile came from," Kowalski said. "Blowhole," Skipper said. "Not everything that happens to us is because of Dr. Blowhole," Kowalski said. "Dave then…Or Hans Never trust a Puffin!" "Nope it probably not Dave or Hans either as Dave is dead and Hans is currently living with Ma in Hoboken." "Oh right that crazy possum," I said, "Is it the Red Squirrel?" "Most of his plans involves acorns or pain cannons," Kowalski said, "and he's in jail right now…" "Lord Shen then," I said. "nothing on the time distortion detector," Kowalski said. "Yeah I got nothing," I said.
"then who sent the firecracker?" Private said. "There is only one person who would do that," Kowalski said. I left up my megaphone, "Ringtail explain your unauthorized fireworks display!" "Nothing to worry about Skipper penguin," Julian said, "It just part of our pre-Julianuary celebration." "THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS JULIANUARY!" "what is this month called then," Julian said. "DECEMBER!" I shouted back. "Heresay!" Julian shouted. "just what I'm not looking forward to," I said, "a whole month of King Julian Day…WHICH BY THE WAY RINGTAIL DOESN'T EXIST!" "WHAT WAS THAT!" "He said he's happy that King Julian day exists," Maurice said. 'the hypocrite," Julian whispered.
"as long as he doesn't force us to celebrate it," Kowalski said. "Yeah he still thinks theres a Mauarding red night goblin," I said. "that because there is!" Julian said. "Mauarding Red Night Goblin!" I shouted. "Where!" Julian said, "hey it's not pick on the king day!" "April fools," I said. "Yeah I guess I had that coming," Julian said, "I learned my lession I'm going to do april fools on april fools day…I promise!" "Now if there are no more…" "I like to move it move it blared thru the zoo. "Urgh he knows I hate that song!" I muttered. "Turn that down Julian!" Darla shouted don't make me take your groove away again…"
"I already apologized for that!" Julian shouted. "That's not how apologizes work honey!" darla replied. "Oh go back to texas already!" "Oh now you done it!" Darla said, "You won't when and you don't know where but one day you will pay for that…because nobody messes with texas nobody!" "That what I said!" The Amarillo kid shouted. Private grabbed the megaphone from my flippers, "What are you doing here kid!" "What! Someone just insulted Texas…I can't just stand by and let someone insult texas like that Mr. tux!" "I thought I told you to stop doing bad stuff!" Private shouted. "sorry," he replied as he bounced away. "Kowalski remind me not to help Julian whenever he feels the wrath of backwards magic," I said. "I do I have a feeling Julianuary is not going anywhere," Kowalski said. "We will put an end to it if we need to," I said, "but I don't think it will get too out of hand…"
